Friday, January 04, 2013 7:51 AM
Shawnette Somner: We have two ears and one mouth — it's time to stop and take time to listen to what others have to say.
What have you learned from the past year?
Friday, December 28, 2012 7:24 AM
Shawnette Somner: It always amazes me how the end of a year causes us to reflect upon all the things that have happened and forces us to make decisions on how we might choose to do things differently in the upcoming year.
Savour the time with your family

The power of music
Friday, November 16, 2012 8:23 AM

Hispanic residents display a warm sense of community
Wednesday, November 14, 2012 7:23 AM
Shawnette Somner: It was clearly evident from the Celebremos de dia de la Hispanidad event that those who are residing on our shores are a tight knit community. They seem to love each other and look out for each other.
