San Jose’s Vietnam War memorial will mark 10th anniversary

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:11:35 GMT

A decade ago, a small group of volunteers saw their dream realized after five years of working to have a memorial to San Jose’s Vietnam War dead placed downtown. And on March 30, the 10th anniversary of that memorial will be commemorated with a Remembrance Ceremony at the Guadalupe River Park’s Arena Green.The 13-foot-long black granite monument has etched on its surface the names of 142 men who lost their lives in military service during the conflict from 1961 to 1975. And after three years of silence because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the 4:30 p.m. ceremony will continue the tradition of having each name read aloud.The Sons of San Jose board of directors poses in front of the downtown monument on Thursday, March 23, 2023.

100-pound mountain lion camps out in Los Gatos backyard

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:11:35 GMT

A peaceful mountain lion took shelter from the storm earlier this week in a Los Gatos backyard before wildlife officials released it back into its habitat Wednesday morning.The nearly 100-pound cat was spotted sleeping on a fence between Roberts and Blossom Hill roads in Los Gatos Tuesday by residents who called Los Gatos police.After determining it wasn’t a public safety issue, officers contacted the state Department of Fish and Wildlife.“Initially we wanted to give it a shot to leave on its own,” said DFW spokesperson Ken Paglia. “Our preferred option is for a wild animal, like a mountain lion, to leave on its own and go back to its habitat on its own. That’s the least invasive means.”By Wednesday morning the cat was still in the backyard, and wildlife officials used a dart to tranquilize it and transport it back to its habitat for release.The Los Gatos Monte Sereno Police Department contacted local schools Tuesday after the mountain lion was spotted on the fence, which bord...

What It Means for Trump's Campaign to Start In Waco

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:11:35 GMT

Every revolutionary movement needs martyrs. The modern U.S. militant right­ has long had its own, and the most important among them have been dead for three decades: the 70-plus men, women, and children killed in the spring of 1993 at the conclusion of a 51-day government siege at a compound outside the Central Texas city of Waco. They were members of an armed Christian sect, unfamiliar and isolated, and for many Americans, Waco was another footnote in the country’s long history of violence. In the worldview of right-wing militancy, however, Waco is foundational — a gory testament to the dangers of gun control and the deadly power of federal authorities. Waco fueled the rise of the militia movement in the 1990s and inspired the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995; it continues to influence contemporary militant thinking. All of this should be borne in mind when Donald Trump holds the first official rally of his 2024 presidential campaign in Waco on Saturday.In the run-up to the rally, Tru...

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — The top commander of Ukraine’s military said Saturday that his forces are pushing back against Russian troops in the long and grinding battle for the town of Bakhmut, and British military intelligence says Russia appears to be moving to a defensive strategy in eastern Ukraine.“The Bakhmut direction is the most difficult. Thanks to the titanic efforts of the defense forces, the situation is being stabilized,” Gen. Valerii Zaluzhnyi said in a post on Telegram giving a synopsis of a telephone call with Adm. Sir Tony Radakin, Britain’s chief of defense staff.The seven-month battle for Bakhmut, where Russian forces have closed in on three sides, is the longest clash of the war, with Russia deploying both regular soldiers and fighters of the mercenary Wagner Group. Russian forces must go through Bakhmut to push deeper into parts of the eastern Donbas region, though Western officials say that the capture of the city would have limited impact on the course o...
