Los Angeles magazine reports spotting singer David Crosby, basketball star Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and super-agent Lew Wasserman all here at 8 AM on the same day.
And the food is surprisingly good (try the good chicken noodle soup, lox, bagels, great potato pancakes, or one of their 70 different giant sandwiches - with the best tye bread in town).
Expect low prices to go with the modest decor (especially by Beverly Hills standards): dinner for two can cost under $30.
People were suffering from high crime; the department was in trouble.
The Police department was under funded, undermanned, poorly trained, ill equipped and seriously at odds with the community that they were trying to serve.
To some extent they got the job done, they did the best they could in bad times. But along the way they built barriers between themselves and the community that they were trying to serve. It was not easy for them to get their jobs done without the support of the people, that they so desperately needed.
The department, desperately needed our leaders to make the right kinds of decisions. They were charged with the responsibility of making long-term plans to make this a better department under the lack of financial raises and operating costs. The revitalization of the community city council, its new mayor and I want to mention too that the community council have been revitalized and are doing vital work for this city. They are keeping the Police Department in touch with its residents.
I love my Police department as many residents do and want to do whatever I can to offer my support and gratitude for their loyalty and commitment to excellance.
in closing may I add that I am pleased to tell you that, my Father, Simon is recovering nicely from a devastating and debilitating stroke and I am very proud of my Mother with whom, her special love and nurturing, has brought my Dad a long way to recovery since its adverse effect upon him. To the law enforcement personnel of this great city. I will tell you that we as a community we will cooperate in every way possible to create and protect a better, greater life for all. People that know me, know that I am fond of quoting the great philosophers scientists, and presidents. And so I will leave you with the favorite closing of President George Bush.
Thank you, God bless You and God bless America. Respectfully I remain; David Harrison Levi -
