"I'm glad to see that significant progress is already being made, but we've got to keep this project fully...

The third time wasn't the charm for the Montana State University-Northern football team. Having beaten the Mayville State Comets in their previous two meetings, Northern couldn't make it three in a row as the Lights fell to the Comets 24-6 Thursday night in North Dakota. Despite a 105-yard game from former Havre Blue Pony Mason Dionne, who scored Northern's lone touchdown, the Lights couldn't muster enough offense in the end. Down 10-0 in the second quarter, Dionne ripped off...

Head coach Bobby Hauck said it best himself. "Enthusiasm is at a record level." The sell-out crowd in Washington-Grizzly Stadium, dressed to match the Blackout theme under the lights, came in still riding the high of the national championship appearance last season. They were treated to a thriller on Saturday night as Montana defeated Missouri State 29-24 to win their 13th consecutive home game. The result is what matters in a game that was far from perfect for the hosts....
1 Kings 18:21 "If the Lord be God, follow Him, but if Baal, then follow him." Out our way, ranches can cross county and even state lines. Years ago I had friends whose ranch had such an issue. The region of the Nebraska panhandle and eastern Wyoming is called "Wyo-Braska" by the locals and the ranch house sat right on the line. The ranch had to be registered in one state or the other, so the debate was which state had jurisdiction: Wyoming or Nebraska? Eventually the states...
You know, Lord, some friends reminded us that it is harvest time, so, just checking into and investigating some saved papers, it was amazing to come across a page entitled, "Fruit For All Season!" It's just the right time of year when crops have yielded their fruit and vegetables abundantly and steadily throughout the summer. So, just had to stop a moment to remember all about our family growing gardens, way back when, plus the several neighbors and friends who, also this...
[Ruth 4:9-12] The nearest kinsman-redeemer scuttles off, frightened away by the personal costs of restoring Naomi and Ruth to their property and social standing. In contrast, Boaz doesn’t hesitate to purchase Naomi’s land or to marry Ruth. His sacrificial actions fore-shadow Jesus’ behavior as our Redeemer, the one who fully pays the cost for our sins, adopts us into his family and bestows on us eternal security. Are we thankful enough for God’s provision in Christ that we are willing to sacrifice for the redemption of othe...

Seventy-two times around the sun ... and 17.2 times around the earth ... just going to town! As most of you know I live just off the Amos Trail which is off the Wildhorse Trail. We travel 13 ½ miles on the Wildhorse Trail, then turn right on the Amos Trail and go 5 ½ miles north. At Road 140 we turn right and go almost two more miles. Then you see our buildings on the north side. One time, I had a co-worker mock the name "Trail" as being old-fashioned and...

MARY CONLON and MIKE STOBBE The Associated Press AMES, Iowa - At first glance, it looks like an unassuming farm. Cows are scattered across fenced-in fields. A milking barn sits in the distance with a tractor parked alongside. But the people who work there are not farmers, and other buildings look more like what you'd find at a modern university than in a cow pasture. Welcome to the National Animal Disease Center, a government research facility in Iowa where 43 scientists work...
