• Hurricane Marie destroys beaches, homes and prompts hundreds of rescues (ocregister.com) — Huntington Beach's shoreline has been carved into steep drop-offs and unstable sand walls after Hurricane Marie's powerful swell, forcing lifeguards into thousands of preventative contacts to keep swimmers out of danger. Across Orange County, homes, parking lots, and beloved beaches suffered severe erosion and damage, while officials now assess infrastructure impacts and warn residents to stay cautious near the surf. 
• Pete & Gerry's Eggs Hit With Class-Action Lawsuit in California Over Misleading Marketing Claims (peta.org) — A new class-action lawsuit filed out of Huntington Beach targets Pete & Gerry's egg marketing, alleging its "free range" and "pasture raised" claims mislead consumers about crowded hen conditions. Local shoppers who paid premium prices for these eggs could be part of the nationwide class, while PETA urges residents to consider vegan egg alternatives and offers resources for making the switch.
