    Anyone else have this issue: The more I know, the more I want to learn.
    As I am writing my heart month stories for this week’s packages, I occasionally come across a term or description unfamiliar to me. So I look it up. And then the definition or article has something else that sounds important, so I look that up.

    I was feeling overwhelmed yesterday, so today, I’m organizing my work. I have talked to probably a couple dozen people for Heart Month stories and I have pages and pages of notes.

    I've got so much stuff for this Sunday's American Heart Month package, that some of the stories will spill over onto Monday. But I don't know what to leave out, or hold for the next week, so it looks like a double hit this week.

    Launching into the second week of American Heart Month, I'm looking at stories on the leading-edge treatment options and how local heart specialists are helping patients live longer.

    I had a couple of interesting interviews over the past 24 hours. The first was with an ambitious Forest Hills High School junior who organized a Red Out across the district today in support of American Heart Association. Like many of those involved in Heart Association benefits, Spencer Ivock was inspired by his own family members' experience with heart disease.

    As if I weren't under the gun enough with three American Heart Month stories due for Sunday's paper, I just assigned myself another story for Friday.

  • Chiefs 26 - Johnstown Chiefs vs. Wheeling Nailers Mike Mastovich | Where does hockey fit in War Memorial future?

    The Federal Hockey League wants in. The Wheeling Nailers might be out. The North American Hockey League just might be interested though nothing is official.
    The United States Hockey League, not so much.
    Exactly what is the future of hockey at Cambria County War Memorial Arena for next season and beyond?

    Two years ago, Andy Richards saw an opportunity and made a pitch to bring a team from the then-fledgling Federal Hockey League to Johnstown.
    The Johnstown Chiefs had just announced the ECHL team’s pending departure for Greenville, S.C., after owner Neil Smith had finally lost too much money to remain in one of the most storied hockey cities in North America.

  • Mike Mastovich column photo Mike Mastovich | For Taylors, boxing is a family affair

    Andres Taylor realizes the significance of his younger brother Calvin’s trip to Terre Haute, Ind., this weekend.
    A World Boxing Foundation All Americas cruiserweight champion, Andres is quite familiar with the climb through the amateur and professional boxing ranks.
    This is a big step for Calvin Taylor IV, who recently won the Pennsylvania Silver Gloves title and qualified for a return to the regional event he nearly won last year. A berth in the national Silver Gloves Championship in Kansas City, Mo., will be at stake for the 106-pound fighter.
