  Failing to do so undermines a fundamental commitment of liberal democracy: no person is above the law. Despite ill-informed assertions to the contrary, encampments and sieges are not protected by the First Amendment. They are permissibly regulated under content-neutral time, place, manner restrictions.

  Hola, amigas and amigos. Are you looking for a dish for Cinco de Mayo? This easy carnitas recipe will fit the bill.
  I love carnitas any way they’re served, be it in tacos with coleslaw and pineapple salsa or pickled onions. Or perhaps in burritos with refried beans, cheese and any other favorite ingredients. Carnitas nachos are delicious with guacamole, sour cream, olives, green onions, pico de gallo, cheese, jalapenos and cilantro.

• Why a bountiful fruit tree in your garden is a delight until it isn’t

  05-05-2024 01:35 via ocregister.com
  
  Q. About 3 1/2 years ago we planted a Fuyu Persimmon tree from a local nursery near Moreno Valley. It grew rather quickly, and last year, there was a large quantity of beautiful, tasty persimmons. However, the yield was heavy enough that a couple of the larger branches broke off. Toward the end of the season, we tied up some of the branches to the stake. Now, this year, over the early spring, most of the upper branches are brittle, gray, and frankly, dead. To my surprise, there is one healthy-lo

  Right now, Rob Blake’s No. 4 in the Crypto.com Arena rafters is a reminder less of his days as the Kings’ rock-solid defenseman than of a flurry of executive mistakes – including one big whopper – that has set his franchise back significantly and for a while appeared to put his
