I enjoy reading my copy of Bloomberg Business Week but the March 27, 2017 – April 2, 2017 was just full of surprises. For example, the F.B.I. gave a guy that just agreed to be an informant several high-tech devices, a set of keys with a hidden recorder and realistic Starbucks gift cards that recorded audio. The bad guy working for the good guys sometimes wore a white dress shirt with a button that concealed a tiny camera. In the same magazine on page 72 was a lot about Wendy Williams, such as w...
The Culver City High's third straight win to open the 2017 football season began with swift combinations... until a rash of penalty calls in the second half brought the game to a grind. The Centaurs dismissed North High of Torrance, 42-7, completing a trifecta sweep against three Torrance high schools, including West and Torrance, to open the schedule. The visiting Centaurs took a 28-0 lead at halftime with an offensive unit that wasn't hitting on all cylinders. Regardless, quarterback Jonathan...

The trap was set at Torrance High's Zamperini Stadium last Friday against a very lethal Culver City High football team. The opening chess-like strategy worked for much of the first half as the Centaur high-octane offense was fundamentally kept off the field. But eventually talent, speed, coaching and execution won the nightas the Centaurs routed the Tartars in the second half for a 48-20 victory. "I'm always pleased when our team gets a victory," said Culver head coach Jahmal Wright. We knew...

The Offense Our football team has really put time and effort in the weight room and on the football field, and weve got huge goals for the 17 Season!! stated football head coach Jahmal Wright.
