A pair of recently surfaced Ford patent filings deal with ways to make car seats safer, including better integration with airbags. The first patent filing, which was published by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) June 18, 2024, after being filed by Ford on May 26, 2023, describes an airbag designed specifically to protect children in car seats. The seating position alone may not be a guarantee of safety, as even family-oriented vehicles like minivans don’t always provide the expected level of rear-seat protection.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

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.

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.
