  • Dinner is served & All that Jazz

    Mark Hebert, Publisher|Feb 28, 2018

    If you closed your eyes and breathed deeply last Tuesday night at Malta High School, you might have confused your location in the world as Bourbon Street in New Orleans rather than -25 degree Phillips County. Mrs. Becky Bruce's MHS Culinary Arts Class teamed with Mr. Erik Engebretson's MHS Jazz Combo for a night of Cajun food and live music. The menu for the night featured such delectable items as Muffuletta Puff Pastry Pinwheels and Olive Tapenade appetizers, Chicken Gumbo soup and a main dish...

    Mark Hebert, Publisher|Feb 28, 2018

  • Coalition Offers St. Patty's' Day Safety Tips

    Carol Smith, PCCHC|Feb 28, 2018

    In Ireland, St. Patrick's Day is a religious holiday. In the U.S., it's primarily a day to wear green, pinch those who are not, and very often for some, drinking alcohol in excess. Unfortunately, this sometimes results in those people getting behind the wheel of a car. That's where the fun ends and a potentially deadly situation begins. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 31 people died in drunken-driving crashes on St. Patrick's Day in 2013 (NHTSA.gov). To ensure your own safety and that of those around you today,...

  • An update from the Ranchers Stewardship Alliance

    Feb 28, 2018

  • Hoping this time is different following Florida school Shooting

    Feb 28, 2018

    Dear Editor, Watching the protests regarding the slaughter at the Florida school. Saw a kindergartener with a sign asking "PROTECT ME." Pretty tough having 5-year-olds to have to ask our country to protect him. Hopefully, the campaign started by the high school students asking the elected to "DO SOMETHING" won't fall on deaf ears. The elected spend so much of their time working to get reelected and accepting money from special interest groups. After every tragedy of multiple persons being killed and injured you hear blah, blah about what we...

  • I'm a gun guy, always have been

    Parker Heinlein, Outdoors columnist|Feb 28, 2018

    I’m a gun guy. Always have been. It’s how I was raised. We even had a couple of military weapons in the house when I was a kid – a Civil War era Tower musket, and an Arisaka rifle Dad brought back from the Philippines at the end of WWII. They were a far cry from modern military firearms, but even as a kid I understood their purpose. They were part of a modest collection of firearms my father had picked up over the years. All the rest were either shotguns or .22s we used for hunting and targe...

  • The Flu or Zoo season?

    Feb 28, 2018

    I have been getting a kick out of how much PJ enjoys animals. The little guy has been sick for about a week now and that has been really sad to see. We went to the clinic twice last week, because when your three-year-old has thrown up a couple of times without food in his belly, it is concerning. Since he has had to stay home, Susan’s mother has been gracious enough to take care of him. I think he likes his Nana better than us anyways. But every once in a while I would take off from work early to spend time with him, and even though he is s...

    Dixie Stordahl, PCN Correspondent|Feb 28, 2018

    A funny thing happened on the way to the forum...I was thanked for helping a person unknown to me, find a long lost relative. The person put the relative's name in Google and since I mentioned him in my column, he was able to find him. Scary! I googled myself one time and found that I had been a stripper! Really?? Not! I visited with David and Brandie Stordahl and Rocco over the weekend! I also got to visit with Amy's sister Debbie and her husband Greg and grandson, Ayden! It was nice to see...

    Eldora Henry, PCN Correspondent|Feb 28, 2018

    Record-breaking low temperatures for these days are still keeping us bundled up and wishing for spring.
