Editorial: The mark of leadership

Posted on January 14, 2013 |
By Angelo Lynn



In his State of the State Address last Thursday, Gov. Peter Shumlin proposed a provocative question: “Success in the new economy depends on an educated worforce with skills beyond high school in science, computer technology, engineering and math. I ask you: Is Vermont prepared to meet this challenge? Are we ready to harness this opportunity so critical to our future prosperity?”

Editorial: Porter Hospital's miscalculations

Posted on January 10, 2013 |
By Angelo Lynn



In doing the right thing, Porter got slapped around by the state regulatory agency for miscalculating how much a new, electronic medical records system would cost. The Middlebury hospital took on the challenge of converting to a digital (versus paper) based filing system of patient’s records because it believed it would provide better patient care in the long-term at less cost.

By Angelo Lynn

Editorial: Newtown, NRA and hunters

Posted on December 20, 2012 |
By Angelo Lynn



 The second tragedy of the Newtown, Conn., shootings would be if the nation moves on from this heartbreaking event without coming up with concrete solutions to stem the access of military-style assault weapons. The passage of time has a way of lessening the sting of yesterday’s pain, but also blunts today’s demand for change.

Editorial: Another threat to democracy

Posted on December 10, 2012 |
By Angelo Lynn



 Put aside, for a moment, the national political posturing surrounding the so-called fiscal cliff, the strife in the Mid-East, the growing threat of climate change, and focus for a few minutes on what some senators are calling the most serious threat to democracy facing the nation today: the FCC’s renewed push to allow greater media consolidation in the country’s largest media markets.

Posted on December 6, 2012 |
By Angelo Lynn



When Middlebury College President Ron Liebowitz sent out an all-campus email earlier this week to say the college would take steps to consider divesting its $900 million endowment of stock in fossil fuel companies — about $32 million of which is invested in that industry — he joined the vanguard of a growing movement that is trying to put climate change back in the forefront of the national political agenda.

Editorial: Treatment center good fit for the county

Posted on December 3, 2012 |
By Angelo Lynn



Vergennes residents might initially be wary that a 19-bed residential treatment facility for young women who are battling drug addiction and/or “self-injury behaviors” might soon occupy the former Briarwood Manor nursing home in Vergennes, but initial reports look promising and we think area residents will be comforted as they learn more about the operation and its plans.
