LOS ANGELES (AP) — The pork industry is challenging the constitutionality of a voter-approved California measure that will prohibit the sale of meat products from hogs born to sows confined in spaces that don’t meet new minimum size requirements.A lawsuit filed late Thursday in San Diego federal court by the National Pork Producers Council and the American Farm Bureau Federation targets Proposition 12, which voters overwhelmingly passed a year ago and goes into effect in 2022.“Proposition 12 has thrown a giant wrench into the workings of the interstate market in pork,” the filing states.The measure bans the sale in California of pork and veal from farm animals raised in conditions that don’t meet its standards. It also requires that all eggs sold in the state come from cage-free hens.The rules will apply to pork products coming to California from farmers nationwide, not just from in-state farms. The industry lawsuit contends that extraterritorial reach intrudes on authority given to Congress.”Plaintiffs seek a declaration that Proposition 12’s requirements with regard to breeding pigs violate the Commerce Clause and principles of interstate federalism embodied in the U.S. Constitution, and an injunction against the enforcement of Proposition 12’s requirements concerning pork,” the lawsuit states.The ballot measure, dubbed the Prevention of Cruelty to Farm Animals Act, was sponsored and financed by the Humane Society of the United States.The lawsuit was termed “frivolous” in a statement from Jonathan Lovvorn, the Humane Society’s senior vice president for animal protection litigation.“It’s an industry out-of-step with the preponderance of consumers who find animal abuse unacceptable, yet is still trying to hold on to archaic practices — like those banned by Prop 12 — that inflict an immense amount of pain and suffering on animals,” he said.Proposition 12′s requirements include giving breeding pigs at least 24 square feet (2.2 square meters) of floor space in group pens.It also bars the use of individual stalls that do not meet “stand-up, turn-around” requirements, except during brief periods prior to farrowing and during weaning.The lawsuit states that the measure’s requirements “are inconsistent with industry practices and standards, generations of producer experience, scientific research, and the standards set by other states.”It also imposes “enormous costs” on pork producers that will ultimately increase costs for consumers, it says.Before the election, the nonpartisan state Legislative Analyst’s Office said Proposition 12 would likely result in an increase in prices for eggs, pork and veal partly because farmers would have to remodel or build new housing for animals.It could also cost the state as much as million a year to enforce and millions of dollars more a year in lost tax revenues from farm businesses that choose to stop or reduce production because of higher costs, the office said.According to 2017 U.S. Department of Agriculture data cited in the lawsuit, nearly 65,000 farms nationwide sold hogs that year with a market value of more than billion. Pigs are raised nationwide, but production is concentrated in the Midwest and North Carolina.California’s pork consumption accounts for about 13 percent of the national market. But the state has only about 1,500 commercial breeding sows and needs the offspring of about 673,000 sows to satisfy its residents’ annual demand for pork meat, the lawsuit states. 3487

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Eric Lauer was on the Dodger Stadium mound when he heard the crowd suddenly get loud and wondered why."I thought there was like a streaker at first and then I looked around, there was nobody," he said. "I thought there was a fight in the stands."Lauer kept pitching, throwing two strikes in the midst of a strong earthquake that rattled the stadium during San Diego's 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night."Not many people can say they threw a strike during an earthquake," Lauer said. "My ball, my pitch, started an earthquake."Early magnitude estimates from the U.S. Geological Survey wavered between 6.9 and 7.1.Lauer didn't realize it until he returned to the dugout and his teammates asked if he felt it."I was locked in no matter what," he said. "When you really focus in there's not a lot that can distract you."All-Star lefty Clayton Kershaw pitched seven sharp innings for the Dodgers, but the loss snapped their nine-game home winning streak.Kershaw was in the tunnel between the dugout and clubhouse during the quake and said he didn't feel it."We really couldn't feel it as much on the field as the people in the upper deck, so there was a lot of commotion going on," said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, who was quickly informed of the cause. "Dodger Stadium held up."Lauer was facing Enriquè Hernàndez when the quake struck in the fourth. Lauer's first three pitches of the at-bat — including two strikes — came during the shaking that unnerved some fans in the crowd of 49,790 enough to move from their seats in the upper reserve level and caused the press box to lurch for several seconds.The TV broadcast was marred by the camera bouncing up and down.Hearing the crowd stirring, Hernàndez stepped out of the batter's box after Lauer's third pitch. He eventually flied out to left field to end the inning."He didn't feel it, either, so he was kind of wondering what all the ruckus was about," Roberts said. "I was hoping that he would hit the ball out of the ballpark, add to the commotion."Padres manager Andy Green said he felt the quake and noticed one of the foul poles swaying."I said to (coach) Rod (Barajas) that I'd love for Kikè Hernàndez to hit a ball right down the line where the foul pole sways in and the ball swings just foul based on that," he said.Nothing was said by the public address announcer regarding the quake."People were freaking out," said Daniel Earle, a 52-year-old fan sitting with his wife in the reserve level. "I'm surprised my arm is still here. She was squeezing into it so hard."Jamie Taralunga of Ann Arbor, Michigan, landed in Los Angeles on Thursday, just after a 6.4-magnitude quake. The latest one unnerved her."It was pretty crazy," she said. "I just heard a bunch of screaming all of a sudden and everyone's shaking back and forth. Swaying almost like a boat."Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen was relaxing on a couch in the clubhouse when the shaking began."I thought I was tripping for a second," he said. "It's not fun. You get worried. There's 50,000 people in the stands, the stadium is shaking, and there's nowhere to go."Dodgers outfielder Alex Verdugo noticed third base coach Dino Ebel moving his arm in a wave-like motion."I kind of felt the railing and I was like, we are moving a little bit," the rookie said. "We could be scared but I can't tell the earth to stop moving."Verdugo said teammate Chris Taylor was "all fired up" and came running out from the batting cage after seeing the jarring motion on the TV broadcast.Hunter Renfroe matched a career high with his 26th homer, connecting off Yimi Garcia (1-3) with two outs in the eighth to snap a 2-all tie.Craig Stammen (6-4) got the victory in relief. Kirby Yates earned his 28th save.The Dodgers tied it at 2 in the sixth. Newly named All-Star Max Muncy grounded into a fielder's choice to first base that scored Verdugo, who had a leadoff double and went to third on Lauer's wild pitch.Taylor's RBI single in the third provided the Dodgers' first run.The Padres took a 2-0 lead in the third.Eric Hosmer's RBI double to deep center scored Lauer, who reached on catcher's interference by Austin Barnes. Manny Machado, the former Dodger who has been booed heavily in the first two games of the series, followed with a fielder's choice groundout to third that scored Fernando Tatis Jr., who singled.Lauer allowed two runs — one earned — and four hits in six innings. He struck out six and walked one.Kershaw gave up two runs — one earned — and five hits. He struck out nine and walked one. 4553

LOS ANGELES (CNS) - A large ``Trump'' sign erected overnight on a hillside near the San Diego (405) Freeway in the Sepulveda Pass was taken down by authorities today.The sign -- consisting of white capital letters similar to the `Hollywood'' sign -- was taken down by Caltrans workers by about 9 a.m.It was not known who put the sign in place. Neither the Los Angeles Police Department nor the California Highway Patrol had any information about the sign when reached by City News Service. Freeway traffic was not affected. Lauren Wonder, chief public information officer for Caltrans, told the Los Angeles Times that the sign was on private property.For that reason, Wonder said, Caltrans workers ``laid it down so it wasn't a visual distraction'' but did not completely remove the sign, which was noticed at about 7 a.m.``This was a life and safety issue because there were concerns about distracted driving,'' Wonder said. 933

LOS ANGELES (AP) — A former business manager of Stan Lee was arrested Saturday on elder abuse charges involving the late comic book legend.Keya Morgan was taken into custody in Arizona on an outstanding arrest warrant after being charged by Los Angeles County prosecutors earlier this month.Morgan faces felony charges including theft, embezzlement, forgery or fraud against an elder adult, and false imprisonment of an elder adult. A misdemeanor count also alleges elder abuse.Authorities say Morgan sought to capitalize on the Marvel Comic mastermind's wealth and exert influence over Lee even though he had no authority to act on his behalf.Police say Morgan pocketed more than 2,000 from autograph signing sessions Lee did in May 2018. Authorities say Morgan at one point also took Lee from his Hollywood Hills home to a Beverly Hills condominium "where Morgan had more control over Lee."Lee's daughter said in a request for a restraining order last year that Morgan was manipulating the mentally declining Lee, preventing him from seeing family and friends, and trying to take control of his money and business affairs.Attorney Alex Kessel has said Morgan has never abused or taken advantage of Lee. Kessel said in an email on Saturday that he had been in contact with prosecutors to arrange for Morgan to surrender on Tuesday."It is unfortunate that the DA and police did not honor our commitment to surrender next week and arrested him," Kessel said in an email.Lee died in November at the age of 95.Morgan's bail has been set at 0,000. He will eventually be extradited to Los Angeles to face the charges. 1626
