Two youth waterfowl hunts in Utah this month

Hunters 17 years of age and younger will have Utah’s marshes—and the ducks and geese that go with them—all to themselves during two days in September.

A special Youth Waterfowl Hunt will be held in the Northern Zone on Sept. 22. In the Southern Zone, a youth hunt will be held on Sept. 29.

Those of us who have taught international issues for decades have something to offer those who have not.  Internationalism, new world order, world order, and globalism are synonyms for world government.  Other terms such as inter-nationalism, multilateralism, politicization, integration, free trade, commonality, convergence, unification, harmonization, open borders, are often used in conjunction with these synonyms to make them more fashionable and acceptable.

        South Africa has been thrown into the news because of President Donald Trump's recent tweet that he instructed his secretary of state to "closely study" alleged land seizures from white farmers in South Africa.

More and more Americans are converting to vegetarianism and veganism. The number of vegans increased by 600 percent between 2014 and 2017. More than 7 million Americans are now vegetarian.

Predominantly plant-based diets have benefits -- but they can also cause underappreciated health problems.

Few occasions are more joyous than the birth of a child. But for scores of families, the arrival of a newborn can also augur heartbreak.

Each day, nearly 100 U.S. babies are born with congenital heart defects. Many will not make it to their first birthday. Fortunately, several breakthrough technologies have emerged in recent years that could save many of these babies. It's time we put them to more widespread use.

A leaked memo circulating in the White House calls for electricity consumers to bail out struggling coal and nuclear plants by mandating that a portion of energy be purchased from certain failing suppliers.

This proposal doesn't make sense. Following through would undermine the market-driven forces that have boosted U.S. energy production, saved money for consumers, and helped the environment.

Since President Trump took office, the U.S. Department of Energy has supported an '"all-of-the-above" approach to domestic energy production.

Coastal-state politicos are scrambling to block a federal plan to expand offshore oil and natural gas drilling. In June, governors from five East Coast states condemned the initiative. In July, congressmen tried, and failed, to insert an anti-drilling amendment into a spending bill.

They claim opening America's coasts to oil and gas exploration will put the health and prosperity of local communities at risk. This argument doesn't hold water at any depth.
