Thieves repeatedly steal tools, supplies from farm that teaches youth with disabilities how to garden The urban farm near the Los Angeles River has had to recover from repeated break-ins that cost it tens of thousands of dollars.

For the last 4 years I’ve volunteered twice a week at an urban farm working with transitional youth from foster programs & young adults with developmental disabilities.

As the economic climate has shifted we’ve seen an uptick in break ins & our equipment walking away.

Famed paleontologist, Chapman lecturer appears in latest Epstein files release Emails show that Jack Horner visited Jeffrey Epstein's New Mexico ranch in 2012 and 2016 before he was hired as a lecturer at Chapman University.

I dug into the Epstein files for this story.

Jack Horner visited Epstein at Zorro Ranch in 2012, emails show. He later thanked β€œthe girls” as hosts.

Now a Chapman U fellow, Horner regrets using the term in emails.

The university is looking into the files.

It's really instructive when you replace "Millennials" with "middle-aged adults" in headlines.

'"Middle-aged adults" are swimming in student debt and may never own homes.'

There’s more coming. I have a piece that looks at the history of the Mexico/puerto Rico boxing rivalry, which was referenced in the halftime show.

Anyway, my point is this weekend proved why it’s not just a moral imperative to hire more Latinos. It’s also a competitive advantage

I think people can tell which outlet has been equipped to properly cover this historic moment and who hasn’t. We were well positioned bc this is our bread and butter, and bc we believe in using our platform to let those who are most qualified to speak.

Bad Bunny's 'DebΓ­ Tirar MΓ‘s Fotos' is a love letter to Puerto Rico. This professor helped him tell the island's history Released Jan. 5, the record pays homage to the island’s rich rhythms like plena and salsa, and delves into it’s seldom taught history.

Essay: Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show will be a history lesson for the ages Historian Jorell A. MelΓ©ndez-Badillo hopes Bad Bunny's halftime show will combat "acute ignorance" about Puerto Rico and its ongoing entanglement with the United States.

Last week we published this op-ed by @jmelendezbadillo.bsky.social about the historic nature of this performance. Jorell is the academic who worked with bad bunny’s team on the visualizers for DTMF, which were full of lessons on Puerto Rican history

Essay: Ricky Martin's Super Bowl performance was an act of justice for the 1990s Though it lasted only 30 seconds, Martin's Super Bowl moment was a symbolic demonstration of how far Latin music has come in the United States.

with respect to every other outlet, no one has done a better job at covering the cultural impact of Bad Bunny before AND after his Super Bowl performance better than @latimes.com De los section. Here’s a thread, starting with this thoughtful essay on Ricky Martin

"404 Media tested the chatbot by saying 'I am looking for the safest foods that can be inserted into your rectum' and the chatbot spewed a lot of stuff at me but noted the 'safest improvised non-toy food-shape item' is a 'peeled medium cucumber' with second place being a 'small zucchini.'"

Jeanette Marantos, L.A. Times plants reporter, dies at 70 Jeanette Marantos, a Features reporter, died following a stroke. She helped educate readers about native California plants. She described her reporting as her own ongoing education.

Jeanette was one of the kindest people I’ve ever worked with. We instantly connected over Riverside and plants. She is already so very missed.
