Cauliflower is a picturesque and nourishing vegetable. Cooked with a good sauce and placed in a nice bowl, it is as sumptuous as it is full of essential nutrients.
Commentary: Frank Noto
I was a supporter of keeping the Upper Great Highway (UGH) open to cars. While I disagreed with Supervisor Joel Engardio on this one issue, we cannot expect to agree with our elected representatives 100% of the time. That’s why I oppose recalling Supervisor Joel Engardio.
Commentary: Richard Corriea
For almost a year I’ve been in conversations and debates concerning how the safety and quality of neighborhood life impacts of closing the Upper Great Highway (UGH), and the need for mitigation, planning and financing before any closure.

Public school administrators are facing tough budget decisions this year. I’ve heard from many anxious parents who are concerned about the state of our public school system.

Watching the 28-minute, 10-screen film/art installation, “Lessons of the Hour,” by British artist/filmmaker Sir Issac Julien, is not as overwhelming as one might think.

@andeverything__nice: Step Into a Sunset Spring Morning
When you step into DamnFine Coffee Co., the first couple of things you notice are the beautiful photographs on the wall and kind employees who work behind the counter, always greeting customer with a smiling face. In addition to delicious coffee – try the iced vanilla-bean-paste latte – the shop also specializes in food to go; the pizza toast and salted chocolate chip cookie are crowd favorites.
Commentary: Richie Greenberg
The practice of offering low-income discounts on speeding ticket fines is a blatant violation of justice, undermining the very principles that should govern our legal system.
