In The Pipeline: No simple way to help the homeless

Blanking and more blanking. The AYSO Girls U12 Extra Club Team Huntington Beach Region 55 team (whew!), also known as the Strikers, earned the League Cup 2012 Sunday.

City Lights: Let's trade gaffes for perspective
Come back, Mitt Romney. All is forgiven. That comment you made about the binders full of women? Yes, it sounded a little off-kilter at the time, and the nation's comedians have teed off on it. But in the annals of off-the-cuff remarks politicians have...Tags: Chicago Tribune, Detroit Tigers, Baseball, Mitt Romney, Barack Obama

Mailbag: Measure Z not worth the losses
By now, many people have seen the orange posters around town that say "No on Z." But what exactly is Measure Z?

City Lights: Thoughts on gunmen, victims and the media that reports them
It's rare that I remember a magazine cover a decade and a half later, but one that has stuck in my mind — and not in a good way — is the issue of Time from the week after the Columbine High School massacre. Anyone from the class of 1998,...

Mailbag: Vote was a win for residents
Hooray for the Huntington Beach City Council for passing higher fees for developers (Re. "Council approves increase," June 21). Anything that discourages developers from coming to our city is OK in my book. The insane rush to increase densities in parts...Tags: Local Elections, Science and Technology, Politics, Elections

City Lights: The circus act that is the election cycle
This just in: The 2012 presidential race heated up last week, slightly, as a pair of new challengers threw their hats in the ring. Some may recognize former Massachusetts Gov.

Natural Perspectives: Battling skin cancer — and my HMO
I've been battling skin cancer for the past two months. More accurately, I've been battling my HMO to get my cancer removed.

The bad news is that the...Tags: General Practitioners, Allergies, Health and Medical Professionals, Medical Specialization, Procedural Sedation

An accidental author
The poet Allen Ginsberg, who liked to work quickly, had an oft-stated theory about writing: "First thought, best thought." Michael Henderson, a Huntington Beach resident who found himself out of a job early this year, never aspired to be the next...Tags: Book, Michael Henderson, Allen Ginsberg

Natural Perspectives: iCan't get enough of birding apps on iPad
I bought myself an iPad 2 about three weeks ago and became instantly addicted. I should point out that Vic and I are long-time PC people, not Apple people. Well, we used to be anyway. Vic switched his desktop computer from a PC to Mac this year, so he'...Tags: Libraries, Science, Starbucks Corp., Foods and Beverages, Apple iPhone

In The Pipeline: H.B.'s own field of dreams
As I write this, it is early Sunday morning, several hours before Ocean View Little League's championship World Series game versus Japan (an interesting coincidence, give that one of our sister cities is in Japan). The teams, of course, are about 2,600...Tags: Arts and Culture, Chris Cole, Babe Ruth, Japan, Festive Events
