SAN BERNADINO, Cali. -- Matthew Valdivia woke to the smell of smoke, and looked outside to see the glow of a wildfire in the hills near his home in San Bernardino early Thursday.After waking up his wife and children and some neighbors, the Valdivia family joined thousands of other Southern Californians who've had to flee fires sweeping the state. And like those other evacuees, the Valdivias hoped firefighters could save their house.It burned to the ground before sunrise.Valdivia's home was one of at least six that the Hillside Fire, which started in the hills above San Bernardino after midnight, damaged or destroyed Thursday as winds pushed it down into the city, officials say.It is one of 711

TAMPA, Fla. -- A 17-year-old was not allowed to attend her homecoming dance after she decided to wear a jumpsuit.Darcy Krueger said she was turned away at the door for not following dress code.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Justin Beauchesne will never forget the first time he rode a skateboard.“It felt like freedom,” the triple amputee said. “Man, it was awesome, so much better than I ever expected,” he said.When Beauchesne was just 18 months old, he lost both arms and part of a leg to meningitis.“For so long, doctors and nurses and teachers were telling me I can’t do things,” he said.But Beauchesne has always been a fighter, an athlete who craved challenges.When he was 12, he played Tony Hawk’s skateboarding video game. It wasn’t too long before he was trying out a real skateboard.“My mom wasn’t happy,” he said. “But being able to get on a piece of wood, and just feel that freedom, was euphoric.”Now 31, Beauchesne will make an appearance at this weekend’s X Games.But skateboarding is really just a way for Beauchesne to achieve his true passion: helping others.His nonprofit Amp-Ventures gets amputees active in such sports as surfing and paddleboarding.“When I was six, I remember telling my aunt that I wanted to help people,” Beauchesne said. “And now that I’m older, I don’t want to stop.”This story was originally published by Sean Daly on 1173

SURPRISE, Ariz. — While hundreds of Valley Vista High School seniors walked across the stage for graduation Thursday, one student wasn't even allowed inside the venue.LaRissa Waln showed up to her graduation ceremony at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, but was stopped at the doorsby her school's vice-principal. Waln was told she'd have to remove her decorated cap, which she had decorated with Native American patterns and trum, and exchange it for a blank one."I was sad for a moment," she said, "But that just means I get to be out here and stand up for what is right."She and her family, some who flew all the way from South Dakota to watch Waln graduate, stood outside the stadium in protest."It's not just for her, we're fighting for all the ones that follow her," Bryan Waln, LaRissa's father said. "There are other Native American kids out here that would love to practice their religion on graduation day." 936

Smoking has been a lifelong habit for Pete Quinto.“Since I was 21,” he said. “I’m 53.”He lives in New Jersey, a state where the tax on cigarettes is just under a pack, but it could be higher.“I know New York’s pretty high,” Quinto said.New Jersey may soon be, as well. The governor is proposing a state cigarette tax of .35 a pack, placing it on par with New York and Connecticut as one of the highest cigarette taxes in the nation.The very highest? Washington D.C., at .50 a pack. Yet, cigarette taxes vary wildly across the country. The lowest is in Missouri: a mere 17 cents per pack. Others include 30 cents in Virginia, 84 cents in Colorado and .33 in Florida.“Raising taxes is the quickest way to reduce tobacco, particularly among young people and the poor, whom the tobacco industry preys,” said Matthew Myers, who heads up The Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.He said there is a direct link between higher cigarette taxes and lower smoking rates.“The advantage of tobacco taxes is they reduce tobacco use more effectively, more efficiently and more predictably than any other single tactic, while also raising revenue for government,” Myers said.Yet, critics have pointed out that lower-income smokers get hit the hardest by taxes like these and a U.S. Surgeon General report earlier this year, found they have the least access to programs to help them quit.Still, at least one academic study, “Tax Burden on Tobacco,” shows the connection between higher taxes and lower smoking rates. It looked at the price of cigarettes and their sales from 1970 to 2017. The findings? The higher the cigarette price, the fewer packs sold.“In an ideal world we would be down to zero,” Myers said. “We’re a long way from there.Back in New Jersey, Pete Quinto said if the tax goes up as much as proposed, he might finally quit.“Most definitely,” he said. “I’m not paying all that money.” New Jersey has not raised its cigarette sales tax in a decade. The proposal would raise an extra 8 million a year in the state. 2030
