A 27-year-old man from San Dimas has been arrested after allegedly vandalizing a church in Newport Beach, causing tens of thousands of dollars in damage. The incident occurred Saturday morning at the United Methodist Christ Church by the Sea. Video footage from the church, built in the 1930’s, shows windows boarded up after the 27-year-old allegedly shattered stained glass windows that were given as gift to the church many years ago. Officials at Christ Church by the Sea estimate that the vandal caused $80,000-$100,000 worth of damage. Reverend Paul Capetz, a pastor of the church, told KTLA that when he was notified of the vandalism by police, he was in a state of shock. “When I got here and saw the damage with my own eyes, I felt like I had been punched in the gut,” Capetz said. “At first, I saw the damage outside, the windows all boarded up and then I walk into the sanctuary, and I just couldn’t believe my eyes. There was shattered glass everywhere, an...Sacramento Kings probe 'racial bias' claims after rapper E-40 ejected

The Sacramento Kings are investigating allegations from a Bay Area hip-hop star that “racial bias” led to him being kicked out of his seat during a playoff game against the Golden State Warriors.The rapper E-40 said in a statement that he was heckled throughout the game Saturday night and addressed one heckler "in an assertive but polite manner” before security guards came and ordered him to leave the arena."Unfortunately, it was yet another reminder that — despite my success and accolades as a musician and entrepreneur — racial bias remains prevalent," he said in a statement. "Security saw a disagreement between a Black man and a white woman and immediately assumed that I was at fault.”The Kings said they are investigating the circumstances behind the ejection.E-40 escorted out of Golden 1 Center (Photo courtesy of @linebackrschool)"The Sacramento Kings take these claims seriously and are investigating the facts and circumstances regarding the situation, as we do anytime an accusat...What to know about 1st test flight of SpaceX's big Starship

Elon Musk’s SpaceX is about to take its most daring leap yet with a round-the-world test flight of its mammoth Starship.It's the biggest and mightiest rocket ever built, with the lofty goals of ferrying people to the moon and Mars.Jutting almost 400 feet (120 meters) into the South Texas sky, Starship could blast off as early as Monday, with no one aboard. Musk's company got the OK from the Federal Aviation Administration on Friday. It will be the first launch with Starship's two sections together. Early versions of the sci-fi-looking upper stage rocketed several miles into the stratosphere a few years back, crashing four times before finally landing upright in 2021. The towering first-stage rocket booster, dubbed Super Heavy, will soar for the first time.For this demo, SpaceX won’t attempt any landings of the rocket or the spacecraft. Everything will fall into the sea.“I’m not saying it will get to orbit, but I am guaranteeing excitement. It won’t be boring,” Musk promised at a Mor...Lupe Fuentes Gets Miseducated

Every song in this album takes you on a journey. The stories are so deep and relatable. They’re about love, pain, survival, and power dynamics.Lauryn Hill has always fascinated me as an artist and as a thinker, a woman living and speaking authentically. Not a lot of people are that brave.This album was on repeat during my divorce in 2020. I have many memories of listening to it in my car, being in extreme pain, and feeling free simultaneously.

View the original article about The Best Foods To Pair With CBD Oil at Real Tested CBD.CBD edibles are one of the most exciting categories in the hemp industry. Every week, it seems like a hemp brand is putting out a wild new CBD-infused treat to enjoy. However, just because you could find CBD in many foods doesn’t mean it pairs well with every product. Indeed, a few reports suggest CBD has the best bioavailability in certain edibles.When Pairing CBD With Food, Fat Is Your Friend!Whenever you’re thinking of mixing CBD oil with food, you must focus on the fat content. The higher the fat in your meal, the better the odds you will enjoy CBD’s maximum benefits.Please remember that cannabinoids like CBD are fat-soluble. CBD will cling to fat cells, which increases the likelihood you’ll absorb CBD when you eat it. By contrast, when you put CBD oil in water, the cannabinoids will separate out. Even though there are CBD-infused waters and seltzers on today’s ma...SpaceX waves off first test flight of massive Starship; another historic try could come Wednesday

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 16:31:46 GMT
Shopping tip: If you spy a lumpy bag of bacon ends in the market, buy it. Bacon ends are key to this salad, which essentially takes a classic BLT (bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich) and tosses it into a big salad bowl as a deconstructed version of itself. It’s not a vegetarian’s dream, admittedly, but for bacon lovers, it’s heavenly.You can find bacon ends in vacuum-packed pouches in the deli and meat departments of your market. At first glance, the contents of the hefty packages, jammed with irregular hunks of bacon, are unidentifiable. They are not the neatly fanned bacon slices with which you are familiar. Bacon ends are just that — the hunks and ends of the meat that are trimmed and (gasp) discarded during production of those neatly arranged bacon strips. I am here to tell you that the chunks are revelatory. They are thick and meaty, with lots of pointy edges that will crisp to perfection when cooked.The best way to cook bacon ends is in the oven or on a...Bay Area transplant being tormented by persistent robin attacking windows

DEAR JOAN: After 40-plus years in the Bay Area, I have moved to the countryside east of Seattle. My house is surrounded by trees and has large windows in all rooms. For the past three weeks, a male robin has been hitting my windows mostly in the mornings, all morning.I figured he saw a reflection of a male bird in the window that could be a rival, so I have: closed the blinds; put up netting on the outside; put up paper on the outside to block the reflection; put up paper on the very few places that didn’t have paper, as he found every one of the open ones; cut out black shapes of predator birds and taped them to the outside paper.He has progressively gone to the adjacent window, then to the next, then the next. He is working his way around the outside of the house. I have lunged at him when I saw him coming and tried to scare him, but he keeps coming back. He is not hurting himself, but I just wonder if there is something else I can do to deter him, or if he will just stop wh...San Jose: Four arrested after police sideshow bust
