    This school is at the intersection of Sunset Blvd. and Barrington Ave., which was on the fringe of our coverage back in the '70s. It is very close to Riviera Country Club. When it started an 8-man football program, the coach begged us to cover them. We sold few papers in Brentwood so we told him we couldn't justify it.
    He said, "Raquel Welch's son is on the JVs and she comes to the games."
    Sports editor said, "What time should we be there?"

    Another note: The football field was in kind of a bowl. One day, the fence around the top of the bowl was covered in green vinyl. Somebody called in to tell us that there were Playboy Playmates playing topless football in the bowl.
    They were filming a movie called H.O.T.S. (you can imdb it). It was a sorority girls gone wild sort of thing. The sorority needed a "cause" to maintain its charter so it created H.O.T.S. -- Help Out The Seals. Playmate of the Month Susan Kiger was the star.

    Oh, I remember H.O.T.S. Mainly for the boobs. Lots and lots of bouncing boobs. Earning it four stars from kid me.

    Like I need to imdb it. It was one of the first movies I would 'sneak watch' on Cinemax after my parents went to bed.

    Down here, August hasn't been part of summer break for a while. By the time Labor Day comes around, most kids have been in school 3-4 weeks. I know a handful of friends whose kids started back July 31. It's ridiculous.

    Returning to the original story: "She has a Ph.D. in biochemistry and molecular biology and previously taught at Penn State Abington."

    I'm curious, would that make her the best credentialed poinstress we've had?

    Seriously, you had to ask this crowd to imdb it? It had boobs. It had Danny Bonaduce. It had a fat bearded drummer that Gilbert Gottfried guessed was the little sister from the partridge family...the resemblance was there

    Biology teacher, which is usually a tell in Poin cases.

    EDIT: Missed court appearance Thursday morning. Also has a previous arrest at Coachella for ecstasy possession. You're welcome, Daily Mail.
