After game-sealing interception vs. Packers, Broncos safety P.J. Locke’s time is now

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 13:02:22 GMT

P.J. Locke waited and waited.Finally, his chance arrived in the fourth quarter Sunday against Green Bay.He didn’t miss it.Locke, the fourth-year safety, played 15 snaps in relief of safety Kareem Jackson, who was ejected for a hit on Packers tight end Luke Musgrave, down the stretch of the Broncos’ 19-17 win.He didn’t just fill in, either. He made a game-sealing interception of Packers quarterback Jordan Love on a deep throw for receiver Samori Toure with 1 minute, 40 seconds remaining.“He threw it and I didn’t hesitate,” Locke said. “I saw the ball in the air and I was like, ‘It’s mine.’”Simmons ended up one-on-one with Toure, but had to turn and run in a trail position. Locke had responsibility on the opposite half of the field and covered a lot of ground to make the play.“I normally don’t do this, but they were in the perfect offensive play call for what we were running,” Simmons said. “For anyone that goes back and watches the film, that is a one-of-one-type of play that P.J. ma...

Colorado looks to re-establish passenger rail line into the mountains

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 13:02:22 GMT

The Colorado Department of Transportation will begin exploring the possibility of re-establishing passenger rail from Denver to Craig utilizing funds from a federal transportation package, the agency announced Monday.The $5 million study will provide data and suggest service options for this corridor, CDOT said in a news release.The 191-mile rail line would operate along the existing Union Pacific route and would pass through the towns of Steamboat Springs and Hayden, among others. Union Pacific lines already serve Winter Park ski trains from January through March and Amtrak’s California Zephyr, but implementation of a line from Denver to Craig would mark the first time since 1968 that the route would include passenger rail.“We’ve always looked at that corridor as one that would be a potential for passenger rail,” said Timothy Hoover, CDOT communications manager for Front Range passenger rail and innovative mobility. “But it’s only been in the las...

Model's death in DTLA was accidental, not murder, medical examiner says

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 13:02:22 GMT

The County of Los Angeles Medical Examiner has released the results of the autopsy of model Nichole Coats, and it appears to back up claims made by police that her death was unrelated to that of another model.Coats, 32, was found dead on Sept. 10 in her South Grand Avenue apartment, two days before 31-year-old model Maleesa Mooney was found in her South Figueroa Street apartment. Deaths of 2 models not related, LAPD says Mooney's death was deemed a possible homicide by the LAPD, but despite reports that Coats, who went by Nikki, was found amid a bloody scene at her home, authorities have determined her death was the result of an accidental overdose of cocaine and alcohol.About a week after the two deaths, police publicly stated that the incidents were not related, despite the women's similarities in profession and location.No arrest has been made in the killing of Mooney, who was two months pregnant at the time of her death.

Santa Barbara woman recorded harassing street vendor, again

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 13:02:22 GMT

Last month, a Santa Barbara woman went viral after a video showed her making racist statements towards a Latino construction worker. Now, more video has surfaced of the same woman going on a second racist rant to another Latino man. The footage from the first video – taken on Sept. 16 – sparked a local protest, the Los Angeles Times said, with hundreds of people flooding the streets of Santa Barbara in protest of what they deemed to be a “racist encounter.” In that incident, the woman – identified by the Times as Jeanne Umana – enters a home down the street from hers despite the construction worker who was recording telling her that it was a private construction site. “I live here. I’m American, you’re a Tijuanan,” Umana, 74, can be heard saying. “Thank you for being racist,” said the construction worker, identified by the Times as Luis Cervantes. Umana “apologized repeatedly” in an interview with the publication last month, saying that the ordeal began...

A Private Sensory Retreat With Chef Matthew Kenney and Rainbeau Mars

Published Fri, 27 Dec 2024 13:02:22 GMT

Wellness author and herbalist to the stars Rainbeau Mars opened her Feng Shui Venice home on Monday for an evening of wellness and a plant-based five-course menu from internationally acclaimed vegan chef and Mar Vista resident Matthew Kenney. And it all kicked off with dessert — frozen strawberry guava with the essence of coconut and kaffir lime.“A few small bites of dessert before you start the meal aids in digestion and absorption of vitamins and nutrients,” Mars told the intimate group after a cleansing sound bath that included Chinese medicine expert Dr. Mao Shing Ni, as well as actress and realtor Leslie Bega. “A little sweetness to start out will help digest the proteins before they start to ferment and cause digestive issues. Matthew has taken the herbs and plants gathered from my urban garden and transformed them into art for the body and mind. By combining the earth, the water, the fire and the air, we can reclaim the micronutrients from the colors out of the garden.”Matthe...
