The dirty secret of urban hellscape movies drenched in rain and blood is that when it comes down to it, they don’t so much trigger worries about future blight as they do tourism fantasies. (When are theme parks going to figure out that “The Blade Runner Experience” would surely break attendance records?) Alex Proyas’ 1994 fever dream “The Crow,” adapted from James O’Barr’s graphic novel, understood that appeal implicitly, serving up tactile gothic vengeance in a dashed Detroit with the panache of a circus grotesque. But in our current glut of movie dystopias, we’ve gotten away from that kind of immersive showmanship. Case in point, the dreary, pedestrian and ho-hum retelling of O’Barr’s story, also called “The Crow,” this time directed by Rupert Sanders. It’s like an anti-entertainment protest. This time around, the wraithlike Bill Skarsgård is our back-from-the-dead avenger. But before he gets to ring his eyes with black paint for a slaydate with crow-powered destiny, he’s given an interminable amount of screen time to be broken, glum Eric, a loner still depressed about the death of his childhood horse (seriously) and whiling away

CHICAGO —  On the final night of the Democratic National Convention, expectations were high and rumors were rampant. Speculation of a surprise guest — Taylor Swift? Beyoncé? — turned out to be nothing but wishful thinking. No matter. Kamala Harris crushed it. The vice president was always the main attraction of the four-day event and her Thursday night acceptance speech was always intended as its grand finale. From the moment she strode out flashing her high-wattage smile, Harris commanded the stage with a purpose and passion that eluded her the last time she ran, aimlessly and unsuccessfully, for the White House. In just over 37 minutes, Harris capped what’s been a remarkable monthlong run of luck and political success with a powerful address that strongly positions her for the last stretch of this fiercely fought presidential campaign. Our columnists, Mark Z. Barabak and Anita Chabria — who, combined, have attended precisely zero Swift or Beyoncé concerts — overcame their disappointment at the no-show and collected themselves to share these thoughts. Barabak: Previewing this convention, I’d made fun of the breathless most-important-speech-of-her-career hype that anticipated Harris’ Thursday

Why Inflation cooling in July matters Inflation cooled in July but housing prices and rent costs remain high 04:00 The Justice Department on Friday filed an antitrust lawsuit against RealPage, a property management software provider, alleging it enabled a collusion among landlords to inflate rents for millions of Americans.  The complaint claims the Richardson, Texas-based company and its competitors engaged in a price-fixing scheme by sharing nonpublic, sensitive information, which RealPage’s algorithmic pricing software used to generate pricing recommendations. The company replaced competition with rent coordination to the detriment of renters across the U.S., according to the suit, monopolizing the market through its revenue management software which was used by landlords to determine rent costs.  The DOJ is joined by the attorneys general of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington. The complaint alleges that RealPage violated sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act, an antitrust law. “Americans should not have to pay more in rent because a company has found a new way to scheme with landlords to break the law,” Attorney General Merrick B. Garland said in a statement

August 23, 2024 / 10:56 AM EDT / CBS/AP Sitting pretty: Colonial Williamsburg furniture restoration Sitting pretty: Colonial Williamsburg furniture restoration 06:18 Archaeologists in Virginia are uncovering one of colonial America’s most lavish displays of opulence: An ornamental garden where a wealthy politician and enslaved gardeners grew exotic plants from around the world. Such plots of land dotted Britain’s colonies and served as status symbols for the elite. They were the 18th-century equivalent of buying a Lamborghini. The garden in Williamsburg belonged to John Custis IV, a tobacco plantation owner who served in Virginia’s colonial legislature. He is perhaps best known as the first father-in-law of Martha Washington. She married future U.S. President George Washington after Custis’ son Daniel died. Historians have also been intrigued by the elder Custis’ botanical adventures, which were well-documented in letters and books. And yet this excavation is as much about the people who cultivated the land as it is about Custis. “The garden may have been Custis’ vision, but he wasn’t the one doing the work,” said Jack Gary, executive director of archaeology at Colonial Williamsburg, a living history

A California beach has been closed for a week as hundreds of sea lions congregate on the shore, with city officials blocking the area off and federal officials warning that feeding or harassing the animals are against the law. The City of Monterey’s Parks Division officially closed San Carlos Beach on Monday, Aug. 19, blocking the area off with barricades and warning visitors to remain at least 50 yards away from the wild marine mammals. The National Oceanic And Atmospheric Administration Fisheries Service’s Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary said that along with hundreds of mostly male sea lions, some sea otter moms and pups were also spotted in the area, and are also federally protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the National Marine Sanctuaries Act. A large number of adult California sea lions congregate along beaches in Monterey. (NOAA’s Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary) “Obey federal law and resist the desire to get too close. NOAA’s wildlife viewing guidelines are to stay at least 50 yards (150 feet) from seals and sea lions, whenever possible,” the sanctuary said. Divers in the area are

A historic ballpark in Ontario used in the filming of several popular baseball movies went up in flames overnight. The fire was reported around 11:30 p.m. Thursday at Jay Littleton Ball Park in the 1000 block of North Grove Avenue.

The Atascadero Chamber of Commerce launched the “Get your Business Online!” program last year. Since then, officials with the Atacadero Chamber of Commerce have said they have supported 131 businesses in northern San Luis Obispo County by creating and launching customized websites tailored to their needs. Steven Beck is the owner of a small family-owned vineyard called Loma Seca Vineyards in Paso Robles. He was introduced to the Get Your Business Online! program by the chamber. I have to sort of wear a lot of hats, said Beck. The vineyard hat, the winery hat, the tasting room hat, and one of the hats that didn’t fit so well was the make-your-own website hat, which I had never done before. The chamber received a grant of under $200,000 last year to fund the program. Jose Guadarrama, the program’s coordinator, educates local businesses on how to build a website for free. Beck says he was happy about the services he received from the program. They offered to help improve it and send someone out, said Beck. They did some drone footage for me and I put the
