The Blue Jackets signed defenseman Dalton Prout to a new two-year deal, sparking reactions ranging from outrage to . . . well, outrage. Let's dig into it. It is a truism in our household that when my wife utters "Uh-oh" in a particularly drawn-out tone, the ensuing news is seldom good. On Friday evening, that phrase was uttered as she monitored her iPhone, and was the harbinger of the news that the Blue Jackets had re-signed Dalton Prout to a two-year deal, worth a total of $3.15 million ($1..>> view originalExperts: Young professionals fueling Columbus-area growth

An extreme lack of courtesy this campaign season among candidates and their supporters inspired U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan on Wednesday to tell congressional interns: “When passions flare, ugliness is sometimes inevitable. But we shouldn’t accept ugliness as the norm.” That coarsening of public behavior worries Gahanna-Jefferson schools aide Mindy McFann, who had etiquette drilled into her as a child. “I thought, ‘Well, I can either get angry or I can do something about it,’“ McFann said.

A hike in the minimum wage — either on the state or federal level — could be “horrendously damaging” for business or a boon to the economy, depending on to whom you speak.Ohio lawmakers are looking to raise the state’s minimum wage from $8.10 to $10.10, according to legislation introduced this month. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has voiced her support for a $12 federal minimum wage and candidate Bernie Sanders for a $15 minimum wage.But can the economy support any of those increases, e..>> view originalTrump tweets drown out Kasich message
WASHINGTON – As New York billionaire Donald Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz lash out at each other in a vitriolic battle that refers to their wives, Republican presidential candidate John Kasich said “families have to be off-limits” in political campaigns.

Ray: I am sure you get more negative letters than positive messages. Sorry about that. Nonetheless, I wanted to vent some frustration that there was no coverage of Westerville South’s Division I championship win in the paper (last Sunday), despite the game being concluded by 10:30 p.m. I guess that is “late” by Dispatch standards these days. This is one reason why local newspapers are dying in the United States.
