Douglas, Emmett & Co. realized that the best development is one that is embraced by the community and is approved quickly (time is money). Many developers come to a community and believe they can mislead the community or get approval without community support.
When we're touring a space, one of the first items they bring up is, 'Where can I build a studio?' said Blake Eckert, who leases CIM offices in L.A. Their studio offices also serve as marketing centers, with showrooms and meeting spaces where brands can host proprietary events not open to the public.
It's kind of a little local community hang spot as much as it is a retail store. You could buy analog cameras or photo books at the shop. If you're like me, you could browse in order to motivate yourself to dig your old film camera out of the closet. Or you could just hang out, talk art, and make friends.
I didn't even want to use my gloved hand because it was hot, so I just kicked it with my boot to kind of expose it. There was like red hot like coals that was still smoldering, and I even heard crackling.
Located just upstream from where the Arroyo Seco and Los Angeles River merge, Mount Washington has been home base to a former mayor, a world-famous yogi and the official witch of Los Angeles County. The Arroyo Seco - which, after all, begins near a place called Devil's' Gate - has always been a location known for the offbeat, a neighborhood that was keeping it weird before Portland, Ore., or Austin, Texas, ever was.
When Jody Hughes' daughter asked Adobe Express for Education, graphic design software provided by her teacher, to generate an image of "long stockings a red headed girl with braids sticking straight out," it produced nothing resembling the Swedish children's book character she had accurately described. Instead, using recently-added artificial intelligence, it generated sexualized imagery of women in lingerie and bikinis.
I fell in love with the TV show 60 Minutes as a child. I loved non-fiction storytelling. Because of where I lived, I got a chance to be on TV when I was in high school. I appeared as a student on Gene Autry's TV station, KTLA. I preferred the world of television to the world of film because it moves faster and there aren't long setup times.
I was not expecting this. I was blindsided, and it hurts. It cuts deep because I cared about what I did. I'm now processing what I'm going to do as a single mom to two kids. Life gets real when it gets real.
The contemporary Mediterranean-style home, built in 2011, sits on nearly a third of an acre in the Summerlin community with golf course and mountain views. Clad in dark hardwood, elaborately decorated interiors feature custom molding, paneled walls and mirrored ceilings.
Los Angeles has gone from being provincial to international in a very short time. It was still a small and very close community up until about 2010. After that, it really exploded in terms of the number of artists moving here, and I think it's because life in New York has become untenable for real artists.
Genice Horta, 51, said that neither the shelter nor the rescue group she worked for told her the dog, a Belgian Malinois named Maximus, had bitten a teenager and a shelter employee, sending both to the hospital. After six surgeries to repair the bones and nerves in her right arm, Horta was left with permanent damage, according to a brief by her attorneys in the lawsuit she filed in 2022.
Alexis Servin claims that the county Department of Children and Family Services should have known the toddler's father, Alfredo Muñoz Jr., and stepmother, Kelly Muñoz, presented an "extreme and foreseeable danger." The couple were charged with felony abuse of two children in November 2021.
We'll be sitting almost between 15 and 20 degrees above normal for the time of year. It's abnormally warm and will probably stay warm at least through the weekend before we actually cool down.
First subdivided in 1873 as East Los Angeles, it was carved out of the 17,000-plus acres of the old Spanish pueblo by developers seeking to create a middle-class residential neighborhood. To overcome the perception of most Angelenos that the region east of the river was a rusticated wilderness, lacking the amenities to which the burghers of Bunker Hill had grown accustomed, the developers installed water pipes to serve the new subdivision.
My shih tzu was a bright light and just fun and funny and had a great personality and everyone loved and adored him. Losing a dog is always hard, but when it's such a sweet soul like he was, it's especially hard.
So much has happened in this room, and it's had a lot of transformations. I got this home more than 20 years ago and it used to be more of a crazy party house. Then my husband had a big, spiritual 10 years when he was a real seeker, so we had a lot of Indian pujas here. It's gone from partying, to spiritual things, to now a lot of kids, dogs and music.
Denis has delivered at an elite level with historic consistency since the day he arrived, and he has helped us win multiple trophies. This new contract reflects that. We're proud of what he's accomplished here and are motivated to continue building on that success together.
It's times like these that make you realize, this is community. You know, this is having each other's back when we are all struggling. Every decade or so, it pops up again and they start kind of questioning our belonging. It's more important than ever to express yourself ... that you're not assimilating, you're not going to give up on your culture.
I'm proud to live in Canoga Park. What's wrong with it? Perhaps it's not as elegant as Woodland Hills or Sherman Oaks, but I've produced two wonderful children from Canoga Park. The markets have fed my family. The shops have clothed my children. It will always be Canoga Park to me.
A magnitude 3.5 earthquake was reported at 9:40 p.m. Sunday 13 miles from Rancho Palos Verdes, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The earthquake occurred 13 miles from Los Angeles, 14 miles from Palos Verdes Estates, 14 miles from Rolling Hills Estates and 14 miles from Avalon on Catalina Island. In the last 10 days, there has been one earthquake of magnitude 3.0 or greater centered nearby.
Some of the things that I want to do is try to help little kids to become more economically inclined to manage their own money. Stop wasting it all and look for the future. These knucklehead kids, they are our future, you know.
The state's vehicle code currently requires that cities and counties sell impounded vehicles that are worth more than $500 at auction. AB 630, which Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law in October, increased the financial threshold for L.A. and Alameda counties, allowing them to dismantle vehicles worth up to $4,000. That, in turn, spares those jurisdictions from going through the more cumbersome process of auctioning off the vehicles, backers of the bill said.
Cops in Los Angeles on Wednesday arrested five people in Corona on shocking charges of operating a multi-million dollar cargo theft ring. The LAPD said the suspects were collared in a long-running investigation that focused on a series of thefts targeting cargo and container chassis, which carry shipping containers for big-rig trucks. Cops, along with three other agencies executed search warrants on the suspects Wednesday and discovered an eye-popping amount of allegedly stolen loot.
Firefighters responded after several fireworks were shot from the bridge by an unidentified group of people, lighting up the sky and showering the asphalt with sparks as people got up close to take video and pictures. The Instagram-popular bridge has been the site of takeovers and taggers, arch climbers and copper-wire thieves since it was completed in July of 2022. Someone got a haircut as cars whizzed past.
Welcome to February's gym crunch time, when winter sports teams such as basketball are busy with playoffs and spring sports teams such as volleyball are gearing up for the start of their season. "It's pretty brutal," said 6-foot-8 volleyball standout Blake Fahlbusch, who would prefer surfing in the morning and practicing volleyball in the afternoon. Veteran coach Michael Boehle, sipping coffee, understands the routine is only temporary and does his best to get his players focused on their early morning routine.
Pressure built Tuesday on Casey Wasserman as head of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics organizing team after the city's mayor urged him to leave over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend. LA Mayor Karen Bass told CNN late Monday my opinion is that he should step down despite Wasserman getting support last week from the LA 2028 organizing board to stay. The issue has been a distraction for the International Olympic Committee this month since Wasserman's flirtatious emails from 2003 with Ghislaine Maxwell were published in a release of US government files days before the Milano Cortina Winter Games opened.
We are taking back the streets. We are taking back the power. Last year, my neighbor's teenage daughter was too scared to go to school because their home was broken into. Everything was stolen from them. Now we have kids who are happy to be outside and play on the streets. We went from a high level of crime in 2025 to zero once we got these cameras and warning signs installed.
And while Monday was a slow news day overall, it was fun to see JR Ritchie and Didier Fuentes named in the top 100 prospects at Fangraphs. While it is surprising that Cam Caminiti was not on the list, these three young arms appear to be the best of Atlanta's farm system currently. Their development will be a big story line this season.
