• As Trump visits, presidential politics, beach culture collide in Newport

  18-10-2020 22:35
  
  The two tanned, middle-aged men on bicycles lazily cruised north on Newport Beach Boulevard, toward the bridge spanning the city’s main waterway.
  Both stopped, then the man in the lead turned around to gawk at the massive crowd of supporters of President Donald Trump gathering on Via Lido.
  “Dude!” the first yelled. “He’s coming right there.”
  “No way!” the other said.
  As it has numerous times over the last four years, amid protests and political ral

• Dustin May will start NLCS Game 7 for Dodgers against Braves

  18-10-2020 22:17
  
  ARLINGTON, Texas >> After the Dodgers won Game 6 Saturday, it was apparent they would likely start a rookie pitcher in the deciding Game 7 of the National League Championship Series.
  But which one? Dustin May, Tony Gonsolin and even Brusdar Graterol were all possibilities and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said “we’ve got some good names available.”
  Just a few hours before game time, they made their choice — May will start against the Atlanta Braves Sunday.

• Prop. 15 backers try to mislead homeowners

  18-10-2020 21:00
  
  It’s a sign of desperation. When anyone in politics starts making wild claims less than a month before an election, you know something is amiss.
  So it is with the proponents of Proposition 15, the “split roll” initiative which would impose the largest property tax increase in California history. Throughout this campaign, proponents have consistently argued that the measure won’t impact homeowners because it just raises property taxes on commercial and industrial propertie

• Eight months in, California is containing COVID-19 as other states spike. Here’s why.

  18-10-2020 19:42
  
  Eight months into the coronavirus pandemic, California has become a rare case: a state that has contained the transmission of COVID-19 and isn’t experiencing another surge — yet, at least.
  Nationwide, daily infections are up one-quarter in the last two weeks, and the country just reported its most in a single day since July. Lightly populated North Dakota is seeing 85 new cases a day per 100,000 residents over the last two weeks. California? Ten new cases per 100,000, up just 2 perce

  NORFOLK, Va. — People have been diving to the Titanic’s wreck for 35 years. No one has found human remains, according to the company that owns the salvage rights.
  But the company’s plan to retrieve the ship’s iconic radio equipment has sparked a debate: Could the world’s most famous shipwreck still hold remains of passengers and crew who died a century ago?
  Lawyers for the U.S. government have raised that question in an ongoing court battle to block the planned expe

  One hallmark of an advanced society is a reliable supply of electrical energy for residential, commercial and industrial consumers.
  Uncertainty that power will be there when we need it it undermines social cohesion and economic progress – as demonstrated by the travails of poor nations with erratic energy supplies.

  Amid an unprecedented global pandemic that has had a devastating effect on our economy, and caused great financial hardship to millions of Californians, proponents of Prop. 15 now want to impose even greater hardship on families and local businesses.
  How?
  By enacting the largest annual property tax increase in our state’s history – up to $12.5 billion per year.
  Supporters of the measure claim Prop. 15 will only raise taxes on large, wealthy corporations with commercial land and build

  Surf City lived up to its nickname on Saturday, Oct. 17, as a surf festival drew enthusiasts to check out vintage surfboards, classic cars and laid-back, Hawaiian-style tunes in downtown Huntington Beach.
  The hope for the Rockin’ Fig Vintage Surf Festival, held on the third block of a closed down section of Main Street, was to help merchants who continue to struggle during the coronavirus pandemic. Attendees were encouraged to space out and wear masks while strolling through the area.

• These hidden home risks can send insurance through the roof

  18-10-2020 17:00
  
  When house hunting, the price of homeowners insurance probably isn’t top of mind. But homes with hidden risks can make getting coverage difficult, expensive or both. Learning how to identify them could save you a bundle.
  This could be a particularly important concern for first-time homebuyers and those moving from cities to suburban or rural areas who may not be aware of common hazards, says Jennifer Naughton, risk consulting officer for North America for Chubb, an insurance company.

• Pandemic rent control? Southern California landlords losing pricing power

  18-10-2020 17:00
  
  It took a virus, not political action, to prune the pricing power of California landlords.
  The coronavirus has hammered the state economy, and the once rock-solid residential rental market has been especially hard hit. Data from the Consumer Price Index shows us that business limitations designed to slow the pandemic’s spread have dramatically changed consumer spending habits — just as California voters will weigh a rent-control measure Nov. 3.

  Children are eager to get out in costumes and celebrate Halloween, which is right around the corner.

  I have been one of the lucky ones since the pandemic hit in March of this year. My loved ones are healthy, and my law practice is busier than ever. But I see the havoc COVID-19 has caused—I see it in my clients every day. I feel it myself sometimes, too.

  He did his usual backflip in the midst of the ring. Then he lay there and did several snow angels, right in the middle of that winter wonderland known as Las Vegas.
  As he did so, blood droplets peppered the canvas, coming from a 12th-round cut in his right eyelid.
  You saw everything about Teofimo Lopez right then, as if he hadn’t shown you enough.
  Lopez was not going to talk his way past Vasiliy Lomachenko, the 32-year-old holder of the three lightweight belts that Lopez didn’t hold.

  The younger, bigger man also turned to be the better man Saturday night, and Teofimo Lopez holds four lightweight belts around his waist today like a fancy gold equator.
  Lopez, 23, rolled up a big lead over Vasiliy Lomachenko in the early rounds, endured a rush by the 32-year-old Lomachenko and nailed it down with a strong 12th round. At the end he still had enough energy to do his customary somersault, even though he was still bleeding from Lomachenko’s accidental head butt in the 12th.

  In September 2016, when pollsters were quite certain that Hillary Clinton was the next president of the United States, history professor Allan Lichtman predicted that Donald Trump would win the election. Even earlier, in February 2016, political science professor Helmut Norpoth assessed that Trump had a 97 percent chance of defeating Clinton.
