  • NCFPD firefighters train for rope rescues

    Kim Harris, Managing Editor|Updated Jun 19, 2020

    North County Fire Protection District firefighters made their way to a hilltop, Thursday, June 11, quickly assembling the department's new Arizona Vortex and preparing to lower firefighter Matt Anderson to perform a technical rope rescue of a victim located down the steep hillside. To those observing, the scenario on private property on Monserate Place appeared to be very real that day, but in reality, it was actually a quarterly training on High Angle Rope Rescue, a high risk...

The White Rainbow Project is an outreach to women of India who are stigmatized by widowhood. These women are not only suffering the loss of a spouse but also have lost their basic human rights a...

  • Advice for fathers for Father's Day

    Dr. Rick Koole, LifePointe Church|Updated Jun 18, 2020

    Mrs. John B. Dodd of Washington State, who first proposed the idea of a Father’s Day in 1909, wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart. Smart, a Civil War veteran, was widowed when his wife, Dodd’s mother, died in childbirth with their sixth child. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children alone on a rural farm in eastern Washington State. It was after Dodd became an adult that she realized the strength and selflessness her father had sho...

  • Real Estate Round-Up: Keeping it positive

    Kim Murphy, Murphy and Murphy Southern California Realty|Updated Jun 18, 2020

    Is anyone else sick and tired of all the negative? I am. If you are on social media or watch local or cable news, you are probably feeling like I am, which is “not myself.” I am normally an upbeat person, who finds the good in most situations. I think back to my initial response to the sequester we were being required to participate in. I pointed out all the positive aspects of spending more time with your family, your pets and in your home. The time at home provided an opp... Full story

  • Re: 'A call for Americans to get a backbone and stand up' [Village News, Letter, 6/4/20]

    Updated Jun 18, 2020

    Dear Ms. Miller, I have a backbone and will stand up to people like you. Oh sure, you want to call me hateful, vile, belligerent, corrupt, a liar and a bully – all your words – because I disagree with you. You don’t know me, and I don’t want to know any more about you. You sure like to poke the bear and when someone stands up to you, you go on the attack just like President Donald Trump and his daily meltdowns. He is the one who bullies and attacks, but then you don’t see that do you? He has not made America great; he has div... Full story

  • America is full of good people who mean well and want justice

    Julie Reeder, Publisher|Updated Jun 18, 2020

    Our country is not perfect, however when we as a culture or a society see something unjust, we work hard to fix it. We did it with slavery, child labor, civil rights and women’s rights to name a few. This is why the whole country was united in the belief that George Floyd’s death was criminal. Everyone who saw that video was horrified. Almost every police officer agreed according to published news reports. After that, people of all ages, races and backgrounds wanted to ris... Full story

  • Re: 'Will rioters listen to George Floyd's brother?' [Village News, Coonradt Letter, 6/11/20]

    Updated Jun 18, 2020

    Well, thanks for the laugh. I really did appreciate that. I am a 70-year-old black man, and I have not suffered 400 years of anything. All of you guilty white people should realize you are not helping this situation by accepting responsibility for what happened 400 years ago. I am not helpless, weak or discriminated against. I do not see police discrimination as serious of a problem as the gang warfare going on now. We need to arrest the looters, charge the organizers for conspiracy to loot and burn, release America from... Full story

  • Employment department needs help

    Assemblymember Marie Waldron, Special to Valley News|Updated Jun 18, 2020

    In March, our economy slammed on the brakes and thousands were thrown out of work. Millions filed for unemployment insurance. The Employment Development Department, known as EDD, has processed $26 billion in benefits over 12 weeks, versus $22 billion during the entire recession of 2008. It amounts to 14% of all claims filed nationally. Even so, many unemployed workers have run into problems that have delayed payments for weeks or even months. The deluge of claims overwhelmed... Full story

    Updated Jun 18, 2020

    Dr. James Veltmeyer’s article slamming face masks made me wonder why he chose to politicize the issue, when the American Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons long ago determined the benefits of using face coverings outweigh the risks. Karen Swanson... Full story

  • The badge represents thousands of good men and women

    Updated Jun 18, 2020

    The discouragement on my son’s face yesterday brought me to tears. The career he has been so proud to be part of he now feels like no one cares, he’s not just unwanted or unappreciated, but hated. He blocked roads for two nights so that protesters could march safely. He was still cussed at and disrespected, yet he is doing his job making sure everyone is protected. He and his brothers and sisters of blue have been defunded and hated for a few horrible officers who now seem to represent them all. We need to back the badge as... Full story

  • To the graduates of 2020

    Updated Jun 18, 2020

    We are proud of you, and so should you be of yourselves. High school graduation reflects your accomplishment following 12 years of hard work, perseverance, as well as overcoming many challenges, and at times setbacks, as none of us are able to display strengths in every academic arena. Equally, there have been joys in friendships and, at times, disappointments in this important aspect of your educational experience. And some may have had additional challenges and burdens as well to overcome – whether it be financial h... Full story

  • Dear Ms Reeder

    Updated Jun 18, 2020

    As a subscriber of the Village News for years I am extremely pleased with the direction you have taken this paper. I started taking the Village News for local updates and the Sheriff’s Log. But since the move into a more widely encompassing platform, I am thrilled with the balance of local, state and national news. I find it to be fair and balanced, a refresher from years of the brutal, extremely left leaning Union Tribune which I finally canceled. Thanks for introducing me to the Epoch Times. I find it to be a much better s... Full story

  • Making more progress

    Supervisor Jim Desmond, 5th District|Updated Jun 18, 2020

    Last week, I took a tour of Fit Athletic and Gym, which is the largest privately owned gym in San Diego. Fit opened their doors for the first time in 90 days June 15. While it’s long overdue, I’m glad to see Fit and other local businesses are finally reopening. I want to tell all the business owners, all the employees and everyone who’s struggled over the last three months, thank you. Thank you for being patient, thank you for submitting safety business proposals and thank... Full story

    Updated Jun 18, 2020

    Thank you, Julie for such a well-researched opinion article. There are several prominent black men who agree, but the MSN does everything they can to suppress their common sense views. Keep up the good work, never kneel or apologize for an opinion that may not be popular at the moment. James Boyd... Full story
