• Cody Bellinger clears the air with Dave Roberts, returns to Dodgers’ lineup

  30-04-2018 23:12 via ocregister.com
  
  PHOENIX — One day after he benched first baseman Cody Bellinger for not hustling out an extra-base hit, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said he has “moved past” the incident.
  Bellinger said after the Dodgers’ 4-2 loss to the Giants that he respected Roberts’ decision. He also defended his choice to hold up at second base rather than try for a triple on a fly ball to the right-center field gap, known as “Triples Alley” at AT&T Park.

  The transition to a fully regulated cannabis industry is taking California a bit longer than anticipated.
  While state regulators scramble to extend temporary marijuana business licenses, they’re also considering whether to extend a grace period that gives operators extra time to comply with strict new industry standards.
  As of Monday, a tenth of the 6,000 temporary cannabis licenses state regulators have issued were set to expire by May 1, which marks the four-month anniversary of the star

  The notion of a “job guarantee” in America, once appropriately seen as a fringe idea lacking credibility, is growing in popularity among the Democratic Party.
  Last week, the Washington Post reported that Democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont is crafting a proposal in which the federal government would guarantee a job that pays $15 an hour plus health insurance to any American “who wants or needs one.”

  In this era of hyperpartisanship, it’s hard to agree on much. But one thing that seems clear to everyone involved is that the events that transpired last week on the Korean peninsula were remarkable. North Korea’s Kim Jong-un met South Korea President Moon Jae-in at the DMZ.
  Then, leaders of the two nations, still technically at war, exchanged pleasantries as Kim crossed onto South Korean-controlled soil. He is the first North Korea leader to ever visit the south.
