Review: Karen Gelardi's 'botanical propaganda' at Perimeter Gallery

Color fields

Review: Modern painter's style showcased at Farnsworth

Another fine mess: 20 years of the Boneheads

FairPoint's struggles continue

Corporate Albatross Dept.
It has been a very long time since our last FairPoint update, but you can rest assured that the North Carolina-based landline provider's downward slide has continued, as the company attempts to restructure its way out of crushing debt through bankruptcy-court protection.
