According to KTLA news and the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner, beloved KCAL-TV evening news anchor Chauncy Glover died of an accidental “acute intoxication” from methamphetamine and chloroethane.

A cruise vacation didn't go exactly as planned for Jason and Tammy Merritt when their luggage never showed up at their cabin on Carnival Magic. According to news reports, the incident resulted in a lifetime ban for another passenger and a complex legal situation.

My mom married my Texan stepdad two years ago after splitting with my dad (who moved to Florida). My stepdad’s ultra-conservative—he hates that I’m applying to art school (“useless degree!”), shames me for dating (my boyfriend’s 25 and a mechanic!), and constantly trashes my mom’s “California parenting.” Now that Mom’s pregnant, he’s pushing me to leave our Arizona home by August when I graduate. Mom says she’s “too stressed” to stand up to him, even though I planned to live here while working part-time.

I thought buying a home was the ultimate goal, the smart investment. But now? I feel completely stuck. I got approved for $400K, put down $100K, and still ended up with a nearly $3,000 monthly payment. At first, I told myself it was worth it—but the reality hit hard.

Sharing my petty (but effective) HOA revenge story. For years, I lived in a neighborhood where parking in front of your own house was banned. I followed the rule grudgingly… until I got slapped with a $50 fine for a car I didn’t even own. The kicker? The car belonged to a random visitor parked briefly in front of my house.

Some Floridians know that there are several nationally-known restaurant chains that are headquartered in the Sunshine State. Examples are Miller's Ale House, 4 Rivers Smokehouse, and Sonny's Barbecue. Another example is Central Florida's Bloomin' Brands - which is the parent company of several well-known eateries. Unfortunately, it recently announced that it will be cutting Florida jobs.

Okay, let’s be real—money changes everything. Especially how you treat men. Before, I’d tolerate their bullshit for weeks, nodding along while they forgot to text me back or blew off plans. But now? Mic drop. I’ve reached my limit. If a guy cancels on me twice, I’m done. My inner scoreboard pops up: ​Minus 10 points. Next time? ​Game over.

I’m a Taurus, and my boyfriend is a Gemini. We’ve been together for five years—five whole years—and this man just told me he’s “not sure he ever really felt loved.” Meanwhile, I’ve been here, solid as a rock, showing up, remembering every little thing he likes, sticking around through all his chaos. But apparently, since I don’t throw grand speeches or act like I’m in a rom-com, my love doesn’t count?

He was best known for his role as Kinchole on TV's Hogan's Heroes (CBS, 1965-1971) and expanded his career to become an acclaimed director and producer. He died tragically of kidney failure in 2008 at only 76 years old. His name was Ivan Dixon, and this is his story.

CALIFORNIA – A team from the Air Force and Space Force worked together to test-launch an unarmed Minuteman III missile, early February 19, at Vandenberg Space Force Base in Santa Barbara County.

I've always considered Anna my best friend. We've been through so much together over the years, from celebrating each other's achievements to getting through tough break - ups.

After much deliberation, I made the heartbreaking decision to give up my cat. We had been together for seven or eight years—since she was just a tiny kitten fitting in my palm, growing into a ten-pound companion. Over the years, I poured thousands into her care, but life doesn’t always go the way we plan.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a young dog named Coco who is searching for her forever family. This adorable 3-month-old puppy may be small in size, weighing in at approximately 4.5 pounds, but she makes up for it with her endless energy and loving personality. Despite her tiny stature, even smaller than the resident cats in her foster home, Coco approaches life with curiosity and enthusiasm. "She has bounds of energy, loves playing with all types of toys, and then ultimately adores snuggling up on her foster mom's lap to get lots of pets," explains Sandy Paws Rescue.

When Tension Took Control… During a Pap Smear … 🤣. I went in for a routine pap smear, nervous as hell. The room was cold, the speculum felt like a foreign object, and my mind was racing with worst-case scenarios. Then, mid-exam, I felt this sudden urge to fart—nothing I could control. My face turned tomato red, the tech froze mid-procedure, and I heard her whisper to the nurse, “Did she eat beans for breakfast?”

Representatives from the Denver Zoo attended the Land Use, Transportation, and Infrastructure Committee of the Denver City Council on Tuesday. They made a pitch for eliminating lower admission fees in the winter after this season. The committee agreed to the change. The fee structure still must be approved by the full council.

My little toy poodle, Charlie, doesn’t understand why his playmate hasn’t shown up again. A few days ago, he met another tiny poodle at the park, and they played together like they had known each other forever—chasing each other, rolling in the grass, and sharing their water bowl like best friends.

I recently found and adopted the most adorable stray dog, and I want to share not just his cuteness but also some important lessons I learned during the process in Northern California!

Avoid condos, townhouses, or any property with an HOA—unless you enjoy micromanagement. Our HOA fined us 275 for leaving our trash 、can out overnight and 450 for planting a "non-approved" shrub. They dictated everything: grass height, mailbox color, even our Christmas lights’ timing.

If you rely on Section 8 or invest in rental properties, you’ll notice this. They’ve changed the way they calculate voucher amounts, and it could seriously impact renters and landlords.

Cruise embarkation day is a day of excitement and logistics. But when is the best time to board? It's a common question first-time cruisers often ask me. A recent Reddit post sparked an insighful discussion on this topic, with a clear consensus emerging: get on as early as possible, and for a very specific reason – securing onboard reservations.

I left my Corgi, Benny, with a friend for a few days while I was out of town. My friend has a house full of dogs, so I thought Benny would have a great time socializing. I was excited to bring him home today, but the second we walked through the door… nothing. No tail wags, no happy zoomies—just pure, cold silence.

Showed up to my date, and this man was in a full suit… but it looked like he had been cuddling a cat army before arriving. Lint. Everywhere. I ignored it and took him to my favorite coffee spot. Dude wouldn’t even go inside. Fine. I ordered my latte, literally handed over my money, and he swoops in like, “Oh, I got this.” Sir, the barista already has my card. THEN he buys himself an ice cream. Just for him. Cool. Says he wants to “walk and talk.” We walk for 45 seconds before he dramatically sits on a park bench like we just finished a marathon. Two hours? No way. I bailed in one. What's the weirdest date move y’all have ever seen?

Lately, my boss has been sending emails late at night, around 10 PM, and seems to expect an immediate reply. At first, I thought it was just a one - off situation, maybe an urgent project that couldn't wait until morning. But it's become a regular occurrence.

Check out this week’s Aldi grocery bill—thankfully, prices haven't been too crazy this month, but it's still a struggle! Here's what I managed to grab:. Chili Peppers: $0.95 (1 lb)

In today's increasingly turbulent geopolitical landscape, the possibility of a conflict between superpowers like China and the United States looms large. As two of the most powerful nations in the world, both countries boast formidable military capabilities. But who has the biggest military? Let's delve into the details to gain a deeper understanding of this crucial issue.

Folks, check out this epic fail from my landlord: Rent shot up by $275 in January, and their “repairs” are straight-up crayon-level disasters. Instead of fixing the rotting wooden columns, they just hammered tons of nails into the base like they’re building a Pinterest project. Then, to cover up the white paint nightmare on our lawn, they rinsed paint buckets directly on the grass and… ​

I thought I was buying a home from the owner—turns out, it was tenant-occupied, and I only found out two weeks before closing. The landlord had given them until 5 PM on closing day to vacate, but as the days passed, it was clear they weren’t making any effort to leave.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a small dog named Jess (after the popular 2011 TV show New Girl starring Zooey Deschanel as Jessica Day) who is searching for her forever family. This one-year-old Chihuahua, currently weighing approximately 8 pounds, has already shown remarkable progress in her foster home, where she's been thriving for the past week. “Jess has been in her foster home for a week and has made friends with the resident dog! She loves to play with balls and squeaky toys,” explains Sandy Paws Rescue.

This Craigslist ‘Landlord’ Wasn’t Human—Here’s How I Didn’t Get Scammed (And You Can Too)" So here’s the deal: Last month, I found this “perfect” $1,200 studio on Craigslist in Brooklyn. The photos looked legit—cozy, sunny, even had a little plant on the windowsill. The “landlord,” Mike, said he was a handyman who’d just moved out. Cool, right? Until…
