• Can a mural in a Costa Mesa church parking lot sway public opinion on homelessness?

  31-08-2019 23:03 via ocregister.com
  
  For the past week, the only part of the mural at the historic First United Methodist Church in Costa Mesa that passersby could see from 19th Street was the intriguing words “What Solves,” painted in purple hues on a bright blue background.
  Until an unveiling ceremony on Saturday, Aug. 31, temporary fencing blocked the next word beneath that: “Homelessness.”

  31-08-2019 23:00 via ocregister.com
  
  Allow me to pose a philosophical question: “Which came first, the plant-based chicken alternative or the ground-flaxseed or aquafaba egg substitute?” Or, if you prefer plainer language, “Is it still Animal Style if no animals are involved?”

  On Jan. 28, 2017, a day after having dinner with President Trump at the White House, James Comey wrote a memo recording his recollection of the evening and the conversation.
  “I felt comfortable throughout,” he wrote, “although never relaxed, given the focus the conversation required.”
  Comey noted that the president had asked him, “So what do you want to do?” in the context of a discussion of whether the then-FBI director would stay in that job or move on.

  Rarely do you move into your new home on the day escrow closes.
  In order to make such a quick transition happen, the sellers would have to be gone and the house vacant. Most sellers prefer not to load up their moving van until the deal is done and their money is on its way to their bank or in the escrow account so they can finish the deal on their new home.
  What is more typical is sellers who hang around for a few days (or longer, in some cases) after escrow closes. The extra time gives them a c
