I have been raising grass-fed beef in Vermont for about 25 years, so maybe I’m a tad biased about what some may regard as a fad. However, the trend is gaining momentum worldwide. More people have come to appreciate the health benefits of consuming grass-fed beef, as well as the additional ethical and environmental advantages ... Read more

I was thinking about the old Batman and Robin television serial and how Robin was always saying Holy this or that, Batman. There are websites that collect them all.

In the wake of multiple tragic incidents of political violence, Rep. Laura Sibilia (I-Dover) recently penned an op-ed calling for respect, participation, open-mindedness, and dialogue with those with whom we disagree. “Too often,” she writes, “when people talk about those they [emphasis added] disagree with, I hear ‘they’ or ‘them.’ Used this way, these words are vague ...

Last February, I posted a series of articles about three campaign finance complaints that had been filed with both the SOS’s and AG’s offices in relation to three members of the NH House.

There are many reasons behind the escalating costs in special education. It’s easy to blame the federal government for failing to fund its promised share under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), but that’s only part of the story.

It is an unusual time to be a news junkie. The government is shut down, which leads to a 24/7 media cage match with each side pointing an accusing finger at the other.
