Holiday toy drives for San Diego families in need are in full swing, but one organization is having trouble getting donations.

Miguel Márquez San Juan, who ran Libros, Café y Jazz for 16 years, is remembered for creating a gathering place that blended literature, music and community in Tijuana.

Tacos El Franc, one of Tijuana’s most iconic and acclaimed taquerias, is opening second U.S. location in San Diego’s historic Gaslamp Quarter on Oct. 8, 2025. This new location follows the Baja-born brand’s first U.S. location at Westfield Plaza Bonita. While the Plaza Bonita location emulates the Tijuana original with table service dining, the Gaslamp Quarter location will offer a quicker, counter service, catering to on-the-go and late-night diners. Taqueros will work on charcoal grills to ensure steaks can be cooked in the traditional style – over mesquite – and the kitchen team will work in a brigade system, with individual taqueros manning the disco, steamer, and trompo. The new location will serve up staples like tacos de adobada, asada, cabeza, suadero, and tripa, plus 32oz Caguamas and Tacos El Franc USA’s signature San Diego-inspired menu item: beef tallow fries served with a variety of proteins. Tacos El Franc Gaslamp Quarter will open to the public at 4 p.m. on Oct. 8, 2025, and is located at 528 5th Ave, San Diego, CA 92101.

The super-producer whose beats moved the boundaries of Top 40 radio is chasing a new revolution: digital superstars and the erasure of artistic process as we know it.

Co-presented by The House of Ukraine. Keeping schools open in Ukraine is an attempt to recreate at least some of the normal life they had before the war — until February 24, 2022 (and in some regions even earlier, in 2014). Without interviews, narration and reenactments, "Timestamp" provides an insight into how the war is affecting the daily lives of students and teachers. The film has a mosaic-like structure: it explores how a school functions in-person and online in these terrible times, both on and off the frontline, how day-to-day life is intertwined with constant danger.
