  • Karla's Kolumn: Turning 50

    Karla Pomeroy, Editor|Jun 16, 2018

    When you're young, I mean like elementary age or younger, you think 50 is pretty old. And, you're probably right. I mean think about 50 is half of a century and a century is old? But, then, you turn 50, and well, it's not that old. Don't get me wrong, this week, there were a few days when 50 (actually it was Monday, my last day at 49) seemed old. But here it is Friday afternoon and I'm looking forward to a free-from-work weekend, and 50 doesn't feel old at all. So perhaps the saying "you're only...

James didn't hire an agent and recently returned to UW for his senior season. James worked o...

    Alex Kuhn, Sports Editor|Jun 16, 2018

    My father, Pete Kuhn, passed away in a mining accident on Oct. 31, 2017. I know, a downer way to start the column but hang with me. This will be the first Father's Day I don't give him a call or celebrate with him, which is weird. Sunday will feel a lot like when his birthday passed, just that sense that I'm forgetting something paired with a hollowness feeling to the day. While days like his birthday and Father's Day re-emerge the deep pain from the day he passed, it also brings with it...
