WORLAND – Today is National Popcorn Day, meaning it’s the day of the year to eat one of the most popular snacks in America. However, there may be some questions about popcorn, some that you were too busy eating to ask. According to popcorn.org, popcorn is a whole grain maize product that originates from a wild grass. The kernel is the seed of this grass and is made up of three parts, the endosperm, germ and pericarp. The pericarp may also be known as hull or bran. Popcorn is grown in the “Corn Belt” of the United States. This is where the major...
WORLAND — At first it looked like things were going to get really ugly for the Worland Lady Warriors in their 3A Northwest girls basketball contest against the Powell Lady Panthers, but the in the second half the young Lady Warriors grit and ground their way to make things a little closer. Ultimately, they fell 40-30 but their play in that second half could be a building block for their next set of games. “We needed to knock down more shots in the first half. We had one three in the first hal...

The Chargers went Chargers, doing what they do best and disappointing everyone. I'm sure even the Pats were disappointed, they put in two weeks of work, expecting a dogfight and LA doesn't even have the courtesy to play to their potential. Watching the rewind of that game it really looked like the...
WORLAND – A new federal law requiring hospitals to post their prices doesn’t mean that consumers will actually pay the listed price. Section 2718(e) of the Public Health Service Act, which was enacted as part of the Affordable Care Act requires all hospitals in the United States to make public, as of January 1, the prices of services offered. But the public price advertised to the public may or may not be the price paid by consumers. According to a statement from Banner Health, who manages Washakie Medical Center in Worland, “It is impor...
I have not been able to fathom the complete hypocrisy of the entertainment world. I'm not talking about the allegations against Harvey Weinstein and other Hollywood actors and industry executives. What he and other Hollywood types did and have done is despicable and inexcusable. What I am talking about is that in Hollywood, until last year, those types of actions have seemingly been excused away and accepted. I don't know what changed but it is good that it did. I'm talking about the fact that...
