    Fairfield cross-country runners earn scholarships, look forward to running in college

    Bennett Hodson was 75th place in the Div. III state meet last fall. He set his own personal record in all track events and qualified for state. He chose Kentucky Christian University (Grayson, Ky.) as he was offered full tuition at a school with his major, and he had a good experience when he visited.

  • Is a 64-percent gas tax hike enough for the Ohio GOP?

    Thursday, February 21, 2019 6:38 PM
    For the Republicans who control Ohio state government from the governor’s office to the Senate to the House to the auditor to the AG to the SOS to the treasurer (etc., etc.) the really bad optics here is DeWine’s timing with this proposed 64-percent increase. DeWine’s Republican colleagues in the House and Senate just voted themselves – and many of their friends in government across Ohio’s 88 counties – a nice little pay raise after the November 2018 election. None of them, to my knowledge, campaigned on a platform of “Vote for me, and I’ll give myself a raise, courtesy of your hard-earned tax dollars.” However, that is exactly what they did.

  • The Green New Deal is a raw deal

    The Green New Deal is a raw deal
    Tuesday, February 19, 2019 10:38 AM
    The recently proposed Green New Deal is a raw deal for the American taxpayer. It’s a socialist manifesto that lays out a laundry list of government giveaways, including guaranteed food, housing, college and economic security even for those who refuse to work.
