Coastal flooding and extreme surf are expected through Saturday, with even the Newport Pier’s north side offering only minimal relief.

Designed to teach robotics and coding, Sally was meant to support—not replace—teachers, with its curriculum crafted by Steve Wozniak and strict privacy safeguards in place. Critics, including teachers’ unions, fear automation could erode human connections in education, while Realbotix insists Sally is a purpose-built educational tool, not a modified sex doll. The district is now negotiating stronger privacy agreements and engaging the community as it weighs whether to proceed.

Pentagon Redefines Casualty Tracking | Irvine News

Listeners of Irvine News Today receive 10% off with code LANEWS10. theplantdaddies.com/lanews [http://theplantdaddies.com/lanews] The Pentagon’s casualty tracking just got a major update — a new “Overseas Operations” category is now logging troops killed or wounded in recent Iran clashes, effectively removing them from the “Operation Epic Fury” tally. Four soldiers killed last week — three in Jordan, one in Iraq — are now counted under this fresh classification, pushing the total wounded to 642. Officials say it’s a data fix, not a cover-up, citing “anomalies” and “temporary disruptions” being resolved. The move follows renewed hostilities after a ceasefire, and marks a shift in how the military tracks the human cost of escalating regional tensions.
