    Long Beach celebrates LGBTQ community during 41st Pride Parade
    Long Beach’s waterfront once again overflowed with the “rhythm” — and the colors — of the rainbow, as thousands of people converged on Ocean Boulevard to celebrate the city’s 41st annual Pride Parade.
    There were colorful outfits — pink cowboy hats and rainbow tanktops. There was a biker in a leather jacket and a Freddie Mercury cosplayer. The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence were out in force. There were more Pride flags than you could count. And there wa

    Airbnb cleaning crew stumbles on 200+ pounds of meth in Alhambra rental home
    A cleaning crew at an Airbnb discovered boxes containing roughly 235 pounds of methamphetamine last month, Alhambra police said on Sunday, June 2.
    Footage from a Ring camera shows two people transporting the drugs in a U-Haul van, police said in a news release. The same van returned to the home on the 1400 block of South Ethel Avenue as police were on scene and quickly made a U-turn to leave the area, according to authorities.
    But they were arrested on suspicion of transporting narcotics.

    Angels bring Ben Joyce back to the big leagues, looking for better control
    SEATTLE — The Angels are hoping that this version of Ben Joyce is better than the one they last saw in the big leagues.
    The Angels recalled the hard-throwing right-hander on Sunday, putting him on the roster in place of demoted starter Reid Detmers.
    Although manager Ron Washington said earlier in the week that the Angels still wanted to see Joyce throw more strikes at Double-A, the decision with Detmers opened up a spot for him.

    PARIS (AP) — After the French Open marathon came the sprints.
    Defending champion Iga Swiatek swept into the quarterfinals at Roland Garros in just 40 minutes after a crushing 6-0, 6-0 win against Anastasia Potapova.
    U.S. Open champion Coco Gauff took only 60 minutes to rout unseeded Italian Elisabetta Cocciaretto 6-1, 6-2.
    The 20-year-old American looked set for an even quicker victory when she led 5-0, but Cocciaretto fought back, getting a hearty chee

  • Is exploding cost of raising kids going to shrink Southern California?

    Is exploding cost of raising kids going to shrink Southern California?
    Want to have a kid or three?
    Want is a key word here. Contrary to some pop culture chatter about the supposedly expanding number of young adults who don’t want kids, at least some new polling suggests the opposite might be true. Not only do most people who can have kids want them, the desire for bigger families – three or more kids – is more common than at any time in the past half-century.
    In a Gallup poll released last fall about 45% of respondents said the ideal family inclu

    After Trump’s conviction, now what?
    Former President Donald Trump was convicted on Thursday on 34 felony counts pertaining to hush money payments made to porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 presidential election. The former president is the first to be convicted of a crime.
    This editorial board was not impressed by the indictment when it was first released last year, describing the case as “remarkably thin.”
    Obviously, a jury of 12 New Yorkers disagreed and decided the former president was in fact guilty of viol

    Successful Aging: Age is just a number … for many, but not all
    Q. People often remark that age is just a number. We assume anyone who exercises, has a healthy diet and stays actively engaged in professional and other pursuits will live forever. I have done all of these and put in thousands of miles of running (with scars to prove it) and believe and certainly feel age is more than just a number. Am I missing something? B.J.
    From my perspective, that phrase is in response to ageism, a cultural norm in our society. It suggests that what we are doing, thinking

    Before the historic guilty verdict in former President Donald Trump‘s felony case, vulnerable House Republicans had a tight rope to walk.
    Starting with his 2016 presidential campaign, Trump has been a polarizing figure in American politics. Candidates in Southern California’s swing districts these past election cycles — like Rep.

    Yes, public employees, we know you detest $100K club stories. We hear you when you say it’s a distorted lens on public pension challenges. And that there’s nothing magical — or diabolical —about the number $100,000.
    We’re even sympathetic to accusations that we suffer from “pension envy” (guilty as charged).

    Why a ‘reimagined’ detention system for juveniles has stalled in LA County
    Four years ago, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors backed a sweeping reform package that proposed closing the county’s juvenile halls by 2025 and placing the youth into smaller, more homelike “safe and secure healing centers.”
    The progressive policy pledged to invest in a new Department of Youth Development — an agency eventually formed in 2022 — that would focus on programs to keep children and teens out of the juvenile justice system, while simultaneously

    Yes, elder abuse can land you in prison and cost thousands in fines
    As the youngest of the baby boomers turn 60 this year, issues affecting the elderly are sure to become more prominent.
    One of the most pressing concerns for seniors is elder abuse. As many as 5 million older Americans experience abuse every year, according to the National Council on Aging.
    Under California law, elder abuse is defined broadly and can result in civil or criminal penalties. If the abuse rises to the level of criminal abuse, the charges can be misdemeanors or felonies.

    Reid Detmers’ nightmare continues in Angels loss to Mariners
    SEATTLE — At various times throughout his still relatively short big league career, Reid Detmers has looked like one of the Angels best starters and one of their worst.
    He’s currently the latter, mired in a mystifying two-month slump.
    Detmers gave up five runs in the Angels’ 9-0 loss to the Seattle Mariners on Saturday, bloating his ERA to 6.14.
    Detmers had a 1.19 ERA over his first four starts, but he’s now followed that with an 8.93 mark over his last eight.
