ruitt must launch public climate science debate soon

Dear Dave,

My wife and I have $72,000 in debt from student loans and a car loan. We’re trying to pay off our debt using the debt snowball system, and we each make about $45,000 a year. She’s a teacher, and she’s planning on going back to school for her master’s degree, but she’s thinking about quitting her job to do this. She’ll be able to make more money with the additional education, and she would only be unemployed for two years. The degree program will cost us $2,000 out of pocket per semester for two years. Does this sound like a good idea?

Dear Chris,

Elk Rides Ending Early at Hardware Ranch

Warm weather is pushing elk out of the ranch

Hyrum -- If you want to take a wagon ride through a herd of wild elk at the Hardware Ranch Wildlife Management Area, you need to take it soon. Unseasonably warm temperatures have caused elk to leave the meadow at the WMA early. For that reason, Division of Wildlife Resources managers have decided to end the wagon rides early this year.

If so, you’re not alone.
