Rescue Pets of the Week: Kittens Alex and Norm

Brothers Alex and Norm were two of a litter of five and are just 5 months old.

Brothers Alex and Norm were two of a litter of five born to a feral mom under a backyard deck in South Los Angeles.

After several weeks of fostering at the home of a caring volunteer, they came to Friends of Animals Foundation where they await their turn at adoption.

About 5 months old, Alex has a gorgeous, thick, soft, grey coat, while Norm sports a black-and-tan marbled coat with white markings on his face. A little shy at first, the boys have blossomed into very sweet, very playful kittens.

If you’d like to see these loving brothers, please call 310-479-5089 or email frndsofanimals@aol.com

Maybe more to the point, where does the methane (way more powerful than CO2 as a greenhouse gas)Read More release go from the fracking process, where do the "secret"and other cancer causing chemicals go, and who pays for clean-up costs, increased healthcare costs of residents nearby, possible increased earthquake damage, etc. and where does this oil go (we can't use it--too dirty--so probably China)?

As I understand it, fracking wells "dry up" fairly quickly, which is why pressure to keepRead More drilling so urgent. Where do the jobs go after a year or so? Just a thought....

Mr. Rose: You say that "all users of the road must stop at Stop signs, yield for pedestriansRead More and should show common courtesy." But, as President/CEO of the Culver City Chamber of Commerce, you didn't write a big piece in the Patch complaining about drivers who fail to come to a complete stop at stop signs, did you? You didn't write to complain about drivers who fail to use their turn signals, or drivers who talk and text while driving, did you? Your initial letter was the equivalent of a tirade about "women drivers" or "Asian drivers." As a customer who has the choice of patronizing businesses in Culver City or businesses a block or two away in Los Angeles, you just made my choice a whole lot easier.

- "why don't bikes stop at stop signs" - First, because the general hostility to bikes byRead More road designers, law enforcement, etc. have helped to produce a culture where many cyclists feel like they are outlaws just by being on a bike who have to take the situation into their own hands, thus, petty infractions like running stops just don't seems to be a big deal. Two, because the law is rarely enforced because even the cops generally get that a bike going through a stop sign rarely poses a threat to anyone except the cyclist, three because people ride bikes and just like the people that drive cars, they tend to roll through signs when it seems relatively safe. - "why don't we tax cyclists..." - because they already pay taxes like everyone else. If you think the few bucks you pay once a year to register your car and a couple pennies of gas tax actually pay for the roads, you are badly misinformed. If you're going to make snarky, condescending comments, at least admit to them. Don't hide behind "I'm just worried about cyclists' safety" BS.

Thank you for the clarification. But I have to say you pretty much just reiterated thatRead More non-controversial points from your earlier letter in a less contemptuous tone while ignoring all the actually misleading, inaccurate, and offensive stuff you wrote before. Although you tried to phrase everything in the standard "I'm just asking questions" cop out technique, it's pretty clear the claims you were making. - "Will my insurance rates go up" - Well they might if you keep hitting, maiming, and killing people because you refuse to treat piloting 2 tons of steel as if it had any responsibilities. - "why can a bicyclist ride on a street, sidewalk, etc." - because we've spent the last couple generations making sure that streets are designed with no one in mind except cars. Although we've accepted this in general, it is still generally realized that many people will not or can not ride in the rode for safety reasons (i.e. kids), so we've allowed bike to go on sidewalks as well in the mistaken assumption that this is safer. - "should bicyclists stop in front of cars" - yes, when the street conditions make it appropriate.
