Cheshire: an interesting look at the librarian’s craft, taking as a starting point the controversial book about the murder.

Southington: bids for the extension of the linear trail have come in low and the process will be moving forward with vigor. There’s stimulus money involved.

Meriden/Wallingford: there are probably analyses to be made of campaign spending and even comparisons to be achieved about the efficacy of campaign efforts. However, no one, candidate or pundit, is too likely to completing such efforts until after Tuesday’s election results are known.

Wallingford/Southington: YMCA and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation have issued grant to Ys to work out some sort of program to tackle obesity. We look forward to seeing what they come up with.
