Visionary Broadband said eff orts to bring high-speed fiber internet to Whitehall are underway through the ConnectMT program. Wyoming-based Visionary said a similar service was provided to Hardin. These projects, funded in part by federal Capital Projects Fund grants, address a longstanding need in communities that have been underserved due to economic and geographic challenges. Visionary Broadband said its eff orts underscore the company's mission to connect hard-to-reach communities with reliable, high-speed internet and a larger commitment to delivering broadband to communities that have been overlooked by other providers due to geographic or economic challenges. Whitehall Mayor Mary Hensleigh praised the project. "For years, families and businesses in Whitehall have faced challenges keeping up with advancing technology — whether it's connecting to video meetings for work or streaming movies at home. Now, thanks to this partnership, we are part of the digital future. This project will drive economic opportunities and improve the quality of life for everyone in our community," she said. "We've always believed that no matter how small or remote a community is, it deserves access to the same opportunities as any other," Visionary Broadband CEO Brian Worthen said in a news release. The fiber network will support gigabit-speed connections.

As per reports, pop star Dolly Parton has apparently “followed” Taylor Swift on Instagram. This has created an uproar on social media as many fans are speculating that this is a sign that the two famous and global pop stars are finally collaborating on a project together. Taylor Swift Might Collaborate With Dolly Parton, According To Their Fans There is also a strong reason behind such a speculation - Taylor Swift has been rerecording her albums and only one album, Reputation, is left to be rerecorded. Many think she will be collaborating with Dolly for it since Dolly has supported many artists. While neither Dolly Parton nor Taylor Swift has provided any update on a possible collaboration together, they have spoken about each other quite often. In September of this year, Dolly spoke to Variety about how she admires Taylor Swift for the way she has been able to handle her fame, her relationship with Travis Kelce and has been an inspiration for a whole new generation. This confession of Dolly comes after Taylor had spoken about Dolly last year in November to the Hollywood Reporter that Dolly was responsible for bringing a positive change in the industry. Taylor added, “Her sense of humour and mischief are easily my favorite things about her, because I think it forces the world to reconcile that a woman can be a serious artist and writer who also has raucous fun with it, can make people laugh and be in on every joke.” Taylor Swift Is Prioritising Her Relationship More At The Moment As per reports, Taylor is also busy giving more time to her personal life after wrapping up her legendary Eras Tour. She will be moving in to her home in Nashville to be more closer to her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, as he prepares to play for his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, as they enter the NFL playoffs next month. A few weeks back it was reported that Taylor has planned to stay with Travis so that he is more comfortable and calm while he enters the playoffs. This is the reason why Travis has upgraded the security system in his $6 million home in the Kansas City so that Taylor can live with him and feel secured and safe. While it is not known whether Taylor will be collaborating with the pop star Dolly Parton, one thing is for sure that it will send the fans into a frenzy if and when it happens. Fans are too excited about this unique collaboration and cannot stop talking about it.
