2. They were the original alarm clock. They crowed the start of the day. Today, they are considered to be a nuisance. If you are bothered by your neighbor's illegal rooster, it may take some time before law enforcement springs into action. For those willing to give up their roosters, there are organizations, such as Rescue Roos, that will take care of them for you. To learn more: Click into parenthesis, then click the link.

3. Have a student in San Diego Mesa College? If so, there is reason to be proud! The college has been named a Fulbright Top Producing Institution in the associate degree category. "Mesa College is proud of its legacy of Fulbright Scholars and welcomes this important recognition," stated Dr. Pamela T. Luster, president of Mesa College. The Fulbright program participants — chosen for academic merit and leadership potential — are provided with an opportunity to exchange ideas and contribute to finding solutions to issues affecting everyone.
