The greatest athlete in the world blew away the field at Santa Anita Park on a hot October afternoon with the sun-baked San Gabriel Mountains towering in approval just furlongs away.

"I can't say enough about the ride. It was just perfect. The horse is great and the people involved with the horse are great," said Art...

“NO OPERATING SYTEM FOUND”. Four frightening words you never want to see on your computer. Debuting on my screen yesterday; my beloved laptop is sick. Which explains why I’m sitting here in the library writing this. What, I’m not the only person who doesn’t have a spare computer just lying around? Yesterday’s grief brings today’s miracle: the library! They have computers (26 of them). They have laptops (yours for two hours). They even have a private room (small) (but with air conditioning)...
To our Temple Akiba community, As the Holy Days approach Cantor and I have been spending a great deal of time preparing.

We WILL share our messages on personal growth, responsibility, brining...

Without question, Walton and the players bonded. The test, of course will be in how the team does when the wins and losses follow. Nice guy Walton, who encourages them, is great f...

The Los Angeles Rams are turning heads while attracting media hits as they won their second consecutive thriller, 37-32, on the road in a hot, muggy Raymond James Stadium last Sunday. Jameis Winston and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were trying to shove the ball down their throat on the final drive of the game but didn't succeed. All this, after the threat of lightning passing through the Tampa area had the NFL suspending the game for over an hour right at the two-minute warning and the Rams hanging...
