SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- At the height of the pandemic, public transit agencies were able to operate on COVID relief funds. Now, that money is running out and transit companies are nearing what they call a fiscal cliff.Lawmakers are working to make sure cuts aren’t made to train and bus schedules. Both the State Senate and State Assembly are working to address the fiscal cliff that public transit agencies are warning of. BART, Muni and other systems say that without additional funds, they’ll have to start making drastic cuts to train and bus schedules as soon as this fall. When California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced his state budget, it slashed $2 billion in transit infrastructure money. According to State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-CA) those cuts will impact the Bay Area’s commute.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Two days after the PGA Tour and the Saudi Arabia sovereign wealth fund agreed to a partnership that ends all litigation, another lawsuit has been filed against LIV Golf and Phil Mickelson over a logo.Cool Brands Supply, an Argentine lifestyle and skateboard company, filed a trademark infringement lawsuit last Thursday that claims Mickelson’s “HyFlyers” logo used in LIV Golf is a knockoff of their Fallen Footwear logo.Both logos feature a pair of “Fs” facing in opposite directions.Mickelson is the team captain of HyFlyers, which includes Brendan Steele, Cameron Tringale and James Piot.The complain says Fallen Footwear has used the back-to-back Fs for a logo since 2003. It accuses LIV of using the logo on hats, shirts and sweatshirts sold as merchandise.“The similarities between the two marks, particularly when used on clothing, are striking, and are confusing consumers and causing damage to Plaintiff’s senior mark and brand,” Cool Brands Supply argue in the lawsuit...Accustomed to playing with injuries, Panthers prepare for Game 5

PARKER, Colo. (KDVR) — Constant rain is having an impact on streets and roads in the Denver metro area. The holes are so big in some places, drivers are having to find new temporary routes around them.Steady rain continues to fall south of Denver, and the abundance of moisture can be a problem. What is causing the recent sinkholes in Colorado? At one point on Monday, more pea-sized hail was falling in Elbert County. That’s where giant sinkholes have forced County Road 13 to shut down south of Ferns Road.Chris Richardson, Elbert County commissioner for District 1, said it will take an estimated 10-14 days to repair CR 13.“Water flow must first be diverted through the remaining culvert so work can be done safely,” Richardson said.In Elizabeth, rain turned a horse trail into a river.
