    UCLA men take on Cal looking to break losing streak
    UCLA men’s basketball head coach Mick Cronin sat lost for words. How could he describe his feelings of disappointment and frustration? He no longer could avoid the reality of the broken record his Bruins have become as of late.
    The team had allowed a two-point deficit to Stanford at halftime grow to a 74-59 loss. The defeat not only marked the first against the Cardinal at Pauley Pavilion in 15 years, but also gave the Bruins their first losing record since 2016 as they’ve lost six o

    Singer-songwriter Tiffany Darwish, better known as a pop hitmaker who went by just her first name, has been coming to the NAMM Show in Anaheim since she was 15 years old.
    Back in the late ’80s, when she was driving teenage girls to mass levels of hysteria in malls across America with a cover of “I Think We’re Alone Now,” she was also wise enough to network with the thousands of music merchants and artists who congregate each year during the annual NAMM trade show.
