Disabled people will suffer if assisted dying becomes law
On 11 September, MPs will decide whether to proceed with the latest Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, sponsored by Lauren Edwards. Despite hours of scrutiny and amendments in the Lords, it’s substantially unchanged. It feels like Groundhog Day. Disabled people are weary of explaining why assisted dying is particularly dangerous for us.
Five Best: Books on Wisdom
The Emigrants By W.G. Sebald (1992) 1. Nobody writes like W.G. Sebald. In prose as steady and rhythmic as your heartbeat he tells you things no one else does: an accumulation of small details about a person—“said Aunt Fini,” for example—as though you knew Aunt Fini—and soon you feel that you do. There is no artifice in “The Emigrants,” for the facts are bad enough; there are no writerly techniques, because the telling of a life requires only an observant eye.

Shifting the Food System
Shifting the food system: Frames to speed policy changeshows that the public, when presented with food policies in a different way, may have much greater enthusiasm for changing our food system and the role that government can play in this transition, than many people think. Polling conducted by FFCC has shown that framing food topics differently gives quite a different response.
Programme Lead: Place-based Inquiries
The Food, Farming and Countryside Commission works across the UK through a network of inquiries at a national and local scale. Our place-based inquiries comprise, so far, three inquiries in England – in Cumbria, Devon and East of England – and one each in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Through these inquiries, our ideas and recommendations are turning into practical actions and real change. We are looking for an outstanding facilitator and action researcher to lead our place-based work.
Farming for Change
FFCC has today published Farming for Change: mapping a route to 2030. The report introduces new research showing agroecology can produce enough healthy food for a future UK population and explores how this new technical modelling challenges and develops our thinking about a new food and farming system. The research also addresses the big questions: How do we feed a growing population, healthily? Respond to a changing climate? Create a resilient, secure and fair farming system?

Stop passing continuing resolutions
Facing a Jan. 19 deadline to finalize fiscal year 2018 funding, Congress has the choice to pass a comprehensive spending plan or resort to a temporary fix called a “continuing resolution,” a tactic that funds the government at 2017 levels but doesn’t allow for spending changes. Lawmakers used this measure three times in 2017 to keep the government’s lights on.
Tax bill isn’t perfect, but a step in the right direction toward helping women entrepreneurs
While far from perfect, tax reform measures passed by the U.S. House and Senate undoubtedly contain some benefits for small businesses, which comprise 95 percent of all U.S. companies and require an equitable tax structure to help grow our economy through job creation and investment. Because nine out of 10 women entrepreneurs own small businesses, they may be wondering what is in store for them.
New Canaan: Letter: Moynihan — vision, integrity, tenacity
In my 38 years as a New Canaan resident, I cannot remember a time when we have had a better qualified candidate for first selectman than Kevin Moynihan. His experience as a corporate attorney and his active involvement on the Town Council and in many other civic organizations create a great background to lead our town government. In these times with our state in dismal financial straits, we need more than ever a strong first selectman to protect New Canaan’s interests in every way possible.
We must do more to celebrate women small business owners
October is National Women’s Small Business Month. There’s big news happening every day, so why should we focus on women small business owners? Because women business owners—the vast majority of whom own small businesses—make up more than a third of our economy. And women start businesses at a rate five times higher than the national average. Clearly, women are driving economic growth, making it more important than ever that we recognize and supercharge their economic might.
Navigating the Complex Landscape of P3s
With the global insurer AIG predicting that the United States will soon become world's largest market for public-private partnerships (P3s), many state and local governments are taking a serious look at the potential of P3s to realize social-services and traditional infrastructure needs. But the complexity of P3 structures can be daunting. Without expert guidance, governments may find themselves on an unproductive P3 path after a lot of time and effort has already been expended.

Local media, mon amour | Pique'n Yer Interest | Pique Newsmagazine | Whistler, CANADA
When comedian John Oliver ranted on the state of journalism, he said that without local newspapers, TV news would just be CNN's Wolf Blitzer "batting a ball of yarn around." The point he was trying to make was that his own show and many others are dependent on stories uncovered at the ground level in the unglamorous world of the community print hack — the person who picks up the phone, digs through information online and off, sits through overly long council meetings and AGMs, and gets to...
