The Georgian, the famed, turquoise-colored hotel overlooking the pier in Santa Monica, Calif., has come under new ownership for the first time since 1991. With the assistance of Hodges Ward Elliott, a joint venture of BLVD Hospitality, Global Mutual and ESI Ventures acquired the historic 84-key property from 4DS LP for an undisclosed amount.

The Georgian first opened its doors at 1415 Ocean Ave. in 1933 and has welcomed a long parade of famous guests in the decades since. The eight-story hotel, designed by architect Eugene Durfee in the Romanesque Revival and Art Deco styles, was the site of a Prohibition-era basement speakeasy and operated as an upscale apartment community in the late 1960s, before returning to its status as an iconic lodging destination. Today, the hotel is also home to the popular Veranda Restaurant, as well as roughly 1,100 square feet of meeting and event space.
The new ownership relied on HWE's Tony Malk, Brett Katz, Diana Simpson and Jordan Kirkbride for representation in the off-market transaction. Along with its partners, BLVD, which has a strong record in historic renovations and adaptive reuse projects, plans to restore the hotel to its original splendor. According to a second quarter 2020 report by Lodging Econometrics, "Many hotel owners who have capital on hand are taking this opportunity of decreased demand to upgrade and renovate their hotels."
Sales slump
COVID-19 has wreaked havoc on the hotel industry and consequently, hotel investment sales activity. "In response to plummeting revenues and increased uncertainty, hotel trading came to an abrupt halt in the second quarter, with year-over-year activity down 98 percent in April," according to a report by CBRE Econometric Advisors. "The additional risk of hotel investment demands compensation for the prospective hotel buyer, and this has driven a wedge between bid and ask prices."
The pandemic's continued impact on hotel transaction volume is evident in the short list of deals and transaction closings that have transpired thus far during the third quarter. Of particular note, the Budccini/Pollin Group purchased the Renaissance Baltimore Harborplace Hotel in Baltimore for $80 million in July, taking the property off the hands of Sunstone Hotel Investors Inc., which had added the asset to its portfolio for approximately $157 million in 2005.

Respawn has created a solo mode that offers a perfect way to learn and test the physics, mechanics and systems of the game while actually feeling like a justifiable and engrossing experience in its own right.
The game's movement comes in two flavors – auto-sprint and manual – with the second one requiring you to click in the left analog stick to manually move from running into a full on pelt.
Pilots are considered the elite of the Frontier Militia and the IMC, so since the game often tries to recreate full, dynamic battles it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise to learn not every soldier on the field is player-controlled.
Anti-Titan weapons in Titanfall 2 aren't as all-powerful as they might seem so switching out your primary weapon for one when facing a Titan can often end up in another death for you.
Chucking them into busy corridors can bag you loads of easy extra kills, especially if you're getting overwhelmed by Pilot and Grunts.

Challenges to the Prevention of Money laundering Act #16: SG Tushar Mehta Explains Evolution of Money Laundering
Challenges to the Prevention of Money Laundering Act
| 23rd Feb 2022
On February 23rd 2022, Justices A. M. Khanwilkar, Dinesh Maheshwari and C. T. Ravikumar continued to hear challenges to various provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002.
The Bench has spent all month hearing the petitioners argue that the provisions for bail, search and seizure and summons give the Enforcement Directorate unchecked investigative powers to the detriment of the rights of the accused. More than a hundred petitioners, most of whom are accused under the PMLA, have challenged the Act in this case. The Union government's defense of the Act was heard today.
Yesterday the Court heard Mr. Abhimanyu Bhandari on behalf of an intervenor. He argued that against the wide definition of money laundering in S 3 of the Act. The Court will continue to hear the petitioners today.
Solicitor General Mr. Tushar Mehta took the Court through the evolution of the legal regime on money laundering. He narrated the story of Al Capone, who used laundromats in the United States, where money could be deposited without detection or accountability making it difficult for the state to track. Hence the term 'laundering' of money.
He then went on to explain the validity of the 2002 Act arises from global events that led to money laundering being recognised as a menace. First, in 1981, the concept of 'proceeds of crime' was identified. This referred to gains from criminal activities. Later, in England, proceeds from drug trafficking could be confiscated by Courts. In 1988, the UN Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances created a centralised, global approach to tackle money laundering arising from drug trafficking. Later, in the UN Convention against Transnational Organised Crime of 2000, money laundering was specifically identified as an offence. These international conventions require participating countries to use initiatives under the conventions as guidelines for their domestic laws.

New class will cover minority stereotypes,…
New class will cover minority stereotypes, contributions
By Art Marroquin | Orange County Register
Racial stereotypes and major contributions by minorities will be explored during a new ethnic-studies class offered this fall to about 30 juniors and seniors at Loara High School.
This will be the first elective class of it's kind offered within the vast Anaheim Union High School District. How race, ethnicity, nationality and culture shapes a person's identity will be discussed.
Jose Magcalas, a U.S. history teacher and Loara alum, spent the past year developing the "Cultural Experiences in America/ Ethnic Studies" course as a way to empower students.
Loara High has 2,481 students: 75.7 percent are Latino, 9.1 percent white, 8.2 percent Asian, 2.6 percent Filipino and 2.2 percent black.
"My job as an educator is to allow students to think for themselves, and part of that is to teach another perspective of history to students of color," Magcalas said. "There's not a lot of time to discuss all the different views, but it's important to tackle as many stories as we can."
The yearlong class will cover how Native Americans were treated by European settlers, immigration and the Civil Rights movements, and race relations in Orange County and Anaheim.
That will include a discussion of the civil unrest that erupted in July 2012, when two Latino men were fatally shot by Anaheim police – a topic that Magcalas said led to developing the class.
"I was sad to see what was going on in my community in 2012," Magcalas said. "I want to teach the students how to properly take action in their community, rather than destroy it."
The class calls for writing several reports, culminating in presenting a demographic profile of an Anaheim neighborhood and completing community service with a local organization.
Superintendent Michael Matsuda, whose mother was placed in an internment camp during World War II, said that he supported the new class: "Ethnic studies is close to my heart because we should be able to tell our kids the entire American story."
The course can be taken for eligibility to get into University of California schools, said Diane Donnelly-Toscano, director of curriculum and instruction for the Anaheim Union High School District. The class could potentially be offered at other campuses in the future.
"We want the students to have a whole curriculum that goes beyond reading, writing and math," Donnelly-Toscano said. "This gives them an opportunity to give back and be an advocate for their community."

OC Fair 2019: Things to do today, July 17


I chose to study graphic design to give back to those who could benefit from this type of skill set. Having experienced first hand the overwhelming need for the visual arts and that The Good Story wants to offer this for workers overseas as soon as I learned about this dream I knew this would be something I want to be a part of.
I also love that The Good Story wants to involve a tribe of people who will be stronger together to help advance the kingdom of God through their gifts and talents.
God's gifted each member of His body in unique ways to advance the Kingdom of God. I love the quote from Francis Shaeffer 'A Christian should use arts to the glory of God, not just as tracts, mind you, but as things of beauty to the praise of God.' This is something that I see as using towards equipping missionaries. And communicating the hope of Jesus Christ to the world should be displayed in beautiful and effective ways…that's where artists are needed!


Highlights from the annual football game between Baltimore City College and Baltimore Polytechnic Institute at M&T Bank Stadium. City has 5 straight wins in the rivalry but Poly still leads the series 62-60-6. (Ulysses Muñoz / Baltimore Sun.
The City-Poly game will move to Morgan State for the 130th edition of the oldest high school football rivalry in Maryland and will be played Friday night.
For most of the past 20 years, the game had been played at M&T Bank Stadium on the first Saturday in November, but the Ravens have a home game Sunday and the grass field could not recover in one day.
Morgan State has hosted the game before. It will kick off Friday at 6 p.m. Doors open at 5 p.m.
This is the third major high school football event to move from M&T Bank Stadium since the Ravens switched from artificial turf to natural grass in 2016. The Maryland state championships and the Turkey Bowl between Calvert Hall and Loyola Blakefield also have moved to other venues.
City coach Michael Hamilton said his players were "slightly disappointed" when they found out the rivalry game would not be played at M&T Bank Stadium. He said the Knights are looking forward to their first night game of the season.
Hamilton and Poly first-year coach Marquise O'Neal both played in the City-Poly game and now coach their respective alma maters.
O'Neal is used to change in the rivalry. He was in the first game not played on Thanksgiving Day in 1993. The rivalry game moved that year to the first Saturday in November, the final day of the regular season, because Baltimore City joined the Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association and began competing in the state playoffs, which begin the second weekend in November. Morgan hosted the 1993 game.
O'Neal said the City players were also disappointed, but the prospect of playing at Morgan, which holds about 10,000 spectators as opposed to 71,000 at M&T Bank Stadium, has grown on them.
Thompson said Morgan State officials at first declined to host the game because the Bears play there Saturday. However, he said other venues were booked, so after a second request, Morgan officials agreed to a Friday night game.
Thompson said he and City AD Rolynda Contee were thankful to Morgan officials for hosting, because their only other option was to find a high school site, and none in the city is big enough for the crowd drawn to a City-Poly game. As of early this week, between 7,000 and 8,000 tickets had been sold, Thompson said. Last year, an announced 6,014 attended the game at M&T Bank Stadium.
The City-Poly game — and the Turkey Bowl — might return to M&T Bank Stadium in the future, but it depends on the Ravens' schedule. Last year, the Ravens had two byes and a road game after the City-Poly game, giving the grounds crew plenty of time to get the field ready for the next Ravens home game.
The state championships were moved to Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis because four state title games in three days were too much for the grass field to handle. The Thanksgiving Day Turkey Bowl moved last year to Towson University's Johnny Unitas Stadium and will be played there again this year, because the Ravens play at home three days later.
Poly QB/LB/DE Mervyn Thomas-Crawford leads a charge out of the tunnel to start the game. Baltimore City College took on Baltimore Polytechnic Institute on Saturday, November 4 at M&T Bank Stadium; it was the two rival schools' 129th meeting.
Jacey Lee was the first girl in the rivalry's 129-year history to take the field during the historic game. Baltimore City College took on Baltimore Polytechnic Institute on Saturday, November 4 at M&T Bank Stadium; it was the two rival schools' 129th meeting.


Any residential or commercial property that needs modernisation or refurbishment, that remains in a much less preferable location or has actually been overvalued initially, will certainly take a bigger hit than the one in an excellent catchment area, near facilities and also transportation links. Weigh up what you desire from a residential or commercial property - is the cost every little thing (even if it is an investment) or might it be better worth to go for quality?
What everyone ought to know about sellmy home Weaverville.
Fees house owners can expect to pay differ by city. In the city of Weaverville, real estate tax rates are around 1.179%. In Chula Weaverville, which sits to the south of Weaverville, the price is reduced at 1.118%. In Weaverville the price is 1.062%, not significantly higher than the standard price of 1%.
In other words, comparison-shopping is very motivated. Don't be like the HALF of home loan applicants who do not shop aroundyou might miss out on the most effective bargain for you considering that lenders use different requirements to certify their candidates.
Besides dealing with legal demands, making an offershould define rate and all various other terms of the acquisition. For instance, if the vendors said they would certainly aid with $2,000 towards your closing prices, consist of that in your composed proposaland in the last contractor you won't have grounds for gathering it later on.
Property Investors Organization The Wolfe Allies restoration procedure version assumes that the above 6 jobs stand for the entire work to be done on the property. This presumption will be verified before purchase, as a result of a comprehensive examination of the house to make certain mechanical and also architectural stability. Now and then, nevertheless, a residence will certainly be readily available that stands for a larger purchaseresale differential opportunity, but needs structural or various other major renovation expenses. These can be residences that are in horrible disrepair, all-natural calamity damages, or simply a small cattle ranch house that is surrounded by larger colonial style residences in an upscale community. These situations do not fulfill our common investment approach, however might be taken into consideration, depending on the cash required as well as the longer time that the cash will be locked up throughout the conclusion of the project.
Look for web-savvy: Online marketing is becoming extremely important. Nowadays most real estate experts have a web site; however, you should check just how web-savvy they in fact are. If they are able to fulfill the advertising and marketing needs of providing your residence or searching for you one, understanding this allows you to far better determine. All agents place your residence on the internet. As a customer you would like to know precisely just what your realty agent does to make your house standout from the other residences on the market.
In lots of scenarios a house customer makes a deal for a particular house at a specific cost where the purchase is slated to shut within a certain time period. Before a customer makes any offer to buy real estate, she ought to have a certified realty agent and a certified attorney review the offer as a secure.
A residence inspection contingency is likewise called a due diligence backup. The purpose of a residence evaluation contingency is to give the purchaser a right to have the residence evaluated within a certain time period. This aids to gives as well as shield the buyer them the option to cancel the contract or re-negotiate to have the vendor complete repair services based on the findings of the residence inspection. Including contingencies into a home sales agreement will certainly have no effect on the cost of the house inspection.
Formerly, consumers were generally ineligible for a brand-new FHA car loan up until three years after a repossession, short sale, or deed in lieu of repossession and two years after a Phase 7 bankruptcy, though the death of a partner or a clinical emergency situation can reduce the delay time to one year.
DC/Central North Carolina Property Investors' Team (DC/CMREIG) http://www.DCCMREIG.com Get in touch with: Weaverville Ragland Telephone: (202) 783-0093 ext. 221 When: Second Saturday of every month, 9:00 am Where: Floridian Hall 13701 Old Jericho Park Rd., Weaverville.
At the time you establish an escrow account, your yearly property tax as well as house owners insurance are approximated, based on your most recent bills as well as premiums. An incremental quantity of these costs is contributed to your monthly mortgage payment, in order to cover these expenses when they are due.
I have to confess that much of this comes down to education and learning. Its our task as real estate professionals to discuss the facts to vendors at the prelisting consultation. It could be a challenging discussion for some agents they don't intend to endanger a prospective listing however it really is needed. It is a waste of every people time to have a pricey listing.
When the house seller is in contract with the house purchaser and the vendor is the one who for some reason does not wish to shut escrow on the property, the purchaser could either consent to willingly cancel the agreement, or may sue the purchaser for specific performance. A details performance action takes place when the buyer records a lis pendens (Latin for litigation pending) on the desired property to allow all other interested individuals that there is litigation pending over the parcel. The customer after that sues the vendor for an order by the court that binds the seller to market the residential property to the customer at the agreed upon cost in the created agreement.
Property owners in North Carolina can claim a $7,000 exemption on their primary house. This lowers the examined worth by $7,000, saving you at the very least $70 per year. When and also its important to do so soon after you buy the due day is February 15th, you just need to declare this exception.


This was a family session turned lifestyle photography for great reason! This particular family was visiting from California and the other half lived in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The father of the two kiddos was a long time mathematician at Louisiana State University. His two kiddos and family were all together for the holiday so we scheduled a cozy Sunday afternoon for our session for a group of 11.
One of the mommy's was highly concerned of her two autistic children cooperating for a proper family portrait. As a client, she was worried this would be problematic but for me this is where I believe some of my best work lies... and the adventure begins!
Clients with a sense of adventure are right up my alley!
We began the session on an overcast afternoon at Rural Life Museum off of Essen Lane. This is an ideal location for photographing because it's smack-dab in the middle of the city off of Essen Lane and it's completely wooded and covered with sprawling gardens. I prepped the family that we would attempt some classic portraits and then let the kids just be kids.
My approach as a lifestyle photographer is always to capture the subjects as they are in real life - couple's being in love and children being themselves. So when parents seem frantic about me getting any good photographs of their seemingly disengaged child, I reassure them that this is where my skills shine.
Lifestyle or candid photography is a chance to just document subjects doing the things they love to do and I am just a fly on the wall.
With families this size there will always be a classic group shots but after these are done I just say, "y'all play together and interact" and I stand back and catch the magic that happens (even in the rain!).
So where some moms of special needs (autistic) kiddos would cringe at the thought of corralling the littles for a family photo session, I say bring them all to me!
To me, generational portraits are an absolute favorite and I just adored the rest of the family in the background that complemented this all too well.
To me making a family portrait is to be fun, stylish and simple.
Capturing a family as they engage is the most rewarding form of photography to me.
Everyone exactly as they always are. Such as life.

How can you reach 1bn AUM?
It is with great excitement that we can finally release a sneak peek of our "Making it Big" report. This collaborative report with GPP and AIMA provides insights from larger, more established managers who blazed a trail in building a billion-dollar hedge fund business. The research examines their path to growth, providing a roadmap for both emerging and start-up managers. Key features of this paper include capital raising and how best to do it, the optimal business structure for the growing hedge fund manager, as well as other critical aspects an emerging manager should consider to implement as they develop their business.
Hedge fund representation includes respondents from the emerging manager group, making up 65% of the total, and the remainder coming from managers of funds with over $500m AUM. This includes managers who run funds over $1bn AUM. Crucially, the research also reflects the opinions of hedge fund allocators, accounting for approximately $85bn.
We discovered that managers should try to identify opportunities to punch above their weight and look to get the right personnel on board at the earliest opportunity. In short, if they aspire to be a billion-dollar business, they need to act like a billion-dollar business.
To achieve the key milestones on the road to a $1bn AUM they need to be flexible and constantly keep the investor in mind. Instilling trust through transparency, investing their own money in the fund and maintaining working capital levels on the way to $1bn AUM were shown to be crucial. Implementing marketing and communications strategies that actually work were highlighted as essential.
Identify opportunities to punch above your weight.
Funds that successfully surpass the $100m AUM barrier open themselves up to a greater field of opportunities to receive capital investment, and the array of allocators who can invest in them increases. Seed funding offers an effective way of accelerating the growth of a smaller fund.
With larger funds typically possessing specialist staff such as experienced marketers, seed capital offers smaller managers the ability to make additional hires and work on further growth plans. It also provides the fund with working capital to cover overheads and the ability to be more flexible than competitors.
Established funds appear to rely heavily on face-to-face marketing and personal networks for successful fundraising. Consistent with this observation, results revealed those managing between $500m and $1bn sourced none of their latest investments from third-party marketers, preferring instead to use their own personal networks and existing client referrals. This suggests marketing specialists at smaller firms should concentrate on continually increasing their industry connections to galvanize interest in their funds.
Allocator responses also confirmed this finding, citing the effectiveness of their personal networks for sourcing investments. Of critical importance to investors was meeting a fund's key founding partners and portfolio manager, and then maintaining that access during and after the investment process.
Growing funds could benefit from producing quality marketing materials and communicating with allocators, who were shown to actually read the content they receive. Combined with this, by offering allocators transparency around their strategy, approach to risk and correlation to the market, smaller funds could mitigate the effects of a short track record. This was confirmed by 58% of respondent allocators. According to 44% of allocators, greater transparency and access to the portfolio manager for information were also shown to be ways an emerging manager can overcome a short track record.
Responses suggest it is essential that the manager invest their own money in the fund. Allocator respondents want the certainty that they are investing alongside the manager and that gains and losses are felt by both parties. Respondent managers running funds with less than $100m holds on average 7% of their funds' assets. Those with more than $1bn under management were shown to hold on average 4.6%, offering a useful benchmark for the emerging manager to keep in mind.
The possibility for a fund to break even with $86m AUM was a unique finding of last year's Alive and Kicking research and this overall average figure remains relatively static at $85m in the current results. However, new insight from funds with over $1bn AUM revealed a requirement of $180m AUM to break even, offering useful intelligence for the future $1bn manager.
The fund breakeven point exhibits significant variation when analyzed across fund strategy, AUM size, and geographic location. A global macro fund with less than $500m AUM appears to show a breakeven value over four times higher than a multi-strategy fund managing over $500m. Smaller North American funds appear to breakeven at half the AUM value of their UK counterparts.
The results offer growing managers a picture of the idiosyncrasies of their fund types and invaluable insight into the experiences of established funds, who made salient the critical importance of having enough working capital to support two to three years of sub-scale AUM.
Results revealed the importance to larger funds of possessing particular senior in-house staff, showing emerging managers what to plan for as they grow their AUM. The COO function appeared to be an inherently important internal role during the launch and growth phases, being the least outsourced by all sizes of a fund.
A discernible inflection point was observable once funds breach the $500m AUM mark when the roles of Chief Legal and Compliance officers are brought back in-house. Funds managing between $100-$500m and those managing over $1bn all hire an in-house marketing specialist. This observation is significant, as other results suggest successful fundraising and network building now rely heavily on good, face-to-face communications and awareness strategies.

"Forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." This pithy counsel by Jesus holds apt for director Chandru, Uppi & Co, who unleash Brahma - The Leader on avowed audiences this week. God forbid, lest Lord Brahma himself does not descend on Gandhinagar to express his fury on them who have taken his title to foist such a febrile film.
It's one racy, riotous, roller-coaster ride after credits trickle by, when Kannada cinema's Real Star takes centre stage and Malaysia forms the celluloid mural for Uppi dada to go beserk as Brahma. R Chandru's Brahma, unlike the divine protector, takes the avataar of the third Hindu Trinity – Maheshwara – the destroyer, swatting all and sundry as he goes on a looting spree, spiriting away a hidden cache of power and pelf-hungry politicans, gun-totting dons et al.
When our Super Star is not stealing and stashing riches at non-disclosed places, he is the epitome of a sane counsellor for the hardpressed on how to eke out a living and a messiah for the needy. Sure enough, falling hook, line and sinker for this art of humble, honest and high-thinking preacher is Kannada lassie who goes mushy and moony over this smooth talk. Even his wise words that he is not in love with her but on a mission falls on the deaf ears of the damsel. For, during a Best Couple Competition, our Brahma's poetic expression of true love to impress judges is taken true by our smitten senorita.
From Malaysia, Mission Brahma heads to namma Bengaluru and Mysooru with Bangalore Palace and Lalit Mahal palaces forming the pivotal centre of palatial pastiche where his mustachioed papa rules the roost. However, our Brahma dons a real-life name, Upendra, to worm his way into the heart of his menacing, maniacal father.
Why has Brahma become Upendra? Why has his dad turned the demon he is? Where has all the money gone Upendra as Brahma looted like there is no tomorrow? Will the sabre-rattling ACP Bhairav Singh get to book the elusive Brahma? are posers the rest of the putrid plot answers. Suffice to say, this Brahma is best left to Uppi's loyal legionnaires who have a whale of a time, cheering, showering coins and raising shindig, while others bemoan 151 minutes of bedlam they miserably bear.
Pranitha is a pretty presence, flitting eyelids and shaking a leg, swearing Brahma is her beau for life. As for comedy of Rangayana Raghu as Lucky Man, Sadhu Kokila, the less said the better.

"He reached a breaking point and he couldn't do it anymore," said Jonathan Marko.
Former employee of American House says he was denigrated racially at American House
A former employee is alleging racism while working at American House Senior Living, and claims he was cheated out of thousands of dollars.
Marko, an attorney, is speaking for his client, Jeremy Knoester who he claims faced racial discrimination for several years as director of life enrichment for American House based in Southfield.
"Imagine sitting around a table at group meetings and being called out because of your skin and being called 'buckwheat,'" Marko said. "It is an incredibly racist thing to say used to denigrate African-Americans."
Knoester also claims he was called the n-word, made fun of for his skin tone, and was told he talks "white."
On top of that, the lawsuit complaint filed in Wayne County Circuit Court says, the Grand Rapids man was never paid what he was promised for the position - $50,000 a year.
"In fact when we asked them for the contract - when they didn't pay him - they just said, 'We lost your contract,' which is absurd," Marko said.
The attorney claims many, including the company's former HR director, have come forward in support of Knoester - saying Black people are treated differently there, and not given the same opportunities.
He says his superiors - all white - never addressing the racism in the workplace. And when the Covid lockdowns began - Knoester claims all of his white co-workers were able to safely work from home. He was forced to travel to the facilities throughout the region.
Jeremy Knoester says he was demeaned at American House in Southfield.
"It was taking a toll on him," Marko said. "He was becoming depressed, he has kids, he has a family, he was coming home and wasn't able to deal with it."
Wednesday morning, American House Chief Human Resources Officer Mary Anderson issued the following statement about the lawsuit:
"It's company policy to not comment on any lawsuits or open investigations. However, we take this matter very seriously, and we have zero tolerance for workplace harassment. It's our goal at American House to create an environment where all employees feel safe and respected. "

Retail Disrupted
Traffic Driven: Tejon Outlets.
For the first time in more than two months, The Social Tap on Seaward Avenue in Ventura has a dining room full of people – half full of people, that is. The gastropub is open for dine-in service as Ventura County has rolled back non-essential business restrictions enacted in March to stem the spread of the coronavirus. In late May, the region began allowing low-risk restaurants – not buffets or food courts – to serve customers in their dining rooms and retailers with exterior-facing entrances to offer in-store shopping. Social distancing rules still apply. According to Floor Manager Steven Lovio, The Social Tap is operating at less than 50 percent capacity, both for safety's sake and to maintain compliance. "Total capacity before the shutdown was 280 people. Now full capacity is only 120," he said. Fewer tables means longer wait times, he added, but diners don't seem to mind. "That's kind of expected at most restaurants open in Ventura County," he said. The county announced the relaxed rules May 20, making it one of the first in the state to move to Phase 2 of Gov. Gavin Newsom's four-step reopening plan. Lovio said since reopening on May 22, business has been slower than usual as a result of the lowered capacity, but "we've been pretty consistent." The restaurant isn't seating parties larger than eight, but the bar is open. Throughout the county, eateries are getting creative to make the most of their space. Several restaurants in Camarillo, Thousand Oaks and Simi Valley have been granted permission from city officials to serve customers in parking lots and, in Old Town Camarillo, even on public sidewalks, according to the Ventura County Star. L.A. County is progressing more slowly than Ventura, as the number of COVID-19 cases emerging daily in the region remains the highest in the state. To reopen, counties must submit documentation to state regulators showing they've achieved several pandemic response benchmarks. For example, hospitals must be able to accommodate a potential 35 percent surge in cases and nursing facilities must have a two-week supply of personal protective equipment. L.A. County moved into Phase 2 on May 26, lifting restrictions for restaurants and other low-risk retailers on the condition they meet the county's safety protocols. Days later, officials extended the green light to hair salons and barbershops. According to the updated order of the County Health Officer, restaurants can operate dining rooms at a maximum capacity of 60 percent, but unlike Ventura County, must keep their bars closed. Low-risk retailers can open at 50 percent, and staff and patrons must continue to wear facemasks whenever possible. Gyms, bars and nightclubs, movie theaters and sports venues are still closed. Within the retail and restaurant sectors, reopening has been a scattershot endeavor. Some businesses – especially chains – were ready for in-store customers as soon as regulators allowed. Others have needed more time to rehire furloughed employees, assess capital needs and organize operational changes. Shopping malls The progression to Phase 2 is great news for indoor shopping malls, which are stirring back to life after 10 weeks of closure. Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield reopened its Los Angeles-area shopping centers beginning May 30 with Westfield Century City, then continued with Westfield Culver City, Westfield Fashion Square in Sherman Oaks, Westfield Santa Anita, Westfield Topanga and Village in Woodland Hills and Westfield Valencia Town Center on June 3. Panorama City Mall was supposed to reopen for in-store shoppers June 1, but things didn't go as planned. According to Arturo Sneider, chief executive of developer Primestor, which owns the mall, protests nearby delayed the reopening. "The Los Angeles Police Department notified us and the county's office that (attendees) are going to be looting and hitting the property. We had to kill our plans to reopen," he said. Los Angeles Police Officer Rosario Cervantes of the Media Relations Section confirmed there was a protest in Van Nuys near the courthouse. It was the first such event to take place in the Valley after a week of protests throughout the country sparked by the alleged killing of George Floyd, a black man, by a white police officer May 25 in Minneapolis. Of the Panorama City Mall reopening, Sneider said: "We had it all worked out. Surprisingly, about 70 percent of the businesses were already coordinated and ready for opening with a bunch of protocols." That included social distancing requirements, sanitization stations throughout the property and frequent electrostatic spraying of all public spaces. Sneider said reopening will depend on whether protests escalate to rioting and looting in the coming days. "We expect to see, I would imagine, 50 percent-type volume at least up until the (winter) holiday season. At least, that's what we expected prior to the protests," he told the Business Journal. Crucial in restoring the mall's bottom line to sustainable levels is its food court. "We have a very successful food business in the mall. But we are limited, of course, to no indoor seating, which in a mall, means no seating at all," Sneider said, referring to the county's ban on gatherings of more than 100 people. In the meantime, he said the mall is designing a temporary food court arrangement that would allow for social distancing indoors. "We're working with the Building and Safety Department and the Health Department to allow a reconfiguration of our food court area. We were always completely packed in the food court. Every seat was taken. We might have to spread that out in some way and work with the authorities to help us redesign that sooner than later," he said. As L.A. retailers continue to reopen, they can look to neighboring counties for an early glimpse at how the sector will perform in the post-COVID-19 economy. What to expect North of Santa Clarita in Kern County, the Outlets at Tejon Ranch have been open since May 27. Barry Zoeller, senior vice president of corporate communications for Tejon Ranch Co., said he has heard from tenants that traffic so far has been even better than they had hoped. "We opened on Wednesday (May 27), and traffic has been up every day since. We heard from our retailers that both the numbers in their stores and sales projections exceeded expectations," he explained. Zoeller reported that the people who have showed up to the outlets so far are there spending money, not just savoring the ability to go out. As of press time, around 20 of the shopping center's 50-odd stores are open. Zoeller said the weekend of July 4 will be a big one for the outlets, as will back-to-school shopping – those stretches will inform the company's expectations for the rest of the year. Tejon Ranch Co. is aware that many shoppers remain apprehensive of public spaces and the company has factored those fears into its assessment of the mall's performance. "It's not an ideal situation from a financial point of view, but it's something we can weather," Zoeller said. Sneider, of Primestor, said he thinks people are more eager than scared to go shopping again. "People are tired of being locked up in the house and being told when to go where and how to do it," he said. "Significant progress has been made in how to manage people and traffic and cleanliness and sanitation. We'll be strong in our messaging that we are going beyond the call on those fronts, and we do expect people will want to come back ASAP." As for the pandemic's long-term affect on consumer behaviors, Sneider said it will likely take "12 to 24 months to understand what the paradigm shifts are going to be."

With just a few exceptions, the deadliest states for pedestrians are all in a well-defined southern band stretching from California to Florida. What's up with that? What does California have in common with Alabama? Or New Mexico with Florida? Or Nevada with Texas? What's going on here?
Now, maybe all those northerners are walking in the gym or something. Who knows? But it sure looks like Southerners (a) don't walk much and (b) get killed a lot when they do. The mystery grows!

I read this at the same time as I discovered her music. It's very shocking, full of sexual abuse, drug addiction, violence, and racism, and opened my eyes to a lot of things I hadn't known about or understood. It made me realize where songs like Strange Fruit had come from. The rawness of those songs had their roots in a devastating history of life experience.


Tularemia, also known as Rabbit Fever, is perhaps the most serious disease associated with rabbits and human health. Squirrels and other rodents are also susceptible to tularemia. Tularemia is a bacterial disease (caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis). Tularemia can be transmitted to humans, and it is a potentially fatal disease if untreated. However, there is no reason to be overly concerned about tularemia or to stop hunting and consuming wild game. The incidence of tularemia infections reported in humans is very low, but it is important to be aware of tularemia to reduce chances of contracting this disease.
The disease is most often transmitted by blood-feeding arthropods (such as fleas and ticks), although the disease can be transmitted by most epidemiological routes. Infected, wild animals may not show any outward signs of illness, although some infected animals will appear slow (lethargic), uncoordinated, and in a state of stupor. Tularemic rabbits may easily be caught by humans or dogs (be aware that it is relatively common for healthy, young rabbits to be caught by pets). Rabbit and squirrel hunters may be at most risk of contracting tularemia simply because of frequency of direct contact with harvested game. It is a good practice to use rubber gloves to field dress game. After handling or field dressing harvested game, always wash your hands thoroughly. Hand sanitizers or disinfectants may be useful for cleansing hands while afield. Before consuming, always thoroughly cook rabbits, squirrels, and other game.
Small, white spots on the liver or spleen of infected animals is one obvious indicator of tularemia. If white spots are found on the liver or spleen while field dressing a rabbit or squirrel, seal the carcass and internal organs in a plastic bag, then seal the first bag in another plastic bag and refrigerate (do not freeze) as soon as possible. Do not store specimens in a home refrigerator. Rather, place samples on ice in a cooler. Discard disposable gloves properly and wash hands, knives, surfaces, etc. thoroughly with soap and water. Use a bleach solution (follow product directions for general cleaning or disinfecting) as a follow up to disinfect utensils, containers, etc. Contact the MDWFP Jackson Office at (601) 432-2199 (Monday - Friday, 8 am - 5 pm) or Rick Hamrick at (662) 617-1445 to arrange for collection of the specimen for laboratory analysis. Field dressing or necropsy of dead animals suspected of being infected with tularemia is not recommended. If you encounter an animal in which tularemia infection is suspected, contact the MDWFP for further assistance.
Symptoms of tularemia infection in humans include fever, infected sores at entry point, swollen lymph nodes, and flu-like symptoms that progress rapidly to severe debilitation. Anyone that exhibits illness after potential exposure to tularemia should promptly consult a physician and inform them of any incidence in which you may have been exposed to tularemia. Tularemia is rarely fatal if promptly treated with suitable antibiotics.
