State: Health care unions, at request of Speaker Chris Donovan, withdrew strike notices which were to have been effective today. The situation is another indicaton of the brokenness of the health care system, which we hope will be seriously and effectively addressed by both the General Assembly and the Congress.
Middletown: the killing of a student and her former acquaintance accused. One continues to be saddened at the persistence of such anti-Semitic tracts as the Protocols of the Elders etc. In spite of all the opportunities to learn otherwise.
Meriden: the city council will take a new look at the trash pick-up situation, after moving first to reinstate certain locations removed from eligibility earlier this year. More needs to be done, and it is hard to understand, in today's marginal economy, how it can be considered fair to provide residential garbage collection and not office/commercial pick-up through taxes everyone pays. Firms with unusual or difficult rubbish might need special consideration or face extra charges, but household trash is household trash.
