“Setting out these minimum requirements is really a road map for what is necessary,” said Ian Kysel, staff attorney with the ACLU of Southern California.

Even with the agreement, Laguna Beach officials expressed exasperation over the lawsuit. The Alternative Sleeping Location is run by the nonprofit Friendship Shelter under a contract with the city.
“For a city of our size, Laguna Beach has made unparalleled efforts to help the homeless population in the area,” Mayor Kelly Boyd said when contacted Wednesday. “Unfortunately, this is a regional crisis and not one we alone can solve.
Beyond what the settlement mandates for Laguna Beach, the ACLU sees wider implications in Orange County, where elected officials have been scrambling the past few months under the watchful eye of another federal court judge who is overseeing a civil rights proceeding that has grown to involve the county and all 34 citi...
Eve Garrow, an ACLU policy analyst who has been focusing on homelessness in Orange County for several years, said the settlement sends a message to other municipalities that they must be accountable to those she sees as the most vulnerable of citizens — unsheltered homeless people who suffer from mental illness and phy...
Too often, she added, shelters resort to kicking out people who might be undergoing mental health episodes rather than trying to de-escalate the situation and be more flexible with their rules in devising ways to calm an individual.
“In Orange County, people with disabilities who are chronically homeless are disproportionately represented among those living on the street,” Garrow said, adding that they are the least likely to escape homelessness without help even though they have the greatest needs.
Like other advocates, Garrow has long criticized county government for neglecting to undertake a “housing first” approach for homeless individuals with disabling conditions, as stated in the county’s 10-year Plan to End Homelessness, adopted in 2012. What the city of Laguna Beach must now do under the settlement could ...
Trial dates in the Laguna Beach lawsuit had been set before U.S. District Judge Andrew Guilford in Santa Ana but were postponed as the two parties continued settlement talks.
Both the city and the plaintiffs won partial victories in rulings the judge made last year on some issues in the lawsuit.
Guilford agreed with the ACLU that the shuttle van used to transport homeless people between downtown Laguna Beach and the shelter violated federal standards because it had no ramps or a wheelchair lift. But the judge also found that there was not enough evidence to support the claim that the city’s police had been ove...
“Today, the issues alleged in the initial lawsuit have all but vanished,” a news release from the city manager’s office stated, including a demand that the city build and operate permanent supportive housing for disabled homeless people at its own expense.
“We are happy to be moving past this,” said Laguna Beach City Manager John Pietig, who characterized the lawsuit as “grossly misguided” and a drain on city resources and staff time.
His “slow’ brother Michal (Nick Kelly) has been apprehended, and confesses to the crimes. When Katurian was a young boy, he heard his parents abuse his brother, and this went on for years until he put an end to it. Ever since, Katurian has felt responsible for the care of his vulnerable, scarred brother. Poor, pitiful ...
Klefisch is absorbing as the conflicted writer, tormented by what transpired in childhood. But it is Kelly’s extraordinary performance as the dimwitted Michal that is haunting. He is heartbreaking as a crumpled shell of a guy, and he carefully modulated his portrayal to refrain from being a caricature.
The good cop-bad cop relationship is effective between White and Garey, and they play off each other well. Eventually, the flaws emerge in all the characters, but these four actors never lose their humanity. The intense emotions are conveyed well, and will stay with the audience long after the curtain call.
Violence is a given in McDonagh’s storytelling, and “The Pillowman” is grim and brutal, but the vivid imagery is what is seared into your imagination.
Ryan Foizey’s fledgling troupe is committed to presenting thought-provoking work, and McDonagh’s prize-winning but rarely produced 2003 play fits their mission. But the demands of such a show are daunting — and it really speaks to Foizey’s vision that he has transformed some of the trickier elements, such as visualizin...
Smartly directed, Foizey features sharp illustrations by Aaron Allen, a local artist with credits including Marvel and DC Comics, and painting by Michelle Sauer, skillfully punctuated by original music by Luke Viertel.
The austere set design by Rob Lippert of O’Fallon evokes the harsh location, whle James Slover’s lighting design further adds to the desolation.
Theatre Lab’s work is both muscular and provocative, but stands out as a well-defined production with searing, unforgettable performances.

ZURICH, Nov 27 (Reuters) - Swiss drugmaker Roche is buying U.S.-based Jecure Therapeutics, joining Pfizer, Gilead Sciences and Novartis in pursuit of new drugs to treat fatty liver disease.
Roche did not say how much it was paying for Jecure, which gives it a preclinical portfolio of so-called NLRP3 inhibitors being developed for fighting inflammatory diseases like non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis as well as gout, inflammatory bowel disease and cardiovascular diseases.
Novartis and Pfizer last month teamed up to develop treatments for NASH, which many drug companies believe will become a hugely lucrative market, as it is tied to the obesity and diabetes epidemics. Unchecked, NASH can lead to advanced cirrhosis and liver failure.
"We're excited to combine Jecure's portfolio with our discovery and development capabilities, as well as our expertise in NLRP3 biology, to potentially help people with inflammatory diseases," James Sabry, Roche's head of partnering, said in a statement on Tuesday.

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. — A stretch of Interstate 24 in Montgomery County will close once more this weekend for bridge demolition.
Eastbound traffic will be diverted from 8 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday to the on- and off-ramps at Exit 8, according to a news release.
The construction will likely create lengthy delays on I-24, the release stated. Motorists were asked to plan ahead and use alternate routes if possible.
The bridge over the interstate, Rossview Road, will be closed for the demolition and to allow for flow of traffic from the interstate.
The closure is necessary so crews can demolish the old overpass and remove debris from the roadway. Bridge demolition is scheduled to take place between 10 p.m. and midnight.
The work is part of a $12.8 million project to widen Rossview Road from west of I-24 to east of International Boulevard, according to the release.
The project is expected to be completed in May.

The International Space Station is preparing to perform an evasion maneuver to avoid a 10 cm fragment of a Russian rocket which will pass close to it on Thursday. The ISS will have to move some five kilometers higher to escape the threat.
“Observations show that a fragment of the Tsyklon-3 carrier rocket, which delivered the satellites Interkosmos-26 and Magion-3 into orbit back in 1991, will be passing the station on Tuesday night at a threateningly short distance,” the Russian mission control center said.
The danger was detected in plenty of time and the trajectory of the debris was monitored to determine the risk of a collision. The latest calculations show that if an evasion is not made, the junk would pass within 350 meters of the station, which is deemed to be dangerously close.
Mission control says the engines of the Russian module Zarya will be ignited for 169 seconds on Thursday evening, which will increase the station’s speed by 2.7 meters per second and raise its altitude by 4.7 kilometers.
“After the correction the fragment will pass the station at the distance of some nine kilometers and will not pose a threat to the ISS and its crew,” the source assured, adding that this will make the regular orbit correction scheduled for October 6 unnecessary.
The space station is currently manned by three members of Expedition 29: NASA astronaut Mike Fossum, Japanese Satoshi Furukawa and Russian Sergey Volkov. Three more people are to join them in December.
Space junk is an increasing threat to space exploration and will need to be tackled sooner or later. Some calculations suggest that the situation is already critical and could swiftly deteriorate. Cleaning the orbit of rocket and satellite debris is a complex task, which will require technical know-how and collaboratio...

Stevie Parle's grilled summer vegetables with ricotta and marjoram, a delicious dish to cook and eat alfresco.
•Get a barbecue or griddle pan really hot. When it starts smoking, place the peppers on top and grill on all sides until blackened and softened. Transfer to a large bowl, cover with cling film and leave to sweat for 15 minutes.
•Remove the cling film and allow the peppers to cool for a moment. Peel the skin and discard the stem and seeds. Return to the bowl, season well and add a good splash of red wine vinegar and olive oil. Toss well and leave to sit while you prepare the other vegetables.
•Place the rest of the vegetables on the grill or barbecue and take off when char marks appear and they are cooked through. The aubergine should take a bit longer than the courgettes and onions. Transfer to a bowl. When everything is cooked, season well and drizzle with oil.
•To serve, combine the peppers with the rest of the vegetables and spread out prettily on a platter. Spoon small amounts of ricotta over the vegetables and scatter generously with marjoram. Add a final quick drizzle of vinegar and oil before serving.

An Atlanta dad held a naked man at gunpoint at a city park, for fear that the man might have been exposing himself to – or even harming – children.
As The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports, Tae Lovelace was at Trailblazer Park in Newton County, in Covington, in suburban Atlanta, last Sunday, feeding the homeless with his church. He was accompanied by his mother, his grandmother, and his two children. Other children were at the park as well.
Unfortunately, the day was spoiled when a naked man was spotted hanging around the park. Lovelace says the man “approached” him and his family. Lovelace was, at first, almost unnecessarily polite.
Lovelace says the man did leave – at least, for a while. At about 5:30 p.m., the man came back. This time, Lovelace says, the man approached him and his family.
This time, says Lovelace, he had no choice but to grab his gun. Meanwhile, he recorded the incident on the phone so he could have evidence to give the cops when they showed up.
When the police did turn up, their first order of business was not the naked man, but the man holding a gun. Though Lovelace wasn’t accused of any crimes, he was holding a gun around police, and they’d prefer not to work in those situations. They ordered Lovelace to put his weapon down – and while they were focused on ...
He didn’t get far, however: police caught up to him and took him into custody.
The naked man has been identified as 21-year-old Josten Meeler. He’s been charged with child molestation, public indecency, and being under the influence of alcohol or drugs. It’s not clear, as of this writing, whether or not Meeler has a prior criminal record.
As for Lovelace, he credits Georgia’s gun laws with helping prevent this incident from being something much worse.
Merck & Co reported better-than-expected quarterly profit and revenue, helped by growing demand for its new cancer treatment, Keytruda.
The company's net income soared to $1.21 billion, or 43 cents per share, in the second quarter, from $688 million, or 24 cents per share, a year earlier.
Excluding items, the company earned 93 cents per share, ahead of the average analyst estimate of 91 cents, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
The company's revenue rose 1 percent to $9.84 billion, above analysts' average estimate of $9.78 billion.
Keytruda sales came in at $314 million, ahead of the $295 million analysts at Berenberg had estimated.
Merck is counting on Keytruda, a recently approved treatment for melanoma and lung cancer, to boost its earnings for years to come. The medicine, which takes the brakes off the immune system, is competing with Bristol-Myers Squibb Co's similar Opdivo treatment.
Merck's shares were up 1.7 percent at $59.43 in premarket trading.
Echo Global Logistics reported another record quarter for revenue and boosted its guidance for the year as demand for the company’s technology and transportation management services remains robust.
Echo Global Logistics has appointed CEO Douglas Waggoner to be the chairman.
Echo Global Logistics Inc. said its profit fell in the fourth quarter due to weak demand in November that only partially recovered in December.
Echo Global Logistics said its second-quarter profit grew to $1.9 million, or 9 cents per share, compared with $692,000, or 3 cents, a year ago.
