    Just 54-miles north of Malta sits the United States and Canadian Border. Just 10 or so feet south of the border is the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Morgan Port of Entry where Port Director Joshua St. Denis and his officers are charged with the task of safeguarding America’s borders from dangerous people and materials while at the same time being the first person many foreigners see when entering the country. “The beauty of our job, and why I love it so much, is a good portion of...

  • We are all limping into October

    Parker Heinlein, Outdoor Columnist|Oct 7, 2015

    September’s come and gone, and everybody’s limping. It must be bird season. By the time we got home yesterday Ace was carrying a hind leg. I’d pulled a cactus ball out of his foot earlier in the day and he seemed fine. I hope he just has a sore foot. If not, Jem’s ready to go. But Jem’s always ready to go even if he’s limping. I don’t hunt him every day anymore and he hates that. When I leave him at home he just stares at me and while I know it’s for the best I still feel guilty....

    Brandon Nicholson, Columnist|Oct 7, 2015

    Well Malta, it is getting closer and closer to that general deer season! I have not been this excited to do some good ol’ fashioned deer hunting in a long time.

I could have already been done with my efforts on this side of the state too, if only I was as proficient with a bow the way my best friend is. However, this is a lot easier said than done, because the last time I...

  • This was supposed to be about my reunion

    Pierre Bibbs, Sports Editor|Oct 7, 2015

    In high school I was never one to have “school spirit.” I was never the type to yell from the top of my lungs during our football games. As far as after school activities, the most I was involved was lifting weights after class. I didn’t hang out with many of my friends and or acquaintances after school was out. I was never a straight A student or star athlete. In ten years, I haven’t talked to more than ten people that I graduated with. That didn’t stop me from attending my ten year...
