Tom Sandoval And Victoria Lee Robinson Host Birthday Bash At Sugarshack Downtown


Instagram/@tomsandoval1

A birthday celebration in Sugarshack Downtown this Sunday is anything but dull, and the word has started to spread virtually. The meet-and-greet and cocktails together promise to be a very exclusive affair with enough opportunities for photos-there’s no RSVP or cover charge. Just get there in the afternoon, grab a drink, and absorb the vibes from 4 to 7.

A promotional poster for the event is overflowing with life, having Sandoval and Robinson emblazoned across boldly contrasted backgrounds. The Sandoval side has very elaborate and almost regal sort of imaging, whereas the Robinson side went moody and edgy with piercing blue eyes. And then the text jumps at you from the orange background with all the great reasons to visit: celebrity shots, selfies, and just downright fiercely fun birthday celebrations. The sponsors-Tito’s Vodka and Pilar Rum-are a rather subdued endorsement (surely, they threw some freebies in there).

From hype to FOMO, reactions went the whole gamut. In all capitals, one exclaimed, “I’M SO PUMPED FOR THIS TO CELEBRATE!” Meanwhile, another lamented, “Omg I wish I could go.” It looked like guest lists were actually sowing themselves in real time: One tags the squad; there’s another one who asks: “Who ya bringing? 👀” And this mini-festival-launching episode clearly proved: Even in this Digital Age, party planning remains a matter for the team.

One, however, must sit one out. Another was stuck in the Bahamas (tough life) and somewhere across the pond in England, where one well-wisher sends birthday love from afar. Either way, this was taken as an opportunity to lobby for appearances–one from the Sarasota contingent and another hopeful from Montreal.

Then came the… interesting takes. Someone called Sandoval “trod way way up,” which sparked a small debate in the replies. Another lays a bunch of philosophical drops: “You are here to be you, not to live someone else’s life.” Deep? Yes. Random? Absolutely. Yet, that’s what makes event announcements attractive-especially to all sorts.

If they can make it, that’s the pull. Sandoval behind the bar post-reality TV shenanigans? Robinson, pumping the looks and presumably the good vibes? An event like that needs so little selling just crazy fun: show up, grab a cocktail (maybe one Sandoval overpoured himself), and absorb the spectacle.

Bronny James plays coy about LeBron’s future with Lakers


The NBA world immediately began to speculate about LeBron James’ future with the Lakers after his representative made comments about his client monitoring how the team would handle the offseason in an attempt to improve the team, but Bronny James was not among the crowd.

Bronny has been preparing to play for the Lakers in the California Classic that starts Saturday in San Francisco. He talked after practice Wednesday about how he was unaware of the rumors and innuendo surrounding his famous teammate and father.

LeBron James opted into his $56.2-million contract on Sunday, leading his agent, Rich Paul, the chief executive of Klutch Sports, to tell ESPN that James was watching closely to see how the Lakers would improve the team.

“We understand the difficulty in winning now while preparing for the future,” Paul told ESPN. “We do want to evaluate what’s best for LeBron at this stage in his life and career. He wants to make every season he has left count, and the Lakers understand that, are supportive and want what’s best for him.”

In NBA circles, that was seen as a way to force Lakers president of basketball operations Rob Pelinka to make moves during the offseason to make the team better or that James might be willing to seek a trade.

Paul made it clear to ESPN that was not the case.

Bronny, in his second season in the NBA after being selected in the second of the draft at No. 55 in June 2024, said he’s not on social media as much anymore, but that he was told about the news.

“Actually, one of my friends called me talking about where, what I was gonna do. ‘cause they seen my dad, whatever. I didn’t see it,” Bronny said after practice Wednesday. “He called me. I was like, ‘Yeah, I have no idea what you’re talking about.’ …. Yeah, I don’t … I, yeah, I don’t really pay attention to that stuff so. Yeah, there’s a lot of stuff going around that I don’t pay attention to, yeah.”

The Lakers did make a move Wednesday, agreeing to a deal with Deandre Ayton, giving them a center they had to have.

Bronny was asked if his conversations with LeBron include the direction the franchise is headed and where his dad wants to play.

“No, we don’t really talk about it much,” Bronny said. “But I think when stuff like that does come up, he just tells me to not worry about it, not even pay attention to it. Just lock into what you have going on right now. And that’s what’s gonna get me better and to keep me focused. I think it’s good that he tells me to not pay attention to that stuff.”

Griffith Park Pool, dry since 2020, to be replaced

Griffith Park Pool, dry since 2020, to be replaced


The historic Griffith Park Pool, built in 1927 and once the largest aquatic facility in Los Angeles, has been dry since 2020. Now, as summer heats up, residents are learning that it won’t be filled again.

Instead, the city is laying plans for a $28-million project to demolish it and build two smaller new pools and a splash pad in its place while reconstructing the two-story pool house next door. City officials say they hope to begin the project in summer 2026 and complete it in January 2028.

But for now, the city’s Recreation and Parks Department website simply lists the pool as “closed until further notice.” A Bureau of Engineering spokesperson said the city has not picked a builder yet.

The Griffith Park Pool, closed in 2020, was still dry on July 1.

The new plan marks a sharp turn for a site that was once scheduled for reopening in June 2022. In the run-up to that date, the Eastsider news site first reported, city workers found that the pool had a cracked foundation, one too severe to repair.

Recreation and Parks Department spokeswoman Rose Watson said department Assistant General Manager Cathie Santo Domingo and a maintenance team discovered the cracks in the pool. “Every time they would fill it up, it wouldn’t retain the water,” Watson said.

During the closure, neighbors have complained and signed a petition, lamenting that working-class families in Los Feliz, Atwater, Silver Lake and East Hollywood have long depended on that public pool for summer relief.

“I always wondered what was happening with that. I’ve never seen water in it,” said Christine Perez of Los Feliz, who was at a playground near the pool Monday with her 22-month-old son, Miles. “I was literally thinking last week that it would be great if there was a splash pad down here.”

“Kids need a place to go and a place to learn how to swim,” said Marian Dodge, board secretary and past president of the Friends of Griffith Park. She said the group is “actually thrilled that they’re finally going to go ahead and make the necessary repairs. … We have been assured that it is fully funded.”

A city Bureau of Engineering report says the new project will include “demolition and reconstruction,” replacing the old pool with a new competition pool measuring 25 yards by 50 meters (up to 12.5 feet deep) and a “training pool” splash pad that is 25 yards by 25 meters (up to 5 feet deep), along with reconstruction and rehabilitation of the site’s two-story Spanish-style pool house and improvements to changing and shower areas and ADA accessibility.

The new pools are intended to handle year-round use, incorporating electric pool heaters, salt water and UV light water treatment.

Long known as the Municipal Plunge, the pool at Riverside Drive and Los Feliz Boulevard measures about 225 feet by 48 feet. It was the city’s largest aquatic facility until the arrival of Hansen Dam Recreation Area, built in 1940 in the Lake View Terrace area of the San Fernando Valley.

“You know the L.A. River runs right behind the pool?” said Dodge. “The water level behind the pool is so high, they were unable to concrete the river there.” As a result, when the pool was built, it “was described as a concrete boat floating on top of this sand and mud. It was kind of risky at the beginning, but they did it.”

At one point, the pool’s capacity was put at 562 people.

“They would have canoeing lessons and water parades,” Dodge said.

Now neighbored by tennis courts, a playground, a soccer field and Los Feliz Nursery School, the pool was open until late March of 2020, when the city shut multiple recreation facilities in the early days of the pandemic. It lies within City Council District 4, represented by Nithya Raman.

On May 21, the city Board of Public Works authorized hiring Perkins Eastman to do $2.4 million in architectural design and engineering work on the pools and bathhouse.

The idea of progress on the pool is comforting, Dodge said, given the idle state of the park’s pony rides and merry-go-round, both closed since 2022 for various reasons. The L.A. Zoo, also in Griffith Park, remains open but mired in a legal battle over money between the city and the Greater Los Angeles Zoo Assn.

In all, the city operates 57 pools (28 seasonal, 26 year-round and three camp pools) and eight splash pads. As of July 2, eight of the pools were closed.

The nearest city-run pools to Griffith Park are Echo Park, Hollywood and Glassell Park. Griffith Park also includes pools at Camp Hollywoodland and Griffith Park Boys Camp.

3 bargain FTSE 100 shares to consider buying in July

3 bargain FTSE 100 shares to consider buying in July


Image source: Getty Images

Having fully recovered from its tariff-related tumble, the FTSE 100 is now showing a solid-if-unspectacular gain of almost 6% for the year to date. But I think some stocks within the index have the potential to deliver far bigger profits in time.

Is the worst over?

To say that JD Sports Fashion (LSE: JD) is enduring a sticky patch is putting it mildly. We’re talking about a company that, thanks to slowing sales and profit warnings, experienced a near 35% decline in value from January to April.

As shockingly bad as recent form has been, I wonder if the tide might now be turning. The share price is up almost 10% in one month after better-than-anticipated numbers from key brand Nike.

Saying that we’ve already seen the bottom might be premature if inflation keeps rising. But assuming this doesn’t happen — and Nike continues to show that it’s getting its mojo back — JD Sports’ current price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of eight could prove to be a steal, in time.

I also suspect the hot weather over recent weeks — and people’s need for suitable clothing — bodes well for the next trading update, due mid-August.

Quality stock going cheap

Distributor Bunzl (LSE: BNZL) is a second top-tier titan with a stock that has tanked. The most significant drop came in April. Back then, management cut full-year guidance due to slower performance in North America.

Aside from a brief rally in early May, the share price hasn’t really budged since. Last month’s trading update didn’t contain any fresh nasties but nor did it seem to put investors at ease. Indeed, there could be fresh pain on the way if management’s hope for a better performance over the second half of the year proves misplaced.

Still, the stock can now be snapped up for slightly under 14 times forecast FY25 earnings. That’s lower than the company’s average P/E of 19 over the last five years.

This is also a company that’s vastly outperformed the index over the long term. Taking this and the essential (but rather dull) service it provides into account, I’d say Bunzl is worthy of closer inspection.

Long-term bet

Rounding of my list of big stocks to consider in July is Rio Tinto (LSE: RIO). While it hasn’t fared quite as badly as the other two market juggernauts mentioned here, the miner’s value has dipped by 9% in 2025.

Considering all the uncertainty over tariffs, this isn’t exactly surprising. But news that CEO Jakob Stausholm will be stepping down after falling out with the board over his reluctance to cut costs hasn’t helped matters.

Management shake-ups are, of course, inevitable. But the market probably won’t relax until a replacement is announced.

On a positive note, the 6.2% dividend yield is far more than that offered by most FTSE 100 firms. A P/E of 9 also looks very reasonable if the expected surge in demand for the stuff Rio digs up comes to pass as the world gradually moves to cleaner forms of energy.

Of course, a chunky dividend and lower-than-average valuation won’t be much compensation if the share price continues to slide. So, a healthy dollop of diversification remains a good idea.

CHP officer dies on duty after suddenly losing control of cruiser

CHP officer dies on duty after suddenly losing control of cruiser

CHP Officer Miguel Cano was on duty in the wee hours of Wednesday morning. He and his partner were en route from an arrest, taking a DUI suspect to the West L.A. CHP Office, which was a few blocks away.

But Cano didn’t make it.

Moments after telling his partner that he didn’t feel well, he lost control of his patrol cruiser and smashed into a tree in Culver City. He was killed. His partner and the suspect they were transporting were injured.

“We are devastated by the loss of Officer Cano, who gave his life while serving the people of California,” said California Highway Patrol Commissioner Sean Duryee in a statement. “His dedication, courage and commitment to public safety will never be forgotten. We stand with his family and our CHP family during this incredibly difficult time.”

It was not immediately clear what caused the crash and what medical emergency Cano may have experienced. Duryee said the officer did not have any known health issues.

Cano, a 34-year-old from Moreno Valley, had been driving south on Bristol Parkway, north of Green Valley Circle at 12:28 a.m. Wednesday, alongside his partner, who was not immediately identified. They had taken into a custody a person allegedly in possession of a firearm, possible cocaine and drug paraphernalia. They feared the suspect could be overdosing.

Cano administered Narcan as a precaution. Then the partners were headed back to the office when Cano said he didn’t feel well, Duryee said.

Their vehicle went off the roadway and struck a tree. Cano was rushed to UCLA Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead around 1:40 a.m.

On Wednesday morning, a solemn cadre of Cano’s fellow officers took part in a procession as the body was transported to the medical examiner’s office.

Cano’s partner sustained minor injuries and was treated at the scene, CHP said. The person in custody was transported to Cedars-Sinai in Marina Del Rey by the Culver City Fire Department. Duryee said their injuries were not severe.

The department’s accident investigation team is leading an investigation into the incident, CHP said. But investigators have already ruled out a possible exposure to drugs.

“We do not think this was an exposure to drugs,” Duryee said. “The other officer and the subject did not experience any signs or symptoms related to that.”

Cano, who graduated from the CHP Academy in November 2023, is survived by his wife and parents.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a statement that Cano’s “passing is a heartbreaking loss for the state and the California Highway Patrol.” The governor noted that this was the first line-of-duty death for the CHP since 2020, and that flags at the State Capitol would be flown at half-staff.

Get Woke, Go Broke: Jaguar Sales Plunge Amid Woke Rebrand | The Gateway Pundit

Get Woke, Go Broke: Jaguar Sales Plunge Amid Woke Rebrand | The Gateway Pundit


This week Jaguar released an ad that seemed to be more about wokeness than cars. (@Jaguar / X screen shot)

British luxury car manufacturer Jaguar is teetering on the edge of oblivion, grappling with a 97.5% plunge in global sales, the most catastrophic decline in its storied history.

The culprit? Their “Reimagine” strategy, a headlong dive into the woke abyss that’s alienated their core clientele.

While other firms quietly dial back their DEI excesses, Jaguar doubled down, unleashing a teaser ad showcasing “gender-fluid” models prancing around in outlandish, avant-garde garb. It’s a far cry from the sleek sophistication that once defined the brand, and the backlash has been ferocious.

The cars themselves are a pastel-colored fever dream, drenched in Miami-inspired hues like cotton-candy pink and seafoam green. Whether Jaguar will deign to offer the market’s preferred colors, black, white, silver, or grey, remains a mystery, but their silence on the matter speaks volumes.

These are the shades that dominate the high-end market, yet Jaguar seems content to thumb its nose at convention. The result is a lineup that looks more like a Pride parade float than a symbol of British automotive prestige.

Jaguar’s reputation as the pinnacle of elegance has been obliterated, replaced by a futuristic aesthetic that’s split their fanbase down the middle. The Gateway Pundit previously reported on their ghastly concept cars, which are now headed toward production, set to hit showrooms in late 2025 and summer 2026.

The flagship GT is slated to start at a wallet-shattering $200,000, with the rest of the lineup priced between $115,000 and $160,000. These are not cars for the discerning elite but for the Instagram-addicted nouveau riche.

The EVs have become a laughingstock on X, where users mercilessly roast their garish designs and inflated price tags. Yet, Jaguar is stubbornly clinging to its vision. The company has axed production of its flagship models, the XE, XF, E-Pace, I-Pace, and the beloved F-Type, leaving dealers with dwindling inventory and cratering sales. This scorched-earth pivot to an all-EV, ultra-luxury brand is proving to be a high-stakes gamble for the British automaker.

Jaguar’s executives are banking on capturing a younger, more diverse global audience, but analysts are sounding the alarm. The ultra-luxury market isn’t populated by Gen Z trendsetters; it’s the domain of seasoned affluence, buyers who value heritage over hashtags.

Jaguar’s tone-deaf rebrand ignores this reality, chasing a demographic that’s more likely to splurge on crypto than a six-figure sedan. On their investor-day call, the company triumphed a 110% spike in web traffic, as if clicks translate to sales. It’s a desperate spin, and the market isn’t buying it.

The old adage “Go Woke, Get Broke” hangs over Jaguar like a storm cloud. Their embrace of identity politics and garish aesthetics is transforming a once-revered brand into a cautionary tale. As they hemorrhage customers and credibility, one wonders if Jaguar’s leadership will wake up before the company careens off the cliff. For now, they’re flooring the accelerator, pedal to the metal, straight into irrelevance.

UFC Noche’s Jean Silva plans to beat up ‘on a guy that doesn’t know if he’s Mexican or Brazilian’


Bad blood brewing?

Rising Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight star Jean Silva headlines his first UFC event on Sept., 13, 2025, facing former Featherweight title challenger Diego Lopes in the main event of Noche UFC 3 inside Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, Texas.

Silva has been unstoppable in his UFC tenure, finishing every opponent, and he’s confident he’ll add Lopes to his resume with a devastating stoppage.

“I don’t think it’s going to happen,” Silva told MMAMania.com. “I’m going to break his face. I’m going to stop him.”

“Lord” also jabbed at Lopes for representing Mexico despite being Brazilian—a point Yair Rodriguez highlighted during UFC 314 fight week.

“It’s a good fight because I get to beat up on a guy that doesn’t know if he’s Mexican or Brazilian,” Silva said. “I’m going to win [this fight] and then I’m going to get the title and I will defend it as many times as God will like me to.

It’s unclear whether Lopes will take offense, as he did with Rodriguez’s similar remarks.

Nevertheless, Silva is riding a 13-fight win streak and is coming off a complete beatdown of Bryce Mitchell (watch highlights), and two months prior, knocked out Melsik Baghdasaryan at UFC Seattle.

My wife put bloating down to perimenopause – she died on Sunday | UK | News

My wife put bloating down to perimenopause – she died on Sunday | UK | News


A mother has shared that her impending death from bowel cancer allowed her to “live more fully”, with her final weeks encompassing “some of the happiest days” of her life. Laura Dawson, 44, suffered from bloating and fatigue for several months before being diagnosed with stage three cancer in March last year.

Initially, she attributed her symptoms to perimenopause, but one evening she was rushed to A&E due to excruciating stomach pain which meant she “could not move”. The mother-of-two underwent emergency surgery to remove a blockage in her bowel and, while the operation was successful, a biopsy confirmed her cancer diagnosis.

Laura endured six months of chemotherapy and initially, the scans were “promising”, according to her husband Ben, 49.

He revealed: “We got one clear scan in August and it all seemed promising. But then in September we got the news that it was back and it had spread. That was absolutely gut-wrenching.”

At first, Laura attempted other forms of chemotherapy, but two months ago she chose to cease treatment. The therapy was only exacerbating her illness and she instead wished to spend her remaining time with her family and friends.

Laura received support from St Christopher’s Hospice in Sydenham, south-east London, enabling her to stay at home for as long as possible, surrounded by her loved ones in a “comfortable and dignified way”. After two weeks, she transitioned to in-hospice care and passed away peacefully at St Christopher’s Hospice on Sunday, June 29, with Ben by her side.

Ben described her passing as “peaceful” and expressed gratitude for the care she received. He said: “The care Laura received at home from the carers from St Christopher’s allowed her to have her final two weeks at home in a comfortable and dignified way.

“Then, during the nearly three weeks she stayed at the hospice, she was so well looked after – and everyone there was so compassionate and so caring – that it made Laura’s last few days so good for her. We’re eternally grateful that such a positive experience could come from such a negative situation.”

Laura had previously spoken about her acceptance of her mortality, revealing that her final days were among her “happiest”. She said: “Some of the happiest days of my life have been in the last few weeks. As a society, we shy away from the process of dying.

“By doing that, we reinforce negative ideas around death. People think death is always going to be painful and traumatic, but it doesn’t have to be.

“Deep down we all know we are going to die. Cancer has forced me to acknowledge it. Since then I’ve lived more fully than I’ve ever done and that has been a gift.”

Ben spoke poignantly about the gratitude he and Laura felt for the time they had, despite longing for more. He shared: “Laura could have died on that operating table back in March. Life can be cut short unexpectedly and suddenly.

“But knowing Laura was going to die meant everyone had the opportunity to say what they wanted to say to her. When it comes to the funeral, I won’t have to stand up there and say all those things I wished I had said to her.

“Because I told her and so did the kids. Obviously, I’d prefer to keep her – and have her for the rest of my life.

“But she died knowing she is loved and that we will miss her endlessly. That is a blessing.”

Throughout their harrowing experience, Ben has been openly communicating with their sons Jacob, 17, and Theo, 15, about Laura’s condition.

Ben described their approach: “We’ve spoken very openly about it all the way through. We’ve always told them what the possible outcomes are – because we want to prepare them for what might happen and we want them to be able to trust what we’re saying. That’s definitely helped us throughout.”

He also lauded the exceptional care given by both the NHS and St Christopher’s Hospice.

“From the moment she was admitted into Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospital, all the care Laura received was incredible,” he expressed. “We really are so thankful.”

In his final remarks, Ben shared that it was Laura’s wish to publicise her ordeal to help others face the realities of mortality.

He remarked: “The way she’s approached this has been incredible. I don’t think there’s been a day in this process where Laura truly let this get to her. This is unfair. She’s had her life cut short by 40 or 50 years. But she was seeing the beauty in the small things – taking joy in what she could do.

“They say people are glass half empty or glass half full. Laura was always happy enough just to have a glass. She wanted to share that with people.”

In a deeply touching gesture, Laura devoted her remaining moments to creating precious memories for her family, writing heartfelt letters and organising keepsakes, while also gifting her sons meaningful watches.

“She bought me one when we got engaged and now the boys have one too,” Ben shared. “That way, on special occasions, like their weddings, they can look at it and know she’s with them and thought about that day.”

Reflecting on his life with Laura, Ben recounted: “We met 24 years ago. They talk about love at first sight – and it was that.

“She’s been my constant companion ever since. Laura was generous to a fault – and the kind of person who is friends with someone after a minute of chatting to them. She was just a really, really nice person.”
