Where in the U.S. are homes most likely to be
broken into?
To mark National Crime Prevention Month, Fence
Gnome ranked 2023’s Most Vulnerable Cities for
Burglaries.
We compared nearly 500 of the biggest U.S. cities
based on target attractiveness — average home value
and share of single-unit detached homes — and bur-
glary prevalence.
See the 10 most vulnerable (and 10 least vulner-
able) cities for burglaries below, followed by key stats
from our report.

Once Revered, Now Maligned
A few historians and activists began to attack Colum-
bus’ legacy in the late 20th century. They concocted a new
narrative of Columbus as a rapacious pillager and a geno-
cidal maniac.
Far-left historian Howard Zinn, in particular, had a
huge impact on changing the minds of a generation of
Americans about the Columbus legacy. Zinn not only ma-
ligned Columbus, but attacked the larger migration from
the Old World to the new that he ushered in.

Everybody knows that Columbus was trying to find
gold, but they don’t know what the gold was for: to fund
a crusade to take Jerusalem back from the Muslims be-
fore the end of the world. A lot of people at the time
thought that the apocalypse was coming because of all
the signs: the plague, famine, earthquakes, and so forth.
And it was believed that before the end, Jerusalem had to
be back in Christian hands so that Christ could return in
judgment.
Columbus critics don’t just stop at accusing him of
greed. One of the biggest allegations against him is that
he waged a genocidal war and engaged in acts of cruelty
against indigenous people in the Americas.
But historians like Delaney have debunked
these claims.
Rather than cruel, Columbus was mostly be-
nign in his interaction with native populations.
While deprivations did occur, Columbus was
quick to punish those under his command who
committed unjust acts against local populations.
“Columbus strictly told the crew not to do
things like maraud, or rape, and instead to treat
the native people with respect,” Delaney said.
“There are many examples in his writings where

Key Insights:
Home burglaries are prevalent in both big cities like
Seattle (No. 3) and Las Vegas (No. 5) and smaller
ones, such as Jonesboro, Arkansas (No. 1), and Lake
Charles, Louisiana (No. 9). Jonesboro dealt with the
most burglaries per 10,000 households, while Seattle
had both high total burglaries and burglaries per
10,000 households.
Luxurious neighborhoods don’t necessarily entice
more robbers. Only 3 of our 50 most vulnerable cities
ranked among the 100 most attractive targets — Peo-
ria, Arizona (No. 2), Newport Beach, California (No.
44), and Sandy, Utah (No. 50).
Newport Beach has the highest home value of over
$3 million — over $1.2 million higher than in Sun-
nyvale, California (No. 220), with the 2nd-highest
average home value. The most expensive homes tend
to deter burglars due to enhanced security systems.
Populous cities in the North and Mid-Atlantic like
Chicago (No. 409), Philadelphia (No. 479), and
Washington (No. 480) finished at the bottom, near
Alexandria, Virginia, in last place. These cities have
historically fewer residential burglaries per household
and a smaller share of detached single-family homes,
which are prime targets for burglars.

MILLION-DOLLAR FUTURE AIRCRAFT
SOON HITTING THE SKIES
By Daniel Rosenblat Automotive @AirplanesAbout / Twitter.com to London will be cut down to no more than an hour.
This article originally appeared on Investing.com. It @DesignEngine / Twitter.com
has been republished here with permission. 5. Concorde

I t’s been a long and arduous journey, but, after many

decades in the game for some, and just a few years
for others, aircraft manufacturing companies are closer
than ever to their goals of finding the perfect balance of
size, speed, and design, that will take humanity into its
next phase of air travel.
Whether a futuristic suborbital aircraft that can travel
at more than 15,000 mph, or a completely electric-pow-
ered flying hotel, these are a few of the aircrafts that
might be hitting the skies in the, somewhat, near future.
1. Zunum’s hybrid-electric aircraft
Production Company: Zunum Aero
Feature: Hybrid
EST. Cost of Production: >$4 Million*
In the United States, the ability to fly between small
towns with ease is something that has, thus far, eluded
commuters. Founded in 2013, and backed by Boeing as
well as JetBlue Technology, Zunum Aero developed an
aircraft that was designed to help combat the longer than
necessary commutes that travelers have been forced to
embark on.
Zunum aimed to have its hybrid aircraft carry pas-
sengers, up to 700 miles, to any one of the 15,000+ air-
ports in America, and was designed to leave a small
ecological footprint by transitioning completely into an
electric vehicle once the appropriate battery technology
has been developed. Unfortunately, Zunum Aero was
not able to see its vision come to fruition, as the aircraft
manufacturer went defunct in 2019.

2. The AW609
Production Company: Leonardo S.p.A (Formerly
AgustaWestland)
Feature: Tiltrotor Technology
EST. Cost of Production: Unknown
Leonardo S.p.A’s AW609 was designed to bring the
speed of a turboprop airplane and the take-off/landing
capabilities of a helicopter together to create a tiltrotor
aircraft suitable for the civil sector. It was way back in
2002, that tests of the first prototype began, but it would
be a long time yet before this aircraft would attain its
certification.
12 years later, in 2014, certification flights began,
when the AW609 took its first customer on a demon-
stration flight. Fuelled by gasoline, not electricity, Leo-
nardo’s tiltrotor aircraft can reach speeds of 337 mph
and altitudes of 30,000 ft. After 2 decades of waiting for
the AW609 to be completed, it’s expected to, finally, be
introduced sometime in the next few years.
@bristowgroup / Twitter.com
Production Company: British Aircraft Corpora-
tion & Sud Aviation
Feature: Supersonic Speed
EST. Cost of Production: $25 Million* (1971)
Having flown its first test flight all the way back in
1969, and officially entered service in 1976, the Con-
corde holds the distinction of being the first supersonic
passenger airliner. Between 92 and 128 passengers were
able to fly on the Concorde at a time, and those who did
were in for a treat as the aircraft was capable of traveling
at 1,354 mph, or Mach 2.04.
For those counting at home, those passengers were
traveling at more than twice the speed of sound, but
traveling at supersonic speeds does come at a price. A
round-trip ticket from London to New York would have
set you back $8,000 in 1997 (~$13,000 in 2021). After
27 years of service, the Concorde was retired in 2003.

6. The Spaceliner
Production Company: German Aerospace Center
Feature: Sub-Orbital Travel
EST. Cost of Production: $33 Billion*
For those who had other things on their mind in 2021,
and missed it, the civilian space race hit new heights in
July, but instead of launching into suborbit for site-see-
ing, like Jeff Bezos’ “Blue Origin” or Richard Branson’s
“Unity 22”, the German Aerospace Center wants to use
suborbital travel to get people to their travel destinations
quicker.
Powered by 11 reusable liquid rocket engines, the
German designed Spaceliner will launch vertically into
the Earth’s suborbit. Once there, the aircraft will enter
into a high-speed glide, reaching speeds of Mach 20
(15,000 mph), while working its way down towards its
destination. A passenger’s commute from Los Angeles

7. Aerion AS2
Production Company: Aerion
Feature: Supersonic Capability
EST. Cost of Production: $120 Million*
Traveling by private jet is a privilege that a small per-
centage of humanity is privy to. In 2023, however, when
production of the Aerion AS2 begins, private jets, as we
know them, will forever be changed. It’s been said that
the Aerion AS2, or “Son of Concorde”, will be able to
traverse a distance of 4,200 nautical miles while main-
taining a speed of Mach 1.4.
The CO2 output of the AS2 has the potential to be de-
creased, via the supersonic jet’s GE engines, by up to
85% as a result of the 100% sustainable aviation fuel
that it uses. Aerion aims to have its AS2 in service by
2026 and will be able to travel from New York to Lon-
don in under 4.5 hours with 8-12 passengers onboard.
@ForbesLife / Twitter.com
8. Boom Supersonic
Production Company: Boom
Feature: Reaches Mach 2.2
EST. Cost of Production: $200 Million
In 2003, Concorde, the British-French supersonic jet,
flew its last flight – which means that it’s been almost 2
decades since there has been a civilian aircraft that could
travel at supersonic speeds. The Denver-based startup,
Boom, is aiming to end that dry spell by 2026, with
“Overture”.
On its engines, which are being developed by Rolls
Royce, Boom’s supersonic aircraft is intended to be ca-
pable of traveling at Mach 2.2 (or a little more than dou-
ble the speed of sound). Traveling at those speeds the
Overture’s 55 passengers can reach destinations around
the world in half the time it takes them now.

3. Boeing’s Blended Wing Body Air-

lifter
Production Company: Boeing
Feature: Blended Wing
EST. Cost of Production: Unknown
When designing a vehicle for the land, sea, or air,
manufacturers have, for quite some time, turned to na-
ture for inspiration. For years, planes have been de-
3 4
The Local News, October 15, 2023 hbnews1@aol.com 714.914.9797

signed to mimic the birds of the sky, perhaps, however,

designers were looking at the wrong terrain. Perhaps,
they should have been looking to the bird of the sea, the
stingray.
Still, in its concept phase, Boeing’s blended wing
body (BWB) aircraft looks like something out of a
science fiction film. The obvious benefit of the aircraft’s
design is the increased aerodynamics, however, its
unique shape also provides the aircraft with an added
lift that other designs miss out on – thus the name “Air-
lifter”.

4. 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft

Production Company: Boeing 5 6
Feature: Longer Non-Stop Flights
EST. Cost of Production: $145 Million* (2018)
Boeing’s 787 is not simply a wide-body twin-engine
jet airliner, it’s a “Dreamliner”, and with each new
model the dream keeps getting better. One of Boeing’s
later installments in the series, the 787-9, has a range of
8,786 miles and a cruising speed of Mach 0.85, or 560
mph.
Over the years, Boeing has continued to strive to pro-
vide its customers with the best service possible, and,
now, that service includes taking 280 passengers on a
non-stop 17-hour flight from Perth, Australia to London,
2 England. A world without extended airport transits is
not just a dream any longer, it’s a reality.

Most of us are inundated with brand logos almost every day. And while their
designs are often memorable for their original fonts, catchy slogans, or cute mas-
cots, some logos also have hidden details that make them even more interesting.
Here are nine U.S. brand logos that have “hidden” messages you might not be
aware of.

THE TRUTH ABOUT
COLUMBUS
he gave instructions to this effect. Most of
the time when injustices occurred, Co-
lumbus wasn’t even there. There were ter-
rible diseases that got communicated to
the natives, but he can’t be blamed for
that.”
Columbus certainly wasn’t a man with-
out flaws or attitudes that would be unac-
ceptable today.
But even as a man of an earlier age in
which violence and cruelty were often the
norm between different cultures and
people, Columbus did not engage in the
savage acts that have been pinned on him.
How Americans Once Viewed Colum-
bus
For much of the 19th and 20th cen-
turies, most Americans were taught about
Columbus’ discovery of the New World
in school.
“In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean
blue … ” went a popular poem about the
Italian explorer who flew under the Spa-
nish flag. At one time, Americans mar-
veled at what seemed like an
unbelievably courageous voyage across
unknown waters with the limited tools
and maps of the 15th century.
It is difficult in the 21st century to
imagine what Columbus faced as he
crossed the Atlantic in search of what he
thought was a route to Asia. The hardship
and danger was immense. If things went
awry, there would be nothing to save his
little flotilla besides hope, prayer, and a
little courage.
Most people, even in the 1490s, knew
that the Earth was round. However, Co-
lumbus made a nevertheless history-alter-
ing discovery.
The world was a much bigger place
than most had imagined, and though Co-
lumbus never personally realized the
scope of his discovery, he opened up a
new world that would one day become a
forefront of human civilization.
This is the man and the history that ear-
lier generations of Americans came to re-
spect and admire.
Unfortunately, Zinn and others’ carica-
ture of Columbus and American civiliza-
tion has stuck and in an era in which
radicals and activists search the country
for problematic statues to destroy, Colum-
bus is a prime target.
Ku Klux Klan Pushed Anti-Columbus
Rhetoric
Much of the modern rhetoric about Co-
lumbus mirrors attacks lobbed at him in
the 19th century by anti-Catholic and
anti-Italian groups like the Ku Klux Klan.
In fact, Columbus Day became a na-
tionally celebrated holiday following a
mass lynching of Italians in New Or-
leans—the largest incident of lynching in
American history.
In 1892—the 400th anniversary of the
Columbus voyage—President Benjamin
Harrison called for a national celebration
of Columbus and his achievements.
Americans patriotically celebrated Co-
lumbus and erected numerous statues in
his honor as the country embraced him.
Though American appreciation of Co-
lumbus deepened, some groups weren’t
pleased.
As the pro-Columbus website The
Truth About Columbus points out, the Ku
Klux Klan worked to stop Columbus Day
celebrations, smash statues, and reverse
his growing influence on American cul-
ture.
According to The Truth About Colum-
bus, in the 1920s, the Klan “attempted to
remove Columbus Day as a state holiday
in Oregon,” burned a cross “to disturb a
Columbus Day celebration in Pennsylva-
nia,” and successfully “opposed the erec-
tion of a statue of Columbus in
Richmond, Virginia, only to see the deci-
sion to reject the statue reversed.”
Attempts to quash Columbus failed, but
they have re-emerged in our own time
through the actions of far-left groups who
want to see his legacy buried and dimin-
ished forever.
This would be a tragic loss for our gen-
eration and those of the future.
The bravery and boldness that Colum-
bus displayed in his trek to America have
been inherent in the American cultural
DNA from the beginning.
We may never have the class, the taste,
the sophistication of the Old World upper
crust. But what we do have is a reverence
for simple virtues of strength, boldness,
and a willingness to push the envelope to
secure for ourselves a better future than
those who’ve come before.
We are a civilization that admires those
who push the limits of the frontier, who
don’t merely accept what is and want
something more. The spirit that drove us
west and in modernity, to the moon, is
what we celebrate in men like Columbus.
President Ronald Reagan said it best in
a Columbus Day tribute:
Columbus is justly admired as a bril-
liant navigator, a fearless man of action,
a visionary who opened the eyes of an
older world to an entirely new one. Above
all, he personifies a view of the world that
many see as quintessentially American:
not merely optimistic, but scornful of the
very notion of despair.
When we have lost these things, when
we no longer have the capacity to cele-
brate men like Columbus, as imperfect as
they sometimes were, we will have lost
what has made us great, and distinct.

With the climate crises growing to
levels of environmental catastrophe
never before witnessed and due to
human actions (and inactions) and with
healthcare, educational and employment
opportunities largely determined by
one’s economic status, is it any wonder
that to view progress or lack thereof as
a matter of class struggle is in vogue
once again? Take a look at the labor un-
rest popping up across the country,
from writers to actors, to autoworkers.
Reading and grasping Howard Zinn’s
creative reinvention of Karl Marx —
his life and his socioeconomic perspec-
tives — is not only a rich artistic ex-
perience, it portrays Marxism as
relevant today as it has ever been, per-

and his theories. Read Howard Zinn’s

Lets Her Hair

Down For Vogue,
1966
T he girl who made the pixie cut famous doesn't look half bad with hair
down to her waist, does she? Of course, Audrey Hepburn was one of
the ideals of feminine beauty in the '50s and '60s, so it was impossible for
her to look bad or even half-bad. While she sported a pixie in her early
hits Roman Holiday (1953) and Sabrina (1954), she began growing her
hair after those films, wearing her longer locks in a series of bobs, up-dos,
buns and half-beehives.
By the time of Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961), Hepburn sported a full bee-
hive, but she wasn't done yet. In My Fair Lady (1964), the girl who brought
us the pixie had very long hair, piled up in dramatic tiers like a wedding
cake. Though it's tempting to assume that her My Fair Lady coiffure was
a hairpiece, she appeared to have just as much hair, piled nearly as high,
at the movie's premiere. And then, in 1966, she did what we all must do
once in awhile -- she let her hair down. Photographer William Klein
snapped these pictures for a Vogue feature showing off Givenchy gowns.
But it's safe to say Hepburn's extremely long mane steals the show.

6 Things You
Should Know About
the Mudslide
Get the 411 on this Caribbean classic.
By Amy Zavatto
T he Mudslide may be one of the cocktail
world’s most decadent, guilty pleasures, but
unlike the time-sensitive Tom & Jerry or effort-
driven Eggnog, it’s a breeze to make. From its
history to the best way to make it, these are six
things you need to know about the often de-
rided, but undeniably enjoyable Mudslide.
1. It’s All About the Cream
The Mudslide is not a drink for the lac-
tose intolerant—this rich and frothy in-
dulgence is all about the dairy and cream
liqueurs, specifically Irish cream liqueur
and heavy cream. Subbing in a “health-
ier” alternative like 2% milk or, worse,
skim, doesn’t cut it. Add in coffee liqueur
and vodka, and the only natural disaster
in sight is the complete destruction of any
healthy diet you may have been follow-
ing.
2. Its Roots Are Caribbean
While it might seem like a drink in-
vented by someone on holiday at a ski
lodge, the Mudslide saw its birth at
Wreck Bar in Rum Point Club on Grand
Cayman Island. “We are the home of the
mudslide,” says Kyle Creasap, the food
and beverage director of Rum Point Club.
“As legend has it, the Mudslide was in-
vented here based on the fact that a cus-
tomer came in and wanted to order a
White Russian. And at that time, Wreck
Bar was just a thatched hut. We did not

that chocolate plays a key
role in the drink, like in a
Mississippi Mud Pie. Ho-
wever, the drink doesn’t call
for it as an ingredient—the
chocolate in a Mudslide
comes from the Bailey’s,
which has a little cocoa ex-
tract in it. Still, a dash of aro-
matic chocolate bitters gives
the drink a welcome layer of
complexity.
5. It’s Better
Shaken
Like any drink that utilizes
cream or cream liqueurs, the
Mudslide is one that should
be made with a firm shake,
rather than stirred. “I prefer
it shaken and served chilled,”
says Travis Sanders, head
bartender at Pennyroyal and
Shaker + Spear in Seattle. “It
creates a better balance and
flavor.” Shaking better incor-
porates the ingredients, and
lends the drink the lovely,
frothy texture it deserves.
6. Amaretto Takes
It from Muddy to
Dirty
The Local News, October 15, 2023 hbnews1@aol.com 714.914.9797
The 1980s was a flam-
boyant time for cocktails,
with plenty of creativity but
not a whole lot of propriety.
For instance, the eye roll-in-
spiring riffs on the Muds-
lide that arose: Add
amaretto, and it becomes
the colorfully monikered
Screaming Orgasm. Swap
the vodka for amaretto en-
tirely, and it’s just a regular
Orgasm. Neither name is
the classiest, and it’s inad-
visable to request one on a

first date.

The Finest Vintage Cars of the

SPECIAL 1960’s Golden Age
SECTION The Corvette is an all-American classic sports-
car, and it all started in the late fifties and early
sixties with this brilliant beast. Racing nationally
at the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) and

AUTO
showing off its stuff internationally at Le Mans,
the Corvette could match anything the Europeans
offered up. The split-window 1963 Chevrolet Cor-
vette Sting Ray Coupe is perhaps the most rec-
ognizable and most elegant body on wheels.
The Sting Ray came with a 3- or 4-speed
transmission and an overhead-valve V-8. With

1963 Volkswagen Bus Is a Tiny Camper-Hauling

Semi With a Surprise Engine Swap
Andrew Beckford

A vocal contingent of purists strongly believe

that certain classic cars should be meticu-
lously restored to their original grandeur (or
better). And when the vehicle has a cult following,
like the Volkswagen Type 2, the voices get
louder. That type of car person would hate
this particular custom, but it seems the
owner didn't much care what anyone else
would say. And that's good, because the re-
sult is really fun.
What you're looking at is a 1963 Volks-
wagen Type 2 Split Screen Bus—or, rather,
a '63 Bus and another Type 2 that have been
cut up and mashed together for a truly
unique take on a fifth-wheel concept. The
one-off conversion was completed by the
owner who is now offering it for sale at Ca-
rAndClassic.com. The owner started by
chopping most of the rear end off of one of
the buses, reinforcing the chassis, and turn-
ing it into a truck. Detail shots of the build
show that the owner did a clean job. The
owner didn't stop there, tossing the stock
flat-four engine in favor of a 2.0-liter tur-
bocharged engine sourced from an Audi S3
paired with an automatic gearbox.
That extra power and torque is more than
enough to tow the second Type 2, which
has been converted into a camper trailer Images by Cars & Classic used with permission.

Here’s Where Shell

Opened Its Largest
EV Station
A charging plaza with 258 fast-charging stalls is now
a reality, but when will we see these here?
BY JAY RAMEY PUBLISHED:
• Shell has opened its largest EV station in the world outside the airport in Shenz-
hen, China, with 258 fast-charging stalls.
• The energy company is experimenting with converting gas stations to EV charg-
ing stations, complete with solar cells on canopies for extra power generation.
• Some efforts are under way in the US to bring large charging plazas with dozens
of connectors to the US East Coast, but such projects have yet to come online.

 FOODS YOU’LL NEVER EAT AGAIN
AFTER YOU KNOW THE INGREDIENTS.
OR MAYBE SHOULD NOT
EAT AGAIN SCARY...
T he food market continues to ex-
pand at an accelerated rate,
with manufacturers and brands add-
ing new products every day. Busi-
ness is booming, with grocery store
sales having more than doubled in
the last 30 years in the US alone.
Consumers love to consume pro-
ducts that are tasty and cost-effec-
tive, but have we ever stopped to
look behind the veil and investigate
exactly what’s in our foods? From
beaver butt secretion to sheep
sebum in our chewing gum, there’s
a lot out there that you won’t find
advertised at Walmart.
Packaged Bread
Company: Grupo Bimbo and
others
Market Share: $42.4 billion*
Ingredient: L-cysteine
There was a time (albeit many
moons ago) when sliced bread was
just a dream. People had to bake their
own or buy straight from the baker,
but these days it’s a common house-
hold item. However, there’s a reason
why freshly-baked bread only lasts a
couple of days when packaged bread
can last weeks.
It’s all down to L-cysteine, which
isn’t just any old regular preservative.
The compound is natural, but that
doesn’t make it any better. It’s ac-
tually derived from human hair. Ac-
cording to Disney’s Vice, the most
popular source for this is hair salons
in China. Hair is swept up, dissolved
in acid, the L-cysteine is removed,
and away it goes to bakeries to go
into bread.

Chocolate Bars
Company: Mars and others
Market Share: $114 billion total
chocolate market*
Ingredient: Insect legs
We have to apologize in advance,
but nothing is sacred these days.
Chocolate is something most of us
enjoy in hearty amounts, which is
why it’s such a beloved snack food.
Even chocolate isn’t safe from con-
tamination though apparently.
Guidelines state that chocolate bars
usually have around eight insect legs
inside on average, while still passing
inspection. Next time you get a crun-

chy bar, take a minute and think
about what’s giving it that texture. Is
it nuts, is it caramel, or is it a beetle
that came along for the ride and died
from misadventure?

Boxed Vegetable Pasta
Company: Barilla, Good &
Gather, etc.
Market Share: $78 billion by
2029* (Total Pasta Market)
Ingredient: Same bad stuff as
regular pasta
If we were willing to take a guess,
we’d assume that most people choos-
ing veggie boxed pasta over regular
pasta were doing so because they
thought the former would be health-
ier than the latter. Well, hold onto
your hats because, if you check the
back of the box on both of these pas-
tas, you’ll likely find that the two
have the same high carb count.
Should you want a healthy vege-
table pasta, consider making an in-
vestment into a spiralizer. These
machines cost $30-$70 on average,
and they will literally turn actual

All you have to do is cook the newly-
transformed vegetables (and add a
healthy sauce, of course).

The American Companies That Aren’t Actually American Anymore

By Kate Prince/Business Pocket Gems Inc Fisker Automotive Inc

M
any brilliant companies – from Apple to Star-
bucks – have been founded in the United
States, starting out as small ventures to be-
come international leaders in their fields. However, the
world of business isn’t always as straightforward as it
looks. Regardless of how well-rooted a company’s
American history is, it doesn’t mean that it will always
belong to Uncle Sam.
In fact, many quintessentially American brands are no
longer American-owned at all.
From Ben and Jerry’s to IBM and
Holiday Inn, overseas investors
have played a big part in keeping
these companies moving forward.
Without them stepping in, some of
them may have ceased to exist al-
together.
French’s

Country: England
French’s condiments have been
accompanying meals in the
United States dating back to the
first mustard the R.T. French
Company made, way back in
1904. A little more than two dec-
ades after it had produced its first
product, French’s was acquired by
the UK-based J. & J. Colman in
1926.
While expanding and diversifying its portfolio, this
classic American brand remained in British hands for
the remaining years of the 20th century. However, un-
like the other products on this list, French’s has returned
home. In 2017, McCormick & Company brought
French’s back to America.

Before mobile phones evolved into the magic boxes
they are today, mobile gaming consisted of attempting
to dominate your friends’ scores in Snakes or making as
far as you could in one of the few memory-based games
that existed at the time. But that was then, and this is
now. And now, mobile gaming is one of the most prof-
itable industries around.
San Fran-based Pocket Gems Inc has been making
waves in the mobile gaming world for quite some time,
but even industry vets need a cash infusion now and
then. In 2017. Shenzhen-based Tencent added to its 20%
stake in Pocket Gems Inc by incorporating another $90
million of its wealth into the company. Upping its own-
ership percentage to 38%.

America has remained one of the world’s largest car
producers throughout the years and has had several of
the industry’s best minds working on ways to constantly
improve the vehicles’ designs. As the world has
switched focus to “going electric,” American electric
car companies like Fisker Automotive used the genius
of their resident techies to top the
class yet again.
The only thing is, the Anaheim-
based Fisker Automotive isn’t Amer-
ican-owned anymore. Despite
creating an eco-friendly luxury elec-
tric vehicle, Fisker went under in
2014, only to be purchased by China’s
Wanxiang Group. The Chinese com-
pany has since resurrected Fisker’s
pride and joy, the electric Fisker
Karma, for the new generation of
electric car drivers.

FAMOUS MURDERS
THAT REMAIN
UNSOLVED
By Thomm Quackenbush
Despite what television would have you believe, not every mur-
der is solved in under an hour. No matter how much effort police
put into the cases at the time and amateur sleuths do afterward,
some murders will never be solved.
That's not to say that all unsolved murders are created equal. For
some, almost everything about the case is unknown: the culprit,
the victim's identity, the method, the motive. On occasion, the best
the police can tell the public is that someone was definitely killed,
but anything after that is nebulous. With other cases, everyone
knows who did it, but they managed to get acquitted or gave the
police an alibi. In still others, the only reason that witnesses aren't
pointing fingers at the culprit is that these fingers will be immedi-
ately cut off — along with their heads.
However, for what little good it did for the victims, sometimes
being unable to solve a murder drives those left behind to improve
the world so that no one else has to suffer the same fate.

BOB CRANE:
HOGAN'S HERO

United Archives/Getty Images

Bob Crane was most famously known for his eponymous role
in "Hogan's Heroes" — the only hit he ever had despite nearly two
decades in the industry. AZCentral reports that his body was found
in a Scottsdale, Arizona, apartment on June 29, 1978, his skull
broken and an electrical cord wrapped around his neck.
Owing to the downturn of his career, Crane ended up working
the dinner theater circuit, which brought him into a friendship with
John Carpenter. The two would hook up with Crane's fans. Since
Carpenter was always at the cutting edge of videography, Crane
used him to make allegedly sometimes non-consensual videos of
the sessions. That alone could give a jilted husband motive to end
Crane's life, but one of the main suspects was Carpenter himself.
Carpenter was brought to trial in 1994, based on a speck on a
photo that prosecutors said might have been fat from inside Crane's
skull. The Phoenix New Times quoted Carpenter: "I never even
had a fight with Bob, goddammit. He was my friend. And he was
the goose who laid the golden egg for me, in terms of meeting
ladies." In the end, the forensic evidence was too weak for con-
viction. The Scottsdale police had failed to secure the crime scene
The Local News, October 15, 2023 hbnews1@aol.com 714.914.9797

and even lost the supposed human tissue.

In 2017, a Phoenix television anchor wrote a book about the
case: He had managed to analyze some blood found on Carpenter's
rental car. It did not match Crane.

CALIFORNIA — Billionaires in the Golden State got
richer in 2023, according to The Forbes 400, an annual rank-
ing of America’s super rich released Tuesday.
Overall, the 400 richest billionaires in America are worth
$4.5 trillion, tying a record set in 2021. They are about $500
billion richer than they were a year ago, in large part because
of rebounding stock markets and an AI-driven tech boom,
Forbes said.
Billionaires had to have a net worth at least $2.9 billion to
be included on the prestigious list, up from $2.7 billion a
year ago. Forbes said its net worth calculations use stock
prices from Sept. 8.
Oracle software development company founder Larry El-
lison, 79, is the richest person in California. His worth is an
estimated $158 billion and ranks third on the overall list.
Last year, Ellison ranked fourth with $107 billion and was
new to California's list.
Ellison skyrocketed to the top of the state's billionaires list,
beating last year's number one Larry Page worth $114 bil-
lion. Other big names from California that made Forbes' top
400 include filmmakers George Lucas (net worth $4.9 bil-
lion) and Steven Spielberg (net worth $4.88 billion)
This year, however, the richest people in California, hail
from the tech world (Oracle, Meta, Airbnb, Alphabet, What-
sApp, and Apple), finance and private equity, and real es-
d
tate.
Notable billionaire entertainers and athletes aren't on the
list this year. That includes Oprah ($2.8 billion), Kim Kar-
dashian ($1.7 billion), Jay-Z ($2.5 billion), Tiger Woods ($1
billion), and LeBron James ($1 billion).

Last Call:
These Chain Stores Are Closing Locations in 2023
The retail sector can often be fickle, even when the
company is loved and established. Some of the titans in
the industry have faced tough times in recent years,
with even the seemingly infallible ones shuttering loca-
tions for good.
From Aldi to Costco, Walmart, and even designer
stores, it looks like no one is safe. Business status can
change on a dime, but let’s see which household names
are closing the doors for good in 2023. Will your local
store be next – or has it managed to escape the retail
apocolypse?
Westfield Malls
Year Established: 1960
Store Closures: TBD
American is well-known for its shopping malls, some
of which are operated by Westfield. Malls and depart-
ment stores have been hard hit in recent times, so it’s
hardly surprising that some mall landlords are looking
to change their strategy.
Westfield announced plans to “significantly reduce
its financial exposure to US assets in 2021/2022” ac-
cording to Retail Dive. It’s not clear which locations
will be on the chopping block, but it’s likely that some
may close, while others may be sold on.

Becca Cosmetics
Year Established: 2001
Store Closures: All locations
Becca Cosmetics operated for two decades before it
took a devastating blow in 2001. At the start of 2021,
fans were shocked to read a statement posted to Becca’s
socials alerting them to the closure of the brand.
It read, “At BECCA, an accumulation of chal-
lenges…has sadly been more than our business can
withstand, and we have had to make the heartbreaking
www.HBLocalNews.com
decision to close down the BECCA brand at the end of
September 2021.” After that date, all products were re-
moved from sale in stores and online.

Fresh Acquisitions
Year Established: 1946
Store Closures: All locations
Fresh Acquisitions owns six restaurant chains includ-
ing Ryan’s, Old Country Buffet, HomeTown Buffet,
Fire Mountain, and Furr’s. At the height of its success,
it had multiple locations across 27 states, but in the mid-
dle of 2021 Fresh announced it was filing for bank-
ruptcy.
Tahoe Joe’s will be one of the company’s only re-
maining brands when all other businesses are closed,
while Furr’s will be getting somewhat of an image re-
vamp and fewer locations. The company expressed a
desire to emerge from bankruptcy in a much stronger
position.

Aldi
Year Established: 1946
Store Closures: TBD*
Aldi became famous as a European grocery store be-
fore becoming a popular US brand in recent years. That
being said, even Aldi faced tough times during 2020.
However, unlike some other stores, Aldi managed to
emerge from the crisis relatively unscathed.
Despite a handful of temporary closures, Aldi has
managed to come out on top. It’s one of few retailers
looking to increase its presence in the US, opening 100
stores over the next period. There’s no denying that Aldi
is the exception to an otherwise disastrous time in retail
history.

cork. Contrary to hardwood, production of cork only
requires the outer bark of a tree. Cork contains a nat-
ural waxy substance called suberin that prevents water
and gasses from penetrating through. Accordingly,
cork flooring offers excellent insulation, energy con-
servation, durability of up to 30 years, and natural hy-
poallergenic and insect-repellent properties. However,
cork floors are often stained and coated, so look out
for VOCs in the additives. Yet another great green
choice for kitchen floors is Marmoleum, a naturally
germicidal, waterproof and VOC-free form of lino-
leum composed of 97 percent natural material.
Upgrading to modern, energy-efficient appliances
is another way to make your kitchen remodel pay div-
idends for the planet. Keep an eye out for appliances
bearing the EnergySTAR certification, which ensures
that the appliance you are eyeing meets or beats U.S.
Department of Energy standards for energy efficiency.
This will help lower your greenhouse gas emissions
and also reduce your energy bill. Another earth-
friendly upgrade would be to ditch the gas stove for
an all-electric induction model; you’ll not only lower
your carbon footprint but also probably improve the
indoor air quality inside your home.

Why Is It So Cold on Airplanes?
Passengers often complain about the cold tempera-
ture in airplane cabins. Flight staff will provide pas-
sengers with a blanket, but they don’t ever increase
the heat. That’s because the temperature on an aircraft
has been set in a very intentional way — and it’s for
your safety.
A study by ATSM International found that people
were more likely to faint on an aircraft than on the
ground due to a condition called hypoxia. The pres-
surized environment of an airplane cabin can prevent
our body from getting enough oxygen, which causes
fainting. The warmer the temperature onboard the air-
craft, the more likely this is to happen. To prevent pas-
sengers from passing out, airlines intentionally lower
the cabin temperature. While this might be slightly un-
comfortable, it’s much safer for your body.
Why Is New York Called “the Big Apple”?

From the Mailbag
714.536.6300
Matej Kastelic/ Shutterstock
Before it was used to refer to the city that never
sleeps, “big apple” was an idiom used to mean a very
big deal, an object of great desire or big dreams. The
first time New York City was referred to as a “big
apple” in print may have been in 1909, when American
journalist Edward S. Martin wrote in his book The
Wayfarer in New York that those in the Midwest are
“apt to see in New York a greedy city … it inclines to
think that the big apple gets a disproportionate share
of the national sap.” The phrase doesn’t seem to have
been intended as a nickname, however.
It was actually a horse-racing column published by
the New York Morning Telegraph that popularized the
term. “The dream of every lad that ever threw a leg
over a thoroughbred and the goal of all horsemen.
There’s only one Big Apple. That’s New York,” racing
RAW-films/ Shutterstock
journalist John J. Fitz Gerald wrote in a 1924 column
eventually called “Around the Big Apple.” However,
Fitz Gerald apparently first heard the term from two
Black stable hands in New Orleans. As etymologist
Michael Quinion explains, “the Big Apple was the
New York racetracks … the goal of every aspiring
jockey and trainer … for those New Orleans stable
hands the New York racing scene was a supreme op-
portunity, like an attractive big red apple.” The expres-
sion was later further popularized by jazz musicians
in the 1920s and 1930s, then picked up in the 1970s
by Charles Gillett, president of the New York Conven-
tion and Visitors Bureau, who began a tourism cam-
paign around the slogan.

MCCARTHY DOES NOT RULE OUT RETURNING AS SPEAKER
IF GOP DEADLOCKED
The Hill / EMILY BROOKS we need to be united. The eight, in my view, don’t avoid a government shutdown, infuriating the hard-

F ormer Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) did not

rule out returning to the post if
the House Republican Conference
cannot decide on a replacement.
Conservative radio host Hugh He-
witt asked McCarthy — who lost the
gavel last week after eight House
Republicans joined with Democrats
to oust him — on Monday whether
he would serve again as Speaker if
Republicans are deadlocked on a re-
placement.
“Look, the conference has to make
that decision. I’m still a member. I’m
going to continue to fight and act,”
McCarthy said.
Pressed again on whether he
would take the job again if the eight GOP members
who opposed him retreated, McCarthy remained
open to the possibility.
“Look, whatever the conference wants, I will do,”
McCarthy said. “I think we need to be strong. I think
look to be — it was a personal thing.”
He expressed frustration with the Republicans who
voted against a GOP-only stopgap proposal. The
party’s repeated failure to pass a temporary funding
bill that included spending cuts and policy provisions
prompted McCarthy to pass a “clean” stopgap to
line GOP members who then voted to oust him.
McCarthy defended the decision, pointing to the
war breaking out in Israel.
“They’re the ones who wanted a government shut-
down,” McCarthy said. “We wouldn’t be paying our
troops while we’re putting out a carrier strike fighter
there – 30,000 American men and women in our
armed services in the Middle East wouldn’t be being
paid right now? I mean, what weakness would we
be at?”
Some Republicans, such as Rep. John Duarte (R-
Calif.) and Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Calif.), have
argued that McCarthy should be reinstated as
Speaker, particularly in light of the new war in Is-
rael.
House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) and
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan
(R-Ohio) are running to replace McCarthy as
Speaker. The House GOP is set to have a candidate
forum Tuesday and an internal conference election
Wednesday.

years. California approaches the next
rainy season in much better shape than
in years past.
After several years of drought, the
state Department of Water Resources
said last year was the sixth-wettest on
record, and with the prospect of a
strong El Niño winter ahead, Califor-
nia's water supply could soar even
higher.
"This impressive turnaround has put
us in a much better position this season
in case we see a return to dry con-
ditions," said Ted Craddock, deputy di-
rector of the State Water Project. "And
we'll also be in a position to capture as

communities and meeting environ-
mental and water delivery needs."
State officials measure "water years"
from October through September an-
nually so that the numbers capture the
full extent of the fall and winter months
when California gets most of its rain
and snow. Last year, for the first time
since 2006, the State Water Project de-
livered all water allocations to the pub-
lic water agencies and farmlands it
serves.
In Southern California, several areas
landed in the top 10 water years on
record, including downtown Los An-
geles, which logged its seventh-wettest
year since records began in
1877.
Around the Bay Area, rainfall
totals for the water year were
165 percent of normal in Oak-
land, 148 percent in San Fran-
cisco, and 114 percent in San
Jose. Bountiful Northern Cali-
fornia rain left the Central Valley
Project with twice as much
drought, when water reservoirs dipped
dangerously low, California ended its
water year with reservoirs at 128 per-
cent of their historical average — one
of the best performances on record.
Lake Oroville saw the biggest boon,
where the State Water Project captured
3.5 million acre-feet of water in reser-
voirs, ending the water year at 136 per-
cent of average, up from just 64
percent the year before. The San Luis
Reservoir in Merced County ended the
water year at 190 percent.
"Big picture, this was as close to a
miracle year as you can get after fol-
lowing just the intensity of drought
conditions," DWR Director Karla Ne-
meth said Tuesday.
The eye-popping totals were aided
by a seemingly unending series of at-
mospheric rivers last year and historic
snowfall in the mountains. Late-season
storms helped propel California's state-
wide snowpack to 237 percent of its
historical average in April, surpassing
the 200 percent mark for just the fourth
make room for more rain, and will be
keeping a close eye on flood manage-
ment and dam safety efforts in the
event of another wet winter.
The Climate Prediction Center's la-
test projections show a 95 percent
chance that El Niño conditions will
stick around into early 2024, with a 71
percent chance that it will be strong.
While no two El Niños are the same,
stronger patterns tend to correlate with
wetter winters in California, reaching
peak strength between November and
January.
Newly updated seasonal outlooks
slightly favor above-average precipita-
tion for Southern California between
December and February, with equal
chances for the central and northern
portions of the Golden State.
The National Oceanic and At-
mospheric Administration will release
its 2023-24 U.S. Winter Outlook later
this month.

I Shot Andy Warhol (1996)
This 1996 film is based on the life of the radical feminist writer, Valerie Solanas. Actress
Lili Taylor portrays Solanas during the dark and troubling time in her life that led her to
murdering Andy Warhol. The story goes that after Solanas felt rejected by Warhol, she then
tried to get her book published by French publisher Maurice Girodias. After confusion over
the rights, she felt compelled to kill Warhol after feeling that him and Giordas were con-
spiring against her.
After a mental health evaluation, Solanas was declared mentally unstable and transferred
to the prison ward of Elmhurst Hospital. The film was first screened in 1996 at Cannes,
opening up to mainly positive reviews, and holds a 75% approval rating from critics on
Rotten Tomatoes. It holds the same score on fellow review site, Metacritic.
