  LOS ANGELES — Much has been made this week about whether or not the Rams’ offense — the highest scoring in the NFL — will travel for this weekend’s divisional matchup with the Chicago Bears. With temperatures expected to hover around 20 degrees at kickoff with winds up to 17 mph off Lake Michigan, would the Rams be able to move the ball and score the way they have been accustomed to in this 2025 season?

  Purdue (10-7 overall, 2-4 Big Ten) lost its first four games of Big Ten play but beat Wisconsin on the road and then took down Washington, which was ranked No. 23 at the time, in overtime.

• UCLA’s Kiki Rice takes next step in her senior season

  LOS ANGELES — Kiki Rice has always been mild-mannered in front of the media, unafraid to honestly analyze what has and hasn’t worked in her first three years as a Bruin.
  The antithesis of such an approach would be aggressive; the type of basketball that Coach Cori Close has wanted the senior guard to embrace, the intense off- and on-ball defense with physical and confident shot-making – knowing the WNBA is watching No. 3 UCLA (16-1 overall, 6-0 Big Ten) with an eagle’s ey

• Susan Shelley: The Supreme Court could make election night great again

  17-01-2026 16:30 via ocregister.com
  
  California counts votes very slowly. While many other states and even other countries can tally ballots and report totals on election night, Californians have become accustomed to waiting an entire month before the winner is known in close races.
  One reason for this is a state law that requires all 58 counties to accept late-arriving mail ballots for seven days after the polls close. But that could be about to change.
  Federal law (2 U.S. Code Section 7) states that there is one “day for th

  Q: After the rain, I’ve been seeing mushrooms popping up in my lawn. Are they harmful? If so, how do I get rid of them?
  Mushrooms are a normal sight after cool, rainy weather. In fact, their presence indicates that your soil contains lots of organic matter (which is a good thing). Healthy soil contains a huge variety of organisms, including fungi, that feed on decaying organic material. The fungi are always present, but if there’s moisture, they will produce fruiting bodies (mushroom

• Why this 47-year-old book is the best source for gardeners

  In my humble opinion, the best book on gardening is “The Principles of Gardening: The Classic Guide to the Gardener’s Art” by Hugh Johnson.
  First published in 1979 and still widely available through Internet vendors, this book, above all, will inspire you to grab a shovel or trowel or shears and start planting, pruning, or propagating right away.
  I have always thought that good garden writing creates a sense of urgency in the reader to actually start engaging in what author Joh

• Is the middle class ‘shrinking’ or ‘struggling’? The difference is important.

  17-01-2026 15:00 via ocregister.com
  
  “The middle class is shrinking” might be the assertion of the decade. Progressives and populists alike use it to justify nearly all government interventions, from tariffs to minimum-wage hikes to massive spending to income redistribution. But before we accept its validity, we should ask a simple question: shrinking how?
  Is the number of Americans considered part of the middle class diminishing? Or the amount of wealth they can realistically build? Or the value of what they can buy?
