LEMOORE, Calif. (KFSN) — A tasty jackpot is ready to pay off at Coyote Grille inside Tachi Palace inLemoore. “Just a diverse menu, a little bit of everything,” says Executive Chef CesarVenegas. “Our steakhouse is for whatever appetite you have, we have an entree for.” We started big, with a 35-ounce steak. It’s served with asparagus, locally-grown shishito peppers and red jalapenos. The massive steak is served with a homemade whiskey bourbon sauce with hints of soy sauce and roasted garlic. Speaking of whiskey, connoisseurs have been impressed with the large selection. They include “The Last Drop,” which goes for $1,000 a glass. “The response has been incredible,” says Director of Food and Beverage, Jay Yates. “Ever sinceCOVID, there’s been a bourbon boom, especially for luxury bourbon.” You can also enjoy one of my favorites- a hard-to-find lobster roll. “Now that you mentioned it, I haven’t seen a lobster roll around these areas,” Venegas said. You can dip into the chipotle dipping sauce with a slight kick or butter. “Surf and Turf” features a one-pound Australian lobster with an 8-ounce filet mignon. Once you cut

Fresno State honors Cesar Chavez in annual celebration

Friday, March 28, 2025 1:57AM Fresno State students and faculty gathered at the peace garden on campus Thursday to honor the late civil rights and labor movement activist Cesar Chavez. FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — Fresno State students and faculty gathered at the peace garden on campus Thursday to honor the late civil rights and labor movement activist Cesar Chavez. “Cesar Chavez is our role model and example; he did a lot of great things for the community, he was a visionary, he taught us the way to advocate for our community in many ways,” said keynote speaker Raul Moreno. Fresno State’s College Assistance Migrant Program, also known as “CAMP,” and the Cross Cultural and Gender Center hosted the annual commemoration to celebrate the legacy of the Mexican American farm labor leader and civil rights activist. For Academic Advisor Jose Mundo, he says it goes beyond Chavez, it’s about making sure everyone feels welcomed. “I feel like I’m honoring our students, their families, their parents who work in the fields, who work in packing houses, fisheries, dairies, who do all the labor in the agricultural industry,”

Man arrested for domestic violence murder in Fresno, pleads not guilty

Friday, March 28, 2025 1:56AM Domestic violence has now claimed another life in Fresno. FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — Domestic violence has now claimed another life in Fresno. “It was very apparent that she was suffering multiple injuries, visible injuries,” Fresno Police Department Lt. Paul Cervantes said of Christina Meza on Thursday. She was 32. Police arrested Timothy Goodloe. They say he abused and killed Meza last Saturday morning. EMS first responded to a call of medical distress. The case quickly became a death investigation. “When officers arrived there, it became very apparent that she was a victim and suffered numerous injuries,” Cervantes said. Investigators revealed Goodloe, now the suspect, was the 911 caller. “It appears that she was in some medical distress, and he felt it necessary to call on her behalf,” Cervantes said. Goodloe and Meza were in a relationship, and police were actively investigating Goodloe for a previous case of domestic violence on March 10, 12 days before Meza died. He had an active arrest warrant. “Attempts were made to arrest him for that violation, and unfortunately and tragically, that never happened,” Cervantes

Valley leaders ensure safety for immigrants amid ongoing deportations

Faith leaders are working to build trust among migrant communities as deportations continue to be carried out. Friday, March 28, 2025 1:27AM Valley faith leaders and local law enforcement met on Thursday with a common goal of building trust among the migrant communities. FRESNO, Calif. — Valley faith leaders and local law enforcement met on Thursday with a common goal of building trust among the migrant communities. Members from the Fresno Police Department, the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office, and the Mexican Consulate in Fresno also joined in the discussion. “Right now we have seen an increase of fear from around the community, but what we’re trying to do is to encourage them to not let the fear paralyze them, but instead take actions,” said Valeria Solorio, Mexican Consulate of Fresno. Those actions include attending monthly immigration workshops and carrying red cards that detail immigrants’ rights. The discussion turned toward ICE after Father Jose Sanchez shared an experience from one of his congregants that happened two weeks ago at the Madera Courthouse. “She shared with me that her husband had been arrested because he was driving

SF Giants score four runs in ninth-inning rally to win on Opening Day

CINCINNATI — Jerar Encarnacion’s late injury aside, the Giants had an objectively great spring. They went 21-6. They were third in ERA and OPS. They excelled in every facet of the game. Down to their last out on Thursday afternoon, they took the right swings in the right moments to win their first real game of the season, too. The Giants opened their first season under president of baseball operations Buster Posey with a 6-4 win over the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park, scoring four runs in the ninth on Patrick Bailey’s game-tying single and Wilmer Flores’ three-run, go-ahead homer. The Giants entered the ninth inning trailing, 3-2, but put runners at the corners with one out as Jung Hoo Lee drew a walk and Matt Chapman singled to right field. Ramos struck out and brought San Francisco down to its last out, but Bailey shot a single into right field past the diving Matt McClain to tie the game up at three apiece. That set the stage for Flores, who sent the crowd into a cacophony of boos with a go-ahead, three-run homer to

Man accused of setting fire to Tesla vehicles in Las Vegas arrested, police say

By RIO YAMAT, Associated Press LAS VEGAS (AP) — A man who set fire to Tesla vehicles in Las Vegas and who painted the word “resist” for authorities to find at the scene has been arrested, police announced Thursday. Paul Hyon Kim, 36, faces charges in connection with the March 18 attack in both state and federal court. He was taken into the custody of the federal government Thursday. In state court, Kim is facing charges of arson, possession of an explosive device and firing a weapon into a vehicle, Clark County Sheriff Kevin McMahill said at a news conference. Kim is also charged with federal unlawful possession of an unregistered firearm and arson, according to a criminal complaint. He is scheduled to appear in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas later Thursday. An attorney for Kim who could comment on his behalf was not listed Thursday in court records. Security video played at the news conference showed the suspect, dressed all in black and covering his face, paint the word “resist” across the glass doors of a Tesla service center early on March 18.

The woman who killed Tejano music icon Selena in 1995 has been denied parole

HOUSTON, Texas — The woman convicted of killing Tejano music legend Selena Quintanilla-Pérez has been denied parole and will continue serving a life sentence for fatally shooting the rising young singer at a Texas motel in 1995, the state’s parole board announced Thursday. Yolanda Saldívar, 64, was up for parole for the first time since the killing of the singer, known to fans as simply Selena. One of the first Mexican American artists to break into the mainstream music scene, Selena shattered barriers for women in Latin music. She was 23 years old and on the verge of crossing over into English-language pop superstardom when she was killed. The singer’s family and Chris Pérez, her widower, expressed gratitude to the Texas Board of Pardon and Paroles. “While nothing can bring Selena back, this decision reaffirms that justice continues to stand for the beautiful life that was taken from us and from millions of fans around the world far too soon,” they said in a statement posted on social media. In explaining the decision to deny parole, the board said in a statement that the panel

Kurtenbach: There’s only one way to measure SF Giants success in 2025

Only one thing will make the San Francisco Giants’ 2025 season a success. And it’s not a certain number of wins, a push of the Dodgers in the National League West, or even a playoff berth. Of course, a winning season and the team’s first trip to the playoffs since 2021 would be nice, but this Giants’ season will be appropriately judged strictly by the conversation around the team. If in two, four, and six months we’re talking about the Giants on the field—and not the former player at the helm of the front office or the future players in the farm system—you can consider this season a victory. Perhaps Thursday’s season opener in Cincinnati is a step in the right direction towards that. It was undoubtedly a buzzy start. Down 3-2 with two outs in the top of the ninth inning, the Giants rallied to win behind a game-tying RBI single from Patrick Bailey and a go-ahead three-run home run from Wilmer Flores. The Giants, who won 6-4, might not enter this season expecting to be world-beaters like their blue-clad archrivals, but being clutch

Relax, rejuvenate and recharge at Dream Inn’s Wellness Weekends

By Janel Andronico Thursday, March 27, 2025 8:49PM Recharge at Santa Cruz’s Dream Inn’s Wellness Weekends where guests can experience personal growth and renewal. SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — Santa Cruz’s Dream Inn is inviting guests to unwind and recharge with its Wellness Weekends. “We’re always running around taking care of other people, our families, our careers, and we really neglect ourselves. So one of the things that we want to do with this program, and just something that we’re seeing overall in hospitality and travel, are folks who are really wanting to take a pause and attend to themselves,” said Shelby Getsla, Marketing Manager for Dream Inn. Wellness Weekends are a perfect opportunity to do just that. Dream Inn hosts several weekends throughout the year that are designed to help guests reconnect with themselves through guided meditation, wellness workshops, and nature-inspired activities. “Most of us live in that place of autopilot. So most people live their lives only half paying attention. So what happens when we’re mindful? What happens when we actually pay attention and we start noticing the synchronicities, the magic? I think this

Lawmakers demand to know ‘government purpose’ of CA insurance boss’s taxpayer-funded travel

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) — California lawmakers and the state’s former insurance commissioner are responding to a 7 On Your Side investigation into California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara’s taxpayer-funded travel across the world. Specifically, the lack of transparency about these trips, which are public record. The Vice Chair of the Assembly Insurance Committee, Assm. Greg Wallis, (R-Riverside) vowed to take legislative action to demand more transparency from the state, if the business purpose of the ‘mission critical’ trips aren’t provided. “If the insurance commissioner’s office isn’t able to provide answers as to the government purpose of this travel, I think it’s absolutely appropriate for us to move forward requesting an audit so we can get answers for the taxpayers. Again this is about transparency — it’s about good government. It’s something that Californians absolutely deserve,” Assm. Wallis said. 7 On Your Side reported earlier this week that Commissioner Lara made at least 46 trips across the country and all over the world since 2019, from the U.K. to Singapore to Glasgow, and Dubai. Receipts show at least 11 fully taxpayer funded ‘work-related’ excursions to places like

Posey talks SF Giants’ hot spring, roster before first Opening Day as team president

CINCINNATI — Buster Posey seldom took in the sights and sounds of the 10 Opening Days he experienced during his playing days. There was, after all, a game to win. For his first Opening Day as the Giants’ president of baseball operations, Posey plans to fully enjoy the pomp and circumstance of the afternoon. “I was telling (Bob Melvin) just a minute ago that I’ll probably go up in the booth pretty early and just take in the pageantry of Opening Day,” Posey said Thursday before the Giants’ opener in Cincinnati. “I never did that as a player because I was hyperfocused on the game. I’m excited to do that.” The Giants enter their first regular season under Posey and general manager Zack Minasian’s leadership after being baseball’s best team during spring training. San Francisco finished the preseason with a 21-6 record and +57 run differential, both of which were the best in baseball. Posey’s group excelled in just about every area of the game. The Giants finished third in both ERA (3.58) and OPS (.839). Logan Webb, the Opening Day starter for a fourth

Here’s the SF Giants’ Opening Day lineup vs. Reds in Cincinnati

CINCINNATI — While the Giants’ Opening Day roster features a fair amount of surprises, manager Bob Melvin’s first lineup of the season looks exactly as expected. Here’s what Melvin is rolling out for the first game of the season: LaMonte Wade – 1BWilly Adames – SSJung Hoo Lee – CFMatt Chapman – 3BHeliot Ramos – LFPatrick Bailey – CWilmer Flores – DHMike Yastrzemski – RFTyler Fitzgerald – 2BLogan Webb – SP Ramos, of course, represents the Giants’ 19th different Opening Day left fielder over the last 19 seasons, a streak that began with Barry Bonds in 2007. It’s impossible to predict the future, but Ramos, a first-time All-Star last season, likely has the best chance of breaking that streak next season. Lee’s status was uncertain a week ago as he dealt with a minor back injury after missing the final week of Cactus League play, but he played in the Giants’ final three exhibitions prior to traveling to Cincinnati and is good to go for the opener. While Lee is healthy, Wade will be the one to take the Giants’ first plate appearance of the

US economic growth to slow in the next 30 years, fueled by debt and declining birth rates, CBO says

By FATIMA HUSSEIN and JOSH BOAK, Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Weak population gains and increased government spending will result in slower overall economic growth over the next 30 years, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said Thursday. The CBO’s latest long-term budget and economic outlook report — for a timeframe that spans 2025 to 2055 — projects publicly held debt to reach 156% of gross domestic product, or GDP, in 2055. That’s down from the agency’s March 2024 long-term budget projection, which said publicly held debt would be equal to a record 166% of American economic activity by 2054. However, that’s not necessarily a positive. The mix of slower population growth and unfettered spending will also result in weaker economic growth over the next three decades than what the CBO projected last year. Lower birthrates also mean that the United States is becoming more dependent on immigrants working to sustain growth. “Without immigration, the U.S. population would begin to shrink in 2033,” the CBO report states. The report assumes that all the laws set to expire, including certain provisions of Trump’s 2017 tax cuts, will
