Roseanne Barr is back again, this time with a reboot of her iconic, eponymous television show “Roseanne.” It is 2018, so everything that has ever held any kind of cultural significance is being rebooted in a desperate attempt to cash in on the ever growing nostalgia industry.

If I had been advising the students who organized and led the March for Our Lives protests around Maine, I would have told them to keep the program short.

In November of 2017, 59 percent of Maine voters approved Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act. We understood that our vote would extend health care coverage to tens of thousands of low-income Mainers.

During my career, I’ve been an educator and a businessman who focused on workforce development for one of Maine’s largest companies. I feel the need to weigh in on the issue of proficiency-based education -- an issue that’s extremely important to me.

Do you remember the 1999 movie "Field of Dreams" starring Kevin Costner? The film was based on W.P. Kinsella's novel, "Shoeless Joe," published in 1982.

The upcoming spending bill in Congress is being used to sneak in language to repeal or weaken the Johnson Amendment, the law that since 1954 has shielded nonprofit organizations from partisan politicking.

Yesterday's news of an illegal alien in California "being rewarded with a legal education, membership in the California State Bar, a career as an attorney, and elevation to state office" has me thinking about my yellow 1964 Chevy Corvair.

I strongly recommend and support Sue Mackey Andrews for District 4 senator. We will all benefit so much.

Gov. Paul LePage’s government is plagued by systematic, widespread failure, compounded by indifference, cruelty and blame-shifting from the Blaine House.

This fall, my son decided to participate in the speech and debate club at his school, his father beaming with pride. To help encourage him, I also volunteered as a judge.

We reaffirm our support for the safety of our schools, children, teachers, staff, and families. Safety is an essential part of dignity, and every person among us has the right to live a safe, dignified life.

President Donald Trump is a dangerous raving fool. He thinks he can captain the U.S. Ship of State all by himself, with no crew.

Here we go again. There’s another referendum on the ballot this fall that sounds too good to be true. Trust me, it is.
