While cleaning the kitchen one Sunday afternoon, my daughter asked why one of my houseplants looked like the letter "S." Children always seem to find our faults. The plant I had hoped to hide until I could take some cuttings and re-start it this summer was put in the spotlight. However, it was a great opportunity for some plant-based learning for my daughter and a lesson for me. The plant now in the spotlight is a jade plant that was purchased about six years ago. Originally, the jade was close...

By the luck of the schedule, the Carrington girls basketball team faced the top-rated squads in both the A and B divisions in back-to-back games February 1 and 6.

He would end the night...
Carrington didn't have their A-game, at least as far as long-range shooting was concerned, but that was good enough Friday, February 2.
