  1. 11/9/2012-So Long Linda

    This makes at least four high profile Connecticut multi-millionaires in the last 32 years to go down in flames trying to buy a political office; Joel Schiavone, Ned Lamont, Tom Foley and Linda Mcmahon. Can we safely say that we voters can't be bought? Well, let's put it this way, a majority can't be bought. There are still a large number of misguided, desperate people who will gladly sell their vote for a promise. Pathetic.

  5. Crime & Punishment: A Couple People Who Really Hate Obama

    <strong>Every autumn, Colchester holds a community-made scarecrow display</strong> on the Town Green. On election years, town Democrats sponsor a patch and put up scarecrow effigies of candidates, according to the Norwich Bulletin. Not the best at arts and crafts, the Dems' display this year featured straw men with pumpkin heads and headshots of candidates (including the president, vice president and five state or local candidates) taped to pumpkins. Someone apparently found that threatening enough to light the display on fire. Republican First Selectman Gregg Schuster joked on Facebook, "At the time, I was in a meeting with over a dozen people that will confirm it wasn't me!" Democrats accused him of not taking the arson seriously, leading, of course, to a pissing match in which Schuster accused the Democrats of being more concerned with his comments than the unemployment rate.

  9. This Week's Picks: 4 Author Events in Fairfield County

    Writers may be able to work from home in their underwear, which is a pretty sweet deal, but they've also got to hit the road and promote their books and publications from time to time. This week there are a handful of such events in local libraries and bookstores. Jeffrey Lyons is the son of <em>New York Post</em> columnist Leonard Lyons, and he recounts his dad's life rubbing elbows with 20th century icons like Salvador Dali, Frank Sinatra and Ernest Hemingway in his book <em>Stories My Father Told Me</em>. He'll be appearing at the Greenwich Library. Mary Rose Scinto tells the story of the song "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" in her book of the same name, a tune recorded in Bridgeport and now ubiquitous at every sporting event in the country. She's stopping by the Bridgeport Library. Newbury Honor winner Joan Bauer speaks about her new children's novel <em>Almost Home</em> at the Fairfield U Bookstore and former <em>Fine Gardening</em> magazine managing editor Steve Silk talks gardening photography at the Westport Library.

  11. Is Connecticut In Play Politically?

    State Republican Party Chairman Jerry Labriola is doubtless too optimistic in trying to persuade national party officials that Connecticut will be a battleground state between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney in November &mdash; that the Electoral College math could have a nutmeg factor &mdash; and that they should invest heavily in campaign infrastructure here.

  15. Connecticut Businesses Find That Adopting a Highway is Good Advertising

    Businesses are, in the lexicon of the Munchkins from the <em>Wizard of Oz</em>, "morally, ethically... positively, absolutely... undeniably and reliably" banned from putting advertising directly on major highways in Connecticut.

    The Hartford Courant
    When Paul Nitz made his first Paralympic team 20 years ago, he had to pay his own way to Barcelona. "When I made the team, their next statement was like, 'All right, now you've got to cut us a check for $2,000,' " Nitz said. "I was like, 'What if I don't...
