Many people think back upon their school days with nostalgia, especially those who grew up in the "Leave it to Beaver" world that emerged after the world wars. The 1950s brought forth a kinder, gentler national image. Beaver ran home to his mom who cleaned their middle class house wearing a pretty dress and a string of pearls. She calmed her world. Father knew best in those days and Donna Reed managed to feed and nurture her family through any storm. Children's books of that era displayed...
With the high cost of living, I always try to save in my travel/fuel budget as I can. Yes, a day trip to Los Angeles for $5.75 is possible! I used the Metrolink train station on Sierra Highway in Lancaster to get to the Los Angles area. You just have to get yourself there and you can ride the train if you are a senior (65+) for $5.75, one way. For a regular train pass it's a bit more, but still very cost effect to get to Los Angles Union Station where there is a lot to see, like the Historic...

Fall is a special time of year for my fiancée Rick and I. As the air cools and the leaves turn golden, we try to take every chance we can to take small hikes. Along with our love for hiking, we've made homemade granola bars a staple in our routine, providing the perfect snack for our mini-outdoor adventures. Granola bars have been a favorite for hikers, and they have an interesting history. In the late 1800s, Dr. James Caleb Jackson created a version of granola by baking graham flour into...

Like many of you, last February I was terribly sad to find out that the Hitching Post Theater in our fair little town had closed its doors for good, due to the untimely and unexpected death of owner Will Viner. And then like many of you, I was delighted to find out the beloved little four-screen theater was reopening this summer with new owners. Open it did, refurbished and improved with a new look – but still with the small town feeling so many of us had come to love – a welcome happening...

When I was no more than 12, in 1940, I used to spend some time in the afternoons sitting on the front steps of our home on Curry and F streets. I would either have a book or perhaps just sit there petting the dog. Of course, my ulterior motive was to see if the 13-year-old boy I liked would be riding by on his bike. His happening by at that particular time was not accidental, for he would always "happen by" and we'd talk for an hour. Things were so simple in those days. He would park his bike...

Another building near and dear to my heart closed last week as the Oakland Athletics played their final game at the Oakland Coliseum. I am one that is all for nostalgia, but unlike most fans, I do not let that blind me to the reality of life, and the reality of the business that is Major League Baseball and professional sports in general. Since the late 1960s the Coliseum has been relatively untouched, except for the renovation in the mid 1990s that added "Mount Davis," the extra seating and...

It seems like every time we turn around the cost of our cable/satellite TV service goes up. And for many, we only watch a couple of channels from the hundreds they provide. And if you want premium channels, you still have to pay for them. So, a regular question I get is, are there alternatives to this quandary? In today's age, we have smart televisions. What makes them "smart" is the ability to directly connect them to your internet, and then you can stream online content from hundreds of free...

Stem cells are the foundation of our body's repair system, versatile cells with the ability to transform into various specialized cell types essential for maintaining our health. However, as we age, the regenerative power of these cells wanes, hampered by genetic factors, environmental stressors and lifestyle choices. At the age of 20, we are endowed with an impressive one billion stem cells. Yet, as the years pass, this reservoir dwindles dramatically: • By age 30: a 60% decline to 400...

When we lose a loved one, we often want to make sure that our final farewells encompass all that they were and all that they loved. We feel pressed to make sure that everything they wanted is brought to the service, memorial or celebration of life. We forget that we, too, are a part of this farewell. It is important to remember that these events are not only to honor those who have passed, but to bring some level of closure within ourselves. Under the pressure of making sure that everything is...

French composer Claude Debussy once said "There is nothing more musical than a sunset," and with that sentiment in mind, the Tehachapi Mountains enjoy the lingering notes, the pleasant melodies, of many beautiful sunsets.

Even on mostly clear days, where the sky overhead is an infinite blue,...
