In June 1947, Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) chief Clemence B. Horrall ordered what he called a "blockade raid" of the whole Skid Row area. Over 350 people were arrested. Assistant Chief Joseph Reed, who claimed that "at least 50 percent of all the crime in Los Angeles originates in the Skid Row area," stated that there had been no "strong arm robberies" on Skid Row as late as one week after the raid. Long time residents, however, were skeptical that the changes would last.[17]

Since Mike Feuer took office as City Attorney in 2013, he has settled eight additional cases of patient dumping with various hospitals around Los Angeles. These cases have been a part of a larger attempt to solve the issue, in addition to working with some hospitals on long term solutions. The total settlements from all eight have been over 4 million dollars.[29]
And outside this limited framework, no evidence exists that harm reduction reduces overall rates of addiction, crime and overdose deaths. In fact, despite a steady expansion of harm-reduction services, last year was the deadliest on record for Los Angeles County, with meth-related overdose deaths up more than 1,000 percent from 2008, claiming Skid Row as its epicenter.
In the Central Division, crime has increased 59 percent since 2010, with officers responding to 13,122 incidents last year, including 2,698 assaults, 2,453 thefts and 1,350 car break-ins, a trend doubtless intensified by the addiction crisis.
The property was converted into an affordable housing complex last December, but six months later, just 73 of the 600 available units are occupied. The recent motion by council members Kevin de León and Bob Blumenfield calls on city agencies to provide a report outlining a program to provide permanent housing in the hotel through its voucher program.
And they're back! Google Transit appears to be showing Metro bus and rail routes once again. A technical glitch dating to last week had resulted in Metro being dropped from the popular Google Transit tool, meaning some of our riders were getting some very interesting and often out-of-the-way advice when [continue reading]
As some of our riders may have noticed, Google Transit is still not displaying Metro bus and rail service. The problem dates to last week and involves an issue with the transfer of data from Metro to Google. Google provided Metro with an update on Monday morning and said they [continue reading]

Brash New Jersey-based rockers Skid Row were one of the very last metal outfits to hit the mainstream before grunge took over in the early '90s. While the band's self-titled debut employed standard pop-metal riffs and lyrics (albeit to great commercial success with the hits "18 and Life," "I Remember You," and "Youth Gone Wild"), 1991's Slave to the Grind and 1995's Subhuman Race broke the mold with uncharacteristically hard, thrashy guitars and unique songwriting techniques. Fronted by charismatic vocalist Sebastian Bach, personal differences and changing trends eventually tore the core lineup apart by 1996, with Bach embarking on a successful Broadway and acting career. The group soldiered on with a series of different frontmen, including Johnny Solinger, ex-TNT vocalist Tony Harnell, and former DragonForce singer ZP Theart, and continued to tour and release new material into the 2010s. In 2022, the band conscripted ex-H.E.A.T. vocalist Erik Grönwall, who showed off his impressive range on that year's rousing The Gang's All Here.
During the supporting tour, tensions between the group members ran high and Skid Row disbanded shortly afterward. Bach went on to form the Last Hard Men with Smashing Pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin, but that group broke up after recording a cover of Alice Cooper's "School's Out" for the Scream soundtrack in 1996. Plans to record new songs for the Skid Row greatest-hits album, 1998's Forty Seasons, fell through, and Bach went on to form a solo project and portray the title role in the Broadway musical Jekyll and Hyde. In mid-2000, Skid Row re-formed with new singer Johnny Solinger and toured as the opening band for Kiss' farewell tour. They released Thickskin with Solinger in 2003, followed by Revolutions Per Minute in 2006. Both albums saw the group adopt a more modern, alternative rock-leaning sound. In 2013, Skid Row inked a deal with Megaforce and issued United World Rebellion: Chapter One, the first of a planned series of EPs. The second installment, 2014's Rise of the Damnation Army, would be the last Skid Row outing for Solinger, who was dismissed and replaced by former TNT vocalist Tony Harnell. December 2015 saw Harnell leave the fold, making room for ex-DragonForce vocalist ZP Theart, who fronted the group until 2021. Early 2022 saw the arrival of the rousing, old-school-sounding single "The Gang's All Here," which featured new singer Erik Grönwall, formerly of Swedish hard rockers H.E.A.T. The track appeared on the full-length album of the same name, which was produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Rush, Alice in Chains) and released later that October.
They called it Project X. It was an unusually audacious, highly sensitive assignment: to build a massive skyscraper, capable of withstanding an atomic blast, in the middle of New York City. It would have no windows, 29 floors with three basement levels, and enough food to last 1,500 people two weeks in the event of a catastrophe.
To Lopez, P2P meth sank Skid Row to a new, dispiriting low. Soon, the district was consumed by people running naked and screaming in the streets, wandering lost and bleeding, and fighting off those who offered help. In 2013, as court cases, tents, and meth created increasingly perverse results on Skid Row, Lopez left the BID for a downtown lobbying job. For the next few years, she watched a few blocks to the east as tent fires grew so common that BID workers began carrying fire extinguishers.
On July 21, 2022, the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) and Rockland County Department of Health alerted the public to a case of polio in an adult Rockland County resident, making it the first U.S. polio case since 2013.
A wealth tax bill in California never even got a public hearing last year. Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat who was just elected to a second term in a landslide, has actively campaigned against efforts to increase taxes on the rich.
On Jan. 26, 2013, Elisa Lam arrived in LA. She had just come by Amtrak train from San Diego and was headed to Santa Cruz as part of her solo trip around the West Coast. The trip was supposed to be a getaway from her studies at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, where she was originally from.
But at least one person did see Lam soon before her death. At a nearby shop, eerily named The Last Bookstore, owner Katie Orphan was among the last to see Elisa Lam alive. Orphan remembered the college student buying books and music for her family back in Vancouver.
By 2018, large swaths of the city are unrecognizable from just a few years prior, with newer and larger developments popping up along various corridors. Wards 7 and 8, east of the Anacostia River, are some of the last areas yet to experience gentrification. But many feel it will arrive soon, thanks in part to several large development projects in those areas.
On March 3 local time, the State Department of the United States released its country reports on human rights practices, posing once again as "the judge of human rights". Wielding "the baton of human rights," it pointed fingers and cast blame on the human rights situation in many countries while paying no attention to its own terrible human rights problems. People cannot help asking about the actual human rights situation of the United States in 2016. Concrete facts show that the United States saw continued deterioration in some key aspects of its existent human rights issues last year. With the gunshots lingering in people's ears behind the Statue of Liberty, worsening racial discrimination and the election farce dominated by money politics, the self-proclaimed human rights defender has exposed its human rights "myth" with its own deeds.
-- Livelihood of middle- and low-income groups was worrisome amid widening income gap. In 2016, the proportion of adult Americans who had a full-time job hit a record low since 1983. Over the last three decades, nearly 70 percent of income ended up in the pockets of the wealthiest 10 percent. The population of U.S. middle-class registered a turning point toward contraction. Besides, one out of seven Americans remained in poverty, with life of 45 million people in strained circumstances. The average life expectancy fell from 78.9 years to 78.8 years as the United States posted a drop in overall life expectancy for the first time in over 20 years. 2ff7e9595c
