A Back Look at Coachella Party Fashion: Festival season is warming up, especially after Coachella weekends one and two. Flipping through the plethora of party pics and step and repeat poses that came through our email inbox, one thing is very clear: skin is still in!As a reporter who covered the festival (and the Coachella party scene) for several years, we always seem to find common threads in terms of different fashion eras at Coachella, and at the biggest off-site bashes.From American Apparel jogger getups to Indian headdresses (now considered problematic), feathers and fringe to the ubiquitous floral head garlands and boho dresses to full-on beachwear (swimsuits and speedos), trends may vary over the years, but certain things never change.Attendees want to look sexy, colorful and fun. Comfort is important too, though the people come out for the party scene alone can get away with looks festival-goers cannot, like high heels and non-breathable fabrics.So what’s everybody we...Past firings carry lessons for Fox after Carlson

By David Bauder | Associated PressNEW YORK — Before ousting Tucker Carlson, Fox News had twice fired wildly popular hosts – and both times the network recovered better than the stars it cut loose.Fox’s dismissals of Glenn Beck in 2011 and Bill O’Reilly in 2017 offer lessons in what the post-Carlson fallout might be. Carlson was let go on Monday, less than a week after Fox agreed to pay Dominion Voting Systems $787 million for airing bogus claims of voter fraud following the 2020 election.Fox’s two most popular programs last year — Carlson’s being one of them — were the replacements for Beck and O’Reilly.“It seems like the parts are interchangeable,” said SiriusXM and CNN personality Michael Smerconish. “They’ve built a machine over there that seems to function even when the pistons are replaced.”Still, Carlson’s ability to connect with supporters of former President Donald Trump could benefit him wherever he lands.Bec...Teen who inspired JW House would appreciate families’ connection

The guests at Wednesday’s Celebration of Hope breakfast in Campbell — a fundraiser for JW House – are about to be treated to an amazing story about the surprising connection between two families. It’s a tale that would have been appreciated by the teenager who dreamed of creating JW House as a home away from home for families whose kids were undergoing medical treatment.For Racy Ming Copley, the story started last year when her 12-year-old daughter, Sophia Copley, discovered a lump on her side that was diagnosed in December as Ewing sarcoma — a cancerous tumor that grows on the soft tissue around bones. In Sophia’s case, the tumor was on one of her ribs, and doctors wanted her to begin chemotherapy right away, scuttling plans for an end-of-year family vacation to celebrate the 50th birthday of her dad, Myles Copley. “Instead of going to Hawaii, we went to chemo,” Racy Copley said.Sophia is on a compressed chemotherapy schedule, meaning...Ginnie Newhart dies; inspired classic ending to husband Bob’s sitcom ‘Newhart’

By Michael Kunzelman | Associated PressWASHINGTON — The seditious conspiracy case against former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and four lieutenants went to the jury on Tuesday after dozens of witnesses over more than three months in one of the most serious cases to emerge from the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.The jury will begin deliberating Wednesday to decide whether onetime Proud Boys national chairman and four co-defendants are guilty of seditious conspiracy for what prosecutors allege was a desperate plot to keep President Donald Trump in the White House after the Republican lost the 2020 election.Prosecutors in Washington have shown jurors hundreds of messages exchanged by Proud Boys in the days leading up to Jan. 6 that show the far-right extremist group peddling Trump’s false claims of a stolen election and trading fears over what would happen when President Joe Biden took office.Defense attorneys say there was no conspiracy and no plan to attack the Cap...Tucker Carlson’s misogyny and use of vulgar word were a ‘key factor’ in his firing, reports say

It may not have been Tucker Carlson’s racist statements or his dissemination of election denialism that sealed his fate and led to his surprise firing from Fox News Monday.The “leading theory” for why Rupert Murdoch and other Fox executives finally decided it was time to part ways with the provocative face of their network was his misogynistic behavior, according to reports from New York magazine and the Daily Beast. While Fox News settled the defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems for a record $787.5 million last week, the network is still mired in a suit brought by former producer Abby Grossberg, who alleges Carlson encouraged a toxic, sexist work environment.Both the Dominion lawsuit and Grossberg’s allegations “showcased Carlson and his staff’s penchant for misogyny — a tendency that reportedly didn’t go over well with top executives,” New York Magazine said.Fox News has offered no explanation for why it fired its top-rate...Single family residence in Saratoga sells for $3.9 million
