Turns out, sharks actually get really close to humans (who are often unaware) all the time. ALL THE TIME. But it's fine. It actually shows how rare shark attacks are.

Drones show California's great white sharks are closer — and more common — than you think

This Malibu photographer captures images of great white sharks along the Southern California coast, many just feet from unknowing swimmers and surfers.

Fascinating look at the homes that belong to L.A.s “haves” Do remember that there are other homes of similar value whose owners don’t pay nearly as much in property taxes because of Prop 13.

These L.A. homes come with a $1-million property tax bill

Homeowners in L.A. County have until Tuesday to pay their property taxes without a penalty. These twelve homeowners are expected to cough up more than $1 million dollars annually.

My first week at the @latimes : endless parties as we moved out of our historic DTLA building. @adrienneshih 's first week: Mueller report release date announced @gabbfern 's first week: 2 earthquakes. Initiation comes in all shapes and sizes?

I geeked out today on a very special tour of @Cronkite_ASU ‘s new downtown LA campus at the old Herald Examiner building. I envy the students that get to learn here: a historic building with state-of-the art studios, AR sets and event spaces?! Be still my heart!

I went to a silent auction at L.A.’s union station and impulse bought three signs that used to direct riders on the @metrolosangeles Blue Line. Then I took them home on the Gold Line.

If you’re going to the @latimes Festival of Books, grab an official program. It’s got tons of uses!

Today is my last day at the @SoCalNewsGroup and I think that calls for some not-at-all-in-any-way-humble bragging about how awesome my job as digital producer, digital news editor, social media director has been in my 4-ish years here.
