Home for the Holidays: The House You’ve Driven Past a Thousand Times
SafeHaven for Kids, Kids In Crisis Homeless Shelter By Shari L. Shapiro, Executive Director, Kids In Crisis Every day, thousands of cars pass our little unmarked campus on Post Road.

Most don’t think about what happens behind our quiet walls. But this December, something big is happening here: ev

Octember - Poetry by Ira Joe Fisher
Octember Leaves are leaving and the wind is moaning as spirits swirl about. Haunting haunts town and countryside. Ghosts on the mind; ghosts in the yard; ghosts skulk the street. Hallowe’en steals color from the trees and their twigs to make a creepy way, to forge a sighing day to force a listening over your shoulder …for a growl or a scream.

Hidden - Poetry by Ira Joe Fisher
Hidden We’re too near a city and our own town powders night with light hiding the stars we seek; or should wish to. Dim is a cruel word, and gone, even crueler. Light is kind to farmer, to reader but pin-pierced sparks that stay (I’m told) and glow to gold; ought always be seen, to comfort and send an essence of sun in small beams that neither burn nor blind, but (so I’m told), only glow to gold.

Holy Joy - Poetry by Ira Joe Fisher
Holy Joy My books breathe and glow about my rooms. They have lifted me in a little valley to a whiling away in Asia and around the south and west and north and on to now in treed New England. My books bear the wild wonder of word – a daily gift I take in chalice-like: reverent, awed, inked, moving, and holy; passages underlined and margin-lined mystery-wisdom thrilling my thoughts. If I may – a wish rises from my me that a daughter or a son might look upon these sacred pa

What's The Best Water Filter for PFAS?
For homeowners concerned about drinking water quality, PFAS contamination is an issue that can’t be ignored. PFAS, short for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a group of synthetic chemicals commonly referred to as “forever chemicals.” Once they enter the environment, PFAS break down extremely slowly, accumulating in soil, water supplies and even the human body over time.
