By Bill Galluccio
Apr 12, 2021
A water official from Las Vegas is urging state legislators to pass a law that would ban ornamental grass that nobody walks on. This includes grassy areas in office parks and housing communities and the grass that fills roadway medians.
Southern Nevada Water Authority public service director
Andy Belanger wants to see that grass removed by December 2026.
"SNWA's Andy Belanger: We're asking the legislature to consider legislation to require the removal of unused turf throughout the LV Valley by Dec. 2026. What's unused turf? It's grass that never gets stepped on except when it's mowed," the SNWA tweeted.

Apr 12, 2021
Regeneron announced that the results of a Phase 3 clinical trial show that its antibody cocktail helps prevent symptomatic COVID-19 infections. The company said that the drug, named REGEN-COV, reduced the risk of symptomatic infections by 81%.
The drug cocktail was granted an emergency use authorization by the Food and Drug Administration to treat high-risk, non-hospitalized patients with mild to moderate symptoms of COVID-19. That treatment was only approved to be given intravenously.

Investigators Determine Cause Of Tiger Woods Crash But Refuse To Reveal It | Talk Radio 105.9

Mar 31, 2021
Detectives with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office have wrapped up their investigation into the single-car accident involving
Tiger Woods. While investigators have determined what caused the accident, they refused to provide any details citing privacy concerns.
"We have reached out to Tiger Woods and his personnel," Los Angeles Sheriff
Alex Villanueva said. "There's some privacy issues on releasing information on the investigation, so we're going to ask them if they waive the privacy, and then we will be able to do a full release on all the information regarding the accident."
Woods was seriously injured after he lost control of the Genesis SUV he was driving on the morning of February 23. The car struck a raised median and spun out control across two lanes of on-coming traffic before hitting a tree and rolling over in a ditch on the side of the road.

Four people, including a child, were killed after a gunman opened fire at an office complex in Orange, California. A fifth woman was injured in the shooting and was taken to the hospital.
When authorities responded to the scene, they engaged with the gunman, and he was shot and had to be taken to the hospital, where he remains in critical condition. It is unclear if he was shot by police officers or if the gunshot wound was self-inflicted.
Authorities have not identified the suspected gunman or the victims. They have not released any details about a motive or what may have led to the shooting. A firearm has been recovered, but officials did not say what type of gun was used in the shooting.

Honda Recalls Over 628,000 Vehicles, Including Top Selling CR-V | Talk Radio 105.9
By Bill Galluccio
Mar 31, 2021
Honda announced a recall of more than 628,00 vehicles due to a potentially faulty fuel pump. The carmaker said the rotating part of the pump, known as an impeller, could fail, causing the engine to stall.
"Affected vehicles may be equipped with a fuel pump module manufactured with low-density impellers. If the surface of a lower density impeller is exposed to production solvent drying for longer periods of time, higher levels of surface cracking may occur. These cracks may lead to excessive fuel absorption, resulting in impeller deformation,"
There have been no reports of crashes or injuries due to the issue.
