Tropicana loses bid to get back license
(Jason Springer )
Apparently it was a long shot appeal... "The findings made by the commission that Tropicana lacked the financial integrity and responsibility, as well as business ability, are amply supported by the record," the court said in a 44-page ruling.

LATimes: ME 'Conservative'
(denniscmcgrath )
Great editorial supporting marriage equality in today's LA Times:
It's a fairly reliable indicator of a bad argument when its proponent is forced to overstate the case in order to make it ... Same-sex couples are not upending the institution of marriage; nor are their supporters. Rather, they are engaged in a profoundly conservative act: They ask not to abolish marriage but to uphold it.

Congratulations to Del and Phyllis, the first same sex couple to be wed (officially, permanently and legally this time, we trust) in San Francisco. They will be the very first SSM performed (well, since that 2004 flurry) by SF Mayor Gavin Newsom ... read the clip. You won't regret it.
