“I’ve had a death, a quote- unquote ‘death,’ of the person that I was for 50, yep, all those years,” Christina Applegate says while reflecting on #DeadToMe.”It’s painful because… I’m living in my own death. That feeling is so f— intense.” latimes.com/entertainment-…
“You’re asked to overcome it, you’re asked to get through it, you’re asked to look at the f— bright side, you’re asked to do all these things in life,” adds Applegate. “And that goes for all of the deaths we’ve had, whether it be a loved one or an icon.” latimes.com/entertainment-…
“We’re asked to move on. And that’s the beauty of this show, is that they’re dealing with it in their own ways,” she says of #DeadToMe. “They’re dealing with their grief, their loss... in their ugly, messy, beautiful ways.” latimes.com/entertainment-… Image
“I think that’s what resonates with the audience is that we’re not going, “OK, let’s go to therapy. And now we’re cured.” It doesn’t work like that. That’s not how life works.” latimes.com/entertainment-…
“I kept going because of this girl right here,” Applegate says while pointing to Linda Cardellini.

“I told you not to keep going,” says Cardellini. “I was like, ‘I don’t care. You do whatever you need to do.’” latimes.com/entertainment-… Image
“I know you told me, but I don’t care,” says Applegate. “I didn’t want to stop being with you. I didn’t want to stop being with you.”

The table carries a specific significance for food stylists. As people who have mastered how to present and plate food — often for commercial photoshoots, editorials and events — these artists use the table in myriad ways. latimes.com/lifestyle/imag…
In their hands, each detail on the table is a meditated choice: how much wine fills the glass, the juicy face of a sliced blood orange laid on its side, a couple of grapes tumbling off a brimming platter. latimes.com/lifestyle/imag…
As L.A. chef and artist Natalia Pereira says, the table is “where stories, secrets are told, where loves are revealed, where we eat.” latimes.com/lifestyle/imag… Image

A Walmart manager opened fire on fellow employees gathered in the break room of a Virginia store, a witness said. Six people died in the country’s second high-profile mass shooting in a handful of days.

latimes.com/world-nation/s…
The gunman, who apparently killed himself, was dead when police found him, said Chesapeake Police Chief Mark G. Solesky said. There was no clear motive for the shooting, which also left four people in the hospital.

latimes.com/world-nation/s…
Employee Briana Tyler said workers had gathered in the store’s break room as they typically did ahead of their shifts.

“I looked up, and my manager just opened the door and he just opened fire,” she said.

A shooter opened fire at a Walmart in Virginia, leaving six people dead, police said, in the country’s second high-profile mass killing in a handful of days.

The assailant is also dead.

latimes.com/world-nation/s…
Officer Leo Kosinski couldn’t say how the shooter died but said that he didn’t believe police fired shots. It was not clear who the shooter was or what their motive might be.

latimes.com/world-nation/s…
The shooting had apparently stopped when police arrived at the store in Chesapeake, said Kosinski.

The shooting came three days after a person opened fire at a gay nightclub in Colorado late Saturday, killing five people and wounding 18.

Every November, Times' features writer @ARTschorn engages in an unusual ritual. "I unleash a turkey on L.A. — and the world. Not a live bird but a gravy-colored knit chullo (a.k.a. an Andean ear-flap hat)...crowned with a Pilgrim-hat-wearing turkey." latimes.com/lifestyle/stor…
It’s an "absolutely ridiculous piece of headgear" that @ARTschorn has made a point of wearing out in the wild — driving to work, running errands, that sort of thing — as often as possible until the day after Thanksgiving. latimes.com/lifestyle/stor… Image
He started wearing the turkey hat eight years ago to cheer up his father as he battled the metastatic melanoma that would claim his life not quite two weeks after Thanksgiving. latimes.com/lifestyle/stor… Image

A new law will require larger retailers in Los Angeles to inform workers of the hours they are scheduled to report at least two weeks in advance.
latimes.com/california/sto…
The law, known as the “Fair Work Week" ordinance, also requires businesses to give workers at least 10 hours’ rest between shifts or provide extra pay for that work.
latimes.com/business/la-fi…
Stuart Waldman, president of the Valley Industry and Commerce Assn., was among those who criticized the new law. He predicted its would hurt employers because they could face penalties if a worker needs an unexpected day off, for example.

The Supreme Court has denied President Trump’s plea to shield his tax returns from being turned over to a House committee.

The decision came in a one-line order with no dissents.
latimes.com/politics/story…
The court’s action has the effect of upholding a long-standing request from House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal (D-Mass.) for six years of Trump’s tax returns.
latimes.com/politics/story…
Neal acted under a law that says the Internal Revenue Service “shall furnish” the committee chairman with “any return or return information” that he requested in writing.
