Movie Review: James Bond fights ‘Spectre’ in Daniel Craig’s fourth 007 caper
Arguably the best thing about “Spectre” is that Daniel Craig is still James Bond in it. On the other side of that coin, perhaps the worst thing about the 2015 adventure is that it spends a little too much time looking backward rather than forward. Longtime Bond fans may be a little too critical of these movies, but too often, “Spectre” — which MGM+ shows Monday, July 22, with MGM+...

National news has you feeling anxious? Join the club
Try looking up the term “community anxiety” and you’ll have trouble pinning down a definition. People who see a psychiatrist might get a quizzical look if they ask about it. The term doesn’t appear in the DSM-5, also known as the all-important “The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition.” But after the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump on Saturday, July 13, and in the midst of one of the most vitriol-filled and impactful elections in memory, a lot of people...
A Portland State University study upends assumptions about Measure 110 impacts

The experts at LawnLove.com, a lawn care and landscaping resource, say grass needs between 1 and 1 1⁄2 inches of water a week. Precipitation often...
Watch out for these allergy triggers
