Watch: Dolphins Absolutely Launch Themselves 10-Feet into the Air Off Orange County

Apparently, the Pacific Airshow in Huntington Beach, CA isn’t the only aerial spectacle happening along the Orange County coast. Wild footage captured during a local whale-watching trip shows a pod of dolphins absolutely launching themselves from the Pacific, rocketing several body lengths into the air before crashing

You leave the sprinkler timer alone, but the EPA says inefficient irrigation and overwatering...

In my Riverside ranch house, I used to leave the sprinkler timer alone once I had settled on a schedule. The days and minutes were already set; it was easy to treat them as the lawn’s standing order. As of mid-September 2026, with fall ahead, that old habit is the one I’m questioning here in California. A timer can kee

In my ranch house in Riverside, I understand the reflex: catch the mouse alive, carry the trap outside, release it, and feel as though the house is safe again.

The bug went in there, so it seems sensible to send the insecticide after it. I understand the impulse. I have looked at a wall plate and wanted the problem handled right where

You add laundry sanitizer to every load, but the CDC says regular detergent is...

In Riverside, I used to add laundry sanitizer to ordinary loads because I thought detergent alone left the job unfinished. As of mid-September 2026, this season’s piles of everyday clothes still make that reflex tempting in my house. A retailer’s product listing tells shoppers to add sanitizer to every wash. That is a

I’m Marisol Ochoa, and in my Riverside house, I used to mix baking soda and vinegar when I wanted to scrub a hard-water deposit. The fizz made the mixture look stronger than either ingredient alone. As of mid-September 2026, I still understand the reflex: when a stain holds on, it is tempting to judge a cleaner by how
