The Recycle Bin: Living as if the world is sacred
Maine parks and lakes invite Mainers and visitors into close connection with nature in peaceful observation of sacred plants and animals.

Letter to the editor: Speak out against civilian casualties
Civilians never enlist to be murdered, destroyed, maimed; to be collateral damage or bomb and missile targets (“A Russian strike on a city market in eastern Ukraine kills 17 and wounds dozens, officials say,” Sept. 6). Not anywhere. Not in Ukraine, Russia, Sudan, Dresden, Vietnam, Syria, Ethiopia, Tigray, central Africa, Israel, West Bank, Hiroshima. Not […]
