    California’s Largest Kelp Farm Approved | Sacramento News

    California’s coast is about to host the nation’s largest kelp farm—three square miles off Southern California—aimed at boosting local agriculture by improving soil and plant health for avocado and strawberry farms.

    49ers Dominate Rams in Historic Aussie Game | Sacramento News

    The San Francisco 49ers crushed the Los Angeles Rams 27-7 in a historic NFL regular season game held in Melbourne, Australia, drawing over 100,000 roaring fans. Brock Purdy dazzled with over 200 yards and three TDs to Mike Evans, Demarcus Robinson, and Deebo Samuel. The Rams’ late arrival and poor adjustment to the time zone hurt them, while the 49ers embraced Aussie culture and dominated defensively. A key fourth-down stop sealed the win, and both teams now gear up for their next games: 49ers vs. Miami on Sunday, Rams vs. Giants on Monday.

    DHS Optimus Prime Post Sparks Outrage | Sacramento News

    DHS’s controversial Optimus Prime social media post targeting Sikh truck drivers sparked national outrage, with California Governor Gavin Newsom calling it “disgusting” and industry leaders condemning the racially charged rhetoric. The post, referencing a fatal crash involving an Indian driver named Harjinder Singh, wrongly blamed an entire community for systemic failures in licensing and vetting. Hasbro denied permission for the character’s use, highlighting its positive symbolism. Veteran trucker Raman Dhillon emphasized that “Singh” is a common Sikh surname and urged accountability from both state and federal agencies instead of scapegoating ethnic groups. As the federal government pushes to clean up the trucking industry—removing unqualified training providers and investigating fraud—the real issue remains: fixing broken systems, not attacking communities based on names or ethnicity.

    Sacramento Airport Parking Rates Jump | Sacramento News

    Sacramento airport travelers brace for higher parking costs starting this fall—daily rates could jump up to $7, hitting $28 from $21, even economy lots included. Officials say it’s to match inflation and market rates, with annual hikes planned after 2028. New reservation pricing adds another layer: $20–$34/day for pre-booked spots. With a new garage opening soon, critics question whether the added convenience justifies the steep price tag—especially when comparing to bigger cities. A vote this Tuesday could lock in these changes, so plan your trip budget accordingly. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

    Trump's $5K Plan Faces Big Hurdles | Sacramento News

While he’s touting it as a reward for economic success, past promises like “DOGE dividends” and tariff refunds never made it to citizens’ pockets. And even if tariffs funded it, the math doesn’t add up — it would require a decade’s worth of tariff revenue just to cover the bill.

    PG&E Power Shutoffs This Weekend | Sacramento News

    PG&E is warning Northern California residents in 11 counties to brace for possible power shutoffs this weekend as dry, low-humidity weather threatens wildfire risk from electrical equipment. The utility has activated its emergency center and is monitoring areas including Tehama, El Dorado, Plumas, and others — with outages potentially starting Saturday and lasting through Monday. While not a direct fire forecast, the shutoffs are a legal, preventative measure to avoid sparks igniting fires, and while entire counties are being alerted, only targeted zones will lose power. If you’re in one of these areas, prep your backup plan: charge devices and stay alert. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

    Negotiate With Yourself to Win | Sacramento News

    Traci Mitchell, once a TV reporter who did 68 live shots in one day and even starred on “House of Cards,” now says the biggest negotiation you’ll ever face is with yourself. After a life-altering moment with her daughter, she reinvented herself as a speaker and coach, teaching women how to handle success instead of just rejection — and how to walk into any room feeling like they belong. Her “walking in winning” framework? It’s all about mindset, preparation, and naming your inner critic (she calls hers “Stephanie”) so you can shut it down. This isn’t just about promotions or raises — it’s about mastering your internal dialogue to truly thrive. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

    Trump’s Midterm Dividend Gambit | Sacramento News

    President Trump’s bold “Trump Dividend” proposal—offering every adult American a $5,000 check if Republicans retain Congress—has ignited political firestorms. Tied directly to midterm electoral success, the plan echoes past giveaways but scales up dramatically, raising red flags over funding, debt, and legal boundaries. Vice President Vance tempers the idea with tariff financing, yet even that falls short of covering the cost. Experts warn it’s a risky gambit that could backfire, especially as GOP control looks shaky and fiscal reality looms large.

    Arsenic in Rice Risks and Solutions | Sacramento News

    Consumer Reports just dropped a bombshell: every single rice sample they tested—52 brands total—contained inorganic arsenic, a known carcinogen tied to bladder cancer and type 2 diabetes. Over 40% had levels high enough to raise health risks with daily consumption. Brown rice tends to pack more arsenic than white, but basmati and sushi varieties are lower. Some brands like Lundberg and Whole Foods already test for heavy metals and meet California’s strict standards, while others didn’t respond at all. The FDA is being pushed to set limits on arsenic in rice, since it’s such a staple food. Consumer Reports also offers practical tips: don’t rely on rice as your only grain, swap it out with quinoa or oats (which have less arsenic), and cook rice in extra water, drain it, then finish with fresh water—a method that can slash arsenic levels significantly. This investigation underscores how even everyday foods can hide hidden dangers—and why watchdogs like Consumer Reports matter.

    Hurricane Lowell’s Hidden Toll on Hawaii | Sacramento News

    Hurricane Lowell slammed Hawaii’s western islands with deadly force, triggering storm surges linked to two deaths — one on Kauai near the shore, another on Oahu under a fallen tree. Resorts and a vital food port were hit hard, while Governor Green seeks federal disaster aid. Though Lowell has weakened and moved offshore, a new storm, Norbert, has formed in the Pacific — but for now, it’s not a threat. This shows how even off-track storms can pack a lethal punch.

    Survivors Face Hard Choice After Dixie Fire | Sacramento News

Plumas County’s silence leaves survivors stranded between rebuilding dreams and the painful reality of displacement.
