New
ritual of 21 shots on 21st birthday presents dangers
-- even in Utah
For many college students, drinking is a rite of passage
and a common sight at 21st birthday celebrations. However,
for Karen Johnson, a junior majoring in graphic design,
it turned into something much more dangerous. Johnson,
who asked that her real name not be used to protect
her identity, was celebrating a friend's 21st birthday
when she noticed he was unresponsive and passing out.

'Complete
shock' leaves La-Z-Boy employees scrambling
When La-Z-Boy opened 30 years ago, it was a family-owned
business that Mark Nicholas said "considered their
employees their greatest asset." It offered competitive
wages, an incentive plan that encouraged the employees
to work harder in order to earn more money, and good
benefits, all of which enticed Nicholas to take a job
there to support his wife and growing family. /
