Last week, Jeff German, an investigative reporter at the Las Vegas @reviewjournal, was stabbed to death outside his home. An elected official who was the subject of stories written by German was arrested last night in connection with the killing. reviewjournal.com/crime/homicide… Image
As Review Journal employees continue to cover this story, and as they grieve their colleague's death, we encourage you to read German’s coverage and support the @reviewjournal.
Read their coverage of the killing, which has shocked the American news media.

German was working on a new story about Clark County Public Administrator Robert Telles the week he was killed. German had previously investigated Telles’ office after “allegations of emotional stress, bullying and favoritism” surfaced from employees.

It’s also hard to imagine what California will look like next year or the year after — let alone in 2030, or at midcentury.

Already, people are struggling to survive the heat as they go about their daily lives.

Already, firefighters are collapsing on the job because it’s so damn hot. Already, Lake Mead and Lake Powell are on the edge of “dead pool” as a long-term drying trend shrinks the snowpack that feeds the Colorado River and its tributaries. latimes.com/california/sto…
And already, California is having trouble keeping the lights on as rising temperatures drive up air conditioning use. That’s what happened Tuesday, when the state narrowly avoided power shortages after setting a new record for electricity demand.

It was just before 9 a.m. and already nearing 100 degrees as @Sammy_Roth stared out at the menacing steel pillars of the U.S.-Mexico border wall, in California’s far southeastern corner.

Read his dispatch from California’s hottest county:
latimes.com/environment/ne…
The record-smashing heat that would threaten rolling blackouts across much of California was still days away.

But triple-digit temperatures are par for the course in the Sonoran Desert enclave of Imperial County, population 180,000.

latimes.com/california/sto…
So far this year, Imperial’s average high temperature is more than 6 degrees warmer than any other California county, federal data show.

Over the last five years, it’s gotten less than half as much rain than the next-driest county, on average.

As has been said many times over, we look to the royal family for the kind of jewel-encrusted, gilded-coach-chauffeured institutional ritual that this country, by choice and definition, does not have, @marymacTV writes. latimes.com/entertainment-…
For Americans, who experienced Queen Elizabeth II at a physical and emotional distance, she was an almost mythological figure, the most enduring main character in the world’s longest-running soap opera.
latimes.com/entertainment-…
Over the years, that character has been cast in many lights: fairy tale princess, colonial despot, self-sacrificing monarch, money-sucking figurehead, under-appreciated working woman, unfeeling mother-in-law.
