A new Deseret News/@hinckleyinst poll reveals the name people prefer for Utah's NHL team.
If Utahns had their druthers, they would go with Outlaws, according to a new Deseret News/Hinckley Institute of Politics poll. But it’s by no means a majority and close among all three candidates.

MY OPINION: There was a plan to dismember and partially privatize NOAA and the National Weather Service in 1995. It was a bad idea then, and weakening those critical public-safety agencies is a worse idea now. More at bit.ly/4ioxHqu
