A reel special day

Patty Wallace squealed as she tossed her fishing pole toward her instructional aid and ran to find her teacher Thursday at Trudy Romine’s pond.
“Mrs. Harrell, Mrs. Harrell! I caught one. I caught a fish,” she screamed, dragging her teacher by the hand to the shore of the pond. ....more>>

  • One man's junk... Another man's treasurer
    JOPLIN, Mo. — At the start of his lunch hour on a wet Monday afternoon, Ben Mitchell began what has become a daily ritual, so long as the weather is nice.
    Leaving his office at LaBarge Inc., he walked across the parking lot, past another business and then headed east along Junge Boulevard.
    Mitchell’s eyes remained cast downward, scanning the ground in front of him.
  • Fun that's Homespun
    The “Homespun” Arts & Crafts Show and Plant Sale will be held May 2 and May 3 in Athens. The annual fundraiser for Athens Bible School will be held from 10 a.m to 6 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the school.
  • A spectacular culture
    The world-renowned Chinese Spectacular strives to bring the “true” culture of China to the world.
    The show, presented by Divine Performing Arts of New York, reflects compassion, sincerity, dignity, wisdom and truthfulness, everything the communist government of China has tried to destroy, said Jason Wang, volunteer promoter for the show.
  • Old mansion plus new hotal equals cooking school recipe in Savannah
    TIFTON, Ga. — Hanging out in Darin Sehnert’s kitchen feels as comfy as leaning on the counter at family gatherings.
    Difference is he’s a highly trained chef running a cooking school in Savannah, and he knows a whole lot about putting food and conversation together.
    After taking his low country class in February I know more than I used to, but not so much that my vacation-to-relax was interrupted by too much paying attention.
    Good combination.
  • What YOU lookin’ at?
  • Dixie Derby Girls empowered by roller rink competition
    The screech of rubber on hardwood floors echoes in the background as packs of women resembling Vikings on roller skates battle for points during a roller derby bout.
    Replace the barbaric horns, fur and weapons with short shorts, little skirts, fishnet stockings and roller skates and you have a pure warrior, a Dixie Derby Girl.
  •  Flowers aren't just for picking
    JOPLIN, Mo. — Roses are red, violets are blue, flowers aren’t just for picking anymore, they’re tasty, too.
    Once popular for eating, spring blossoms have been mostly replaced by plant stems, roots, leaves or fruit on the dinner table. But some plant and food enthusiasts insist edible flowers are coming back in style and with good reason.
  •  Women fulfill their ‘callings’ by joining the B-Team Angels ministries
    If angels are among us, they do not look as if they fell from Heaven with halos made of gold, floating with wings that glitter when they flutter.
    But they might look like the rest of us, normal, ordinary people with invisible, slightly warped halos. These ordinary people might be called the second-string angels.
  •  Health by chocolate?
    AVON, Ind. — Katherine Ward believes she has found the answer to her stiff joints and aching muscles in a popular junk food — chocolate. But not just any chocolate, a “healthy chocolate” called Xocai (pronounced “show-sigh).
    Ward, who is retired from teaching in Monrovia after 21 years, and her husband, Terry, who is retired from Duke Energy after 35 years, have spent the past year working as Xocai distributors.
