Letter: looking for a non-working flat screen for a project

Maury E Lewis writes:
If anyone out there has a small to medium size flat screen that is not working and is just sitting around taking up space, I would like to recycle some of the parts for a project.

I took one apart a couple of years ago and I hope they still have the parts I want.

By Christopher Coombs

The No. 6-ranked Lindsey Wilson softball team took two games from Mid-South Conference opponent Shawnee State (Ohio) on Friday evening at Sparks Park.

The Blue Raiders cruised in game one, defeating the Bears 9-1 as they recorded four home runs in the game. Game two was a different story as LWC found themselves trailing into the fifth inning but a late surge pushed them to victory.

Cassie Matlock led the way for the Blue Raiders at the plate as she finished the day with four hits and six RBI's. Hannah Epperson (11-1) and Annabelle Ramirez (12-0) pitch complete games for the Blue Raiders as they picked up wins in game one and two, respectively.
