  There’s no better way to get a glimpse of the Grand Prix’s growth than taking a look at 50 years worth of posters

• Trump’s trade war is not worth it

  26-04-2025 16:30 via ocregister.com
  
  President Donald Trump might be the deal-making genius he and his supporters claim he is, but so far genius and chaos look similar.
  Trump’s tearing up trade deals and slapping tariffs onto most of the countries in the world. He’s trying to pressure the Federal Reserve chairman to lower interest rates. And he’s imposing massive pain on the stock market to accomplish his goals of reviving U.S. manufacturing and, I don’t know, something amorphous and generic like making Amer

  Once again, Sacramento is trying to force high-density living down the throats of people who have worked their whole lives to own a single-family home in a low-density neighborhood.
  You may remember that in 2021, Sen. Toni Atkins, now a candidate for governor, abolished single-family zoning throughout California with her Senate Bill 9, which required cities to approve lot splits that turned one single-family home into four residences on the same parcel of land.

• How to elevate your raised bed game with some gardening tips

  26-04-2025 16:08 via ocregister.com
  
  How times, and terms, have changed.
  Up until a few years ago, the term “raised bed” referred to a garden bed that consisted of rich soil perfect for growing vegetables. Such a bed included plenty of compost and provided optimal conditions for root growth due to its fluffy texture. The ultimate raised bed required double-digging, a process where soil is dug, loosened, and composted to a depth of two shovel blades or 20-24 inches. This hard work paid off when, in a few years’ tim

  Someone passed a box of tissues to Sequoyah Thiessen. Child abuse, she told the Senate Health Committee, drove her to drugs at age 15. But at 22, she vowed to get sober.
  Thus began a hellish descent into California’s private-pay, insurance-money-fueled segment of the addiction treatment system.
  “Treatment,” she told the senators, was an oxymoron there. She endured violence, sexual harassment, emotional manipulation, cult-like environments, grotesque living conditions, forced re

  Fifty years ago, one Saigon fell, and another arose.
  It was never supposed to be that way.
  On April 30, 1975, the communist North Vietnamese Army captured the democratic South Vietnamese capital. The last Americans evacuated the city, taking as many South Vietnamese allies with them as they could. The two-decades-long Vietnam War was effectively over.

  Minus the pandemic era’s gyrations, it was the worst year for California employment since the post-Great Recession’s 115,600 decline in 2010. And, historically speaking, job growth was 15% below the average employment boost since 2000.

  Despite a big comeback that saw the Kings erase a two-goal deficit and hold a lead to begin the third period, Edmonton mustered just enough to tie the game on two different occasions, and scored four third period goals (two empty-netters) to earn a 7-4 win and cut the Kings’ series lead to 2-1 on Friday night at Rogers Place.
