Hi everyone,

The following have been posted for March 25, 2011, at County News Online:

From the Editor

Not sure if this was reported elsewhere, but there was an interesting case of kidnapping (or abduction) that has been investigated and is now being prosecuted. It’s worth following. Two Ohio Supreme Justices showcase the Lincoln Day Dinner this year. And our Visitor’s Bureau is touting tourism in Darke County up north.

Hi everyone,

The following have been posted for March 23, 2011, at County News Online:

From the Editor

While Japan and Libya have been dominating the national and world news, “dollars and sense (wording intentional)” have dominated Ohio news. In nearly every meeting I attend the topic of Ohio’s budget has played a role in discussions. State Rep. Buchy had a full crowd that stayed long after the Republican Men’s Club meeting was over. It’s our lead story.

Hi everyone,

The following have been posted for March 22, 2011, at County News Online:

From the Editor

The Japan catastrophe and Libyan crisis are dominating the national news; and Gov. Kasich is getting kudos from the usual places… plus the not so usual ones. He has attracted the attention of a national blogger at Townhall and the Plain Dealer says he’s ushering in a leaner government. If I had to make a “commentary” (which I will), maybe the handwriting isn’t on the wall in Washington yet, but it is in Ohio.

Hi everyone,

One of the “great reads” of historic Darke County is Nancy Hampshire Rush’s “My Mother’s Child,” a detailing of the life of one family from as far back as the late 19th century, through today. Our lead story is an excerpt from one of the chapters. State bankruptcy is where some states may be headed… but if Gov. Kasich has anything to say about it, not Ohio.
