According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

To assume that Arthur Goldwag’s The Politics of Fear: The Peculiar Persistence of American Paranoia is a simple review of already well-trod contemporary politics would be a serious mistake. The short (284-page) work offers thoughtful and important insights on a country he describes as “marinated in conspiracy theory.” (4) Goldwag takes his reader on a journey that is vast in its historical depth, and sometimes breathtakingly disturbing.

“Go home,” posts reader after reader. The comment streams of my articles about the migrants have a common refrain: “You’re not welcome here.” And much, much worse. I’ve had to shut down the comments on some of my articles due to downright hostile remarks. It occurred to me, however, that the migrants probably aren’t reading American news, which is published in English. Immigrant rights and housing advocate Amy Beck confirmed my suspicions. “No, I don't think they're aware because the majority don't speak English and don't follow local Denver news,” Beck said in an email. ”It's also not something I've ever mentioned to them. It's not important to me to point out haters. I'm usually talking with them about services and their rights. Also just helping them along their path. I've never discussed haters with them unless haters physically show up in a camp and we have to deal with them firsthand.”

Opinion: Anti-migrant comments, not limited to Denver, fall upon deaf ears

CALIFORNIA – A new study, published May 20, found that fluoride exposure can cause harm to a fetus if consumed during pregnancy – a critical period for brain development. According to the study, nearly three-quarters of the United States population receives drinking water that contains fluoride, a practice that began in 1945 that is said to help prevent tooth decay.

I come from a military family. My father served in the Pacific and my mother was a heavy casualty Army nurse in Europe during WWII; my two brothers served in Vietnam and I served in Afghanistan — we have all been betrayed. Late Senator John McCain was betrayed after heroic service to country and over five years as a prisoner of war. Donald Trump brazenly told us that he liked people who weren’t captured, he told us that he loved the people who brutalized our Capitol police, he said that he fell in love with a human rights monster cited by the United Nations for crimes against humanity, and he said that Vladimir Putin was a genius for his invasion of an allied nation.

The brilliance and importance of John Patrick Stanley’s Doubt, wonderfully performed at Altarena Playhouse , is that it addresses the immensely horrible abuse of children by Catholic priests in the United States and around the world by focusing on just one child, a student at one school, who may or may not have been harmed by one priest.
