Palm Springs Desert Guide for May 2011 calendar events, attractions, golf, shopping and hotels.

	Palm Desert’s Desert Willow Wine Tasting Event Celebrates Coachella Valley Mothers On Mother’s Day Weekend, Desert Willow Golf Resort in Palm Desert invites you to “The Mother of All Wine Tastings,” featuring wines from more than 50 wineries.
	Flowers for the Fallen By Mona de Crinis This month, the sky blooms red, white, and blue as flowers rain down on the upturned faces of patriotic men, women, and children during Palm Springs Air Museum’s annual Memorial Day celebration.
	Horoscope - May 2011 BY SHERRYL NOVA Earth has been an element of scarcity since January. May is the peak of this trend. With fire dominance, look for wildly speculative markets, with everyone thinking they are ahead of the curve. In fire periods, common sense is not common.
	Dining Bites - May 2011 Excitement mounts over new eatery LULU. Downtown Palm Springs eagerly awaits another first-rate restaurant as LuLu California Bistro opens its doors later this month on Palm Canyon Drive
	The Vine Line - May 2011 As the temps rise, warm-weather wines seduce our senses. This month, think outside the box (literally and figuratively) for your selections. Try an “ABC” (Anything But Chardonnay) mentality.
	Zini’s Mini Italy by David A. Lee Zini Café Mediterrano, a stone’s throw from downtown’s historic Plaza Theatre, sits somewhere in between in both geography and gentility.
	Subjective stupors and wayward drifts Arnold Siegel Some of us live the unexamined life. We simply assimilate into the status quo. Others of us want to write our own marching orders.
	Evening Under the Stars Locals may remember her as LaVonda Dupree in Sordid Lives, a film celebrating Texas white trash and unconventional love that became a Palm Springs cult classic a few years ago.
	Arthur Lyons Film Noir Festival Cigar-chomping mob men, leggy femme fatales, hard-boiled detectives, and deliciously melodramatic stories: These are just a few of the components of classic film noir.
	Jammin’ in Joshua Tree Enjoy continuous music on two alternating stages during the annual Joshua Tree Music Festival, May 13-15.
	Anything Goes Acclaimed director and choreographer Sha Newman directs College of the Desert’s production of Anything Goes at McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert, May 12-15, 2011
	The Hemingway of Hardwood By Mona de Crinis There’s something poetic about rocking chairs. Maybe it’s the way they sound: The soft “whoosh whoosh” and rhythmic creaking as they rock to and fro
	Mother’s Day Shopping Spree Love means never having to say no to retail therapy. This year, show mom you care by taking her shopping on El Paseo in Palm Desert,
	Idyllwild Arts Summer Program By Mona de Crinis There's an adult ceramics workshop during the ‘Hot Clay’ two-week program. And Counselors entertain family campers after breakfast during traditional “Morning Sing Shenanigans.”
	God Nose By Steven Biller Widely considered the most influential American conceptual artist, John Baldessari, 79, disassembles, rearranges, juxtaposes, cuts, traces, reassembles, and paints over body parts and discarded photography
