Column: A few feats worth watching
There are many reasons to watch sports. Sometimes it’s for the drama of the games, the thrill of two teams engaged in a close competition down to the final seconds before, if Twitter is to be believed, the referees totally mess things up for one or the other.

Column: Hiding inside until spring arrives
This week we had a beautiful day, 35 degrees and sunny. You know it’s been a long winter when 35 degrees seems beautiful and just seeing the sun feels invigorating. I was so invigorated that I said to one of my co-workers it seems like spring is here.

Column: Vacation at the end of the world

Editorial: Plenty of good news in schools
Farmington got a lot of attention last week thanks to the actions of one high school hockey player. The reaction is not a big surprise. The video of Austin Krause’s abrupt departure from the ice Feb. 12 was striking, and for many it played neatly into an ongoing narrative about What’s Wrong With Kids Today.

Column: News is a funny business
News is a funny business. Not always in a funny “ha ha” way, but sometimes in a funny “you can’t make this stuff up” way. And other times, it’s a funny “I love this job” kind of way.

Column: Following the Grammys from afar
The 2013 awards season continued Sunday with the airing of the Grammy Awards, and I’ll admit I didn’t pay a lot of attention. I tuned in just long enough to see Carrie Underwood sing a song.

DMS Green Team recently celebrated Green Week
A few Dodge Middle School students went dumpster diving for a good cause a couple of weeks ago. Yep, that’s right. They went into the school’s dumpsters. They dug around.
