Family and friends begin spreading fliers to help find missing UCLA student

The family and friends of a UCLA student who was reported missing more than one week ago have begun an effort to spread missing persons fliers up the West Coast, in hopes of increasing the chances of finding information about his whereabouts.

David Goeser, a fourth-year English student, was last seen by his roommates on July 22 in his apartment on the 1000 block of Roebling Avenue.

Prop. 8 supporters file petition with Supreme Court to review case

Supporters of California’s Proposition 8, which would ban same-sex marriage in the state, took their fight to the next level Tuesday by filing a petition with the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn lower court rulings.

Prop. 8 was passed by California voters in 2008 as a ballot measure, outlawing same-sex marriage in the state. But on Feb. 7, a federal appeals court struck down the law in California and ruled it unconstitutional.

Supporters of the 2008 ballot measure are now asking for the Supreme Court to review the case in hopes of having Proposition 8 reinstated. The petitioners include the website ProtectMarriage.com and four other individuals – Gail Knight, Martin Gutierrez, Mark Jansson and former California assemblymember Dennis Hollingsworth.
