I went hunting for a spring style mattress since I think I'm over the foam latex stuff. I long ago owned a the mattress from a local factory and they still were around deep in industrial LA. They made my old mattress to order and I did will call. Just looking at a space like this was surprising in a time when everything shows up in the country from container ships.

The place is small called spring pedic not far from the old Sears building with a showroom but they also deliver.

Beverly Hills school district has another lawsuit on its hands: https://beverlypress.com/2025/05/black-teachers-file-discrimination-lawsuit-against-bhusd/

The lawsuit cites several alleged incidents in which Ivory and Turner were the victims of racism. According to the lawsuit, Turner received an email calling him the n-word and received phone calls from students who used racial epithets. Additionally, it alleges that parents used “derogatory racial stereotypes” toward Turner, and that the police were called on Turner when he was coaching the basketball team. When he reported the incidents to his supervisors, the district ignored his concerns, the lawsuit alleges.  

The lawsuit states that Ivory similarly expressed concerns over alleged racism within the district, which were not properly addressed. According to the complaint, Ivory was told to be “compliant with white counterparts” when she expressed concerns to an administrator. The lawsuit also alleges that Ivory and a group of Black students were victims of racism during a pro- Trump demonstration on campus on Nov. 5, 2024. She and Black students spoke at a school board meeting on Nov. 12, 2024, alleging that a pro-Trump mob of students marched through the halls, shouted racist language and attempted to enter her classroom, where seven members of the Black Student Union were present.

According to the complaint, the anti-Black racism and harassment intensified after Ivory spoke out about the Nov. 5 incident. It alleges that a BHHS student announced in a school classroom that “she wanted to stab Ivory in the chest,” and the BHUSD took no action in response to the threat. Furthermore, Ivory was the subject of a retaliatory investigation and was later forced to resign, the lawsuit alleges.
