“The key ingredient of all of it is the host has to be somebody that has walked the walk,” Peyton Manning said. latimes.com/sports/story/2…

In her first television interview since going to prison for paying half a million dollars in bribes to get her two daughters into the University of Southern California, Lori Loughlin opened up about how she felt after the college admissions scandal. latimes.com/entertainment-…
The former “Full House” star appeared in a TV special for an L.A.-based organization that she has been volunteering with since completing her prison sentence: “That’s what Project Angel Food is: working with people who have hit a low in their life.” latimes.com/entertainment-…

As California attempts to meet ambitious climate goals, environmental officials are embracing carbon capture and storage, saying the state cannot achieve carbon neutrality without it.

The carbon dioxide is then forced deep underground for storage.
In the 1940s, Pioneertown was built as a movie set for Westerns. In 1982, Claude “Pappy” Allen and his wife Harriet, bought Pappy & Harriet’s, which evolved into a kind of oasis for motorcycling misfits and thirsty desert musicians. lat.ms/3B8tzZA
After Pappy’s death, Harriet sold the bar to a New York couple in 2003, who kept the name, eased their way into the community and built the business into a destination featuring a restaurant and music venue. lat.ms/3B8tzZA
In the decades since, Pappy & Harriet’s has hosted musicians including Paul McCartney and Lana Del Rey. Anthony Bourdain shot part of a “No Reservations” episode there, too. lat.ms/3B8tzZA
