• Why California regulators have to protect both consumers and company profits

  04-06-2024 09:22 via ocregister.com
  
  In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Southern Pacific Railroad wielded almost total control over California’s politics, angering farmers who believed they were being gouged by high freight rates and fueling a powerful populist movement.
  Farmers’ complaints spawned several efforts to regulate them and finally gave birth in 1911 to the California Railroad Commission. Just a year later, the commission’s rate-setting authority was expanded to natural gas, electric power,

• Ron Paul: The Trump trial and our injustice system

  04-06-2024 09:20 via ocregister.com
  
  I’ve long criticized our current US justice system – on all levels – as becoming much more about political justice than blind justice. The bizarre trial and conviction of former President Donald Trump last week on 34 felonies only reinforces my concerns.
  The New York District Attorney, Soros-backed Alvin Bragg, has been notorious for downgrading felony charges against others to misdemeanor charges. According to a recent article in the Daily Mail, Bragg had downgraded 60 percent

• Angels produce in the clutch for a 1-run victory over Padres

  04-06-2024 06:05 via ocregister.com
  
  ANAHEIM — The Angels won one of those games they always seem to lose.
  Jo Adell’s leadoff double in the eighth and then some good situational hitting produced the go-ahead run in the Angels’ 2-1 victory over the Padres on Monday night.
  The Angels (22-38) are now 9-21 in games decided by one or two runs, and the poor record in close games is largely because of their situational hitting, defense and bullpen.
  In this game, though, it all worked.

  It has come to this.
  “A shared set of facts is paramount for any discussion of the issues facing Huntington Beach,” a very frustrated City Councilmember Dan Kalmick wrote. “Being that this Council struggles to find common ground on even the most basic of issues, I believe that it has come time for this Council to reaffirm that water is indeed wet and that the sky is blue.”

• Angels’ Patrick Sandoval believes new sweeper is already his best pitch

  ANAHEIM — Add Patrick Sandoval to the list of pitchers who believe a sweeper can be a key addition to their arsenal.
  Back in 2022, pitchers began using the term to describe a pitch that is somewhere between a slider and a curve. More and more pitchers began adding the pitch.
  Sandoval started experimenting with the pitch last year, and he sprinkled in a few of them earlier this season. He had thrown just 15 in his first 10 starts, but then he threw 12 on May 24 and 21 in his last start on M

  This is where the former Orange County Register and longtime Los Angeles Times sports columnist would defy the expectation of a follow-up line about how some people loved him, too.
  Simers, who died Sunday at 73 years old after a battle with a brain tumor, was a force on the Southern California sports scene and relished his role as a villain and an agitator. He enjoyed his verbal sparring with coaches and star athletes at press conferences and in locker rooms and di

  DALLAS — Jason Kidd isn’t big on personal vindication.
  Leading the Dallas Mavericks to the NBA Finals as their coach 13 years after he was the point guard on the franchise’s only championship team means more to Kidd than proving he was right about Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving needing time to grow into a title-seeking tandem.
