- At the Palisades Tahoe ski resort, the Tahoe Via Ferrata offers warm-weather visitors an opportunity to touch areas of the resort usually considered out-of-bounds when covered in snow.
Over 2-4 hour guided tours, climbers of all ages ascend one of the Sierra Nevada’s smaller summits to get a hit of adrenaline in their system and take in a stunning view. The via ferrata stays open as long as there is no snow on the ground. This year, Palisades Tahoe expects to open its ski runs Nov. 25, the day before Thanksgiving.

- Determining which colors look best on a person, complimenting an individual’s complexion and skin color, is at the center of Hannah Yan’s new color analysis business. Launched in June, it’s the only service of its kind in Sacramento.
Color analysis is both a science and an art, building on color theory with the subjectivity of style and fashion. For example, a person with warm undertones to their skin —subtle golden, yellow, or peachy hues underneath the surface —wearing cool blue colors may make them look grayish and sickly. A person with cool undertones — hints of pink, red, or bluish hues on the face — might look muddy wearing yellow.

- Hundreds of acres of bulldozed trees, 70 cancelled contracts and an estimated $550 million lost later, some former Del Monte peach growers are betting on almonds trees as their next move. Many Yuba-Sutter area farmers, who make up most of the canning peach growers in California, are adding to their existing almond and other tree crop acreage.
The almond trees are a newer self-pollinating variety called Yorizane, which require less labor and costs. While industry uncertainty still looms large, the growers hope these benefits, on top of a more stable almond market, will lead to returns.

The proposal grew out of negotiations between legislators, Newsom’s Office of Business and Economic Development, and the group California Forever, which pushed the shipyard to potentially jumpstart economic and housing development in the region.

- More than 100,000 Ukrainians hold temporary protected status in the U.S. TPS is a government program that provides people who cannot safely return home to designated countries with protection from deportation and allows them to apply for temporary work permits.
Ukraine’s TPS designation was set to expire on Oct. 19 — a date that still appears on the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services website — but the Immigration and Nationality Act required DHS to announce a decision to extend or terminate the designation 60 days prior.
Because Aug. 20 passed without an announcement, the law requires an automatic extension of six months, until April 19, 2027. DHS has not issued an official notice of the new expiration date, leaving some Ukrainians worried about what the protection actually means for their documents and future.

He said the Sheriff’s Office has the less-lethal shock devices and could put them out in the field for deputies to use as early as sometime next month, unless the California Legislature votes to ban the devices statewide.

At the center of the property in the Sacramento suburb of Fair Oaks is a roughly 12,663-square-foot, Santa Barbara-style residence. From above, the estate’s amenities come into focus, including a resort-style pool, full-size tennis court, private casita, four-car garage and outdoor wellness area with a hot tub and cold plunge. Inside, a wine cellar holds about 5,000 bottles.
When it comes to purchasing homes, the governor seems to prefer shopping at the highest price points in a real estate market.
Newsom and First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom bought the seven-bedroom home for $3.7 million in 2018. The Fair Oaks estate is now listed for $7.5 million.

A hearing to consider that request is set for April. Prosecutors can renew their request every two years thereafter, Yolo Superior Court Judge Samuel T. McAdam told Dominguez on Wednesday afternoon.
The order concluded a deeply emotional afternoon punctuated by powerful addresses from the survivors of David Breaux and Karim Abou Najm — Breaux’s sister, Ann Maria; and, Abou Najm’s parents, Nadine Yehya, and Majdi Abou Najm.

- License plate reading technology has been the subject of scrutiny locally and nationally as concerns about civilian privacy and using sensitive location-based data for immigration enforcement escalate.
The concern isn’t unfounded. Law enforcement agencies across California — a sanctuary state — have routinely violated state law by sharing information from automated license plate readers, also known as ALPRs, with federal agencies including ICE and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Proponents of the technology say that capturing plate numbers in real time is an invaluable resource in fighting crime — aiding investigations into kidnapping, finding stolen vehicles and capturing murder suspects. ALPRs have been adopted by at least 5,000 state, local and federal law enforcement agencies nationwide.
Here's how the city of Sacramento deploys ALPR cameras, and what privacy and data-sharing rules apply.

- Description
- Yolo Superior Court Judge Samuel T. McAdam has declared Carlos Reales Dominguez legally insane, and he will be committed to a state hospital following his conviction in the stabbing deaths of two men during a 2023 Davis knife rampage.
McAdam’s decision, which came after Dominguez waived a jury trial to determine sanity, followed a verdict on July 21 in which Yolo County jurors found him guilty of involuntary manslaughter.
Dominguez, who has been diagnosed with schizophrenia, had pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to the April 2023 killings of David Breaux, 50, and Karim Abou Najm, 20, at Davis’ Central and Sycamore parks. A third victim, Kimberlee Guillory, was also stabbed and survived.

- Description
- Walking on K Street in downtown Sacramento, it’s hard to miss the big red letters of the Esquire IMAX Theatre sign. Inside the 86-year-old theater lobby, audiences were lined up to fill their $60 Trojan Horse popcorn buckets before the screening of director Christopher Nolan’s much-anticipated rendering of Homer’s epic “The Odyssey.”
The film, which was shot on 70mm IMAX cameras, is expected to earn between $90 and $100 million in its opening weekend. But only 25 theaters in the country and 41 worldwide are equipped to screen the film the way Nolan intended: on a 60 by 80 foot film screen with speakers that make the theater walls shake.
Esquire is one of only a handful of theaters housing the Grand Theatre projector that can roll through the film. But not only does a theater need the correct projector, it also needs a trained projectionist. Theater director Doug Link said there are only 90 projectionists in the world who know how to operate the hulki...

- Description
- After three years of closure, recreational fishers and local fishing guides welcomed the return of salmon fishing on the Sacramento River and in the Klamath River Basin.
During the 2026 season, fishers may catch two Chinook salmon per day and possess no more than four fish at any time. Depending on the waterway, the season will remain open until Oct. 31 or through the end of the year.
The American River and Mokelumne River will also have full fishing seasons this year after a highly restricted season in 2025 that lasted just six days, when the limit was one Chinook salmon per day.

- Bodycam shows that Sacramento police told a woman ‘it’s illegal to be homeless’
- Runtime

- Description
- Sacramento police bodycam footage from two homeless encampment sweeps show new patterns of enforcement — and the contradictions inherent in criminalizing “camping” when homelessness is technically not a crime.
As part of a small claims lawsuit, the city released more than seven hours of bodycam footage from two encampment evictions involving the same woman last year. In the footage, reviewed by The Sacramento Bee, city police officers lay out a homeless enforcement regime that one officer says has become “zero-tolerance.”
As police note in the videos, this stricter approach to camping was a change for Sacramento — adopted following the 2024 Supreme Court decision known as Grants Pass, which allows municipalities to treat living outside as a crime even when the person has nowhere else to go. The changes were reinforced by Gov. Gavin Newsom’s calls for greater enforcement of anti-camping ordinances in 2025.

- One of the world’s most deadly mushrooms grows in the Sacramento area, where it can be accidentally eaten by a dog — or a toddler.
After four nights in the UC Davis Veterinary Hospital, a golden retriever puppy who had ingested amanita phalloides — more commonly known as the death cap mushroom — days earlier wriggled in her owner’s arms as she was successfully discharged.
“She seems to have recovered perfectly, which most dogs aren’t that lucky,” said Brittney Sanfacon, a resident veterinarian in the emergency room of the hospital who handled the puppy’s case.
