When the sun comes out, the kids go out to enjoy it. It’s important to remember that in addition to the helmets and life jackets, you need to protect their skin as well, even on cloudy days.

What a great relief it is to know “the doctor is in.” The hospitalist, that is, when an emergency arises.
The “hospitalist” is a physician whose practice is dedicated entirely to the care of hospitalized patients. Not all hospitals offer such care, but Valley Medical Center recognizes the immediate benefit to both patients and doctors, and has expanded the presence of hospitalists to meet increasing demand for their services.
Anyone that appreciates a cross between soothing soul music and rock would agree that Aaron Hiebert is an astoundingly talented soul. From his high school band, to his solo side project Andover Parkway, Hiebert mesmerizes those he performs for with his vicious and yet relaxing guitar playing. The band Hiebert has been with since high school, Sub-Motive, is still together and strong. They improve more and more each performance, recently winning a battle of the bands competition. Lead vocalist and bassist Josiah Bogle along with drummer and pianist Jason Edwards do not criticize Hiebert for making a solo album, they’ve had their own side projects as well, and in fact they offered him their assistance. On his new album, “A Final Dream,” Hiebert plays guitar, bass, piano and sings. The album features Edwards on keys and drums with Bogle on bass and the occasional back up vocal.
