There ought to be a law . . . |

In order to own gun there is a legal protocol that must be followed. There’s a background check, the purchaser must be of legal age, and after a mandatory waiting period you will become the proud owner of a firearm. Some gun owners opt to take safety classes, which is fabulous. It amazes me that with all a person has to go through in order to purchase a firearm, any idiot with enough cash or high enough credit limit can go into any big box retailer and buy their very own digital camera to go about town shooting whatever they choose… without warning. |

Neeson broke his nose as a young boxer |
|
Tuesday, March 29, 2011 |

Dear Ken: Can you share some background information on Liam Neeson, star of the movie “Unknown?” Neeson, 58, was born in Ballymena, Northern Ireland, where his mother was a cook and his father a caretaker at a Catholic boys’ school. An excellent amateur boxer as a schoolboy (that’s how his nose was broken), he worked as a forklift operator and truck driver before he became a professional actor in Dublin in 1976. His first big movie role came in “Excalibur” in 1981, and he has since starred in such movies as “Darkman,” “Leap of Faith,” “Schindler’s List,” “Nell,” “Rob Roy,” “Michael Collins,” “Les Miserables,” “Gangs of New York,” “Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace,” “Kingdom of Heaven” and “Clash of the Titans.” The 6-foot-4 Neeson provided the voice of the lion, Aslan, in “The Chronicles of Narnia” movies. He also worked on Broadway in “Anna Christie“ and on TV in the series “The Big C.” Neeson’s late wife, actress Natasha Richardson, died from head injuries suffered in a skiing accident in 2009. They have two sons. |

How good is CU's Wilkerson? |
|
Saturday, March 26, 2011 |
|
* CU's Aaron Wilkerson ran his consecutive scoreless innings pitched streak to 41 & two-thirds Saturday as the senior blanked visiting Ottawa (KS) 5-0 at Stockton Field. He's now 6-0 on the season after the four-hit shutout. He's a returning NAIA 1st team All-America pick and is well on his way to locking down another AA selection. Since losing his first game a year ago, the Waco, TX righty has reeled off 20 consecutive wins. For my money, he's the best I've seen at Cumberland. |

Know the icons, landmarks, cool sites of the Cedar City? By KEN BECK
Special to The Wilson Post
If you have lived in or around Lebanon for five years or more, here are 26 local institutions or sites you should be familiar with. Some are public places or unique events that reflect the history of the Cedar City, while other attractions are businesses, restaurants or just entertaining places to visit.
Check how many of these you are well versed in. If you’ve not encountered some of these, lace up your walking shoes and hit the sidewalk or put a gallon of gasoline in the tank and cruise down the road. All but four are within the city limit signs. Most of these places provide entertainment, enjoyable experiences, hearty eating, a boost to the local economy or do good works. (Note: Obviously, there are more than 26 attractions in Lebanon. Compile your own list to share with visitors or newcomers or email your favorite place around town to this writer.) A is for Antiques and the historic Arcade on the Square: Antique shops dot the Lebanon Square, from the fabled Cuz’s (look for The Thing) to the Downtown Antique Mall and those in between. The 101-year-old Arcade tucked in the southeast corner is in the midst of restoration and may well develop into the gem of the square. B is for Bay’s Bakery: Scrumptious sour dough bread at $1.25 a loaf. It’s great for banquets, breakfast toast or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Folks drive here from across the Mid-state to spend their bread on this bread. |
