SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The Trump administration cancelled nearly billion in federal money for California's high-speed rail project Thursday, further throwing into question the future of the ambitious plan to connect Los Angeles and San Francisco.The Federal Railroad Administration's announcement it would not give California the money came several months after sniping between President Donald Trump and Gov. Gavin Newsom over the project. The administration will still try to force California to return another .5 billion that has already been spent.Trump had seized on Newsom's remarks in February that the project as planned would cost too much and take too long. Newsom has shifted the project's immediate focus to a 171-mile line in the state's Central Valley, but he said he's still committed to building the full line.Still, federal officials said California has repeatedly failed to make "reasonable progress" and "abandoned its original vision."Newsom declared the action "illegal and a direct assault on California" and said the state would go to court to keep the money."This is California's money, appropriated by Congress, and we will vigorously defend it in court," he said in an emailed statement.Voters first approved about billion in bond funds for the project in 2008. It has faced repeated cost overruns and delays since. It's now projected to cost more than billion and be finished by 2033.The 9 million the state is losing is critical to the chronically under-funded project. 1524

SACRAMENTO (KGTV) -- Wednesday, State Treasurer John Chiang and the brother of one of the Las Vegas shooting victims called on board members of an educator-only pension fund to stop investing in the sellers of military-style assault weapons, ammunition and other devices banned in California.Jason Irvine, the brother of slain San Diego attorney Jennifer Irvine (pictured below), said he found out his sister had been shot the morning after the shooting when his sister’s friends called him.RELATED: San Diego attorney among victims of Las Vegas concert shootingIrvine recalled the moment on Wednesday saying, “I was told that Jennifer was dancing and having the time of her life one moment, and then shot dead through the head in the next.”CalSTRS is the largest educator-only pension fund in the world, according to their website. As of September, the fund managed a portfolio worth more than 5 billion.RELATED: Names of everyone killed in Las Vegas mass shooting“Why would CalSTRS invest the money of school teachers in companies that sell weapons that injure and kill school teachers,” Irvine said of CalSTRS.“No brother should have to bury his sister or receive her ashes in a box because she was shot by a military-style weapon,” said Irvine.A number of gun law advocates also spoke out at the event.  1338

RIPON, Wisconsin — An assistant professor at a Wisconsin college is getting national attention for the research she just published about a dog's empathy for its owner.The idea came to Ripon College's Julia Meyers-Manor when her collie tried to save her mom from a pile of pillows when she was just playing with her children.In her study, Meyers-Manor observed whether dogs would open a door if their "trapped" owner was on the other side crying or humming, and if so, how much of an effort they would make to "rescue" the person. She also recorded the dogs' heart rate variability.Meyers-Manor said dogs can "feel" your emotions. One dog named Molly rammed through the door and leaped into her owner's arms."If we're distressed they become distressed," Meyers-Manor said.The animals, however, had a hard time deciphering whether the human was being truthful."In the crying condition the dogs basically ran in, and if they did, they did it within 20 seconds," said the assistant professor.About 50 percent of the dogs rammed through the door. Meyers-Manor said the other half did not because they were too stressed over what they saw and heard."Dogs were pacing, whining, showing all types of stress behaviors by their owner's distress," said Meyers-Manor. "So they start to shut down and freeze from opening the door."To many people's surprise, she found service K-9's in the study performed no different than any other pooch.None of the more than 30 animals were hurt in this study.You can read the assistant professor's published research by clicking here. 1596

RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) — Authorities say three members of a family were injured, one critically, when they were ejected from the log ride at a Southern California amusement park.Fire officials say the ride malfunctioned and one of the log-shaped vessels overturned Saturday at Castle Park in Riverside.Officials say riders were thrown from the vessel and trapped in the water.Fire Capt. Brian Guzzetta says a woman was hospitalized in critical condition. A man and 10-year-old boy were treated at a hospital for minor injuries.Guzzetta says a pump apparently malfunctioned, preventing the flow of water onto the track. He says when the log descended from one of the falls, there wasn't enough water to slow it down and it crashed.The log ride is closed during an investigation but Castle Park will remain open through the weekend. 838

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The enthusiasm both parties say exists in the electorate hasn't yet translated into early voting in California, where the percentage of people who have voted so far is similar to this time four years ago.Voters who are Republican, white and older are sending in their ballots early at a higher rate, which is typical in California elections, said Paul Mitchell of Political Data Inc., a firm that collects voter data from the counties.About 570,000 Californians had cast ballots as of early Monday. That's about 100,000 more than voted at this point in the 2014 election. About 12.5 million people received mail-in ballots, compared to 9.2 million four years ago.RELATED: What you need to know about voting this NovemberThe early numbers are just a fraction of the total voters expected to cast ballots by mail. California voters can send in their ballots through Election Day, on Nov. 6, and ballots are counted as long as they are received by the Friday after the election.In 2014 roughly 4.5 million people cast mail ballots."Right now it's hard to tell exactly how much we're measuring enthusiasm and how much we're measuring changes in the mechanics of the elections," Mitchell said.Monday is the deadline to register to vote, although people can register conditionally through Election Day. Their ballots will be treated like provisional ballots that are counted after the voter information is verified.Statewide, Republicans count for just a quarter of registered voters. But they make up 34 percent of early voters.RELATED: See your sample ballot for the November 2018 electionEighty percent of already returned mail ballots are from voters older than 50, even though they make up only about half of the electorate.Democrats need strong turnout to win U.S. House seats in Orange County and the Central Valley that have long been held by Republicans. They're banking on increased enthusiasm among voters angry at President Donald Trump or concerned about issues such as health care and immigration to drive turnout."For Democrats to win these competitive congressional races they need atypical," Mitchell said.Drew Godinich, a spokesman for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said Latinos and young voters are "outpacing expectations" in key districts and that it's too early to jump to conclusions about turnout."In these tight races, every vote counts — and Democrats have been organizing since last year to turn out our voters in these crucial midterms," he said in a statement.More than 19 million people registered to vote as of early September, a record in a California gubernatorial election.Mitchell predicts a 56 percent voter turnout. That would be higher than the 2014 election but lower than 2010. 2774
