CVHS Grad To Host Nationwide MSNBC Show
By Robert Souza

If you’re watching the Democratic National Convention on MSNBC this week, you’re likely to see political commentator Rachel Maddow, who grew up in Castro Valley.

“Rachel has, and always had, tremendous energy,” said her mom, Castro Valley resident Elaine Maddow in an interview at The Forum office Friday. “We keep saying to ourselves who is that kid and where did she come from?”

Elaine and Rachel’s Father Robert both agree it is somewhat surreal to see their daughter on national television. “It’s all incredible, and we are very proud of her,” said Robert.

By Amber Simons
About a hundred people show up nightly for events at the Castro Village Bowl, says employee Jamie Gorham. Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights are the busiest.

Volvo S80 Blends Technology, Tradition
By Steve Schaefer
Volvo’s flagship sedan, the S80, got redone for the 2007 model year, but it took until now to get a date with one — a beautiful 2008 model. It was worth the wait.

By now, the Volvo-as-box image has faded from public perception. When the first S80 arrived years ago, it was a revolution, with a return to traditional “shoulders” but otherwise a modern, even daring, approach to sedan design, with a laid-back rear window, tapered rear deck and tucked-in side panels. The blunt, medallion-wearing grille was squeezed down to a slender strip. The same fresh approach was applied to the interior, as well.

By Darien Behravan, D.O.
Because persistent pain is a common experience among older adults, it is often dismissed as a normal part of aging. As the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) points out, however, pain is neither normal nor healthy, and complaints about pain should never be minimized or passively accepted.
