LOS ANGELES (KGTV) -- A dog named "Jadu" has an Olympian to thank for her life. She was rescued by a Californian Olympian in South Korea - and will soon be available for adoption in San Diego County. Snowboarder Maddie mastro rescued Jadu. Mastro is an animal activist and knew the dog meat trade is big business in Korea, so she changed her flight and flew on a dog-friendly carrier to LAX.  430

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Members of the Trump administration visited Los Angeles Tuesday to get a firsthand look at the city's sprawling homeless encampments and efforts to control them, while President Donald Trump directed his staff to develop policy options to address the national crisis of people living on the streets.The visit by a delegation from several federal agencies came about two months after the Republican president called the homelessness crisis in Los Angeles, San Francisco and other big cities disgraceful and faulted the "liberal establishment" for the problem.In July, Democratic Mayor Eric Garcetti issued a public invitation for the Republican president to walk the streets with him and see the suffering and squalid conditions. The mayor released a letter to Trump on Tuesday saying he looked forward to working together, but tensions between the White House and officials in heavily Democratic California were also on vivid display.Gov. Gavin Newsom has sparred with the White House routinely, and his office released a statement Tuesday saying the state was ready to discuss serious proposals but Trump "could start by ending his plans to cut food stamps, gut health care for low-income people and scare immigrant families from accessing government services."San Francisco Mayor London Breed said in a statement that the city would welcome assistance from the federal government to build more housing "but simply cracking down on homelessness without providing the housing that people need is not a real solution."Garcetti, too, said he was ready to talk but wrote that "the federal government has woefully underfunded our housing safety net, contributing to homelessness" and slashed funding for new housing."We must put politics aside," he wrote.And at an event Monday in Beverly Hills, sponsored by the website Politico, Garcetti's chief of state and federal affairs, Breelyn Pete, said the city looked forward to explaining its homeless strategy to administration officials but added, "They're just not thoughtful, and quite frankly not smart enough, to know what we're doing."Trump would make an unlikely pairing with the Los Angeles mayor, who comes from a heavily Democratic state recognized as the center of the so-called Trump resistance. Trump lost California to Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election by over 4 million votes.White House spokesman Judd Deere echoed Trump's earlier remarks linking homelessness with liberal policies, saying "the president has taken notice of the homelessness crisis, particularly in cities and states where the liberal policies of overregulation, excessive taxation, and poor public service delivery are combining to dramatically increase poverty and public health risks."Like many big cities, Los Angeles has struggled with homelessness for decades, and the population on the streets has grown despite a robust economy. Filthy, drug-infested encampments line downtown streets, and homeless people often sprawl on the lawn of City Hall, with tents nearby. The mayor says 36,000 people in the city are homeless on any given night.Figures released in June showed a 16% jump in Los Angeles' homeless population over the last year. The jump came after the mayor helped convince voters in 2016 to borrow .2 billion to construct housing for the homeless.The mayor's office said the federal group visited several homelessness projects, including a recently opened shelter.On Tuesday, Sacramento County and the city of Sacramento joined the fight to overturn a federal court ruling barring municipalities from prosecuting homeless people for sleeping on the streets if there are no available shelter beds, The Sacramento Bee reported .The Trump administration provided no specifics on what its national homeless policy would entail.Taylor Griffin, a spokeswoman for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, said, "Homelessness is a challenge to the conscience of our nation and a growing humanitarian crisis for communities across our country. The Trump Administration's heartless policies have only exacerbated the matter." 4077

LONG BEACH (CNS) - For thousands of years, millions of tiny white abalone snails lived along the California coast.Now facing extinction, the white abalone will be getting a major boost toward survival this month, thanks to a breeding program spearheaded by marine organizations across the state, including the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach.In mid-November, researchers from the aquarium, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the UC Davis Bodega Marine Laboratory, the Bay Foundation, Paua Marine Research Group and state Department of Fish and Wildlife will be releasing white abalone into the wild at a series of undisclosed locations across Southern California.RELATED: Dog swept out to sea rescued, owner asks for more signage"This is a historic moment, as a species once on the brink of extinction may finally have a chance to rebound," said Sandy Trautwein, vice president of animal husbandry at Aquarium of the Pacific. "This is important not just for white abalone, but for the entire marine ecosystem off Southern California."Researchers are withholding the locations of the planned releases, hoping to give the white abalone the best chance at successfully settling into their new homes. The white abalone were actually placed underwater at their release locations last month, but they remain inside holding boxes."Natural recovery is not occurring fast enough or at all for this species to rebound on its own," said Melissa Neuman of the NOAA National Marine Fisheries Services' Abalone Recovery Program. "Fishing and other human activities brought white abalone to the brink of extinction, and now it is our responsibility to recover the first federally protected marine invertebrate."RELATED: Video: Rare blue whale with calf spotted off San Diego coastThousands of the white abalone have been bred through the program. Aquarium of the Pacific officials noted that when they joined the program in 2008, only 75 white abalones existed in managed care.The once-teeming population of white abalone was decimated over the decades by overfishing and low reproduction rate, according to the NOAA. Recent surveys indicated that the population dropped by about 99% in Southern California since 1970s.The white abalone was officially listed as a federally endangered species in 2001 -- the first marine invertebrate ever to make the list.NOAA officials said that without intervention, the remaining population would likely continue to decrease by 10% a year. 2493

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Fresh snow coated the slopes of the Sierra Nevada on Thursday as a late-spring storm with winter-like potency moved through California, forcing rescues and adding to snowpack and rainfall totals that are already well above normal.Authorities rescued four hikers caught in the weather on the far north's Redwood Coast and two people trapped on a tiny island in the suddenly fast-flowing Los Angeles River.Mammoth Mountain, a popular ski area in the Sierra, reported a foot (30 centimeters) of new snow on its peak, boosting the season total at the summit to nearly 58 feet (18 meters). The resort already announced it had enough snow to allow skiing and boarding through the Fourth of July. Mammoth expects up to two feet of snow by Friday morning. Jason Elrick eagerly followed the storm's progress from his desk at a staffing office in Chino, east of Los Angeles. As the snow piled up at Mammoth, he vowed to make the five-hour drive to the resort late Thursday and hit the slopes in the morning."I have a bit of flexibility at work so I can say, 'Boss, it's snowing. I have to go,' " Elrick said. "The conditions are prime. It's like the middle of winter up there."Elrick, 37, said he expects Friday to be a "bluebird day" — skier slang for sunny conditions following a major snow dump.The wettest winter in years nearly eliminated drought conditions in California. While frequently disrupting travel, a long series of storms stoked a big part of the state's water supply — the Sierra snowpack that melts and runs off into reservoirs during spring and summer.More snow was expected, and winter storm warnings would remain in effect until early Friday for the southern Sierra from Yosemite south to Kern County, the weather service said."Looks like a Winter Wonderland in mid-May!" the Sacramento National Weather Service tweet ed, showing traffic camera images of snowy Interstate 80, a major route that crosses the Sierra north of Lake Tahoe.The unusually cold and wet late-season storm not only put a gray, wintry cast on the Golden State, it posed a problem for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts who normally find moderate conditions by late spring.The California Department of Transportation closed State Route 89 over Monitor Pass. Yosemite National Park earlier announced the closure of a popular road because of the storm.Sequoia National Forest officials warned people wondering when campgrounds and access roads will open that snow is deeper than normal, and recreation sites, roads and trails will be wetter than average. Forest crews normally try to open most campgrounds in time for the Memorial Day weekend, the forest said.The storm unleashed rain in Northern California on Wednesday. Some San Francisco Bay Area cities received around an inch (2.5 centimeters), and an area to the north in Sonoma County that's typically very wet got more than 5 inches (12.7 centimeters).Before dawn, Humboldt County sheriff's deputies found four hikers who had trekked from their vehicles several miles to camp at Gold Bluffs Beach. The storm blew away their tent, and they took shelter in a restroom facility.The rain spread south and reached Southern California in time to make the Thursday morning commute slippery and adding to seasonal rainfall that's already above normal.Alicia Ochoa said she briefly considered staying home from her job as a street vendor in Santa Ana. Instead she bundled up with a sweater, jacket and hat and ventured out in the rain."The water isn't going to stop me," Ochoa, 74, said in Spanish while setting up sodas for sale. "We've got to work."The storm turned the normally languid Los Angeles River into a torrent, trapping two people on a small island of vegetation northeast of downtown. A Fire Department swift-water rescue team managed to reach them by boat.Snowfall in Southern California mountains could reach elevations as low as 6,000 feet (1,829 meters) Thursday night, the San Diego weather office said.Forecasters predicted more rain during the weekend and into early next week. 4052

LONDON (AP) — Queen Elizabeth II has made a knight of the 100-year-old World War II veteran who captivated the British public by walking 100 laps of his garden and raising some 33 million pounds ( million) for the National Health Service.The queen tapped the blade of a sword once owned by her father on the shoulders of Tom Moore on Friday to turn the hero of a nation into a knight of the realm.Moore steadied himself against his now-famous walker and wheeled himself close enough to stand in front of Elizabeth but skipped the normal practice of taking a knee before the monarch. 593
