The Garnet Fire surged by 15,000 acres this weekend, now burning over 49,000 acres in Fresno County. Fueled by dry winds and steep terrain, the blaze prompted new evacuations and threatened a grove of giant sequoias. Firefighters are reinforcing containment lines as weather remains a critical factor.

GARNET FIRE: Explodes by 15,000 Acres Over Weekend

Uber has officially expanded its women-only matching feature across the United States, allowing both women riders and drivers to pair exclusively with other women for added comfort and safety. The rollout builds on a successful pilot and offers options such as requesting a woman driver, setting women‑only preferences, and even enabling teens to do the same. Despite facing a California class‑action lawsuit alleging discrimination against men, Uber says the feature answers longstanding safety concerns raised by women using the platform.

Nicole Zieba sits in for John Broeske.

RIDING SAFER? Uber’s Women-Only Option Goes Nationwide

In her first full year leading the Fresno Police Department, Chief Mindy Casto delivered unprecedented results—bringing the city’s homicide count down to just 22 in 2025, the lowest in over 50 years. Through targeted gang enforcement, rapid investigations, and expanded use of technology like ShotSpotter and license-plate readers, Fresno achieved a 70% drop in murders since 2020 while maintaining a 100% clearance rate. Her success marks a transformative shift in public safety and community trust.

A SAFER FRESNO: Chief Casto’s Remarkable First-Year Turnaround

 

Lavish Pentagon purchases—ranging from $6.9 million in lobster tail and $2 million in Alaskan king crab to a $98,329 Steinway grand piano and a $21,750 handmade Japanese flute—have ignited public outrage. These extravagant “use‑it‑or‑lose‑it” end‑of‑year splurges reached a record $93.4 billion in September 2025 alone, underscoring systemic budget‑burning practices. Similar last‑minute spending habits plague other government departments as well, revealing a broader culture of fiscal waste that watchdog groups say urgently needs reform.
