• New legislation would slash impact fees for some California housing

  27-02-2020 23:54
  
  Gov. Gavin Newsom has vowed to come up with a plan to boost homebuilding this year.
  “The status quo is simply unacceptable — we aren’t building enough housing,” he said during his State of the State address Feb. 19.  “ … It’s time for California to say yes to housing. We cannot wait.”
  But it turns out Californians will have to wait for details on how the governor will accomplish these goals. The plan is still being drafted.

• Senior Moments: Whether presidents or porn, Mom was serious about her voting

  27-02-2020 23:53
  
  Seated at a round table in the library of her nursing home, my 96-year-old mother voted in favor of pornography actors having to wear condoms.
  It was not a conversation I would ever have had with her, but my husband handled it in style. I can still see the quizzical look on Mom’s face when George queried her on how she wanted to vote. She asked him to explain both sides of the issue again before she decided.
  Whether it was presidents or porn, Mom was serious about her voting. The only day

  It will become a safe haven for sea otter pups, a place orphaned critters can cuddle and learn survival skills with “surrogate mothers.”
  The Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach announced Thursday, Feb. 27, a partnership with the Monterey Bay Aquarium to help the struggling species, once found in great numbers off the California coast but now protected and feared near extinction.

  While several responded to my emails for questions, others did not. None of them offered great substance on how they would pay for their suggested solutions.

• Positive outcomes in Orange County education

  27-02-2020 22:41
  
  In his Feb. 9 op-ed, Orange County Board of Education member Ken Williams made a number of erroneous claims, including the suggestion that I should do more to approve charter schools. This reflects some of his deeper misunderstanding about public education.
  For the record, superintendents can recommend charter schools, but district school boards and county boards of education have the legal authority to authorize them. And contrary to Williams’ views, supporting student success and educati

  Opponents are going to have issues beating the Clippers if they’re going to have this much trouble scoring on them.
  In their past two games, the Clippers held both Memphis and Phoenix to fewer than 100 points. (That, after giving up an average of 121 points in the three-game losing streak immediately prior.)
  L.A. stifled the Grizzles’ ball movement on Monday, limiting Memphis to 20 assists — 7.1 off their league-leading average.

  Nine years ago, I received the following email from husband and wife Mark Gilles and Shawn Mulloy: “We are among the lucky ones who have a productive peach tree. It’s growing in our side yard in the area of Lake Balboa (center of the San Fernando Valley). It is a freestone variety about six feet tall and 12-15 years old. It produces a wonderful crop yearly. All we really do is prune it in the winter and thin out the young peaches as they grow in.”

  If you live or work anywhere near the intersection of 5th and Sycamore in Santa Ana, you might have noticed something strange in the air lately. You can’t miss it: the potent aroma of fried chicken. It’s a thick, invisible fog that hovers and swirls for blocks in every direction. It is nimble and hypnotizing. As soon as you notice, it disappears. Then out of nowhere it ambushes you again. Except it’s not coming from nowhere. It’s coming from the new Gus’s World Famo

• Ford pickups recalled for too-bright headlights

  Ford has recalled recent F-150 pickup trucks because of a problem that can make the headlights so bright that they blind other drivers.
  The recall, announced Friday, affects certain 2018-2020 F-150s that have LED headlamps and autolamp functionality.
  The problem occurs when the driver manually turns on the headlights rather than using the automatic setting. In some cases, the daytime running lights also remain activated, so the headlights are brighter than intended.

  One sure-fire way to distinguish serious reforms from the superficial variety: The former always generate intense pushback from vested interests that are committed to the status quo. Public agencies can’t fix a real problem without swatting the hornet’s nest.
  By that standard, Placentia’s two-year effort to reduce costs of its fire service is the genuine article.

It is inexpensive and can be found at drug stores, where it is commonly sold as a laxative or for soaking feet. A cup or so spread around citrus, avocado and other fruit trees boosts their performance, too. This little bit once a year is just right, but more is counter-productive, so don’t get carried away.
