2023 LEGISLATIVE SESSION BEGINS

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

SALT LAKE CITY—There was an energy at the Capitol on Tuesday as lawmakers took their seats in the House and Senate to start the 2023 legislative session. In the next 45 days, bills will be considered and passed and decisions will be made that impact Utahns throughout the state.

“It’s a little like the first day of school,” said Rep. Karen Peterson, R-Clinton. “You’re excited but also nervous.”

Peterson plans to run a bill dealing with school safety. “People have contacted us with concerns,” she said. “We’re not just thinking about the physical building, Davis School District has done a good job with that, but a specific pipeline to school counselors to learn how to get ahead of the incident and make sure kids are in a good place.”

The bill would provide funding to pay those who are already working as paraprofessionals, teachers or others and give them the opportunity to go to school and become a counselor, said Peterson. “I also want to get a parent portal so they can ask questions about how to handle a situation with their child at school.”

Maybe they’re the subject of bullying, she said. “What are the parent’s rights? They might not know they have the opportunity to change their child’s schedule to come later or leave earlier or move online if the kid is having a hard time. I want to make that easier to navigate. We all know that students have the most success when the parents and the school work together.”

To kick off the session both House and Senate leadership welcomed new members and talked about the responsibilities facing legislators.

“What we do in this session will not only impact us today but will impact all of our tomorrows,” said Senate President J. Stuart Adams. “More importantly, it will impact the tomorrows of our children, our grandchildren and even our great-grandchildren. Let us commit now to be a body of foresight.”

“Coming into this session, it has become crystal clear to me that as a state, and by extension, as elected representatives, we stand at one of those rare moments where our choices will ripple for generations,” said Speaker Brad Wilson. “I cannot say it more clearly

Intermountain Layton breaks ground on new Ambulatory Surgery Center

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

LAYTON—The Intermountain Layton Hospital campus is growing and the newest addition is an Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) that will enhance efficient and affordable outpatient surgical care in the county. Hospital administration, physicians and other dignitaries participated in a ceremonial groundbreaking for the new facility last week.

“Continual growth and success is key to what we do,” said Administrator/CEO Scott Mortensen. “The ASC is part of the growth in the community and will provide services close to home at a lower cost. From the hospital’s perspective it just makes sense.”

“We’re excited,” said Layton Mayor Joy Petro. “Before this whole development there

State’s tax surplus, flag, topics at town hall

By Becky Ginos

WEST BOUNTIFUL—A large crowd gathered at the West Bountiful City Hall last week for a legislative town hall hosted by local lawmakers Reps. Ray Ward, Melissa Ballard, Paul Cutler and Sen. Todd Weiler. Each legislator took a few minutes to explain bills they are running and then opened it up to questions from the audience.

“I have a couple of things,” said Weiler. “First is when police respond to a domestic violence situation they will be required to perform a lethality assessment protocol where they find out if they’ve (offender) threatened to kill them before, if there are weapons in the house, etc. Then the police can connect them with social services or whatever they need.”

Lt. Gov. Deidre Henderson’s niece was killed in a domestic violence situation, he said. “If this had happened she believes it could have saved her life.”

Weiler is also running a bill to create a database that the police can use to see the history of the offender in a domestic violence situation. “Pharmacists have a database that if there is something that is suspicious they can run through the prescription,” he said. “When the police respond they have no idea if the offender has been involved before. With this they can pull up the last 10 days and see if there has been a problem. It’s crucial for our officers to know.”

With Deidre’s niece the police had been called several times before when he killed her, said Weiler. “Gaby Petito’s parents support the bill and will testify when it goes before the legislature. They think it could have saved their daughter.”

Cutler is new to the legislature so this will be his first session. He is also running a bill dealing with domestic violence issues.

“It’s firearms safety,” he said. “If there is an incident with an owner of a gun a cohabitant can turn over the gun to the officer for safe keeping. They keep it for a while until things cool down. If someone is arrested for domestic violence they can’t get the gun back until they’ve satisfied their sentence or a jail agreement.”

Ward is a physician and has several bills dealing with health care. “When patients get labs or other tests then go to a different doctor those records are not available to them at a different location,” he said. “They’re their own personal medical records. This bill would make it possible to share the information so for example in Davis County any of the four hospitals could get it.”

Ballard is passionate about education and is running several bills involving that. She’s also working to get education into the correctional system. “I want inmates to get the opportunity for education as soon as possible,” she said. “It can provide hope and make a change in their lives so that they don’t return to the streets.”

An audience member asked what they thought about changing the state flag. “I’m proud of the state flag,” said Weiler. “But when it’s backwards it shouldn’t say hatu. That’s Utah backwards. An updated, energized flag is not a bad idea.”

“Most of my constituents don’t want it to change,” said Ward. “Messaging (on T-shirts, etc.) was not what was important to them.”

A resident asked them to poll the audience by standing up for or against the change and those against won out. “Personally I

like the new flag,” said Ballard. “It’s more modern. People are very opinionated about it. Utahns love Utah and they’ll be behind it whatever they get.”

Another audience member asked what their plan was for spending the state’s tax surplus. “The plan is to address the budget as a whole,” said Ward. “In the end we have to balance the budget no matter what.”

Some will go to water conservation and the Great Salt Lake, he said. “It will go to pay teachers, police workforce and other services and there will be a tax cut in the mix as well.”

“We didn’t use the money last year or the year before that,” Weiler said. “We have

a rainy day fund whether there is a recession or not this year – 2008 was devastating to the state.”

“During COVID New York went $62 billion in the hole,” said Ballard. “Utah was in surplus. There’s never enough money to fund every ask.”

Cutler said he’s been impressed with the welcoming attitude he’s received from the other legislators. “We might disagree but you have to separate the people from the problem and come together. Let’s focus on the future rather than the sins of the past.”l

– and I don’t think it is hyperbole…The decisions we will make this session will define Utah’s next decade and beyond.”

Utah has the distinction of being both one of the fastest-growing and driest states in the country, he said. “That leaves little room for error in how we manage our growth and our water.”

This has been a wet winter so far – and that is great, said Wilson. “But one winter alone won’t wash away two dry decades. The ongoing drought, our management of state water, increased resources for Southern Utah and preservation of the Great Lake Lake are top priorities for this House. Let’s build upon last year’s considerable policy success to encourage conservation and provide resources to help Utahns do their part to safeguard Utah’s water.”

Wilson also addressed housing affordability. “By any measure, Utah’s economy is strong – among the best in the nation,” he said. “But living here is becoming too expensive for far too many, thanks in part to federal money printing policies that are driving record inflation.”

It is impossible to ignore the sharp increase in Utah housing prices the past several years, said Wilson. “For many young adults

were hayfields here. We’re fortunate that the hospital decided to come here and purchase the property. At first they said it would be a full service hospital but then they decided to take a step back and see what the community needed. We were devastated because we thought there would be no hospital but they reevaluated and decided it would go here.

The project started in 2015.”

Petro said the city let the neighbors know what was going on. “They love the hospital and what they’ve done here. Intermountain has done an excellent job analyzing what is best for the client and not necessarily the bottom line – that speaks volumes.”

The new center will be nearly 18,000

and those starting families, the idea of a starter home has become something they’ve heard about but have never really seen – a lot like a fax machine or a landline.”

At the northern end of Davis County, Clearfield sits along the southwest side of Hill Air Force Base, he said. “Utah’s robust aerospace and defense industry makes up 12 percent of our economy and Clearfield faces all the housing challenges that come with it.”

Over the last three years, Clearfield has built over 1,700 attainably priced homes, the most in Davis County, said Wilson. “Clearfield Mayor Mark Shepherd is with us today. Mayor Shepherd, we applaud the work you have done and we thank you for serving as a strong example and an effective case study as we address this issue.”

Throughout the state’s history Utahns have embraced the spirit of taking the long view, he said. “Hard work is our hallmark and we’re not afraid of doing the hard thing today to make tomorrow a little better. It’s something I know we all take great pride in – and we should. The decisions we make this session will define our next decade and beyond…It will impact the lives of every Utahn. Let’s get to work.”

square feet with four operating rooms and is projected to be completed by 2024.

Chief Medical Officer Glen Morrell, M.D. remembers visiting his grandma where his aunt was convalescing after having cataracts removed. “She had sandbags on each side of her head so she couldn’t move,” he said. “Today that can be done in a same day surgery. What a difference. If you had to have your appendix out it took three days before you could go home. If you came in now in a few hours you’d be home in your own bed.”

The ASC will maximize the recovery of patients, he said. “It also increases the value of care for patients. Healthcare is expensive especially for the middle class. This will decrease cost. It will be a wonderful thing for patients.”

“Without the overhead of a hospital, we

can provide the same great care and charge about half as much,” said Mortensen. “We’ll have 23 hour stays where patients are not admitted to the hospital. We can do total joints and other surgeries because of that.”

Sixty to 70 percent of the operating volume will be done in the surgical center, he said. “That opens up more capacity for surgeries that do need to be done in the hospital.”

“Top of mind for doctors and surgeons is where patients can get the very best care possible,” said Morrell. “The number of hospital cases keeps going up. Joints, hips, knees had to be done in the hospital now that can be done as an outpatient. Infection rates are lower because you don’t have to be with sick patients like in a hospital. It’s so much easier to recover in your own bed.” l

The real reason behind blinding headlights

C omplaints keep circulating about the lights coming on at night. No, it isn’t about just any lights; it’s about headlights. It seems that vehicle headlights, year after year, get brighter and brighter. And many people are asking what can be done to dim these lights.

There are three types of headlights: standard halogen (which are most common), high-intensity discharge or HID (which came in around the 90s) and LED (light emitting diode) highlights (which are found in a lot of newer vehicles). Each lighting type is measured by candlepower and lumens. They each measure different light qualities, and one candlepower equals 12.57 lumens. When measuring lumens, it refers to the light illuminated in a one-square-foot area one foot away from a single candle.

Utah Code states, “A lighted lamp or illuminating device on a vehicle, which projects a beam of light of an intensity greater than 300 candlepower, shall be directed so that no part of the high intensity portion of the beam will strike the level of the roadway on which the vehicle stands at a distance of more than 75 feet from the vehicle.”

A technical report from 2004 titled “Drivers’ Perceptions of Headlight Glare from Oncoming and Following Vehicles” gives some perspective. The report reads as follows:

“Recently, U.S. drivers have been expressing concern over the discomfort and reduced visibility that they experience from headlight glare from other vehicles. Drivers have focused their concern on the relatively new high intensity discharge lights, high mounted lights and various

auxiliary lights. In order to better understand this glare problem, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration collected data on drivers’ perception of glare from a representative sample of U.S. drivers. The survey was conducted through Omnibus Survey of the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. The present study is based on the information (data) collected on two types of glare: glare from oncoming and following vehicles.

“The survey data were analyzed to find out how U.S. drivers perceive the two types of glare and if glare perception is associated with respondents’ age and gender. Contingency analysis was conducted to establish these associations. The statistics showed that a sizable number of respondents feel that glare was ‘disturbing.’ It was found that the age group 35 to 44 had the highest percentage of night drivers as well as among those who felt glare ‘disturbing.’”

Basically, the survey found that 88% of drivers noticed headlight glare, with 31% saying the glare is “disturbing.” While headlight intensity may extend the visibility of objects ahead of drivers, the glare also seems to increase the discomfort of other drivers and pedestrians. This glare can also reduce visibility by reducing contrast or causing drivers to turn away from the roadway to avoid any eye discomfort.

Science explains why LED lights seem so much brighter than halogen. This phenomenon is called color temperature. While many may think lights are clear, each light has a spectrum ranging from orange-yellow to blue-white. The brighter the light, the bluer the light. LEDs and HIDs hit on the blue-white spectrum where the halogen is closer to the orange-yellow.

Studies have found that these blue-

white lights tend to hit people’s eyes harder, especially in the dark. Those cooler color temperatures can be blinding but are also helpful when behind the wheel as they illuminate farther distances. And, when it comes right down to the science, these bluer lights are not actually brighter than the yellow spectrum.

Some auto repair shops say factory lights are typically brighter than after-market. These after-market lights have

simply been changed from the original factory model. The most common cause of visually brighter lights is that they have not been appropriately adjusted for that vehicle. They are also difficult to calibrate due to not having an environment in which to adjust (not dark enough or long enough spaces to test them). The worst part? Enforcement is difficult as there are no reliable ways to measure these lumens. l

Homegrown fine dining new in Davis County

By Alisha Copfer alisha.c@davisjournal.com

FARMINGTON—Looking for good-tasting, affordable, healthy, yet quick food options in Davis County? Vessel Kitchen just opened its sixth location in Farmington to serve its fans in the area better.

“We are tremendously thankful to have the opportunity to bring our culinary ideas to life to be enjoyed by more people,” said Nick Gradinger, Co-Founder of Vessel Kitchen. “At every turn, we have strived to put our team first and stay true to who we are as a brand, and we believe that, paired with the overwhelming community support, has made all the difference.”

Gradinger and Brian Reeder started the concept for Vessel Kitchen in 2016 in Park City. Gradinger is originally from San Diego, California, and came to Utah about 10 years ago. He started working in Kimball Junction and quickly realized the disparity of restaurants in the area. “I started paying attention to the culinary life, and I felt like we could do better,” said Gradinger.

Reeder met Gradinger shortly after, and they “hit it off from moment one,” he said. They both agreed that they didn’t want to sacrifice quality or taste for the cost of running the business. A few short months later, Roe’e Levy joined the team as the restaurant’s Culinary Director.

“Between a mountain of fast food and a handful of great restaurants out of reach for daily dining, we saw an opportunity for something better: a fine dining vibe at fast, casual affordability and convenience,” says Vessel’s website, vesselkitchen.com. “Bright, clean and authentic. Scratch preparation and flavors from around the world. This may be an uncommon concept, but it’s every day at Vessel.”

Vessel Kitchen prides itself on having great-tasting,

high-quality food while remaining affordable. Everything is made fresh from scratch and has a Mediterranean twist with Asian and Latin influences, but it is described as New American comfort food. Gradinger describes this as “cuisine agnostic.” No matter what eating style people have, they can always find something at Vessel that fits their needs and tastes, from keto to gluten-free.

Although Vessel Kitchen opened its first doors in 2016 at the location in Midvale, they have branched out quickly. Gradinger described the events starting in Park City, “but looked at the valley and knew that we needed to be down there.” They were even able to complete construction and open the doors to the 9th and 9th location in 2020, all during COVID. “It was a really challenging time but really rewarding,” said Gradinger.

And they are still trying to lower prices while bettering their menu. They have so much variety available that anyone can eat there two to three times a week and not get bored with the menu options. “We’re your neighbors; we take so much pride in being a homegrown company, and we never want to lose sight of that small-family feel.”

The new Farmington location features classic Vessel elements that guests have come to expect from this unique restaurant concept but will also play on the owners’ desire to innovate and experiment through the addition of new restaurant characteristics, such as an open-format kitchen design. The storefront will also debut an overhauled design aesthetic celebrating the new while honoring Vessel’s roots through the addition of natural tones and woodland designs, paying homage to the first restaurant in Park City. l

Kids create their own broadcast Tiger News

18 to 20 and they could only have 20 at a time. I wanted to get more kids involved so we have 25 total in it.”

BOUNTIFUL---It’s not unusual to watch a newscast with journalists in front of the camera interviewing and earnestly reporting on the latest news. It’s not so common to see fifth and sixth graders doing it. At Adelaide Elementary kids are interviewing classmates and teachers for the Tiger News, a broadcast written and produced by the students.

“Mr. Westergard came to me and asked if he could do a broadcast,” said Principal Patty Arbon. “I thought it was a great way to include kids. It’s so fun.”

They’re good at it, she said. “It gives them confidence. Some kids stay behind the scenes but they really know what they’re doing. It’s nice seeing them work together as a team.”

“I have a friend that works at Woods Cross Elementary and I heard about it there,” said school counselor Christian Westergard. “I graduated in broadcast journalism so I thought ‘can we do it here?’ I went over one day to see what they do.”

From a grant and other donations, Westergard was able to purchase some equipment. “We did a survey to see if there was interest,” he said. “We had 51 students show interest in it. At other schools they had

There’s a mix of fifth and sixth graders, said Westergard. “It’s been fantastic. The teachers recommend students who are in good standing and the principal and vice principal choose a few more. We rotate so it’s a revolving door. The kids do it all by choice.”

They work on the broadcast Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays during lunch, he said. “We try to squeeze in as much as we can.”

It’s run like a class in college, Westergard said. “I’ve left a lot to them. I help them a little with producing, then I tell them to go out and get to work. They’ve worked really well together.”

Everyone came up with the rules they all had to follow, he said. “I teach each group things like how to frame a shot, be a camera operator and reporter. If they’re the anchor I remind them to smile, relax and about the inflection in their voice because the camera drains it.”

One of the kids is really good at editing, said Westergard. “I want them to teach each other if someone knows how.”

The kids come up with the questions to ask, he said. “They want to know the teachers’ hobbies, etc. and to think outside the box. Things they want to know about

teachers and students. We try to keep it uplifting and positive.”

Westergard said the opportunity to grow is what drew him to it. “I don’t want the kids to just interview people but to get to know each other better. The school didn’t feel unified with empathy toward each other. Now on the playground first and second graders are coming up to the kids and saying ‘I saw you on the news.’ They’re talking to each other and the faculty has

been really good.”

The students compile and edit the newscast, he said. “Then I put it together in a special program I have. I cut, edit and piece it together and stream it. I send it to the teachers and when they have a minute to show it, they show it in their classes.”

Westergard said he doesn’t push the kids too much. “I just want them to grow so that they come out of it with some knowledge.”l

Pantry helps more than 1,000 kids have a Merry Christmas

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

BOUNTIFUL—Christmas morning every child waits with anticipation to see what’s under the tree. Unfortunately, for some kids there’s not much there. However, the Bountiful Food Pantry was able to make Christmas a little brighter for more than 1,000 kids through its Sub for Santa program.

“It was amazing,” said Executive Director, Rebekah Anderson. “Prior to COVID it was 700. It’s gone up significantly. We had 243 people who adopted kids and got presents for them. It’s exciting.”

Anderson said for families with a lot of kids they partnered with a business. “We don’t want it to be taxing on a family.”

The Salvation Army closes for two months to run their Sub for Santa, she said. “The pantry doesn’t have the space for the gifts so we make the list and vet that the applicants are low income and need help then one of the ‘Santas’ buys gifts for the kids and delivers them to the family.”

It’s a lot of work, said Anderson. “It takes a lot of time but we don’t sacrifice what the pantry does here for people who need to eat. We’ve partnered with Head Start. They basically know a whole bunch of kids that have a need. They’re really good partners.”

It’s worth it to make sure kids get help,

she said. “All over the need is growing. It’s up 18%. I’m not surprised.”

Social services are changing too, Anderson said. “SNAP was paying the maximum amount during COVID but at the

end of February it will go back to normal. Clients could lose $175 to $200 a month. They’re also going to stop rent relief. If they were receiving all of that and then it stops they could be in trouble.”

Inflation continues to rise and rise and rise, she said. “I’m sure we’ll have more families next Christmas and see a lot more people coming through our doors.”

Just on site the pantry has served 5,600 individuals this year, said Anderson. “We’ve also sent some to other organizations. We’ve served 111% more people than December 2021 and in November even more – 177% more than November 2021.”

Every single pantry has seen clients who have never needed help before, she said. “The need is going to grow until the economy stabilizes and it doesn't look like that’s going to happen.”

The pantry counts on upcoming food drives to bolster its supply, said Anderson. “Scouting for Food is Feb. 11 where scouts collect food at grocery stores. Save Utah is March 18. That’s huge for us. It helps carry us through to Christmas. Those are really big days for us.”

They can also use financial donations, she said. “We can use the money to buy diapers and other essential items and buy what we need at any particular time.”

Anderson said they’re blessed at the pantry. “We’ve fed everybody that needs it. We haven’t had to cut back on any services. The community has been absolutely spectacular. We would have had to cut back on services the need is so great.” l

Man breaks into home, sets it on fire

SOUTH WEBER—Police arrested a man last week who allegedly broke into a home, sexually assaulted a woman and set the house on fire. The woman was able to escape but authorities said the home was a total loss.

Jeffry Scott Hansen, 65, was booked into the Davis County Jail on suspicion of first-degree felony charges of aggravated arson, aggravated kidnapping, aggravated burglary and aggravated sexual assault and other misdemeanors.

According to charging documents, Hansen allegedly used a knife to break into the home through the dog door. Once inside he threatened the woman with the knife and made her handcuff herself then he allegedly duct taped her mouth and ankles. The woman was able to hit Hansen on the head with her handcuffed hands, free herself from the tape and run from the house. Hansen allegedly set the fire with a lighter.

When police arrived, Hansen was on the front porch with the lighter. Police arrested Hansen after using a taser on him when he refused to comply with the officers’ commands.

1973

During the period 1939-69, 836 cloudburst floods were recorded in Utah according to a report that describes the results of a cooperative investigation of the occurrence of cloudburst floods in the state. Cloudburst floods occurred during the period in most areas of the state, but were most common along the Wasatch front.

1983

Tons of dirt, rock and other debris have been dumped along the Great Salt Lake Causeway to Antelope Island in an effort to “beef up” the banks of eroding roadway. State Department of Transportation crews in the past have had a heck of a time keeping the three and a half mile stretch of the causeway in good repair. Several times in the past years entire sections of the two-lane road have washed out and had to be replaced.

Treat your adult children as adults

My wife recently had lunch with a woman who lamented that she felt “awkward” around her adult children and their spouses.

My wife responded, “Maybe the answer is to treat your adult children like they are – adults. They are independent souls, and you can enjoy them as such, not as children who are still growing up.”

CYCLOPS

BY BRYAN GRAY

which you have brought home, planted, and can hardly wait to see how it will turn out.”

Viewpoints on children, both young and grown, differ widely. I once had a friend tell me that his cantankerous father “hated all of his children equally,” seeing them as intruders into his once much simpler life. On the other hand, many readers have heard parents proclaim that “you can’t know what true love and happiness are until you have children.” (I often wonder how this comment impacts the couple who cannot have children. Can they not experience love or happiness in their lives without a bassinet?)

Of course, for the vast majority, children are a given. Some are more wanted than others and some are born at inconvenient times, but most of us accept having children as a responsibility needing care and comfort – and most of us do our best in creating a healthy environment producing respectful and productive sons and daughters.

But going back to my wife’s advice to her friend at the beginning of this column…

In her autobiography, author Agatha Christie described her joy at watching her daughter’s development:

“There is nothing more thrilling in this world than having a child that is yours and yet is mysteriously a stranger,” she wrote. “You are the gate through which it came into this world, and you will be allowed to have charge of it for a period of years. After that it will leave you and blossom out into its own free life, and there it is for you to watch living its life in freedom. A child is like a strange plant

Not everything turns out well, of course. Parents can be disappointed, angered, and regretful. Some parents have faced financial challenges due to health issues or rehab payments. But one thing parents should not regret is that a child did not turn out just like them!

We should celebrate that our children are not cookie-cutter semblances of mom and dad. Our children are individuals having their own inclinations, opportunities, and challenges.

On a personal level, my wife and I count four children (two of hers, two of mine) in our family. They are all different in temperament and have chosen vastly different careers. My son and daughter live in Las Vegas; one is a successful restaurant manager, and one is an entertainment writer. My wife has a son, a sought-after documentary filmmaker, who with his wife just moved from their home in El Salvador to a new residence in the tiny eastern European country of Montenegro. Her daughter, who teaches at an Oakland, California high school, periodically travels across the country instructing other teachers wanting to polish their skills.

None of them compete against each other. All have their own personalities. All of them have at one time or another made my wife or me wince – and they have probably raised an eyebrow by a few of the things we have done as well.

That’s the way it should be. Acknowledge their lives as adults and love them. Yes, some things are pretty simple.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

So many can’t see the forest for the trees

Dear Editor:

Cyclops is simply shortsighted when he speaks about Trump. I agree, many historically will regard him as having been a neighborhood bully but only because there are so many who can’t see the forest for the trees. After all you need look no further than who they elected to replace him and the quandary of misery that has followed. I am a little older and became somewhat of a “political junkie” since following the Watergate hearings all those years ago and have been, for the most part, “unaffiliated politically” for most of my adult life and have voted both ways over a number of Presidential elections. If you are capable of looking beyond the rhetoric and some of the former Presidents’ antics which I agree were ill advised and do an objective comparison you would see that internationally and domes-

tically, this so called “carnival barker” did more for putting our country first and more for you and every other American than any previous President in at least the last 50 years. Trump took a business approach to governing that many people, who have never had the responsibility for producing anything tangible, or could understand but for those of us who do understand and were looking for results he was a breath of fresh air. Those Rinos, to include one of our very own, who stood in the way have only proven to be part of the Beltway Swamp that continue to be driven by personal greed or envy of the former President or, simply put, just can't see the forest for the trees.

Flaws vs blessings

I found a quote on the internet that goes: I have too many flaws to be perfect, but too many blessings to be ungrateful. Now here’s something we know about – FLAWS. For some reason it seems that we’ve been given more than our fair share. I’ve complained about them, but somehow, they keep popping up. They must be purposeful!

JOHN WATERBURY

own mortal experience (end quote).

In the song “Let the Lower Lights Be Burning” by Philip P. Bliss, I find some solace in the words: Brightly beams our Father’s mercy, from His lighthouse evermore, but to us He gives the keeping of the lights along the shore. Let the lower lights be burning! Send the gleam across the wave! Some poor struggling, fainting seaman you may rescue, you may save. And the last verse: Trim your feeble lamp, my brother; some poor sailor, tempest lost, trying now to make the harbor, in the darkness may be lost.

I think these words are referring to us and the responsibility we have to love God and our fellowman. Maybe that’s the purpose of our flaws; to make us aware of the pains that others may be in the midst of.

Mortality seems to be filled with challenges and loss that may tend to confuse all of us, but I’ve come to realize that they are not mere coincidences, and they’re not our enemies. Elder Jeffery R. Holland addressed this issue very specifically when in the October Conference of 2010 he stated: …the tests of life are tailored for our own best interests, and all will face the burdens best suited to their

We have all been trained well to understand what the Gospel of Jesus Christ teaches us; that we are children of God, that we had a divine beginning, and we undoubtedly will have a divine future. But yet we tend to slip back so easily at times to incorrect thinking patterns – patterns that are rooted in insecurity and confusion, resulting in depression and uncertainty. On those occasions, we seem to forget who we are. Fortunately, Heavenly Father understands this pattern in our lives and inspires His General Authorities to remind us. For instance, Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf, in 2009 wrote: Referring to Gospel knowledge…. it changes everything. It changes your present. It can change your future. And it can change the world (end quote).

May we remember who we are and why we’re here. Our time is now. The future is ours. And it is in the midst of adversity that we become aware of our strengths. So, share your strengths, share your love. Decide to enjoy the ride.

Since then, he has written a weekly column for several years for the Davis County Clipper titled “The Dear John Letters” which was also used throughout the intermountain West focusing on addiction and mental health problems. This new column will focus on mental health and life management issues. l

Run for Fun?

The only motivation to start running is to get it over with.

BY KAIIMILANI CROCKETT DAVIS JOURNAL INTERN

About 12 weeks ago, my sister and I decided we wanted to run a half marathon for her birthday in February. We found a beginner’s guide to running a half marathon online and began training. The training initially entailed running three times a week, two shorter runs in the weekday and a longer run on the weekend. I started my training with a measly two miles, at the beginning I thought this was the hardest task I would ever have to face in my life. I was so unsure how I could run 11.1 additional miles, two was already quite terrible. I dreaded every run, however over extended time I found myself enjoying my new hobby. I timed myself each time trying to lower my mile pace and looked forward to the days I would run. As the race approaches, the runs lengthen, and I find the task, surprisingly, much easier. I would

even go as far as to say that running has become quite peaceful and a sense of therapy to me, as it allows me to clear my head.

I have learned many lessons from running such as, spending money on quality shoes is a necessity, I can in fact, drip sweat from every pore, and most importantly I can do much more than I ever imagined. In life I’ve tended to shy away from tasks that I think will require more than bare minimum effort, when instead I should grasp the discomfort and allow myself to struggle a little bit. Bill Gates famously said, “It’s fine to celebrate success but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.”

WHAT TO WATCH

Streaming TV options offer sweet, spooky fun

By Jenniffer Wardell The Movie Guru

Abbott Elementary (ABC, Hulu)

If you’ve wondered why the cast “Abbott Elementary” have been cleaning up this awards season, here’s your chance to find out.

The show, now in its second season, is one of the most charming, heartwarming shows currently airing right now. The jokes are delightfully silly, but there are moments of genuine tenderness and insight among them. It’s like a sweeter, less awkward version of “The Office,” complete with a ridiculous boss and a gently burgeoning romance a la Jim and Pam.

Since “Abbott Elementary” is a network television show, the episodes are essentially independent rather than pieces of a season-long story. Watching an entire

chunk of episodes will give you a sense of some subtle season-long development, but you can also enjoy it an episode or two at a time and not feel left hanging. (Also, stay through the credits. They always save a funny scene for while they’re playing.)

Wednesday (Netflix)

You can always tell when an actor loves the character they’re playing.

That’s definitely the case with “Wednesday,” which follows the Addams teen as she goes away to school, untangles dark mysteries, and finds friends against her will. Though the show’s grasp of Addams characterization is flawed at times – Gomez and Morticia think way too traditionally on several occasions – Wednesday herself is nearly perfect. That’s due to Jenna Ortega, who is deadly, delightfully serious about making sure her character marches to the beat of her

own funeral dirge.

I’d watch Ortega’s Wednesday do nearly anything – her deadpan one-liners are a consistent treat – but the show does provide enough mystery to keep her occupied. It’s best when she is forced to accept the help of her roommate Enid (Emma Myers), a pastel goth sweetheart with a wild side of her own. The two are a delightful odd couple, and I’m excited to see their chemistry grow when the show returns for season 2.

National Treasure: Edge of History (Disney+)

Imagine the “National Treasure” movies as young adult novels.

That’s the feel of the new series, which takes away Nicholas Cage and replaces it with a young woman discovering the secrets in her family’s past. It also moves the history from America down to Mexico, though it keeps the

OUT AND ABOUT

By Jenniffer Wardell The Movie Guru

same structure of secret societies and key clues found in major tourist sites. It also keeps the same classic sense of adventure, capable of being both silly and achingly serious depending on the moment.

There’s also a definite YA element, well beyond just having a young woman as a protagonist. The lead girl’s best friends are the main supporting characters, and throughout the series she’s romantically torn between a friend and a mysterious new boy. It doesn't take away from the adventure, and for some viewers it may be a fun bonus.

After all, even a classic series needs a new perspective every now and then.

Sundance: last-minute tips for festival attendees

Alittle pre-planning can help everything go smoother. That’s definitely the case with the Sundance Film Festival, which officially kicks off this weekend. Whether you’re planning to watch the festival offerings in-person at a Salt Lake venue or have some online options scheduled, here are a few notes to help make the process as smooth and interesting as possible.

If you’re going in person

Tickets

All of this year’s tickets are on the Sundance app, so make sure you have the 2023 app download and test it to make sure you’re comfortable using the various features. If your data coverage is spotty, or if you just have a phobia of awkwardly holding up lines, take a screenshot of the ticket’s QR code before you get to the theater. It will scan just as easily as the QR code and isn’t dependent on Wi-Fi or data. Arriving at the theater

Festival rules state that you have to be in line at least 15 minutes before the movie starts, but since seating is firstcome, first-served you’re going to want to be there a lot faster. If you have a ticket you won’t miss the screening, but there’s a chance you’ll end up sitting in the very back corner of the theater. If you care about where you sit for the movie, earlier is better than later.

This is especially true at Gateway, where one screening

will actually be held in multiple theaters. This won’t affect your viewing of the movie itself, but if you’ve paid for a live Q&A you’re going to want to get there early enough to get a seat in the designated primary theater. Those in the alternate theaters will get the Q&A simulcast to them as it happens.

If you’re watching online

Be patient

Watching Sundance from the comfort of your own home has its advantages, but there are also some drawbacks. Though the short films and indie episodic lineup will be available from the start of the festival, the feature films won’t be available until Jan. 24. When they do become available you have until Jan. 29 to watch them, but once you hit play you only have five hours before you lose access for good. For the indie episodic lineup you have 12 hours, and for the short films there isn’t any limit.

Check your requirements

While you can access your online selections from either their program page or your festival schedule, you also need a TV or computer that won’t glitch up on you. Your PCs need at least Windows 10, and tablets need either Chrome or Safari depending on the brand. Smart TVs can handle it if they have the Sundance Film Festival Player TV app, but screen mirroring won’t be an option no matter what you use. For more specific details, visit https://festival.sundance.org/how-to-fest/ how-to-watch/online-screening-window-rules.

For everyone

Between the weather, the roads, and the crowds, it’s hard

come,

for even in-person festival goers to make it all the way up to Park City. Thankfully, Sundance is filming several of this year’s Beyond Film talks and putting them online starting Jan. 24 at 8 a.m. (the Collab Spotlight Event will go online Jan. 26 at 5:30 p.m.). Most of the talks will be available until Jan. 29, and you can watch them either by going to their Beyond Film page or signing in to festival.sundance.org and adding them to your favorites list. It’s a great way to experience the heart of the festival without having to drive all the way to Park City.

Region 5 boys basketball schedule begins; Davis keeping pace in Region 1

By Josh McFadden joshm@mycityjournals.com

Region 1 boys basketball teams finally tipped off league play, a week or two after most of the other regions in the state. Woods Cross and Bountiful both got off to 1-0 starts.

Woods Cross

The Wildcats moved to 10-3 on the season by winning their opening Region 1 contest over Box Elder on Jan. 13. The victory was hardly an easy one, as the Wildcats prevailed in a low-scoring affair, 45-44. It was Woods Cross’ second-lowest scoring output of the season, next to its 38 points in a 25-point loss to Olympus on Dec. 8.

But strong defense helped get the win for the Wildcats. Woods Cross limited Box Elder to just 20 points in the second half. The Bees also made just 16 shots all evening. For the Wildcats, Jaxon Smith paced the team with 16 points. Mason Bendinger had 11 points. Alex Brey might have been the biggest overall contributor in the game, as he scored seven points and pulled down 12 rebounds.

The Wildcats faced Bountiful at home on Wednesday before hosting Northridge on Friday.

Bountiful and Viewmont

As for the Redhawks, they also began the region season at 1-0. Bountiful snapped a four-game losing streak to move to 5-7 overall by defeating Viewmont 64-53 on Jan. 13.

The Redhawks scored 23 of their 64 points in the final quarter alone. This was important because the Vikings managed 20 points of their own over the final six minutes –after just 33 points in the first three quarters. Viewmont shot just 36% on the day, but the Redhawks were blistering hot from the field, making 25 of 44 shots. However, Bountiful struggled from the foul line, going just 10 of 19. Viewmont had a hard time with foul shots too, as the Vikings were only 9 of 17 from the line.

Carson Smith led all scorers with 17 points, as the Bountiful star also had six rebounds and four assists. Sam Stevenson had 14 points and seven rebounds, while Danny Holland chipped in 10 points and three assists. For Viewmont, Zach Robison had 14 points, three rebounds and three assists. Scott Noel contributed 10 points and seven rebounds. The loss dropped Viewmont to 5-9 overall.

On Wednesday, Viewmont played at Northridge. The Vikings host Bonneville on Friday. After Bountiful’s clash with Woods Cross on Wednesday, the Redhawks entertain Box Elder on Friday.

Davis

A year after finishing as state runner-up in Class 6A, Davis has found the going to be a little tougher this season. The Darts were 6-5 in non-region play but have improved to 9-6 overall thanks to a 3-1 start in Region 1 contests. At our press time, Davis is in second place, a game behind Fremont.

Davis went 2-0 last week to improve its fortunes, with one blowout and one down-to-the-wire close game. First was an 82-55 rout of Weber, followed by a 69-67 overtime victory over Syracuse on Jan. 13. Early on, the win over Syracuse looked like it wouldn’t happen. Davis was down 22-10 after one quarter and 36-21 at halftime. The Darts were down by as many as 20 points in the first half.

The second half belonged to Davis.

After cutting the lead to 51-38 at the end of the fourth quarter, Davis outscored Syracuse 18-5 in the fourth quarter to force overtime at 56-56. In the extra session, Davis outlasted the Titans thanks to a 13-11 run. Hot shooting from the field in the second half (65%) and clutch free-throw shooting in quarters two and three (88%) helped fuel the comeback win.

Davis’

Farmington

The Phoenix have had the opposite season so far that Davis has had. Farmington started off 8-2 in non-region play but have struggled to a 1-3 league start.

Of course, it’s not as though Farmington is getting run out of the gym. The Phoenix have lost all three region games by fewer than eight points. Last week on Jan. 13, Farmington fell to 0-3 with a 59-57 loss at home to Layton. Farmington looked to have this one in hand early on, racing to a 37-26 halftime lead. But the Lancers charged back with a 33-20 advantage in the second half. Farmington lost despite making more shots from the field (20) than Layton (17). However, the Lancers made seven three-pointers to Farmington’s five. Also, Layton made six more free throws than the Phoenix.

Paul Beattie had 17 points for Farmington, while Cole Johnson added 12 points. Ethan Atkinson had 11 points to round out the double-figure scorers for the Phoenix.

Farmington notched its first region win of the season on Tuesday by dispatching Syracuse 64-59. This time, it was Jayden Haskell who led the way for Farmington by scoring 17 points. Beattie had 12, and Atkinson scored 11. Farmington plays at Weber on Friday. l

65-36 Jan. 12. The Redhawks extended a 15-point halftime margin to a blowout with 32 more points in the second half.

Taylor Harvey put in three 3-pointers as part of her 17 points, including three 3-pointers and also had six rebounds to lead Bountiful. Milika Satuala, Lizzy McConkie and Claire Cook all scored 12 points each to also produce offensively. Jordyn Harvey’s eight rebounds led Bountiful on the glass while the senior also added nine points.

The Redhawks start Region 5 1-0 and improved to 10-1 overall.

Davis defeated Weber 60-29 Jan. 10.

The Darts had a monster first half – outscoring the Warriors 38 to 18 before pouring on 18 more points to lead 54 to 23 entering the final quarter.

Aryanna Bull put in 15 points to lead Davis with Kendra Kitchen adding 14.

Against Syracuse Jan. 13, Davis won 42-33. After losing by two at half, the Darts scored 20 points to enter the third quarter

Viewmont

VIewmont beat fourth-ranked Woods Cross 56-54 in overtime Jan. 12. The Vikings came back from a 30-16 halftime deficit to take the game to overtime where they outscored the Wildcats 9-7.

“It was another game that was a tale of two halves,” said head coach Cameron Gardner. “We got off to a quick start in the first and scored eight points pretty quick and then Woods Cross went on a run. To start the second half, Kristina Gunnell and Emma Mulitalo both knocked down a three-pointer to cut the lead. By the end of the third we had cut the deficit to two points. In the fourth quarter Mara Mickelson had eight of our 13 points to go to overtime.”

Mulitalo led Viewmont with 16 points, including three 3-pointers while also pulling down seven rebounds. Mickelson and Gunnell combined for 24 points and Lissia Silva was tops in rebounding with eight.

The Vikings evened their season record to 7-7 and have begun Region 5 play 1-0.

Woods Cross

In Woods Cross’ two-point overtime loss to Viewmont Jan. 12, Kenna Cowley led the Wildcats with 21 points, four rebounds and five steals while Mari Nichols and Georgia Hatton added 10 each.

“We played a really good first half and reminded the girls that the game was not over and we had to play with the same urgency in the second half as we did in the first,” said head coach David Simon. “We did not do that and we watched a good lead disappear very quickly in the third quarter. From there, it was just a battle of effort and execution and eventually we came out on the short end of that. Credit Viewmont for continuing to play hard and make good things happen.”

Woods Cross fell to 0-1 in Region 5 and 9-3 on the season. l

FHS SWIMMER BREAKS SCHOOL RECORD

There are some recipes that actually are famous when it comes to bread: artisan, sourdoughs, even wheat.

Having moved to Utah from Oregon, it took me a hot minute before I discovered the Lion House Rolls! They are exceptionally versatile. They can be made fresh, rolled then frozen or even shaped into crescent rolls. Their ingredients are usually kept on hand in the pantry. Breads sometimes take a bit of practice, but these are so successful – even for the beginner (true statement). Do not be intimidated because of their name – this recipe was used in a home – baked for a family. I mixed up a batch, baked half and froze the other half. Two weeks later, I took them out of the freezer, and within 1.5 hours they had risen up beautifully. This truly is a keeper recipe. Thank you for sharing Lion House – I salute you!

a mixer. All of this can be done by hand as well. The dough should be soft but not overly sticky and not too stiff. Scrape the dough off the sides of the bowl and pour approximately one tablespoon of vegetable oil around the side of the bowl. Turn the dough over in the bowl so it is covered by oil (helps to prevent dry out). Cover with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about an hour).

combine the water and the milk powder – stir so the milk dissolves.

Add the yeast to the mixture while it is still warm. Let the yeast proof (dissolve and start to react) for a couple of minutes. Cover with a towel until the yeast is foamy. Next add sugar, salt, butter, egg and two cups of the flour. Mix on low speed until ingredients are wet, then turn to medium speed and mix for two minutes. Stop the mixer and add three more cups of flour (now five cups total added so far). Mix on low speed until ingredients are wet, then turn the mixer on medium speed and mix for two minutes to knead. The dough will be getting stiffer.

Add up to 1/2 cup flour. You might not need to add it all – just slowly until the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl if using

Sprinkle the counter with flour and place the dough on it. You want to put enough flour on the dough so that it is workable and not sticky. You can roll these into crescent rolls or do it the traditional Lion House way. For the Lion House way: Divide dough into two equal portions. Roll each portion into a rectangle about 11x14 inches and 1/4 inch thick. Brush with melted butter. I probably use 1/4 cup melted butter for both portions. You then want to cut the rectangle into smaller rectangles that are 2x4ish. Then you roll them into the Lion House shape which is rolled with the tail of the roll touching the baking sheet (note picture) and place them in greased – or parchment lined – baking pans with the end of the roll resting on the pan. Cover again with a kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until the rolls are doubled in size (1-1 1/2 hours). Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes

or until they are lightly browned. Brush with melted salted butter while hot.

*Freezing Option*

After the first rise, shape the rolls, but do not let rise. Instead, place rolls on a baking sheet and immediately place them in the freezer. When dough is frozen solid, remove rolls from the pan, place in a plastic bag and remove excess air out of the bag. They can be frozen for up to three weeks. To bake after freezing, place rolls on a prepared pan (cover with towel) and let rolls rise in a warm place until doubled. This could take up to two hours since they were frozen. Bake as directed – then brush with butter (yum)!

Farmington High’s Mason Draxler won the 200 freestyle with a school record time of 1:48.92 in a meet with Box Elder, Woods Cross, Bountiful, Fremont, Layton Christian Academy, Viewmont and Bonneville. He is now the school record holder for every event for the school.

Q: Has John Goodman ever done a singing role? He has such a distinctive voice, so I’d love to hear him sing.

A: If your goal is just to hear John Goodman (of “Roseanne” and “The Connors”) sing, then the 1998 big-screen sequel “Blues Brothers 2000” has you covered. According to most critics, it doesn’t deliver much else.

This 18-years-later sequel to the cult classic “Blues Brothers” (1980) is one of

the most hated cinematic followups of all time. (“It makes an audience pay for every two seconds of pleasure with 10 seconds of pain,” the San Francisco Chronicle’s Mick LaSalle said). The soundtrack was about the only thing that people liked about it, and that had a lot to do with Goodman’s big baritone voice — he plays a member of the titular Blues Brothers band, so he gets to show it off quite a bit.

That voice also got him some of his earliest lead roles. He was one of the main characters in the oddball 1986 musical film “True Stories,” a passion project from Talking Heads singer David Byrne, and got to perform an original Talking Heads song (“People Like Us”) written specifically for the film.

A few years later, he played the title role in the modest comedic hit “King Ralph”

(1991). He got to do a couple of musical numbers as a low-rent lounge singer who, through a pretty convoluted set of circumstances, becomes the King of Great Britain.

Q: Am I right in noticing essentially the same plot in two black-andwhite “Gunsmoke” episodes? About a disgruntled farmer who comes into Dodge to seek revenge? The dialogue was even similar in the two episodes.

A: We have to cut the writers some slack here — there are only so many Wild West stories to tell, and “Gunsmoke” had to come up with enough to fill 20 seasons.

Two popular story wells they often drew from were: vigilante justice and honest

farmers done wrong. The episodes you refer to just happened to draw from both at the same time.

Indeed, these were popular enough story tropes for the classic western series (which ran on CBS from 1955 to 1975) that I couldn’t actually pinpoint which episodes you’re referring to. My best guesses are the Season 2 episode “Executioner” and the Season 4 installment “Lynching Man.” But your description could also apply to a few others.

And so, you’re certainly right that “Gunsmoke” got repetitive with its storylines. You know who else agrees with that? Burt Reynolds.

Celebrity Profile

Every now and again, an actor comes along who immediately makes viewers feel like a part of their friend group. More often than not, they convey an air of sincerity and familiarity, which helps to put the audience at ease and bring them deeper into the story being told on screen. Such is the case with Meagan Good, who returns with an onscreen friend group of her own in Season 2 of “Harlem,” premiering Friday, Feb. 3, on Prime Video.

The series, which was nominated for two NAACP Image Awards for its first season (one for Outstanding Comedy Series and another for Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series), follows four best friends — Camille (Good), Tye (Jerrie Johnson, “Mother’s Milk,” 2021), Angie (Shoniqua Shandai, “Bodied,” 2017) and Quinn (Grace Byers, “Empire”) — as they experience life’s ups and downs while finding their footing in relationships and careers in the Manhattan neighborhood of Harlem.

Also working hard this past year (and more) is series star Good, who, in addition to her work in the series, starred in “Day Shift” (2022) and has been preparing for her upcoming role continuation as superhero Darla in this year’s “Shazam!” (2019) sequel, “Shazam! Fury of the Gods.”

Born Meagan Monique Good on Aug. 8, 1981, in Panorama City, Calif., to Tyra Wardlow-Doyle, who would become her future manager, and LAPD officer Leondis “Leon” Good, “Harlem’s” budding starlet began her career at age four, acting in TV commercials. By age 10, she had already made her TV series debut as an unnamed young girl in an episode of the Emmy-winning procedural thriller “Gabriel’s Fire,” starring James Earl Jones (“Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” 2016).

Born June 24, 1958, in Salt Lake City, Utah, and passed away Jan. 15, 2023. Her family and friends are heartbroken to announce the passing of Bonnie from complications of heart, liver and kidney diseases. Bonnie graduated from Bountiful High School, then Utah State University in clothing and textiles, and enjoyed working at Sun Classics creating costumes for a variety of television and film companies. In 1980, she met her eternal companion Kevin and married in the Salt Lake Temple. They later welcomed two children into their home, Ian and Alyssa, whom she adored, along with a number of nieces and nephews that she loved to visit and support.

She is survived by her husband, Kevin; her children, Ian and Alyssa; her siblings Rita, Tresa, David (Linda), Karen (Anthony) and Tiffany (Doug); and her nieces and nephews, all of whom she loved dearly; preceded in death by her mother, Margery Horsley.

She is also mourned by a myriad of friends who enriched her life and made her health issues easier to bear. From her childhood friends Laurel and Kitt, Cindy and Mark and Jan and Scott, to her Aggie friends, Janene, Pam and Cindy, and then in later years, Ruland and Karen, Jon and Marlene, Lane and Joy, Nate and Jena and Cindy and Kent. She enjoyed traveling to church history sites and new places, having lunch and dinner with her close friends and discussing gospel topics. The annual visit to Meadow for family reunions was always a highlight of her year.

Bonnie was passionate about family history and genealogy and enjoyed her callings going into homes and teaching how to search family history until her health would no longer permit those activities. She was equally passionate about gardening and loved to grow her own fruit and vegetables, which were regular menu items on the Howard dinner table. She loved to quilt with family members. But as the neighborhood will attest, she was never happier than when she was driving her Jeep Wrangler with a commercial-grade snow blade around the neighborhood, clearing snow from driveways.

She loved listening to the Tabernacle Choir, Church Conference and podcasts on gospel

doctrine-related subjects. She took especially great pleasure in furnishing her husband the name of an ancestor each week to encourage him to get on with his family history work.

Of all the qualities which are most admired and needed in the world today, Bonnie possessed them in abundance. Beset by overwhelming illness and disease, she showed courage, grace and humility in breathtaking quantities in facing those challenges, never complaining and always putting the needs of others before her own.

She will be sorely missed by all her family and friends but never forgotten. Rest in peace, sweetheart, until we reunite again.

Please join us to celebrate Bonnie’s life and legacy in a viewing service that will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 20, 2023, at Russon Mortuary, 295 N. Main Street, Bountiful, Utah.

Then her funeral service will be held Saturday at 11 a.m. at the Springwood Ward located at 165 Monarch Drive, Bountiful, where a viewing will be held from 9:45 -10:45 a.m. prior to services.

IN THE SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT FOR DAVIS COUNTY STATE OF UTAH

BLAZETON – Karly Kindling sparked surprise in the people watching last night’s basketball game between the Southside Scorchers and the Eastside Embers at Flaming Torch High School.

“I ate a burrito just before the game,” said Karly. “I overdid it with the hot sauce I added. The burrito caused my stomach to be a bit upset when I started the game.”

The burrito caused stomach gas to form in the belly of the star forward for the Eastside Embers. Just as she caught the ball from a teammate, she burped.

The burp caused a burst of flame to shoot out of her mouth, burning the basketball to a crisp.

“Karly took it well. She took a big breath and got right back in the game, shooting a three-pointer with a new ball moments later,” said coach Coalsworth.

“But from now on,” said Coalsworth, “our players will be sticking with orange slices and ice water before a game!”
