Irvine vigil for George Floyd: candles, flowers and silence for 8 minutes, 46 seconds - OCRegister

Irvine have varied from a few dozen to 500, drawing local residents as well as from neighboring cities. David Qualm, a physician in San Juan Capistrano, was among the attendees Thursday. “I’m not working today and I just can’t sit still.” Near the vigil, some Woodbridge High School graduates – wearing their red caps and gowns – were taking photos under colorful bougainvillea and reflecting on the moment. “I went to my first protest ever two days ago,” said Leah Hoffpauer. “It’s strange to be graduating during this time.” Fellow Woodbridge graduate Tiffany Nguyen said: “This is a big milestone in our lives, but what is happening right now is a much bigger milestone in history. It’s surreal to be graduating with social injustice and protest as our backdrop.” Woodbridge High students Tiffany Nguyen, Leah Hoffpauer, Andrea de la Cruz and Hannah Cooper were taking graduation photos in Irvine, near a temporary shrine that went up in honor of George Floyd on Thursday, June 4, 2020. It’s a strange time to celebrate their graduation, they said. “I feel like we want to celebrate, but it’s hard,” de la Cruz said. In Minneapolis, Floyd was eulogized Thursday during a service that was televised live to a global audience and featured celebrities, members of Congress and civil rights leaders. Across Orange County, at least five demonstrations and vigils were scheduled for Thursday, as protests continue across the nation in the wake of Floyd’s death while in police custody May 25. Four Minneapolis police officers, all fired from their jobs, now face charges after one of them knelt on Floyd’s neck for almost nine minutes while the other three looked on. Two autopsies concluded that Floyd’s heart stopped beating during the police restraint and compression of his neck. The officer’s knee on Floyd’s neck is a metaphor for the black community’s experience, the Rev. Al Sharpton said during Thursday’s memorial service in Minneapolis. “The reason we could never be who we wanted to be and dreamed of being is you kept your knee on our neck,” Sharpton said. “It’s time for us to stand up in George’s name and say, ‘Get your knee off our necks.’” ...

Here's an easy landscaping guide to the best native plants - Los Angeles Times

National Park Service to work with other native plant promoters in Southern California: the Tree of Life Nursery in San Juan Capistrano, Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden in Claremont and the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden in Santa Barbara.The grant provided a facilitator, Patrick Johnston, “who was the soul of patience,” said Lili Singer, director of special projects at Theodore Payne. “Getting everybody to agree on a list of plants was a game-stopper for me, but he helped us step by step through the process. We hoped it would take 18 months, but from the time of our first conference call to the time the finished cards arrived, it took three years.”Ultimately the group decided to create a series of flash cards “about the size and shape of an iPhone 6,” said Mike Evans, founder of the Tree of Life Nursery. “They’re like a deck of cards with a hole punched in the corner, and a ring to hold them together, but you can take them apart and spread them out on a table to see what plants go with other plants. They don’t replace a website or great books on the shelf; they’re just easier to carry around and use for planning.”Singer wrote most of the text, with editing and contributions by Evans. And Carlos Flores, a Theodore Payne volunteer and National Park Service employee, created the design and made all the translations into Spanish. Advertisement The organizers “had quite a lively discussion about whether the text should also be in Spanish,” Connolly said. “There was pushback from people who wanted more info about each plant in English, but the landscape industry in Southern California is largely staffed with people who speak Spanish. We wanted to create a way for everyone to be able to talk about these native plants.”This way, she said, the cards provide a bridge for Spanish-speaking gardeners and their English-speaking clients to more easily discuss the kinds of native plants they want to add to the yard.And while the cards are relatively small, they pack a lot of information. You can tell at a glance how tall and wide a particular plant will grow, when it blooms, how quickly it grows, what birds and animals it attracts and how much water and sun it needs to thrive.The cards aren’t a definitive list of Southern California native plants. They don’t include milkweed, for instance. But the decision was to create an entry-level guide that features some of the showiest plants in the native palette. “Milkweed is a very important habitat plant but it’s not m...
