Legislature’s Lesson Backfires on Legal Aid Funding Clash
In Montpelier, lawmakers refuse a $50,000 boost to Legal Aid, prompting trustees to halt staff representation for state hospital commitments at Waterbury effective July 1. The move risks higher costs as private attorneys may be hired at up to six figures, while the Defender General and Vermont Supreme Court seek emergency funds to continue services.

Skyscrapers may alter rainfall patterns says scientist
Houston based Dr. Joseph L. Goldman of the University of St. Thomas says tall buildings act like mountains to wind, lifting moisture to form clouds and rain. He notes rainfall differences in downtown versus east Houston and predicts global shifts in precipitation, urging urban drainage planning and water resource strategies. He remains cautiously optimistic about future water supplies. Hamtramck mayor Albert Zak proposes a ban on hot pants after seeing a bikini clad woman on the main street.
