A year and a half ago, the African American Sports and Entertainment Group’s dreams of redeveloping the Oakland Coliseum seemed like the stuff of fantasy beyond some early negotiations with the city to eventually acquire its half of the enormous property. Now the group, called AASEG, is on the cusp of owning the entire 112-acre site, which it intends to transform into housing, restaurants, bars and hotels — a new megaplex. But reality is often messy, and this sale is no exception. AASEG now finds itself in the crosshairs of a wildly toxic election season in Oakland, with onlookers worried if a newly restructured deal can deliver the revenue that Mayor Sheng Thao has promised would help fix a perilous local budget crisis. Jobs are at stake, and so are crucial city services. Where does the Coliseum sale stand? Here’s a breakdown: Why was the deal restructured? On Monday, city officials made public what this news organization first reported last week: Thao’s office and AASEG have agreed to a revised purchase agreement worth $20 million more than the original price, but with most of the
SANTA CLARA — Life was simpler for the 49ers when Brock Purdy became the starting quarterback in 2022. Fixated on proving he could prove to his teammates he could compete in the NFL, he concentrated on carrying out coach Kyle Shanahan’s complex game plans with precision. Purdy quickly processed his options, with the ball leaving his hands shortly after the snap from center Jake Brendel and into the hands of playmakers Christian McCaffrey, Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle and Jauan Jennings. Then he sat back and watched as the 49ers laid waste to the opposition. He was Jimmy Garoppolo with enough mobility to open up the Shanahan playbook. Bootlegs and rollouts that weren’t part of the plan with Garoppolo were in vogue, and Shanahan was instantly a better play-caller the moment he took over. As Purdy has absorbed the offense in all its detail and become more comfortable in his skill level as an NFL quarterback after 32 starts (including the playoffs) and 23 wins, defenses have adjusted. Purdy’s legs will never have equal billing with his arm — he’s not Lamar Jackson — but he’s

LAS VEGAS — Sin City blew a kiss goodbye to the Tropicana before first light Wednesday in an elaborate implosion that reduced to rubble the last true mob building on the Las Vegas Strip. The Tropicana’s hotel towers tumbled in a celebration that included a fireworks display. It was the first implosion in nearly a decade for a city that loves fresh starts and that has made casino implosions as much a part of its identity as gambling itself. “What Las Vegas has done, in classic Las Vegas style, they’ve turned many of these implosions into spectacles,” said Geoff Schumacher, historian and vice president of exhibits and programs at the Mob Museum. Former casino mogul Steve Wynn changed the way Las Vegas blows up casinos in 1993 with the implosion of the Dunes to make room for the Bellagio. Wynn thought not only to televise the event but created a fantastical story for the implosion that made it look like pirate ships at his other casino across the street were firing at the Dunes. From then on, Schumacher said, there was a sense in Las
ZooTampa will have a ride-out team at the facility during the storm. By Leah Sarnoff, Ginger Zee, and Daniel Manzo Wednesday, October 9, 2024 10:45AM How Tampa’s zoo and aquarium are preparing for Hurricane Milton As Florida’s Tampa Bay residents prepare for the impact of Hurricane Milton, the city’s zoo and aquarium are working on emergency preparations for the animals as well. In a statement Tuesday, a spokesperson for ZooTampa said the facility has a “comprehensive hurricane preparedness plan to ensure the safety and well-being of its animals and team members.” Security precautions leading up to Milton’s landfall include moving larger animals into night houses, that are built to withstand major storms, and moving the smaller mammals and birds into ancillary buildings, according to ZooTampa. Other hurricane preparations include securing loose items at the facility, stocking up on animal diets, trimming trees and fueling generators for power outages.

Severe weather can target any part of the globe, but each year the Atlantic hurricane season brings heavy rain, strong wind, storm surge and sometimes catastrophic devastation to locations from the Caribbean islands and Central America all the way up through the United States and into Canada. Forecasters at the Miami-based National Hurricane Center monitor the storms from the time they develop until they dissipate. This year, the 2024 season was expected to be extremely active, and it supplied the earliest Category 5 Atlantic hurricane on record. But how do these hurricanes form, and what do the categories mean? A look at the facts: What causes a hurricane? Hurricanes often start as tropical waves that combine with warm ocean waters, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. They may also be fueled by thunderstorms. The weather system moves west as warm ocean air rises into it, and that creates a low pressure area underneath it, NOAA said. Air rises and cools, and that forms clouds and thunderstorms. Hurricanes have maximum sustained winds – the highest one-minute average wind speed at a particular point in
Hurricane Milton is already causing travel disruptions as the storm takes aim at Florida’s west coast. The hurricane is expected to make landfall as a Category 3 hurricane Wednesday night or early Thursday morning. Possible record storm surge is anticipated in the Tampa area. Flooding is also a risk throughout much of the state. Evacuation orders have been issued in counties along Florida’s west coast, including in Charlotte, Citrus, Collier, Hernando, Hillsborough, Lee, Levy, Manatee, Pasco, Pinellas and Volusia.

Airport closures Tampa International Airport will suspend operations beginning at 9 a.m. on Tuesday and remain closed to the public “until it can assess any damage after the storm,” airport officials said.

By MAYA SWEEDLER WASHINGTON (AP) — In the 2020 presidential election, Florida reported the results within a few hours of poll close of more than 99% of ballots cast. In California, almost one-third of ballots were uncounted after election night. The state was making almost daily updates to its count through Dec. 3, a full month after Election Day. This wasn’t unusual or unexpected. California, the nation’s most populous state, is consistently among the slowest to report all its election results. Florida, the third-most populous state, is generally among the first to finish. The Constitution sets out broad principles for electing a national government and leaves the details to the states. The choices made by state lawmakers and election officials as they sort out those details affect everything from how voters cast a ballot, how quickly the tabulation and release of results takes place, how elections are kept secure and how officials maintain voters’ confidence in the process. The gap between when California and Florida are able to finalize their count is the natural result of election officials in the two states choosing to emphasize

Over on Tabulation View 2, a man in a black T-shirt and shorts is seen shuffling papers near a waist-high machine. The livestream scenes from Maricopa County, Arizona, of the 2024 election process may not be the most riveting video. But the feeds, already online, and other live videos like it streaming from election sites across the country have a serious aim. They are an effort by election officials to demystify voting and provide greater transparency to a process that in recent years has been subject to intense scrutiny, misinformation and false claims of widespread fraud. The increase in livestreaming the election process, an operation conducted by local governments nationwide, reflects a broader rise in video streams online, according to Wendy Underhill, election and redistricting director at the National Conference of State Legislatures. There is a concern, however, among officials that people unfamiliar with what’s happening in a livestream could misunderstand what they’re watching and reach misleading conclusions. Here is a closer look at who is streaming elections and what you might

RED BLUFF — Tehama Administrative Analyst Tom Provine provided an update on the Corning Veterans Hall remodel, which is quickly progressing. The architects behind the project are putting the bid documents together, and the hope is that by November, county staff will present them to the Board of Supervisors to authorize bidding again. Provine said it depends on document preparation, but staff are moving along on their intended schedule. They have been telling folks at the hall they should have everything moved out by the end of November. The hall members are working amongst themselves on where to hold their veteran meetings and social events. Provine believed they had not yet requested to use county facilities for these gatherings. Supervisor John Leach shared that the American Legion will meet at the Orland. He was unsure what the VFW had decided to do, but he said they also had the opportunity to meet in Orland. In March, the supervisors discussed design properties for the project. Based on a previous evaluation by Nichols, Melburg, and Rosetto, they authorized county staff to proceed with securing design services for

Wednesday, October 9, 2024 6:24AM Fresno State is introducing a new way for students to stay healthy. FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — Fresno State is introducing a new way for students to stay healthy. Dozens gathered at the Resnick Student Union building at Fresno State on Tuesday to officially unveil the new Wellness-to-Go vending machine. The machine is a host to several different wellness products that are offered at a low cost or free of charge. Students can get items like deodorant, ChapStick and even Narcan nasal spray for free. Fresno State Student Body President Faith Van Hoven says it’s a quick and accessible way for students to maintain their health and wellness, even when the student health center is closed. “We know students need these and to give them a resource that available and accessible is just speaks to the volumes that Fresno State can do for students,” said Van Hoven. The machine is only for Fresno State students. Van Hoven says it’s been a long but rewarding process to get the vending machine ready for the college. “A year ago when I was a
LOS ANGELES (KFSN) — Early voting is underway across California, and one important decision for voters is the open Senate seat. ABC30 co-hosted hosted the U.S. Senate Candidate Forum Tuesday in which ABC7 anchor Marc Brown moderated a discussion between Democratic candidate Rep. Adam Schiff and Republican candidate and former Dodger Steve Garvey. The two candidates answered questions on important issues facing our state and our country, including gun control, immigration, climate change and the Israel-Hamas conflict. A panel of journalists joined Brown from across the state, including Action News anchor Warren Armstrong, KGO-TV anchor Kristen Sze, and Univision Los Angeles anchor Gabriela Teissier. In case you missed it, here are the highlights: Gun control In 1994, Sen. Dianne Feinstein famously authored a ban on assault weapons, which has long since expired. Since then, ownership of weapons like AR-15s has exploded, with millions estimated to be in U.S. homes. When asked about the actions that would be taken on gun control, Garvey said he supports the Second Amendment and believes a key component is “a more stringent background check.” “I do have sympathy for all
