A stroll on the Prairie
Join a Darke County Parks’ Naturalist on Monday, August 12th at 7:00pm
for a hike through the “back 40” prairie. These grassland ecosystems
don’t stretch for miles as they once did so don’t miss this opportunity
to “wander” through and see what flowers are in bloom, what birds are
active and what butterflies are feeding. Bring your camera and/or
binoculars. Meet at the front of the Nature Center. For
more information, please call the Nature Center at... Read

MAIN STREET GREENVILLE
Inspiring others to create positive change
By Amy Barger
Main Street Greenville Intern
Being a part of Main Street Greenville has personally brought a lot of
awareness on who exactly "Amy Barger" is and what she will do

John Boehner: Obama speech ‘an Easter Egg with no candy’
By Seung Min Kim
House Speaker John Boehner took a preemptive swing at President Barack
Obama’s economic speech on Wednesday, jabbing the address as “a hollow
shell” and “an Easter Egg with no candy in it.” In a brief speech on

FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE EDGE...
The “Light” Moves On…..
By Joe Facinoli
The call came at 5 a.m. How fitting. It was her favorite
time of the day (or so she told us). An hour when she always
found the time to pack one more lunch, iron one more shirt, hang up one
more load of laundry on the clothes line (inside or outside, depending
on the weather, and the season), check over one more homework
assignment, or write one more check, just in time to beat the late
fee...

HUMAN EVENTS
Unsung Black People
By Ann Coulter
It must be hard for young black males to always be viewed as criminals
by people who notice crime statistics. We’ve jawboned that sad story
for 40 years. Last week, President Obama ran it around the block again
in another speech about himself in reaction to the George Zimmerman
verdict. Let’s give that beloved chestnut a rest for a day and consider
another way blacks have... Read
