Heavier rain to follow latest spritzing in O.C.

2010-02-25T09:43:00.000-08:00

The first of two Pacific low pressure systems moved through Orange County yesterday and early today, barely spritzing the landscape, and not even doing that in many areas. The National Weather Service had said the county would be lucky to get one-tenth of an inch of rain. But forecasters also say the second system will be far stronger when it gets here late Friday night.

“Preliminary rainfall totals should be about half to one inch in the coastal and valley areas, near two inches on the coastal mountain slopes and less than half an inch in the deserts,” says a weather service advisory. “Runoff will develop quickly and there could be local flooding of poorly drained low lying areas and small streams.

Fake job-reference sites spring up

2010-02-21T14:09:00.000-08:00

Fake job reference services are appearing, mostly online, to help the 8.4 million Americans who have lost their jobs in this recession.

The longer people are out of work, the more they might look to such sites to help them find a job. And 35% of California’s unemployed have been out of work for six months or more.

These job-reference sites offer to help fill gaps in work history, provide references from out-of-business former employers, give positive references when the job seeker believes the real former boss would be negative.

They provide real phone numbers with real people who answer the phone and give job verification information to employers who are checking references.

Alibi HQ, a job reference site that got a lot of attention in 2009, seems to be gone.

2010-02-14T09:45:00.001-08:00

IRVINE – A Garden Grove man died early today after slamming a speeding stolen car into a cluster of trees as he was trying to evade police, officials said.

The crash at the intersection of Alton Parkway and East Yale Loop occurred at 1:31 a.m.

At 1:30 a.m., an Irvine police officer saw a four-door Nissan Altima approaching the intersection of Alton Parkway and Harvard Avenue. The vehicle was traveling more than 80 miles per hour and didn't stop for the red traffic light at the intersection, Lt. Henry Boggs said.

The officer tried to stop the car but lit sped eastbound on Alton Parkway through Culver Drive.

About 30 seconds later, another officer sitting at the intersection of Alton Parkway and East Yale Loop saw the car speed by, Boggs said. The vehicle went out of control, struck the curb and smashed into trees on the intersection's southeast corner, he said.
