    Girls, ages 3 and 4, killed in Rialto collision that police blame on DUI driver
    Family members and friends of two girls killed in a traffic collision on Sunday, Nov. 24, mourned them as the driver who Rialto police say was responsible for their deaths sat in jail accused of murder.
    Rialto police confirmed information in a GoFundMe request that identified the girls by their first names, Neveah and Alinah. One was 3 years old and one was 4. Community members left candles, balloons, flowers and stuffed animals at a memorial Monday night.

    USC’s red-zone offense is in need of a jolt
    LOS ANGELES — The rivalry, slowly, was melting into a vat of sheer offensive sludge. Dreams of reclaiming the Victory Bell, on a cool Saturday night in Pasadena, were on their last gasp by the fourth quarter. On the sidelines, underneath his headset, USC coach Lincoln Riley sensed his program needed a spark.
    So on a second down, trailing by four with eight minutes left against UCLA, Riley called a play they had repped in practice only a couple of times.
    Quarterback Jayden Maiava whizzed a

    SEC losses help SMU, Indiana in latest College Football Playoff rankings
    By EDDIE PELLS AP National Writer
    The Southeastern Conference’s losses were almost everyone else’s gain in the College Football Playoff rankings, with SMU nudging its way into the top 12 and Indiana staying in the mix at No. 10 despite a lopsided loss of its own.
    The 12-team bracket released Tuesday placed undefeated Oregon on top for the fourth straight week. It did not include Alabama or Mississippi of the SEC, both of which suffered their third losses of the season last week.

    Trailblazing wheelchair racer, actor, inspirational speaker Jim Knaub dies at 68
    Jim Knaub, an accomplished athlete who became a wheelchair racing legend, actor and all-around inspiration after a motorcycle accident left him paralyzed from the waist down, has died. He was 68.
    Through 25 years of wheelchair racing, Knaub set countless records in the sport, but what his friends and family say left a bigger impact was his enduring message as an activist and speaker for people facing challenges — despite life’s challenges, just keep going.

    If you’ve ever wondered why U.S. presidential elections are held in November, it’s because that was the most convenient time for farmers. Spring, summer and fall were busy seasons for Americans who farmed for a living, so November was the best time to travel to the polls before harsh winter weather disenfranchised people who got around with horses and wagons.
    This Thanksgiving, we can all be grateful to our nation’s farming Framers for their foresight and vision. Somehow they k

    WASHINGTON (AP) — One year after the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol attack, Attorney General Merrick Garland said the Justice Department was committed to holding accountable all perpetrators “at any level” for “the assault on our democracy.” That bold declaration won’t apply to at least one person: Donald Trump.

    Typically morale is low on a football team when it is 0-5 entering its bye week and coming off a loss to a crosstown foe.
    When Portola lost to Northwood 20-9 on Sept. 20, it was a turning point that revived the Bulldogs’ season.

    That was a back-and-forth affair wherein the Ducks trailed by a goal, led by a goal and, ultimately, lost by a goal, as two Seattle tallies in 24 seconds to start the third period proved insuperable.

    The easiest way to explain the Chargers’ 30-23 loss Monday night to the Baltimore Ravens was that their defense was exposed at long last. Good against the Saints, Browns, Titans, etc., was one thing. Good against the Ravens was something else entirely, as we saw at SoFi Stadium.
