Los Angeles police said Wednesday they were looking for a man whom a security camera filmed assaulting a woman just outside a Venice Beach store. The video is embedded below. The man not only slugged the woman, who is seen sitting on the sidewalk rubbing her jaw; he also throws a man who tries to detain him over his shoulder. The LAPD says they know the man's name.

I've voted for you to serve on the Santa Monica Malibu Unified School District Board every time you have run for that office because I think you are honest and sincere about wanting what's best for the students. But when you knelt during the Pledge of Allegiance at the opening of the school board meeting on September 22, I think you were out of line. Mr. Craig Foster, I don't know you very well, but I think you were off base in kneeling, too....
You may have wondered why you haven't heard much about Tiffany Trump, the only child of Donald Trump with actress Marla Maples. Well, as always, there's an internet meme that explains it.

It took me almost 30 minutes to walk up 14 stairs to the door of my home. That experience created a whole new me; I...

It is estimated that $50 billion a year is generated in cannabis sales within the United States, yet only $5.4 billion of that is legal sales. But all that's about to change. Prohibited...
Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have imaged what may be water vapor plumes erupting off the surface of Jupiter's moon Europa.

This composite image shows suspected plumes of water vapor erupting at the 7 o'clock...

If you follow what goes on in Santa Monica City Hall, it's really been pretty much the same since 1982. The City grants massive development permits to favored developers. The City Staff grant developers permits to build huge buildings that are not in the best interest of residents, because they generate traffic, noise, density, trash, without generating jobs or money for local residents. Every 4 years, residents return the same City Council members to office, because they have SMRR following...
