Add a Star

When your publication dispenses its “Gold Stars and Dunce Caps,” I hope you will take the unprecedented step to add an additional star alongside the name of Town Highway Superintendent Charles McArdle. As an administrator who could have easily monitored the challenges of westbound traffic modifications from the comfort of a construction trailer, Charlie was planted roadside throughout the entire ordeal, wrapped in the neon OSHA jacket of his subordinates, barking orders into a walkie-talkie while simultaneously scowling at hapless motorists who were reluctant to merge into a single lane. My daily afternoon eastbound commutes confirmed his presence, a battle-hardened ... by Staff Writer

Try Vouchers

They invited five of them out for some fast food and then staged a kidnapping. Four escaped, but one was thrown into the trunk of a car, with a pillowcase over his head, and later dumped in the middle of the woods. The young victims were terrorized and terrified. The incident was videotaped. Surprising? Horrifying? Really? As a psychologist, let me remind you what our children are surrounded by every day: • The cruel and inhumane treatment of ... by Staff Writer
