Friends who work at the paper have told me that the people in charge pay close attention to what stories receive the most Web hits. If you haven't already done so, we have an opportunity to send them the message that we want more coverage of Egypt, its culture and its people.
Reporter Jeffrey Fleishman did a wonderful piece on Alexandria on July 19 that you can find

Thank you!!
If you're a fan of Little India in Artesia like I am, you'll want to check out this terrific videologue from Robert Gauthier at the L.A. Times. It's part of the "Street Scenes" series and runs like a 2 1/2 minute documentary. You'll see the shops, the fashions, the food -- and even a bit of an Indian dance class. The evolution of the Pioneer Boulevard neighborhood is told in the residents' own words, too. Very cool :-)
