A sobriety/drivers license checkpoint will be conducted on Saturday, February 9, in the 3200 block of Santa Monica Boulevard, announced the Santa Monica Police Department. SMPD officers will be contacting drivers at that time and place to confirm their sobriety and drivers license status.

Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. This is the third of several checkpoints to be conducted over the next year under the grant.

The Santa Monica Police Department reminds drivers if you plan on drinking have a designated driver or call a cab.

OpEd: Here Comes the Sun:

OpEd: Anyone from my generation might express a warm feeling for George Harrison’s song “Here Comes the Sun.” First of all, it’s a tune from the “quiet Beatle” that is in many ways perfect in its simplicity: It’s been a long cold lonely winter and now… here comes the sun. The sun in the song is the arrival of better days and even a new clarity about whatever it is that has been troubling you and making you feel blue; perhaps clearing away a fog of depression, making things warm and right again.
