TEN SLEEP – The Town of Ten Sleep will introduce a new wastewater ordinance at the council’s monthly meeting on Monday night, in an effort to accommodate industrial business within town limits, specifically the Ten Sleep Brewing Company. “Our attorney is writing it up now,” said Mayor Jack Haggerty on Friday. “It will set rates for industrial-sized entities and hopefully better define the requirements of the lagoon, and cover requirements for new sewer taps for businesses and residents.” Established just outside of Ten Sleep in 2013, the T...
A roundup of some of the most popular, but completely untrue, headlines of the week. None of these stories are legit, even though they were shared widely on social media.

NEW YORK (AP) — After another solid monthly jobs report, technology companies again led the way as U.S. stocks rose for the fourth day in a row to start 2018. They are on their longest new-year winning streak in eight years. The Labor Department said employers added 148,000 jobs in December.

I’m sitting here at my desk trying to ignore the chocolate one calling my name. I don’t usually ignore donuts. OK, I’ll be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever ignored a donut that has called my name. But, I’m trying to create a new me in 2018. You see this year I will have a milestone birthday. It doesn’t matter which one, but as the new year was approaching I got to thinking about my life and if I’m where I want to be when t...
WORLAND - If the Worland High School boys basketball team showed one thing during their first pair of games in close to a month, it's that they are fast learners. Before the Christmas break the Warriors were still getting a feel for their defensive press and traps. In their first games of 2018 against the Glenrock Herders and 2A's No.1-ranked Rocky Mountain Grizzlies, they showed a great amount of improvement as part of the Big Horn Basin Shootout tournament. Both games the Warriors were flying...
The NFL playoffs are upon us and while every media outlet is giving boring bold predictions for the Wildcard round, only at the Northern Wyoming Daily News will you find the most courageous playoff picks. Last year I went 9-2 with my picks, my only two losses were due to Aaron Rodgers going god-mode. To up the ante not only will I pick the winner straight up, I'm also going to include the spread. It will probably end in disaster because that's the only way it could go. Let's get to it!...
