The 83rd annual Academy Awards came and went, and boy was it a dud.
Thanks for printing Ashley Bray’s column on organic foods last week. It had some good advice, although I would argue that local production affects taste more so than choosing between organic and nonorganic. Nonetheless, I agree that the health benefits of organic food are worth striving for, and that those on a limited budget can employ a strategy of mixing organic and conventional, because eating all organic foods would be too expensive. For anyone wanting to try this, an invaluable tool is the “Dirty Dozen” list, which details the produce with the highest levels of pesticide residues.

Zack Smith concludes in his column published Feb. 21 that U.S. House Republicans voted to end the public funding of presidential campaigns because of its “unpopularity” and its waste of public funds.
We’ve been mentioning our governor’s proposed budget cuts here and there, but it’s time to get specific about people on the losing side. Of course, most organizations receiving government funding could be counted among the losers, but the money needs to be sheared from somewhere. We just don’t like that people who are already struggling may have their helping hands abandon them.
I just wanted to say “bravo!” to Zack Smith for his insightful column published Monday on why Planned Parenthood should lose its funding. His sleuthing uncovered the fact that even though absolutely zero government dollars spent on the organization go toward abortion services, some of the money they receive is instead being used on insidious programs like “sexuality education” and “public policy objectives.”
