This collection is not for every senior art lover, especially those who revere the traditional masters of past art history. When wandering the halls and rooms of the SDMCA, you won't see any works by Michelangelo, Da Vinci, David, Rembrandt, Whistler, Goya or others of the old schools.
The SDMCA's collection mostly contains art produced since 1950. It includes such popular artists as Johns, Duchamp, Warhol, Lichtenstein, Calder, Picasso, Chagall, Pollock, Rauschenberg and many newer painters, sculptors and photographers.

Tips On How To Be A Comfy In-Flight Senior Snoozer |

Guest Correspondent Maria DeM, Los Angeles CA: We often go red eye, flights that take off after 9 pm. It’s cheaper, better onboard seating is available, and airports are much less crowded. Also, road traffic to and from the airport is much lighter.
We find ways to sleep during flights. Our most frequent trips, about twice a month, are one-hour hops between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. We also take six-hour flights cross country several times a year, and about once a year an eight-hour-plus journey to Europe, Asia or South America.

Airport Security Eyes Are Always Watching You |
|
|
|
Wandering, sitting, shopping or waiting in line, no matter where you are and what you're doing in most air terminals, you can be assured that at least one camera sees you. On a recent arrival to check in for a flight out of Las Vegas, we stopped just inside the terminal doors to get our bearings.
As we were taking out the necessary documents, we noticed a stack of three or four suitcases just a few feet away. At that instant, two airport cops and a big German Shepherd dog came rushing over. At first we thought they were after us, but they passed and swooped up the unattended bags. Dog and handlers were gone up the nearby escalator before we could say or do anything.

Cruise Ships Must Report Crimes Committed At Sea |
|
|
|
While very rare, it happens. Jewelry disappears from the cabin. A crew member illegally uses a stolen credit card. American cruise ship passengers may experience theft, assault and more serious crimes. Often, because the offenses happened in mid-ocean or foreign ports, cruise lines haven’t reported them to U.S. authorities.
The Department of Transportation’s Federal Maritime Commission recently issued orders to all passenger ships that sail to and from U.S. ports. Officials of the lines are required to make public any crimes against passengers. The responsibility is to give total information all incidents to the FBI.
If, while on a cruise, you suspect, experience or witness a crime, be sure your report to the ship’s officers is forwarded to the proper U.S. authorities.
