- 11/01/09 06:27 AM
My wife called the Sheila R. Veloz Breast Imaging Center the other day to schedule her annual Breast Exam. Unbeknownst to her our present insurance carrier did not cover this type of preventive care and so when she was told she would be faced with a $160.00 bill she told the lady on the other line that she didn't realize it would cost that much and would get back with them. Later that day she told me she was holding off from having her breast exam due to the cost. I told her to call back and schedule an appointment anyway and that I … (2 comments)

santa clarita ca business news: Fight back pass it on!
- 06/18/08 05:44 AM
My father-in law asked me to share with you all, a way in which we can fight back against the high price of oil. He was told of an effort being waged by consumers today to force the oil companies to lower their prices. Before I begin I am all about free markets and supply and demand. The government no matter who is in office won't do what needs to be done to curtail oil prices by encouraging other alternative solutions there is too much at stake for them to really intervene. Sure they have these pathetic photo op hearings they … (10 comments)

When I first moved out to the SCV I remember learning about one of my old schoolmates who had also moved out here in the valley. I'm sure for all the same reasons most young families moved out here.

He had a great job at the studios, had recently married, was a new father and living what most would call the "American Dream". I learned one day he just collapsed at home and died.
