Farrah Hassen: A bittersweet Arab American Heritage Month

I’ve always known my Arab culture is worth celebrating.
I heard it in Syrian tenor Sabah Fakhri’s powerful voice reverberating in my mom’s car on the way to piano lessons and soccer practice during my youth. I smelled it in the za’atar, Aleppo pepper, allspice, and cumin permeating the air in the family kitchen.

Nancy Magee: SB 976 is a common sense approach to addressing a grave problem

As San Mateo County superintendent of schools and a lifetime educator, I have a special window into schools and the lives of students.

Tyler Anderson looks strong again in Angels’ loss to Reds

CINCINNATI — Angels left-hander Tyler Anderson pitched into the seventh inning for the third time in four starts, but the lone earned run he allowed, a 433-foot home run to Cincinnati Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson, was all the offense the Reds needed in a 7-1 victory on Friday night before a crowd of 22,539 at Great American Ball Park.
