When Utahns pay their property taxes for local schools, the money raised goes directly to their local school districts — but a bill moving through the Utah Legislature could redirect those dollars to a fund state lawmakers control, allowing them to use the money for other purposes. The way Utah schools get their money may soon change — if a bill in the Utah Legislature, which would require local property taxes to go through the state’s general fund, passes.

Just over a mile from where Patricia Flores has lived for almost 20 years, a battery smelter plant spewed toxic elements into the environment for nearly a century. Exide Technologies in southeast Los Angeles polluted thousands of properties with lead and contributed to groundwater contamination with trichloroethylene, or TCE, a cancer-causing chemical. Since Exide declared bankruptcy in 2020, California has invested more than $770 million to clean the various properties. But much more cleanup is needed, and with Donald Trump’s return to the White House, those efforts are uncertain. “The groundwater that was found to have TCE is spreading,” said…

As the New York Giants enter yet another crucial offseason under the current regime led by general manager Joe Schoen, their top priority is finding their next quarterback. Although many expect them to find their long-term solution in the 2025 NFL draft, Schoen has not ruled out the possibility of trading for a veteran quarterback. Recently, the Giants have been linked to Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. There are conflicting reports, but some feel that the Rams would want the Giants’ first-round pick (No. 3 overall) in return. However, ESPN insider Adam Schefter does not believe there is any chance…
An older woman in southeast Wyoming is hospitalized with bird flu, state health department officials said Friday. It’s the state’s first human case of Type A H5N1 influenza, which is spreading through animals and some people. Nearly 70 people in the U.S. have been reported infected with bird flu in the last year, according to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, though researchers and studies suggest that’s likely an undercount. The woman, who lives in Platte County, Wyoming, likely was infected through direct contact with an infected poultry flock at her home, the state health department…
Last March in NFL free agency, the New York Giants were active but did not sign any players to what could be called mega contracts — deals that are worth $20 million or more. This year could be different. With an estimated $50 million in available salary cap space, they could be major players for some of this year’s most coveted free agents. Marcus Mosher of The 33rd Team believes Giants general manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll could be major players for three unrestricted free agents that will be warranting mega deals this offseason. The first, naturally,…
Throughout the 2024 season, Saquon Barkley proved time and again that the New York Giants should have made a bigger effort to retain him. Forget his record-breaking season — although that was a huge kick in the mouth — Barkley is genuinely a good human being. If you know anything about Barkley, you know he’s a man of the people. He’s down-to-earth and friendly, was a Walter Payton Man of the Year nominee in 2022, and would give someone the shirt off his back if they needed it. At the Philadelphia Eagles’ Super Bowl parade on Friday, he showed the…
The New York Giants have a lot to work on during the offseason. They need a quarterback, they need receivers that can (and will) catch the ball to help Malik Nabers, they need an offensive line that actually protects the quarterback, and they need defensive players who actually make tackles. Before the 2024 season started, Next Gen Stats and Amazon Web Services collaborated on a new artificial intelligence model designed to estimate all 11 defenders’ chances of making a tackle every tenth second of every play from scrimmage. They called this Tackle Probability. Using this model, metrics were tracked and…
