For the last few years a Stevens County man, Michael Ross, has dedicated a lot of time and talent to making sure those who served our country are not forgotten. He spends five months painstakingly building the urns, but for Ross, he says it's the least he can do. Sawing, sanding, smoothing and gluing.  He pays attention to every detail right down to the purple heart wood.  "It's a wood that comes from Central America and it's actually purple," says Ross.

THIS is the Problem with Modern Parenting
Many people get queasy when talk of parental authority and childhood discipline comes up, especially because parents fear they will be blamed for abuse, or might stifle their child’s spirit or creativity. But is it more abusive to both children and the society at large if parents refuse to give loving, careful discipline to their children? If children don’t learn to respond properly to those in authority over them, or live their lives in accordance with time-tested ethical principles, but instead are trained to express their feelings and demand their way in everything, what will happen to them in the future? Are we simply setting ourselves up for a society of chaos when we train our children that there are no consequences for bad behavior?

The justification for going to war in Iraq thirteen years ago, was based on a 93-page classified document that allegedly contained “specific information” on former Iraqi leader President Saddam Hussein and the weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs he was apparently running. Now that document has been declassified and it reveals that there was virtually zero justification for the Iraq war.
