Former Newtown resident Larry Terhaar has kicked off a detective series with the release of his second novel. Local readers have two opportunities to meet him during upcoming author events.

Those commenting against the development fail to mention the positives. The "historic" road will be preserved and protected with 33 feet from the center and open to the public Currently its private property), 90 acres will be preserved for every, and 40 acres will be developed with city sewers and water, protection the entire property from 127 homes septic tanks. Is it the same as no development, no, but way better than 127 potential homes developed on the entire property. This is a fair deal from the town and the owner of the property. If the NCC were to win there would be no further development in Newtown, since almost all their arguments are no growth, no build.
blue, you're not way out in left field, but I do not appreciate the underhanded way that the CT Dems have buried these subsidies in my electric bill. I do appreciate the efforts of CT GOP to change how these subsidies would be funded with tax dollars we've already paid to the state of CT, but don't expect the Lamont and his gang to budge. I am glad the CT GOP managed to get our electric bills re-configured so that the public benefits charge was explicit- without that pressure many people wouldn't even know this happened. I do believe the market system has a built-in form of democracy: if you really really want green energy then please vote for it with your dollars. My vote would be for the most efficient method of electricity, not the one that has the largest up-front cost with some vague promise of future payback.
