• Galaxy fall to Sporting KC on own goal

  05-05-2025 04:36 via ocregister.com
  
  KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Los Angeles Galaxy defender Maya Yoshida had the only score on Sunday night, unfortunately, it was an own goal that led to a 1-0 victory for Sporting Kansas City — continuing the worst start by a defending champion in league history.
  The Galaxy (0-8-3) are still looking for their first victory 11 matches into the season and even a 3-0-2 record in five previous matchups with Sporting KC (3-7-1) didn’t help.
  Yoshida’s own goal came in the 13th minute.

• Dodgers’ rally falls short in loss to Braves

  05-05-2025 04:23 via ocregister.com
  
  ATLANTA — The last team bus left Truist Park for the Dodgers’ hotel at 2:20 a.m. Sunday, after the longest day of the season – a three-hour rain delay followed by a three-hour game that didn’t even start until after 10 o’clock Saturday night.
  Late nights like that often lead to hangovers, and the Dodgers managed just four hits in the first six innings Sunday night, coming up short in a 4-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves.
  The loss (their first in six meetings with the Br

• Dodgers giving Michael Conforto time to work out of deep slump

  05-05-2025 02:31 via ocregister.com
  
  ATLANTA — A year ago, the Dodgers signed a veteran outfielder to a one-year contract and hit it big when Teoscar Hernandez had an All-Star season and won a Silver Slugger award as one of the National League’s most productive outfielders.
  This one isn’t working out as well.
  Michael Conforto signed a one-year, $17 million contract with the Dodgers last winter, stepping into Hernandez’s shoes (with Hernandez taking his new three-year, $66 million contract with him to right f

  Who remembers the times in our younger years when we were challenged to create a new way to serve ground beef? Instead of the same old meatballs, meatloaves, hamburgers or chili, I gambled on trying tacos, and my family loved them.
  Today there are many bougie ways to make tacos.

  ANAHEIM — In hopes of being in a golden state after a long stay in California, the promising stretch has opened more bust than boom for the Angels.
  If a sunny disposition was what the Angels were looking for while on familiar turf, the just-completed weekend was instead dreary with clouds, light rain and soggy developments on the field.
  With the relaxed travel situation, manager Ron Washington hoped his club would start “grinding.” He was looking forward to “playing the g

  The Clippers’ conundrum: They’re good, but they’re not good enough.
  Start with James Harden. He carried them to the postseason – as the fifth seed in the hyper-competitive Western Conference, no less! He was the guy who shouldered the load for 79 games, leading the Clippers to a good season, a 50-win season, a better-than-expected season, a fun season! But he’s not that guy. He’s not someone who’s going to get them a championship, or even past the first

• Advocates push for mandatory retrofitting of existing homes in fire zones

  04-05-2025 17:30 via ocregister.com
  
  For years, fire prevention groups have pushed residents to harden homes in wildfire-prone areas.
  With the frequency and severity of such blazes on the rise, people need to replace old vents, roofs and windows with upgrades that protect their home against a whirlwind of heat and embers during a conflagration, they say.
  Yet limited incentives exist to spur homeowners to take on the expense of such upgrades.

  California lawmakers continue to fret about the state’s overly expensive housing market—something causing many renters and homeowners to be “cost burdened,” as the jargon puts it. Per the Public Policy Institute of California, “More than half of the state’s renters—and four in 10 mortgaged homeowners—spend 30% or more of their household income on housing.” We top the nation, but not in a good way.

  To whoever is taking the Sunday newspaper from my driveway about once a month, we need to talk.

  A federal judge has determined that two San Bernardino County sheriff’s deputies were not culpable in the death of a suicidal schizophrenic woman who died after she suffocated herself at the West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga.
  In a ruling Nov. 25 that was disclosed last week by the Sheriff’s Department, U.S. District Court Judge Jesus G. Bernal dismissed, with prejudice, a wrongful death lawsuit filed initially in August 2021 in Riverside by the father of 24-year-old Ch

  President Donald Trump’s first 100 days in office have not exactly gone to plan. So many of the policies coming out of the White House should strike one as absurdities that are either blatantly illegal or obviously won’t work. That hasn’t stopped Trump from trying and, where most can simply reflect for a moment to learn that those policies are idiotic, he has had to learn the hard way by way of market backlash and over 200 lawsuits.

  By Kevin Hardy, Stateline.org
  Missouri Republicans may take their tax-cutting efforts to new heights this year as lawmakers consider exempting profits from the sale of stocks, bonds and real estate from state income taxes.
  Part of a broader push to eliminate the state income tax altogether, legislation making its way through the Capitol would provide an unprecedented benefit to the wealthy by excluding capital gains, the long-term earnings from the sale of assets. If approved, tax experts say, t
