IS THE PATRIOT ACT PATRIOTIC? - Wm. Buckley, Jr.
IS THE PATRIOT ACT PATRIOTIC? - Yahoo! News
The in-some-ways unpatriotic Patriot Act?
I respect William Buckley, but we don't usually share the same political viewpoints.
In this case, the Patriot Act, we appear to. Good article here.

Teen driver death rates - California is better than average
CNN.com - Teen driver death rates - Jul 21, 2005
First off, far too many teens (and others) die on the road.
But, it's good to hear that CA is doing better with this than the national average.
We're tied with North Dakota and Minnesota.
Curiously, these rates seem to fit in with that blue state-red state thing - with the blue states tending to be safer.

CNN.com - Survey: 25,000 civilians killed in Iraq war & Other Disturbing Iraq War statistics
CNN.com - Survey: 25,000 civilians killed in Iraq war - Jul 19, 2005
And 42,500 Iraqi civilian injuries.
With almost 14,000 injured.
Our troop (all the coalition) casualties: almost 2,000
Over 500 of the U.S. troops killed were under the age of 22. (Those under 22 clearly the largest age group of the fallen.)
Over 13,000 U.S. troops have been injured.
The Army's been clearly leading the rest of the U.S. armed forces in deaths and injuries.
California leads the U.S. nation in Iraqi casualties.
So, your average soldier on our side would be from California, under 22, and in the Army.
What a waste.
Why?

What would Southern California blog be without mention of this?
Personally, the nightly summer fireworks at Disneyland have been taking twice as long this year, at least. (Boom Boom Boom What time is it? Must be around 9:30 pm - Disneyland's fireworks time.)

Yes, and we have mass transit here, too - 'though not nearly enough.
My heart goes out to those in England today. Damned Al Qaeda and their killing of innocents...

L.A.'s first modern Latino mayor takes office - Antonio Villaraigosa
L.A.'s first modern Latino mayor takes office - Yahoo! News
He seems a good guy to me, and nearly winning the mayoral race previously.
I think L. A. will be better off for his election. Among other good qualities, he knows what it's like to live in and to work your way up and out of a poor neighborhood in this city.
(Nice-looking guy, too... ; )
