Unified Sports Soccer Tournament brings together athletes of all abilities

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

FARMINGTON—It was a great day as students of all abilities paraded onto the field at the Legacy Events Center to play in a Unified Sports Soccer Tournament Sept. 22. The program brings together Special Olympics Utah athletes (individuals with intellectual disabilities) and partners (indi viduals without intellectual disabilities) on teams for training and competition.

The Davis School District and the Davis Education Foundation partnered with First Lady Abby Cox a year ago for her “Show Up” initiative that included expand ing the Unified Sports Program in schools around the state.

LAYTON—Rep. Steven Handy, R-Layton, already has an uphill battle to win back his seat in House District 16 as a write-in candidate, now he’s got another Steve to contend with. After losing the nomination at the Davis County Con vention to Trevor Lee, Handy launched a write-in campaign Aug. 30. A week later, Steve Fershtut filed as a write-in candidate on the last day right before the deadline. Handy believes Fershtut did it to

As we know we’re paying teachers to teach the standard curriculum but we know that extracurricular things like sports give critical life skills. You can’t teach that in the classroom. I thank the coaches, the athletes and the peer students.”

Smart Rain, a smart irrigation technol ogy company donated $20,000 through its Smart Rain for Smart Kids program to make the tournament possible. “We thank Smart Rain for their donation,” said Linford. “It helped pay for uniforms. We love you.”

Smart Rain is not only committed to an environmentally green school ground, she said, “but also to the integration and success of every student, regardless of their ability.”

Larsen said Smart Rain will provide smart controllers to any schools. “Smart Rain loves kids and schools. We want to help with the environment and schools as well. It takes a village.”

“This program has been extremely suc cessful in building friendships and fostering inclusion for all students involved,” said Executive Director of the Davis Education Foundation, Jodi Lunt. “Not only do they cheer each other on when competing, they also create bonds that extend beyond the field. The joy and excitement from the play ers, parents and everyone who watches at these tournaments is like nothing else I’ve seen – it’s truly amazing.” l

Biden signs bill to help with sex abuse victims

President Biden has signed into law a bill that will eliminate the stat ute of limitations for people who were sexually abused as minors to file civil claims. The Eliminating Limits to Jus tice for Child Sex Abuse Victims Act was passed by the House by voice vote last week after passing the Sen ate by unanimous consent in March. The bill eliminates time constraints for survivors to file civil claims related to sex abuse crimes against minors, including forced labor, sex trafficking, sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children. Previously, minors who survived such abuse were able to file federal claims until they reached the age of 28 or until a decade after the violation or injury was discovered.

FDA warns about cooking chicken with cold medicine

Cooking chicken in NyQuil cold medicine doesn't sound very appe tizing – and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration wants you to know that it’s definitely not safe, either. The agency has issued a warning about videos that have surfaced on TikTok challenging people to cook chicken in NyQuil, which contains acetamin ophen, dextromethorphan and dox ylamine, or similar over-the-counter cough and cold medications, according to the FDA. “Boiling a medication can make it much more concentrated and change its properties in other ways,” the warning said. “Even if you don’t eat the chicken, inhaling the medication’s vapors while cooking could cause high levels of the drugs to enter your body. It could also hurt your lungs.” TikTok has already slapped a warning on the the challenge, known as #sleepychick en. When searching for related videos on TikTok, users are greeted with a message: “Some online challenges can be dangerous, disturbing, or even fabricated. Learn how to recognize harmful challenges so you can protect your health and well-being.”

FBI investigating longtime Trump ally

BOUNTIFUL, FARMINGTON ON TOP

Crowd gathers at commission meeting to protest annexation

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

FARMINGTON—A vocal and some times unruly crowd filled the commission office and spilled into an overflow at Tues day’s meeting to speak against the proposed annexation of an unincorporated area of Val Verda into North Salt Lake City. The com missioners listened to comments during the public hearing before making a decision on whether to approve a resolution to annex the area between 3400 South and 4000 South and Orchard Drive and Hwy 89.

Prior to allowing the public to speak, Davis County Economic Development Plan ner Jeff Oyler presented to the commission the reasoning behind the proposal.

“The purpose is to provide upgraded improvements to urban services,” he said. “Development occurred in these boundaries in the 50s and 60s. Area B has been part of annexation plans since 2003.”

Oyler said they have received comments and emails from residents who don’t want to be annexed into North Salt Lake; they'd rather be in Bountiful. “Bountiful has not had an annex in 20 years. It’s not in their plans. They’re not interested in expanding their boundaries. They don’t want it. It is in North Salt Lake’s plan and has been for many years.”

A notice was mailed to all property own ers on Sept. 8 for the public hearing. “Under the law there are four formal things to consid er,” said Oyler. “First, this would create more efficiency for the city than the county can provide such as police response and street maintenance. This would all be better service in a closer proximity. In addition, trash pickup and high speed internet service are all things the county does not not provide.”

Second, the proposed area of annexation is all built out, Oyler said. “There is little de velopment left to annex. It (annex) will likely

never happen without the proposal.”

The third is the consideration of consoli dating service, he said. “Both North Salt Lake and the County law enforcement respond to the area so there’s an overlap in services. With this, North Salt Lake would become the police force and the county would be backup but not the primary responder.”

Fourth, city services are more effective at the city level than the county level, said Oyler. “Other unincorporated areas are most ly in the north not the south so it takes time to clear roads and provide community services. North Salt Lake can give improved services.”

North Salt Lake also allows animal keeping rights, the county does not, he said. “Garbage pickup is more uniform and more efficient so it’s significantly less expensive.”

Parks and recreation programs, fall and spring cleanups and youth programs are things the county does not provide either, Oyler said. “Being part of the city you have local representation so you can run for city council and take part in the planning.”

The con is there will likely be a change of address, he said. “North Salt Lake is on a grid system. It’s a hard pill to swallow and I know this will be a problem for some. I believe there will also be an increase in property tax. I don’t think we should side step that.”

After Oyler finished his presentation, a steady stream of residents came to the podium to give their reasons for opposing the annexation.

“I’m deeply concerned about the burden the change of address would have on families in the area,” said one woman. “They have not chosen to move but they have to change utilities, etc. and deal with lost mail and the negative impact of credit scores even though they didn’t physically move. It’s involun tary and our voices should count above all others.”

Frank Coon owns large businesses along

Hwy 89. “If you’ve been in business for yourself you know it’s a tough road,” he said. “If we move into NSL we’ll have to change all of our ads, logos and business cards. All of that will impede me from conducting busi ness in a fair way.”

John Marsh is in favor of the annexation.

“The Davis County Sheriff takes forever to respond,” he said. “North Salt Lake is closer. If there’s a problem I can go to North Salt Lake. I don’t have to drive to people in Farmington.”

“I don’t want it,” said one man pounding on the podium to make his point. “It’s all about development and nothing more.”

“We’ve been trying to get rid of all the

“We represent the people but we also represent the county,” said Commissioner Bob Stevenson. “What we look at is our general plan. Counties develop then develop into cities that incorporate all the land in their area. Cities run cities better than the county does.”

Commissioner Lorene Kamalu was ab sent but Elliott and Stevenson voted in favor of the resolution to annex the area into North Salt Lake. Now it goes to the city to move forward with the proposal.l

Centerville business receives a $250K sponsorship

By Peri Kinder peri.k@davisjournal.com

Shea Workman’s business, BrightBox, spreads smiles one small gift at a time. The Centerville-based company allows customers to curate the perfect package for a friend, family member or employee who could use some apprecia tion or recognition.

Workman received a gift herself when BrightBox was selected by America First Credit Union and its partner, the Utah Jazz, as the grand-prize winner of its inaugural Small-Business Spotlight Contest. BrightBox received a $250,000 single-season sponsorship to promote the compa ny’s mission of spreading happiness.

“I was so excited. We felt like this would be the next big step to really help us up-level our business,” Workman said. “They were looking for a company who really was committed to building the community. I think our product is really centered on trying to help build up the community and help people. They could see the potential we have in this business and how far we have yet to go.”

BrightBox beat out more than 150 other small business es vying for the prize that includes business and marketing strategy meetings with Utah Jazz and America First Credit Union executives.

“Small businesses are integral to the Utah community,” said Tammy Gallegos, EVP Chief Strategic Engagement Officer at AFCU. “America First is honored to provide the resources and tools to help small businesses succeed. Whatever their goals may be, we are proud to be part of their journey. Thank you to our partner, the Utah Jazz, for providing a platform for small businesses, and congratula tions to BrightBox and all the finalists.”

Workman started the business in 2017 when she couldn’t find an easy, inexpensive way to send a friend a thoughtful gift. She said looking in stores was time-consum ing, and shopping online for a gift box was too expensive.

She decided to do it herself and started creating gift boxes in her home garage. Workman then moved her com pany to North Salt Lake when business picked up and now BrightBox has relocated to Centerville and continues to grow.

“I grew up in Centerville so I’m coming back to my roots, I love it,” Workman said. “I love that there’s so much opportunity and things nearby, but also the community that’s here, and there are so many good people.”

BrightBox products include a confetti card, a curated and pre-selected mood box, or a build-your-own box for as little as $5. With more than 98,000 customers and 13 employees, Workman’s next concept is to create a business line of BrightBox gifts for employers to give to employees or clients.

“Having an easy, customizable and affordable way to show appreciation or recognition would be extremely

important and valued in the workplace,” Workman said. “We’re working to expand this business outreach and grow even more in that area.”

Finalists in the contest were evaluated on how well they represent Utah, how much they give back to the community, and how this opportunity will help them achieve their busi ness goals. The finalists were picked by a panel of judges composed of AFCU and Utah Jazz representatives, as well as community and business leaders.

“We are happy to partner with America First Credit Union that believes in small businesses,” said Utah Jazz CCO, Chris Barney. “The small business spotlight supports and emphasizes how essential small businesses are to our local community. Congratulations to the winner and all other finalists.”

Entrepreneurship runs in the family. Her husband, Kurt Workman, started the baby sleep monitoring tech company Owlet. They are raising three children in Farmington where Workman said she values the schools, beauty and mountains in the city. Visit BrightBoxes.com for more info. l

State flag designs narrowed down to 20

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

SALT LAKE CITY—It’s been a four year process but the move to change the Utah State flag is coming along. Last week, the 20 top designs were unveiled at the Capitol.

“It came about when some of my constituents came to me and said ‘Steve have you thought about changing the state flag? It’s just there,’” said Rep. Steve Handy who has been pushing in the legislature for the change. “They said we need a better flag. I compared it to other state flags and thought ‘wow maybe we can do better.’ The legislature formed a task force to study it.”

There is an interesting history about how the flag came about, he said. “There have been attempts to change it but it didn’t get there. Maybe now it will.”

The task force has been asking for the public’s input and 20 designs have been selected. “We’ve had 22,000 weigh in,” Handy said. “We’ve had a senior from Skyline and kids who have submitted designs. I think that’s cool that they’re involved.”

It’s pretty amazing, he said. “It’s incredibly gratifying. Human beings don’t like change. Some say you shouldn’t even dare to think or talk about this. I understand that.”

There’s no pride in the flag, said Handy. “It’s only used as a ceremonial flag.”

People are worried changing the flag will cost too much money, he said. “There’s no mandate to replace all the flags. It will just grow organically. That’s nonsense, we’re not going to replace all the flags.”

The public is invited to give input on the design by Oct. 5 at https://flag.utah.gov/final-flag-designs/.

“There’s a team of graphic designers who know good principles of flag design,” said Handy. “They’re all dis played in the Hall of Governors at the Capitol.”

It’s pretty neat, he said. “Eventually the selection will get down to three then down to one, then that will be pro posed to the legislature.” l

Homecoming week with the homies

By Kaiimilani Crockett Davis Journal intern

From Adam Sandler dress up days to football games and movie nights, Homecoming week was a success. Homecoming week is an opportunity to create unity in schools.

Bountiful, Farmington, Woods Cross, and Viewmont High School had Home coming this past week. Deanne Kapetanov, Principal at Woods Cross, said it best.

“During Homecoming week, students had many opportunities to connect with each other and become more integrated at Woods Cross High, where everybody is somebody.”

Students participate in fun dress up days throughout Homecoming week such as cowboy/cowgirl day, beach day, and even socks and sandals day. Libby Lake, a senior cheerleader at Woods Cross High, said that her favorite dress up day is Adam Sandler day.

Students also enjoyed the everyday activities held after school, such as chalk art, movie nights, and even a luau.

“I think Homecoming week creates unity in the student body by bringing them together to hang out a lot because there are so many activities everyone can be a part of,” said Isabelle Lowe, student body officer at Viewmont.

Football games are always an exciting event of Homecoming week. Students rally together to cheer their teams on to a win.

“I’m super excited for the football game,” said Sam Stevenson, receiver on the Bountiful High football team. “Box Elder is a good opponent and we’re excited to get to play against them.” Each team played on their home field and were cheered on by their peers win or lose.

Of course, the dance is the best part about Homecoming week. School dances are a way everyone lets loose and has fun. The awkward slow dance conversations, exhilarating dance circles, and sweaty mosh pits make for a perfect night to “Dance in the Moonlight,” Woods Cross High’s Homecoming theme this year. l

BLAST FROM THE PAST

1922

Two more fires within a week. Saturday evening Chief Trump and men were called down to the Gun Club to put out a fire. The boats caught on fire; how ever, all but one were saved. George Franklin’s stables and stacks were de stroyed at 2 o’clock Sunday morning. This is the old Jeddy M. Brown place in South Bountiful. The shed and about a ton of hay were burned. This is the second fire within the past two weeks that started at 2 o’clock. Incendiarism is suspected. Damage to the Franklin property is estimated at about $250.

1932

The Honor Roll Tablet for the Memorial Court House is in course of prepara tion. The law provides memorials to be erected to veterans of the several wars in which the United States of Ameri ca shall have been a belligerent. The names are the record available from all sources at the present time as serving in the World War from our county. The county commissioners are desirous that the lists be correct before the case is closed.

1942

The North Davis sewer system, to be constructed at a cost of more than $800,000, was started Tuesday at Syracuse, when Stroud-Seabrook utility contractors moved their equipment in for work. Rex L. Nicholson, regional director for the federal works agency, reported that work is to be complet ed in about 120 days. The project will serve the defense district in north Davis County and will be constructed in two units. The project calls for the laying of 128,000 linear feet of pipe, varying from 8 to 24 inches. This is a war project.

1952

Results of class elections for Davis High School’s 1,250 students were announced Tuesday by Dean Larson, student body president. President of the school’s senior class is J.R. Moss, with Gayle Olsen Vice President and Delbert Key secretary. Junior class officers include Dick Lemon, president; Gail Hartley, Vice President; and Kent Gerber, secretary. New class officers for the sophomores are Robert Rel lenbach, president; Karen Taylor, Vice President; and Diane Saxey, secretary. Assisting Larsen in directing student body activities are Lavina Argyle, Vice President; and Steve Campbell, secre tary.

1962

The great improvements made in the Bountiful water system, plus an imag inative display of work and publicity in the water department, brought a high honor to Bountiful this week. As a result, Bountiful received the Advance ment Award for 1962 by the American Waterworks Association for this region.

Winning over a host of others from 60 counties in Idaho, Nevada and Utah, Bountiful received a colorful trophy for its efforts. City manager Byron Oberg and city planner Grant Peterson prepared the display that is now on exhibition in the city hall.

1972

On the motion of councilman Don Cur tis, the request to open a mini bottle store was rejected unanimously by the West Bountiful City Council on Mon day night. At the same meeting, Mrs. Darling of D. & D. Waste appeared to explain some of her company’s feelings concerning garbage pickup. They are desirous of enlisting more clients. At present some 100 persons are sub scribing to the service. D. & D. would like to have every one of the city’s ap proximately 240 homes subscribe.

1982

After a five-year struggle against storm drain water flooding their basements and yards, residents of Centerville’s 400 West can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. Centerville City Council, in a special meeting last Tues day night, unanimously approved a low bid of $74,240 by Poulsen Construction Company of Ogden to install a 36-inch underground storm drain pipe along the east side of 400 West from Porter’s Lane to the south city limits. The bid was more than $10,000 below the en gineer’s estimate of $84,900, but about $10,000 above the amount actually budgeted for the project.

1993

For the first time in history one of the Davis County Commissioners will be wearing earrings. Carol R. Page of Kaysville will take her place Monday as the first woman to serve as a coun ty commissioner. She was appointed Wednesday as the successor to the seat left vacant by the death of Com missioner Gerald Purdy. In announc ing the choice, Commissioner Gayle Stevenson said he looks forward to working with Commissioner Page. “She will do a great job. I’m impressed with her capabilities,” he said.

‘Bright Star’ shines at CenterPoint

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

CENTERVILLE—It’s 1945 in the small town of Hayes Creek and Billy Cane is return ing from the war. Billy is happy to be reunited with his father, but when he looks for his mother, his father gives him the sad news that she passed away while he was gone.

That sets the stage for CenterPoint Lega cy Theatre’s production of the musical “Bright Star,” a touching story of love and loss where lives intersect, impacting the future.

Alice Murphy is a young woman grow ing up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, carefree and in love with local boy Jimmy Ray Dobbs. Jimmy Ray’s father, who is the mayor, doesn’t like the idea of Jimmy and Alice and wants him to marry a girl who can elevate his status. Alice’s strict father is also against the pair so they often sneak down by the river to meet.

When Alice finds that she is pregnant, it turns everyone’s world upside down except the lovers who just want to be a family. Deci sions out of their control change the course of their lives.

Fast forward 22 years and Alice is now a well-to-do magazine editor in Asheville and Billy comes to her with a manuscript he hopes to get published. She sees something in him and that leads them to Billy’s home where some of the mysteries of her life are unraveled.

Bright Star’s bluegrass score is written by actor Steve Martin and musician Edie Brickell and delivered with passion by a talented cast. Becca Burdick (TTHS) is beautiful as Alice Murphy and her strong voice carries an emotional undercurrent that touches the soul. Together Jimmy Ray Dobbs (Jordan Strong) and Alice share a heartbreaking bond as star crossed lovers.

Lucy (Kat Tietjen, TTHS) and Daryl (Jared Doley, TTHS) provide some comedic relief as Alice’s assistants at the magazine and there’s some great song and dance numbers to keep things light. Billy (Drew Dunshee, TTHS) is believable as the earnest young writer trying to get his break. While Margo (Olympia Pead) who works in the bookstore back home hopes something more will come of their friendship.

As the audience gets a glimpse of Alice’s life from a young girl to a woman she proves that the sun will shine again against all odds as she follows her bright star.

“Bright Star” runs now through Oct. 22, Monday – Saturday at 7:30 p.m. with Saturday matinees at 2:30 p.m. Ticket prices range from $18.75 – $34.50. CenterPoint is located at 525 N. 400 West, Centerville. For more information visit CPTUtah.org or call 801-298-1302.

OPINION

The

W hen we speak of a polarized country, we normally think of our politics.

But I think the same polarization can be seen on issues of gender, espe cially how men see women.

BY BRYAN GRAY

A colleague recently told me she felt uncomfortable con fronting males in the workplace. That could stem from a “give the benefit of the doubt” to the patriarchy, a common belief in Utah. It could also be that too many women view their role in society as being likable rather than assertive.

Most men, if asked, would say that women should be treated equally. But that doesn’t jive with reality. Not only do many females earn substantially less than their male counterparts, even when performing the same or similar tasks, but women are held to a different standard.

Look at the internet vitriol splashed at powerful women like Nancy Pelosi or Kamala Harris. Neither of them are my favorite elected officials, but their public image shouldn’t be more tainted than Sen. Mike Lee’s (comparing Donald Trump to Captain Moroni) or Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell (vowing that the most pressing issue for our country is making sure a Democrat president is “unsuccessful.”)

Or how about the reaction to female country music artists voicing political opinions? Star Maren Morris received death threats for her progressive views, resulting in a barricade and added se curity presence at her recent Salt Lake concert, The Dixie Chicks were removed from radio playlists and Roseanne Cash was told to “shut up and sing.” We didn’t see any of this reaction when testos terone-bulked country acts wrapped themselves in the flag and jumped on the Trump bandwagon.

National columnist Ruth Marcus put

gender

it best in a recent piece.

“When it comes to appearance, women can never catch a break. If a woman is too attractive, she risks not being taken seriously.

If a woman is not attractive enough – or has the nerve to get older and let it show – that works against her too.

“Men, by and large, don’t have to put up with this crap, and women are too often cowed into silence. If we’re quiet, then abuse continues; if we complain, we are strident harridans.”

If a woman dyes her hair, she’s not being authentic. If she lets it turn gray naturally, she might as well make a reservation at an assisted living center…

If a man has a paunch, it’s a sign of virility and the “good life.” If a woman puts on a few pounds, she’s a fatty…If a man drinks a beer or a whisky shot, he’s just being sociable. If a woman downs a glass of wine after work, it just shows that women don’t know how to deal with stress.

Muhammad Ali’s criticism of the Vietnam War was accepted more light ly by conservatives than Jane Fonda’s. When conservative author Michael Med ved wrote about actress Candace Bergen, he just had to mention critically that she had played a lesbian in a movie. Jackie Gleason’s obesity was “in character,” whereas actress Mae West’s waistline was compared by a male writer as an “overfed python.”

I’ll give columnist Marcus the last word: “Sometimes, it’s OK to be mad as hell.”

Grateful for those who speak the truth

This week in Italy, a new Prime Minister was elected. Already she is being labeled a Fascist and being compared to Mussolini. Why?

Her name is Giorgia Melo ni. She’s 45 years old. A wom an. A mother. A Christian. Her campaign platform was a simple one: “God, Family, Country.” She believes Christian values are under attack. She believes the traditional family is the bedrock of society, and is also under attack. She believes that words, and the meanings of words, are being twisted.

She reminds me of someone I know. She reminds me of me. She won because she received the largest number of votes.

Not long before his death, SCOTUS Justice Antonin Scalia said, “words have meaning. And their meaning doesn’t change.”

Today, many would have you believe that up is down, black is white, wrong is right, evil is good, man is a woman, etc. They would have you believe that those who hold and espouse Christian beliefs are hateful, prejudiced, and Fascists.

What is Fascism? The online definition is:

“A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.”

Sounds about right. A candidate who

espouses conservative fiscal policies, Christian beliefs and who supports traditional families must also believe in the “vi olent suppression of the opposition.”

It isn’t true. It makes no sense. Such absurd claims are meant to incite, inflame and cause conflict and contention. To what end?

People are fed up, and they’re fed up everywhere. This isn’t only hap pening in America, it’s happening through out the world.

The UK has also recently selected a conservative female Prime Minister. She, too, is under attack.

Across the globe, warriors are rising up and boldly declaring truth. As they do so they are lambasted, bullied, shamed, ridiculed, and maligned. Yet they stand anyway. They stand on the walls and speak truth. They are modern day watchmen. They deserve to be recognized and supported.

Staying silent is easy. Fence sitting is easy. They’re also dangerous. Taking a stand is hard, but necessary.

No, not all heroes wear capes, and not all heroes are men. I’m grateful for con servative women of faith who bravely and boldly speak truth.

“The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.” (G.K. Chester ton) What do you love? Are you fighting for it? Do you support those who are fighting for it? l

‘.…hold on thy way’

In the King James Version of the Bible, the message of “hold on thy way” is found frequently. But while those words sound pretty simple, from an Eternal per spective, they hold a significant meaning for each of us.

In essence, I would ask, “How are we doing in managing our lives?” Do we always do the right things? Do we hold perfectly to all the knowledge and covenants we have made throughout our lives? Well apparently, perfection is not our strongest characteristic! (That state ment will not surprise anyone.)

When it comes to our daily lives, it often seems that our mistakes are way too plentiful, and our imperfections are way too frequent. But they are central to this phase of mortality.

With this in mind, I’ve come to believe that our apparent imperfections and mis takes, including anxiety, anger, confusion, depression, etc., etc., are simply part of our development. Therefore, they are essential, and purposeful.

It has long been understood that our mistakes are only mistakes if we fail to learn from them. In reality, they are evi dence that we’re in motion, we’re growing, we’re learning. These mistakes are often painful, but we will eventually learn to manage, and rise above, the painful parts of life. We need to understand that mistakes are not indicators of failure, but rather, they

are some of the most essential teachers that we will ever encounter.

Heavenly Father doesn’t disown us when we make mistakes, and He doesn’t force us to do ev erything correctly. He teaches us and He loves us. In this manner, our mistakes will moti vate us to reach to higher levels of insight and maturity.

Our goal is not to think “big.” It is to think beyond where we are; beyond our present limitations; beyond our inabilities. Symptoms are messages that we may not completely understand, and mistakes are some of the necessary steps in our Eternal development. We are proven commodities. We’re not here to fail. This means that the distance from where we are, to where we want to be, is within our reach. May we catch our mistakes early. And may we learn to get back to our future.

Discovery Education offers teachers and students rich science resources

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

FARMINGTON—Students in the Davis School District will now have access to a suite of science content through the Discovery Education Science Techbook series that was selected by the district for classroom use in grades 7-12. The program provides rich science resources through the use of digital tools that offer teachers a new and exciting way to introduce students to science.

“Every 10 years we have to review our science mate rial,” said DSD Director of Teaching and Learning Belinda Kuck. “The license expired in 2022, so we started looking for new resources for teachers and students a year ago. We surveyed parents and teachers and had a focus group about what we needed in a new product.”

The district wrote an RFP and had several submissions, she said. “There were two rounds. We went through the first round and chose five vendors to take to round two. The committee wanted to see a demonstration and the Discovery product was the winner.”

It teaches core sciences integrated in seventh to eighth grade curriculum in earth science, biology, chemistry and physics, said Kuck. “We implemented it with teachers in August so that it would be ready to go for teachers and students on the first day of school.”

The core content of science, biology and earth science gives students a deep, robust resource of content knowledge, she said. “They can look at science and engineering practic es and apply it and learn what a scientist or engineer does.”

This tool supports teachers in learning the aspects of the three dimensions mission in STEM, said Kuck. “Those are to create wonder, implement a sense of the world around us and strengthen their problem solving muscle.”

It’s hard to always find material to use, she said. “This has lots of examples of scientific phenomena, labs, demon strations and models to help students make sense of the phenomena.”

It is task and demonstration based, said Kuck. “It’s not just rote memorization. Students gain the skills and knowl edge they need to get to the problem.”

The digital product is delivered through the Clever portal, she said. “It is authenticated by our online learning. Teachers and students are assigned a course number that shows this course product goes to this course. Students access it through Canvas.”

It’s been great, said Kuck. “We haven’t had any tech nical difficulties that weren’t human error. Learning how to use new teacher resources such as videos, models and demonstrations take some time. Every week it’s increasing. We’re going to get there.”

Implementing new resources takes a lot of work, she said. “But we have rock star teachers. We had a show and

tell at training and a teacher at a junior high blew everyone away with what she’d created. It got everyone excited about how they’re using it.”

The experts are the teachers, said Kuck. “We want to leverage their expertise and knowledge. The best is when they work together and they share.”

Discovery Education has been great to work with, she said. “They have a fantastic team. It’s truly a partnership. They make sure the needs of students and teachers are being met. That’s the best kind of partnership to have. We feel great about our choice.” l

Healing program allows vets to Continue Mission

By Peri Kinder peri.k@davisjournal.com

A fter Sgt. Josh Hansen (U.S. Army Retired) was injured by an improvised explosive device in Iraq in 2007, he was hospitalized for months with brain trauma, and back and neck injuries. Hansen often felt he was a burden on everyone around him and thought it would be better for everyone if he wasn’t around.

But after one of his soldiers died by suicide, Hansen realized he was traveling that same, dark road, and want ed a different ending.

“After going to his funeral and seeing how it devas tated the family and his kids, that was the turning point to say that’s not the answer,” he said. “We took care of each other during the war, we need to do that at home.”

Hansen and his wife, Melissa, founded Continue Mission in 2014, to provide a process to help veterans dealing with trauma. Based on his personal healing jour ney, the Continue Mission program, based in North Salt Lake, gets vets outside and interacting with each other.

Whether it’s hiking, paddle boarding, disc golf, pickleball or a ball game, the outdoor activities create bonds and friendships. Depression breeds in isolation, so physical interaction is a big part of Continue Mission.

“When you get this big network of individuals you can reach out to when you’re struggling, that can save a life,” Hansen said. “What worked for me might save others. Mother Nature is so healing.”

Many veteran programs are only available to military personnel who served after 9/11, but Continue Mission is open to vets of any era and service connection including National Guard, reserves and active duty personnel. The program also has numerous women participating, as well as LGBTQ or trans soldiers. Hansen wants the program to be all-encompassing and inclusive.

Continue Mission has grown with more than 3,500 vets participating this year, compared to 15 vets during the first year, and nearly 200 events. A recent river trip to Moab cost $10K but was offered at no cost to partici pants.

Continue Mission is funded through grants, website

cause a spoiled ballot.”

Fershtut supports Mr. Lee, he said. “You can’t make this up. They couldn’t win with their own name so they hijacked mine. We’ll take the high road.”

It will be fine, Handy said. “There’s a lot of things in life that I’d rather be doing. We’re having fun.”

However, that’s not the end of the story. Last week the Salt Lake Tribune re ported that Lee allegedly had a fake Twit ter account where he spouted derogatory comments about the LGBTQ community and women and made false statements about COVID.

“This is shocking,” said Handy. “In my 44 years of working and serving in District 16 I’ve just never seen anything like it. Voters in Davis County District 16 deserve better.”

Handy said it’s becoming clearer and clearer to voters that he has served

donations and a fundraising event organized by Blade HQ in Pleasant Grove.

“Running a nonprofit is not easy,” Hansen said. “We usually wing it and hope people find out about us and donate when we can. It’s stressful every year to know if we’re going to survive another year because of funding. But it’s been so rewarding.”

According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Af fairs, Utah is one of the worst states for veteran suicide. Part of Continue Mission’s goal is to get people in touch with the VA to get assistance, mental health counseling and other support.

“The majority of veterans dying by suicide aren’t registered with the VA at all. They’re not even getting the help,” Hansen said. “I don’t want to wait until someone is

them and done good things and built good relationships. “I’ve had their best interests at heart. I can’t even describe it, his views are so radical and extreme. Ninety-nine percent of people don’t accept or think that way that I know of.”

In the meantime, Handy’s campaign is gaining traction with several people throwing their support behind him. “Sen. Jerry Stevenson and a number of other legislators have sponsored me,” said Handy. “We’ve got widespread support and positive momentum. I’m just trying to get my story out there and remind voters who I am.”

Lee is just a turn off to people, he said. “He’s trying to deflect attention from me onto himself saying things like I’m not a Republican. That’s not what a campaign should be about. That’s just garbage. It should be about who is the most qualified and has more experience and what they’ll do.” l

in that dark place. I’d rather stop it beforehand. If we can get them out with our program and get their lives back again, and not let the tunnel get too dark, that will be the saving grace.”

As Hansen and his soldiers cleared bombs in Iraq, he’d say Charlie Mike, which meant they could continue mission.

“Here at home we need to continue mission in life and support one another,” he said. “It’s healing for me when I hear success stories. There are so many ways we can touch people's lives and not even know it.”

THE DAVIS SCHOOL DISTRICT has partnered with Discovery Education to provide teachers an exciting new set of tools with which to teach junior high and high school students about science.

SINCE 2014, CONTINUE MISSION in North Salt Lake has provided opportunities for veterans to come togeth er to heal, play and support each other.

WHAT TO WATCH

New movie options like ‘Hocus Pocus 2’ and ‘Blonde’ a mixed bag

By Jenniffer Wardell The Movie Guru

Hocus Pocus 2 (Disney+)

This straight-to-streaming sequel to the Disney cult classic isn’t a trick, but it’s also not as much of a treat as it could have been.

The movie, which features the return of about half of the original cast, respects key elements of the first film. Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy are all back as the Sanderson sisters, and there’s still plenty of room for both their goofy theatricality and a healthy dose of genuine menace. They get some character development here, but they’re still definitely bad guys. Doug Jones is also back as Billy Butch er, in an expanded role that’s welcome throughout.

The plot is fine, a solid adventure that doesn’t quite manage some of the pathos and depth of the original. (The

teen characters were perfectly decent, then and now, but the new movie doesn’t have anything that even half manages the depth of Thackery Banks trying to reunite with his murdered sister). Once you’re done, the strongest feeling you’ll be left with is the urge to immediately rewatch the original. And honestly, that’s not such a bad thing.

Grade: Two and a half stars

Blonde (Netflix)

How do you grade a movie that accomplishes what it’s trying to do, but still isn’t something most people will want to watch?

That’s the case with Andrew Dominik’s “Blonde,” which isn’t actu ally a biopic of Marilyn Monroe. It’s the movie version of a highly fictionalized novel written by Joyce Carol Oates, and as such it’s more a series of nightmarish vignettes starring Monroe than an actual story. They’re meant to be nightmarish, a story of exploitation, sex, and loss of

self, designed as more of an interesting ly rendered trauma experience than an actual movie.

The one bright light of the movie is Ana de Armas, who did such a fantastic job as Monroe I want to see her in an actual biopic. She does such a good job with the actresses’s fragility, but I want to see her portray her laughter and hope for more than just a few fleeting mo ments.

Grade: One and a half stars Don’t Worry Darling (in theaters)

Despite what other critics have said, it’s not that bad a movie.

A high-tech update of “The Stepford Wives,” “Don’t Worry Darling” offers plenty of distraction for people who like psychological thrillers. Florence Pugh is a fantastic lead, doing a killer job with everything the movie throws at her and making you root for her character the whole time. Chris Pine is a fantastically

OUT AND ABOUT

menacing antagonist, and the movie crackles every time they’re onscreen together.

Where the movie gets muddled is when it asks more questions than it answers, throwing the twists in too thick and fast to make sure they all make sense together. It’s not the kind of thing that will bother you when you’re watch ing the movie, but if you think about it for more than a few minutes a lot of the menace starts to fall apart. Harry Styles is also a weak link, a serviceable actor that’s simply not up to the dynamic emo tional complexity the script demands of him.

Grade: Two stars

‘Thriller’ returns for ODT shows in Salt Lake City

This is the final year that a longtime Odyssey Dance Theatre tradition will be offered to the community. Thriller performances started last week in Park City and Logan, and now move to Ogden, Salt Lake and St. George before the dance company shuts down after 26 years of these performances.

This show has it all – frights, amazement, scares and lots of laughs. The spooky spectacular combines technical aspects of dance while paying homage to the stars of All Hallows’ Eve. Thriller highlights all the horror characters of the season – such as Zombies, Frankenstein, Mummies, Chuckies and Jasons, just to name a few!

Odyssey has provided a space for talented dancers to stay in their home state of Utah and perform, as well as attracting talent from all over the world to Utah. Odyssey Founder and Artistic Director Derryl Yeager and his wife, Costume Designer/Costume Production Director Cheryl Yeager, will be retiring the company and moving onto the next “mission” in their lives, serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Upcoming dates are Oct. 3 and 4 at Peery’s Egyptian Theater in Ogden, Oct. 10-22 at Kingsbury Hall in Salt Lake City and Oct. 25-29 at Tuacahn in St. George. Visit www.odysseydance.com for more information.

Bountiful, Farmington continue unbeaten mark in region football

By Josh McFadden joshm@mycityjournals.com

October is just about here, which means the prep football season is winding down. Region races are heating up, but Bountiful and Farmington still haven’t tasted defeated in league play.

Bountiful

Last week, the Redhawks made it 3-0 in Region 5 and 5-2 overall with a narrow 14-13 victory over Box Elder. All three region games for Bountiful have been low scoring and decided by nine points or fewer.

In last week’s win, the Redhawks scored a touchdown in the first quarter and final quarter, holding Box Elder to a field goal in the second half in the process. Quarterback Owen Geilman opened the scoring with just under four min utes to play in the first quarter with a 32-yard run. After Box Elder scored 10 points in the second quarter to go up 10-7 at halftime, neither team scored in the third quarter. The Bees then extended their lead to 13-7 midway through the fourth quarter.

But the Redhawks had enough in the tank to take the lead for good and clinch the win.

Geilman hit Brigham Morrison 37 yards for a touch down with 2:28 to play in the game. A successful point after by Ben Smith sealed the win, as the Redhawks held off the Bees on their final drive. Corbin Cottle rushed 12 times for 91 yards, while Geilman added 70 yards on nine carries. Geilman also had 93 yards passing on seven completions. Two of these passes went to Faletau Satuala for 44 yards. Satuala also had 10 tackles on defense.

Bountiful plays at Viewmont this Friday.

Farmington

In Region 1, Farmington remains undefeated – in league play and overall. The Phoenix are the only undefeat ed team in Class 6A and are one of eight remaining unde feated teams in the state.

Farmington moved to 3-0 in region games last week with a convincing 45-15 triumph over Roy. Easton Wight hit Mitch Nielson for a 4-yard touchdown pass midway through the opening quarter. Roy answered to tie things up at 7-apiece.

But the floodgates opened in the second quarter with 28 Farmington points.

Wight tossed three more touchdowns in the second quarter alone – all to Ben Stucki – and Boston Reinhold had a 1-yard touchdown plunge across the goal line. Up 35-7 at the break, Farmington essentially clinched the win by that point. On Roy’s first drive of the second half, Farmington’s Dayton Runyan scored off a 25-yard interception return for a TD to further extend the lead to 42-7. Roy had a touch down and a two-point conversion late in the game, followed by a 25-yard field goal from Drew Romney for the Phoenix.

Wight was 12 of 19 passing for 201 yards and four touchdowns. Running back Travis Hoopes led the team with 61 yards on eight carries. Ben Stucki and Dante Coats each had four catches and accounted for 95 yard and 94 yards, re spectively. Parke Blaser was the team’s leading tackler with nine, while Jed Judkins and Luke Hansen each had sacks.

The 7-0 Phoenix take on Davis on the road this Friday.

Woods Cross

The Wildcats broke .500 in region play and overall with a 17-7 win over Bonneville last week. The 10-point victory moved Woods Cross to 2-1 in Region 5 and 4-3 in all games.

Playing at home, the Wildcats played strong defense, limiting the Lakers to a single touchdown, which came in the second quarter. The Wildcats’ Jacob Howes opened the scoring with a 12-yard run at the 1:21 mark of the first quarter. After Bonneville’s touchdown tied things up, Woods Cross regained the lead for good when Cash Henderson had a 3-yard TD run.

The second half featured just a Woods Cross field goal – a 35-yarder from Howes with under 11 to play in

the game. But the three points was enough to preserve the hard-fought win. Neither team put up a lot of yardage on the evening. Bradley Bailey paced the Wildcats with 46 yards on seven carries. Howes had 41 yards on seven attempts, while Bailey also had 47 yards passing. Henderson had six tackles and a sack. Teammates Carter Freestone, Parker Bur den and Jonah Suliafu each had interceptions.

The Wildcats can stay within striking distance of first place in Region 5 when they travel to Box Elder this Friday.

Viewmont

The Vikings won their first region game of the season last week over Northridge in a thriller. Now at 1-2 in Region 5 and 4-3 overall, Viewmont outlasted Northridge at home

Hope also noted the “impressive game” Julia Baird played for the Vikings. “Julia is usually front row only, but due to an illness played back row defense and just played super smart defen sively, recording two blocks to go with eight kills.”

Against Box Elder Sept. 22, Viewmont won 25-20, 25-11, 25-27, 25-13.

Montalbo’s 14 kills led the way with Had dock and Maddie Lege adding 10 and eight kills, respectively.

“Our setter Macey Christian continues to run the ball so well with the team,” Hope said. “Her court smarts are impressive. She just knows how to get things done and plays out of her head. She is fun to watch.”

The Vikings have a 6-9 record this season. Farmington Farmington lost to Fremont 27-25, 17-25, 2522, 25-27, 15-13 Sept. 22.

Sophie Wendt and Kaylee Monroe combined for 26 kills in the loss.

Defensively, Wendt led with 27 digs while Mele Fiefia added 24 digs to go with Laina Whit

Davis, Farmington girls soccer hanging close to region leaders

By Josh McFadden joshm@mycityjournals.com

I

t’s the final week of September and the final week of the girls high school regular season. Both Farmington and Davis have a chance to capture the Region 1 crown. But they’ll need some help.

At press time, both teams were 7-3 in league play, a game behind 8-2 Syracuse. Farmington and Davis played one another on Tuesday (after our press deadline) in a game that could influence who wins Region 1. The matchup will also help determine which play off seedings the teams will occupy when the Class 6A state tournament begins next week.

Farmington

Farmington’s lone game last week was one of its most disappointing performances of the year. The Phoenix fell to Layton 4-0 on the road, allowing two goals in each half. It was the first time all year Farmington has allowed four goals in a game.

After facing Davis, the 9-5 Phoenix finish the regular season with a game at first-place Syracuse. The first time these two squads got together, Farmington handed the Titans one of their two league losses on the season with a 2-0 victory.

Davis

The Darts blanked Clearfield 2-0 on Sept. 20, as Elepha Magley got shutout No. 5.5 on the season. Davis scored a goal in each half, as Emery Jacobs and Olivia Flint found the back of the net. Emerson Taylor and Brooklyn Phongsavath had assists.

Two days later, however, Davis fell to 9-4 overall and 7-3 in Region 1 with a 3-2 loss at home to Syracuse. The Darts were up 2-1 at halftime but were outscored 2-0 in the second half. In defeat, Phongsavath had two goals.

After the game with Farmington, Davis finishes up the regular season at Layton.

Viewmont

The Vikings can’t capture the Region 5 crown, as they are 3 ½ games behind unde feated Bonneville at our press time. At 5-3 in league action, the Vikings sit in second place as the week began.

Viewmont was 1-1 last week, with both games being decided by one goal. The

Vikings beat Woods Cross 2-1 on Sept. 20 and fell in overtime to Northridge Sept. 23 by the count of 2-1. In the victory, Katie Wersland and Kaylee Garlick scored, with Brynn Rees recording an assist.

Viewmont hosted Bonneville on Tues day before wrapping up the regular season at Bountiful on Friday.

Woods Cross

The 8-7 Wildcats are 4-5 in Region 5 but have two more games to improve their playoff positioning.

Last week, Woods Cross suffered a pair of tough, close losses. First, the Wildcats lost to Viewmont at home on Sept. 20 by the count of 2-1. Bailey Brown scored the team’s lone goal. On Sept. 23, Woods Cross lost a heart breaker to Bonneville in a shootout. Bonne ville prevailed by making five penalty kicks to Woods Cross’ four. The Lakers were up 1-0 at halftime before Woods Cross scored a pair of second-half goals. Bonneville evened things up to send the game into overtime, where neither team scored in two sessions.

The Wildcats faced Box Elder at home on Tuesday and next play at Bountiful.

Bountiful

Speaking of the Redhawks, they started the week with a region mark of 3-5 and an overall record of 8-6. Bountiful stopped a twogame skid with two big victories last week.

On Sept. 20, Bountiful came out on top in a high-scoring 4-3 affair over Northridge. Three of the Redhawks’ goals came in the second half. Belle Sorensen had two goals, and Ellyse Kessler and Caroline Hellewell each had one. Abbey Pham, Oakley Jensen and Hellewell had assists.

Three days later, Bountiful had a sea son-high six goals in a 6-0 shutout of Box Elder. The Redhawks had three goals in each half. Daisy Williams got credit for the shutout, and six players scored. Sorensen, Hellewell, Kessler, Chloe Pickett, Jensen and Kate Holbrook each found the back of the net. Sorensen had two assists, while Hellewell, Hayley Smith and Olivia Johnson each added one.

The Redhawks face Woods Cross and Viewmont this week. l

Farmington boys win Region 1 golf; Summerhays wins medalist honors

By Catherine Garrett c.garrett@mycityjournals.com

F reshman Jack Summerhays shot a five-under par 67 at Glen Eagle Sept. 20 on the second day of the Region 1 championship and won medalist honors. His finish helped the Phoenix squad battle back from seven shots down after Day One at Eagle Mountain Sept. 19 to win by seven strokes. Ben Ackley had rounds of 73 and 71 to take third, while Brigham Goldsberry had a 73 and 75 to tie for eighth and Cole Taylor had an 81 and 70 to round out the 10th spot.

Joining Summerhays on the All-Re gion team from the Phoenix were Cole Taylor, Luke Kelley and Ben Ackley on the First Team, and Dax Anderson, Emer son Cahoon and Brigham Goldsberry on the Second Team.

Davis’ Max Landon had a 73 to lead the Darts into fifth place on the first day. “Day One was rough,” said Davis head coach Josh Roberts. Luke Simmons scored a 78, Jack Christiansen an 80 and Peyton Love a 79.

On Day 2 at Glen Eagle, Landon shot a 72 to lead the team along with Alex Fisher, who scored a personal best 72. Logan Dent’s round of 18 resulted in a career-best 74 with Simmons also in the 70s with a 79. Davis placed third in the region, the best finish of the year for the Darts squad.

“It was fun to watch our fifth and sixth golfers play career rounds,” Roberts said. “I’m so proud of these kids and all their hard work and dedication to im prove.”

Landon earned First Team All-Region honors while Christiansen was honored on the Second Team.

In the final Region 5 tournament of the season at Oquirrh Hills before the Region 5 championship Sept. 29, Woods Cross finished in second place with a team score of 300, just two shots back of Box Elder. Jon Howe’s 69 put him in third place while Rex Poulsen and Christian Bates were also top 10, tying for ninth with rounds of 76. Other scores for the Wildcats were Clayton Schmitt 79, Jacob Connors 80, Dylan Markisich 82, Jaxon Smith 85 and Jackson Bodily 90.

Bountiful’s Stockton Penman tied for fifth place individually, shooting a 73, in leading the Redhawks to a fifth-place finish. Other scores for Bountiful were Michael Campos 78, James Springer 81, Luke Smith 82, Ty Cottle 85, Jack Jordan 87, Isaac Stout 89 and Cole Nadauld.

“It wasn’t our best day,” said head coach Mike Maxwell.

Viewmont’s Luke Gardner’s 73 tied him for fifth while the Vikings were sixth as a team. Other scores for Viewmont were Zach Robison 80, James Gardner 81, Kade Cannon 83, Zac Anderson 88, Easton Fox 89 and Brigham Shupe and Nathan Low 92. l

39-36.

The second half was particularly wild.

Viewmont was up 17-7 at the break. Then the two teams combined for 51 points over the final 12 minutes. Viewmont jumped out to a 14-0 lead in the second quarter after Luke Jacobs scored on a 7-yard run in the first quarter. He then connected with Scott Noel on a 37-yard touchdown pass early in the second quarter. Northridge responded with its first touchdown, but Britton Christensen hit a 26-yard field goal as time expired in the first half. This gave Viewmont a 17-7 lead. But it didn’t last long.

Northridge came out on fire in the third quarter, scoring three touchdowns in a four-minute span. In the fourth quarter, now down 28-17, Viewmont had its own offen sive spurt. The Vikings ran off three straight touchdowns (including a two-point conver sion after the first one) to go ahead 39-28.

All three touchdowns came from Jacobs’ arm. The quarterback hit Mitch Jeppesen from 5 yards out and then connected with Kingston Mickens on TD passes of 25 and 15 yards. The final touchdown came with 5:15 left to play. Northridge did manage another touchdown and a two-point conver sion, but Viewmont held on for the victory.

Miles McGrath rushed 26 times for 161 yards, and Jacobs added 85 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries. Jacobs also had 298 yards passing and four touchdowns. Two Vikings had over 100 yards receiving.

Mickens had five grabs for 133 yards, and Noel caught four passes for 102 yards. Ryan Lockhart had 10 tackles.

Viewmont hosts Bountiful on Friday.

Davis

In an up-and-down season, the Davis Darts are still in the thick of the Region 1 race.

Davis was 2-1 in region play and 4-3 overall as this week began. The Darts took care of Fremont 30-17 last week at home, with the fourth quarter being the key differ ence. Davis outscored Fremont 13-0 in the final period.

Kicker Gage Butler hit field goals of 29, 46 and 39 yards, with the last one com ing at the 2:23 mark of the fourth quarter.

Carter Knight’s 49-yard fumble return with 38 seconds to play, however, was the game-clincher. At that point, Fremont was down 23-17 and driving for the tying touchdown. Quarterback Jackson Stevens also threw two touchdown passes on the evening. He threw a 13-yarder to Tyson Elkins in the second quarter and a 12-yarder to Kaden Eggett in the third.

Davis had just 40 yards rushing, but Stevens lit up the stat sheet with 337 yards passing on 30 completions. Eight Darts caught passes, with Elkins grabbing nine balls for 95 yards. Hunter Anderson had six catches for 93 yards, and Easton Baggett had seven catches for 69 yards. Cam Wilson had two sacks, while Nick Johnson had two interceptions on the night.

Davis hosts first-place Farmington this week. l

Don’t ditch fish in different waterways

By Tom Haraldsen tom.h@davisjournal.com

This probably goes without saying, but those who fish in Utah are being re minded that it’s illegal to move fish you’ve caught from one waterway to another. This has become an increasingly large problem in recent years.

Twice a year, biologists working with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources do surveys at various lakes and streams to get

In an effort to expand its law enforcement investigative methods, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources recently launched its first conservation officer drone team.

data about the fish in those waterbodies, including weight, condition and population numbers. However, during their annual sur veys this year, they discovered an oscar fish (native to South America) in Millrace Park Pond – a community fishery in Taylors ville – and a variety of other exotic fish in several other community ponds in the Salt Lake Valley. They also discovered hundreds of goldfish in a pond on the Mail Draw Wildlife Management Area on Aug. 29. The pond is used to provide water for wildlife in the area and is not a fishing pond.

So far, no problems like this have been

found in Davis County.

“Illegal fish introductions seldom improve fisheries – instead, illegal introduc tions typically ruin fisheries and threaten the species that live there,” said DWR Sportfish Coordinator Randy Oplinger. “It is also illegal in Utah and can result in a class A misdemeanor.”

The reasons for making this illegal are obvious. One fish species can prey on or outcompete others for food in their unnat ural habitat. The new fish can introduce disease and negatively impact water quality. Since 2005, DWR biologists have found

myriad fish that have been relocated after capture from one lake or pond to another.

“It is very expensive and takes a long time – often requiring rotenone treatments that kill all the fish – to restore these waterbodies after fish have been illegally introduced,” Oplinger said. “Please help our native fish species and maintain quality fish ing in Utah by never dumping a fish.”

Utahns are encouraged to call 1-800662-3337 to report any invasive fish they find, or if they see anyone illegally intro ducing fish into a waterbody or trying to relocate live fish. l

• Investigating hunting-related shooting incidents.

• Investigating wildlife/human encounters.

The new Unmanned Aerial Systems team had to complete various licensing and training requirements with the Federal Aviation Admin istration in order to become certified to operate drones for law enforcement work. There are currently five investigators assigned to the drone team, and they are located throughout the state.

“Using drones will help us more effective ly solve wildlife crimes, and having trained law enforcement drone pilots will also allow us to assist other law enforcement agencies with search-and-rescue efforts or any other inves tigations,” DWR Captain Wade Hovinga said. “Utah conservation officers are public servants, and these new tools will help us better serve the public, whether we’re solving poaching crimes or locating lost hunters.”

Similar to the K-9 conservation officer team, these specialized drone officers will be called to assist with a variety of things, includ ing: Documenting crime scenes.

• Searching for evidence and locating ille gally taken wildlife.

• Assisting landowners by investigating illegal trespassing on private property.

• Helping other law enforcement agencies with search-and-rescue efforts.

• Assisting biologists with wildlife surveys.

• Documenting boating accidents (avail

Conservation officers concentrate their efforts on enforcing wildlife laws and ensuring compliance with those regulations. They also educate and protect the recreating public, and work to promote the value of wildlife for every one in Utah. DWR conservation officers also increasingly respond to non-wildlife-related criminal code violations and are often requested to assist local law enforcement agencies. Some of their job duties include:

• Patrolling Utah’s mountains and lakes, investigating wildlife-related violations. (Con servation officers patrol on foot, horseback, motorcycles, ATVs, boats and in trucks.)

• Assisting biologists with studies and sur veys to help inform management decisions.

• Removing nuisance wildlife from urban areas.

• Helping other agencies with various investigations and enforcement.

• Assisting in search-and-rescue missions, wildfire evacuations and other emergency response efforts.

• Helping with Hunter Education, teaching new hunters about how to be responsible and ethical.

• Enforcing all of Utah’s laws.

Q: I was watching “Octopussy” and it sounds as if some of Magda’s lines have been dubbed over. What is heard is clearer than other dialogue and it doesn’t match with the shapes her mouth is making. Why would they do that?

A: Rerecording lines was actually a pret ty common practice in films at the time (and is still in use), but you’re right that it

TELEVISION GUIDE

was particularly noticeable in the Bond films, especially with a few of Kristina Wayborn’s (“The Silent Lovers,” 1980) lines in 1983’s “Octopussy.”

Essentially, lines are rerecorded when the mics pick up other noise, if the actor has a heavy accent that the producers think would be distracting or hard to under stand, or when the line is changed after filming.

The thing is, directors and actors get pretty good at doing it, so it’s not often noticeable. But when it’s the latter case — when a line is changed to something other than what the actor said on film — it’s pretty hard to hide. That seems to have been the case with the Magda character in “Octopussy.” In fact, there is a lot of discus sion in the James Bond fan community about one particular line and what she said originally.

In the final cut, when Octopussy (for the non-Bond fans reading this, yes, that’s an actual character’s name), played by Maud Adams (“Rollerball,” 1975), asks Magda where another character was going, Magda says, “Back to India.” At least, that’s what her voice says. But as you point out, her lips clearly say something else.

Q: What is Cary Elwes doing these days? He was poised to be a leading man, but that seems to have fizzled.

A: On the contrary, Cary Elwes is in the midst of a full-on career renaissance.

You’re absolutely right that his leadingman momentum seemed to run out of steam in the ‘90s. It started with 1987’s “The Princess Bride” and maybe peaked with 1993’s “Robin Hood: Men in Tights,” but it slowed pretty rapidly so that by the

‘00s he was doing supporting roles in rela tively low-profile films. His biggest role at the time was a recurring support in the gruesome, schlocky Saw horror franchise.

That said, he never went away. Elwes kept up an incredible work rate that, viewed in hindsight, looks more like a slow transition from handsome young heart throb to mature silver fox.

He’s back to top-lining films, such as last year’s Netflix holiday romance “A Castle for Christmas,” and he has eight high-profile roles in development — most notably the next Mission: Impossible franchise movie, “Mission: Impossible - Dead ReckoningPart One,” which will be raking in cash next year.

Celebrity Profile

By Joshua Amy TV Media

Series that amass huge fan engage ment have the poten tial to launch their stars to new heights. That is exactly what happened to “Supernatural” co-lead Jensen Ackles. Following his role as Dean Winchester, one half of the series’ monster-hunting duo, the actor has an even brighter future ahead.

Fans of the Winchester brothers haven’t heard the last of Dean: Ackles returns to narrate “The Winchesters,” “Supernatural’s” pre quel series, premiering Tuesday, Oct. 11, on CW.

Ackles’ acting career began in ear nest after he graduated high school and moved from Dallas to Los Angeles in 1996. A year later, he had his first big break, landing the role of Eric Brady on NBC’s iconic soap opera “Days of Our Lives.” The young actor made quite the impression at the time, winning the Soap Opera Digest Award for Best Male Newcomer and going on to be nomi nated for a Daytime Emmy three years running.

Following his departure from the soap, Ackles set his sights on prime time, first landing a small role in the Marilyn Monroe biographical minise ries “Blonde” before joining the cast of the second (and final) season of James Cameron’s sci-fi series “Dark Angel.” From there, Ackles would go on to play the recurring role of C.J. on “Dawson’s Creek,” thus kicking off a prolific career with the CW (still operating as The WB at the time).

Ackles moved from “Dawson’s Creek” to “Smallville,” appearing for one season as love interest/sur prise twist antagonist Jason Teague and showcasing the breadth of his talent ahead of his most famous project.

Utah receives federal aid for COVID funeral relief

The state of Utah has received almost $13.4 million in federal money for assisting families with costs of people who died from COVID-19. The Federal Emergency Management Agency launched the COVID-19 Funeral Assistance Program in April 2021 to help families with the financial burden of final expenses for loved ones who died due to coronavirus.

The assistance covers funeral services such as cremation, caskets or urns, burial plots; transfer of remains, markers or head stones; costs for producing death certifi cates, costs due to local and state govern ment laws or ordinances, and transportation for up to two people to identify the person who died.

According to the National Funeral Di rectors Association, a funeral in Utah cost an average of $7,000 in 2021. Under this

program, eligible applicants can receive up to $9,000 from FEMA.

To date, 2,448 applications have been started or received in Utah, with 1,978 approved. Almost 5,000 Utah residents have died from COVID-19, according to the Utah Department of Health and Human Services. The virus was the fourth-leading cause of death in Utah in 2020, trailing only heart disease, cancer and accidents. Nation ally, as of Aug. 1, FEMA has issued $2.7 billion in COVID-19 funeral assistance to more than 420,000 individuals and families.

There is a list of qualifications, which are fairly easy to meet, which can be found at https://www.fema.gov/disaster/corona virus/economic/funeral-assistance. Those who paid for a funeral of a person “whose death was attributed to COVID-19” on or after Jan. 20, 2020, are eligible for the assistance. The death must have occurred in the United States.

To apply, call 844-684-6333. l
