Tony Williams, a pastor at Aphesis Apostolic Ministry in Fresno, believes the rapture is at hand and people need to prepare by accepting God. Although end-of-times prophecies have bubbled up from the Bible to Nostradamus, the current crop tracks to a pivotal date – 12 / 21 / 12 – on one ancient Mayan calendar. Dene McGriff wants to make sense out of the last days – the end of times....

Opinion page menu: Challenge the conventional

Before returning to The Bee in October, I worked for five months in the kitchen at Oliveto, an Italian restaurant in Oakland. The chefs there went to great lengths to understand their customers' preferences. But they also challenged them, from time to time, with new dishes and culinary approaches. It's a tricky balancing act. If your loyal clients love the halibut with aioli, then you probably should...

Claim to fame is our birthright

Well, this is it, my final column. I wanted to go out on a high note. Maybe do some hard-hitting investigative journalism; real Pulitzer Prize-worthy, in-your-face, busting-off-the-page, flying-dragon-kick-type stuff. But that’s a lot of work, and I’m fairly lazy, so that idea was quickly shelved. Besides, solving complex problems through unconventional wisdom seems to be my real...
