Disappearance of men’s clothing stores not only in Southington but most everyplace. Our emphasis on informality, hard to resist, makes it a tough sell for high-end suits and sport jackets.
Towns – Southington, Wallingford, Meriden, Cheshire, or anywhere else – have no business complaining that the state wants us all to remove phosphorus and other substances from waste water to avoid turning Long Island Sound into a dead sea zone. But, while it is highly annoying and expensive to have to face first one nutrient issue and then another and devise separate mediation, that is the nature of how pollutants’ effects have been discovered and that is, after all, how we put pollutants into the water system, one after another.
The Second Chance Ranch program, run by the Department of Agriculture and the Department of Correction at Niantic, seems to work both for animals (some of whom were former Meriden “residents”) and for prisoners. As with pets for seniors, animals create valuable bonds for and with human beings, especially those who are in serious need of this sort of companionship.
