One of the main issues I see people struggling with is low energy. Many folks report waking up just as tired as when they went to bed. Some feel like they are just barely dragging through their day, and others feel like they hit the brick wall of total exhaustion by mid-afternoon. Sadly, many people accept fatigue as a routine part of their lives. I struggled with fatigue for several years, starting in my mid-twenties. It took time, but I finally found answers using a natural approach. It was this journey that transformed my health and...

At 12:55 AM on February 3, 1943, a torpedo from German U-Boat 223 detonated on the starboard side and well below the waterline of the USTT Dorchester. The former coastal luxury passenger liner converted to troop transport, carrying 904 servicemen, civilian workers, and crew, sank in only 27 minutes, taking 672 souls to the bottom of the freezing North Atlantic.

Granted, it's cold outside, requiring extra layers of well-insulated clothing. But, Montana is a winter paradise with wide-open spaces surrounded by towering mountains. There's wildlife all around and, frankly, the snow makes them easier to spot. Another bonus, the crowds are gone; even the state's ski resorts aren't busy. So, forget about cabin fever, catching up on chores, or knitting scarves for everyone you know. Get out and take in the sights, discover dinosaurs in Bozeman, a snow coach...

The Department of Veterans Affairs is raising awareness of little-used benefits for veterans: burial at a VA, state or tribal veterans cemetery, and headstones or markers for veterans buried in private cemeteries. According to VA officials, just 20% of eligible veterans who died last year were buried in a VA-managed or -supported cemetery, a benefit that comes at no cost to the veteran’s family. And fewer than half who qualified for a burial allowance or headstone used the opportunity, according to Under Secretary for Memorial Affairs Matt Q...

Due to the fact that chicken prices are increasing, we needed to find an alternative meat. A wonderful reader emailed me about this problem. Dizzy Izzy lives off the coast of the Pacific Ocean. She recently noticed an increase of the nuisance Blue-footed Booby. The birds flood the coast and poop and make noise 24/7. Due to the fact they only lay one egg at a time, they are not a substitute for egg laying chickens. Izzy explained she didn't start out to kill the booby, but wanted to chase them away. At first she used a paintball gun. It worked f...

Did you think your paper was a bit off last week? Didn't know that page 1 is followed by 14, 13, 4, then 5? Did you get deja vu reading about the wrestling team?

JANUARY PART II As January moved toward February, politics, and science were clashing. In Boston, a woman was removed from the courtroom because the defense council said she might hypnotize the witnesses. The eminent Dr. Berman was summoned from Germany to St. Petersburg to help the Czar recover from severe vertigo. In Montana, the legislature was gearing up for a new session with Democrats in the majority, and overtures to bring members of the populist party to their side were not going well....
JANUARY 28, 1998 Whitehall school student academic test scores were higher than the Montana average and substantially higher than the national average.

The test scores were mandated by the law passed by the 1997 Montana State Legislature. The law required the Office of Public Instruction to gather state-wide information on test...

Often on my daily neighborhood walk, I pass a woman and her dachshund, who used to bark at me frantically. I found it irritating. One day, on a whim, I decided to go beyond our customary nods. I asked her how I could make friends with her dog. "Oh, Petey gets upset when he sees people wearing hats," the woman said. "It's just too tiring to tell everyone." Because more people wear headgear in winter, she went on, it's a hard season for Petey. That was enough to make me fall in love with that...
