Great shot! One of my favorite places to take pictures of weather

That's beautiful Carol! I'm surrounded by land so this is so great to see!

I hope people note how these comments go. Anonymous right-wingers try to change the discussion,…Read More prove a point that no one is arguing, and then declare victory. Both "Goodie Bassett" and "Reagan Night" say Ms. Daponte is lying because Tony Smith won't be removed from office. I just re-read Beth's piece to see where she made this claim, but she never said anything of the sort. What she did say was "Both Tony and Linda serve until January 1, 2016." So, where's the "half-truth"? The point of the post is that the new land use District II, comprised of the 3rd & 4th council districts, has no representation on any of these boards. Tony Smith will be the District II Zoning Commissioner, even though he doesn't live in that district. The extreme right can't defend this, so they try to change the subject.

Isn't it odd that the half truths are written by people that won't sigh their real name but the…Read More Democrats sign theirs. Huh, guess they don't want to be held accountable for their inuendo's and false acusations.

If the worst thing against Mayor Harkins is the lack of allowance of golf carts on the streets of…Read More Lordship then he's doing pretty well.

What a wonderful town we live in that the only problem we have worthwhile to discuss is golf carts…Read More driving down the street! WHO CARES? I have kids riding their go carts and mini bikes around our neighborhood. They learn how to fix them and have some fun which doen't include stealing or damaging my property. Actually I enjoy helping them and occasionally lend them a tool or two. The parents make them be considerate by not allowing them to ride around early morning or late evenings. SO WHO CARES! I guess you will want to stop all the people at Oronoque condos from driving across the road up there too? Hey..on the road is on the road. Again, WHO CARES? Get informed and worry about a real problem facing us here in town!

I hope this was reported to the police. Every time I get behind the wheel I see at least one driver…Read More doing something stupid and dangerous. We really need to crack down on careless, aggressive drivers. The next time this tow truck driver hits something, it could be a pedestrian - a child! I certainly hope this driver gets caught.

Odd how some people cannot stand the look of nature in its natural state! Let the grass grow. It's…Read More not doing any harm, and it's good for the environment. Besides, the public works department, the legislators, and my tax dollars have better things to do.

Taco Bell is NOT the answer. Why add another chain shop to the area. Why try to bring in a low…Read More class place like that!? I don't get it. If a nicer structure goes up, you will get nicer results. I say a nice facade building matching the area architecture and housing a restaurant or other approachable business would be nice.

Thanks....I should have talked about the 1/2 marathon though.

Update from Lake Compounce: Due to the significant likelihood of thunderstorms and lightning the…Read More entire time we would be open which would cause us to close rides, Lake Compounce will not be opening today, Saturday, May 11th. We will open tomorrow, May 12, at 11am. So sorry for the inconvenience.

Any public dock that gets you out over the water a bit. Looking at Norwalk, maybe the one outside…Read More our IMAX theater, or at the Visitor Dock on the other side of the drawbridge. Perhaps the little bridges to Bell Island (in Rowayton) or Canfield Island (east of Calf Pasture Beach), but parking is an issue there.

This article leaves out one of the most important risk factors - having dense breast tissue! Not…Read More that the dense quality causes the disease, but the fact that mammograms often come back "normal" when they are not! Every woman should know (it is her legal right) her breast density number. Please go to: http://www.areyoudenseadvocacy.org/ I personally know 3 people that were told they were all normal. They pushed for further tests (ultrasound and MRI) and found they had stage 3.

Thank you very much for the comment Susan. You are absolutely correct and dense breast tissue will…Read More be discussed at this talk.
