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.

New College Football Playoff scheduling rule will affect USC

This week, what had been in the works for a while became official: The College Football Playoff is expanding to 24 teams beginning next year. And with the change, there will reportedly be a new scheduling rule in place starting in 2027: Every Power Four team will be required to play at least ten games against Power Four opponents each year. So how will this affect USC? The Trojans currently play nine conference games per year in the Big Ten. However, that still leaves at least one nonconference game per season against a Power Four opponent. With USC's rivalry with Notre Dame not set to resume until 2030 , that means the Trojans will need to find a Power Four nonconference game for each of the next three years. One option that would seem to make a ton of sense would be scheduling series with Stanford and/or Cal. The Cardinal and Golden Bears are two of the Trojans' most storied rivals, but USC has not faced either school since the collapse of the Pac-12 following the 2023 season. In addition, there have been rumors of USC opening the 2027 season with a nonconference matchup in Las Vegas, just as the

Microsoft Goes Down, and the Media Business Takes Off Early

It’s not just you: The Runyon Canyon and Baldwin Hills trails are unusually busy. The New Jersey Transit trains to Montclair and Metro North trains to Westchester really are more crowded. Xbox Slashing 3,200 Jobs In "Most Significant Restructure" in Platform's History The media business took off early on Thursday, and the bosses can blame Microsoft. The tech giant suffered a stunning global outage Thursday, putting Outlook, Teams, CoPilot and online version of Word, Excel and other software on ice, and work grinding (mostly) to a halt. Inside one midtown Manhattan media office, one employee said that as soon as it became clear the services weren’t coming back soon, folks headed for the door, braving the rain to try and get home early. Inside one newsroom, the programming and newsgathering had to go on, but one staffer said that the conversations migrated to Slack and text chains. The media business may still rely on old-fashioned technology: Film reels, cable wires and broadcast spectrum, but the internet has become its backbone, and an outage of this scale can grind an industry (or in this case much of the economy) to a halt.

Baldi 9850 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills The Hotel Lobbies Where Hollywood Takes Meetings During AFM At the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills, chef Edo Baldi gives the steakhouse an Italian accent, cooking beef and wagyu over an olive wood-fired grill.
