EDITOR:

Dizziness is a term to describe a sensation of lightheadedness, loss of balance, unsteadiness or faintness. Dizziness that causes a feeling that you or the room is moving or spinning is called vertigo. Although these symptoms may be incapacitating or disabling, dizziness is rarely a sign of a serious or life-threatening condition.

EDITOR,

I get asked sometimes how long various wines age and how you know when a wine is “peaking” or in its prime. The answer is somewhat complex, because different varietals and methods make for a vast variety of wines. Some wines should be drunk within a year of being made, and some can age for over a century.

Santa Cruz County parks are a well-loved resource for the community. I’m heartened to see children bicycling around the Covered Bridge Park and to see the hundreds of children playing baseball and climbing the “tower” at Highlands Park and thousands of people who enjoy visiting Quail Hollow Park.
