California, tis the time to change the clocks

Tonight we turn our clocks back an hour as Daylight Savings Time comes to an end. In 1784, Benjamin Franklin wrote a satirical essay in The Journal of Paris that formed some of the basis of Daylight Savings Time. He said that Parisians could save money on candle by getting up earlier, and utilizing the morning light. It wasn’t until World War I that Daylight Savings Time became a reality – in…

🌟Paul Tully's 24-year sobriety journey. He describes how he was at a crossroads, doing dead-end jobs and raising a family, which drove him to join the military. Despite having to reduce over 100 pounds to qualify, he was able to join the military. After leaving the military, he experienced obstacles owing to his criminal record, which hampered his career chances until he met a caring judge who wiped his record and recognized his devotion to the country. 🛤️

🌟Paul Tully's path from addiction to recovery, military service to expungement, and dead-end professions to realizing his passion for acting is a moving story of change and self-discovery. His narrative demonstrates the value of second chances, the significance of helpful personalities like sympathetic judges, and the ability of individuals to achieve fulfillment and purpose later in life despite tremendous hurdles. 👏

WIP Fanfictions:

Masterlist of the seven fanfictions I’m currently writing. Will be updated as progress is made!!

To see my published fanfictions, go here to my AO3

Green fics are being actively worked on while orange fics are touched less consistently. Blue are actively being published and are a priority.

.

1) Thorin Oakenshield x Bilbo Baggins - Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit - Cultural differences being abound as an innocent Hobbit is corrupted by our favorite dwarven king. (NSFW, gay, corruption kink)

2) Harry Potter x Draco Malfoy - Harry Potter book and movie franchises - An entire fucking rewrite of the book series where Harry is far more proactive and more of a BAMF in trying to not only thwart, but also go on the offense in the war between good and evil, as well as his life after. (NSFW, gay, portrayals of addiction, graphic violence, death and murder (but it’s only the bad guys cause I’m only capable of writing happy endings))

3) Julian Bashir x Elim Garak - Star Trek: Deep Space 9 - post-Dominion war ... it's incredibly fucking complicated. Nearly a decade ago, Julian Bashir, along with 12 other augmented children were rescued from a secret base on an asteroid, rehabilitated, and given the chance at real lives. When Dr. Zimmerman boards the DS9 having already realized Julian is an augment, Starfleet creates the lie that it was done by his parents in order to save face for the fact that they knew Julian was an augment before he ever even enrolled at the academy. But when the truth begins to come out, Garak is quite fascinated by just how good a liar Julian actually is.

4) Reader x Dr. T’Ana - Star Trek: Lower Decks - A dying cryo-ship is stumbled upon by the USS: Cerritos with only a single human aboard. Dr. T’Ana finds herself suspicious of the woman born four hundred years ago as her crumbling relationship with Shaxs leads her to a queer crisis.

5) Reader x Cicero - Elder Scrolls X: Skyrim - After the final battle against Alduin, something went wrong. Very wrong. The Dragonborn should not have been able to absorb Alduin’s soul. Yet, she did. What happens when the souls of a Dragonborn and a demigod combine?

6) Reader x Asterion - Baldur’s Gate III - The Nautiloid slipped from world to world, dimension to dimension, and universe to universe with all the ease of a cockroach squirming under a door. Until, shortly before the events leading to its crash, it crashed through the realm of the goddess of dreams, accidentally taking the goddess and resetting her to a weakened mortal form.

7) Sam x Gabriel - Supernatural - After Jack resets the world, all seems normal. Dangers are still abound, but not nearly as serious as they once were. A powerful mage trying to find eternal youth has popped up on the Winchester’s radar, but after investigating and finding the perp, Sam is hit with the interrupted magic ritual and is reverted back to who he was in his college days. Unfortunately for him, a certain trickster archangel was also resurrected by Jack. Even more unfortunate, Sam was quite the asshole in college. Just the kind that Gabriel had always taken a particular joy in humbling.

Glenn Thompkins received the Glenn Davis Award for high school football excellence

Glenn Thompkins, the star quarterback of Rialto Eisenhower High, made headlines once again as he was honored with the prestigious Glenn Davis Award for his outstanding performance in Southern California's high school football scene. Just two days after leading his team to victory in the Southern Section Division I championship, Thompkins received this coveted award during a ceremony held in Riverside.

Named after the esteemed Heisman Trophy winner who attended Army and Bonita High in La Verne, the Glenn Davis Award is presented annually by The Times. It serves as a testament to the remarkable talent and dedication demonstrated by high school football players in the region.

At the age of 17, Thompkins, a three-year starter for the Eagles, showcased his versatility and prowess on the field throughout the season. With an impressive 14-0 record under his leadership, the team secured their championship title by defeating Santa Ana Mater Dei with a resounding score of 56-3 at Anaheim Stadium. In this decisive game, Thompkins exhibited his multifaceted skill set by throwing for 174 yards and three touchdowns, along with rushing for 71 yards and an additional touchdown. Not content with just offensive contributions, he also made significant defensive plays, breaking up several passes and returning two punts.

Tom Hoak, Eisenhower’s coach, attributed the team's undefeated season to Thompkins, emphasizing his versatility and ability to excel in any position on the field. Standing at 5 feet 9 inches and weighing 163 pounds, Thompkins amassed impressive statistics throughout the season, passing for 1,214 yards and rushing for 717. Additionally, he showcased his defensive prowess by starting in various positions, including inside linebacker and end.

Thompkins' remarkable performance on the field has garnered attention from numerous colleges and universities, with notable institutions such as Notre Dame, Oklahoma, and Kansas vying for his talents. However, it is widely anticipated that Thompkins will sign with UCLA, where he is expected to continue his football career at the collegiate level.

Among other notable finalists for the Glenn Davis Award were quarterback Keith Smith of Newbury Park and tight end/linebacker Tony Gonzalez of Huntington Beach. The Times also recognized outstanding players and coaches from various circulation regions, highlighting their contributions to high school football:

In the Central City region, honorees included Norman Ysaguirre from Dorsey High (lineman), William Yates from Fremont High (back), and Taja Rodisha from Fremont High (coach).

The Inland Empire region featured standout players such as Coleman Johnson from Riverside Poly (lineman) and Gary Campbell from Norco High (coach).

Orange County's honorees included Tony Gonzalez from Huntington Beach High (lineman), Chris Draft from Placentia Valencia High (back), and Myron Miller from Costa Mesa High (coach).

San Fernando Valley recognized players like Keith Schiele from Lancaster Antelope Valley High (lineman), Mike Kocicka from Newhall Hart High (back), and Richard Fong from Panorama City St. Genevieve High (coach).

The San Gabriel Valley region celebrated talents such as Pene Talamaivao from Pomona Ganesha High (lineman), Miguel Meriwether from West Covina High (back), and Bob Mount from West Covina High (coach).

South Bay's standout players included John Welbourn from Palos Verdes Peninsula High (lineman), Omarr Morgan from Hawthorne High (back), and Don Morrow from Manhattan Beach Mira Costa High (coach).

South Coast region recognized talents like Brandon Whiting from Long Beach Poly High (lineman), Danjuan McGee from Long Beach Poly High (back), and Willie Donerson from Compton Dominguez High (coach).

Southeast region honored players such as Jerry Lemon from La Mirada High (lineman), Greg Ford from Whittier High (back), and Darrell Walsh from Cerritos Gahr High (coach).

Ventura region celebrated players like Leodes Van Buren from Newbury Park High (lineman), Keith Smith from Newbury Park High (back), and George Hurley from Newbury Park High (coach).

Westside's standout players included Matt Higgins from Playa del Rey St. Bernard High (lineman), Seka Edwards from Westchester High (back), and Marshall Jones from L.A. University High (coach).

Glenn Thompkins' remarkable journey from leading his team to victory on the field to receiving the prestigious Glenn Davis Award exemplifies the dedication, skill, and passion that define high school football in Southern California. His achievements serve as an inspiration to aspiring athletes and a testament to the enduring spirit of the sport.

Education

From Classroom to Campus: Crawford High School’s New Year Leads a New Way

San Diego Unified School District officials, students, and their colt mascot rang in the new school year at Crawford High School in the El Cerritos community Monday morning.

The August 12th date might seem earlier than usual. According to Dr. Erin Richison, SDUSD Area Superintendent of High Schools, this is a decision three years in the making. By moving up the academic calendar to start earlier, the district hopes to support students who are dual-enrolled in high school and at neighboring colleges. The calendar will continue to include 180 school days, but now provide more instructional time before spring assessments, including SAT and Advanced Placement exams.

This is just one way Crawford High School plans to prepare its students to transition out of high school. This new school year comes with new career pathway programs and a new guaranteed enrollment agreement with California State University San Marcos.

The new admission agreement, similar to Sweetwater Union High School District’s with San Diego State University, guarantees admission for eligible high school graduates and will provide college prep opportunities starting in middle school. For the diverse community Crawford High serves, the admission will be a game-changer for students.

“A lot of immigrant families find that Crawford is home to their student. They feel very welcome and included that they belong here. But a part of that, and because 40 different countries are represented… 35 languages, 72 dialects, some things do get lost in translation, as it relates to how to apply for college, how to pay for college,” said Dr. Reashon Villery, principal at Crawford High School.

“We want our students to know that not only can you get accepted into college and have automatic acceptance, but also just a variety of options with financial aid.”

Crawford’s students will also have an array of programs to join this year. The newest additions are Emergency Medical Technician pathway and a swim class for students, along with the existing law academy, automotive class, and health career pathway with Rady Children’s Hospital.

Through the EMT pathway, students can chose an alternative to a traditional four-year education after high school and still gain access to medical careers. The goal is that by the end of high school, students will either gain a certificate or enough college credit to get started in an EMT career.

The swim class, aside from teaching students water safety and offering a new activity, holds the opportunity to become a junior lifeguard after the 24-week class.

At the leading edge of high school programs is the Crawford Academy of Law, which has been established since 2011. Through a state grant, students in their sophomore through senior years can learn about careers in the legal field and gain work experience from courts and law firms.

One of the course’s highlights is the classroom lined with wooden podiums with a judge and jury stand, which simulates a real courtroom. Since the first time since the pandemic began, students will work with the newly reinstated San Diego Teen Court to be trained in restorative justice using real cases with youth offenders. Students will receive mentoring from a judge or an attorney who will supervise as students take charge in questioning and decisions, says program coordinator Ray Beattie.

Aside from the hands-on experience, students benefit from the Crawford Academy of Law Foundation, which gives scholarship money to those who participate in mock trials, complete the attorney program, and are aspiring leaders. According to Beattie, the foundation awarded around $20,000 in scholarships to sophomores, juniors, and seniors at the Academy Awards in May.

Crawford High School principal Reashon Villery said that she is proud to be part of the high school’s vision.

“There are a lot of great programs here at Crawford, in addition to the sports, in addition to all of the wonderful clubs, I just feel honored to be blessed to be leading such a beautiful school community,” said Villery. *Reposted article from the Times of SD by Hannah Ramirez on August 12, 2024

He rose to fame in 2005 following the success of his major-label debut album The Documentary, and found continued success with its 2006 follow-up Doctor’s Advocate. The former album became certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.

He was considered to be a driving force in the return of West Coast hip hop into the mainstream, and competing with many of his East Coast counterparts. He was placed into G-Unit by Dr. Dre and Interscope Records co-founder Jimmy Iovine. He left Aftermath and signed with Geffen.

RaeAnn Garcia

1. Name, Year, Major, and Hometown

My name is RaeAnn Garcia, I'm a 2nd year Biological Sciences major from Cerritos, California

2. What’s your roman empire?

My roman empire is dessert. I think about sweets 24/7. (I’m borderline pre-diabetic)

3. What is the best compliment you have ever received?

The best compliment I have ever received was when someone told me they could spend 24/7 with me and not get bored.

4. If your life was a movie what genre would it be (comedy, horror, drama, etc.) and what actor would play you?

If my life was a movie it would be a mix of comedy and drama. I would want Kevin Hart to play me.

5. What is something on your college bucket list?

One thing on my college bucket list is to learn how to spike in volleyball.

6. What’s your guilty pleasure? (song, movie, food etc.)

My guilty pleasure is that I love refrigerated pickles straight from the jar.

7. What are your bad habits?

One bad habit is that I crave candy every second of the day and I need to have something sweet after every meal.

8. What are your favorite song lyrics?

My favorite song lyrics are “I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend” Jason Mraz

9. Defend your unpopular opinion/ hot take

It’s nasty to drink water without ice. I’d have to be extremely dehydrated to drink room temperature water.

10. Describe a time where you had to step up and be a leader?

There have been a few instances where I would step in to be a leader but one situation that always seems to persist is group projects. In group projects and presentations during high school and college, I usually liked to step up and take the role as the leader of the group. I would try to make sure everyone is doing their part and that we are able to finish the assignment on time without any complications or errors. I tend to unintentionally take this role a lot when it comes to projects because I just want to ensure that we get a good grade and that everyone that is a part of the group is participating.  There are some cases where one person will end up doing all the work by themselves and everyone else just gets to write their name on it and take credit. So when it comes to it, I am almost always willing to step in and get the job done for the sake of the team. I prefer things to be fair and not one sided. However, as a leader I always aim to not be controlling or bossy because I want to be a person that people are comfortable with following. If you are disliked, then people will tend to not listen to what you have to say and end up doing their own thing. So although I may sometimes step in and take charge, I make sure to not seem like the “boss.”
