JERSEYVILLE - A historic law office building at 103 N. State St. in Jerseyville is getting a “facelift” which is expected to be completed sometime early this fall, according to Ashley Vanausdoll with Joshua R. Evans, Attorney at Law P.C. So far, the most noticeable change to the building’s facade is the addition of two front-facing doors. While the currently installed doors are temporary, Vanausdoll said their new positioning will make entry easier for the law firm’s clientele, particularly the elderly and disabled. Prior to this remodeling project, the two front doors were tucked away and had to be entered from the side rather than the front, which made entry especially complicated for those in wheelchairs. As the owners of the building, Evans’ legal practice received a Commercial Building Improvement Grant from the City of Jerseyville to help fund this project. Vanausdoll said the funds have not only been used to make entry easier but also to
Even before the beloved Southern-inflected Juniper (4101 Laclede Avenue, 314-329-7696) opened its doors in 2013, fried chicken was its thing. It was the basis of one of owner John Perkins' earliest pop-up dinners, Le Coq, and it set the tone for the sort of restaurant he wanted to create when he served his first guests at Juniper's original location on North Boyle Avenue. For a brief moment, it was taken off the menu because of overexposure, then it came back by popular demand and made its way a few blocks down the road when Juniper moved to its current spot four years ago.

EDWARDSVILLE - Madison County officials this week discussed the COVID vaccine and if parents should contact their child’s pediatrician before getting the shot. On Friday, the Health Department Committee discussed COVID vaccines for children under 5 years old. “The big news is that the FDA and CDC gave the green light to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines for children 6 months to 5 years old,” Chairman Kurt Prenzler said. The Food and Drug Administration and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention on June 21, 2022, authorized the vaccine. Prenzler asked the committee if the health department should recommend parents get the advice of their child’s pediatrician before being vaccinated. He said he attended the Health Advisory Committee meeting on Tuesday and asked its members the same question. He said the reason he brought it up was the censorship surrounding COVID, especially when vaccines first became available. Mainstream and social media censored the public

It is utterly and completely irrational for people who defend the vulnerable to call for the destruction of Section 230. Section 230 helps protect vulnerable people by making it possible to speak out against those who would hurt them. Weakening the critically important protection it provides online platforms would only weaken these platforms’ ability to […]
