The Senate on Thursday approved for the third time HB 4...

Senior Solution The Board of Trustees heard a presentation last week from Kirby Johnson of Senior Life Solutions, a program offered by Psychiatric Medical Care of Tennessee. T...

There's not much chance of flooding this spring, according to the National Weather Service (NWS). The county continues to slide into drought conditions after a winter that brought little snow.

BUFFALO — If its methanogenesis technology is successful, a new company could bring a second life to some of the Powder River Basin’s tens of thousands of coalbed methane wells. The Denver-based clean energy and climate tech company Cowboy Clean Fuels was recently awarded $7.8 million in state funding to pursue commercial scale development of a technology that will produce so-called renewable natural gas and capture carbon emissions using existing coalbed methane infrastructure, though not everyone is as optimistic as the company and its fun...
Did you know a sweet potato is not a yam? When it comes to the yam, there is a bit of confusion. What you’ve been referring to as a “yam” is most likely a sweet potato. You may have never even tasted a yam. The so-called “yams” in the supermarket produce section are nearly always sweet potatoes.

Sweet Potatoes vs. Yams “Sweet potato” and “yam” are often synonyms in recipes and at the market. They are two different...
