AN DIEGO (CNS) - San Diego-based One America News Network was suspended Tuesday, Nov. 24 from uploading new videos to its YouTube channel for one week for posting a video claiming there is a COVID-19 cure. YouTube officials said they took action due to a violation of its COVID-19 misinformation policy, resulting in the removal of the video and a strike on OAN's channel. The strike means the channel remains live, but new videos or livestreams cannot be uploaded for one week. YouTube's three-strikes policy allows for three...

I visited Prague twice with the idea of painting some of those festive views of the city which had escaped the WWII bombs. The first time was during the Cold War, and our journey behind the Iron Curtain was a chilling and intimidating encounter with police holding machine guns to our throats. We visited later, after it became part of the Czech Republic, and had a marvelous time. I never painted anything from either trip, so I recently decided to paint the Old Charles Bridge...

I recently attended "first Sunday free" Gallery Day at the California Center for The Arts Campus in Escondido. Though "free is good," I can say that you will all want to go to this before it closes. It's a perfect chance for a Frida Kahlo fix. In fact, two "Frida's from Fallbrook" have become part of this exhibit thanks to local, but nationally known, artist Daniel F. Martinez. The exhibit is called "The World of Frida" and it came here from Walnut Creek. I made it a point to...

Halloween is just around the corner, but like so many other special occasions and events, the 2020 edition of the spookiest day of the year will have to look a little different due to the coronavirus pandemic. Many traditional Halloween activities pose a high risk for contracting or spreading COVID-19 because they typically bring together large groups of people that do not live in the same household. "While Halloween activities must change, we still want people to be able to d...

Event promoter Goldenvoice did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The festival, which...
The COVID-19 virus was the inspiration for Church Ladies Potluck.

FALLBROOK – Fifteen years ago, two artists made a difference in the Fallbrook art world. They created an art competition that was not juried – that anyone could enter. There was only one restriction to entering –you had to see an avocado somewhere in the artwork. And so, the Art of the Avocado art competition was born. Those artists were George and Gayle Bamber; sadly, George passed away in 2017. This year, 2020, is the 15th anniversary of the competition which has conti...
