www.kpbs.org California could become the first state in the nation to legalize marijuana under Proposition 19, a ballot initiative that would regulate and tax pot just like alcohol. KPBS takes a look at who stands to lose and who stands to gain if Prop. 19 passes.
California Proposition 19 (2010) yeson19.com www.legalizemarijuana.com http All California citizens, please make sure to vote YES on Proposition 19, also known as the Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010... Which will be on the November 2, 2010 California statewide ballot. It legalizes various marijuana-related activities, allows local governments to regulate these activities, permits local governments to impose and collect marijuana-related fees and taxes, and authorizes various criminal and civil penalties. In March 2010 it qualified to be on the November statewide ballot. Yes on 19 is the official advocacy group for the initiative. As of September 2010, even if the proposition is passed, the sale of marijuana will remain illegal under federal law via the Controlled Substances Act.

People Begin Living without Electricity and water in California I couldn't find statistics for local utility shut offs in my area, but I knew we would start to see more and more of this. Houses everywhere are going vacant. People don't say goodbye, they don't leave a number, they just disappear. With their disappearance we add another vacant house to the street. But families living in housing without utilities is a new sight for me to behold. I spoke recently with a rep from So Cal Edison who, full time contacts residence who have had their electricity turned off due to non payment. She has a negotiator sent in and they work on a reduced payment. It's amazing to me, that now, it is becoming acceptable in California to camp out in your home. People are losing their homes, losing their cars and losing their dignity. How are we going to afford kids clothes and school supplies for the coming year? How can we expect families to pay for all these additional costs when the economy is in the shape it in. I ask myself this everyday. www.gazette.com Requests for help paying utility bills surge upward Comments 19 | Recommend 1 Light switches, furnaces and water faucets aren't the typical gauges of economic health, but at Pikes Peak United Way's 2-1-1 call center, they tell a tale of people who continue to struggle to pay their bills in a weak economy.

California Ocean Protection Process Scapegoats Native Cultures Marine Life Protected Areas Would Allow for Deep Water Drilling yet would Ban Tribal Gathering Eureka, CA - Members of local American Indian Tribes interrupted the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative's Science Advisory Team meeting today demanding that they not be blamed for the decline in ocean fisheries. "We gathered and harvested the ocean's bounty for thousand of years in a sustainable manner. For California to blame Tribes for it's reckless mis-management of our fisheries for the last century is simply appalling," said Frankie Joe Myers, a Yurok ceremonial leader and member of the Coastal Justice Coalition. The Marine Life Protection Act Initiative (MLPAI) is a public and privately funded partnership between the State of California and a hand-full of big money, private foundations, primarily the Resources Legacy Fund, to implement the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA), which was signed into law in 1999. The MLPA is designed to protect ocean resources, but Tribal spokesmen say that it's an attempt by the Schwarzenegger Administration to greenwash his legacy. Amid chants of "keep your laws off my culture" and "MLPA taking Tribal rights away" the MLPA Science Advisory Team attempted to meet Tuesday, but Tribal activists essentially took over the meeting and demanded an opportunity to speak on the record. For about an hour Native Americans as well as non-native supporters criticized the process and demanded ...

Here is The Holdup's new sick new track "Summertime Baby" from their upcoming album. More coming from the boys from the San Jo this summer, so keep an ear out for their latest music and eye out for their next show. www.myspace.com dubrockmusic.com Thanks for watching and thank you to The Holdup for having me out to film this at BFD. Can't wait to work with them again soon! JW Bulldog Media www.bulldogmedia707.com "The Holdup formed in early 2008 when drummer Danny Flores and lead vocalist Mike Garmany recruited local bassist Kyle Christensen. They began writing songs and performing small local venues around town. It wasn't long before a fanbase gathered and the request for an album began to spread. Not having any recorded material the band decided it was time to hit the studio to record theer first EP. Later that Year, the band recruited Clev Stiles as DJ Manager, the chemistry and fit were undeniable and The Holdup was finally complete."

Taking that possibility into consideration, I think it's best if we ensure this program is filmed professionally in "broadcast quality" to ensure we have presentable, quality material for the networks in the hopes that your show will get picked up!

My friend, pianist James Williams(RIP) & ICU "Self Esteem" (Second Story Music, NYC) and my favorite group, STEEL PULSE Back To Our Roots Tour 2010 [HQ] by Anna Fisher (videos) 4:13 STEEL PULSE has been one of my greatest influences in music, couldn't believe there was a band on earth this great and I hadn't ever heard them. They had quite a few albums out already and know I'd have loved them as much as Bob Marley had they been given more airplay. Moved to St. John, United States Virgin Islands in 1983 after six visits to see my mom who was teaching there. We performed many concerts for the community and I was soon hired to teach Elementary Music on this tiny island of 4500 year-round residents. The local school children reminded me of the poor children of Africa and Jamaica that I had only read about in books. My mom's new love affair with everything Virgin Islands was soon mine as well! Remained on Love City for ten blessed years and heard STEEL PULSE daily and jammed it often in my car riding around the tiny emerald of the breathtaking turquoise Caribbean Waters. In 1992, was driving down the road listening to STEEL PULSE'S, "ROLLERSKATE" and heard David Hinds singing, "LIFE LIFE WITHOUT MUSIC I CAN'T GO"...for the twenty thousandth time but THIS time was different...I HAD TO MEET THESE ARTISTS!!!!

****Update****Prop 16 did not pass. So far election results say 52.5% of California voters voted no on Prop 16. Southern California had the most yes votes. On Tuesday March 23rd some San Francisco Board of Supervisors, community groups and local residents held a press conference on the steps of City Hall to denounce the lies and manipulations put-on Pacific Gas and Electric' mailers and television commercials over Proposition 16. Supervisors also took this time to re-iterate their commitment to Clean Power SF, which is a plan adopted in 2007 that will set San Francisco on the path to using clean renewable energy from cheaper sources.
Ageism, Sexism, Racism. How are we going to survive these? When I had to apply for food stamps last year, the first three of us in line were women over 35 with a bachelor degree, and NOT fluent in Spanish. Our home State has abandoned us. Reading the Web last night I found that the unemployment figures go up as income goes down. So those making 150K and above have 3.9 unemployment rate. For those at 20K and below, it is more like 51 percent. We have had a lot of shakeups here lately, just under us, in the ground. It is worrisome, a bit, as the San Andreas is right behind me in this video. .But when the unemployment runs out, the shakeup will be catastrophic. There is no welfare for folks without kids. It is called "Aid to Families with Dependent Children." There isn't even any General Relief now. An acquaintance who had been in hospital more than two years on and off with diabetes, gangrene, congestive heart failure, kidney failure, could not even get approved for 100 dollars a month to live on after he was discharged. Some women on employment forums admit they are already living in cars with their dogs, quietly. These women took care of the homes, husbands, child-rearing, caregiving, and all the real estate offices, the law offices, the schools, the hospitals, the county offices, the corporate money-gatherring of the 80s and 90s, and now are left with nothing.

It's essentially a stock 2000 Toyota Echo Coupe, as basic as they came: manual transmission, no CD or tape, no folding rear seats, no interior clock, no power windows/locks, no ugly plastic cladding (amen), no ABS-- bare. It has power steering and had A/C when we got it, but has since been decommissioned as the local Toyota dealer failed to notice the clutch was melted out of the A/C housing. But that makes it light-- roughly 2200 pounds (guessing, if I include the heavy A/C compressor power-steering, and fuel-- estimates of 2020 curb weights likely do basic and empty tanks). . . The 108hp 1.5L dual over-head cam (DOHC) with VVTi on the intake cam, and even a muffler with a small valve to open up at higher RPM's made these relative rockets in 2000. While other economy cars like the Hyundai Accent, and even the base Ford Focus (better for handling) would do 0-60 around 10 and 9 seconds respectively, but the Echo was good for 8.4 seconds-- and that's in a heavier and better equipped sedan. Equally, the handling was fairly compliant for being a tall skinny car on rather small 175/65R14 tires which didn't give it the most grip a car could have, but holds surprisingly well giving a nice progressive feeling of the car slowly letting go (as opposed to ripping your face off and then letting go more violently). Some reviews, though not hugely known reviews, have even claimed it felt like a "four door Miata." No small feat. No it's not an M3 or Camaro, but compare it to even the ...

Long Beach, California On New Years Eve, action sports icon Travis Pastrana made history in Long Beach, ringing in 2010 with a bang. The four-time Rally America Champion and nine-time X Games Gold Medalist broke boundaries and accelerated himself in to the history books by accomplishing an amazing feat of skill and calculated risk at Red Bull: New Year. No Limits. At approximately 9:00 pm local time (midnight ET), Pastrana launched his Subaru Impreza STI rally car off the Pine Avenue Pier in Long Beach at 91 miles per hour, soaring 269 feet over Rainbow Harbor and successfully landing on a floating barge.

What a way to head into 2010! Pastrana is a pioneer in his sport he completed the first ever ...

From 2007 Album: "How You Sell Soul to a Soulless People Who Sold Their Soul?" Public Enemy's Official Site: www.publicenemy.com Get Public Enemy's Music: www.amazon.com & itunes.apple.com Public Enemy, also known as PE, is an influential hip hop group from Long Island, New York, known for its politically charged lyrics and criticism of the American media, with an active interest in the frustrations and concerns of the African American community. In 2004, Rolling Stone Magazine ranked Public Enemy number forty-four on its list of the Immortals: 100 Greatest Artists of All Time. Acclaimed Music ranks them the 29th most recommended musical act of all time and the highest hip-hop group. The group was inducted into the Long Island Music Hall of Fame in 2007. Chuck D put out a tape to promote WBAU (the radio station where he was working at the time) and to fend off a local mc who wanted to battle him. He called the tape Public Enemy #1 because he felt like he was being persecuted by people in the local scene. This was the first reference to the notion of a public enemy in any of Chuck D's songs. The single was created by Chuck D with a contribution by Flavor Flav, though this was before the group Public Enemy was officially assembled. According to Chuck, The S1W, which stands for Security of the First World, "represents that the black man can be just as intelligent as he is strong. It stands for the fact that we're not third-world people, we're first-world people; we're the ...

kyletgarrett.com Fall 2001, it was the beginning of my Freshman year of High School in Santa Cruz, Northern California. Little did I know, that playing on the 9th grade basketball team that year would have lead me to meeting my new best friend and riding buddy at the time Andy Kolasa, who I had noticed rode his mountain bike to practice everyday. Make a long story short, after discovering a common passion for street mountain bikes, we became best friends spending much of our time together talking about new bike skills we were pursuing and wanted to learn as well planning our next ride.. We always loved sharing new cutting edge biking videos we watched that showed pro mountain bikers doing what seemed like impossible tricks and stunts like New World Disorder, New World Disorder II Fat Tire Fury, New World Disorder III Freewheel Burning, and New World Disorder IV Ride The Lightning. After school, a lot of times Andy and I would finish our homework together then go ride for a couple hours before dark if we didnt have basketball practice. We looked forward to that time all day and would usually talk about biking during our breaks while switching classes too! One weekend day while hanging out, Andy mentioned to me he had a Sony Digital Camcorder that we could use to film and make our first biking video with I had never filmed before and definitely didnt know how to edit or import video footage on a computer. Luckily, Andy had all of that taken care of, and I started learning ...

My friend Dave the raw food truck driver tells his story of how he came from the brink of death to heal himself of several diseases including colon cancer, type II diabetes, kidney disease, with the consumption of raw foods. Not to mention his amazing weight loss of 178 pounds over the last 16 months, and he's not stopping there. He is going to go ALL the way with his health, and wants YOU too as well. This guy is a TRUE SUPERHERO!! *****VIDEO #8 UPDATE***** This week, we find Dave at a raw food meetup group in Redmond, WA where Cherie Calbom, "The Juice Lady" was the special guest.

After Dave first healed himself of type II diabetes, the doctors then told him that he had stage IV colon cancer...basically a death sentence! Thank goodness he didn't believe in that death sentence, as here is what he thought instead....go, Dave!!!: If this stuff right here can heal my diabetes in 4 days, it can probably heal the cancer! When I started on a juicing program to heal the colon cancer, I told ...
Whats Up for August? Meteors! Hello and welcome. Im Jane Houston Jones at NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. 2009 is International Year of Astronomy. And each month this year were showcasing a great celestial object or event. This month its the Perseid Meteor Shower! Have you ever wondered what makes these cosmic fireworks? Meteor showers are just the debris of a passing comet or sometimes the debris from a fragmented asteroid. When a comet nears the sun, its icy surface heats up.This causes clouds of gas, dirt and dust to be released, forming a tail of debris that can stretch for millions of miles. As Earth passes near the dusty tail, some of the dust particles hit our atmosphere.They burn up and create the great celestial fireworks we see. NASA generates meteor shower forecasts to prevent potential hazards to spacecraft that are launching or orbiting Earth. NASA also monitors these showers to check the accuracy of the forecasts. NASAs Deep Impact mission is now on an extended mission called EPOXI. It will visit comet Hartley 2 in 2010. And the Dawn mission to Vesta and Ceres flies by Vesta for the first time in 2011, and flies by the dwarf planet Ceres in 2015. You don't need a telescope or binoculars to view a meteor shower.

Whats Up for August? Meteors! Hello and welcome. Im Jane Houston Jones at NASAs Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. 2009 is International Year of Astronomy. And each month this year were showcasing a great celestial object or event. This month its the Perseid Meteor Shower! Have you ever wondered what makes these cosmic fireworks? Meteor showers are just the debris of a passing comet or sometimes the debris from a fragmented asteroid. When a comet nears the sun, its icy surface heats up.This causes clouds of gas, dirt and dust to be released, forming a tail of debris that can stretch for millions of miles. As Earth passes near the dusty tail, some of the dust particles hit our atmosphere.They burn up and create the great celestial fireworks we see. NASA generates meteor shower forecasts to prevent potential hazards to spacecraft that are launching or orbiting Earth. NASA also monitors these showers to check the accuracy of the forecasts. NASAs Deep Impact mission is now on an extended mission called EPOXI. It will visit comet Hartley 2 in 2010. And the Dawn mission to Vesta and Ceres flies by Vesta for the first time in 2011, and flies by the dwarf planet Ceres in 2015. You don't need a telescope or binoculars to view a meteor shower. In fact, meteor showers are best seen with the unaided eye. You'll see some Perseids all month long -- before and after midnight but the real fireworks will appear in the wee hours of Wednesday, August 12th.Between 2 and 4 am ...
