If the Cal women beat Sacramento State on Thursday night, the Bears will run their record to 8-0 — the best start in the program’s history. “I had a chance to go back to Cal this year, and while I was talking to Coach (Lindsay Gottlieb), players started walking up and thanking me,” said Alexis Gray-Lawson, who was the point guard on the 2008-09 team that established the school record at 7-0. Along the way, that 2005 recruiting class, which included posts Ashley Walker and Devanei Hampton, put its fingerprints all over the Cal record books. Читать дальше...

On Wednesday, head coach Chip Kelly said Blaine Gabbert will remain the backup behind Colin Kaepernick for Sunday’s game against the Jets, which suggests third-stringer Christian Ponder will stay inactive. Really, it was just who was going to be the starting quarterback against the Jets, and then let’s go forward because part of game-planning evolves around who’s pulling the trigger. Kaepernick’s starting status was discussed because he completed 1 of 5 passes for 4 yards and took five sacks in a 26-6 loss in Chicago. Читать дальше...

For Raiders, knocking off Kansas City would be cold comfort Oakland has won six games in a row, but that will mean a lot less if it doesn’t win here, in the biggest game of its storied rivalry with Kansas City since 2002. The Raiders are 10-2 and in first place in the AFC West, but the Chiefs (9-3) are just a game behind, and with a win would complete a season sweep and thereby own the tiebreaker against the Raiders. “Makes it more exciting,” Mack said, smiling. Players spent more time watching... Читать дальше...

The Senate late Wednesday night approved the measure that would allow guns in places such as colleges and day cares and on private aircraft. An Ohio Senate committee has approved a bill to expand the state's concealed weapons law to allow guns in places such as colleges and day cares and on private aircraft.

Jessica Chastain’s career so far has been a mix of mild successes and flat-out triumphs, but her performance in “Miss Sloane” stands as a particular highlight. The film calls for Chastain to enter into her fierce, hard-charging, single-minded mode, an aspect of her screen persona that we’ve seen recently in some of her supporting roles (“Crimson Peak,” “A Most Violent Year”). In “Miss Sloane,” Chastain’s lipstick is the color of fresh blood, and her skin is as pale as a vampire’s. Miss Sloane... Читать дальше...

When the second alarm buzzed his cell phone at 11:31 p.m. Friday, the Rev. Jayson Landeza got out of his bedclothes and into his “turnout” in the rectory of St. Benedict in East Oakland. By the time he’d driven his black Crown Victoria 10 minutes to the Ghost Ship fire, he’d transformed himself from Catholic priest to “minister of presence.” What he does is stand there with his coat open so his clerical collar is visible collar, with an open expression on his face to show that he’s approachable.

The Boy Who Inspired ‘Hook’ and 19 Other Little-Known Facts as Film Turns 25 (Photos) The initial idea for the 1991 Steven Spielberg film “Hook” came when screenwriter Jim Hart’s young son Jake asked him an innocent question one day: “What if Peter Pan grew up?” “It happened at the dinner table one night when he was six years old,” Hart told TheWrap. “He was in all of the battle scenes, trained with combat choreographers and played on that set all summer,” said Hart of his son’s uncredited role — one that Spielberg personally offered to him.

LOS ANGELES — It wasn’t until Rick Barry retired from basketball in 1980 that he fully appreciated the man who called his Warriors games. Barry came to appreciate the nuances of King’s style: the excitement in his voice after a big moment; the way he verbalized plays as they unfolded; how he always seemed to find the right word no matter the situation. Perhaps best known as the longtime voice of the Raiders and A’s, King called Warriors games from 1962 to 1983. [...] integral was King to the Warriors that Barry... Читать дальше...

While most premieres at the El Capitan only close down about two blocks’ worth of the boulevard for a few hours, the “Star Wars” standalone movie is no already film and has sparked road closures stretching all the way from Highland to Vine days before the stars hit the red carpet.  Star Wars Celebration and other conventions like it often boast full set pieces, such as the Mos Eisley Cantina as well as fan-made replicas of the AT-AT and the Rancor (affectionately nicknamed Roxy) so the idea of...

DETROIT — A federal judge who ordered Michigan to begin its recount effectively ended it on Wednesday, tying his decision to a state court ruling that found Green Party candidate Jill Stein had no legal standing to request another look at ballots.

State Senate President Keith Faber, a Republican from Celina, said the twice-defeated bill came back up again because of Republican Donald Trump's presidential victory and the expectation he will fill Supreme Court vacancies with justices who are more likely to uphold stricter abortion bans.

Wade ruling establishing a nationwide right to abortion, states were permitted to restrict abortions after viability — the point when the fetus has a reasonable chance... Читать дальше...
