9/11 — An American 'duty' not to be forgotten

An ashy silhouette of the World Trade Center's north tower lingered in the air as the 110-story building plummeted to the ground 10 years ago, leaving behind skeletal walls and shattered souls. That smoky shadow looming in New York's sunny September sky is vividly etched in Lt. Cmdr. Sean Brady's memory. On Sept. 11, 2001, the Coast Guardsman watched the second tower rapidly descend from the top floor down, suffocating the city with pulverized concrete dust.

GH officials look at allowing skateboarding on streets

Grand Haven City Council is mulling an ordinance update that would allow people to ride skateboards on city streets. "Skateboarding is not a crime,' City Councilman Mike Fritz said at Tuesday night's council meeting. "It is really not a crime - I truly believe that.' Fritz said that skateboarding isn't different than riding in the street on a bicycle or jogging in the road. "We're not rigid with runners, we're not rigid with bicycles and we don't have to be rigid with skateboards,' he said.
