  09-10-2020 23:59
  
  Older adults are especially vulnerable physically during the coronavirus pandemic. But they’re also notably resilient psychologically, calling upon a lifetime of experience and perspective to help them through difficult times.
  New research calls attention to this little-remarked-upon resilience as well as significant challenges for older adults as the pandemic stretches on. It shows that many seniors have changed behaviors — reaching out to family and friends, pursuing hobbies, exerc

  Owners of closed tattoo shops in Torrance, Long Beach and Thousand Oaks are seeking a temporary restraining order that would prohibit the state from keeping them closed, arguing they are more tightly regulated than barber shops, nail salons and beauty parlors, which have resumed operating.
  Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office did not return a request for comment.
  The Los Angeles Superior Court lawsuit, filed last week, also argues that the work of tattoo artists are protected by the First Amendment,

• Dodgers hitters adjusting to their Texas-sized home away from home

  09-10-2020 23:37
  
  ARLINGTON, Texas — Mookie Betts made it sound as simple as ordering off the breakfast menu.
  “Yeah, it’s a pretty big field,” he said of Globe Life Field, the Dodgers’ home away from home for as long as their postseason run lasts. “But that just means there’s a lot of hits out there. So we just build innings with hits instead of homers.”
  And so they did.
  The Dodgers hit 118 home runs during the 60-game regular season, producing more than half (179)

  Orange County schools spent months preparing for the ominous reality that the coronavirus could reach their campuses once classrooms reopened for in-person instruction.
  Students and teachers have first-line defenses such as masks, sneeze guards, sanitizer and temperature checks, but schools also readied with another level of response that is now taking shape. This kicks in when COVID-19 infects a student or teacher.

  Now that Gov. Gavin Newsom completed the year’s bill signings, it’s a good time to assess where our state is headed. The COVID-19 crisis grabbed the lion’s share of legislative attention, but a broader picture has emerged. Working with the Democrats’ expanded supermajorities, Newsom clearly is pushing California in a much-expected left-leaning direction.
