Utah municipal election results: See the winners of Tuesday's mayoral, city council races
Three Individuals Detained in Davis County on Suspected Human Trafficking Charges
Three executives from Rubicon Contracting LLC in Centerville have been arrested in a labor trafficking case involving exploitation of workers from Mexico. Victims were promised full-time jobs but faced low pay, inadequate work hours, and threats of deportation. They were also forced into poor living conditions and assigned tasks without proper training or licenses. The company is accused of controlling their wages through limited access cards and creating shell companies to manipulate visa workers. Despite these charges, Rubicon has denied any misconduct.
Group Texts: A Source of Stress for Most Americans, Especially Working Mothers
A significant majority of Americans, particularly women, report feeling overwhelmed by group texts, according to research by Secure Data Recovery. This issue is prevalent among working mothers like Mindy Dahlquist, who experience constant notifications amidst their busy lives. Experts suggest the problem stems from the challenge of managing a high volume of messages, often from close contacts, without harming relationships. While 20% feel compelled to respond to every group message, strategies like setting personal boundaries and utilizing phone settings to limit interruptions can be helpful. Communication and personal connection are key, as digital messages cannot always replace the value of face-to-face interactions.
BYU Dominates on Court: Men's and Women's Teams Each Celebrate Fourth Consecutive Win
BYU's men's and women's basketball teams have each started their seasons 4-0. The men's team defeated Morgan State 93-50, led by Jaxson Robinson, while the women's team overcame Wake Forest 67-44, with standout performances from Kailey Woolston and Lauren Gustin. Both teams are set for upcoming challenging matches in their respective tournaments.
Utah Bids Farewell to Pac-12 as Conference Dissolves Amid Shifts
The Pac-12 Conference's storied history in college football is ending, initiated by UCLA and USC's shift to the Big Ten and followed by other schools leaving for other conferences. Utah, once jubilant to join the Pac-12, now transitions to the Big 12, reflecting the changing landscape of college sports driven by strategic decisions and media deals.
