Topics: Entertainment News
Last night, I began my annual forced viewing of the Grammy telecast with a thesis: that the past year was one of those rare blips in musical time where what's popular and what's good actually intersect. Just before the telecast, I looked at the nominee list to see if this would actually bear out. Kanye West, check. Green Day, check. Franz Ferdinand, check. Modest Mouse, Loretta Lynn and Jack White, Alicia Keys, check, check, check.
As always, the Grammy selection committee tortured us with some duds. Hoobastank? Melissa Etheridge, no, Tim McGraw, no as always, y pienso que Los Lonely Boys son overrated. And then there were the usual safe nominations for dead guys. It doesn't exactly take a lot of guts to toss a Grammy to Ray Charles or Johnny Cash now. Plus, shouldn't a song be exempted from Grammy consideration after it's been used as a theme for the NBA Playoffs? I'm looking at you, Black Eyed Peas.
But a closer examination of the list dampened my raging cynicism. Tom Waits, Jill Scott, the Scissor Sisters? Got a Grammy nomination? But I saw the Scissor Sisters live two years ago! I'd never seen a live band before they received a Grammy nomination. Who cares whether I liked them or not? My thesis was holding water! I had no idea, though, that I was about to watch one of the most entertaining musical events in television history.
What you're about to read was written in real time, edited slightly for coherence, and partially drained of hipster pretension. No TiVo was deployed in compiling this report. All times are Central Standard. It's 6:55 p.m. Let's get it started in here!
7:00 p.m.
Queen Latifah appears and informs us that there are four stages and five bands, and this is just the opening number. Why look! It's the Black Eyed Peas, singing the LeBron James highlight-film theme song. Is this our new national anthem? Before I can get a chance to write down another basketball joke, there's Gwen Stefani, wearing what remains of Kevin Kline's outfit from "The Pirates Of Penzance." Goddamn, that woman's got gams! She's accompanied by Eve, who looks like Whitney Houston version 2.0. Hot Asian girls, also kind of dressed like pirates, surround them. Why am I not TiVoing this? Oh, that's right. I don't have TiVo. But if I did, this segment would scream late-night freeze-frame!
Band No. 4 is the mysterious Maroon 5 with that song I hear all the time at the gym. Catchy! The lead singer looks like Keanu Reeves and the keyboardist looks like a PIRG canvasser. They won't be around next year. Uh-oh. The Black Eyed Peas are singing and Maroon 5 is playing, followed by Franz Ferdinand, a better band. Suddenly everyone is singing and playing at the same. Despite what the New York Times said this morning, it's not a mash-up. It's more like the finale of "Les Miz," with guitars and break dancing.
Ellen DeGeneres seems to like it, because she dances to her own tune. Still, if this is the sound of today, then my thesis is holding. Also, the lead singer of Black Eyed Peas will be making a special appearance this Friday on "Joan of Arcadia," playing a substitute gym coach who teaches Joan the importance of running a decent song into the ground.
7:15 p.m.
Queen Latifah informs us that tonight is the 50th birthday of rock 'n' roll, but then proceeds to not elaborate. I think she was trying to toss props to Little Richard, an act of amateur ethnomusicography that probably raised Greil Marcus' hackles. She also makes a saucy joke about how she went to Bono's dressing room and says that Bono is looking "adorable." The thought of Queen Latifah in Bono's dressing room makes me feel empty inside.
7:18 p.m.
Steven Tyler pays lip service to the great piano player Pinetop Perkins, who's in the audience looking leathery and wearing a cowboy hat, no doubt thinking, Boy, I was living in a garage in Mississippi while you were doinking Bebe Buell upstairs at the Mudd Club. Where the hell were you then? Then Los Lonely Boys win an award, and Perkins rolls over in his future grave.
7:25 p.m.
Another lip service, this one for jazz great Art Blakey. But at least they follow him with Alicia Keys, a person so far out of my league that I don't even deserve to be in the same room as her discarded wisdom teeth. She sings to great effect. Then Jamie Foxx shows up to lay down the yellow brick for his Oscar. He does a remarkably hip "Georgia on My Mind" duet with the new woman of my dreams. I briefly want to consider this annoying, but then again, try to imagine Adrien Brody or Roberto Benigni pulling it off.
7:40 p.m.
Jerry Lee Lewis gets a Grammy lifetime achievement award. Jerry Lee is sitting in the audience, looking like he could still bite the head off a rat. "Rock 'n' roll has its fathers, and here are its sons," says Queen Latifah. That means U2. Bono says that his father was a postman with a beautiful tenor voice, and he would like to think he passed that voice on to Bono. Jerry Lee Lewis thinks, I busted my ass for this?
7:46 p.m. There's lot of lifetime achievement tonight, probably too much, as Led Zeppelin gets a lifetime achievement award. In a case of reverse irony, Green Day wins best rock album immediately after. They're a band far better than Zeppelin, though the sex to their music goes at a much less seductive pace. Those Green Day guys worked damn hard; they deserve it. In the audience, Cyndi Lauper appears pleased.
7:55 p.m.
Queen Latifah informs us that tomorrow morning, "everyone will be talking about the next 15 minutes." Everyone who didn't watch "Desperate Housewives" or the Pro Bowl, that is. It looks like the unstoppable conversation express is being led by the world performance debut of the world's most passionate husband and wife, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony!
He stands at a purple-lit window that fronts a set on loan from Home Depot. The set parts to reveal J.Lo, wearing a lime-green curtain held together by long strips of silver and gold glitter. She's in what appears to be the honeymoon suite at the world's cheesiest boutique hotel. There's a reason these two haven't sung together in public before. It's because Marc Anthony is humiliatingly better than Jennifer Lopez. At least with Ben Affleck, it was an even match of talentlessness; the equivalent to J.Lo performing with Marc Anthony would be Affleck hitching his wagon to Frances McDormand. I think J.Lo's handlers assume that we'll take the spiciness of their love for granted because they're Latin, but those of us who have truly felt passion cannot be deceived! They walk around the hotel room in what is supposed to be a dance of seduction, but they don't even really acknowledge each other's presence. Mike Wallace and Morley Safer have more sexual chemistry onstage than J.Lo and Marc Anthony.
Following that atrocity of God, Matthew McConaughey, a man once arrested in my home city of Austin, Texas, for streaking, shows up and makes a convincing case for how Southern rock is still alive and well and also rockin'. As an avatar of this truth, Gretchen Wilson and Lynrd Skynrd appear and sing "Freebird." In their hands, rock's biggest clichi sounds like "I Will Always Love You." Now, I'm not a Southerner by birth, nor was I born to be a rocker. But I know quite a few Southern rockers down here who would take exception at such a flimsy portrayal of down-home virtues. What a goddamn embarrassment.
Keith Urban and Elvin Bishop follow with an acceptable version of "I Fooled Around and Fell in Love," but the mood has already been ruined. Dickie Betts, whose name was, I shamefully admit, new to me, performs "Ramblin' Man." Tim McGraw shows up for duet purposes, and, as always, ruins the song. He was no more born in the back seat of a Greyhound bus than I was born in a rice paddy.
Then Skynrd — Skynrd, Whoooooooo! –returns for a version of "Sweet Home Alabama" that legitimately rocks but is marred by McGraw and by Gretchen Wilson, who sounds like Britney Spears singing with Aerosmith at the Super Bowl.
8:16 p.m.
Queen Latifah gets to sing, an honor usually reserved among award-show hosts for Billy Crystal. But instead of going, Rwanda! How I love ya, how I love ya, my dear Rwanda! as Crystal would do but Chris Rock probably won't, the Queen fills out a black dress, wears a string of pearls just right, and sings a pretty damn convincing medley of '40s jazz diva tunes. You know, just when you think someone totally sucks, she goes ahead and does something like this. She deserves a Grammy merely for making people think of Dinah Washington at all.
Tyra Banks and Hoobastank follow, offering a lifetime Grammy to the late conductor Morton Gould, an act so deeply ironic that it defies further comment. Maroon 5 then beat Kanye West for best new artist, who hugs the band very sincerely, and Maroon 5 practically offer the award to him. Kanye West is smooth. The lead singer of Maroon 5 says, "These guys are my best friends, and this is the trippiest thing I've ever gone through in my life."
8:30 p.m.
Quentin Tarantino says that Green Day has released a concept album with a unique concept: "All the songs are good." Call me naive, but I can't even begin to say how much I admire these guys. Not every band that works hard gets successful for the right reasons, but it's nice to see it happen at least once.
8:35 p.m.
I notice that Crucial, from Alicia Keys' band, is wearing a really stylish brown fedora-like hat. Oh, please, make it acceptable for white people to dress like that again! If there are a million universes, perhaps in one of them, I am Alicia Keys' kept potentate. A boy can dream.
8:43 p.m.
The Staples Singers win a lifetime Grammy, and then Mavis Staples actually gets to come out and sing. Meanwhile, Pinetop Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis are shooting heroin in the bathroom of the nominees' lounge, wondering where it all went wrong. Suddenly, things take a turn for the iconographic.
A preacher rails against sin in front of a sizable congregation of middle-aged black people, who are backed by a church set with authentically beautiful mocked-up stained-glass windows. Kanye West runs down the aisle, doing "Jesus Walks." He dances himself into a passion play with Mavis Staples. A curtain drops. Kanye dances in silhouette with increasing drama, until we see a video image of a dove flying away into an exploding sunset. The curtain rises, and the Blind Boys Of Alabama are in the church, singing over a coffin. Kanye returns, wearing an all-white suit. He then rises above the crowd wearing angel's wings. I guess it's too much to ask that one of these things totally transcend ego. West's acceptance speech follows form, ending with him holding up his award and saying, "Everybody wanted to know what I'd do if I didn't win. I guess we'll never know."
The Grammys are really entertaining this year.
9:00 p.m.
Kris Kristofferson, who got a lifetime achievement nod himself at the Country Music Association Awards, presents a lifetime achievement award to Janis Joplin. Are you meaning to tell me that Janis Joplin doesn't have a lifetime Grammy yet? Austin is insulted, sirs! And we're further insulted that Joss Stone gets to perform the tribute. Nice dress, 6-foot Joss, but Janis never wore that much makeup on every day of her life combined! Actually, I have no idea how much makeup Janis Joplin wore. But the tribute was still a little off.
9:11 p.m.
Eddy Arnold gets his lifetime achievement recognition from Billy Bob Thornton, who then introduces Tim McGraw to sing a song. Hmm. Bad Santa considers Tim McGraw "a good friend." Perhaps I should reexamine my opinion of Tim McGraw. Nope. I'm sorry, call me an indie snob if you want, but Tim McGraw is just a country version of "Tuesdays With Morrie." The song, "Live Like You Were Dying," is about a man who gets bad news from his doctor, but doesn't let that stop him from going out and doing adventure sports.
Tim McGraw, how many of your fans can afford to go sky-diving or Rocky Mountain climbing? How many of them even have health insurance? If I found out I were dying, I'd fall into a sobbing heap for about two days, which is what most people would do, and then I'd start figuring out a way to use my sympathetic status so I could sit on the Phoenix Suns bench during the playoffs. Skiing wouldn't be high on my priority list.
Hallelujah! The Good Lord rains justice down from the heavens as Loretta Lynn defeats Tim McGraw for best country vocal. Ms. Lynn takes the stage with power, grace and class, sucking any lingering stupidity out of the room. Jack White, growing nicely into his Johnny Depp phase, plays the polite young man role to the hilt. He says, "We recorded this record on Loretta's front porch, and one day she told me, 'Jack, 14 times my record got banned from country radio, and every one of those records went to No. 1. Well, this record got ignored by country radio as well. And look who's No. 1!'"
Rarely has an award winner satisfied me more.
9:26 p.m.
Rob Thomas, who doesn't owe his career to Ahmet Ertegun, announces that the founder of Atlantic Records has won First President's History of Greatness Award or something, Too little, too late. Still, it's nice to know that a native Turk can receive a major award on American television.
9:30 p.m.
U2 wins an award. Bono says this is "the best Grammys I've ever seen." And he's right! It feels like the moment when the music business has finally matured; culture has met commerce at the crossroads, and they've shaken hands in friendship. Everyone seems to respect everyone else, they're feeding off one another's energy, and we're all enriched. We'd better enjoy it. Next year it could easily be Christina Aguilera paying tribute to Billie Holliday, Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey singing the songs of Kenny and Dolly, and J.Lo doing a forbidden, fully synthesized dance with her new husband, Colin Farrell.
But for this brief moment, the mainstream rules, and this is before the James Brown dance duet with Usher! As Steven Tyler, Billie Joe Armstrong, Norah Jones, Alison Krauss, Bono, Alicia Keys and others perform an absolutely magnificent cover of "Across the Universe," with all proceeds going to tsunami victim relief and a harmonica solo from Stevie Wonder, for god's sake, I have a rare flash of optimism, thinking that music really is going to change the world this time. As soon as they stop giving solos to Tim McGraw.

Series 70's were great guns. When the Series 80's came out they had a different feel to the trigger. Is this your personal firearm? If so, you're a lucky guy. If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man. (Mark Twain).

Hi kmatt2, I have been on Coumadin for over 8 years now and have heard of none. I have also chack with my Hematologist and they haven't heard of any. As far as the class action suits, so far so good, none that I have been able to find but I am in the middle of checking it out even more, this is a very important question and I would like to be on the money with this one to answer fully for you, but as of right now nothing bad is coming up. Coumadin is a very good drug and has saved my life I know that and also has saved many others from life-threatening blood clots. It is a very tricky drug sometimes to manage but it can be done I'm living proof of that. Hope this little bit of info helps answer your question, there will be more on the way if I find out any more o.k.. marjorie zych

Nice, Bill! With my recent success of swinging streamers, I have been reading quite a bit about techniques and such. I had read about swinging a nymph but it just seemed so out of the ordinary from what the rules of nymphing teach you - drag free! The idea of swinging just sounded preposterous. Glad to see that it really works!

When I hear "swing", I think of soft hackles. Do you throw those? I'm a fan of the zebra midge 18-20 all year long. If things slow down, it usually will catch a fish. They are are staple of a fishes diet... Good call and nice going!

I haven't use the swing cast with a soft hackle; the beadhead seal leech is the only fly I swing cast. The Zebra midge is by far my favorite of all the midges. Thanks for the comment - April 11, 2014 at 8:46 PM

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama won re-election Tuesday night despite a fierce challenge from Republican Mitt Romney as well as the weak economy and high unemployment that encumbered his first term and crimped the middle class dreams of millions.
"This happened because of you. Thank you" Obama tweeted to supporters' as he secured four more years in the White House.
The president sealed his victory in Ohio, Iowa, New Hampshire and Colorado, four of the nine battleground states where the two rivals and their allies spent nearly $1 billion on dueling television commercials.
Ultimately, the result of the brawl of an election campaign appeared likely to be the political status quo. Democrats won two more years of control of the Senate, and Republicans were on track to do likewise in the House.
Romney was in Massachusetts, his long and grueling bid for the presidency at an unsuccessful end.

Image Number 10 for
United States Patent #7659178
Semiconductor device structures with reduced junction capacitance and drain induced barrier lowering, methods for fabricating such device structures, and methods for forming a semiconductor-on-insulator substrate. The semiconductor structure comprises a semiconductor layer and a dielectric layer disposed between the semiconductor layer and the substrate. The dielectric layer includes a first dielectric region with a first dielectric constant and a second dielectric region with a second dielectric constant that is greater than the first dielectric constant. In one embodiment, the dielectric constant of the first dielectric region may be less than about 3.9 and the dielectric constant of the second dielectric region may be greater than about ten (10). The semiconductor-on-insulator substrate comprises a semiconductor layer separated from a bulk layer by an insulator layer of a high-dielectric constant material. The fabrication methods comprise modifying a region of the dielectric layer to have a lower dielectric constant.

EuropeNeighbours' debt crisis worries Finland Country with AAA rating resents future possibility of bailing out embattled eurozone countries. 26 Oct 2012 23:14 GMT | Europe, Finland Finland is the only AAA-rated European country with an economy that is on the rise. Growth is up by a third and exports are booming, while other European countries such as Greece and Spain are struggling to stay afloat. The nation fears the price of its success could mean funding bailouts for its eurozone neighbours.

PlanetSolar, described as the largest solar-powered boat ever built, has entered the sea armed with high-tech photovoltaic modules and high-performance marine coatings supplied by DuPont Co. Inc.
DuPont said it supplied advanced photovoltaic modules and high-performance marine coatings for the vessel, which was officially launched March 31 in the Baltic Sea. The boat is undergoing test operations before being transferred to the Mediterranean Sea, in preparation for a global-circumnavigation cruise in 2011.
PlanetSolar, 31 meters long and 15 meters wide, is covered by 500 square meters of photovoltaic solar panels that power an electric motor. The solar-powered world tour will demonstrate that renewable energy and technology can contribute to the goal of sustainable transportation, DuPont said in an announcement on its role in the project.
"Using technology and our knowledge to improve our energy efficiency and promote renewable energies is the path toward a lasting world," said Raphael Domjan, founder and skipper of the PlanetSolar project. "PlanetSolar wants to show that solutions exist."
The vessel's 1,300-square-meter external surface and the entire interior area, including the cockpit, have been painted with high-performance DuPont Marine coatings. The cockpit was painted with DuPont ™ PercoTop® 449, a polyurethane topcoat system, while the external structure was painted with DuPont ™ Imron® Marine, a polyurethane designed to deliver a combination of appearance, durability, and eye-catching color characteristics. The materials are specifically formulated for marine conditions, where UV-resistant and highly durable coatings are essential for the long-lasting performance of ships and boats.
The PlanetSolar project, launched two years ago, is described as an international venture that involves the contributions of a team of physicists, engineers, boat builders, and environmental-protection specialists, according to the PlanetSolar website (www.planetsolar.org).
"PlanetSolar is more than a solar boat. It is the very concrete demonstration of how science and technology can transform the sun's potential into clean energy," said Ian Hudson, president, DuPont Europe, Middle East & Africa. "This project showcases solutions that help raise mainstream awareness of sustainable alternatives in the transportation industry. We are very proud to be part of this project."
The photovoltaic modules used to power the boat will be exposed to a harsh marine environment, and the full range of materials that make up the solar modules must be highly durable, DuPont said. DuPont™ Tedlar® polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) film, used as a component of the photovoltaic backsheet, plays a key part in protecting modules, the company said.
DuPont said the generation and storage of renewable energy is expected to be the fastest-growing segment of the energy market for the next 20 years. The company said it is projecting that its global sales in the photovoltaic sector could exceed $1 billion by 2012. DuPont's Photovoltaic Solutions business is a major technology supplier to the photovoltaic industry, with more than 25 years of experience in photovoltaic materials development and a portfolio of materials and technology solutions designed to increase the efficiency and lifetime of photovoltaic modules.

Envisioning Dale Earnhardt Jr. as 2013 Sprint Cup Champ
Sure, there's been success at times, particularly during his lengthy stint with the team that his late father founded.
Full StoryComments

Dec 24, 2012
Really? Here's what I envision in 2013: by April, after failing to crack the top 20 in the first 6 races of the Sprint Cup schedule, Steve Letarte is testing with Steve Wallace, hoping for some meaningful feedback on the new car.
Dec 25, 2012
The only thing he will get out of Steve Wallace is a temper fit. The feedback he gave while driving for his father closed the entire operation. Did you notice no one showed enough interest in him to give him any kind of a ride. Hope your having a Merry Xmas. |
Cambridge, Canada |
Dec 26, 2012
The feedback which JR. relays to his crew chief must not be to great either. How else do you explain why the chosen one has yet to contend for the championship. |
Dec 26, 2012
No one will even care what is going on in A$$CAR in 2013, much like 2012. One things for sure, Fat Helton will continue to get larger and the A$$CAR audience will continue to get smaller.
Dec 26, 2012
Not the same as angry head Wallace. At least Junior has a ride.He is not the only one who has not had a championship what about Marky Martin? |
Dec 26, 2012
Snow, Why pic on Mark Martin? He is one of the kindest and most liked persons in nascar? Jr has a ride only because of the last name...
Dec 27, 2012
Stupid shut up You cannot spell sh$$.If you had any brains you would be in school. |
Dec 27, 2012
He has the most fans of any driver regardless of what his name is. He will always have a ride. If Marky was so hot why did Hendrick replace him? |
Dec 28, 2012
The Jr Earnhardt BS is starting already; no wonder real fans are turning off NASCAR by the millions!
Dec 28, 2012
Who cares turn it off. That will give you more time to do something else.I have sure had enough of Brad K and his big mouth. Will Brad get to run in the shoot out? I hope him and Clint both get to watch from the sideline. |
Dec 28, 2012
Snow could you be a little more specific? |
Dec 28, 2012
You had said real nascar fans was turning it off so thats why I said do it. |
Since: Nov 09 571 |
Dec 28, 2012
Correct. Everyone take note: the greatest measure of a stock car driver's talent is how many fans he has. Period. |
Dec 29, 2012
If the NFL was run like NASCAR, Joe Montana would still be a starting quarterback. |
Dec 29, 2012
Snow, Did you ever stop to think how old Mark. M is? Jr is just an Earnhardt. And just a NAME! Last names don't win races. |
Dec 29, 2012
...and the immaculate reception would have been yellow-flagged due to debris on the field. |
Dec 29, 2012
Old people don't win to many race either. |
Dec 29, 2012
Looks like jr's down to one fan on this site.
Since: Nov 09 571 |
Dec 29, 2012
Wins with Hendrick Motor Sports: MM 5 Jr 2 Wins since 30th Birthday: MM 40 Jr 5 |
Dec 30, 2012
Hilton Head, I sure hope Jr. doesn't read @ this site, & see he only has one fan here. Whoa, this will surely have him shaking in his race shoes to the point poor thing won't be able to stand in for the fear. How in the world , will he be able to drive now?
I'm so hoping & praying, my driver won't see this site. This site could be the end of Jr. poor thing, how sad. |

Dr. Rock & Latin Rock Inc present
Tony Lindsay, lead singer for Santana
Soulful Obsession, with Special Guest Tom Politzer
Club Fox
2209 Broadway Street
Redwood City, CA, 94063
Doors 7:00 PM / Show 8:00 PM
This event is 21 and over
After 20 years as the lead vocalist for Santana, Tony Lindsay has garnered 11 Grammy awards, traveled on several world tours and recorded on seven CDs: Milagro (1992), Supernatural (1999), Shaman (2002), Ceremony (2003) and Food for Thought (2004), Ultimate Santana (2007) and Multi-Dimensional Warrior (2008). Their current tour involves Santana's First Rock Residency: an exclusive two-year deal for 36 shows with AEG at the Las Vegas Hard Rock Hotel and Casino's concert hall "The Joint," which began May 27, 2009. When not on tour with Santana, Lindsay performs at various local venues and festivals and in between tours he is currently recording his fourth Solo CD.
What began as a simple karaoke night out with friends at 7 Bamboo Lounge in San Jose Downtown soon led to the coming of Bay Area's liveliest and most eclectic hip-hop/soul/r&b group, Soulful Obsession. Lily Tran, Bennett Roth-Newell, Veno Bender, and Kosuke Okamura officially formed the band "Soulful Obsession" in the summer of August 2011 at San Jose State University. These four multi-talented individuals unleash their artistic creative abilities by collectively writing and producing all of their original songs.
On-the-rise in the thriving Silicon Valley, Soulful Obsession skillfully blends together a diverse range of sounds influenced by both classic artists like: Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Bill Withers, Etta James, and Ella Fitzgerald with modern-day artists like: Amy Winehouse, John Legend, Beyonce, Jamie Cullum, Lauryn Hill, Robin Thicke and The Roots.
with Special Guest Tom Politzer
Tom Politzer is a world renowned saxophone player, long time member of the legendary soul orchestra Tower Of Power, and a seasoned recording artist. Tom E. Politzer is TOP's lead tenor sax player. Tommy fills that role totally, not only as an outstanding soloist, but also as a part of the five piece Tower of Power horn section.
Born in Detroit and raised in Palo Alto, California, Tom contributes to the band's complex sound with his first tenor sax, alto sax, flute, and clarinet. Tom's musical background and his switch from playing the clarinet to the baritone sax chair (inspired, in part, by Tower of Power's "Squib Cakes"), set the stage for him to become the professional musician he is today.

Recent reports of widespread abuse and neglect at California assisted living facilities have prompted calls for better state oversight of community care facilities. Assemblyman Ian Calderon says his bill would help the state spot trouble early.
"There are a lot of facilities that will get licensed and nobody will come by for five years to do an inspection and so they might be in violation of some laws, but they just don't know it," says Calderon. "And so this will also aid in catching a problem early and keep it from growing into a bigger problem."
About a decade ago, the Department of Social Service's budget was cut by about five million dollars a year. Mandatory surprise inspections at assisted living, foster care and other facilities soon went way down.
The California Assisted Living Association says it endorses Calderon's bill.
A legislative committee will take up the measure in the next few weeks.

Where can I buy small packages of peat moss or any grow.media
qjtrinhApril 5, 2007
Hi All,
Was wondering if any companies/wholesalers sell individually packaged (for 1 small pot) growing media and/or flower seeds?
I'm looking into selling small growing pots that will come with these individually packaged growing media and seeds.
Something like this sounds like it'd have to be custom made... if that's the case, any company names you could tell me would be awesome :)
Please help, thanks in advance!
I think you can get the small packages at garden centres. I've seen them at Bradford Garden Gallery. I did see that Lee Valley is now selling small wafer size bricks of it. Apparently you just mix it with water and it expands - just like the peat moss bricks. I think they were around $6. Marg
