  Gov. Gavin Newsom’s recent loosening of such restrictions allows many previously closed merchan

  Life would have been so different if I had been an 8 medium. While most of my friends could buy cool stylish shoes at a reasonable price, I had my mother’s feet. Size 9 narrow.
  “You should wear the boxes instead of the shoes,” a salesman once told her.

  Even CEOs are starting to get squeezed by the economic realities of this pandemic. But compared with their employees, a growing number of critics still say it’s not nearly enough.
  So far, top executives of many major U.S. corporations — including some at the very epicenter of the crisis — have mostly held onto their outsize pay packages after giving up some of their salaries. And even as rank-and-file jobs vanish, some still have a distant shot a

  To save Laguna Beach restaurants, city officials are considering turning the famous downtown Forest Avenue into a pedestrian-only area that will accommodate outdoor dining options.
  The idea stemmed from a month-long project in which Laguna Beach City Councilwoman Sue Kempf consulted with restaurants citywide about their challenges.

  It should be obvious that the state of California cannot long endure without businesses reopening and employing people, but Gov.
