Hines

Jim Hines, a Ventura County-based citizen activist dedicated to protecting public lands, waters and wildlife, has been sounding the alarm about the vulnerability of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area.

In an informal mid-May email newsletter that Hines says goes out to nearly 10,000 people, he said the recreation area was “DOGE Target Number One,” referring to the the Department of Government Efficiency formerly led by Elon Musk.

Hines believes the vision for the Rim of the Valley corridor, which he supports, will one day be realized — but not this year.

Threads, released in 1984 and written by Kes author Barry Hines, tracks the aftermath of an attack on Sheffield and had a profound effect on many who watched it.

The film, written by Kes author Barry Hines, has gathered a cult following for its bleak storyline and vivid portrayal of a post-apocalyptic South Yorkshire.
