Divorce

Anger and resentment, like a rock, weigh down our souls

The house is gone, but there remain two evergreens spaced just right to have once allowed for a set of front steps between them. Other than the trees, there's no indication that a young family once lived there in a tiny house that had all the potential of being a cozy dwelling.

Credit versus deduction — what’s the difference?

Knowing the difference between a tax credit and a tax deduction is important when filing your taxes.

A tax credit reduces the amount of income tax you may have to pay. This means that your taxable income has already been figured and the amount of tax assigned to this income is your tax liability.

Sex ed bill goes against philosophy of Utah code: Be prepared

Be prepared. While this motto works for Scouts, the law enforces preparedness by requiring classes and education that must take place in order to access various legal remedies and privileges.

Gary Herbert’s signature (or veto), would prohibit local school boards from educating our students on the full spectrum of reproductive health, harshly limiting the discussion of sex to abstinence and within marriage. (Note: Herbert vetoed the sex ed bill late Friday night, after this column was written and posted.)

Prison psychologist accused of faking rape

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Sacramento police responded to a 911 call from the Martinez home last April and found Laurie Ann Martinez lying on the floor, crying hysterically.

Her shirt was ripped open, her lip split, her knuckles scraped. She told officers she had come home to find a strange man who knocked her unconscious, raped her and robbed her. She went with them to the hospital for an evidentiary exam.
