Facing perhaps her toughest reelection fight, veteran Sen. Susan Collins has parachuted into familiar terrain — the heart of a hot-button issue, this time President Donald Trump's impeachment. Two days after several inches of snowfall caused cancellations throughout the state, another round of snow is expected to blanket Maine this weekend. As part of an ongoing effort to better explain how the newsroom works, I’m sharing our reasoning and process here. The fourth annual women's marches are taking place Saturday in Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. The key is feeling what your pet may be feeling.

President Donald Trump's legal advocates for his Senate impeachment trial will include a pair of well-known attorneys who have vigorously defended Trump on television and played roles in some of the most consequential legal dramas in recent history. No one ever said farming or raising livestock in Maine was easy. And if they did, they certainly never said it was easy during the winter when temperatures drop to well below freezing and snow drifts are higher than some agricultural outbuildings.

George Stevens Academy has cut in half the tuition increase it seeks next year from the seven Hancock County towns that send students to the private high school. Southern Aroostook High School senior forward Makaelyn Porter knew there would be a lot of pressure on her this season, being one of two returning players. For those who aren’t already connoisseurs of the Bangor area’s craft brewing scene, it might seem a little overwhelming at first. The Hampden man who brought a loaded handgun into the Portland International Jetport on Friday morning in his carry-on luggage is not unusual either in Maine or nationally, as law enforcement officials are finding guns ever more frequently on travelers nationwide. A dark-money group that has aired ads opposing Central Maine Power’s proposed hydropower corridor was hit with a Friday ethics complaint by a political committee funded by the utility in a move that could force the group to disclose donors. |
