Urban Isolation: Skateboarding in the Streets of Los Angeles where All of the Cars Have Been Edited OutFor the past couple of years, we have all grown familiar with the concept of urban isolation brought upon by the COVID-19 pandemic. This article talks about a different kind of urban isolation—one that displays a serene, perhaps almost eerie, aesthetic akin to that of the 2002 zombie apocalyptic movie 28 Days Later.In 2014, indoor skatepark and skateboard media The Berrics and cinematography camera manufacturer RED Digital Cinema teamed up to create REDirect, a contest for skateboard filmmakers. The winning video was Urban Isolation by Russell Houghten.

California Man Got Arrested 3 Times in 16 Hour SpanIt’s third time’s not a charm for 47-year-old James Langdon. During Super Bowl Sunday, the man got away with crimes twice before getting jailed after committing the third. All in the span of 16 hours.First, he began at Colorado and Louise Streets where he was caught pacing around a parking lot at three in the morning before darting through a crosswalk against a red light. He was arrested for obstructing, but claiming to have been hurt, and was taken to a hospital instead.The second crime occurred a few hours later, when the Glendale Police got a call about a man attempting to trespass into an auto body shop. It was Langdon again. However, because of Glendale’s zero-bail policies, he was soon back on the street.Langdon then wound up actually breaking into someone’s apartment. When the apartment’s owner found him inside, he was already causing a huge amount of damage. The police were called in and this time, Langdon barricaded himself inside, causing a standoff with the cops. He was finally arrested for felony vandalism and burglary. This time, he remained in jail on $150,000 bail. #criminal #crimespree #Glendale #LosAngeles #California #jail
