By Erik Hare , Special to the TC Daily Planet

Sometime in the future, Saint Paul might have neighborhood networks that allow people to relay information to their neighbors quickly. Government could deliver services on-line, so that you could attend public meetings in your home. Firemen could be remotely informed of fire alarms and arrive with medical information in hand. Saint Paul could be the “most connected city in the United States”. MORE »

Advise and Dissent: Sparkle Jones

Abortion: I believe taking away a woman’s right to abortion is taking away her freedom. There are diverse reasons why abortion is the best option. There may be rape; few people want a reminder of a traumatic event. There may also be financial issues; many women just can’t afford children. Additionally, women with weak emotional states frequently turn to alcohol and drugs and this dependency leads to abuse and/or neglect of her kids … If a woman makes this call, or wants the option to make this call, why do people pass judgment? Hard decisions are based on beliefs and if you make a decision based on what you believe, then everyone should both accept and respect your decision. — Sparkle Jones, 17, Humboldt High School MORE »
