The #PalosVerdes Peninsula and #LunadaBay is a landform and a geographic sub-region of the Los Angeles metropolitan area, within southwestern Los Angeles County in the U.S. state of California. Located in the South Bay region, the peninsula contains a group of affluent cities in the Palos Verdes Hills, including Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills and Rolling Hills Estates. The South Bay city of Torrance borders the peninsula on the north, the Pacific Ocean is on the west and south, and the Port of Los Angeles is east. SS Dominator Shipwreck & Palos Verdes Shipwreck.
The hill cities on the Palos Verdes peninsula are known for dramatic ocean and city views, distinguished schools, extensive horse trails, and expensive homes. SS DOMINATOR LUNADA BAY PALOS VERDES SHIPWRECK! - FIREBALL MALIBU VLOG 633
SS #Dominator, a freighter, ran ashore Shipwreck on the Palos Verdes Peninsula in the South Bay area of California in 1961 due to a navigational error while lost in fog. Its remains can still be seen today, and serves as a point of interest for hikers and kayakers.
The Dominator was originally the American Liberty ship Melville Jacoby, built during World War II at the Walsh-Kaiser Company shipyard in Providence, Rhode Island, and launched on 31 March 1944. It was named after the journalist Melville Jacoby, who after reporting on the war in China, and narrowly escaping capture at Corregidor, was killed in an air crash in 1942.
During the war the Dominator was operated by the Wilmore Steamship Company of Boston, on behalf of the War Shipping Administration. In 1947 she was sold into commercial service, and flying the Panamanian flag, was renamed SS Victoria. She changed hands in 1950, and was renamed SS North Queen, then again in 1953 and became SS Dominator. Palos Verdes Shipwreck
On March 13, 1961, Dominator was en route to Los Angeles from Vancouver with a cargo of wheat and beef, when she ran aground Shipwreck off Palos Verdes, California. For two days, the Coast Guard and tugboats attempted to refloat her, but heavy seas and high winds only forced her higher onto the rocks. After two days the crew abandoned ship.

BEDLAM! Torrance Police Called to Control Brown Supremacist
July 12, 2017.
Here's the rest of the abusive craziness from the Brown Supremacists outside of the Torrance City Hall last year.
They couldn't turn Torrance into a sanctuary city, and they did not intimidate the residents, either. VICTORY!

Palos Verdes Schools
One of the most important driving factors for Palos Verdes homes is the Palos Verdes Schools. They are top quality!
The Palos Verdes High's Institute of Technology is competing against other schools in a robotics competition. Team members are, from left: mentor Ron Lee, Julea Chin, Joseph Ford, Candace Johnson, Raul Castrellon, Mike Eirinberg, Cole Schreiner, Ihwa Choi, Khalia Taylor and mentor David Di Giorgio.
Principal Charles Park has watched the Palos Verdes Schools students with amazement. It speaks a lot about Palos Verdes High School, because it shows the students' vision and willingness and will and determination to make something happen, Park said. That is just extraordinary to me. Commending Candace's leadership, Park said she has put together a great team. Whether they win or lose, it's such a fun journey, he said. I think that's what it's about. ... Except for Julea, who wants to win that prize.

US police sergeant on California shooting
(5 Jan 2019) Police say they're working to identify the suspect involved in a shooting early Saturday morning at a bowling alley in Torrance, California that killed three men and injured four others.
Sergeant Ronald Harris of the Torrance Police Department said police responded to calls of shots fired at the Gable House Bowl shortly before midnight.
Multiple victims were found with gunshot wounds inside Gable House Bowl, which is described on its website as a gaming venue that offers bowling, laser tag and an arcade.
Harris said police attempted lifesaving measures upon arrival but were unsuccessful and three men died at the scene.
He added that out of the four male victims that were injured, two were transported to a hospital while the other two sought their own medical attention.
Authorities have not released details about what led to the shooting, but witnesses said it stemmed from a fight between two large groups of people at the bowling alley.
