QUINN MINUTE: Really ancient food

Sometimes I wonder how our ancient ancestors survived without foods like breakfast cereal and ice cream. But maybe they didn’t realize what they were missing, because pre-historic television commercials got such poor reception. Seriously, consider the paleolithic period, which covers about 2.5 million years. Up until 12,000 years ago, these folks were hunters and gatherers. They just kind of wandered around, searching for fruit, vegetables, and slow animals that looked tasty. Their housing was basic. They lived in huts, teepees, or […]

GUEST EDITORIAL: Democracy still needs us

This editorial was written at the request of the National Newspaper Association and distributed nationwide in celebration of National Newspaper Week. “Newspapers are dead,” a solemn but dubious audience of students heard. “In 10 years, they’ll be gone altogether.” We’ve all heard the grim assessment. But it didn’t come this year, when corporate greed downsized far too many newsrooms. It didn’t come 15 years ago, when social media began to cocoon us into echo chambers that let us hear only […]

OP-ED: It’s government shutdown season

Government shutdown might have unforeseen consequences in rural areas, especially communities heavily reliant on USDA funding

On a good day, I forget that the government exists. I drive to the grocery store on smooth roads and drop my mail off at the little blue box that sits at the end of my street, and I consider going to the library, as a treat for a productive errand run.  Roads, mail, libraries: these are just a few of the public goods provided by the government, paid for by our tax money. And I’m happy to pay for […]

TOSETTI: A plea to Montgomery County

What a great county we live in. Where town and country meet, the best overall location in the State. Close to many major highways, hospitals, colleges, lakes, major cities, churches and we have good soils.  We are far enough away to keep nearly all the local items and conveniences we need and nearly all the recreational things needed as a very desirable county and most of all a very friendly and loving area. After all, it is not the quantity of […]

TOSETTI: Teaching and encouraging success in life

Have we taught all the right things to our students for them to succeed in life? First, I applaud those who have been instrumental in establishing the trade center in Litchfield. I have scratched my head for years as to why we have not been able to figure out that many students do not wish to attend college as they desire other pursuits in life or feel they may not be capable of doing so or may not be able […]

MARTY: Many factors can make or break a farm

There are many factors that make or break a farm operation. Since the war started in Ukraine by Russia, American farmers have seen the price of fertilizer double in cost with no end in sight. It’s not unusual to see a farmer have $500,000 in input costs in his farm operation. Weather is another factor to deal with; the right amount of rain at the right times can make or break that farm operation. If it’s too wet in the […]

Tips for a fun “family night in” in July

It’s hard to think about Independence Day without visions of flags and fireworks appearing. The holiday event is rich with traditions that help us celebrate our country’s heritage with pride and a sense of belonging. Families also have a wealth of traditions that help us feel special and part of a group. During July, you can celebrate the traditions that have been passed down in your family. You can also start a few new ones. Taking a break from the summer sporting events […]

KNAPP: Make impeachment great again

“Biden family members and business associates created a web of over 20 companies,” according to a May 10 memorandum from the US House Committee on Oversight and Accountability. Most of those companies, which “received over $10 million from foreign nationals’ companies,” were “formed during Joe Biden’s vice presidency.” The Biden family, according to the memo,  engaged in “complicated financial transactions,” apparently “to conceal the source of the funds and reduce the conspicuousness of the total amounts made into the Biden […]

KNAPP: Bank collapses: Yes, it’s a taxpayer bailout

U.S. president Joe Biden “stresses that Silicon Valley Bank is not getting a bailout,” The Hill reported on March 13. “[N]o losses will be borne by the taxpayers,” he said of the federal government’s decision to cover depositor losses in excess of  $250,000.  “Instead, the money will come from the fees that banks pay into the Deposit Insurance Fund.” But Biden’s explanation doesn’t support Biden’s claim. The bank’s customers — and, by extension, the bank itself — are definitely getting a […]
