  • Case of the Mondays

    Pierre Bibbs, Sports Editor|Oct 1, 2014

    Every Monday night it is a struggle to crank out news, whilst a show that I watch weekly comes on. A couple of months ago it was 24. The last couple of weeks it has been Gotham, a show that is a portrayal of Bruce Wayne growing up without his parents that were killed in a robbery. For those who don’t know (spoiler alert) Wayne ultimately becomes the caped crusader affectionately named Batman. After the first two episodes, I have got to say, I didn’t expect the show to be so dark, but I love the...

  • Malta's Pastime could use your help

    Pierre Bibbs|Oct 1, 2014

    At one point in Phillips County’s history America’s Pastime or Baseball was the area’s biggest event. Today the county has no adult league or high school league, but there is hope for kids that want to play in a league. That league is called the Milk River Bambino Summer League. The league is split up into two categories. Little League and Tee Ball. Though the league ended last June, Kevin Hunter and Carter Clausen, the league’s overseers are aiming to improve the league for many seasons to come...

    Kari Hould, PCN Correspondent|Oct 1, 2014

A race against time and sometimes odds. Tom Kindle was diagnosed in February 2014 with mantle cell lymphoma stage 4 after six months of tests that had determined what it was not. Mantle Celle Lymphoma, a non-Hodgkin's type, is fast growing, aggressive cancer that attacks the bone marrow and all four lymph node areas (arm pits, neck, abdomen and groin area) and...
