Spring in Southern California is off to a wet and gloomy start, creating multiple sources for mosquitoes as soon as the sun starts shinning . This means finding and removing mosquito sources and containers with water should be at the top of your spring cleaning list. Mosquitoes can be a real threat to your community because they can transmit debilitating and sometimes fatal diseases like West Nile virus to humans. Keep mosquitoes out of your home and prevent mosquito bites with these tips.
Keep mosquitoes from buzzing into spring by eliminating sources and standing water starting now. Download the Mosquito Source Checklist and identify common sources in your home. Tip and toss stagnant water weekly.
Mosquito Watch is a neighborhood program designed to protect our communities from mosquitoes and mosquito-borne diseases. With guidance from mosquito experts and your leadership, you can inspire your neighbors to act, and reduce mosquito breeding and disease transmission in your neighborhood.

One of the last places a motorist would want to be stuck is on active railroad tracks. Trains are long and heavy and can need a mile or more to come to a complete stop, endangering anything in their path. Two videos show the destructive force a train carries when they capture the moment one collides with a semi-truck that's hauling a wheel loader.
The train hit with such force that it nearly tossed the Caterpillar tractor onto the road parallel to the tracks. The loader crashed into the railroad crossing arm controls, showering the area with dirt and debris. The collision occurred on Wednesday, October 4, around noon in Redding, California.
A 25-year-old truck driver from Washington attempted to navigate the crossing at SR-273 and Breslauer Way when his low-clearance trailer got stuck on the tracks. The driver tried to free it but didn't have enough time. According to the Redding Police Department's news release posted to Facebook, the truck had only been stuck on the crossing for a short time, and no one had called Union Pacific about the blockage.
With the train unable to slow or stop in time, it collided with the semi. The police said the accident caused significant damage to the crossing arms and electrical system, forcing the crossing's closure. Thankfully, no one was injured on the ground or the train, and the police's news release made no note of the truck driver receiving any citation for the accident.
According to the US Federal Railroad Administration, highway-rail incidents, collisions between vehicles/pedestrians and trains, steadily climbed until 2019. The number would fall to under 2,000 crashes in 2020 during the pandemic. They fell further in 2021, halving to 812, the last year of available data. Traffic fatalities are falling in general.
This would be the seventh accident at the crossing since 1976, according to FRA data. The last occurred in 2019 when a train struck a 68-year-old pedestrian. The last vehicle-train collision occurred in 1999.
Trying to beat a train or weave through the gates is never wise. If your car does get stuck in the tracks, immediately get out of the vehicle and back away. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration recommends walking toward the oncoming train and away from the tracks at a 45-degree angle. Once safely away, call the railroad's emergency number that's near the crossing and contact police.

Sorry for the radio silence, Toontown! Some prankster thought it would be funny to buy up Clarabelle's entire stock of radios to send to their friend's mailbox. Even more importantly, all of us here on the Toontown Team are getting ready for the most exciting event of the entire year: ToonFest at ReplayFX 2018!
The Annual Toontown Pie Toss started as a community-created event during ToonFest at OMG!Con 2015, the very first real-world ToonFest since 2007, which took place in Owensboro, Kentucky. Two players brought three pies to throw at Joey, whom you may better know as Sir Max!
Since then, our pie toss has only grown. The 2016 attendees brought over 20 pies to be thrown at Joey, and 2017 brought our biggest pie toss EVER seen in the video above! It was so big, in fact, that we had to bring in two additional "Toon Enough" team members, Jenny (Lemondrop) and Jeremy (Fat McStink) to help Joey out.
Now, fellow Toons, it's time to make history again. From July 26-29 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, ToonFest is coming back to SPLAT our records with more pies than ever before. The best part is: YOU can become a part of it. Joey is begging you not to, which means it must be a good idea!
We have tons of Toontastic activities planned for every day of the event with many surprises in store, especially for those looking for Toontown's next big announcement.
The Annual Toontown Pie Toss will take place on Sunday, July 29th at 12:00 PM EST. We'll bring the pies if you bring a few arms to throw them. (That means YOU!)
We hope to see you there! In the meantime, you can catch up on the perfect pie throws of the past and see other ToonFest footage on our YouTube channel. Stay TOONed for more information about ToonFest at ReplayFX 2018, and don't forget to book your tickets before it's too late!
TRAVIS LARCHUK: I do. GUY RAZ, host: Travis Larchuk, one of our producers here on the program, you have the answer. LARCHUK: Yes. And I think that this could be one of the biggest innovations in sports technology of the decade, by which I mean from 2001 to 2010. RAZ: You mean from 2000 to 2009. LARCHUK: No, the real decade. RAZ: Okay. So describe this for people who did not see the Liberty Bowl. LARCHUK: Right. So every football game begins with a coin toss, and whichever team wins it gets to decide who kicks off first. But watching the coin toss is boring. Mr. DAN LaRUE (Inventor): We're seeing six little people, very far away, doing something in the center of the field, and we can hear the ref talking about it, but we cannot see it. LARCHUK: All right, so that's Dan LaRue. He's an inventor, and he saw this problem, and he came up with a solution. RAZ: A solution. LARCHUK: Yeah. So, have you ever played the Nintendo Wii, you swing a plastic controller around and you're pretending to play tennis on TV. RAZ: No. LARCHUK: But you know about it. RAZ: Yeah. LARCHUK: So it works kind of like that, except you take the technology that makes the Wii controller work and you put it into the referees coin. Mr. LaRUE: When the ref tosses the coin, there is data coming from that coin to a computer. The computer calculates the height and the spin rate of the coin and projects that on the display using computer graphics. RAZ: Okay. I'm not sure I got all that. LARCHUK: Well, I'll demonstrate. Let me empty out my change purse. RAZ: You carry a change purse? LARCHUK: Don't judge me, Guy. You see this quarter that I'm holding up right now? RAZ: Yup. LARCHUK: All right. Now, say we're on the field at the Liberty Bowl and I'm the ref. Now, as I move this quarter around, there's a 3D virtual coin up there on the JumboTron that's moving in the exact same way that my coin is. RAZ: So as your coin is spinning through the air, I can watch a computer version in real time flipping on the JumboTron. LARCHUK: Exactly. And you can even see which side the coin lands on before the ref does. RAZ: This is ridiculous. Why would anybody ever invent this? LARCHUK: Well, it's the age-old story, Guy. If you can get everyone in the stadium's eyes glued up there on the JumboTron during the coin toss, you could put an ad up there and make some money. RAZ: Of course. That's one of our producers, Travis Larchuk. Travis, thanks. LARCHUK: No problem, Guy. (Soundbite of music)
