STUDY: STUDENTS PREFER LIVING CLOSE TO CAMPUS For college students, the distance between campus and housing does matter.

Café Gratitude BY KAI CHAN Nothing beats warm drinks on a chilly day and maybe a sweet treat or quick meal to accompany the drink. Los Angeles is filled with various cafés. Read what this city has to offer! Blu Jam Café 7371 Melrose Ave. Los Angeles 90046 blujamcafe.com This is the perfect place for breakfast or brunch. The menu is quite extensive, ranging from dishes such as egg benedicts and French toast to gourmet sandwiches and burgers. For sweets, ask the server what treats the café has that day. The drink list includes coffee, lattes, tea blends and juices. My favorite is the White Peach Tea, which they serve in a pot with flowers and tealeaves. You pour it into your cup THE INTERNATIONAL SENSATION and sip the day away.

  • ASCAP/BMI Comment
    November 14, 2015 Chief, Litigation III Section Antitrust Division U.S. Department of Justice 450 5th Street NW, Suite 4000 Washington, DC 20001 Re: Justice Department Review of the BMI and ASCAP Consent Decrees To the Chief of the Litigation III Section: My name is David Hodges and I am a songwriter living in Los Angeles, CA. I have also been an artist and producer working with many established and top performing artists. You may know some songs that I have written and produced including “ Bring Me To Life” by Evanescence; “Because of You” by Kelly Clarkson; “See Your Again” by Carrie Underwood and “A Thousand Years” by Christina Perri, just to name a few of the many I have written through the years. I have been an affiliate of BMI since 2002 (thirteen years) and I truly value the service and support BMI has provided me throughout my career. BMI has been invaluable to me in the pursuit and growth of my creative career. I write today in response to the Justice Department’s request for public comments on the issue of whether BMI and ASCAP’s consent decrees mandate music licensing on a 100% basis, rather than the long-established industry practice of fractionally licensing jointly- owned songs. It’s vital that my voice is heard, because if 100% licensing were required it would severely impact my creative freedom, my ability to choose which PRO licenses my music, and ultimately, my livelihood as a songwriter. Beyond my career, these ramifications would profoundly affect songwriters across our nation. My profession is writing songs, making me America’s smallest small business.
