(July 16, 2024) Longtime friends and musical partners McKenzie & Gardiner honed their recording chops amidst the late 1970s and early ‘80s rise of Brit-funk bands like Light of the World, Central Line, and Hi Tension. Although the pair made some noise in 1983 through a sterling collaboration with a then-unknown Jaki Graham entitled “From Time,” business roadblocks prevented much of their subsequent output from being heard outside of small industry circles.

Whatever your religious affiliation, it is widely accepted by historians that Jesus, the man, did exist. However, what hasn't been agreed upon is what Jesus looked like. As a Galilean man who was born and raised in the Middle East, one would logically assume that the common first guess as to his appearance would align with that of a typical Middle Eastern man of his time. Surprisingly, this has not been the case.

Western bluebirds are among the most beautiful birds in Alameda. The male is intensely blue with bronze highlights and the female is equally beautiful, with more subtle coloration. Western bluebirds are now quite common in open-space areas of the city, but that was not always the case. Before 2010 they were rarely seen here, and for a few years after that they were seen only in winter around Crown Beach , traveling elsewhere to nest during spring.
