The Facial Observer Reflects on a Primary Parade
Froma Harrop writes of a Rhode Island salon visit during the 2000 campaign, where a cosmetologist named Janet embodies voter apathy and the disconnect between national politics and everyday concerns. The piece muses on Iowa and New Hampshire early contests, Super Tuesday, and the idea that some citizens remain uninterested in campaign drama.

Physician criticizes Blue Cross Westinghouse plan in Aiken
Dr Paul G Goetowski of Aiken argues that Blue Cross Westinghouse payments are below cost, even below Medicare, with Westinghouse and local employers in the area on the bottom tier. He notes Augusta doctors receive higher payments and cites a $2500 procedure paid only $1500. He defends local hospitals handling high indigent care while insurers pay little.
