Earlier this week I read an editorial on how everyone should support Montana House Bill 245 because it is our right as adults to buy raw milk. First, there is no question in this debate. Individual human rights are always the most important, but with that comes personal responsibility. Public health over the past 200 years has tried to educate everyone on how to eat the correct foods, vaccinate against diseases and learn how to keep ourselves healthy. Being sick is no fun and it can be very expensive. Public health officials...

Just one week after beating the Lewis-Clark State Warriors in Havre, and less than a month after beating the Warriors on their home floor in Lewiston, Idaho, the Montana State University-Northern Skylights needed to do it all over again in order to have a second straight chance at a Frontier Conference championship.

MISSOULA — There was once a popular Nike commercial where Michael Jordan famously talked about how many times he’s failed, about how many times he missed a game-winning shot. Later, there was a similar commercial about Tiger Woods and how many golf tournaments he failed to win — which was many more than the 87 career times he did win. Whether it’s Jordan or Woods, or Koby Bryant, who did win five NBA championships, but that’s over the course of a 20-year career — what they a...

At the 2016 NAIA national tournament Friday and Saturday in Topek...
