To me, this quote by Robert Tizon sums up my feelings about what Saint Valentine's Day is all about. It is not only about the emotions of the heart, but also about the physical well-being of the heart, since without a healthy heart, one risks the possibility of not being able to love at all.
In light of the recent editorial in The Desert Sun condemning elected officials for having health insurance, I did some research regarding my own participation on the Mission Springs Water District board of directors.
I don't think these officials should receive the perks we read about. We need a political cartoon that shows them pulled up to the buffet table, bibs on, stuffing themselves on car washes, tickets, health care, etc. totally unaware that we see them for what they are. Sadly, either they just don't “get it” or they could not care less. I wish you would publish the gratuities for all of them throughout the valley. I commend Corky Larson.
I have been reading criticism of Haki Dervishi in your newspaper. You are focusing on the effect of homelessness rather than the cure.
Sidney Williams is curator of architecture and design at the Palm Springs Art Museum, where she is responsible for organizing and coordinating special exhibitions and installations of the permanent collection.
Politicized culture wars are debilitating because they almost always require partisans to denigrate the moral legitimacy of their opponents, and sometimes to deny their very humanity. It's often not enough to defeat a foe. Satisfaction only comes from an adversary's humiliation.
Roy's Desert Resource Center, which provides shelter and guidance for the homeless, is at a tipping point.
In its 2011 report, the U.S. Department of Energy projects that the renewable energy sector will nearly double its output from 2009 to 2035.
President Barack Obama recently called for a national focus on a long-term energy plan. The Clean Cities Program has long advocated for a solution to our dependence on OPEC oil and harmful vehicular emissions.
I personally contacted Haki Dervishi by telephone, regarding his selfless effort to assist the homeless in Indio.
I always thought I was a patient person, but after reading about the fight between the local hikers and the feds, I kind of realize now that I don't have that much patience after all.
Please give us more of William Edelen! I so enjoyed his Valley Voice column about Walter Annenberg.
It's great to finally get the pilots' perspective on the military jet noise issue at Palm Springs International Airport.
This nonsense began when a tourist wrote in about the military jets, interfering with her relaxing by her pool with a cocktail. That in itself tells us how self-absorbed this person is.
There certainly has been a lot of discussion on and opinions expressed about the color scheme of the new Saguaro Hotel.
We are failing our kids. That point was made indirectly by the Riverside County Superintendent of Schools this week during his state of education address.
Food trucks — which combine gourmet and street food into a unique and tasty cuisine — rolled into Palm Springs last weekend for the first festival of its kind in the Coachella Valley.
Speaking of signature events, the Tour de Palm Springs is likely under way as you read this today.
Tonight is a special night for the Desert AIDS Project, those it serves and those who help to keep it funded.
I read that a new no-right-turn sign to be visible from the signal light standard will take months to install.
Prominent neoconservative John R. Bolton and others intend to return to power by endorsing moderate Republican flip-flopper Willard Mitt Romney for president.
The Desert Sun admires the elected officials who serve on the myriad boards that lead our public agencies.
A vital part of a soldier's gear, along with his fighting equipment, is his personal belongings. These possessions are central to the maintenance of his daily existence. And so this story of the Army-issued duffel bag unfolds. It followed this soldier over two continents, staying close to him for some 50 years.
I was delighted to read the new USDA guidelines requiring schools to serve meals with twice as many fruits and vegetables, more whole grains, less sodium and fat, and no meat for breakfast. The guidelines were mandated by the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act signed by President Obama in December of 2010 and will go into effect with the next school year.
Love, love, love Indio's new logo! Way to go. It is really creative, fun and inspiring, just like Indio.
Let's hope Palm Desert doesn't drown from Mayor Pro Tem Bill Kroonen's deciding vote for J.W. Marriott Desert Springs' water park. I, like the majority of your poll responders, say no to using transient occupancy taxes to help hotels improve their property.
If kids can't get to school, they won't learn much. California Gov. Jerry Brown seems to have forgotten this, moving to end state funding for school buses.
Support of children's theater and exposure to the arts has often been seen as an educational luxury. The time has come for it to be viewed as an essential part of the American education experience.
