If you haven't received your copy of this week's Lamar Times, you need to go get a copy. This week, the paper comes with a copy of PineBelt's Sports.com Football 2011 magazine. It features various stories and schedules of area football teams. There are several stories about the Lumberton Panthers. Josh Mlot wrote an interesting article titled, "Who Will(is) be the Panther's new QB. . .?" Players from the Lumberton Panther's are featured throughout the magazine. The Panthers are featured on page 8, there's a copy of the 2011 football schedule (there are only three home games, so get ready to hit the road to support the Panthers) on page 48 there's a pictorial featuring seniors, Charles Jenkins, Keshod Willis and James Carr another article is featured on page 50 and the magazine closes out with a list of players on the Future Watch and there you will see that Jatarrin Clark RB/LB is one of the featured players. In a seperate write-up, Mlot said that Lumberton's victory over Kemper County was ignited by a "55-yard scoring pass from Kion Willis to Geroyce Sibley. . two and a half minutes into the game" and that "Trey Toney was the x-factor, scoring on a 75-yard kick return and a 71-yard interception return to spark the Panther side to victory." These and other exciting sport stories are available in this week's edition of the Lamar Times. So, go out and get your copy of Lamar Times or take a look at the stories and pictures on pinebeltsports.com.

FY Budget 2015: Pills and Potions

-
Image
I called this post the pills and potions edition because after looking at the budget that was presented; it's obvious this board is overdosing on something. I can't tell where any real cuts were made to the budget; it seems the same. The fact that the board paid Richard Rose $1, 600 to prepare this budget is a joke. Why do we have a city clerk if she cannot prepare a budget? What is she doing all day other than reading the Lumberton Informer or thinking of her next lie? The board claimed that Richard Rose was doing this out of the goodness of his heart, that he knew the City of Lumberton was not in a position to pay him. So, rather than charging the normal going rate for an embattled city manager that was allegedly terminated for not reporting to work and other matters; Rose decided he will charge the fiscally challenged City of Lumberton a mere $1,600 and a motorcycle. Now, keep in mind, the board never voted to hire Richard Rose but somehow, he received a check and a moto...

Kim Rogers: A Phenomenal Woman

I've always said that I don't offer balance throughout this blog. It seems that most of the focus is placed on the bad things or more gossipy topics, but I think today is a good day to give credit where credit is due. I know she don't do what she do for attention or accolades but I would like to tip my hat to Mrs. Kim Rogers, founder of the KeKe B Foundation. Kim, like many other women of our community, is a testament to the power of hop, courage and resilience of a loving mother. I don't know how she does it but she has chosen to take a stand when others would have buckled under pressure. Her dedication and courage has touched so many people in so many ways. The work she's doing through the KeKe B Foundation will be a beacon for many generations to come and the she many never realize the impact her courage has made in the lives of others. But despite it all, she is still pressing forward. Kim does not want another parent to experience what she had to experience ...

Stealing Elections: Lumberton Style

Last night when I went to the Ben Barrett Voting Center to watch the counting of the vote, I entered the building about 10 minutes before the polls closed and the picture above is what I saw. Throughout the day, many people expressed their concerns that the poll workers didn't match the demographics of the City of Lumberton. I shrugged it off after someone texted me, assuring me that the election was going to be fair. Well, that was not the case. Later in the day, a voter came to me with evidence that the votes had been compromised. They gave me two torn affidavit ballots that were torn up and thrown in the trash in the women's restroom at the voting center. Interesting. There was another person that came to me about the conversation they overheard between Cora Rogers and her mother, Voncile Richardson. It seems that Ms. Voncile wanted to cast a vote for me but her daughter, Cora Rogers, instructed her to mark the ballot for Kent Crider. Interesting. Last ...
