  As of Friday, Nov. 15, four congressional races — including a local matchup between Republican Michelle Steel and Democrat Derek Tran in the 45th Congressional District, who are separated by just 58 votes — remained too close to

  16-11-2024 21:20 via ocregister.com
  
  The Chargers have won three consecutive games, four out of five and six of nine overall this season. They have the NFL’s stingiest defense, a playmaking quarterback who is heating up at just the right moment with his arm and his legs and a coach whose reputation for winning precedes him.
  So, it wasn’t surprising that the powers that be shifted the Chargers’ game Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals at SoFi Stadium in the primetime slot. The Chargers are suddenly, and all at on

  LOS ANGELES — Sean McVay declined to name a starting center for the Rams’ game Sunday at the New England Patriots. It’s not that he hadn’t already made a decision, just a spot of gamesmanship ahead of the matchup.
  But regardless who is snapping the ball Sunday, whether it is free-agent acquisition Jonah Jackson for a second game in a row off injured reserve or a reversion to rookie Beaux Limmer, the fact the Rams are considering their options is a good indication of the c

  Q. Is there any way to get rid of clothes moths? I hate the smell of mothballs and would love to find an alternative way of protecting my wool sweaters.
  There are two types of clothes moths – those that produce webbing and those that produce cases.  Tineola bisselliella, the web-making moth, is the more common species. Tineola pelliomella produces cases (cocoons) and is somewhat less common.
  Usually, a moth infestation is discovered when you find holes in your favorite sweater. Occasi
