I am going to say slimy,
Alert: Oil slick off the coast of Santa Barbara, rich white republicans up in arms, they had a deal, no drilling oil off their shores.

He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security.
Your representative owes you, not his industry only, but his judgment; and he betrays instead of serving you if he sacrifices it to your opinion.

Just in, some of the stars that live in Beverly Hills said they are leaving until things get back to normal (a relative term) heading to her other home in the south of France, but was heart broken that she will miss the 39th year get together she was so looking forward to going, she said. "the canyon is always so pretty in May, everything in bloom.
Of course she was talking about
Topanga or not Topanga? It's the 39th year for the tie-dyed, groovy gathering that is Topanga Days. Topanga Canyon may not be the hippie haven it used to be, but that doesn't stop its residents from breaking out the incense and Hula-hoops for three days of bands, beer, Hacky Sacking and arts & crap. The canyon setting is ideal (the parking not so much), and the high-flying freak-flag parade on Monday morning is a tradition not to be missed. The Young Dubliners, Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk, Fishbone, Chevy Metal, Pato Banton, the Paul Chesne Band and loads more bands of the ilk that make you want to paint your face and dance barefoot are on the bill. Adding to the old-timeyness between acts are corny games like an egg toss and sack race and even a baby derby, which may send you into an overdose of cuteness and sunburn. 1440 N.

Re: Chicken Little Alert
Part of my family use to live in Topanga Canyon. Early seventies.
It is a one of a kind place. The geology helps.
Amazingly, isolationist gun nuts and hippies do get along as neighbors.
I guess they both don't like <doom> The Federals <Darth Vader breathing>
They don't have the political friction like the hippies and lumbar jacks in Eureka, Humboldt County although they generally live in peaceful coexistence too. Wide open 'nature' spaces probably help peace.
Our back wood Topanga like place, "Cook's Corner" use to be a watering hole in the out back. Lots of bikers, peaceful ones but all in garb, would go there.

Suburban sprawl moved in. Too damned civilized. The stop sign replaced by a traffic light when they widened the two lanes to four plus left turn lanes. And they have their own web page.

Re: Chicken Little Alert
It's Sequestergeddon
The Mayans were only off by a few months.
Yesterday Obama said we might not notice for two or three weeks, or even a month, or ...
Be sure someone in the White House is working to find the most painful cuts possible. Woodward, despite Democrat bluster and vindictiveness, has established that sequestration was Obama's idea.
Have you noticed Obama's new political strategy? He strives to avoid responsibility for anything, unless it's an unambiguous plus. Not just on sequestration, but on everything for a long time now. Controversy leads Obama to position himself as a bemused and frustrated observer of what others do - as if he were Everyman and not the President. This is unprecedented among Presidents, so far as I know. Like the pilot of a jetliner who sits in Tourist and gripes that the plane isn't flying well.
If this was true Bob, why did congress leave for a three day weekend, surly not from over work, I listened to the president today at a press conference, he has put out a plan that nobody will like every part of, but the republicans ran like hell blaming the president and democrats that they have not put forth a plan, well where is the republican plan, they have not put one forth either from that point of view, look this is down to a playground fight, name calling and spitting on each other. So let the cuts begin, as things get cut that impact the working people of this country who you don't think much of, because they are not the rich shakers and makers as you have said many times, then that public outcry will gets to a point that the protests start congress will remain hiding behind there oak doors protecting the rich at all costs, even if its the cost of the country.
What is really stupid, and I mean stupid people are still out of work and the government should be paving a path for jobs not cutting spending when were still in a recession. And no BOB giving more to the rich is not the answer, they do not create jobs, if that were true everybody would be working, they have had it there way for years.
So quit with the BS everybody who follows this knows better, the republican party is split between stupid and ignorant, they are a disgrace both houses more to the republicans then democrats but all are guilty. The president can only do so much, he is not a dictator or king, he is the president and it would seem he is the only person in Washington who has shown any feelings or care to the people of this Country.

Florida man swallowed by sinkhole under bedroom
SEFFNER, Fla. (AP) — A huge sinkhole about 30-feet across opened up under a man's bedroom and swallowed him, taking all of the furniture too.
Jeff Bush was feared dead after the floor gave way Thursday night. As he screamed for help, his brother Jeremy Bush jumped into the hole to try to help, but couldn't see him and had to be rescued himself. With the earth still crumbling, a sheriff's deputy reached out his hand and pulled Jeremy Bush to safety. . . .

Reminds me of that song in Paint your Wagon,
You wanna see sin of the wickedest kind? Here it is!
You wanna see virtue left behind? Here it is!
Sodom was vice And visa-versa You wanna say where the vice is worser? Here it is! I mean, here it is!
You wanna live life in the rottenest city? Here it is!
Women and whiskey, night and day? Here it is!
You wanna embrace the golden calf? Ankle, and thigh, and upper half? Here it is! I mean, here it is!
No name city No name city The Lord don't like it here
No name city No name city Your reckoning day is near
No name city No name city Here's what he's gonna do
God love this town And swallow it down And goodbye to you
Will you go to heaven? Will you go to hell? Either repent, or fare thee well
God will take care of no name city Comes the end, and it won't be pretty Here it is! I mean, here it is!
Here it is! I mean, here it is!
Here it is! I mean, here it is!
Amen!

Beware Sick Camels or Hump Fever

Abu Dhabi
Camel Connection
To New Coronavirus?
Scientists in Germany are hoping that a
camel owned by a man from the United
Arab Emirates who died in Munich on
26 March will give them clues to the ori-
gins of a new coronavirus that has killed
11 people so far. The patient, a wealthy
73-year-old man from Abu Dhabi, was
taken to the Klinikum Schwabing in
Munich on 19 March and was confirmed
to suffer from the new virus, nCoV, 4 days
later (Science , 5 April, p. 17).
The patient owned racing camels and
had been in close contact with a sick camel
shortly before he fell ill, says Clemens
Wendtner, a physician at the Munich hos-
pital; a male relative also became sick after
contact with the same camel. Researchers
from the group of Christian Drosten, a virol-
ogist at the University of Bonn, are planning
to travel to the United Arab Emirates to take
samples from the camel, Wendtner says, to
find out if it was infected with nCoV. Previ-
ous anecdotal reports had linked the virus
to livestock, but so far, its origins remain a
mystery.
