Shenango Township and South New Castle Borough plan a merger that would keep all three current stations open, create a unified department with a single chief and board, and maintain most buildings while rebranding equipment only for new name use.

Appeals for disability benefits drag on for years
Vernon Lamirand, one eyed and eager to work, fights a system that denies benefits to many.

Oklahoma senator James Lankford notes 13,000 residents waiting in his state.
