                            Seeing Tina: The Tina Turner Musical on Easter Sunday at the beautiful, brand-new Tanger Center in Greensboro, NC was something of a religious experience for die-hard Tina Turner fans. It wasn’t so much that Ari Groover looked or sounded like The Queen of Rock and Roll. It was more that she …

                            Gasoline prices have increased more than $1 a gallon during the last month, as President Donald Trump’s war with Iran continues. As a result, many consumer staples that rely on diesel-fueled trucks to reach store shelves are more costly. Food prices are climbing, in part due to a logjam of global fertilizer supply -- nearly a third of which depends on the Strait of Hormuz for transit to farmers worldwide.

                            As the use of artificial intelligence accelerates, several state legislatures and U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders are calling for a pause on the development of AI data centers. They worry about lost jobs for working people and the potential dangers of superintelligence.

                            Gas and diesel prices have soared since the start of the Iran war. But the situation could get worse later this year because of ethanol requirements and problems with fertilizer supply chains.

                            Letter: Raccuia got a raw deal from Bills owner Pegula

                            To say I was shocked was a really good understatement when I read that Ron Raccuia was “fired” (yes, fired without explanation) from the Buffalo Bills, and without any real public explanation as to why. Here’s a man who probably is solely responsible for not only bringing the new stadium to Orchard Park but keeping the Bills here for the next 30 years or so (with a shout-out to Gov. Kathy Hochul and Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz). So why did the Bills send him to the curb after this? I’m sure many other Bills fans want to know why. What am I missing here?

                            LETTER: Sheriff Andis’ statements reckless and irresponsible

                            At a Meet and Greet event hosted by the Washington County Democratic Committee in the Tyler Magisterial District on Sunday, May 1, Sheriff Blake Andis falsely asserted that three students had overdosed on gummies at Abingdon High School the previous week.

                            LETTER: Decisions on abortion need to be returned to women, not the states

                            Morgan Griffith wants Roe v. Wade overturned so that control over abortion can be returned to the “states and the people.”

                            LETTER: Passenger rail extension isn’t just about Bristol

                            I read with interest an article outlining the possible extension of Amtrak passenger rail service to Southwest Virginia.
