| 'Mario Galaxy' shoots for the stars; 'Assassin's Creed' falls a bit ...
Princess Peach wants to see Mario, only the dastardly Bowser comes along and kidnaps her. This time, however, he uses a UFO to pick up the entire castle. Mario, clinging to the edges, gets taken into space and given the boot.When he awakens, Mario is in the presence of Princess Roselina, the guardian of the gate to the heavens, who wants Mario to recover the stars that Bowser stole to pull off his Peach heist. She grants him some star powers of his own to do it.Personally, I think Mario would be better off with Roselina than Peach; at least she isn't constantly getting kidnapped.Anyway, what follows is a game so full of originality and fantastic level design that players will be hard-pressed to find a platformer that does it better.Each galaxy Mario visits is unique, and each planet within each galaxy is different than the one before it.By planet, I mean semi-large spheres.
J.C. Price inducts 21 into Hall of Fame
Leon Gaither III played on Salisbury's 1974 championship football team that went 11-2, and he's proud of his son, Mackel, a burly West Rowan lineman who played on an 11-2 team this fall. But Leon Gaither III's father still owns family bragging rights and always will. He played on the undefeated 1940 J.C. Price High team that didn't allow a point. Gaither grew up believing his father's stories about coach Spencer Lancaster's Red Devils were exaggerations. But then he saw the 1940 team's scores in a story the Post did two years ago. "I was glad to find out it wasn't all tall tales," Gaither told a clapping, cheering audience at Price Hall of Fame induction ceremonies held at First Cavalry Baptist Church on Saturday. Price's athletic accomplishments during its run from 1922-1969 as Salisbury's high school for African-American students may sound like fairy tales, but they really happened.
Doug Clark getting patted down????
Good evening, ya'll... I admit, I can two different sides of the video of Doug Clark being patted down by police shortly before climbing into an unmarked police car with Police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick, but I am uncertain which truly applies. The first, as viewed through the eyes of a sworn member of the Spokane Police Department is WHY? Doug Clark, as far as I know, has been an upstanding citizen and area resident, has never been arrested, and has been a respected journalist for decades. Any police officer could discover that much within seconds using a city-issued laptop. Then why would an officer pat him down as if he were a felony stop suspect? Read the rest of this entry » .

Hartlines purchase WCLE stations
Littlefield, founders of Faith Memorial Church, who had a profound effect on Hartline, according to attorney and radio talk show host, Jimmy Logan. "What Steve brings to the station comes from the service mentor he had in his grandfather, M. E. Littlefield. This station has carried on the Empty Stocking Fund and he converted it into the Christmas Party for children here in Bradley County. Steve is a servant and he walks the servant model." Hartline's experience and perspective in the medium of radio has made him a savvy businessman who realizes, he says, how important it is to appeal to his audience not only with great music but also with personalities that connect with their audience and a rapport that does not irritate. "Paul said, 'I have become all things to all people.' I feel that I have become that way about this station.
