Ramon Montelongo, a sophomore of East High School, chants during protest against the Utah Legislature’s passage of HB11, which bans transgender girls from participating in female school sports, at the school in Salt Lake City on Friday, April 15, 2022. Judge Keith A. Kelly on Friday, Aug. 19, 2022, granted a preliminary injunction sought by the families of three transgender girls, allowing them to seek permission to play girls sports this school year.Mengshin Lin, Deseret News Judge Keith A. Kelly on Friday granted a preliminary injunction sought by the families of three transgender girls, allowing them to seek permission to play girls sports this school year.The preliminary injunction stops the enforcement of Section 9 of HB11, a 2022 bill banning biological boys from participating in high school girls sports, while the court considers the families' lawsuit. It leaves the rest of the bill in effect, meaning that transgender girls can seek permission from a commission to play on girls high school sports teams. Related Utah governor vetoes transgender girls sports ban. Lawmakers are ready to override Utah Legislature overrides governor’s veto of transgender sports ban In a written order issued Friday, the 3rd District Court judge said he carefully considered the issue. He explained the preliminary injunction allows transgender girls to compete on girls teams "only when it is fair" — something determined by a commission created by the Utah Legislature.The order notes that Utah laws allow transgender minors to legally change their gender and that those involved in this lawsuit are undergoing medical gender transition treatments.Kelly determined that the families have shown they are likely to succeed in proving, through the lawsuit, that Section 9 of HB11 violates Utah's Constitution, specifically the uniform operation of laws clause. The order said it "treats transgender girls less favorably than other girls."The judge agreed with the families' attorney who argued last week that the three transgender girls have already shown they have faced harm from the ban.

Baylor head coach Dave Aranda smiles while speaking at the NCAA college football Big 12 media days in Arlington, Texas, on Wednesday, July 13, 2022. Aranda accidentally said the Utah Utes are joining the Big 12 Conference and then praised the BYU Cougars football program. LM Otero, Associated Press Those paying attention to conference realignment talks will know that there’s been heavy speculation that Utah could end up in the Big 12.Did Baylor Bears head coach Dave Aranda just speak it into existence, or was it merely a slip-up?Earlier this week, Aranda made an appearance at the Waco Rotary — it’s common for college football coaches to make such public appearances — and was asked toward the end about conference realignment.In the midst of his answer, Aranda accidentally said that Utah is joining the Big 12 instead of BYU, but then shortly thereafter praised BYU.“I know that there’s still opportunity in our league (for expansion) and potential suitors,” Aranda said. “I think that’s pretty real and that’s kind of happening right now. There’s talks that are happening right now.” Related These 4 players are Utah football’s 2022 captains Robbie Bosco looks back on a national championship season — and those what-ifs Then the slip-up.“I love the league,” Aranda said. “Cincinnati coming in, and Utah coming in, UCF and Houston. I just think that there’s teams that fit the Big 12 mold, the culture, and I think the brands are going to be way stronger.”A few seconds later, however, Aranda spoke highly of BYU.“I look at what BYU can become in this league. I think the onus is on us to kind of hold steady because they’re going to get better and better. I think the same with Cincinnati, and so I really like the league that we’re going to become, but I think there is an opportunity for more growth.”You can watch Aranda’s full appearance below. The talk about BYU takes place from about the 36:10 mark to the 37:40 mark.

Related Is the COVID-19 pandemic over? No. It’s still a worldwide ‘public health emergency’ TikTok-tastic: Videos carrying the hashtag #QuietQuitting have earned millions of views on TikTok recently with commentary ranging from soft reminders about the need for setting appropriate boundaries that separate our work selves from our private selves to rants against employers who are over-tasking employees and establishing expectations that job duties trump all other factors. There are also plenty of videos trashing quiet quitting as a problematic concept that, itself, can lead to deeper issues for employees.Career counselor Emily Smith recorded a TikTok video in which she lambasted the practice of quiet quitting and said those who take the skate-by approach at work are risking career advancement when they should really be looking for a better employment fit. Related Want to up your earnings game in ’22? No prob, just quit your job “Quiet quitting does not benefit you at all,” Smith said in her video. “I’m seeing all these people thinking that quiet quitting benefits them and not the company. That’s not true. Because, when you become apathetic, not only do you hate your job more, but you create a reputation amongst your colleagues and amongst the people that you work with. “Quiet quitting is literally wasting your time with this company and shooting yourself in the foot.” @weekdayremedy #quietquitting #careeradvice #careertok ♬ original sound - Emily Smith Job coach Allison Peck posted her take on the quiet quitting phenomena in her TikTok video, pushing back on criticism of an approach she says can be about finding balance.“I’m hearing people talk about quiet quitting,” Peck said. “What that means is that people are not going above and beyond any more. They’re not chasing hustle culture at work. They’re just doing the required minimum. “Essentially they’re doing what they’re getting paid to do. Why does quiet quitting have such a negative connotation, though? Sure sounds a lot to me about creating work-life balance for yourself.” @allifromcorporate0 Do you go above and beyond at #work ? #quietquitting ♬ original sound - Allison Peck ⚡️ In search of a deeper purpose: The fallout from pandemic-induced changes to the world of work are still being sorted out, but there’s a mountain of research data reflecting that workers are suffering from high levels of burnout and dissatisfaction and many have reevaluated what they do for a living through lenses reshaped by the tumult of the past 21⁄2 years.The country’s quit rate reached a 20-year high last November and has remained elevated as workers continue to look for new opportunities.A Pew Research Center study released earlier this year found the biggest driver for those who quit their jobs was higher pay, but running very close behind money issues was a lack of opportunity for advancement and feeling disrespected at work.Earlier this year, Benjamin Granger, Qualtrics’ head of employee experience advisory services and organizational psychologist, told the Deseret News that pandemic conditions have left employees burned out and reevaluating their professional and career priorities at unprecedented levels, and higher pay is just one of many things on the minds of unsettled workers. Related The Great Resignation: Burnout — and opportunity — are driving record wave of quitting “A lot of what we’re hearing from employees is that they’re exhausted,” Granger said in a statement. “They’re just whipped. As a result, many people are looking at their jobs, their companies, and work in general through a completely different lens. Many people are searching for totally new experiences and some are leaving the workforce outright.“We know from our research that one of the main drivers of this exodus is the pursuit of higher pay. But even more than increased wages, employees are looking for a deeper purpose in their work and opportunities for personal growth. A record number of Americans are leaving their employers because they see greater potential for growth by changing employers than sticking around their current organization,” Granger said.“Going forward, it will be important for employers to not only offer job candidates competitive compensation and a great work experience now, but emphasize their broader purpose and get more creative with how they define and offer opportunities for growth.”

Anti-abortion rights demonstrators and abortion rights demonstrators rally outside the Supreme Court in Washington.Andrew Harnik, Associated Press A Florida appeals court affirmed a lower court decision denying an abortion for a 16-year-old on the grounds that she is not mature enough to decide whether to have one.In a handwritten petition, the teenager — identified only as Jane Doe 22-B — had asked the lower court to waive the state’s rule that required consent of a parent or guardian to obtain an abortion.According to CNN, “Florida, which currently bans most abortions at 15 weeks, requires physicians to notify and obtain written consent from a minor’s parent or legal guardian before performing an abortion on the minor. Under the law, a minor is allowed to petition a circuit court to waive these requirements.”The Washington Post wrote: “The teenager, described in court documents as ‘almost 17 years old and parentless,’ ... had submitted a handwritten petition seeking a waiver of the state’s parental notification and consent requirements. Under Florida law, an abortion generally cannot be performed on a minor without the consent of a parent or guardian.”She was, according to court records, 10 weeks pregnant when she asked a court to let her end the pregnancy.For a parental consent waiver, Florida law requires a court to find “by clear and convincing evidence, that the minor is sufficiently mature to decide whether to terminate her pregnancy.”According to CNN, “The court needs to consider factors such as the minor’s age, ‘overall intelligence,’ ‘credibility and demeanor as a witness,’ ability to assess the consequences, and whether they understand the medical risks, according to the state law.”Per The Washington Post, “Escambia County Circuit Judge Jennifer Frydrychowicz denied the petition in what one judge with the 1st District Court of Appeal, Scott Makar, said appeared to be ‘a very close call.’” Related State abortion bans make it harder for arthritis, cancer patients to get certain drugs Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade Makar partially dissented when the appeals court upheld Frydrychowicz’s ruling. The panel, which in addition to Makar included judges Harvey Jay and Rachel Nordby, upheld the lower court’s decision, saying the findings “are neither unclear nor lacking” in a way that would require the court to reconsider. Frydrychowicz had written that the teen “had not established by clear and convincing evidence that she was sufficiently mature to decide whether to terminate her pregnancy.” At the time of her ruling, the judge seemed to leave the door open to reevaluation, noting that she “may be able, at a later date, to adequately articulate her request.”Makar wrote that “reading between the lines, it appears that the trial court wanted to give the minor, who was under extra stress due to a friend’s death, additional time to express a keener understanding of the consequences of terminating a pregnancy.” He said he would have returned the case to the lower court.NPR noted a similar case with a different outcome in Florida: “This past January, a circuit court judge in another part of Florida denied another woman’s petition for this same kind of waiver, in part because of questions over her GPA. A higher court ultimately ruled in her favor, though not before the case shed a very public spotlight on the amount of discretion that judges have in making these kinds of determinations and the complexities of navigating parental consent laws in general.”The Guttmacher Institute says 36 states have parental notification and/or consent laws requiring that parents of minors be informed or give permission for an abortion. Of those, three require both parents to consent. Ten of those states require just notification. In a medical emergency, 33 states let a minor receive an abortion, while 14 states permit a minor to obtain an abortion “in cases of abuse, assault, incest or neglect.”And 35 states have a process that allows for a court to give approval, rather than a parent. But some experts believe that with the overturning of Roe v. Wade by the U.S. Supreme Court, those laws are likely to change in a some states.As NPR reported, “People under age 20 make up 12% of individuals who have abortions in the U.S., and minors ages 17 or younger account for about 4%, according to STAT News — meaning at least 50,000 adolescents seek abortion care each year.”

President Joe Biden pictured on Aug. 13, 2022. Biden’s approval ratings mirror those of Jimmy Carter — will the new Inflation Reduction Act help him gain traction with America?Associated Press President Joe Biden and his administration have enjoyed recent successes, including passage of the questionably-named Inflation Reduction Act. But Biden’s approval ratings have remained low and he is now drawing comparisons to former President Jimmy Carter, who endured inflation and foreign crises. Since your columnists are old enough to actually remember the 39th president, we examine the similarities and the impact of congressional action on the elections.Biden recently signed the IRA, which supporters claim will lower prescription drug costs, fight global warming, raise taxes on millionaires and reduce the federal deficit. Detractors claim otherwise, also noting it will hire tens of thousands of additional IRS agents. This legislation will be a key piece of Democratic strategy to prevail in the November midterm elections. Will it work?Pignanelli: “I mean, isn’t it almost Orwellian — how can you call it Inflation Reduction Act?” — Jonathan Karl, ABC News  Prior presidential administrations, when faced with the horror of continual price increases of consumer goods, responded with curious strategies. By executive order in 1971, Richard Nixon imposed mandatory “Wage and Price Controls.” Gerald Ford tried the 1974 “Whip Inflation Now” effort using WIN buttons to encourage less driving, waste and energy use. In 1978, Jimmy Carter announced the “Anti-Inflation Program” seeking voluntary commitments to wage and price standards. None succeeded and all three presidents were out of office within a few years. Related Overall U.S. inflation eases a notch, but costs of basic necessities still on the rise The IRA legislation is the most recent variation of this approach. The bill does have important objectives regarding pharmaceutical costs, energy exploration and environmental programs. However, serious arguments abound, casting doubt about a positive influence on inflation. Further, any meritorious effects of the bill will not be felt for years.Americans have grown accustomed to complicated federal legislation with clever names designed to appeal to them. But they look elsewhere to determine their personal position. If inflation is still an economic concern by Labor Day, the IRA will be disregarded by Americans in how they vote. Related What does the Inflation Reduction Act mean for the average American? The one activity that remains inexpensive is searching the internet, which would have revealed to legislative sponsors the danger of trying to tackle inflation with feel good labels.Webb: The actual impact of the legislation won’t be felt for many months or years, so Democrats will be running on wishful thinking for the next three months. More important will be how voters are feeling about inflation, crime, the immigration crisis, scary world affairs (Russia/Ukraine and China/Taiwan), energy shortages and the general economy. And, of course, Trump looms large, unfortunately. Related Will the Department of Justice investigation hurt Trump or make him more popular? Most Americans, myself included, can find a number of things to like in the legislation. I want cleaner air, fewer carbon emissions and less expensive prescription drugs. But it comes at the cost of additional massive federal spending. And I think it’s fantasy to believe that more IRS agents and a tax on wealthy people will pay for the many billions of dollars that will help subsidize clean energy. Count on it: Ten years from now the debt will be even more out of control and we’ll still be facing massive problems.This spending is on top of the trillions of dollars thrown at a potpourri of programs in the last few years, which contributed to the inflation we’re suffering now. And a lot of that money hasn’t even been spent.I’ve watched politics for 50 years and I have little faith that immense new spending on vast new federal programs will solve America’s problems. I’d rather rely on private enterprise, free markets and American ingenuity and innovation.Biden is facing difficult issues that the country has not confronted in over 40 years including high inflation and perceived weakness in foreign affairs. Are the comparisons to the Carter presidency fair?Pignanelli: Biden and Carter share many personal characteristics including decency, commitment to family, religious devotion, general compassion and difficulty in communicating confidence to Americans. Also, both presidents enjoyed successful legislative records (Carter: deregulation of airlines and trucking) that did not parlay into high approval ratings. There are differences. Carter was an outsider to Washington, D.C., and Biden is the consummate insider. But the Biden administration is well advised to study this predecessor to avoid the pitfalls that can plague even the most honorable of leaders. Related Biden approval rating: Have recent wins helped boost his numbers? Webb: The Biden economy isn’t quite as bad as Carter’s raging stagflation (high inflation plus high unemployment and a stagnant economy). Carter lost his second term bid when Ronald Reagan asked, “Are you better off today than you were four years ago?” The answer was clearly no.Carter also suffered a disastrous foreign policy debacle when Iranian militants stormed the U.S. Embassy and took 66 Americans hostage for 444 days. Biden’s inept and bloody retreat from Afghanistan wasn’t quite as bad.     Related Opinion: Could Biden face impeachment over the withdrawal from Afghanistan? How will the new legislation, and Biden’s perception, impact the midterm elections in Utah?Pignanelli: GOP candidates will highlight that the IRA provides an additional $78 billion to the IRS. This tactic, combined with Biden’s unpopularity, will motivate conservative voters.Webb: Every Utah member of Congress voted against the Inflation Reduction Act and made persuasive arguments against it. Utah has suffered some of the highest gas prices and inflation in the nation. Biden has never been popular here and control of Congress is on the line. That’s why I expect GOP incumbents to win.

In this photo released by China’s Xinhua News Agency, a projectile is launched from an unspecified location in China during long-range live-fire drills by the army of the Eastern Theater Command of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army, Thursday, Aug. 4, 2022. China conducted “precision missile strikes” Thursday in waters off Taiwan’s coasts as part of military exercises that have raised tensions in the region to their highest level in decades following a visit by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Lai Qiaoquan, Xinhua via Associated Press Since Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan, the People’s Republic of China has conducted live-fire military drills and fired missiles off the waters surrounding Taiwan. It is clear that China is using Pelosi’s visit as an ill-concealed excuse to flaunt its readiness to invade Taiwan, as well as deter other countries from defending Taiwan. In addition to military intimidation, China has weaponized economic coercion, cyberattacks and misinformation campaigns to weaken the morale of the Taiwanese people. Beyond Taiwan, China has flagrantly jeopardized the peace and security of the Taiwan Strait, the security of the Indo-Pacific region, air and maritime transportation safety and international trade.However, throughout these provocations, Taiwan stands firmly in its commitment to peace and safety, and remains open to constructive dialogue on maintaining the status quo in the Taiwan Strait. We are resolute in safeguarding our sovereignty and democracy.Thus, on behalf of the Taiwan government, we call on the international community to denounce China’s irresponsible behavior, as their authoritarian expansionist agenda will not stop at Taiwan, but has already extended into the Pacific region, South Asia, Africa and Latin America. To date, over 300 parliamentarians in the world have openly denounced China’s military coercion. Taiwan’s government expresses its utmost appreciation to those who have spoken out in support of Taiwan, including the foreign ministers of the G7 and ASEAN, as well as senior government officials from the U.S., U.K., Japan, France, Germany, the European Parliament, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Slovakia, Denmark, Sweden, Australia and many more.Alongside our like-minded allies, we hope to safeguard Taiwan’s sovereignty, halt the expansion of authoritarianism, and uphold a free and peaceful Indo-Pacific region.Scott Lai, director generalTaipei Economic and Cultural Office in San Francisco

In this Oct. 20, 2012, photo, Irish linebacker Manti Te’o reacts to a play during the Notre Dame’s against BYU in South Bend, Ind. The Fighting Irish beat the Cougars that day, 17-14, on their way to reaching the national championship game.Joe Raymond, Associated Press Note: This story is part of the Deseret News sports team’s Flashback Friday series, which revisits memorable moments involving Utah teams.Notre Dame is synonymous with college football — the pageantry of the game comes full circle in the Fighting Irish’s home of South Bend, Indiana.The school claims 11 national championships in the sport, and a decade ago, Notre Dame nearly added another trophy to its case.The Fighting Irish’s national title chase in 2012 — which came up short, as they lost to Alabama in the national championship game — was a side story in a new Netflix documentary, released earlier this week, that revisits the Manti Te’o catfishing saga. Te’o, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who visited BYU during his recruiting process, was a star linebacker for the Irish for four years, and in 2012, he finished second in the Heisman Trophy voting. Related Why didn’t Manti Te’o go to BYU? That year, he helped Notre Dame go undefeated during the regular season, setting up the title-game showdown with Alabama.BYU was one of several teams who had a chance to derail that 2012 season — there’s even a brief clip in the Netflix documentary of the Cougars playing the Fighting Irish in mid-October that year — but Te’o and Notre Dame found a way to keep their winning streak alive.How close were the Cougars to springing the upset?BYU lost to Notre Dame 17-14 in a midyear matchup, and the Cougars led for over 23 minutes in that game. Related Manti Te’o reveals how he feels about the catfishing scandal in new Netflix doc What is Manti Te’o up to now? The fact it was a close contest wasn’t uncommon: Notre Dame had already won three games that year by single digits and had to beat Pittsburgh two weeks later in triple overtime.BYU, meanwhile, entered the game with three losses, two of which came by a total of four points in falling to Utah and Boise State. Four of the Cougars’ five losses that year were by six points or fewer.Te’o had a big game, finishing with 10 tackles, a half sack and an interception on the Cougars’ first drive. BYU took the lead, though, by breaking Notre Dame’s streak of 17 straight quarters of not allowing its opponent to score an offensive touchdown.The Cougars scored two touchdowns just over two minutes apart in the second quarter — both on short TD receptions, the second set up by a Kyle Van Noy interception — and BYU led 14-7 at the half.“They scored two touchdowns against us,” Te’o said in a Deseret News story recapping the game. “It made us mad.” BYU’s Cody Hoffman, left, and teammate #Ross Apo celebrate a touchdown as BYU and Notre Dame play Saturday, Oct. 20, 2012 in South Bend, Ind.Scott G Winterton, Deseret News Both teams had failed scoring opportunities — Notre Dame missed two field goals and BYU missed one, though the Cougars’ miss was particularly damaging. BYU had a chance to build a two-score lead in the third quarter but came up emptyhanded on a third-quarter drive deep into Notre Dame territory.The Fighting Irish, who scored the game’s first touchdown late in the first quarter, eventually regained the lead, using a short field goal and a TD run with just under 13 minutes to play to go back in front, 17-14.On BYU’s ensuing drive after Notre Dame went up three, the Cougars drove into Fighting Irish territory, but quarterback Riley Nelson misfired on a pass to a wide open Cody Hoffman on a drive that ultimately ended in a punt.“Here we are, playing against top 10 teams and we’re with them in the fourth quarter and we just can’t seem to close. That’s way worse than getting blown out,” Nelson said postgame.It was the Cougars’ last solid chance to earn the win, as Notre Dame drained nearly the rest of the clock on a nine-play drive that ate up almost six minutes of the time.BYU was normally stout against the run that season — the Cougars finished the year No. 2 nationally in rush defense — but gave up 270 yards on the ground to the Fighting Irish.Theo Riddick ran for a career-best 143 yards and teammate Cierre Wood added 114 yards, while George Atkinson III scored the go-ahead touchdown. Riddick broke off runs of 55 and 19 yards on the Fighting Irish’s two second-half scoring drives.  Notre Dame’s Theo Riddick (6) breaks out for a good run as BYU and Notre Dame play Saturday, Oct. 20, 2012 in South Bend. Ind.Scott G Winterton, Deseret News For BYU, the effort was close, but not enough to snap the streak for Te’o and Notre Dame.“We had a great chance — a number of chances — to pull off an upset,” then-BYU coach Bronco Mendenhall said. “But ultimately we didn’t make a critical play here or there right down the stretch to win the game.”Fast forward 10 years, and the two teams are meeting again this season, this time in a neutral-site game on Oct. 8. The Fighting Irish enter the year as a top 5 program, while BYU has high expectations, as well, coming off two straight double-digit win seasons.Can the Cougars spring the upset this time?

Olympus 3, Union 2 An emotional day came with an emotional win as Olympus persevered against the defending 3A champion Cougars after five sets. Union took the first point, and after a comeback from Olympus, the Cougars looked primed to take over with a blowout set point in the third. The Titans rallied to force a fifth set and won by the slimmest of margins. Olympus dedicated the win to the grandmother of senior outside hitter Allison Clark, who recently passed away. Clark started the game after attending the funeral earlier that day, arriving just before the varsity start time. “We knew that Union was going to be a tough team coming in. We took awhile to get going but started to improve as we trusted one another,” Olympus coach Preston Rosander said.Clearfield 3, Bonneville 2 For the second time in as many games, Clearfield went the full five sets with their opponent, Bonneville in this case, before claiming the win. The Lakers got the early lead and took the fourth set later on to force a fifth, then Clearfield ran away in the last frame with a 15-8 set point. “We had some younger players really step up and play a big role in our win tonight. We are ready to get back in the gym and continue finding ways to get better as a team. Our younger girls are really stepping up and playing big roles in varsity,” Clearfield coach Brooke Pehrson said.Northridge 3, Fremont 0 Northridge prevailed convincingly over an old Region 1 foe with a sweep of Fremont. Despite claiming the first set in easy fashion, Fremont gave the Knights all they could handle the rest of the match but came away with zero. “It was a good win to get under our belt! At times, we had to grind, and early in the season, that is sometimes the best thing for your team. Some of our key contributors are starting to feel comfortable in their roles! And tonight finally started to excel,” Northridge coach Mitchell Stevens said.Kearns 3, Logan 2 Kearns came away with a massive comeback to seal the win in five sets at home against Logan. After a dominant first set, the Cougars struggled and gave up a 2-1 lead to the Grizzlies. After an intense fourth set, the Cougars raced away for the win. “Paris Tuaumu led the team with various digs and service points. Maliyah Toone and Lealofi Talia responded with consistent attacks that led to many kills. It was a team effort from everyone involved for the Kearns Cougars,” Kearns coach Jon Diaz said.Wendover 3, Providence Hall 1 Wendover had Providence Hall on the ropes with a 2-0 advantage before the Patriots fought back with a dominant third set.
