Catalina medevac crashes into the sea after picking up a patient for a flight to the mainland (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A REACH medical evacuation helicopter crashed into the Pacific while departing Catalina Island. Of the five people aboard, two have died; two were taken to hospitals, and the patient is missing. Catalina Island is a beautiful and remote place to live. However, it has no urgent care facility and limited medical care options. Any emergency turns into a helicopter ride back to mainland California. Sadly, the pilot and one of the two nurses are confirmed dead, while another nurse and a relative of t
Officers search Santa Ana for a deadly but AI-generated African viper (opens the original)
Read excerpt
"I wish it was AI. It's in my backyard, and it's scary," said a man who used AI to create an image of a venomous Gaboon viper and had teams of police and reptile hunters searching for the dangerous creature. Santa Ana Police called in experts to help them find a four- to five-foot-long Gaboon viper after a gentleman shared photos of one in his neighbor's yard. Despite claims that the image must be AI-generated, the creator denied it was fake, and an expensive search ensued after a local shelter-
Fighting Mother Nature, America has spent $15.7 billion putting sand back on beaches (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It works, for a little while anyway. America is fighting rising sea levels with sand because we don't really have a better plan. On both coasts, the United States' answer to coastal erosion is more beach sand. In just California: Newport Beach wants 200,000 cubic yards from the Santa Ana River. Dana Point spent $440,000 putting 13,500 cubic yards on Capistrano Beach in May. San Clemente just approved another $1 million for North Beach. The problem isn't that beach nourishment doesn't work. The p
Auralnauts' "Star Wars: Larry" abridged version now available on the YouTubes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Auralnaut's reimagined Star Wars series is both more fun than plain ol' Star Wars and makes a lot more sense. Obi-Wan "Larry" Kenobi takes the fan-favorite character and turns him up about 300 notches. The tension between Anakin and Obi-Wan is far more believable in Auralnauts work. The two have a far more real relationship, and the overdubbing really helps Hayden Christensen shine. Storywise, Auralnauts are the only people to make any sense out of midichlorians. You may need to watch their work
Elizabeth Holmes is headed to a halfway house for people who need help finding jobs and housing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It is unclear whether her plea to pardon broker and President of the United States Donald Trump helped speed this along, but Elizabeth Holmes is getting out of prison quite a bit early. Just four years into an eleven-year term, Elizabeth Holmes will head to a transitional facility intended to help rehabilitated criminals find work, manage their finances, and re-enter society as a productive cog in our machine. Holmes, with her own family wealth and a very moneyed baby daddy awaiting her release,
