Viviana Torres stared down death in 2007. She was 23 years old. Today, she embraces life, and has recruited her co-workers to do the same.

For most of Sunday, Ian Poulter and Paul Casey turned Dove Mountain into a version of the All England Club.

Margie Bowman can’t forget Sept. 22, 2006, when her regular mammogram detected every woman’s fear — breast cancer.

Canyon Del Oro High School's Pink Dorados - a group that raises money to promote breast cancer awareness - is in need of more volunteer members and donations!

Released March 1 1971, English Progressive Rock band Pink Floyd have pushed the boundaries of music to uncharted waters. Just passing the album's 40 year anniversary, the legacy of The Dark Side of the Moon lives on interestingly enough in much of today's youth and modern culture. The way that the band ties the concept and the music together in unison makes for a mesmerizing hypnotic effect that sends the listener into a whirlpool of emotions. Never before has a band been able to send such a clear message to the listener depicting the reality of life as we know it. Darkside asks the questions that we all face, and documents the lifecycle of the human being from life till death. The clarity of the lyrics is striking, but at the same time vague enough for the listener to come to his own interpretations and tie it to his own life. In this week's feature of Music Landscape, I will be reviewing one of progressive rock's finest masterpieces, Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon.

The CDO Girls Softball Team will hold their annual Breast Cancer Awareness Game this Thursday March 15 at CDO's Gale Bundrick-Clark Enterline Field at 4 p.m. versus Vista Grande High School. 

Each year, October seems to bring an abundance of pink on athletes, in commercials and everywhere you look. All this pink is about it being Breast Cancer Awareness month. While I am glad there is a color and a huge showing of support for such an important cause, I wish it was more about the issues of pushing preventative measures to save lives, shedding light on more than just one form of cancer or disease impacting women each and every day, than just about a football player wearing pink socks or a pink towel to show they care about a cause.

Over the last several weeks since The Explorer announced its Paint the Desert Pink special section, the community has opened up, telling stories of inspiration, courage and strength.
