At Big Sandy High School, Blake Brumwell did it all. He was a three-sport star who played in two state championship basketball games, including winning one in his senior year.

And when his high school career was over, as a Pioneer, he had nothing left to prove. Needless to say, Brumwell...

There was plenty of news regarding buildings in this week’s papers from 100 years ago. In the Jan. 30, 1915 issue of The Havre Plaindealer, we find: COMMISSIONERS CAN CHANGE THE SITE Attorney General Sustains the County Attorney. The Hill county commissioners can lawfully change the site for the proposed court house from the present one on Fifth avenue, if they deem another location more convenient and suitable.

Cognitive dissonance is just fancy talk for the brain hurt you get from thinking two conflicting thoughts at the same time. I think by natural design I would have no problem with this occurring because A) I’m not that deep of a thinker and B) I am instinctively a self-centered person, so naturally the only thought I would have in my brain is about me and my needs. Of course, my parents had to mess that up. Technically, I am well beyond the age that I should be affected by a...

So when the Havre High girls basketball team had the opportunity to complete the season sweep of Great Falls High Thursday night in Great Falls, the Blue Ponies made sure they made it count. And make it count they did. The Ponies got spectacular efforts from both Dani Wagner, who scored 26 points and Morgan Mazurkiewicz, who added 22 points as they went on the road and knocked off GFH...
For over a quarter of play in the first half, the Havre High boys basketball team was in charge of its non-conference game against Great Falls High. But early in the second quarter, Lucas Vining took control away from the Blue Ponies and from that point neither he, or the Bison ever looked back. The Blue Ponies were looking to avoid a season sweep at the hands of GFH Thursday night inside the HHS gymnasium but Vining and the Bison had other ideas and downed Havre by the score...
"The Lord God said, 'It is not good that the human should be alone'" - Genesis 2:18, The Hebrew Text, author's translation Out our way, we come to depend on our neighbors and friends and family, for though some of us live alone, it is not good that we should always BE alone. It is in the interaction with others that "the steel is sharpened," for dialogue, conversation and even debate are critical to the lively mind. We also need that special connection to remind us we are not...
Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus — 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Just after midnight on July 5, 2013, my wife received a phone call that immediately woke us up.

Kade has been in a serious car wreck!” Karrie and I were in Bozeman, Montana, with our daughter attending a week of wedding festivities for a friend. We had just come from a barn dance and were looking forward...
