CANYON, Texas — The road and slow starts continue to plague the Eastern New Mexico University men's basketball team. The Greyhounds rallied from 20 points down early in the second half — and had a 3-point shot at the buzzer to tie it — before losing 71-68 to West Texas A&M on Wednesday in a Lone Star Conference men's basketball game. Reggie Nelson scored a game-high 25 points for the Greyhounds (10-8, 3-6 LSC), who fell to 1-6 on the road this season. Devone Davis added 12 points for ENMU. Donald Sims had 19 points and 11 re...

Of the three major events of Jesus' life—Christmas, Good Friday, and Easter—only the Crucifixion took place completely out in the open for all the world to see. And when the four writers of the Gospels set forth their accounts of Jesus' life, they devote one-third of their time to that most excruciating event in history when God the Son hung powerless, nailed in seemingly complete failure, to a Roman cross. So writes Philip Yancey in his fine book Disappointment With God. The...

When I was an elementary school kid at Dora, we had two locations where we could spend our “store money” each week. Our parents could get a full service gasoline fill-up at stations on each end of the village. The cafe was open most days for hamburgers and fries.

But much to the delight of those of us who frequent Dora, the general s...
