Trivia QuestionโWhat popular streaming platform released the viral docuseries "Tiger King" in 2020? Answer at the bottom of the newsletter |
Aggies' Winning Streak Ends with 93-66 Loss to Colorado State |
Alright, sports fans, let's talk about the Utah State Aggies. Remember that feeling when you thought they were unstoppable? Yeah, well, pump the brakes. Turns out, even the best teams can hit a wall harder than a linebacker on a mission. Last Saturday, they got absolutely smoked by Colorado State, 93-66. Ouch. Now, before you start panicking and throwing your Aggie gear in the trash, let's break down what happened. Colorado State came out swinging, hitting threes like they were going out of style. Fourteen of 'em, to be exact, at a sizzling 60% clip. Meanwhile, the Aggies' offense, usually a well-oiled machine, sputtered like a '92 Civic with a bad fuel pump. Their field goal percentage, normally a respectable 49.5%, tanked to 42.6%. And assists? Forget about it. Zero at halftime? That's like forgetting the cheese on your pizza โ a total disaster. Everyone has bad days. Even Steph Curry bricks a shot now and then. Coach Jerrod Calhoun said it himself: "Totally outclassed, outplayed, outcoached." The Aggies looked lost, confused, and frankly, a little scared. And in the cutthroat world of college basketball, fear is a luxury you can't afford. So, what's next? The Aggies have a week to lick their wounds and figure out what went wrong. They'll face Air Force in the regular-season finale, a chance to right the ship before the NCAA Tournament. But here's the million-dollar question: can they rediscover that swagger, that confidence that made them so fun to watch earlier in the season? |
Blackstone and Weber Merge to Revolutionize Outdoor Cooking |
Did you know that the outdoor cooking market is projected to hit a staggering $4.7 billion by 2028? That's a whole lotta burgers and brats! And speaking of big numbers, get this: Blackstone Products, the kings of the griddle, are joining forces with Weber, the OG's of the charcoal grill. It's like the Avengers of outdoor cooking, and it's about to change your backyard BBQ game forever. So, what's the big deal? Well, imagine a world where you can seamlessly transition from smashing burgers on a Blackstone griddle to slow-smoking ribs on a Weber kettle, all under one brand umbrella. That's the vision, baby! Blackstone, known for their innovative and affordable griddles, is teaming up with Weber, the legendary grill company with over 70 years of experience. It's a match made in BBQ heaven, and it's all thanks to Roger Dahle, the CEO of Blackstone, who will now be leading the charge as CEO of Weber. This is about expanding horizons and creating a more diverse and exciting outdoor cooking experience for you, the consumer. Weber gets to tap into Blackstone's innovative griddle technology, while Blackstone gets to leverage Weber's global distribution network. It's a win-win, and it means more delicious possibilities for your next cookout. With Blackstone's new headquarters and manufacturing facility in Providence, and Weber's global reach, the future of outdoor cooking is looking brighter (and tastier) than ever. So, fire up your grills, folks, because the BBQ revolution is just getting started. What innovative culinary creations will this merger inspire you to cook up? |
Your Next Job Could Be a Click Away: Utah's Virtual Job Fair on March 6 |
Did you know that Utah is virtually handing out jobs like candy? Okay, maybe not exactly like candy, but close. This March, a statewide virtual job fair is connecting Utah job seekers with a whopping 1,700 open positions. That's right, folks, opportunity is knocking, and it's doing so via high-speed internet! The Utah Department of Workforce Services is hosting a virtual job fair on March 6th, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Forget the awkward small talk and uncomfortable shoes โ this event is all about connecting you with nearly 50 employers from the comfort of your own couch. We're talking manufacturing, transportation, healthcare, government jobs โ the whole shebang. It's like speed dating, but for your career! Most people think job fairs are a relic of the past, a boomer tradition like rotary phones and sensible shoes. But actually, virtual job fairs are the future. Why? Because they're efficient, accessible, and let's be honest, way less intimidating. Plus, employers can schedule interviews, conduct video chats, and even extend job offers on the spot. Forget waiting weeks for a call back; you could have a new job before your lunch break is over!
Here's the kicker: you gotta pre-register at jobs.utah.gov and polish up that online profile. Think of it as your digital handshake. And if you're feeling a little rusty, they're even offering online workshops to help you maximize your experience. It's like getting cheat codes for the job market! So, are you ready to ditch the job hunt blues and snag one of those 1,700 open positions? Or are you going to sit on the sidelines while everyone else levels up their career? The choice is yours. But remember, opportunity favors the bold (and the pre-registered). |
Cache Valley Interfaith Choir's 'There's No Business Like Show Business' Lights Up Logan Stage |
Alright, music lovers and theater nerds, gather 'round! You think you know choir concerts? Think again. Because on Saturday, March 8th, the Cache Valley Interfaith Choir is about to drop a musical theater bomb on the Newel and Jean Daines Concert Hall at Utah State University. And trust me, this ain't your grandma's hymn sing-along. Imagine this: It's 7:30 PM, the lights dim, and suddenly, you're not just listening to a choir, you're smack-dab in the middle of a Broadway spectacle. We're talking full-blown costuming, mind-blowing projections, and guest soloists who can belt out tunes that'll give you goosebumps. Randy Wellbaum, the choir's artistic director, isn't messing around. He's promising a "full-scale production" that'll have you questioning everything you thought you knew about choir performances. Now, most people think choir concerts are all about stuffy renditions of classical pieces. But here's the twist: This ain't just any choir. The Cache Valley Interfaith Choir was born out of a need for community healing after 9/11. They're a melting pot of different faiths and cultures, and they're all about telling stories through music. And musical theater? That's storytelling on steroids. They're not just singing notes; they're bringing Broadway to life right here in Cache Valley, with hits from Rent, The Lion King, Les Misรฉrables, and a whole lot more. So, here's the million-dollar question: Are you gonna sit at home and binge-watch Netflix, or are you gonna experience a night of musical magic that'll leave you humming show tunes for weeks? Head over to www.CVIFCHOIR.ORG to snag your tickets. |

Here's a more interesting household hack: use a rubber band to open a stuck jar lid! If you're struggling to open a jar with a tight lid, grab a thick rubber band and wrap it around the edge of the lid. The added grip gives you better leverage, making it much easier to twist the lid off. This trick works wonders, especially when the lid is smooth and doesn't offer much to grip onto. It's a simple and genius solution that most people overlook! |
