Feeling the fear? Scratch the surface of most Americans today. We're afraid. You're spooked whether you know it, or whether you'll admit it (which is something entirely different), whether you've pushed it so far down it's there, trying to hide, or whether you're consciously aware to the tips of your nerve endings. Right around the Presidential election most people said they were scared and overwhelmed; many saying they truly feared the future. More than half of Americans aged 40 and younger...

With the end in sight, Pacers President Larry Bird had trade talks with at least five teams before the recent deadline but no deal was made, Magic Johnson called Bird. The former great players for the Lakers and Boston Celtics weren’t reliving their remarkable playing careers. It is likely Johnson inquired about getting George in a trade sometime next season. A trade makes sense for the P...

"South had a shortstop, Jesse (Esphorst, Jr.), who passed away in a car accident two weeks ago. They had a game that day and the next day he's gone. It's real sad. Our prayers go to his family and the...
Republicans want to take away health care from millions of people. The proposed cuts to Medicaid will wreck our state budget and hurt people in our community who already are struggling to make ends meet. Their plan weakens Medicare. It takes three years off the life of the Medicare hospital fund in order to give a huge tax break just to people earning more than $200,000 a year. Their plan does nothing to deal with skyrocketing prices for medical care and prescription drugs. Thank you, Susan...

Like the true legend that he has quickly become, JOHN WICK is back! Ready to allay our fears and be the lone voice of reason and revenge in a world gone crazy. While there's no holds barred high-octane adrenaline rush in this action-packed one-man wrecking team, John Wick delivers much more than an explosive non-stop annihilation of the bad guy; he has a moral code that makes him stand a bit taller, fight a lot harder, and endear himself even more to the movie masses in JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 2.

Having read in your news that councilwoman Salhi-Wells is sponsoring fund raisers for Habitat for Humanity to build 10 affordable units on Globe, adjacent to the 405 freeway, I am compelled to object. As a Realtor, I have sold many homes with various statutory admonitions for the buyers to take note so that they will make an informed decision. Buying a home within 1000 feet of a freeway is a mandatory disclosure in California, set in place to educate buyers in that zone of potential danger. The danger is obvious: respiratory disease and...
