Looking Glass: Honey, I just noticed that you need new windshield wipers A couple had a domestic dispute outside of a residence in Lauderhill, Fla., during which the man climbed up onto the hood of her Mercedes to keep her from departing. Despite this, she drove nearly 20 miles on the interstate, with him clinging to the hood, at speeds of up to 70 mph. At one point he called 911 on his cell phone, telling a police operator, “I’m on top of the car. I really need help.”AND HOW DID THAT WORK OUT, MA’AM?: A woman told police that she had set fire to her apartment building in Sandy, Utah, because she wanted “to burn away the negative energy, sadness and pain in her life.”SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD DEAL, WHAT’S THE CATCH?: A woman rented a 2022 Toyota Camry in Humble, Texas, and tried to sell it online for $10,000.BUT LADIES, I THOUGHT WE HAD SOMETHING SPECIAL: A man had what police called an “entertaining” evening at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Fla., with two busty ladies, which ended when he took them back to his townhouse in Pompano Beach.

Pat Leonard’s NFL Notes: It would be foolish to think Miami Dolphins aren’t looking to upgrade at quarterback

Pat Leonard’s NFL Notes: It would be foolish to think Miami Dolphins aren’t looking to upgrade at quarterback Tua Tagovailoa can’t be the Miami Dolphins starting quarterback in 2023.Whether it’s ‘Tampering Tom’ Brady or Lamar Jackson, rules-breaking Dolphins owner Stephen Ross has to go all-in on a star QB to maximize one of the NFL’s best receiving corps led by Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.Especially if the Jets acquire Aaron Rodgers from the Packers, are the Dolphins really going to keep the injury-prone Tagovailoa in place as their starter, sign a mid-level veteran backup and simply cross their fingers?“You can’t count on Tua,” one league source said, citing the QB’s concussions among other durability issues.The Dolphins picked up Tagovailoa’s $23 million fifth-year option for 2024 on Friday. But sticking with him at QB will not suffice, and it is incongruent with Ross’ rabid recent pursuit of an upgrade at the position.What? Ross thinks it’s worth a $1.5 million fine and a league suspension to tamper with Brady in ...

Storm breaches California river’s levee, hundreds evacuate WATSONVILLE, Calif. (AP) — Authorities ordered more than 1,500 people to evacuate early Saturday from a Northern California agricultural community famous for its strawberry crop after the Pajaro River’s levee was breached by flooding from a new atmospheric river pummeling the state.First responders and the California National Guard rescued more than 50 people overnight from the unincorporated Monterey Bay community of Pajaro along California’s Central Coast. One video showed a member of the Guard helping a driver out of a car trapped by floodwaters up to their waists.“We were hoping to avoid and prevent this situation, but the worst case scenario has arrived with the Pajaro River overtopping and levee breaching at about midnight,” wrote Luis Alejo, chair of the Monterey County Board of Supervisors, on Twitter. Alejo called the flooding “massive,” saying it has impacted Pajaro’s 1,700 residents — many of them Latino farmworkers — and that the damage will take ...

Relentless winter brings pros, cons for Tahoe ski resorts

Relentless winter brings pros, cons for Tahoe ski resorts RENO, Nev. (AP) — Last winter, most ski resorts at Lake Tahoe had to postpone their usual November openings because there wasn’t enough snow.This season, several have been forced to close at times because there’s been too much.A relentless winter has dumped more than 50 feet (15 meters) of snow on mountain resorts around the lake over the past three months, along the California-Nevada line.The latest Sierra storm, packing more heavy snow, winds gusting in excess of 100 mph (160 kph) and even some flooding, forced about a half-dozen to shut down on Friday.Even when the resorts have been open for business, storms have prompted frequent closures of mountain highways and the main U.S. Interstate connecting San Francisco and Reno to Lake Tahoe atop the Sierra Nevada, making it nearly impossible at times for out-of-towners to make their way to the slopes.But locals who’ve been skiing at Tahoe for decades say any disruptions are offset by the premium, powdery snow conditions and the real p...

Oregon eyes mandate for climate change lessons in schools

Oregon eyes mandate for climate change lessons in schools SALEM, Ore. (AP) — Oregon lawmakers are aiming to make the state the second in the nation to mandate climate change lessons for K-12 public school students, further fueling U.S. culture wars in education.Dozens of Oregon high schoolers submitted support of the bill, saying they care about climate change deeply. Some teachers and parents say teaching climate change could help the next generation better confront it, but others want schools to focus on reading, writing and math after test scores plummeted post-pandemic.Schools across the U.S. have found themselves at the center of a politically charged battle over curriculum and how matters such as gender, sex education and race should be taught — or whether they should be taught at all. One of the bill’s chief sponsors, Democratic Sen. James Manning, said even elementary students have told him climate change is important to them.“We’re talking about third and fourth graders having a vision to understand how this world is c...
