Utah Department of Natural Resources Division of Law Enforcement director Todd Royce discusses boating safety at Jordanelle Reservoir on Monday, July 21, 2025. (Phot courtesy of Utah Department of Natural Resources) The Beehive State has already seen six boating-related deaths this summer, prompting calls from safety officials for Utahns to recreate safely. So far, four people have drowned while recreating on a paddle board, including 31-year-old Daniel Braga Figueiredo who died after trying to help a 12-year-old girl who was floating in an inflatable tube at Silver Lake Flat Reservoir. Authorities say a 23-year-old man died after a Jet Ski crash on Utah Lake; and over the weekend, 23-year-old airman Angel Harris, who was stationed at Hill Air Force Base, was killed swimming at the Causey Reservoir.

I don't like to armchair quarterback, but the statistics do not lie — 100% of these could have been prevented,' said Utah Division of Outdoor Recreation boating program coordinator Ty Hunter during a media event on the Jordanelle Reservoir Monday. As Utahns gear up to celebrate Pioneer Day on Thursday, Hunter and other officials are hoping they won't see a repeat of this year's Fourth of July — according to the Utah Division of Natural Resources, there were nine 'major' boating incidents during the holiday, including a case of boating under the influence that resulted in severe injury; and seven off-road vehicle crashes, three of them DUI-related and two that caused life-threatening injuries. 'We don't want those same incidents to happen over the 24th of July weekend. Everybody's going to be out recreating, make sure you're recreating safely,' said Todd Royce, director of the Utah Division of Law Enforcement. Royce's message is simple: 'wear a life jacket, wear a helmet and never operate under the influence.' During Monday's event, officials said there are several easy steps, in addition to wearing a life jacket, to stay safe on the water: Take a boating education course, which is required for youth operating a personal watercraft, but recommended for all boaters. Don't drink while operating a boat — drinking alcohol is the second leading factor in fatal boating accidents, according to the Division of Natural Resources. And while on the trail, whether via motor or human power, there are a number of important precautions: Always wear a helmet, which is required for riders under 18 years old, but recommended for everyone. Don't use drugs or alcohol while on an off-highway vehicle, or OHV. Take an OHV education course, which is required for anyone operating an OHV in Utah. Stay hydrated and always bring salty snacks, electrolytes and at least one gallon of water per person. Avoid the hottest hours and leave early or late in the day to avoid triple-digit heat. Wear sunscreen or protective clothing. SUPPORT: YOU MAKE OUR WORK POSSIBLE

Beyonce brings back iconic Crazy in Love tiny jean shorts 22 years later for Cowboy Carter tour
Beyonce is bringing back one of her most iconic outfits two decades later - and she looks better than ever. During Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter stop in Chicago at Soldier Field, she recreated her famous Crazy in Love music video ensemble, but added a bit of glitter to the look she first made famous in 2003. In the famed music video, Beyoncé, then 21, donned a Prada tank top and on trend at the time J Brand low-rise jean shorts. The pop superstar paired the early aughts look with red Stuart Weitzman heels. Ty Hunter styled the look and told Vogue that they chose the look because 'we wanted to do something that the kids could emulate and copy.' 'Everything we did prior to that was so big and so glamorous, so we wanted to strip it down into something that the kids could emulate. That was important to Beyoncé,' Ty told the fashion magazine in 2023. For her Chicago performance on Saturday, the Formation singer, now 43, opted for a custom glittering tank top and short shorts with blue gemstones courtesy of rising designer Sami Miro. After Sami, the designer behind the sustainable Los Angeles-based brand, shared snaps of the outfit on Instagram, fans - called the Beyhive - quickly praised the style, calling it 'legendary' and a 'favorite look' of the tour. Instead of 2000s-worthy red heels, Queen B updated the look with slouchy denim knee-high boots from luxury leather goods brand Loewe. The Diva singer accessorized with $1,200 diamond David Koma earrings. Beyoncé was styled by costume designer Shiona Turini for the high energy performance. Fans on X (previously Twitter) praised the recreation, with many applauding how much healthier her hair looked and how fit she appeared for the tour. The Cécred haircare founder has been showing off her love of jean shorts throughout her Cowboy Carter tour while embracing the cowboycore style she's helped to popularize. After Beyoncé dropped her country album in March 2024 the coordinating western wear aesthetic had a major moment, with many fans wearing cowboy boots, bandanas, and denim to her tour. She kicked off her Cowboy Carter Tour at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, in April, while wearing plenty of show-stopping ensembles, including a pair of tiny denim shorts paired with a sparkling silver top and thigh-high fluffy legwarmers. The Single Ladies singer also posed in a pair of denim hot pants to promote her collaboration with Levi's. In 2024, the Texas-born singer also busted out a pair of glittering jean micro-shorts to celebrate her Cowboy Carter album on Instagram. The Texas Hold 'Em singer showed off her western look with a vintage Willie Nelson T-shirt and red, white, and blue boots. The mom of three has been performing onstage with two of her children, Blue Ivy, 13, and Rumi, seven. Now, the Destiny's Child alum is gearing up to hit MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
