by Emily Mayer Happy 2024! Exactly 100 years ago this week, news broke from faraway Egypt that Howard Carter had finally found King Tutankhamun’s mummy in amidst all those “wonderful things.” While the tomb had been found in 1922, it took quite some time to sort through all those artifacts before finding his sarcophagus.

Mice are on the move every year during corn harvest when they temporarily are forced out of their home and well-stocked grocery. My washing machine sits tucked away in the back corner of my patio, outdoors. This is not the first time mice thought the m...

Many of his cartoons revolved around cowboys, and I especially remember one showing the cowhand Curly wearing and using his hat in all sorts of...

Since a September loss at Northern Arizona, the Montana Grizzlies have literally done just about everything right. The Griz finished the regular season without another loss, beat a pair of Top 10 teams on the road, a Top 5 Sacramento State at home and then beat No. 5 and arch rival Montana State on the last day of the regular season, as head coach Bobby Hauck led Montana to its first Big Sky championship since 2009. That run also led the Griz to earning the No. 2 seed in the...
