Northern Bedford thoroughly dominated the first three quarters of Friday nights “backyard brawl” rivalry, enroute to a 34-7 victory. The Panthers, now 6-3 overall, used a combination of the run and pass to score 5 unanswered touchdowns. Kainen Brown plowed in for NB’s first TD from 6 yards out and Ashton Detterline scored on a 2-yard run after an errant TM punt snap gave the Panthers a short field. Collin Yeatts tacked on both PAT kicks and NB held a 14-0 lead at the end of one quarter. The Snider brothers, Eion and Brooks, combined for a 10-ya...
Along with our friend Scout, my son, Bob, is one of the two best autumn turkey hunters I know. Like Scout, Bob hunts hard, covering lots of ground in his efforts to tag autumn turkeys. Unlike Scout, Bob has one liability as an autumn hunter: He regularly shepherds me on his hunts, and I slow him down considerably. Last fall, however, Bob was not encumbered by my presence on the opening day. The evening prior to the autumn opener, we were scouting; and I slipped on some wet leaves and took a terrible fall onto a rock pile. I could hardly limp...

Bender will face off against Jeremy Flaugh, who Bender beat in the primary election for the Republican nomination. Flaugh garnered just enough write-in votes to appear on Tuesday’s ballot as a Democrat. Bender,...

According to the National Cancer Institute, there were 18.1 million new cancer cases across the globe in 2018. Among women, when excluding non-melanoma skin cancer, no cancer was more prevalent globally than breast cancer. The World Cancer Research...
