The Wyoming Legislature began its budget session this week. Did you notice? Are you paying attention? We hope that you are and that you are interested in what they approve because, while not every bill will impact your life, it may impact the life of your neighbor, but there is certainly at least one or Continue reading Pay attention: Legislative action may impact you Big Horn County ranked 10th in the state for child well-being. The Wyoming Children’s Action Alliance took 12 indicators and ranked the 15 most populous counties in the state. Ranking 10th isn’t bad but shows we have a lot more to do to protect the well-being of our children. But, some of the data is Continue reading County has areas to improve on children’s well-being Does anyone truly understand the presidential primary process. It appears to be much more convoluted than the electoral college. The Republican caucuses and primaries began Jan. 3 in Iowa and continue through July 31 with the direct election in the North Mariana Islands. Official delegate votes are then cast at the Republican National Convention in Continue reading Let’s have a national presidential primary While laying out pages tonight I listened to President Obama’s State of the Union Address.

I didn’t want to make boasts of playoff Continue reading Mixed reviews for Broncos season Two thumbs up for the town of Basin this week for the work on establishing conditions for a possible mineral lease and for keeping the Washington Park lease. The town has been working for several months on a lease agreement with Over The Hill, LLC, with the company continuing to come back to seek an Continue reading Two thumbs up for Basin Town Council Last week in this spot we took a look at 2011 and discussed a few things locally to expect in 2012. This week we look at a grander scale of what to expect. Expect to see fewer incandescent light bulbs as the phase out begins and we are forced to go with more energy efficient, Continue reading Lighting up a new year not all it’s cracked up to be What a year 2011 has been. As with any year there were highs and lows. There were tragedies and triumphs. We’ve highlighted these in our Top 10 and in our year-end review stories as we help you take a look back at the stories that impacted your life and the lives of your neighbors this Continue reading Busy 2011 draws to a close, 2012 looks even busier As 2011 draws to a close for some reason I’m thinking of one of the last lines in “Miss Congeniality” where Sandra Bullock’s character says “I really do want world peace.” Throughout the movie the joke is that every beauty contestant will answer world peace to the question what they want for the world. In Continue reading Wishing for peace on earth The U.S. Postal Service is between the proverbial rock and a hard place. Technological changes has hurt the organization with more people e-mailing, texting, conducting more business online including receiving and paying bills. This has reduced the number of people using their services, thus reducing revenues. But, they still provide a valuable service. There are Continue reading Cutting service and raising rates not the answer |
