One day my hoops will be made of diamonds
My knuckles made of real gold
I’ll spend my days getting high with all my friends
In the glamorous and green old part of Hollywood
Sunrise, I’m a supernova
Body electric and I dance like Morrison
When the night begins, baby comes alive again.
(Chorus)
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
I’m alive again
I’m alive again
(Verse)
One day I’ll drive in a gold Mercedes Benz
Singing opera on Bolero
Hair to my ass will be flying in the wind
Shootin’ heroine and speedballs
See the sea, I’m a supernova
I walk on water and I dance like Joplin
When the sun descends, I dive into the waves again.
(Chorus)
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
I’m alive again
I’m alive again
(Bridge)
Oh, c-can you see me?
Woah, my heart beating fast,
I can feel it chasing in the speedlights
I was built to last.
Woah, c-can you feel that?
Ah, my heart's shakin fast,
I can feel that you’re the one for me,
You'll be my first and you'll be my last.
(Chorus)
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
In Hollywood
I’m alive again
I’m alive again
I’m alive again
I’m alive again

When the mayor of Richmond, Calif., and a gaggle of activists and homeowners showed up at the Wells Fargo Bank headquarters in downtown San Francisco this month, they were on a mission to speak with the bank's chief executive.
They wanted the bank to drop a lawsuit aimed at stopping Richmond's first-in-the-nation plan to use the government's constitutional power of eminent domain to "seize" hundreds of mortgages from Wells Fargo and other financial institutions.
As Mayor Gayle McLaughlin and the plan's backers approached the bank building, security guards locked the doors. After a bank official told her there would be no meeting then and that someone would call her later, she grabbed a bullhorn.
"I am absolutely not backing down," McLaughlin said, as curious tourists and lunching office workers milled about.
Wells Fargo, three other banks and even the Federal Housing Finance Agency think otherwise.
The banks have filed two lawsuits alleging that the plan is an illegal abuse of eminent domain, which allows governments to seize private property for public use — like a house in the path of a new highway or a piece of land needed for a new park.
The banks argue the plan would "severely disrupt the United States mortgage industry" because many other cities would likely adopt the same program to help homeowners who owe more on their mortgages than their houses are worth.
So far, Richmond has sent out more than 600 offers, but has not yet begun any eminent domain proceedings. Newark, N.J., North Las Vegas, Nev., El Monte, Calif., and Seattle are considering similar plans, according to Wells Fargo's lawsuit.
While the housing industry is recovering slowly, Richmond, a city of roughly 100,000 people, is in the middle of a housing crisis, as plummeting home values and rising crime has left many worried that an era of urban blight is upon them.
McLaughlin said cities are considering the program because they are desperate. Nearly half the mortgages in Richmond, for example, are "underwater," the owner owes more than the house is worth.
The plan is the brainchild of Cornell University law school professor Robert Hockett and here's how it works:
"The fact of the matter is that underwater loans do default at massive rates," Hockett said. "Underwater loans are a major drag on the economic recovery. We have got to do something."
Ricardo Davis with Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment holds a sign while police talk to Wells Fargo executives in San Francisco.
Richmond, working with San Francisco-based Mortgage Resolution Partners, offers $150,000 to buy a $300,000 bank loan on a house that is now worth $200,000 and is in danger of foreclosure.
If the bank agrees, the city and the company then obtain the loan at $150,000. Richmond and the company then offer the homeowner a new loan of $190,000, which, if accepted, lowers the monthly payments and improves the owners' chances of staying.
In such transactions, the company receives $4,500 for each completed sale and splits any additional profits with the city.
If the bank refuses to sell the loan to Richmond, then the city invokes its power of imminent domain and seizes the mortgage. It would then offer the bank a fair market value for the home.
Mortgage Resolution Partners, the company partnering with the city, puts up the money and had promised to pay all Richmond's legal costs. City officials have not said how many homes they hope to refinance through eminent domain.
McLaughlin is a Green Party candidate who beat back opposition from the city's police and fire unions to win a second term in 2010.
She said she fears homeowners will begin to abandon their homes, leading to blighted neighborhoods and the draining of public coffers to the point of municipal bankruptcy experienced by Stockton, Calif., and Detroit.
"The city is stepping in where Wall Street and where the federal government have been unable or unwilling to do so," she said.
Federal regulators said eminent domain isn't the answer. The Federal Housing Finance Agency said plans to seize loans "present a clear threat to the safe and sound operations Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and the Federal Home Loan Banks."
Tim Cameron, a Washington, D.C., lobbyist with the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, said there is more at play than a single person's underwater loan.
Cameron said pension funds, banks and other groups that made loans in Richmond stand to lose millions if the city is allowed to use eminent domain to force lenders into accepting less than the original terms of the loan.
He also predicted that cities using eminent domain will make lenders wary of doing business there.
"There's a domino effect in play here," he said.

A Queens grandma returned to her childhood home in Washington Heights to see how it had changed after 73 years ? and got an ugly dose of reality.
Marjorie Ramondetta, 93, and her daughter Linda Reynolds, 65, were allegedly shoved down a flight of stairs in the building by a thug who then stole their pocketbooks, law-enforcement sources said.
?After we fell, he took the bags,? a still-bruised Reynolds told The Post yesterday. ?I heard my mother say, ?Please help me! I ran upstairs, and I?m yelling, ?Call the cops! Call the cops! Someone help us!? ?
MEAN STREET: Marjorie Ramondetta, 93, whose wedding photo recalls old Washington Heights, yesterday shows bruises from her assault.

MEAN STREET: Marjorie Ramondetta, 93, whose wedding photo recalls old Washington Heights, yesterday shows bruises from her assault.
Ramondetta, who hadn?t been back to the building since 1940, added, ?We?ve never had such an upset in our life.?
The women arrived at the building on Amsterdam Avenue and 164th Street on Tuesday at 12:20 p.m. to snap photos for a family scrapbook, Reynolds said.
Ramondetta was sitting on the stoop getting her picture taken by Reynolds when the alleged thug ? identified as career criminal Richard Davidson ? greeted them.
?He said, ?Can I help you?? He was clean-cut, clean clothes, clean-shaven. He looked decent,? Reynolds recalled.
Davidson, 25, asked them if they lived in the building, and Ramondetta said that ?she was born there and wanted to see what it looked like at present day,? according to a police source.
He then escorted the women to the second-floor apartment, where Ramondetta once lived, the police source said.
?He [then] says, ?I have to get my keys downstairs,? ? according to Reynolds. ?He came back up and said, ?I?m not going to hurt you.? ?
Davidson then allegedly grabbed for their purses, but the women wouldn?t let go of them.
Davidson then threw the women down approximately 10 stairs, Reynolds said.Quote:
?I tried to kick him. I don?t know if I kicked him in the legs, but my object was not the legs
? if you know what I mean,? Reynolds said.
He allegedly scooped up their purses and ran away, sources said.
The women were treated at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital.
?I?m in so much pain,? Reynolds said, showing her back and buttocks covered in dark bruises.
Later that day, Davidson was arrested on an unrelated grand-larceny charge.
While in custody, he allegedly confessed to stealing the purses as well as to a similar case on Aug. 2.
Davidson has 21 prior arrests dating back to 2008.

Fine
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
Five Minutes
If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour.
Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
Nothing
This is the calm before the storm. This means "something" and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "nothing" usually end in "fine".
Go Ahead
This is a dare, not permission, DON'T DO IT!
Loud Sigh
Although not actually a word, the loud sigh is often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing".
That's Okay
This is one of the most dangerous statements that woman can make to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
Thanks
This is the least used of all words in the female vocabulary. If a woman is thanking you, do not question it. Just say you're welcome and back out of the room slowly.
look like daddys girls to you?
