• Managerial miscues plague California government

  07-04-2019 23:00
  
  Politics being what they are, officeholders habitually pitch new services and projects to their constituents, seeking favorable images that will carry them through their next election.
  Viewed through the prism of short-term elective politics, management of existing services and projects is seen as humdrum, lacking political sex appeal. But that neglect ill-serves the public and wastes immense amounts of their money.
  It’s why, for instance, that in a state renowned for its advanced technolo

  Sophomore Jaylen Hands has declared for NBA draft, the point guard wrote on social media Sunday, making him the second player from last year’s UCLA team to sign with an agent during the predraft process.
  Hands, who also tested out the NBA waters last season before returning to school to lead the Pac-12 in assists, wrote on social media he has the “full intent to stay in” the draft. Fellow sophomore guard Kris Wilkes signed with an agent two weeks ago.View this post on Instagram

• David Fletcher gets a shot in Angels’ outfield

  07-04-2019 22:23
  
  ANAHEIM — When Kole Calhoun crashed into the wall on Saturday, giving the Angels two injured outfielders, opportunity came for David Fletcher.
  Calhoun was out of Sunday’s lineup, although he said he’s improved and was available to play, so Fletcher got his first major league start in left field. Brian Goodwin moved to right. Justin Upton will be out until at least June because of a toe injury from a collision with the wall.
  Fletcher had played a few innings in the outfield last

• Will California’s taxpayers ever pay enough?

  07-04-2019 21:00
  
  Every day it seems like the California Legislature careens further off the rails, and we’re not just talking about the state’s infamous high speed rail project. The rapidity of tax increase proposals that would punish both citizen and business taxpayers is breathtaking. Particularly astounding is the fact that new revenue simply isn’t needed given our highest-in-the-nation income tax rate, state sales tax rate and a litany of other tax metrics that cause residents of other stat

  “Constitutional rights would become meaningless if states could obliterate them by enacting incrementally more burdensome restrictions while arguing that a reviewing court must evaluate each restriction by itself when determining its constitutionality,” Benitez wrote in a f

• Whicker: UCLA hasn’t found the right coach, but she’s out there

  07-04-2019 19:44
  
  What’s happening, or not happening, at UCLA is reminiscent of what happened with the San Antonio Spurs in 1999.
  The Spurs correctly felt they were headed for an NBA title. They hired a team of marketers, branders and other non-essential personnel to come up with a playoff slogan. They spent untold thousands on the project.
  What came out of those consultations was the following battle cry:
  Go Spurs Go.
  UCLA needs a new basketball coach. It formed a search committee. It found TCU coach Jamie

  San Gabriel Councilman Chin Ho Liao likes to make himself available to the residents he represents.
  He’s not shy about giving out his cellphone number to residents who want to air their concerns. But the problem with picking up every call, he said, is that many of them are the same: a recording which sometimes begins with music, and a Mandarin-speaking woman warning you are wanted in China.
