  • A year has past: What was done

    It never fails. The end of the year always makes me want to look back at the past 12 months and evaluate things, ala a John Lennon/Yoko Ono song. (You know: “So this is Christmas and what have you done? Another year over and a new one just begun.”)

    It’s rarely the eye-opening occasion it maybe should be.

    I didn’t rescue children from a burning building. I didn’t discover a cure for cancer. I didn’t end world hunger.

    (“And what have you done?”)

  • A Dash of Class: A healthy new year to you

    At the end of a year and the beginning of a new year, many people make resolutions.

    Many people resolve to lose weight, but I wonder if you have a list for 2011. Does being a healthier or better cook, or trying more recipes sound familiar?

    In a relatively short time, local metalcore band O’Kingdom has found an audience, reaching more than 1,000 plays of its video, “The Appointed Boundaries,” on YouTube within five days of its release.

    The video, which was posted Sept. 4, now claims more than 15,000 plays.

    What the band really needs now is a drummer.

    “Drummers are hard to find around here,” Elizabethtown guitarist Brian Judd said.

  • Pulse movie review: It's got grit

    bowsley@thenewsenterprise.com

    Joel and Ethan Coen had a difficult task in winning audiences over when they remade a film that starred one of the most beloved actors in American cinema, John Wayne.

    Both versions of “True Grit” are taken from the novel written by Charles Portis, but any fan of the Western film genre will make a comparison to the 1969 film, which won Wayne his first and only Best Actor Oscar.

  • My Kitchen, Your Recipe: Rita Carraway's 2x4 Soup

    The women’s group of my church, Radcliff Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), holds its annual church bazaar on the first Saturday in November.

  • Dash of Class: Recipes for sharing

    By NORA SWEAT

    Two days before Christmas and all through the house,

    Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

    Thank heavens since we have lived in this house (37 years), we have never had a mouse (knock on wood).

    Things have begun to slow down here, the presents are all wrapped and in shopping bags depending on where they are going.
