LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Scottie Scheffler was in handcuffs before dawn in the back of a police car. His warmup routine began in a jail cell. And some six hours later, Scheffler remarkably signed for a 5-under 66 and was right in the mix Friday at the PGA Championship.
Collin Morikawa set the early pace with five straight birdies that carried him to a 65. Xander Schauffele, fresh off his record start of 62, was not letting up in a bid to beat darkness. Tiger Woods had two triple bogeys and was he

Get ready for the sequel.
For 10 years, the mountain lion known as P-22 was the first wild cat to call Los Angeles’ Griffith Park home, becoming a celebrity with a television series, biographies, his own Twitter (now X) handle, street murals and museum exhibits. His story inspired co-existence between modern humans and wild animals.
Now, about 1 1/2 years after his death before Christmas 2022, another mountain lion has arrived in the park, captured on video inside the 4,314-acre urban oasi

Lawsuit against OC Registrar of Voters, Board of Supervisors challenges use of vote centers

Renting forever toward a strong financial future

Moving back and forth from Tennessee to Alaska, Michael Rogers and his wife Christy have twice been stuck simultaneously paying a mortgage and rent. Once, in 2006, the situation dragged on for eight months, finally ending when they sold their house in Tennessee for $20,000 below what they’d paid for it.
Other adventures in homeownership ended well — the couple doubled their money after selling a fixer-upper. Then later, with another property, they had to pay out $30,000 to fix a muds

Financial fraud at California’s community colleges

The COVID-19 pandemic exposed California’s fiscal mismanagement in countless ways, most spectacularly in the payment of more than $30 billion — some estimates put the total as high as $55 billion —in fraudulent unemployment benefits. But another category of fraud could quickly balloon to numbers nearly that high unless more is done to stop it.
We’re referring to the enrollment of vast numbers of “bots” in California’s community college classes, and their

Jacqueline Saa has a genetic condition that leaves her unable to stand and walk on her own or hold a job. Every weekday for four years, Saa, 43, has relied on a home health aide to help her cook, bathe and dress, go to the doctor, pick up medications, and accomplish other daily tasks.
She received coverage through Florida’s Medicaid program until it abruptly stopped at the end of March, she said.

Amid an insurance crisis that pushed property insurers to exit California’s market, Gov. Gavin Newsom penned an executive order that “urges Insurance Commissioner (Ricardo) Lara to take swift action to address issues with the insurance market and expand coverage options for consumers.”

America’s obsession with race is a double-edged sword

The concept of race can be a valuable tool in analyzing social structures, but we must also keep in mind the consequences of being overzealous in its application.
During the latter half of the 20th century, the progressive sentiment about race and the Civil Rights movement was that we should look beyond outward appearances and resist granting too much importance to race. Martin Luther King Jr. famously endorsed the view, stating in his 1963 speech, “I have a dream that my four little child
