Why do Utah’s urban valleys have such dirty air? Particulatepollution harmspublic health, quality of life and economic growth.But determining where it comes from and how to reduce it isproving surprisingly complex forUtah regulators and scientists.
STEVE GRIFFIN | The Salt Lake Tribune
An inversion blankets the University of Utah campus last week as the sun rises in Salt Lake City, where the air quality has improved since the 1980s, but it still often exceeds federal pollution standards.

DELTA — For more than a decade,a Utah company has been tout-ing its “revolutionary” low-costsolar technology, with projectsannounced in four states.But those four projects have yet

ruling overturning Utah’s voter-ap-proved prohibition on same-sexmarriage “has created a chaoticsituation in our state that requires

Admittedly, the WRX (and theassociated hyper, harder WRX STI)account for only 4 percent of Subaru’ssales. Even with Subaru’s phenomenalsales boom this year, selling more carsthan ever in the company’s history—more than 420,000, more even than muchbigger Volkswagen or BMW— that’s asmall amount. Only 16,000 in the states tobe exact.It gets smaller still. Until this year,
newWRX’s came only with a manualtransmission, which alienates a largenumber of new car buyers who can’t rowtheir own gears. Roughly 85 percent ofnew cars today are autos, and for goodreason: younger drivers look at the thirdpedal like a third nipple. What’s it do?Not done yet: The WRX is all-wheel
drive, right out of the box. Automotivepurists looking for sporty cars insiston rear-wheel drive only like it were agenetic predisposition.What we’re looking at here was the
automotive equivalent of a left-handed,foreign, experimental film with nosubtitles. Where’d the audience go?
That type of stuff is great forbragging rights, but better if youcan make it understandable forthe rest of us.To that end the 2015 Subaru
WRX tinkered a bit with theoriginal formula. Gone (forthis year, at least) is the wagon.Instead, you can have anautomatic— a CVT, no less. Andthe name “Impreza” was droppedfrom its proper name. Just callit the WRX, as if you called itanything other.Think Subaru let the WRX
down then by playing fast andloose with the rules? Not somuch. Tight just got tighter.Here’s what I mean.First, even though the WRX dropped
the Impreza moniker, it’s in name only.The car is still easily identifiable as adescendant of the Impreza platform. Eventhough the WRX shares no common sheetmetal with the Impreza, its heritage isunmistakable. The best of the Impreza stillmade it through to the WRX.In particular, that means the tighter
feel of the Impreza’s skeleton. Let’s talk
Everything aboutthe 2015 SubaruWRX is tight.
numbers: torsional rigidity isup 40 percent over the outgoingWRX and body rigidity is up 30percent. Lateral stiffness in frontis also up 14 percent. Asleepyet? Front and rear springs havebeen stiffened 39 percent and 60percent respectively. Whew, thatwas a lot.Although the base model
Impreza was certainly
worthwhile, the naturallyaspirated 2.0-liter engine in theImpreza had a habit of leavingsome unanswered questions.The WRX does its best to pickup for those shortcomings byoffering the 2.0-liter FA engine,borrowed from the turboForester, a turbocharged, direct-injection four that produces 268horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of
torque. The engine in the WRX,quite frankly, is a revelation.And although it cranks onlythree more horsepower, butweighs 60 lbs. more, the WRXis plenty lively underfoot.Acceleration from 0-60 mphhappens in 5.4 seconds (a half-second more in the automatic)and combined the WRX pulls

Jamie Dever was alone at the hospital with a nurse and midwife when she wentinto labor. The baby boy was big, almost nine pounds, he was face-down and shearrived too late for an epidural. The pain was terrific; the midwife held her handand repeated, “Be brave, be brave” with each wave of contractions. Dever was
unattached to the child’s father, and she labored without kin or partner. But she didn’tfeel lonely — she felt it was an experience between her and her newborn child.

What arethe bestplaces tohave a baby?·BY LANE ANDERSON
DESERET NEWS
America is slipping as one
of the best placesto be a
mother.New reports on women and
children show that the U.S. has
increasing rates of death and
trauma due to pregnancy and
childbirth, especially com-
pared to Europeancountries.
Somalia is the most diffi-
cult country to bea mother,
according to a report by Save
the Children. Mothers there
face a 1-in-7 chance of death
in childbirth, whilewomen
in Finland, which ranked No.
1, have odds of 1in 12,000.
The United States falls behind
many developed and develop-
ing countries, ranking on par
with Iran and Romania.

In more than two decades
working at a Central California
food bank, Sandy Beals has
never seen anything like this
spring.In the month of May alone,
FoodLink of Tulare County
served 22,000 people who came
in for food — 5,000 more than
it usually serves each month and
a 12 percent increasefrom the
same month last year. For Beals,
who runs the food bank, the
spike in hunger traces back to
one thing: drought.
“We didn’t think we would hit
a big peak until August, butit’s
already started to climb,” Beals
said. “And it’s going to get a lot
worse” as the end of the crop
season normally drives more
migrant workers toFoodLink’s
services.Tulare County is j
ust one of the
hundreds of counties across the
country experiencing drought, in-
cluding every county in California,
according to ratings by the U.S.

Parents navigate the trickyworld of online filters for th

·BY CHANDRA JOHNSON
DESERET NEWS
Michael Lowe was watching
Saturday-morning cartoons with his
4-year-old son a few years ago when
he learned firsthand how difficult it
can be to monitor what kidswatch.
Lowe left the room in his Calgary,
Alberta, home for about five minutes,
he says.“When I left, we were wa
tching
cartoons,” Lowe,36, said. “When I
came back, let’s just say we weren’t
watching cartoons anymore.”
Lowe’s son, like most toddlers,
loved to push buttons. Left unattend-
ed for a few moments with the TV
remote, the boy had stumbled on an
adult channel —one that Lowe ha
d
removed from his cable box viahis
service provider.
“Unbeknownst tome, they put (the
channel) back,” Lowe said.
On a family trip to Hawaii shortly
after, Lowe was teaching his son
about volcanoes with the help of
YouTube. While he could control
which video his son saw, he couldn’t
control the trailerfor a horror movie
that preceded the volcano videothat
left his son terrified.
All this gave Lowean idea: What if
there was a service that could offer
quality educational, fun programs
without the risk of changing channe
ls
or running into gory trailers? That id
ea
eventually became Kidoodle.TV, a Net-

Mary Lou Prince started this Encore Chorale for

Are company’sUtah solarprojects justpie in the sky?· BY AMY JOI O’DONOGHUE
DESERET NEWS
DELTA — For more than a decade,a Utah company has been tout-ing its “revolutionary” low-costsolar technology, with projectsannounced in four states.But those four projects have yet
to generate any significant power,despite detailed announcementsand news stories about plannedmultimillion-dollar solar plants.The failure to produce any signifi-
cant solar energy has several peopleasking questions about the compa-ny’s proposals and the technologyitself, and it has some officialswondering if the man behind theeffort is trying to generate interest— and money — at the expense ofa community’s trust.In Millard County, officials there
say they are frustrated over theirdealings with Neldon Johnson andhis company International Automat-ed Systems (IAUS) because of hisfailure to obtain necessary permitsand licenses associated with hissolar project, despite demandingthem since 2011.“(Johnson) has really been quite
hostile with us,” said Millard Coun-ty Commissioner Daron Smith. Theclaims of a power-producing solarinstallation generate buzz about itsinvestment potential, he said, butthe claims leave county officialsconfused about what is happeningin their own community.Johnson is founder, CEO and pres-
ident of IAUS, which has partneredwith at least four companies inpromising breakthrough technolo-gy that will change the renewableenergy market. He has built severaltall solar towers west of Delta nearHinckley.But county officials say little is
known about those towers.Despite Johnson’s claims of
revolutionary technology, repre-sentatives of the Utah state energyoffice and the national Solar EnergyIndustries Association said theyare unfamiliar with the technologyand don’t know how or whether itworks.In the past, IAUS and Johnson
have caught the attention of fed-eral regulatory officials because ofclaims he made about other kindsof technology that never came to

Guv: Court ruling has created ‘chaotic situation’· BY WENDY LEONARD

OGDEN —As Utah Gov. GaryHerbert called for “an expeditedjudicial resolution” Saturday, same-sex couples who thought they could
marry in Weber County were leftdisappointed.Herbert said Friday’s federal court
ruling overturning Utah’s voter-ap-proved prohibition on same-sexmarriage “has created a chaoticsituation in our state that requires
an expedited judicial resolution.”“Utahns deserve a fair and
complete judicial process, and Istrongly encourage Judge Shelbyto grant the motion for stay untilthe appeal can be heard and Utah’sconstitutional defense of traditional
marriage restored,” Herbert said.On Friday, U.S. District Judge
Robert Shelby struck down Utah’sconstitutional amendment—whichdefines marriage as the union of one
