PHIL LOSSIFER
      Media comments are unbelievable at times, but Pres. Bush showed why he shouldn't be allowed t' think fer hisself by blamin' Roosevelt fer agreein' at Yalta fer the partition o' Europe after WW 2. It's apparent Rove/Card must have the Hist'ry Channel blocked on White House televisions since broadcasts have shown how it happened an' why. Recent tapes have shown Russian policies weren't cooperative fer democracy, an' it's troops took part in rapes an' pillages when defeatin' Germans. Sunday (5/8) story showed when Russian troops were confronted by British officers over pillagin',...[Read full story]

Farmington (Phelps) Women's Softball League
Week # 1

     Those of us who follow Midlakes sports paused last week to mourn the passing of a part of our circle, Ken Maslyn. Countless hours he spent on the bleachers watching, enjoying, discussing talent and strategy, and always he took great pride in the efforts and accomplishments of his grandchildren. The previous week I sat with him at the varsity baseball game, a frustrating game that we lost, but we both took note of the sometimes outstanding defense, and he was as proud of Tim Jopson's accomplishments as he was of those of his blood grandsons, Ryan Forshay and Zach Maslyn (who weren't playing that day). Before their time, it was Kristin Bump's games he watched with pride, but he enjoyed watching all the athletes do their best, relatives or not. We'll all miss his physical presence at the games, but I'm sure he'll be there in spirit...[Read full story]
