Frank Talk for Seniors
Frank Newton

Our community is so scenic and serene, you might think it's safe as well. But it's foolhardy to imagine that bad things don't happen here, even to people who generally are peaceable and harmless -- that is, the elderly and dependent adults. Yes, even in idyllic Santa Barbara, these gentle souls are preyed on, abused and neglected.

It hurts to be a runnerup, and never more so than last weekend for the UCSB softball team.

Mother's Day: In the feminista days of my youth (college in the 1960s), I took up the sword of the feminist movement's message that marriage and mothering were yokes of oppression.
