Grab and Go: Five Stories You'll Like
1. Follow the money. The Connecticut Mirror tells you how much each candidate has spent in the race for the U.S. Senate. (Hint: a lot.)
2. Shakespeare is not for sissies: From Frank Rizzo in the Hartford Courant, a story about a swordfighting mishap that, for one night, halted Hartford Stage's much-touted "Antony and Cleopatra." Good news: the actor is up and acting in today's matinee. Hartford Stage artistic director Michael Wilson will discuss the dangers of Shakespeare on today's Colin McEnroe Show at 1 p.m.
3. Death and politics. Our partner Paul Bass from the New Haven Independent offers a terrific read in the New York Times about the role of the death penalty as an issue in the current races. Some nice odds and ends at the end of the piece.
4. 9/11, up close and far away: Speaking in Dallas as he accepts a major award, our partner Mark Oppenheimer wonders: "why is there anti-Muslim rage in places with very few Muslims and no history of Muslim terrorism whatsoever?"
5. We just never get tired of these guys. Also from the Mirror, coverage of yesterday's Malloy-Foley debate.

Was it something you said?
Or was J Peckinpaugh always a deficit hawk anti-tax fearmonger? I thought she was so cool in that interview with J Rowland in 1990 (?) when she reamed him out big-time for suggesting that the "media" shared some blame for his ignominious defeat. Now it turns out she hangs out with the crew that seems OK with confronting the press with tasers and handcuffs.
Huh?
