Letter To The Editor: Is the Hill ready to Save-A-Lot?
Category: Opinion Written by Courier Newsroom
Dear Editor:
Another year has already gone by and with Kuhn’s decision to not locate its store in the Hill. It’s evident now that a full-service grocery store remains elusive for the Hill District. According to the Hill District Community Benefits Agreement, efforts to finalize a grocery store in the Hill District is fast approaching.

Don’t worry, remember Save-A-Lot, the national grocer that Landmarks Community Capital Corporation introduced to the Hill District last year? Well, the good news is they are still interested in locating in the Hill.

Birthday on Thanksgiving, what wonderful gifts
Category: Opinion Written by Louis 'Hop' Kendrick
I celebrated my 78th birthday on Thanksgiving Day in Acto, N.J., at my daughter’s home. All three of my daughters—Toni, Kim and Jerri—were present.

I received the usual gifts and my favorite lemon pie was substituted for the traditional birthday cake. My wife and family presented me with birthday cards, with words so moving it almost bought me to tears. These cards are in my column this week.

Guest Editorial: Obama’s decision is true act of leadership
Category: Opinion Written by Courier Newsroom
by Shannon Williams
President Barack Obama’s strategy for the war in Afghanistan is one that was received with mixed reaction.
Supporters say his plan to increase U.S. troops as well as set an end date is a move in the right direction, while opponents feel that the war is senseless—be it in Iraq or Afghanistan.
While I’m against war (particularly the war in Iraq), I understand the United States’ global role and our need to have a presence in Afghanistan.

One year later: Have things really changed?
Category: Opinion Written by Al Sharpton
(NNPA)—It was regarded as one of the most historic days in our nation’s history. Unprecedented numbers of young people and minorities hit polling stations and cast their ballots in a national election. After an intense, seemingly endless campaign cycle, the populous was engaged and actively participated in our political process in ways previously unheard of. And for the first time a majority—Whites included—attempted to rectify our tumultuous and troubling past by electing the first African-American president of the United States. A little over a year later however, I ask, have things on the ground really changed all that much?
