The space between their world and mine

By David Whitlock

Recognizing that the space between her world and the one she is slowly but surely entering is drawing closer, Pat Summitt, who has won more basketball games than anyone in NCAA history, stepped down as coach of the Tennessee Lady Vols last week. Summitt was diagnosed with early onset dementia last year, at the age of 58.
Early onset dementia attacks people younger than 65. Many are in their 40s and 50s, and some even in their 30s.

Why bad boys are bad

By David Whitlock

Last week was a bad week for bad boys.
First, 51-year-old Bobby Petrino, at the height of his career, got himself fired as the University of Arkansas football coach for allegedly trying to deceive the university’s athletics director about the coach’s relationship with the 25-year-old football employee and former volleyball player, Jessica Dorrell.
Then 11 Secret Service agents were placed on administrative leave for allegedly being involved with prostitutes in Cartagena, Columbia, while preparing for President Obama’s visit.

A journalist gets to see more than meets the eye of the public

Getting behind the scenes

By James Roberts

One of the perks of this job is that, as reporters, we often get special, behind-the-scenes access to various events throughout the community. Well, that and the occasional free lunch.
Last week, we were present for two mock disasters, one a crash on North Central Avenue and the other a shooting/hostage situation at Taylor County Middle School.
I was a bit bummed out that I was unable to cover the mock crash because of a meeting, but I still got to see our emergency service professionals in action later on in the week.

That's what I saw

By David Whitlock

The yellow street sign warned: “Stop ahead,” so I tapped my brakes, bringing my car to a complete stop at the intersection. I glanced to my left before releasing the breaks and stepping on the accelerator.

Then it hit me.
No, it wasn’t another vehicle. It was a series of scenes from the past, swirling around my car, streaming by me one by one and all at once, hurling me back in a time warp before swooshing past my car like a comet, leaving me craning my neck to grasp another glimpse as I idled by.
