[OCT.

season is over. Cool weather is fast approaching, and, believe it or not, the
holiday season is only a few months away. As the hours of sunshine decrease and
the degrees dip into the lower double digits, it’s only natural that people
stay inside more and tend to be less active. Coupled with that, as the holidays
approach, they bring a time of gift-giving, helping those in need, spreading
good cheer....and food. Lots of food. It’s important to start watching your
eating habits now and preparing for those calorie-laden times.

Railers
never quit
By
Rick Hobler
[OCT.
14, 2000] Practice makes
perfect. In practice, the Railer football players have a phrase they use to
motivate each other. It goes something like this: "Nobody quits until the
final whistle blows." Last night, as the Railers played Taylorville, they

the Railers didn't win, falling to Taylorville, 46-6, they showed, with some
exceptions, improving execution on offense and defense.

 "Rules
of Engagement"
[OCT.
14, 2000] Rules of
Engagement is a different kind of war movie. First of all, it is about a new
kind of war - urban conflict. It depicts the other side of war, the human side,
where mistakes in judgment are admitted and sometimes even prosecuted. And Rules
of Engagement is also a movie about politics. And politics never seem to change.
