    Death toll hits 25 from California fires as search goes on
    By GILLIAN FLACCUS, PAUL ELIAS and ANDREW SELSKY
    PARADISE, Calif. — With hearses standing by, crews stepped up the search for bodies in the smoking ruins of Paradise, and relatives desperately tried to find more than 100 missing loved ones, as wind-whipped wildfires raged Sunday on both ends of the state.
    The statewide death toll stood at 25 and appeared certain to rise.
    At least five search teams were working in Paradise — a town of 27,000 that was largely incinerated on Thursday &m

    Undaunted, Clippers ready to dive in against the Warriors on Monday
    LOS ANGELES – Coach Doc Rivers has fielded a few versions of the same question lately: Are his Clippers, of whom little was expected, playing like he envisioned they’d be —7-5 through a daunting opening stretch in which 12 of their first 14 games were against teams that made the playoffs last season?
    Usually, Rivers has offered some version of “I didn’t have a vision, I really didn’t,” in response.

    On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, the guns that began to roar in August 1914 finally fell silent. The Great War, which took the lives of some 17 million people, including more than 116,000 Americans, was over.

    Launching a multi-pronged initiative to raise awareness about homelessness might seem unnecessary.
