Since 2020, more than 1,000 pharmacies have closed in Pennsylvania. That means it’s harder for many in rural counties like ours to get their prescriptions filled. Customers have to drive longer distances and, at times, pay more. The mass closure crisis has led to expanding pharmacy ...
An article in the outdoors section of Tuesday’s Williamsport Sun-Gazette details how festive releases of Mylar balloons pose deadly risks to birds. A local birding expert shared how birds mistake the remnants of the balloons for food and eat them — and how the remnants of balloons can ...
It is my practice on Fridays, before the onset of Shabbat, to send a message to everyone in the office. I try to be at least a little bit inspiring and encouraging. In this pre-Shabbat message, I simply said: “Pray for peace, but pass the ammunition.” I knew that war would shortly ensue. When I arose in Israel Saturday morning to go to Schule, I peered out of the balcony. The streets are always quiet on Saturday mornings, but this morning seemed different than others. There were absolutely no cars on the street whatsoever. No people. What I did see, which mildly bemused me, ...
Trump bragged about being a peace keeper; he wanted the Nobel Peace Prize. What happened? Iran posed no threat to Americans; yet we attacked them for no clear reason.

When it comes to deciding which state is more appealing on the tax front, the choice is clear: Pennsylvania. The same goes for Ohio and Kentucky. How many high-income professionals work in Wheeling, Parkersburg or Huntington, yet live in Ohio or Kentucky because of a lower personal income tax burden? And now, instead of proposing a meaningful plan to make West Virginia more competitive with its ...
Before any of the Democrats’ crocodile tears or hateful responses to the military action taken by President Trump and Israel to destroy the evil empire of Iran start overflowing the Letter to the Editor inbox, I would like to comment about the situation. It seems that all Democrats, save one, are adamantly against any actions taken by President Trump that would ensure the safety of all Americans, including Democrats. They jump on their soap box of hatred towards this man with their lies and mis-statements. Especially guilty are those of a certain faith who do not have the best ...
