Congratulations to our second son who has finished his Masters in Science in Architecture and Urban Design at UCLA. Off to his career in SoCal with a great firm, MVE + Partners in Irvine. Need something awesome designed?

The veterans have joined the rookies and we’re out running practice. Apologies to my office patients for any rescheduling.

Wyland fan for decades. The whaling walls are amazing artistic feats and should be preserved as long as Wyland can manage them. Sorry to see this happen, but let's hope FIFA makes it right.

An amazing example of modern medicine blending with sports. International level athlete. Suffers heart attack. Unconscious. Defibrillator/pacemaker does its thing. Walks off the field.

Risky business, but wonderful result. I'm sure the physician present was sweating bricks.

This is the second time the Danish midfielder has collapsed on the field in his career.

Aces fought back to take the game from Golden State. Jackie Young shooting well again. More rap rhymes

I'm seeing an unstated fear of using metal water bottles as weapons in the stands. Is there a precedent for this or just sign of the times? Given the size of the field and distance to players, it is less likely an issue of safety for the players akin to throwing water bottles at players in close proximity at NBA games. Plastic water bottles in the immediate timeframe is fine to refill, perhaps not over the long term as a substitute to "reusable" water bottles of different materials. Perhaps allow more than one?

FIFA has clarified what water bottles fans can take into World Cup 2026 stadiums, but the update has not stopped the backlash from supporters. The governing body now says fans attending matches in the USA and Canada can bring one soft, plastic, 20-ounce, 590ml, factory-sealed disposable water bottle...

Awww poor Elmo (from a former "tickle me Elmo" dad owner). Shout out for the Knicks....my first NBA team that called me to help them out at Summer League here in LV many years ago. Dr. Answorth Allen, Roger Hinds ATC and Anthony Goenaga ATC. The "team" keeping the team healthy over the years.

The lovable "Sesame Street" character didn't realize his well-meaning message would not go over well in New York.

LV Aces vs LA Sparks. Tight game. Pretty well attended despite concert across the way. Different crowd.

How I look under lights. I guess. Thanks to our product rep for this picture he took and plans to use at the office.
