Meriden: Police department moving forward with prevention efforts against youthful alcohol use, thanks to a federal grant. This is a good program to pursue, as long as it doesn't quite get to an absolutist position. Unless we move to a new age of Prohibition, kids need to learn how to drink so they remain in control. Drinking safely isn't something which happens automatically when a person turns 21, or 18, or 25. But at 21, the controls are off, and an unskilled person can head right into trouble.
Southington: Shock and dismay over the VIP store, but it's a little hard to see what can be done next, since the town's zoning ordinance appears to allow what the adult store proposes and since there are a couple of other businesses of similar type already in the same area.
Cheshire continues to debate the future of the Community Pool in its various and continuing configuration difficulties. It remains a shame that so potentially valuable a town resource somehow creates such controversial and continuing controversy.
