A lot can happen in 10 years, just ask Gillian Larson, founder of Temecula's Reality Rally. "Look how it has grown," Larson said.

Larson, who competed in 2008 on the popular CBS reality series "Survivor, Gabon," knew she had to use her 15 minutes of fame to accomplish something good. Reality Rally came from that desire. "The whole... Full story

When I am wrong, I am really wrong. As it turns out, this remarkable cast does exceptional work. In my defense, let me explain. As a member of polite society, it was a conscious decision to attend the current show offered at North Coast Repertory Theater called "The Outsider." It's a political spoof. I know, you just want to groan. After all, have we all not collectively agreed, when amongst strangers, not-to-ever discuss religion or politics? Therefore, one has to ask, "Self,...

It's a hit. San Diego Musical Theatre has done it. Based on the 1937 play written by Hungarian playwright Nikolaus Laszio called "Perfumerie," "She Loves Me" is a celebration of the lost art of letter writing. It's a musical based on a bygone era. It is great fun to observe two antagonistic co-workers duke it out during the day only to rush to their respective mail boxes at night in hopes of finding another "Dear Friend" letter which happens to be from the other. Naturally,...
