HEATHER HOPES: Secret Sweeper
By HEATHER CATHLEEN COX HeatherCathleenCox@gmail.com Autumn is an enchanting season. My favorite, if I had to pick one of the four.

HEATHER HOPES: Checks and Balances
By HEATHER CATHLEEN COX Special to the NEWS heathercathleencox@gmail.com In order to apply for a job, a loan, an education—even to belong to a religious institution—we’re given forms with checkboxes, and we’re told to check the box containing the preconceived label with which we “best identify,” with regard to: ethnicity; religious practice; political involvement; educational …

HEATHER HOPES: A Good Man Is Like a Unicorn
By HEATHER CATHLEEN COX Staff Writer reporter@sbnewspaper.com I recently took a social media quiz titled How Big of a Player Are You?
