This week it's time to discuss alumni from what is literally the Big Ten's most valuable piece of real estate. With Beverly Hills to the east, Hollywood to the north east, and Bel Air to the north; the UCLA campus is literally located in the 'high-rent district'. (FYI - Illinois alum Hugh Hefner's Playboy Mansion is located just a half mile east of the UCLA School of Theatre, Film, and Television.)

Iowa State

Iowa State's offseason last summer was not ideal. A gambling scandal sprung a surprise on the roster and cost the Cyclones a number of important players. They managed to avoid danger against the FCS's Northern Iowa, which has beaten Matt Campbell's team and scared it two other times, but they couldn't avoid the somewhat frequent non-conference landmine. Iowa State plays Iowa every year -- the COVID season was an exception -- and is 1-6 against the rival under Campbell. That includes a loss last season, but last season also included a loss to Ohio to go alongside 2020's head-scratcher against Louisiana-Lafayette.

The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.

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.

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.
