WyoFile has acquired a photograph of a lynx in Wyoming, a landmark observation of a species currently considered absent from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Star Valley resident Jason Reinhardt, an avid houndsman , came across the animal while mountain lion hunting the southern Gros Ventre Range in February 2022. There was no doubt in his mind what it was: a tom lynx, judging by its blocky head.

The Los Angeles Lakers struggled to find any traction in 2023. While there is no questioning the greatness of Anthony Davis and LeBron James, the rest of the roster never stepped up. This offseason, the Lakers are reportedly aggressively trying to add another star, but any championship roster is defined by the pieces around those stars. The Lakers re-signed one of those pieces today. Guard Max Christie is coming back to the team on a four-year deal.

Shohei Ohtani’s 27th home run of the season — traveling at 112 mph — potentially injured a young fan during the Dodgers’ 6-5 win against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

The $700 million superstar hit a homer in the seventh inning and the ball appeared to hit a young fan in the stands in the head, as seen in a video on social media. 

Ohtani launched a 433-foot, two-run home run to right-center, which put the Dodgers ahead, 4-3, in the seventh.

The location of the Undercliff Grill & Bar has some interesting history. It's a family-owned venue located at 6385 Old Highway 71 in Tipton Ford, Missouri according to its website. This restaurant might be a hidden gem if you're looking for an interesting dining experience under a cliff.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

“Go home,” posts reader after reader. The comment streams of my articles about the migrants have a common refrain: “You’re not welcome here.” And much, much worse. I’ve had to shut down the comments on some of my articles due to downright hostile remarks. It occurred to me, however, that the migrants probably aren’t reading American news, which is published in English. Immigrant rights and housing advocate Amy Beck confirmed my suspicions. “No, I don't think they're aware because the majority don't speak English and don't follow local Denver news,” Beck said in an email. ”It's also not something I've ever mentioned to them. It's not important to me to point out haters. I'm usually talking with them about services and their rights. Also just helping them along their path. I've never discussed haters with them unless haters physically show up in a camp and we have to deal with them firsthand.”

Cal Mitchell - (1-for-2) RBI Double. After posting a 14.10 ERA in his last four starts, Jackson Wolf did not fare better against the Albuquerque Isotopes. The Padres’ No. 14 prospect tossed four innings of four-run baseball, striking out four. Wolf isn’t the prototypical swing-and-miss pitcher, and his lack of whiffs has been a major issue this season, as he now has a 7.71 ERA and 6.63 FIP, allowing nearly two baserunners an inning (1.93 WHIP). Lake Bachar allowed one run in two innings of work, striking out three batters.

Jacksonville Today

This week, City Council is set to begin discussing the proposed deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars to renovate EverBank Stadium. At its center is the agreement for a $1.4 billion stadium overhaul, the cost of which would be split 50-50 with the Jags after the city also covers $150 million in overdue maintenance and repair work. The city has said it plans to pay for its $625 million construction portion, for the most part, by redirecting revenue from a half-penny sales tax, passed as “the Better Jacksonville Plan.” But it’s not a straight line from the tax revenue pot to getting cranes in the air — the plan depends on budget changes to avoid debt on other projects, and using money that would have gone toward paying down that debt on the stadium reno.
