Dash-cam footage from a Tesla captured the moment a vehicle on a Southern California freeway ran over a tire that had just come off a nearby pickup truck, launching the car into a midair spin. The incident occurred on Mar. 23 on the 118 Freeway in Chatsworth and was caught on Anoop Khatra’s dashboard camera. Video shows traffic moving along the roadway when a dark-colored vehicle approaches a pickup truck that had just transitioned into the middle lane. Moments later, the truck’s front driver’s side tire pops off right in front of the dark-colored car. The driver of the dark-colored vehicle runs over the tire and shoots into a midair spin before crashing back onto the freeway hood first and rolling back right side up. As if that weren't scary enough, video also shows the tire coming back into frame and slamming into the wreckage of the vehicle as it skids to a stop.

The B-52’sThe B-52’s (Warner Bros)Annabel Lee Dances This Mess Around: L.A. alt-rocker Annabel Lee told us about her love for a B-52’s gem.(Warner Bros)Annabel Lee: There are few albums that have influenced me more than the self titled 1979 album by the B52’s. My parents were really great about giving me a select few CD’s that would end up informing my taste, and this was one of them. Honestly, as a singer, my goal is to sound like Kate, Cindy, and Fred all in one.Firstly, track three, “Dance This Mess Around,” is my favorite song EVER. It was the song you’d catch me lip-syncing and writhing around to as puberty coursed through my veins. The way that Cindy screams and growls the lead vocal in that song, commanding, sexy, volatile, and out of fucking control, changed my life when I heard it. It awakened a part of myself that was soon to unravel in my teen years, and still continues to stir me to this day every single time I hear it.The B-52’s brand of punk/art music...Everything You Need To Know About Delta-8 THC

OAKLAND — Speed, sunshine and chaos helped bring Major League Baseball back to the Bay Area for Sunday’s Bay Bridge Series exhibition game between the Giants and A’s.Just more than 11,000 tickets were sold on a bright afternoon, when a uniquely-modern brand of baseball was on display as the Giants out-hit and out-ran the A’s in a 9-5 win.It was a weird one.The umpires, now busy tracking such things as the number of seconds before a hitter steps into the box and the number of toes touching the outfield grass, lost track of the outs in the sixth inning. With a man on first base, A’s infielder Tony Kemp fielded a throw from third and touched second for a force out, but never made the attempt to turn a double play and instead ran off the field. His team followed.The obedient Giants defenders replaced them on the infield dirt before asking the umpires for clarification. The call was rightfully reversed.On the field, the play was choppy. That’s baseball in March for you. At le...Photos: Earthquakes play Toronto FC to a scoreless draw

DEAR JOAN: From time to time, we have found a Western fence lizard in our garage, but the one we found in late fall last year was very lethargic. Over the weeks, he would be found in various locations, but never one that was close to a possible exit point.After doing a little research we realized he was in the state of brumation, similar to hibernation in mammals but still needing water. So we put down a couple of shallow containers of water. We had become attached to our little guy when, sadly, in early March he died.What more might we have done?— Edward Reed, SunnyvaleDEAR EDWARD: It sounds like you did your best to help him. Fence lizards only live about seven years, and they are a favorite snack of various animals, including the endangered Alameda whipsnake. The garage probably was not the best place for it to live, even if the lizard thought it was.Fence lizards are starting to emerge from brumation now. You can create habitats for them by stacking pieces of broken clay p...TasteFood: Good things come in slow-cooked packages

I won’t lie: This chili takes three hours to make. Now, before you roll your eyes, just hear me out. When you make this rich and meaty black bean stew, you will be rewarded with a comforting, deeply flavored chili, tinged with smoke and fragrant with spice. Your family will be grateful, your guests will be impressed and any neighbors in proximity to the aromas wafting from your kitchen window will be quite envious. In fact, you might want to share a bowl with them.If this is not enticing enough, here is more good news: While the chili-making process will take several hours, most of the time will require little effort from you in the food-prep department. This chili is self-sufficient. It will do most of the work itself, simmering and bubbling away in the oven, allowing the meat to tenderize in a heady, smoky ragout, absorbing the flavors and mingling in a swirling brew of beer, tomato and spice. It will generously make you feel useful by asking for an occasional stir; otherwis...California’s LGBTQ+ kids in the crosshairs as a surge of bills targeting gender identity reaches record high

For most of junior year, 16-year-old Ace Roman’s mornings have started inside the “Fit Closet” — a wardrobe in the parking lot of Skyline High School.Roman, who identifies as non-binary, would try on men’s pants, women’s skirts, and everything in between, experimenting with whatever felt best that day. Roman’s friends would do the same, with many pulling on clothing they never would have felt comfortable wearing at home.The Fit Closet, designed by Oakland nonprofit Youth Together, was created to help students explore their gender identity in a safe, comfortable space. But across the country, a record number of bills targeting LGBTQ+ youth has put programs like the Fit Closet at risk. There have been bills banning trans girls from competing in women’s sports at schools, prohibiting students from using bathrooms that don’t match their biological gender, and restricting discussion or education about gender and sexuality, among others.And according to young people and ...Latest news
