The news has been dominated by the announcement that Bin Laden has been taken out. We figure if you haven’t heard everything there is to hear, it’s because you don’t want to. Except for the story above and possibly a couple of commentaries, that’s it for us. The big story in Darke County is our ED Office report… that’s our lead for today. Also in News: Sheriff’s Office investigates fatal crash; Ohio has third-lowest tax burden for new business; Ohio ranks No. 6 for job growth; Report: Taxpayers unhappy with public schools; and Speaker Boehner approval dips in new poll. Blogs: Cavalry of expectations; and End the Federal Monopoly on Energy. For Yesterday's Home Page Click Here.
