Griffith Observatory Debuts 1st Planetarium Show in 10+ Yrs
07.08.22
Just in time for summer blockbuster season, Signs of Life (see the trailer HERE), the first signature production to be created exclusively for the Samuel Oschin Planetarium at Griffith Observatory in more than a decade, makes its official debut to the public.
Signs of Life is an astronomical detective story that propels visitors to uncover what it took to put life in the universe. Earth is the launchpad to Mars, the moons of Jupiter and Saturn, and planets beyond our Milky Way Galaxy in a search for answers to the mysteries that captivate our imagination.
Produced jointly by Griffith Observatory, Griffith Observatory Foundation and by a team of the world’s top artists, scientists, and astronomers, this award-winning live show meets Hollywood production standards and storytelling priorities. Signs of Life is not a lecture or a movie but a singular, live theatrical production in the most technically complex theater in southern California – the Samuel Oschin Planetarium.

High Tech Smart Fitness Studio Opens in Newport Beach
07.08.22
Newport Beach resident Izabela Webber just opened her first Exercise Coach location at Corporate Plaza in Newport Beach and plans to open at least three locations in the next few years.
The “Smart Fitness Studio” franchise specializes in bio-adaptive, robotic exercise equipment that provides a customized, efficient workout. The Exercise Coach is now considered a “smart” fitness studio for yet another reason: its safe and private atmosphere.
Outfitted with high-tech computerized machines instead of traditional equipment, The Exercise Coach’s personalized programs are optimized for efficiency.
Its robotic exercise technology is combined with the guidance of certified coaches to provide a unique, comprehensive approach to fitness designed to be a perfect fit for anyone, regardless of current fitness levels.
The Exercise Coach uses its technology to capture the more reluctant exercise consumer — people who are either too busy to spend a great deal of time at the gym, dislike the gym scene, and/or are afraid of injuring themselves. It offers privacy, convenience, personalization, efficiency, and guidance to change the quality of life for people less familiar with fitness successes.
Open 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday to Friday; 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday. Closed Sunday.
2 Corporate Plaza Drive, Suite 230, in Newport Beach. 949.994.9001
