BERKELEY — Wearing a T-shirt that reads “First but not the last” — a phrase Kamala Harris has used to describe herself as the country’s first female vice president — a 9-year-old named Violet stood outside her elementary school, one the Democratic nominee once attended, and worried about the future if former President Trump is elected next month. “It’s scary how abortion could not be a thing anymore,” said Violet, who won’t be eligible to vote for nearly a decade. A lot has changed since Harris, 60, was a little girl growing up in Berkeley, but progressive activism remains central to…
Los Angeles Times via Getty Imag The Menendez Brothers’ 1993 trial was one of the most heavily watched cases on TV at the time. See pics of the convicted duo. Erik Menendez and brother Lyle Menendez had bright futures ahead of them before they shot and killed their parents, Jose and Kitty, inside their Beverly Hills mansion on August 20, 1989. Initially the two were not suspected, as they convincingly played grieving sons. The brothers went on to spend money wildly after their parents murders, blowing through nearly a million dollars on everything from cars and jewelry, to purchasing restaurants.…

It’s been over four decades since you could purchase a Scout-badged vehicle in the United States (1960-1981), but the brand has just returned under new management. No longer built by International Harvester, Scout Motors will now exist under Volkswagen ownership as an all-electric brand. The revived company’s first two new models, the Scout Traveler SUV and Scout Terra pickup truck have just been revealed. If you’ve been waiting for a perfect electric off-roader, these may fit the bill. We aren’t exaggerating when we say the Traveler and Terra might be “perfect.” They check every box that EV haters typically say…
In 1988, police officers in Australia came for Ian Dadour. Not because the entomologist was under arrest, but because they needed his expertise. Investigators asked Dadour to estimate the ages of maggots found on a human body to help them gauge when a homicide victim had been killed. Dadour went on to teach this and other entomology-based forensic methods to the South African Police Service. Today, officers are using these tools to investigate another type of crime: rhino poaching. South Africa is home to thousands of rhinos, including critically endangered black rhinos (Diceros bicornis) and near-threatened white rhinos (Ceratotherium simum).…
