  09-11-2019 23:50

  09-11-2019 21:00
  
  Next year, California voters are likely to be asked whether they want to change a key part of the Proposition 13 tax limitation regime that has been in place for 40 years.
  Advocates of the “California Schools and Local Communities Funding Act of 2020” are aiming to remove restrictions Prop. 13 placed on increasing the taxable value of commercial properties.
  Supporters of this effort rightly point to an inequity that has developed under Prop. 13 but their remedy would reduce controls

• Recipe: Pasta with walnuts, feta, sweet potato and mint pesto has a delicious toasted flavor

  09-11-2019 19:20
  
  Growing up in a house surrounded by walnut trees, the tasty bounty played a big role in the autumn meals of my childhood. In those days my mom didn’t know that toasting those frisky nuts would enhance their flavor, mellowing out acerbic edges. That came later.
  Their toasted flavor is especially delicious when balancing out sweet or starchy dishes. This pasta recipe is one example. Showcasing diced sweet potato and a perky mint pesto, the combination is delectable. The recipe is sourced fro

  LOS ANGELES — Frank Vogel calls it “extra-pass basketball.” It seems like a risky concept on a team with two dominant superstars, but consider: When the best player is also the best passer, the idea of making that extra pass to get a better look becomes cooler.
  Thus, there was this sequence early in the second quarter of Friday night’s 95-80 victory over Miami, with the ball zipping back and forth across the court: LeBron James to Kentavious Caldwell-Pope to Alex Caruso t
