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.

La Crescenta residents cite fire evacuation concerns in battle against affordable housing project

Concerned residents and La Crescenta city leaders are urging Los Angeles County to take another look at a proposed five-story affordable housing site. They say Briggs Avenue and Foothill Boulevard offer only one way out, and with the proposed development, there would be a dangerous evacuation bottleneck and no safe way to escape danger. The neighborhood is in an area designated as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone by the state fire marshal. The proposed five-story apartment complex would replace an 80-year-old motel at the corner of Briggs Avenue and Foothill Boulevard. The development would include 66 units and potentially house hundreds of residents. Tatyana Esmaelian, a La Crescenta resident, said the location could create serious problems during a wildfire evacuation. “I see this as a disaster happening, where it’s a repeat of Palisades Fire meets Eaton Fire, where people will get gridlocked to come out,” Esmaelian said. Residents say the intersection is already a potential evacuation choke point. Above the proposed development are already hundreds of homes, with Briggs Avenue serving as a primary evacuation route. Chris Kilpatrick of the Crescenta Valley Town Council called the proposed location particularly problematic. “This is probably the worst place in the

The dine-in theaters will reopen in December — just in time for “Dune: Part Three” and “Avengers: Doomsday” — with luxury reclining pod seating, immersive picture and sound and chef-inspired food and craft beverages delivered directly to guests’ seats. Movie Theater Chain iPic Files for Bankruptcy The iPic multiplex closed in June amid the company’s bankruptcy proceedings.
