Julia Oliveira has one of the most sprawling territories of any law enforcement officer in California. An Indigenous person originally from Oklahoma, she investigates cold cases — unsolved killings and disappearances — for the Yurok Tribe of Northern California, whose reservation stretches through the soaring sequoias of rural Humboldt and Del Norte counties. It’s a 2½-hour journey to drive across the tribe’s land; there’s only cellphone service for 10 to 20 minutes of that trip.

At first blush, it might not seem like a big deal that the National Park Service is removing a corroded, sea-weathered chain railing at the southern end of the Golden Gate Bridge. But the barrier, it turns out, is surprisingly beloved. Located on Marine Drive heading to Fort Point, the chain is visible in the foreground of countless bridge photographs on Instagram, its rusty metal links adding a texture of warmth and decay to one of America’s most breathtaking natural views.

OneWaiting for someone to turn on the microphone clipped to his blue button-down shirt, Malibu attorney Kevin Shenkman cracked a joke at his own expense. He struck a pose like one of those personal-injury lawyers who advertise on billboards, holding out his right arm and pointing. “I will fight for YOU,” he said, laughing. It was a weekday in June, and Shenkman stood at a podium in an auditorium at UC Law San Francisco, facing an audience of professors. He might have been a bit nervous.

Sad news: the Trump admin halted construction on a ship named for Elizebeth Friedman, WWII codebreaking hero. Ship is partly built & they're scrapping it for parts! Only 1 other cutter in its class is named for a woman. DHS blames delays. Seems like BS to me.

Man what a joy to watch Musetti play. Beautiful game, and also, you can see him adapt, figure things out. His inner monologue seems transparent in such a generous and entertaining way
