Route 66 in California: Desert Towns & Mother Road Stops

Route 66 in California is the last stretch of the Mother Road, running about 345 miles from the Colorado River at Needles to the Pacific at Santa Monica, according to the National Park Service. It packs the whole Route 66 story into one state: empty desert highway, a neon-lit ghost town, a silver-mining boomtown, and a pier at the end. And 2026 is the road’s centennial year, a hundred years since U.S. Route 66 was designated on November 11, 1926.

UCLA jumps to No. 4 in this week's College Football Playoff ranking

The second College Football Playoff rankings were released Tuesday night, with the 9-0 UCLA Bruins moving up four spots to No. 4. It’s a big jump for the Bruins who are one of the big risers in this week’s ranking. UCLA passed over Miami (FL), Indiana, Texas and Kentucky this week. It’s extra surprising considering that Texas won and Indiana was on a bye but still saw the Bruins leap over them in the rankings. Job's not finished. pic.twitter.com/hMCyY1Y2t1 — UCLA Football (@UCLAFootball) November 11, 2026 The Bruins did get a nice win over Minnesota, flying across the country for an early kickoff but still getting a 34-20 win where the UCLA offense had one of their better showings. Did the big game in Week 10 for Ty Dieffenbach increase some belief in UCLA? Something led to the big rise for the Bruins. Perhaps UCLA was ranked too low in the initial CFP ranking but the committee got that corrected right away. Notre Dame moved up six spots to No. 5 after their big win, Tennessee jumped five spots to No. 8 with Oregon being the biggest climber, moving up seven spots to No. 16 in the ranking. November 🔟

Third Extension Buys More Time for Labor Negotiations at LA-Long Beach Ports

Labor negotiations for security workers at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach have been extended for the third time, again pushing back the possibility of a strike at the twin gateways. LA-Long Beach Watchmen Strike Delayed Again as Talks Run to Friday The Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) and the Local 26 branch of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) have agreed to extend their contract through Nov. 20, with additional talks scheduled during that period. The negotiation deadline for a new contract was initially pushed back from Nov. 1 to Nov. 4, before being delayed a second time to Nov. 6. While the union representing the security guards has not commented publicly on the negotiations, the PMA said it “remains committed to reaching a fair agreement at the bargaining table that avoids disruption at the nation’s two busiest ports.” The roughly 250 port watchmen have been working under a contract extension since the deal between the local union and the PMA expired last July. Despite the parties meeting regularly for talks, according to the association, there has been no progress on a deal. The guards operate under a separate contract from the rest of the ILWU dockworkers

Gardena, Datsun and the Japanese Cars Still Passing Through Los Angeles

Normally, we look back at car history when a model turns 25 or 30 years old. Twenty years are usually no such reason. However, in 2006, exactly 20 years ago, Nissan moved its American headquarters out of Gardena in the South Bay of Los Angeles, where the company had been based since 1960. For several decades, this part of Southern California was the American home of the biggest Japanese carmakers. So we like to take this anniversary as an occasion for a little look back at how the South Bay became their front door to America.
