  • County Hall Corner: 2019: Not an “Off” Year0

    Larry Stout

    In political parlance, an election year that does not have any gubernatorial or national offices on the ballot is considered an “off” year. This means that the turnout will be expected to be low, as all the races are for the most local, and these generally do not arise much passion in the general electorate.

  • Not So Democratic Party1

    Jim Webb

    The Inquisition of President Trump is absolutely pathetic. I have never seen a less Democratic procedure take place in our Nation’s Capital. Democracy and the current Democratic Party couldn’t be any greater of a contradiction. The current House Judiciary hearing has absolutely nothing to do with what they claim are two impeachable offenses, and everything

  • County Hall Corner: Voter Rights and Wrongs0

    Larry Stout

    As Lycoming County voters noticed at the recent election, there was a new voting system introduced to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. It involves a paper ballot that is inserted into a scanner — a verifiable and auditable ballot. While we might blame our Harrisburg bureaucrats for this, the blame should be pointed further south, all

    This Week’s LION: Anne Reiner, Millennial Media Entrepreneur0

    Larry Stout

    How do most folks in Lycoming County get information about their region? The local daily newspaper has been suffering a shrinking readership and subscriptions for some time now. Newspaper circulars in restaurants and grocery stores have some local items, generally revolved around school activities, sporting events, or award presentations. Webb Weekly has a unique niche

  • Williamsport’s Susan Durrwachter Works As Producer For CNN0

    Lou Hunsinger, Jr.

    When Susan Durrwachter was growing up here in Williamsport, she could have scarcely imagined that one day she would be rubbing elbows with the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Donald Trump, Rod Stewart, Aretha Franklin, the Jacksons, Matt Damon, and several four and five-star generals. She was able to do this as

  • County Hall Corner: Election Aftermath0

    Larry Stout

    The general election of 2019 was unusual for several reasons. There was a new voting process involving paper ballots instead of voting machines. There was an incumbent Lycoming County commissioner and incumbent Williamsport mayor, both running write-in campaigns. And there was a life-long Republican whose ballot petition was contested by another Republican for the office

  • Many Can’t Handle the Truth, Can You?1

    Jim Webb

    There is something for all of us to dislike in President Donald Trump. That’s just who he is, and he’s never going to change. It is probably his greatest strength as a leader but could be his kryptonite as far as winning a second term in the Oval Office. I have written on at least

    This Week’s LION: Overachiever Jacob Stopper0

    Larry Stout

    In covering various candidates for the upcoming election, I discovered that both Scott Metzger, running for Lycoming County Commissioner, and Eric Beiter, running for Williamsport city mayor, have the same campaign manager. His name is Jacob Stopper from Loyalsock Township. It takes an exceptional person to manage two high-profile campaigns such as this, and he

    Lycoming College has several fine musical bodies that are part of its cultural scene. They are about to add another. This is the inaugural season of the Williamsport Chamber Players. Lycoming College sponsors the group and it is directed by William Ciabattari, Associate Professor and Music Department Chair. The Williamsport Chamber Players Series brings together

  • Hall of Famer Mike Mussina “Consistently Consistent”0

    Lou Hunsinger, Jr.

    An article on the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum’s website describes Montoursville’s Mike Mussina in a Yogi Berra-esque manner as “Consistently Consistent.” I can think of no better way to describe Mussina and his baseball career even going back to his Montoursville Little League and high school days. There is another sports expression

    This Week’s LION Kaleb Daniels: Intern Extraordinaire2

    Larry Stout

    The comic strip “Dilbert” mocks the contemporary business office. There is a character by the name of Asok, who is a brilliant young intern whose wisdom is not appreciated, and thus ends up doing the most menial of tasks. (Example: “Hey, my staple remover is broken. Somebody toss that intern to me.”) Scott Adams, the

    Larry Stout

    When Tom Marino was elected for his fifth term of office for the U.S. House of Representatives, he was confident it would be his last campaign. What Tom did not expect was a life-threatening illness the first week of January of this year that almost cost him his life. It was a terribly difficult decision,

    For all you far-to-the-left, beyond-liberal socialites, I’m even going to provide you a disclaimer with this week’s column, please do not read beyond this point. The information is impossible for you to understand, let alone accept, and your head might explode. For you far-to-the-left, mainstream-media makers and reporters of what is supposed to be the

    Larry Stout

    It is sometimes a tedious task to cover the Lycoming County Commissioner’s Meetings, but Thursday, June 13th was not one of those times. In fact, to be honest, I personally was never more proud of my county than I was through that meeting. It began with a presentation of Job Well Done pins awarded to
