Travels with Uncle Chet: Public option is a first step in health care

COLUMBUS _ I heard the truck crunching gravel before I saw it idling down the driveway. It parked by the back door, and Uncle Chet got out. ``Down here!'' I hollered from the garden where Hon and I were weeding.....more>>

  • Backtracking: Macy's offers area sisters a chance to travel with Elsie
    Normally, I'm not one to give advice here, but this time I'll make an exception. Call them words to our recent high school and college graduates. In your endeavors when you're in the public eye, always strive to look, speak and do your best. You never know who may be watching you, and a good impression may bring many benefits later on.
  •  Backtracking: Middleburgh farm was large producer of hops
    The Pindar Brothers were true holdouts in their business of growing hops in our region. It was the autumn of 1952 when the last harvest took place on the farm of William and the late Henry Pindar of Middleburgh. This was long after most other growers had given up on hops.
  •  Barnes is the gold standard in PR field
    Over the last decade or so, it must have seemed to Maggie Barnes that my main ambition was to make her professional life as miserable as possible. Truth be known, it wasn't my main ambition. Just kind of a nice fringe benefit.
  • Our Great Debate: Natural-Gas Drilling: Production tax helps fund DEC, keeping us safe
    Four business advocacy groups have issued a joint announcement protesting a 2009-10 state budget proposal for a severance tax on oil and gas production.
  • Our Great Debate: Natural-Gas Drilling: The industry also wants safe drilling for gas
    Those who work in New York's oil and gas industry fully understand residents' concerns about possible natural-gas exploration in the Marcellus Shale.
  • Religion column: No demands on faith in Zen, but faith needed
    Zen Buddhism is often described as a teaching beyond words and letters, and, among other things, it places no unconditional demands on faith. This has made Zen attractive to Westerners in a world where advances in science and technology have seemingly explained everything, the media give us every last dirty detail in the lives of public figures and we can get a thousand answers to any question with the click of a mouse. In this climate, many find faith _ the belief in something unproven _ irrational and impractical. And it is in this environment that Zen, with no explicit requirements of our faith, seems appealing.
  • Reporter's Notebook: Delaware County gets new numbers
    The Delaware County offices are getting new phone numbers and though the offices are all located in Delhi, they are being assigned the Bovina 832 exchange.
  •  Musings of the Baggage Handler: Stumbling through...
    I was having dinner with my closest male friend, Rob, the other night and we started talking about relationships …as we often do.
  •  On the Right Side: How long till Obama is booted?
    I'm wondering how long it will be before the word "impeachment" starts being bantered about? The list of reasons to expel Obama keeps getting longer and stronger, and this is only five months into his reign. Everyone knows about his inexperience. His rhetorical abilities made people overlook this weakness. Even his eligibility to have become president is becoming an issue.
