New Hampshire principal drops “F” bomb on Gov. Sununu

CONCORD, N.H. (Heartland Newsfeed) -- On Monday, John Shea, incoming principal of Somersworth High School gave an "F" rating to Gov. Chris Sununu (R-New Hampshire) in an op-ed to Sea Coast Media Group. In his op-ed, he accused the Governor of being proud of his 'A' rating from the NRA. "My understanding is that you are proud of your “A” rating from the National Rifle Association, Governor - an organization that routinely opposes common sense gun regulation and whose membership […]

Fiscal bind may lead to police and fire layoffs in Decatur

Reductions in state subsidies are one reason for Decatur’s predicament, but long-running pension woes are an even larger source of pain. Decatur may soon have to shed police and fire personnel – a concern local leaders have linked to a recent reduction in funding from the state. Mayor Julie Moore Wolfe told a state Senate committee May 16 that further reductions in funding from Springfield would lead to layoffs. It’s true that a loss in state funding was one driver […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Vacation (or Vacations)

The word vacation comes from two roots: “vacate,” which means to leave, and “shun,” which means avoid. Therefore vacation means, “to leave the comfort of your town, and find a rustic motel near coyotes.” Vacationers – who are also called “walking wallets” – prepare for the journey by selecting a place. Popular destinations include national parks, large cities with names that jealous neighbors will recognize, and (3) historic sites like museums, or dinosaur tracks. Before you travel, decide where you […]

The Healthy Geezer: Aches, pains and the colon

When seniors gather, it doesn't seem to take long before we get to our aches and pains. You must get more than your share of that. My friend, Pete, has instituted a colonoscopy rule. He insists that, if a bunch of us geezers are talking about aches, maladies and visits to the doctors, everyone has to change the subject as soon as someone uses the word colonoscopy. Usually we switch to grandchildren, which is a lot more fun. But, while […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Toothbrushes

Where would we be without toothbrushes? For one thing, we might not have as many clean teeth left. My teeth aren’t all mine, but they will be after three more payments. Several hundred years ago, a person cleaned his teeth with a quill. But if he used that same quill to write a letter, the next time he brushed his teeth he might end up with ink on his tongue. So, the invention of nylon toothbrushes in the late 1930’s […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Termites and ants

Have you ever thought about termites? They look like ants. To tell them apart, I put the bug on a piece of wood. If the creature walks away, it’s an ant. If it flies off and leaves a hole in the wood, it’s a termite. And if it flies away carrying the wood, it’s a termite with superpowers. Here’s some advice: If you keep firewood in your yard, don’t store it near the house. Termites flock to it, and stage […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: What’s really important in life?

What's really important in life? Today I want to tell you about Dan, a man who loves to save time. He never drives if he can fly. He never bathes if he can shower. He finished college in three years, the same time it took me to pass freshman English. He asked the first girl he liked out to breakfast, so if things went well he could squeeze in three dates that day. That night he asked her to marry […]

COMMENTARY: One Illinois — another example of political biased garbage media

One Illinois is only days into its infancy stage -- noting that they just launched a handful of days ago -- and it has become highly apparent that their content is just another example of partisan trash media similar to that of Breitbart News and the Illinois Policy Institute. Let's just use an example of their own political bias in an editorial from site editor Ted Cox: Shadowy political operatives dealing in disingenuous news create divisions by race, class, and […]

COMMENTARY: What’s with Manar’s disinformation release on McMillan’s education stance?

Illinois state Sen. Andy Manar (D-Bunker Hill) and his PAC known as Friends of Andy Manar released a press release Tuesday regarding opponent Seth McMillan (R-Taylorville) and his stance on educational reform. Manar's campaign team claims that McMillan is "contradicting his own website" regarding his position on education funding reform. The release goes on about McMillan describing Manar's education funding reform efforts as a "Chicago bailout" with some noting his stance conflicted with that of Gov. Bruce Rauner, who signed […]
