We haven't seen much change yet
"Political campaigns are designedly made into emotional orgies which endeavor to distract attention from the real issues involved."
Packed and ready for anything
With the Southern California Regional ShakeOut earthquake drill, raging wildfires and heavy rains still fresh in many community members' minds, disaster preparedness training is certainly a relevant topic - especially for seniors.
Benefit: Singing songs for Stephen Sorenson
This could be Stephen Sorenson's last Christmas, but on Sunday night, he didn't dwell on his poor prognosis.

Concern is not extremism
When asked whether Santa Clarita would employ eminent domain for the seizure of private residential property as a means of furthering the Newhall Redevelopment Project, Paul Brotzman expressly stated that the city "doesn't have the legal authority to acquire private property."
Unions take aim at statewide volunteers
From fires and earthquakes in the West to tornadoes, blizzards and hurricanes in the East, the United States has to contend with many different types of natural disasters.

Saturday night, SCCS played Joshua Springs, the defending CIF champions, but the "hometown" newspaper can't be bothered to cover the game. SCCS did win in a ...

Chock full of holiday cheer
