Opinion-Editorials

Our View

State College Borough Council is considering a nuisance ordinance that may come up for a vote next month. If passed, the ordinance will hold party hosts responsible for the raucous behavior of their guests.

The following editorial appeared in the Chicago Tribune on Monday:

Our View

The polls are open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., and we hope at least half of those who voted last year at this time — in the presidential election — make time to do so today.

Our View

One of the most powerful constituencies in American democracy is voters. While the electorate turns out in droves to vote in the presidential election, voters are less likely to exercise their democratic right in non-presidential, off-year elections. Nonetheless, the off-year competitions often have more direct influence on your quality of life.

THEIR VIEW

The Centre Daily Times asked the two candidates for Centre County district attorney — Michael Madeira and Stacy Parks Miller — to respond in writing to an identical set of questions. The questions and their responses have been published every Saturday during the campaign. This is the final question.

THEIR VIEW

The following editorial appeared in The New York Times.

It sounded good when the Treasury’s pay czar, Kenneth Feinberg, announced that top executives at Citigroup, Bank of America and the other five institutions surviving at taxpayers’ expense would see their compensation packages cut in half this year and their cash salaries reduced by 90 percent.

Our View

In 2006, Michael Madeira moved into the Centre County District Attorney’s Office vacated by Ray Gricar and has spent almost four years shaping it as his own.

THEIR VIEW

The following editorial appeared in the New York Times.

A proposed new Consumer Financial Protection Agency is intended to protect Americans from abusive, deceptive and predatory lending in mortgages, credit cards and many other types of loans. So no one should be surprised that big lenders have been working the halls of Congress trying to weaken its powers.

Our View

Elizabeth Goreham and Joe Wakeley, the candidates for State College major, share experience as borough council member and president.

Our View

Whenever snow falls in Centre County during October, it’s not good news for most. The early change in the weather interrupts outdoor activities, halts landscape cleanup and destroys fall foliage.

The following editorial appeared in The New York Times:

Our View

More than 3,300 Scouts, leaders and other volunteers will be in neighborhoods throughout Centre, Huntingdon, Juniata and Mifflin counties Saturday distributing collection bags and flyers for their annual “Scouting for Food” drive.

THEIR VIEW

This editorial appeared in The (Harrisburg) Patriot-News.

In case you have not seen the sudden blush of pink everywhere, it is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

THEIR VIEW

The following editorial appeared in the St Louis Post-Dispatch on Monday.

Article 1, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution requires an “enumeration” of the population every 10 years. Since 1790, the federal government has duly conducted its decennial census.
