Captured this shot from the Second Street bridge waters at sundown Saturday, cycling over to Naples. Thought I'd share. Enjoy the evening.

Hi Mark. I'll see if I can find out. Roughly what time and nearest landmark if any?

Prior to his election as a write-in candidate, Councilman Patrick O'Donnell told the Long Beach…Read More Business Journal on February 28, 2012 the following:*****
LBBJ: If you win the reelection, will you commit to a full four-year term?*****
Councilman O'Donnell: If you run for four, you serve four. *****
LBBJ: So, you're not going to run for Assembly in two years? *****
O'Donnell: Correct. *****
LBBJ: No matter what? *****
O'Donnell: Correct. If you run for four, you serve four. *****
If you can't trust O'Donnell's word, why would anyone vote for him to be their representative for political office? *****

And do his supporters care about this, do you think? No doubt others will.

Regarding, "do O'Donnell's supporters care?", many of O'Donnell's supporters are in…Read More elected and appointed public positions, and their support of O'Donnell includes placing the financial burden of a $150,000 special election on the taxpayers. I would think that a responsible journalist would ask each of them about that issue.

This opinion piece is so full of self-serving hot air it could float. Two paths will make the beach…Read More look like a freeway? The author clearly hasn't seen too many freeways lately. Speaking of seeing, if the author would care to spend a little time looking at the beach (which I do on a daily basis, as I live overlooking the Bluff) they would realize that the current bike/pedestrian path is the most heavily used and enjoyed segment of the beach from the Belmont Pier to Shoreline Village. On any given day, there will be hundreds of people on the paths, compared with a handful on the sand itself.
The author inadvertently makes that point when he or she writes that the beach "...should be valued for its own recreational value." Clearly, many more people enjoy walking, running or bicycling on the path than on the beach itself. Give the people what they want, and not what a mysterious, nameless, faceless group is trying to block.

Uh, Richard? Opinion pieces are by nature self-serving and one sided. I'm not saying that is agree…Read More with the opinion, just saying that gordana can have her say.
Nothing like creating a false narrative to support a flawed premise... http://articles.latimes.com/2012/jun/30/local/la-me-bus-racism-20120630
A racially tinged feud between Seal Beach and Long Beach prompts Long Beach Transit to yank its Passport bus service to Seal Beach. By Paige Austin Email the author June 27,2012 Hurt feelings, harsh words and allegations of racism lobbed across the border between Seal Beach and Long Beach has led Long Beach Transit officials to pull its free Passport bus route from Seal Beach starting in August. The rift between cities has left hundreds of bus riders in the lurch, more than 300 of whom signed and submitted a petition Monday, asking Seal Beach leaders to bridge the divide. It may be too late.
As I recall, what it truly came down to was that LBT wanted to use larger buses on the route and those just could not be accomodated on the Seal Beach streets that the smaller Passport buses had been able to use.
Keep up the good work John, and thanks for posting a link the real story & not one that was slanted in order to make an exciting headline. I always wonder what cop haters do when they need a help from law enforcement. Suck it up & call 911 anyway?
You have 5 posts, all bashing, all on this story. It is obvious you came in here with a bias toward certain people. You aren't going to claim you have no other name on Patch under which you post, are you? Riiiight. I, on the other hand, have posted here for years, and have a history, so your comment makes absolutely no sense. I am not surprised, but I am also not going to waste my time arguing with a troll.
