This portion of the layoff memo to surviving employees courtesy Craig Smith:

"Understand, we will never give up our defense of the right of the ownership of the paper to control the content of its newspaper."

CANCEL THE NEWS-PRESS. Tell your friends, family, neighbors, businesses you patronize to stop subsidizing unethical journalism and bad business practices. Stop shopping or dining at businesses that advertise.

Nice story. The Deadly Syndrome, one of the bands on Dim Mak, has a major UCSB connection with two of its four members, Will Etling and Jesse Hoy, being UCSB grads.

This story needed much more source attribution in order to be considered credible.

Nick shows yet again why he is one of the few useful journalists left in Santa Barbara. Companies like Greka require major watchdog reporting in order to make sure they are being overseen properly. Arf! Arf!

Pappas ran a platform-less campaign last time, and he's not very personable. Let's see if he does any better this time around.

Chris, it would have been nice to see an effort to contact CJ Jackson and find out whether he's throwing his hat in, too.

High Quality Native American? Sounds like somebody was looking to cash in on the casino cash cow!

A noteworthy debut album by a band with legitimate Santa Barbara connections. Two of the band members started their music careers playing for people standing in line for events at IV Theatre when they were UCSB students. One of the album's best tracks, "Eucalyptus" draws inspiration from the curtains at the edge of I.V. and Ellwood. They play at Velvet Jones Wednesday night 9-12 with San Francisco's "The Morning Benders." Don't miss it.

Can someone please report the back story here on why Smyser resigned? There is more to this story than a biographical brief..

I really appreciated your comments about Our Lady of Guadalupe. I went there this year for the first time after hearing about it for many years. It was exactly as you described - a great mix of people and really good food. To me it felt like the best of Santa Barbara - nothing pretentious or out-of-reach about it. Viva la!
