For more than six decades, the Phoenix Heart Ball has brought our community together to raise critical funds and awareness for the American Heart Association — an organization that's been fighting heart disease and stroke for over 100 years. This year marks the 66th Annual Phoenix Heart Ball, happening November 22, 2025, and it's a celebration of generosity, research, and the people whose dedication keeps every heart beating stronger.

This week on 'AI Lawyer Talking Tech,' we examine a profession fundamentally remaking its foundation, driven by exponential advances in artificial intelligence. Legal tech giants, including Harvey, showcase massive financial backing, with over $800 million raised, demonstrating AI's power to automate traditional junior lawyer tasks like drafting and contract analysis, thereby accelerating workflows and promising substantial time and cost savings. However, this swift adoption coexists with mounting professional risks; we explore hundreds of reported instances where AI "hallucinations" led to fabricated case citations, resulting in sanctions for attorneys and retracted court rulings by judges across the globe. This tension emphasizes the crucial need for rigorous governance, demanding that attorneys rely only on professional-grade AI tools built on authoritative, vetted content and adhere to a strict verification imperative to uphold professional credibility and ethics.

In this episode, my travel partner Cynthia and I explore Al Ula in northwestern Saudi Arabia – where ancient culture meets cutting-edge architecture. We stroll through Old Town's 1,300 mudbrick houses, chat with a modern young Saudi woman named Dalal, and marvel at Maraya, the world's largest mirrored building shimmering in the desert. We also test our luck (and our rental car) in the sand again – with a dramatic sunset rescue by friendly locals. As Saudi Arabia opens up to visitors, this mix of hospitality, history, and high-tech design feels like a glimpse into the country's future. See pictures and read more on https://www.theradiovagabond.com/254-saudi-arabia/

I denne episode udforsker jeg sammen med min rejsepartner Cynthia byen Al Ula i det nordvestlige Saudi-Arabien – et sted, hvor historie og moderne arkitektur mødes midt i ørkenen. Vi vandrer gennem Old Town med 1.300 lerklinede huse, møder den unge, fremsynede Dalal og besøger Maraya, verdens største spejlbygning, der glitrer i sollyset. Selvfølgelig sidder vi også fast i sandet igen – men bliver hjulpet fri af venlige lokale, mens himlen farves dramatisk af solnedgangen. En dag fyldt med kontraster og gæstfrihed i et land under forandring. Lyt med – og hvis du vil se billederne og læse mere om turen, finder du det her: https://www.radiovagabond.dk/302-saudi-arabia/

In this special episode of SGV Connect, your hosts SBLA SGV Reporter Chris Greenspon and SBLA Editor Joe Linton take listeners on a tour of the newly opened Metro A Line (formerly Foothill Gold Line) extension. The trip begins at the new Glendora Station, where we walked to Finkbiner Park. From there, we go east to San Dimas for lunch at the cozy Rail Side Café. Then in La Verne, we take in Bonita Avenue's elaborate Halloween decorations. Try to see these for yourself before they're gone (photos below). The journey concludes in Pomona at the Pomona North, for now the end of the line, where commuter rail and light rail make for a key working-class transit hub. Along the way, we reflect on walkability, local character, and how to enjoy this side of the SGV without a car. Plus more recommendations in each town. A copy of the transcript is available below. SGV Connect is supported by Foothill Transit, offering car-free travel throughout the San Gabriel Valley with connections to the new Gold Line Stations across the Foothills and Commuter Express lines traveling into the heart of downtown L.A. To plan your trip, visit Foothill Transit. "Foothill Transit. Going Good Places."Sign-up for our SGV Connect Newsletter, coming to your inbox on Fridays! Chris Greenspon: Welcome to SGV Connect episode 143. I'm Chris Greenspon. Damien Newton has the day off for this episode because it's a special tour of the Metro A Line extension with our editor, Joe Linton, and me. We want to keep the spotlight on this new part of the light rail system in the 626. But first, a reminder that SGV Connect is supported by Foothill Transit, offering car-free travel throughout the San Gabriel Valley with connections to the new A Line stations across the foothills and commuter express lines traveling into the heart of downtown L.A. To plan your trip, visit foothilltransit.org. Foothill Transit—going good places. Now, of course, the Foothill A Line connects SGV residents in the foothills to Pasadena, downtown L.A., and Long Beach. But did you know you can also ride it east? To give you a feel for what you can get up to in the area, we took a ride on the train and got out at each stop to explore and talk about what there is to see and do. Joe Linton: My name is Joe Linton. I'm the editor of Streetsblog Los Angeles. I'm here with— Chris Greenspon: Chris Greenspon, reporter for the San Gabriel Valley region, SGV Connect. Joe Linton: We're here at the brand-new Glendora Metro A Line Station. It's one of four new stations. Today we're going to take a sampling tour of the four new stops on the A Line—the former Gold Line, or Foothill Gold Line as they called it—and see what you can walk to near the stations, what's interesting about each one, and get a sense of what you can expect when you ride the new train. Chris Greenspon: Glendora, of course, is known for The Donut Man with its seasonal strawberry and peach donuts. But there's also The Hat's classic pastrami and JPM Comics, all within a short bike ride of the train. We walked past downtown Glendora's charming gumdrop trees and historic houses to reach the real center of Glendora life—Finkbiner Park. It's a nice green space with volleyball, a skate park, pickleball courts, basketball, and a band shell. But remember, it's Finkbiner, not Finkbinder. Joe Linton: Okay, Finkbiner Park—it's not a hop, skip, and a jump from the Metro station, but it's what, a 15- or 20-minute walk? Not bad. There was probably a more direct route. It's one of those things with transit—I tell people, "Oh, I like this restaurant or this park," and it's not like I'd drive across town to get there, but because it's within a few blocks of a Metro stop, it's easy for me to go. It's easy to take my daughter there. It's not always the most incredible destination, but it's close and pleasant. Chris Greenspon: That was a big reason why I started reporting on the San Gabriel Valley in the first place—even before anyone was paying me—because it's nice that there are regular, local places to go, things to do, and people to see. It's not like going to Griffith Park where you'll see 400 tourists from Norway getting off a bus. You can actually have some breathing room here and hear yourself think. Speaking of journeys that aren't just about the destination, next we headed to San Dimas Station. Get off in San Dimas if you're looking for trails or a bigger regional park like Bonelli. Check out the Antonovich Trail leading into San Dimas Canyon and Cataract Falls—a great place to watch the sunset. This wilderness between freeways must have inspired the carved walking stick art back up at the Metro station. These wildlife pieces are great—I like the salamander back there and the skunk right here. Our stop included a one-block hike for lunch at Railside Café, right beside the San Dimas Metro Station, where we even had train-shaped breakfasts—just kidding. Joe Linton: It was yummy. I'm a sucker for muffins and gravy, whatever—it scratched a certain itch. Not something I should eat every day, but very good, and it's just a block south of the San Dimas Station. Chris Greenspon: Yeah, with ample patio seating. Moving on—with Halloween on the rise, we took to Old Town La Verne. Every October, the million-dollar homes on both sides of Old Town get decked out with awesome Halloween decorations. On All Hallows' Eve, Bonita Avenue is partially closed to vehicles, and trick-or-treating begins around 5:30 p.m. There are also some great restaurants there if you want something besides candy afterward. Joe Linton: This one's got stuffed animals, blood-splattered sheets, and a sign saying "Free Horror Show." It's been taped over and rewritten—it's kind of awesome. Chris Greenspon: Yeah, I don't even know what game this is supposed to be—maybe you're supposed to throw baseballs at dolls or something? Joe Linton: Creepy—not just dolls, but creepy dolls, like the kind that might inhabit your nightmares. Chris Greenspon: This is the pièce de résistance—the Jaws-themed house with five screaming sharks coming out of the grass. Joe Linton: Life-size—what, seven or eight feet tall? Sharks with mouths open, sharp teeth, severed limbs in the mouths. So how does it look at night? Chris Greenspon: It looks great at night. See our pictures at la.streetsblog.org on the post for this episode. And while you're there, click the link to read about the pedestrian bridge that the City of La Verne is building over Arrow Highway to connect the Metro station to the Fairplex. Now, back on the train. This is your Metro. Let's keep it clean. Chris Greenspon: Pomona is the end of the line for now. For that reason, it's by far the most-used of the new stations, and it has great art paying tribute to everyday Pomonans—but it feels like something's missing. Joe Linton: We're not in the heart of Pomona. The station is called North Pomona. Downtown Pomona has the museums, cafés, City Hall, good food, and music. Here, we're at the north end of town—more of an industrial rail corridor, not much housing or retail. Chris Greenspon: There is some newer, more upscale housing on this side—it's a quieter part of town. This is the part of Pomona that people tend to associate more with Claremont or La Verne. Joe Linton: Yeah. So Pomona North doesn't have a lot to walk to today. The city is building new housing along Garey Avenue, and there's more in the works. There's also an old depot building the city hopes to turn into a café or coffee shop. So there are efforts to activate the area, but there's not much open yet. Let's walk over to the Metrolink Pomona North Station, which is about 40 feet from the A Line platform. Chris Greenspon: This connection between light rail and commuter rail makes Pomona North decidedly the most working-class stop on the A Line extension. Joe Linton: It's on the San Bernardino Line, which runs about every half hour during the day on weekdays. You can get to San Bernardino—all the way to Redlands via another connection. There's not much to do right here, but it's a worthwhile connection. You can get to Claremont, Montclair, and points further east on the Metrolink train. Chris Greenspon: There's also a shuttle here that takes people to Cal Poly, so it's a great connector. Joe Linton: Yeah, it's an end-of-the-line commuter station with a lot of parking. The hope is to extend to Claremont and Montclair, but that'll take a while. This is the end of the line for now. Chris Greenspon: And that's our little tour of the new A Line stops and their surroundings. Hopefully it'll get extended to Claremont before too long, but in the meantime, you can bike there from Pomona North. Some system info: trains run from 5 a.m. to midnight, and fares are $1.75 with free transfers. During peak hours, trains run about every six minutes, a bit slower in between. That's all. I'm Chris Greenspon—thanks for listening to SGV Connect.

Stepping into the Bright Box Theater, it's clear that Old Town Winchester is more than just a historic district—it's a vibrant community pulsing with creativity and connection. In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael sits down with Nick Helmut, the new owner of Bright Box Theater, and Brady Cloven, executive director of Friends of Old Town, to explore the dynamic events and initiatives shaping the area. Bright Box Theater: Where Every Night is an Event Nick's journey with Bright Box began over a decade ago, starting as a server and working his way up to owner. Today, the theater stands as a cornerstone of local entertainment, offering everything from live music and comedy to drag shows and private parties. “We do over 200 events a year,” Nick shares, emphasizing the venue's commitment to variety. Whether it's bluegrass, rock, or a sold-out murder mystery, Bright Box ensures there's something for everyone. Notably, their Halloween events, including a themed murder mystery and a high-stakes costume contest, have become must-attend occasions, drawing crowds eager for both fun and community. Collaboration Fuels Community Spirit Transitioning from the theater's stage to the streets, Brady highlights the collaborative energy that defines Old Town Winchester. Friends of Old Town partners with local businesses to organize events like the merchant trick-or-treat stroll, where families flood the walking mall for candy and festivities. “We have over 1,600 people registered for the event online,” Brady notes, underscoring the scale and enthusiasm these gatherings inspire. Moreover, the area's breweries join forces for the Hallo-Winchester Bar Crawl, each offering unique themes and a spirited competition for the best brewery. These events not only boost local business but also foster a sense of belonging among residents and visitors alike. Traditions, Fundraisers, and a Touch of Whimsy Beyond the big events, Old Town Winchester thrives on its traditions and creative touches. This year, volunteers adorned the trees with hundreds of plastic pumpkins, transforming the mall into a festive, family-friendly destination. “It looks like a Hallmark city,” Brady remarks, reflecting on the positive feedback from both children and adults. Community engagement extends to meaningful causes as well. The “Paws for the People” fundraiser, a playful campaign to elect a pet mayor for the Taylor Pavilion Project, has already raised over $5,000 for local animal organizations. Residents rally behind their favorite furry candidates, turning philanthropy into a fun, collective effort. Staying Connected and Looking Ahead As the conversation wraps up, Janet, Nick, and Brady encourage listeners to stay engaged through social media and local websites. With a packed calendar of performances, parties, and community projects, Old Town Winchester continues to evolve as a destination where tradition meets innovation.

Aunties on Air: Community Collaborations & Creating FirstsConnecting across community and the vastness of Wabanaki territory offers opportunity and excitement. Often, when we work together, we can create even bigger and more impactful things than if we worked alone. The story that will be shared today is a powerful one, a story of connection where two organizations came together to create the first ever Wabanaki beadwork exhibit, carefully designed by three powerful indigenous women (Caroline, Keyana, Nancy). The Museum of Beadwork (MOB) is a non-profit in Portland, Maine offering beaded artwork from artists across the world while supporting artists at all levels of skill development. The MOB was created and now led by Kristina Skillin and Heather Kahn. We are thrilled to have Kristina in the Aunties studio with us today. The Aunties will be discussing the power and creativity behind this new exhibit; they will also share when and how you can capture this creation.Wabanaki Words Used:Apc-oc (again in the future, parting, good-bye, farewell) https://pmportal.org/dictionary/apc-oc Topics Discussed:Museum of Beadwork - https://www.museumofbeadwork.org/Kristina Skillin and Heather Kahn - https://www.museumofbeadwork.org/pages/staffFalmouth, Maine - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falmouth,_MaineCoastal Maine Botanical Gardens - https://www.mainegardens.org/San Francisco, California - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_FranciscoDr. Sylvia Torti - https://www.coa.edu/about/administration/president/College of the Atlantic - https://www.coa.edu/about/Caravan Beads - https://www.caravanbeads.com/Jan Huling - https://janhuling.com/Princess Watahwaso (Lucy Nicolar Poolaw) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_Nicolar_PoolawChief Poolaw's/Princess Watahwaso's Teepee - https://www.penobscotnation.org/departments/cultural-historic-preservation/historic-preservation/princess-watahwasos-teepee/Penobscot Indian Island Reservation - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penobscot_Indian_Island_ReservationBangor Beautiful - https://www.bangorbeautiful.org/Friendly's - https://friendlysrestaurants.com/Quiero Cafe - https://quierocafe.online/Higgin's Beach - https://www.higginsbeachmaine.com/Portland, Maine - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portland,_MaineMackworth Island - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mackworth_IslandAnn Pardilla - Ann Pardilla was born in Old Town, Maine (to a Penobscot mother and a Kiowa father) and grew up on the Penobscot Indian Island Reservation. Ann later travelled the world with her husband George Pardilla and their six children throughout his time in the military.

Get the real backstory of Bangkok with Bangkok Pat: From how Nana and Soi Cowboy actually began to where locals still roam in the Old Town today. We talk Pattaya then vs now, the BTS era that reshaped the city, night markets that aren't just for tourists, and the best neighborhoods for expats (On Nut, Ekkamai, Thonglor and more). If you're planning a trip or thinking about living in Bangkok, this episode is for you!

On a crisp September morning, the Northern Shenandoah Valley came alive with the spirit of service. Nearly a thousand volunteers donned bright orange t-shirts and fanned out across five counties and the city of Winchester for United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley's annual Day of Caring—a day dedicated to giving back, building connections, and strengthening the fabric of the community. Janet Michael, host of “The Valley Today” and board chair for United Way of Northern Shenandoah Valley, served as both guide and storyteller for this special episode, recorded live as she visited project sites bustling with activity. “It is a day when the entire community comes together to serve local nonprofits and residents,” Janet explained, her pride evident as she described the scale of the effort. Painting Hope at Edgehill Recovery Center At the Edgehill Recovery Center, the air was thick with the scent of fresh paint and the hum of teamwork. Janet spoke with Elizabeth, an equity production supervisor at Navy Federal Credit Union, who was rolling paint alongside her team. “It's very competitive to get into,” Elizabeth laughed, describing how quickly volunteer slots filled up. For her, the Day of Caring was not just about giving back, but also about building camaraderie within her team. “It's awesome to be able to build our community while helping our community,” she said. Transforming Evans Home for Children The next stop was Evans Home for Children, where Executive Director Amy Rice marveled at the sea of volunteers tackling landscaping and maintenance projects. “As much as we are a little nonprofit, we have five acres in the middle of Winchester—that can be a lot to maintain and manage,” Amy shared. The Day of Caring, she explained, accomplishes in a single day what would otherwise take her small staff a year or more. “It's a safety and security issue to make sure that we are good with our licensing, that we are safe for the children to be here. The families feel safe placing their children with us. That's really, really important to us.” Amy was quick to credit her program director, LaMishia Allen, for orchestrating the day's logistics and ensuring everything ran smoothly. She also encouraged listeners to reach out year-round, noting that the need for volunteers and donations never ends. A Legacy of Service at Fremont Street Nursery At Fremont Street Nursery, the city's oldest licensed childcare center, Executive Director Freda Roberson beamed as she described the impact of the Day of Caring. “To see the amazing hardworking volunteers come out—it not only helps Fremont, but it also betters our community,” she said. Volunteers from Navy Federal painted playhouses, washed windows, while Tolley Dental facilitated dental exams for 60 children. “Out of the 60 children, only two had a cavity,” Freda reported, highlighting the tangible benefits of the day's work. Revitalizing Old Town Winchester The Day of Caring wasn't limited to traditional nonprofits. In Old Town Winchester, volunteers from Valley Health and the Friends of Old Town took a “tourist perspective” to identify ways to improve the downtown experience. “We got to hear some of the ideas that were on the table and give feedback from our perspective, which I think was a great project,” said Jason Craig, Director of Community Health for Valley Health. The group discussed everything from murals and pedestrian safety to access to fresh food and physical activity, underscoring the broad reach of community health. Personal Connections and Lasting Impact Throughout the day, Janet met volunteers like John and Billy from Warfel Construction, who helped residents at Winchester House with cleaning tasks. “It was great to catch up with them and learn their story too,” John reflected, noting the personal connections forged through service. At the Our Health campus, a team from Edward Jones wrote thank-you notes and made calls for the Alzheimer's Association, brightening the days of volunteers and participants. “We're actually hearing stories of families that have been impacted by Alzheimer's,” said Shalini Mickos, emphasizing the emotional resonance of their work. Jodi Young, Executive Director of Healthy Families Northern Shenandoah Valley, showed off baskets filled with diapers and baby supplies—assembled in just two hours by a small team of volunteers. “If it was just us collecting, we'd be taking time away from the families,” she explained, grateful for the extra hands. A Call to Action As the episode drew to a close, Janet reminded listeners that the Day of Caring is not just a one-day event, but a call to ongoing engagement. “We all have something to give. For some it's money. For others, it's time and skills, and for all of us, it's being willing to listen to the struggles that someone is having, be a little more understanding, and be a little more open-minded,” she said. The Day of Caring stands as a testament to what can be achieved when a community unites in service. Whether painting walls, planting flowers, or simply offering a kind word, every act of caring helps build a stronger, safer, and more compassionate place to call home. For more information on how to get involved, visit United Way NSV's website or reach out to local nonprofits—because, as Janet put it, “United is the way to spark change.”

On a lively day in Old Town Winchester, the air buzzes with the energy of local businesses and the hum of community life. Tucked into Old Town Walking Mall in downtown Winchester, Worlds Away Escape offers a unique kind of adventure—one that challenges the mind, fosters teamwork, and brings a sense of playful mystery to the heart of downtown. In a recent episode of "The Valley Today," host Janet Michael sat down with Worlds Away Escape owner Ariel Pugh, and Brady Cloven, executive director at Friends of Old Town, to explore the story behind this local gem and its impact on the community. A Passion for Puzzles Becomes a Business Ariel's journey to escape room ownership began with a childhood steeped in games and puzzles, thanks to her parents' love for both video and board games. “I grew up playing video games with my dad, sometimes board games but more video games with him, and always board games and maybe some video games with my mom,” Ariel recalls. Her passion for problem-solving led her to try every escape room she could find, eventually helping to test new rooms at the Winchester location. When the previous owners decided to sell, Ariel—on leave from her corporate job—took the leap, supported by her then-fiancé (now husband), and became the new owner. The Art and Science of Escape Rooms For the uninitiated, Ariel describes escape rooms as immersive experiences that require participants to “think differently, have some fun, and distract themselves from life and work.” Each room is themed, offering a variety of puzzles—riddles, observation challenges, decoding tasks—set within a compelling narrative. Worlds Away Escape boasts six different themed rooms, each designed to intrigue and challenge groups of friends, families, or coworkers. Team-building is a major draw, with companies frequently booking sessions to foster collaboration and communication. “It's a very interesting observational experience,” Ariel notes, describing how group dynamics play out in the rooms. Whether it's a family with established roles or coworkers discovering new sides of each other, the escape room becomes a microcosm of teamwork and leadership. Behind the Scenes: Creativity, Community, and Logistics Running an escape room is as much about creativity as it is about logistics. Ariel shares that she aims to change out one room per year, a process that involves not just designing new puzzles but also redecorating to create a fully immersive environment. The escape room community, she says, is highly collaborative, with owners sharing ideas and supporting each other through online forums and direct consultation. Reservations are essential—walk-ins are rare due to the need for staff preparation and room resets between groups. Pricing is tiered, with larger groups enjoying a lower per-person rate, making it accessible for everything from kids' birthday parties to corporate outings. After each session, staff meticulously reset the rooms to ensure every group gets a fresh experience. A Hub for Downtown Winchester Worlds Away Escape is more than just a business; it's a vibrant part of Old Town Winchester's evolving landscape. Brady highlights the importance of having interactive attractions downtown, especially during off-seasons or inclement weather. “It doesn't all have to just be pretty buildings or antique shops,” he says. “It's fun to have something very interactive on the mall.” The conversation also touches on the broader revitalization efforts in Old Town, from public art projects to seasonal festivals and community events. Worlds Away Escape fits seamlessly into this tapestry, offering both locals and visitors a reason to explore, connect, and return. Looking Ahead As the episode wraps up, Ariel and Brady share upcoming events and encourage listeners to stay engaged with downtown happenings. With a new room in the works and a calendar full of local festivities, Worlds Away Escape continues to unlock new adventures for Winchester's community. For those seeking a memorable experience—whether you're a puzzle enthusiast, a team leader, or just looking for something different—Worlds Away Escape is ready to challenge and delight. As Ariel puts it, it's a labor of love, and one that's helping to make Old Town Winchester a destination for discovery.

In this special preview from the Blue City Blues podcast, Sandeep and David explore the sprawling open-air drug market in Seattle's Little Saigon neighborhood, which resembles similar drug markets in poor, blue city neighborhoods across the US that have been overrun by the urban fentanyl and methamphetamine crises. Whether it's the Tenderloin in San Francisco, or Kensington in Philadelphia, or Skid Row or MacArthur Park in Los Angeles, the well intentioned, largely permissive policies towards hard drug use that in recent years took root in progressive-dominated bluer cities is coming under increasing challenge, and not just from Trump and the MAGA right.In the fall of 2024, Oregon rolled back its famous 2020 experiment in full drug decriminalization - as did Vancouver, B.C. earlier last year - after Portland neighborhoods like Old Town were overrun by addicts committing petty crimes to fuel their addictions. Recently installed San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie has embraced more aggressive law enforcement and treatment interventions, as part of a nascent shift heralded by the city's adoption of “Breaking the Cycle” and “Recovery First” policies.Our guide in Little Saigon is Andrew Constantino, a former heroin addict and outreach worker, whose recent Seattle Times op-ed, “Here's what I Learned about Addiction at 12th and Jackson,” has struck a nerve in Seattle's social services provider community. Constantino walks us through the streets of Seattle's most notorious open air drug market, where methamphetamine, fentanyl, and stolen goods are openly exchanged at all hours of the day and night, and explains why so many fentanyl users are stuck here on the streets, trapped in a cycle of rising hopelessness and despair – due to the fleeting, highly addictive nature of the drug.With a searing candor, disarming humor and electric cowboy green hair, Constantino rejects many prevailing progressive orthodoxies to offer his own, deeply compassionate yet sharply questioning perspective on addiction, personal autonomy, and opportunities for productive interventions on the mean streets of blue cities.Our editor is Quinn Waller. Our producer and editor for this episode was Jennie Cecil Moore. About Blue City BluesSubscribe to the Blue City Blues podcast here. Twenty years ago, Dan Savage encouraged progressives to move to blue cities to escape the reactionary politics of red places. And he got his wish. Over the last two decades, rural places have gotten redder and urban areas much bluer.America's bluest cities developed their own distinctive culture, politics and governance.
