The University of Nevada, Reno announced it will not forfeit its upcoming women’s volleyball game against San Jose State Oct. 26 despite multiple requests from players to do so.A university spokesperson told Fox News Digital Thursday the program would not forfeit the match because it would be a violation of state law. “The university made the decision not to declare a forfeiture and move forward with hosting the match as scheduled based on several factors. As a public university, the university is legally prohibited by Section 24 of the Nevada Constitution and other laws and regulations to declare a forfeit for reasons related to gender identity or expression,” the spokesperson said. Article I, Section 24 of the Nevada Constitution provides that “Equality of Rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by this state or any of its political subdivisions on account of race, color, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, ancestry or national origin.”CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMHowever, that constitution was revised in 2022 when Nevada voted to adopt the Equal Rights Amendment, which added gender identity to the list of protections. Nevada state Sen. Pat Spearman, a Democrat from North Las Vegas who co-sponsored the bill to get it on the ballot, said the law has helped transgender people maintain their identity.”As a state university, a forfeiture for reasons involving gender identity or expression could constitute per se discrimination and violate the Nevada Constitution,” the university’s statement added. Twenty-three states have laws in place that restrict the inclusion of transgender athletes in women’s sports. One of those states, Idaho, is home to Boise State, one of the first programs to forfeit a match against San Jose State. Idaho Gov. Brad Little issued an executive order to carry out the Defending Women’s Sports Act in August, which is aimed at encouraging schools to ensure that only biological females compete in girls and women’s sports. TRUMP CALLS TRANSGENDER INCLUSION IN WOMEN’S SPORTS POLICIES ‘SO FAR OUT’Multiple states filed lawsuits and enacted their own laws to address this issue after the Biden-Harris administration issued a sweeping rule that clarified that Title IX’s ban on “sex” discrimination in schools covers discrimination based on gender identity, sexual orientation and “pregnancy or related conditions,” in April. The administration insisted the regulation does not address athletic eligibility. However, multiple experts presented evidence to Fox News Digital in June that it would ultimately put more biological men in women’s sports. The Supreme Court then voted 5-4 in August to reject an emergency request by the Biden administration to enforce portions of that new rule after more than two dozen Republican attorneys general sued to block the Title IX changes in their own states.However, Nevada is not one of those states. The Silver State has been more compliant with the Democratic-leaning agenda on transgender athletes in women’s sports. So, now Nevada’s volleyball team will have to prepare for a match knowing multiple players will likely not participate.The university also cited the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution for choosing not to forfeit the match, claiming that playing against a transgender opponent is a right of free speech. “We also acknowledge that a student athlete’s choice to play in the same match may also be intended as free expression protected by the First Amendment. Consequently, a forfeiture declared by the university prior to the match for reasons involving gender identity or expression could violate the rights of our student athletes whether they choose to compete or not,” the spokesperson said. By that same thinking, the program also said it promises that any player who chooses not to play in the match will not face consequences. “A student athlete’s refusal to participate in the match with San Jose State University can be interpreted as free expression,” the statement said. Nevada players initially said in a statement to OutKick Monday that they planned to forfeit their match against the Spartans to “stand in solidarity” with Southern Utah, Boise State, Wyoming and Utah State, who have all pulled out of their matches against the Spartans.Nevada team captain Sia Liillii met with Republicans, former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin and Nevada Senate candidate Sam Brown after her team’s win against Utah State on Tuesday and reaffirmed her stance about not competing against San Jose State. “I know what our team is going to do, and we are going to have integrity,” Liillii told the Reno Gazette Journal. “I think this is the toughest thing our team has gone through, but I’m just glad I have so many brave young women behind me, and I get to be the captain of this team.”Liillii said the players have had direct conversations with Nevada Athletic Director Stephanie Rempe, but they have not changed the program’s mind about forfeiting. The players’ preference to forfeit drew praise from Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo, who commended the players for standing up for what they believe in. It also brought praise from multiple players on San Jose State’s team who have shared a court with a transgender teammate for multiple seasons. “Round of applause to the girls of the (Nevada Wolf Pack) volleyball team,” San Jose State women’s volleyball player Brooke Slusser wrote on X. “Deciding to go against what the school was forcing on you as young women and taking a stand for what you believe takes courage! Another great step in the right direction for women’s sports!”Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

A recent social media post is sparking a debate about how often a person should throw away kitchen spices.”This is your annual reminder that your spices need to be replaced every 6 months for optimal potency. If you haven’t replaced your nutmeg, ginger, cloves, allspice, and cardamom since last Christmas, please buy fresh spices!” X user “Beth,” who lives in Oregon, wrote on the platform.The post has been viewed more than four million times, and triggered a lot of discussion – with some people saying that Beth’s “reminder” was ridiculous. FRIED APPLE CRISP RECIPE IS A CINNAMON-RICH DESSERT FIT FOR THE FALLBeth, who requested her surname be omitted for privacy reasons, told Fox News Digital that she did not intend for her post to go viral nor did she plan on starting a discussion about spice storage.”I was intending the post for my small circle of baking mutuals. I am honestly shocked that it went beyond that,” she said. Beth said she made the post while she was replenishing her spices in the bulk section of her grocery store, and “thought it might be a fun reminder for my friends.” For any aspiring cooks, Beth recommends buying spices from the bulk section at the grocery store and “just buying an ounce or two at a time.”DOLLY PARTON AND HER SISTER SHARE THEIR ‘SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE’ RECIPE: ‘PERFECT FOR THE FALL'”I can usually freshen my spices for roughly $5,” she said. “It helps greatly with having control on your level of spice when baking and cooking.”While Beth’s post certainly ignited a discussion online, Fox News Digital spoke to a spice expert to find out if her claim was valid.Replacing spices every six months might be overkill, David DeSouza, president of Monterey Bay Herb Co., told Fox News Digital in an email. Monterey Bay Herb Co. is a California-based company that sells bulk herbs. For more Lifestyle articles, visit www.foxnews.com/lifestyle”While there isn’t a definitive scientific answer, most dried herbs and spices last a very long time – two to four years is not uncommon,” he said.  If a person is unsure if a spice is good to use, “use your senses,” he said, and if it smells, looks or tastes strange, do not use it. DeSouza said spices don’t necessarily go bad, but they do “lose flavor and aroma over time.” “A good rule of thumb is that ground spices last one to three years and whole spices last longer than that,” he said.The way a spice is stored can also impact how long it stays fresh, he said, adding, “individual preferences vary” about whether a spice is still usable.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTEROn the website of McCormick & Co., a spice manufacturer based in Maryland, there is no blanket rule for when a spice should be thrown away.Some spices – vanilla extract and salt – have an “indefinite” shelf life, the website said. Other extracts last about two to three years.Whole spices like peppercorns remain usable for up to four years, the website said.Grinding a spice, however, takes off its life expectancy by about a year, according to McCormick & Co. Spices like ground ginger, cumin, paprika and chili powder have a shelf life of about two to four years, the website said.And “ground and whole leafy herbs” – think basil, oregano and rosemary – last the shortest at about one to three years, the site said.”All of us have a few jars that have been sitting in the pantry for over a decade,” said McCormick & Co.’s website. “It’s okay to let these spices go.”

Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, speculated Thursday that the reason Pennsylvania is trending red could be related to former President Donald Trump’s proposal on tariffs, warning that voters in the battleground shouldn’t trust Vice President Harris’ promise to revive American manufacturing.”This is where President Trump gets the most criticism, but it’s also where President Trump is the most right,” Vance said at a campaign stop in Pittsburgh, referencing Trump’s plan to implement tariffs as a way to discourage imports and drive domestic production. Harris has criticized the plan as risking price hikes. “If you are a business, and you rely on foreign slave labor at $3 a day, the only way to rebuild American manufacturing is to say, if you want to bring that product made by slave labor back into the United States of America, you’re going to pay a big fat tariff before you get it back into our country,” Vance said. “My message to Pennsylvanians: don’t trust anybody, especially Kamala Harris, when she tells you she’s going to rebuild American manufacturing without forcing the Chinese to pay a tariff,” he continued, speaking to voters in the critical swing state. “There is no way to do it unless you’re fighting hard against the people who are stealing our jobs and stealing our manufacturing industries, you got to do it. And if you’re not doing it, you’re not serious about rebuilding the American middle class.” TRUMP RIPS HARRIS ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION DURING LATINO VOTER TOWN HALL: HISPANIC VOTERS ‘MOST AGAINST IT’Vance was responding to a reporter’s question about what county in Pennsylvania the Trump campaign would turn to first to determine whether they won the election. “I’m not much of a political prognosticator. The only prognostication I’ll make is that Pennsylvania is going to make Donald Trump the next President of the United States,” Vance said. “I really do believe that.” “If you look at the early voting numbers, if you look at how much redder Pennsylvania has gotten in just the last couple of years, we are going to win this race so long as we work for it over the next 19 days,” Trump’s running mate added. “I really do believe that.” CARDINAL DOLAN ‘UPSET’ THAT HARRIS SKIPPING AL SMITH DINNERVance credited Pennsylvania’s tradition of world-renowned steel manufacturing and craftsmanship, saying the country has unfortunately “gotten way too far away from self-reliance.” The senator turned vice presidential pick said he believes Trump’s message is resonating in Pennsylvania more than Republicans from 20 years ago had because of the 45th president’s belief in “making things in America and stamping more products with the incredible label Made in the USA.” Citing a statistic he said “scares the hell out of me,” Vance said China has 32% of world manufacturing GDP, meaning 32% of the goods made worldwide are made in China, compared to just 18% made in the U.S.”That means China makes more stuff – I’m talking about the pharmaceuticals that we put into the bodies of our children, some of the important weapons systems of the future, the computer chips,” he said. “We’ve got to make more of our own stuff in the United States of America. And the way to do that is to lower regulations, lower energy costs for American businesses, and to rebuild the great American middle class.”
