District begins French Dual Language Immersion study

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

NORTH SALT LAKE—The Davis School District has several dual language immersion programs and at Foxboro and Odyssey Elementaries it’s French. Recently, parents at both schools have expressed concern as there has been talk of combining the programs into one school.

At the last school board workshop Elementary Director Traci Robbins gave an overview of the study that is being conducted to determine what changes may need to be made to provide the best learning experience in a

President Russell M Nelson wins

Morehouse Peace Prize

Russell M. Nelson, 95 year old President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was selected as this year’s recipient of the Gandhi-King-Mandela Peace Prize given out by Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia. In a press release from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Morehouse stated that President Nelson would be receiving this award for his global efforts in “abandoning attitudes and actions of prejudice against any group of God’s children” through nonviolent ways. Nelson himself will not be attending the ceremony, though representatives of the church leadership will be on hand to accept the award on his behalf.

Possible Trump Indictment

The Manhattan D.A.’s office has indicated that it will likely proceed with an indictment and arrest of former president Donald Trump in the financial fraud case involving money paid to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. As of press time, no official date had been announced, though rumors of an arrest early in the week had led to some scattered pro-Trump protests in various locations. Given the potential for crowd violence, there is some speculation that the process could be handled remotely, or at least discretely. There is also a chance that the D.A. will choose not to proceed with an indictment.

NCAA Brackets dominated by upsets

As March Madness heads into its second week, the statistical chances of any brackets out there remaining “unbroken” is now very remote. During the first day of competition, Number 1 Seed Purdue was eliminated by the relatively unknown Farleigh Dickinson, a 16 seed. 15 seed Princeton beat 7 seed Missouri; 8 seed Arkansas beat 1 seed Kansas; and 7 seed Michigan State beat 2 seed Marquette. Purdue’s loss is being called the “greatest bracket upset in the history of the tournament.” FDU went on to lose the Florida Atlantic in the next round after its historic win.

Canyon Gallery Celebrates its 32nd Anniversary

By Megan Gleason m.gleason@mycityjournals.com

KAYSVILLE—The Canyon Gallery has been a feature of Main Street for the last six years but a staple for the artistic community for much longer. March marks 32 years of business serving the Kaysville and Fruit Heights communities. The business was founded in 1991 by Ernest Davenport and was originally a part of the Rock Loft but moved to Main Street in 2017. They are best known for their expertise in custom framing; however, the Canyon Gallery has expanded over the years, now proudly featuring gallery works by distinguished Utah artists from all over the state. It is now owned and run by Katherine Dahlstet, who bought the gallery in 2017 when the Rock Loft building was sold.

Previously a travel agent, Dahlstet had been longtime friends with the previous owners.

“I decided to take the jump,” she said about purchasing the business. “This seemed like a more pleasant place to be. And it is. I love being around the art and having people bring in all the things they want to have framed.”

Within the shop's retail space, the Canyon Gallery displays an elegant selection of some of Utah's most recognized artists. Included within this is a special

section devoted to LaConte Stewart, a well-respected artist, and professor who was based out of Kaysville. The section houses an impressive collection of some of Stewart's original works and several books detailing his life as an artist. Stewart was best known for his paintings featuring local Utah landscapes, highlighting the area’s natural beauty.

“He was quite the character,” Dahlstet said. “Everyone knew him around town.”

While the selection of artwork is an impressive feature, the Canyon Gallery makes custom framing into an art form in and of itself. Offering a wide variety of frames, mats, fillets, and glass, Dahlstet and her staff do private consultations with all of their customers, lending their expertise to create truly magnificent pieces of art.

“What works for the art is my first goal,” Dahlstet said.

From paintings to shadow boxes, the Canyon Gallery is ready to frame even the most challenging pieces. Dahlstet spoke of some of the more unique pieces brought in to be framed, including a bit of wallpaper from a grandmother’s kitchen to knick-knacks collected on trips.

“Unlike McDonald’s, we don’t have the same people come through the drive-thru every day,” she said. “We never know who’s going to walk in the door. It’s

kind of an ongoing surprise party.”

Main Street has evolved over the years into a primary road, but many businesses, such as the Canyon Gallery,

continue to bring history and community to the area.

“Parking's a challenge,” said Dahlstet. “But we're worth it.” l

Commander gives update on Hill Air Force Base

Sentinel missile is the replacement for the Minuteman. Its capabilities are terrifying to bad guys.”

KAYSVILLE—Hill Air Force Base (HAFB) is the largest single employer with 27,000 members but not everyone knows what goes on there. Col. Jeffrey G. Holland, 75th Air Base Wing and Installation Commander gave an update to the Davis Chamber last week about what’s happening at the base.

“There are amazing things that are only done at Hill,” said Holland. “One of the biggest is support installation for the Ogden Air Logistics Complex. If you walk into a hangar you’ll see the F16 skin peeled away being rebuilt for the U.S. Air Force.”

When President Biden went to Kyiv the 388th Fighter Wing was called in, he said. “While he was on the train going to Kyiv the 388th was on the ground in Poland ready to step in with an immediate response of force if the Russians tried anything.”

Airplanes are flying computers, said Holland. “There’s a lot of software that goes into flying and the aircraft has kept up with technology. That’s a huge piece of Hill’s operation that most people don’t even know exists.”

The Minuteman missile was first built in the 1970s and designed to last 10 years, he said. “They’re still going now and the maintenance on the equipment is done at HAFB. The

Holland said the Utah Test and Training Range, operated by Hill, is very important to the nation. “We can launch missiles into space and see what they can take. Air to ground inert training is typically done there.”

The area around the base is growing, he said. “The population around HAFB is shifting to the north. When airmen come to Utah they tend to want to stay, especially those nearing retirement.”

Hill and the state partnered in an Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) that allows Hill to competitively lease underutilized land to a private entity. Then the land is developed into commercial property. “HAFB has a lot of very valuable land,” said Holland. “It’s a way to keep all of the money inside of the state. It’s a unique opportunity for the community and for the base. As the community gets bigger we’ll create the infrastructure along the way.”

It matters where you live, he said. “You want to step out of work and go home. We do have our challenges though. Folks don’t always feel as welcome as they should. The community can be tough to get into.”

Holland said Hill wants to foster inclusive communities. “We want to help. We need Hill to be a popular place. We want airmen to want to come here. We’re team players.” l

Part of the process is to look at school demographics, transportation needs, Title I, preschool, social behavior and if it impacts where students move to, Robbins said. “We also have to consider staffing availability and cost, visa and work eligibility, class size and student attrition.”

Robbins said other considerations

• Effects of possible program adjustments on school demographics

Know Your Lemons highlights 12 symptoms of breast cancer to educate women and their doctors

By Peri Kinder peri.k@davisjournal.com

Women have been taught to check for lumps when screening for breast cancer, but what most people don’t know is there are 12 symptoms that could be an indicator of breast cancer.

Bountiful resident Dr. Corrine Ellsworth-Beaumont (MFA PhD.) has made it her mission to educate women and girls of every age to help them be informed when it comes to breast health. She created the nonprofit Know Your Lemons to help save lives and educate women around the world.

“People don’t know how to have the conversation,” she said. “We don’t talk about breasts and no one’s really challenged that. As we’re implementing the program in schools, we talk about every part of the body except breasts and there’s this implicit message that there’s nothing to know.”

Ellsworth-Beaumont said everyone should graduate from high school knowing the 12 signs of breast cancer that include skin sores, orange-peel skin, a sunken nipple or a dimple in the breast.

When a close friend died from breast cancer, Ellsworth-Beaumont was working as a professor in a business school in London. After her friend’s death, she left her job and put all her efforts into the Know Your Lemons nonprofit. She was stunned at the lack of information about breast health, even in the medical community.

Her goal is to educate women in a way to help them get familiar with their own breasts. That includes understanding breast anatomy

like milk ducts and lymph nodes and what a cancerous lump feels like. It’s often hard, like a lemon seed, and doesn’t move.

“We don’t talk about breast anatomy or how breasts change during menstrual cycles,” Ellsworth-Beaumont said. “When we’re told to self-exam and feel for a lump, we’re given no information about anatomy, we don’t understand about breast cycles, you don’t know what that lump feels like.”

She worries misinformation about breast screening will discourage women from scheduling mammograms and doing self-exams. Social media propagates the myth that mammograms are dangerous when the screening actually saves lives. Unfortunately, Utah has one of the lowest screen rates in the country, ranked 50 out of 52 (including Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico).

The Know Your Lemons main image details the 12 signs of breast cancer, displayed on lemons. She wants to get the poster and postcards in as many doctor’s offices, schools and women’s health centers as possible.

Because the image is universally understood across languages and cultures, Ellsworth-Beaumont has partnered with health care systems around the world to bring the information to nearly 60 countries. She often has to explain that talking about breast health is not the same as sex education, or that high school girls are not too young for the information.

“Breasts are not sexual organs. Breasts reproduce nothing but we have linked those two things so concretely that people don’t think breast health is different from sexual health,” she said.

She’s heard numerous stories from women who saw the lemon images and recognized

their own breast cancer symptoms. Young women, especially, have a hard time convincing their doctors to screen for cancer, thinking they’re not old enough for breast cancer. The image empowers women to be their own advocates and not back down.

The Know Your Lemons app is a breast health and period tracker but unlike other period tracking apps, this one doesn’t collect data. The app was funded by donations and grants and was named the best women’s health app in the world from The Webby Awards. For more information, visit KnowYourLemons.

org. The foundation is also raising money to fund a $300,000 mammogram machine in the Bahamas by raffling a trip to the Bahamas. Visit the website for more information.

“It’s humbling to know I can help someone change their story,” said Ellsworth-Beaumont. “I don’t think it sinks most of the time, but once in a while I get a moment where I pause and reflect on what’s happening and that keeps me going. So many women have reached out saying the poster or the app helped them recognize the symptoms.” l

Clearfield’s Ayzjiahna Wood crowned 2024 Miss Teen Volunteer America

By Peri Kinder peri.k@davisjournal.com

Ayzjiahna Wood, 17, from Clearfield, was crowned the 2024 Miss Teen Volunteer America, following a highly competitive pageant held at the Carl Perkins Civic Center in Jackson, Tenn. She triumphed over a talented field of young women from across the country to secure this prestigious title.

As the newly crowned Miss Teen Volunteer America, Ayzjiahna will represent the Miss Volunteer America pageant system and have the opportunity to continue her community service work. This victory will give her the platform to make a positive impact on the world and inspire other young women to follow in her footsteps.

Ayzjiahna shared images from the pageant on her Instagram page and wrote, “This is so surreal for me, truly it is and I cannot express enough how much your support means to me…I feel so incredibly blessed to be going into this chapter of my life representing such an incredible system. I just can’t express enough the gratitude I have for the people surrounding me and for what is to come. I am filled with love.”

The Miss Volunteer America pageant is a nationwide, service-oriented scholarship program that empowers young women through educational scholarships and extraordinary opportunities. The system encourages its participants to give back to their communities, making a positive impact through volunteer work.

Founder and CEO of the Miss Volunteer America pageant system, Allison DeMarcus, expressed her delight in announcing the new Miss Teen Volunteer America.

“We are thrilled to have Ayzjiahna Wood as our new Miss Teen Volunteer America. Her unwavering dedication to service and exceptional leadership skills make her an ideal

role model for young women everywhere.”

On Jan. 7 this year, Ayzjiahna was crowned Miss Utah Teen Volunteer, which qualified her for the national pageant. Her service platform for the year will be “Creating a culture of Inclusion.”

The Miss Utah Volunteer organization provides $20,000 in educational scholarships and crowns three titleholders who spend their year leveraging volunteerism in Utah by promoting their S.E.R.V.E. initiatives and integrating service throughout the state. Along with Ayzjiahna, Gentry Rose was crowned Miss Utah Volunteer and Rowan Meagher was named Miss Utah Beehive Princess Volunteer.

“We are excited to have these young ladies work and volunteer in their communities and be examples to those around them of what can be accomplished when one takes the initiative to stand up and serve,” said Kellie Buckale, who serves on the executive board of the Miss Utah Volunteer Organization. “When someone speaks and acts in a way that inspires others, we celebrate them for finding their voice and using it for good. Miss Utah Volunteer strives to be that person. The one who inspires women around the state to stand in their truth without apology and follow their dreams to the end.”

Ayzjiahna is no stranger to pageants. She won Miss Utah Teen in 2021 and was the fourth runner-up in Miss Teen USA. For more information, visit www.missvolunteeramerica.net.

“Our organization is more than just a pageant, more than putting a crown on a young women’s head and handing them scholarship money,” Buckale said. “We are an organization of action, one that puts service at the forefront of our focus, promotes sisterhood to all that wish to join us and in turn creating a rich diversity in culture, attitude, opportunity and talent.” l

‘We’re here for you’ service program helps feed men at Red Barn

By Becky Ginos becky.g@davisjournal.com

FARMINGTON—The men at Red Barn Academy are working hard every day to pull themselves out of addiction and crime and become productive citizens. Most of them go to jobs during the day and need a lunch to take along. Ken Garff employees jumped in last week to pack lunches for the residents and then delivered them to Red Barn.

“We were brainstorming what we could do for our ‘We’re here for you’ service program,” said Emma Checketts, Ken Garff community partnership and events manager. “Many of our employees had experience with addiction in their families so they were passionate about this community and could really connect.”

The program is service oriented, said Checketts. “We want to give back to the community and not just write a check. We want to do something meaningful.”

Red Barn often gets food donated but they don’t get to choose what they want, she said. “They gave us a list of what they’d like to take with them as they go to work. We packed what they had on the list plus a few extra things and notes saying

things like ‘people are thinking about you’ because they don’t have contact with anyone outside.”

The next day after packing the lunches, employees delivered the snack bag and treated the men to a catered meal. “Then they told us what Red Barn is and gave us a tour of the facility,” Checketts said.

The service program really started when COVID hit, she said. “We wanted to give back to the community businesses that were hard hit. We knew how blessed we were because we were still afloat when many were not.”

The company helped through COVID but it’s grown, said Checketts. “Now it’s not COVID driven. We do what employees are passionate about and serve local communities as well.”

Each store does a project every quarter, she said. “It helps employees get outside of themselves and outside of the store. We’ve gotten great feedback from employees because they’re getting involved with picking the organization we’re going to serve. It’s exciting.”

They’ve also done different projects downtown, Checketts said. “We do a veteran meal drive at Thanksgiving. The employees are so passionate about it because some of them are veterans or their

family members are.” This year was the most attended she said. “We gave out 500 meals and all the fixings. It was so cold but it was cool to see the veterans and employees in tears. It was such a special thing.”

Ken Garff also hosts the Mr. and Mrs. Inspiration pageant with TURN special education services, Checketts said. “Some

of them come in a tux and with flowers. The contestants tell the judges about their lives and what they’re interested in. Then the panel chooses. When Mr. Inspiration won, he was so excited he was dancing.” Checketts said she has the best job working in the service program. “It’s super fun – I love it.” l

Largest food drive in Utah sees one more successful year

By Alisha Copfer alisha.c@davisjournal.com

BOUNTIFUL—Every March, for many years, for a long time, communities have come together all across Utah to help their local food banks. Like most years prior, the Bountiful Food Pantry was no exception. On Saturday, March 18, the Feed Utah Drive brought in over 150,000 pounds of food from local residents to the Bountiful pantry.

Over 66,000 flyers and bags were distributed throughout Davis County to inform residents of this food drive. Then on Saturday, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints sent members into their neighborhoods to gather the bags of food. “Over this week, we will see even more of these brought in,” said Anderson.

Unlike other smaller ones, this food drive involved many people and organizations coming together for a greater cause.

“We had an army of people gathering food for the drive,” said Bountiful Food Pantry Executive Director Rebekah Anderson.

Anderson explained that in Bountiful, things have to work just a bit differently due to “the generosity of the community.” The food pantry isn’t set up for that many dona-

tions at a time, so they set up three satellite locations for the day (Woods Cross High School and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ward buildings in Centerville and Farmington) in order to participate in this state-wide collection event. “This system makes it easier for people to donate,” Anderson said.

From volunteers helping to collect the bags of food to organizations donating equipment to help move it from place to place, the pantry seemed particularly excited this year. Anderson said she had three semi trucks provided to help the cause, two from Pride Trucking and one from Walmart. These semis helped to move the donations from the satellite drop off locations back to the pantry in Bountiful.

Once all the food donations were back at the pantry, they also had forklifts provided to help move things around; Holly Refining Company provided one. The pantry had many volunteers at all of the locations to help sort the food and get it to where it needed to be.

Anderson said this event is hosted by the Utah Food Bank and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints working together. “With all of these partners, everybody gets together to help on that one day,” she said. l

There are a few fundamentals of color harmony and light control that affect not only the millionaire’s mansion but every home whatever the size or cost. By a little study of these fundamentals one is able to change a room that is a veritable riot or nerve shock into one of refinement.

Last year the city fathers passed the necessary regulatory measures for orderly tree planting on the city streets. This was a most commendable forward looking move and should be backed up by every homeowner who has the welfare of the city at heart. The Lions Club were among the prime movers for this new order last year and are on the job again this season. They should be complimented in sponsoring such an activity as one of the club’s projects.

Within the past three weeks, about 400 articles of clothing and knitted items for men in the armed forces, have been shipped from the Davis County chapter of the Red Cross at Bountiful. Included were 189 boys flannel and cotton shirts, 27 sweaters for servicemen, 17 sweaters for civilians, 42 men’s and boys pajamas, 25 children's pajamas, 20 pair child rompers, 43 pairs olive drab wristlets, four helmets and scarves, 11 mufflers, six women slips and dresses, one convalescent robe, one large knitted shawl and three bed jackets.

Closure of the left diversion tunnel restricting the flow of the Colorado River and thus initiating the storage of water in Lake Powell (Glen Canyon Reservoir) was accomplished Wednesday, the bureau of reclamation announces. The commissioner of reclamation issued instructions to commence storage immediately in order to take advantage of fortuitous circumstances which will permit earlier storage than was originally anticipated.

An oil slick which covered more than 20 acres of Farmington Bay Bird Refuge and threatened the lives of thousands of waterfowl was brought under control this week. Extent of damage to the refuge area and the source of oil which spilled some 10,000 gallons into the marsh area used as a migrant bird sanctuary are still under investigation.

Trump has right to his opinions but not his own facts

Be prepared! This is the time – 600 days away from the next presidential election – you will receive countless pleas from candidates and their election committees. Their mailers will request a donation along with messages like “There is no time to waste!”

CYCLOPS

BY BRYAN GRAY

I received my first mailer this week. It was auto-signed by Donald J. Trump asking me for a small monetary contribution (from $35 to $5,000) to help his “heroic efforts” to save America. Once again, he promised to “drain the swamp,” letting me know that he is already Utah’s favorite candidate to win the Republican nomination. His request for money contained the same assertions he made in 2016. And there lies the problem.

Sorry, Mr. Trump. You have a right to your own opinions, but not your own facts. Sure, Joe Biden is weak, has flip-flopped on several issues since his election, seriously mismanaged our military exit from Afghanistan, and wasn’t timely in explaining the Chinese balloon incident. But Trump’s letter skirts the truth.

He claims without explanation that Pres. Biden is “corrupt.” This is ironic considering it comes from a man who, among other shenanigans, paid hush money for sex and then deducted it from his taxes as a legal expense.

He claims inflation was caused by government spending and puts the blame on Democrats. If he is referring to the pandemic payments to individuals and businesses, he was the president who signed the bill, and those payments halted long ago. Our current inflation is caused by spending, a “you can’t take it with you” attitude since the pandemic. It’s not Joe Biden who is spending money on travel and restaurants

Rage Against the Machine

and entertainment and autos; it’s you and me! Inflation rates have actually decreased in the past few months, and, as any reputable economist will tell you, the chairman of the Federal Reserve has a much larger impact on inflation than any elected official.

Trump incorrectly says the “Biden Democrats want to defund the police.” Actually only a small sliver of Democrats support defunding and Pres. Biden’s budget has large increases for law enforcement.

He claims that violent crime is so bad “killings are taking place like nobody has ever seen, right in Manhattan!” Wrong! The murder rate in New York is at its lowest since 2019 – when Trump was president.

He blames Biden for his support of the “Green New Deal.” Funny, just last night the “green” environmentalists were criticizing Biden’s support of Arctic oil drilling. And Trump’s letter concluding that the news media, Washington-based employees and “education bureaucrats” are enemies of America is ludicrous. Just because a majority of newspaper editors disagree with you, doesn’t make them an enemy of this country. And in all my years I’ve yet to see any public school bureaucrat (principal, school board member, etc.) hating America – or assaulting a U.S. Capitol policeman!

What will I do with his letter? Since he enclosed a postage-paid envelope, I will mail it back empty. At least the U.S. Postal Service will benefit and Trump can foot the bill.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Emotional bodycam footage

Icannot watch the bodycam of the Farmington Police killing 25 year old Chase Allan without tears. Clearly Allan was arguing and resisting. He appeared to argue constitutional issues which he has a right to do. And he has a right to resist knowing there will likely be consequences to not following the order of police. And Allan knew that his license plate was not within the norm for Utah. He didn’t have to comply with Utah driving laws—he could have walked to wherever he thought he needed to go, probably driving for almost 10 years before this tragedy. The place to argue the Constitution and our rights is in the courtroom—not on the side of a road with five men with guns on their hips.

The officer correctly called for backup and at least five officers surrounded Allan. The officers could also have waited Allan out, called for a mental health specialist or a negotiator to facilitate a non-violent arrest. Surely there were some other options before busting windows and physically attacking Allan?

It appears that Allan does comply with giving identification and it does appear that Allan switches his phone from his right hand to his left hand. Was Allan attempting to undo the seatbelt with his right hand and get out as the officer insisted? Perhaps.

But most, if not all, of the officers got frightened, “puckered” and fired their weapons when one officer yelled “Gun…” Within the law enforcement brotherhood

the saying is, “Better to be tried by 12 than carried by six.” And they are justified in believing that. We read officers are killed across the U.S. every day and the officers have rights too and want to go home to their families at the end of the workday like the rest of us. We, the public, get to second guess while the officers have to make split-second decisions and debate later. The bodycam shows that the seatbelt was still around Allan when they jerked him out of the car.

So I cry as I see Allan slammed face down on the asphalt dying or already dead. One officer notes that there is at least one headshot. It appears that the officer’s priority at that point is to hand cuff Allan behind his back. Allan was no longer resisting, full of holes and no longer a threat. Was not administering first aid the priority at that point rather than handcuffs?

Such a waste. When I think of how much the family, the community and the state had invested in this young man I am still in shock at how fast it can all come to an end. What is wrong with our U.S. culture? Are not our children receiving a constant barrage of violence: T.V., movies, news, comic books and video games. Is not our society enamored with violence and gun culture? Are we still in the vigilante period of the old west? Perhaps, or are we in hell?

Celebrating an anniversary or a 70th, 80th or 90th birthday?

Are you planning a wedding or have you just had one?

How cute is that 1-year-old child or grandchild of yours?

The Davis Journal wants to help you spread the word. Please submit a photo and a short writeup of whatever you are celebrating or planning to our editor at becky.g@ davisjournal.com.

This is a great way to let the community know what’s happening in your world. Our publications go into mailboxes each Friday and are produced on Mondays and Tuesdays of that week. So your deadline would be Monday at 5 p.m.

First, robots came for assembly line workers. Then they came for agricultural and warehouse jobs. Then a cyborg assassin time-traveled from 2029 to 1984 to kill Sarah Connor. What will artificial intelligence target next?

If you ask our publisher, journalism is on the robotic chopping block. He recently sat down with our editorial team and told us we’d better get our act together or AI will certainly replace us within five years.

LIFE & LAUGHTER

BY PERI KINDER

Let us help you tell the world! From your friends and neighbors at the Davis Journal!

It’s the plot of every sci-fi movie. “Let’s merge robotic efficiency and human connection to create a utopian workplace.” But then, the robots download a virus and turn into killing machines. It doesn’t end well for humanity.

But let’s back up a bit. When encyclopedias were created in the 1700s, people were astonished to have so much information at their fingertips. What’s an encyclopedia you ask? Thanks for asking, young whippersnapper.

Encyclopedias are books bound in fake leather that weigh the equivalent of a baby hippo. They were like printed versions of Wikipedia that became outdated as soon as they were purchased. They were used for footstools and sometimes for murder weapons.

They were also used for rampant plagiarism. Teachers often received essays copied straight from Encyclopedia Britannica.

As technology advanced, plagiarism got easier with the ability to copy-and-paste from any website; more efficient and much harder to detect. Then along came chatbots, or virtual assistants, like Siri, who learned to answer our stupid questions with a bit of sass.

Now, journalists are encouraged to use AI to produce copy. ChatGPT launched in November and millions of people have tried it out, creating everything from poetry to fake news. It’s like a Google search on steroids.

In fact, it’s so good at creating fake news, that the CNET media website published stories for months before the articles were discovered to be riddled with errors, misinformation and plagiarized material.

Oops.

Following my publisher’s orders, I typed a few questions into ChatGPT and immediately ran into a virtual brick wall.

“How many people are living on Earth?” I asked.

ChatGPT replied 7.9 billion but added its data ended in September 2021. I guess anyone born after that date doesn’t count. I asked it to tell me a joke. ChatGPT explained it didn’t have a sense of humor or emotions and didn’t understand jokes. So it could be a Utah legislator.

So, will AI adapt to create personality, voice, humor and journalistic ethics or will future generations get used to reading pedantic and pretentious articles written by emotionless robots like Tucker Carlson?

Sometimes, the “journalism” churned out by AI is racist, offensive and inappropriate because, and here’s the issue, humans create code for these bots. Fallible, stupid humans who unintentionally create programming that mimics their own limiting beliefs.

In These Times writer Hamilton Nolan said, “Journalism is the product of a human mind. If something did not come from a human mind, it is not journalism.”

He said journalism requires accountability. The writer should be able to explain the origins and sources of any story. Can AI do that? Will robots request interviews from other robots? When questioned, will AI fall to pieces like HAL in 2001: A Space Odyssey after being given contradictory orders: lie to the crew but be completely truthful. Pretty much like anything on Twitter.

I’m mixing movie metaphors, but if Sarah Connor’s interactions with the Terminator taught us anything, it’s that we control our own destiny. Can we unite robotic efficiency and humanity? The fate of journalism could hang in the balance.

Mental health and why does life have to be so difficult?

In one way or another, we’ve all been there. We’ve all experienced the pain and frustration when life is not as we think it should be. These are the times that we need to put ourselves into motion, even though we may not want to. These are the times when our reserves may have been depleted, and yet we still find ourselves in the midst of a battle.

JOHN WATERBURY

We’ve all known despair: Our physical and emotional aches and pains become immobilizing. Our capacities seem insufficient or nonexistent. And just when we’re sure it can’t get any worse, it does. Everyone has been there. And unless there is some kind of intervention to help us through the morass, we may believe that the problem is bigger than we are. But don’t believe it.

Despair can make us feel that life is unmanageable, but it’s not. Despair can make us believe that our damaged self-esteem will never recover, but it will. Despair may even make us feel that we’ve been imprisoned by our hopeless and helpless feelings, and that we’ll never get out, but we will, because the cell door has never been locked.

While it’s possible to identify our thinking errors and replace them with healthier thoughts, it may be difficult since these thinking errors may be generations in depth. However, this journey is well-worth the effort. Use the pain as the motivation to make the journey.

By changing the old rules and distortions, the battle between light and darkness can be understood and managed much more successfully, empowering us to move to higher levels. In this manner, we finally learn that the only way to develop the light of resilience is to face the darkness of disappointment and

futility; that the only way to develop the light of confidence is to face the darkness of our fears; that the only way to develop the light of spiritual and emotional depth is to face the darkness of confusion and hesitancy; that the only way to develop the light of balance and design is to face the darkness of uncertainty and chaos; and ultimately, that the only way to enjoy all the light of happiness is to intentionally do battle with the author of darkness, doubt, and despair; for darkness cannot tolerate the light. And when we accomplish this, we evolve into a higher being.

In 2 Cor 4:8, Paul addressed many of these issues very well when he wrote of his own growth: We are troubled on every side, but not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; cast down, but not destroyed (end quote.) These concepts were written for us.

Paul understood that our battles with darkness, invariably, lead to a desire for the light.

And finally, don’t run from the pain. Face it. Manage it. If pain is not a central part of your life, then the plan is not working. Take charge. Make the effort. Don’t settle for less. Redefine yourself. Enjoy the light.

Davis & Weber County Canal Company increases secondary water rates

By Cindi Mansell c.mansell@mycityjournals.com

Kaysville City residents are serviced by three different secondary water providers: Haight’s Creek, Davis & Weber County Canal Company (DWCC), and Benchland.

DWCC General Manager Rick Smith recently briefed the City Council on a secondary water rate study to analyze revenues and expenditures to meet operations and management, capital improvements, secondary metering, and repair and replacement. He discussed the challenges associated with severe and extreme drought the last three years and said the current status of reservoirs and snowpack brings some level of comfort. He said the Utah State Legislature passed legislation in 2022 requiring secondary water connections on all meters by 2030.

DWCC serves approximately one third of the city with secondary water. Kaysville City provides the billing for DWCC and remits the collected fees each month, for which Kaysville City collects a minor administrative fee for services. The Agreement with DWCC states that rates “may be amended periodically by Kaysville City and the canal company to reflect changes in operations and maintenance, changes in the Service Area and other expenses.”

Smith said the rate analysis and assessment included the state mandated metering as well as future capital projects. He said rates

had not been raised since 2011 and the secondary metering will push their finances and budget to the edge. He said DWCC had been actively working on installing meters on their approximately 13,000 connections (they have approximately 3,900 locations metered due to new development and a Bureau of Reclamation Grant). They have already received $10 million in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funding; used loans to spread the costs out and hoped to find additional grants or funding to help with this project. DWCC is requesting an immediate rate change.

Fred Philpot, Production Team Manager & Consultant from Lewis Young Roberts & Burningham, Inc. (LYRB), said his team helped run financial performa. He said when doing these studies, they look at ensuring revenue consistency to balance cash reserve and fund balance. They typically look at 5-year planning and beyond as it relates to capital investment; in this case, there is not enough reserve to maintain infrastructure needs. Philpot provided examples of scenarios with no action and needed rates to assume revenue increases to promote sustainability. The plan is to review the rates every 2-5 years. He said the new recommended fees are based on this analysis and include factoring of lot size and meter size to capture utilization within the system. He said the DWCC Board chose to limit the maximum increase to 25%.

When asked how DWCC rates compare to the other two local water providers, Smith said “they are very similar, as they are all

A burst of blossoms signal spring at State Capitol

By Kerry Angelbuer k.angelbuer@mycityjournals.com

Early in spring near the end of March, the 433 Yoshino cherry blossoms unfurl into their palest-pink glory on the Memorial pathway surrounding the Utah State Capital. Residents of Davis County access this gem by exiting on Beck Street and taking Victory Road up to the Capitol. Road parking directly to the north of the Capitol is only steps from the trail. A Japanese legend describes a maiden fairy that awakens the sleeping cherry trees with her delicate breath late in March with the magic remaining for only a few weeks. Maybe the maiden was recently eating almonds, which would explain the faint almond scent the blossoms give off. Shortly after the blossoms fall, a very small fruit forms which attracts birds and butterflies to the pathway. These cherry blossoms are the same variety that adorns the cherry blossom walk in Washington, D.C. The trail is less that a mile and meanders past monuments adorned with art and vintage lampposts. The wide, white sand trail is easy to walk, and dogs are allowed if you are willing to clean up after them. Many benches allow for picnics or meditating on the beauties of spring. Although sunshine and blue sky is a pretty backdrop, the path would also be lovely in the evening or after a spring snowstorm.

The cherry trees were originally a gift from Japan following World War II symbolizing reconciliation and friendship.

In Japan, the fleeting blooming season of the Sakura (Japanese word for cherry blossom) symbolizes the impermanence of life. “The cycle of life, death and rebirth, on the one hand, and of productive and reproductive powers, on the other,” Anthropologist, Ohnuki Tierney said.

The original cherry trees, however, were damaged in the tornado that touched down briefly in Salt Lake City in 1999. During the capitol restoration project from 2004-2008 the trail was replanted and updated. The trees will eventually grow to 50 feet tall and last for 80 years. Monuments along the path include a memorial for soldiers who fought in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos and another to WWII veterans. The impressive monument to the Mormon Battalion features a stoic soldier, as well as many other characters of that time. The Native American woman and child above the water feature is particularly moving.

Expect to see other's enjoying the trail on a beautiful spring afternoon. Girls in prom dresses or even wedding gowns take advantage of the feminine beauty of the pink blossoms. Being next to the State Capitol, a law student in formal robes posed for a memorial photograph. Some spring bulbs are also blooming in nearby beds. After a long winter, it is just good to see green lawn stretching in all directions linking the trail with the art and Capitol Building. The Capitol is also similar to the one honoring the nation because of its beautiful copper dome crowning the experience. l

mandate.” Because the council really has no control, they requested that city staff investigate renegotiation of the agreement to prevent this from having to come before them as an action item in the future. To enact rate fee increases as proposed by DWCC, the City Council unanimously adopted a resolution to update their FY 2023 Consolidated Fee Schedule effective Feb. 1, 2023.

“This process is more of notification or formality; Kaysville City is not benefiting

ru of collection of fees,” said Mayor Tami Tran. “The hope for metering is that if more residents in Utah knew how much water they were using, they would voluntarily conserve.” Meters communicate water use and help communities, businesses, and residents strive for greater water conservation. Studies have found that information provided by meters can help property owners reduce water use up to 30% or more.l

Ultimate ‘Bread’ experience concert set for April 10

BOUNTIFUL—Relive the 70s when the soft rock band Bread was a sensation with hits like “Make It With You,” “It Don’t Matter to Me, “Baby I’m-A-Want You” and “Aubrey” at the TOAST – The Ultimate Bread Experience benefit concert April 10.

The tribute band is a local favorite and often described as “just like the original.”

Due to some budget shortfalls because the Bountiful City’s Music in the Park Concert Series had to cancel the Christmas concert, funds will be less than they normally

receive. Proceeds from the Christmas Concerts are added to the concert budget which usually doubles revenue.

In an effort to raise the funds needed to keep the Music in the Park series going this summer, TOAST is holding a benefit concert at the Woods Cross High School Auditorium April 10 at 7 p.m. The show is appropriate for all ages. Tickets are $25 at breadtribute.com. Woods Cross High is located at 600 W. 2200 South. l

Centerville moves forward with plans for pickleball courts at Community Park

Linda Petersen lpetersen@mycityjournals.com

Afterdiscussing a potential location for more than a year, Centerville City officials have taken the first step in getting pickleball courts installed at Community Park: they’ve hired a landscape architect. For just under $20,000 G Brown Design will come up with a plan for eight pickleball courts in the northeast corner of the park.

Over the course of several months last year, the city council explored and received public feedback on where to locate the pickleball courts.. Along with Community Park, the council also considered Freedom Hills, Porter Walton and Smoot Park. Smith Park and Community Park emerged as the most likely sites but ultimately the city council settled on Community Park.

While there is strong support for pickleball courts in the community, some residents have voiced opposition to them because they can be noisy, particularly in the early-morning or late-evening hours. In the end, those impacts seemed to be less at Community Park compared to any other of the city’s parks, city council members said.

“I think as a council I think we are well and clearly able to say you do not have an expectation of quiet if you live next to Community Park,” Councilmember George McEwan said at a Feb. 7 city council

meeting. “I think that’s fair and clear to say that, and while we will probably field some resident complaints about pickleball, I think we’re very clear to say that’s the property that you live by.”

“I think we’ll be losing some more mosquito habitat along the way,” he added.

Once G Brown Design completes its work, a request for proposals can go out to contractors. G Brown Design estimates construction of the pickleball courts would take about four months. City officials had hoped G Brown Design’s bid would be closer to $10,000, but they are getting more for their money, Councilmember Gina Hirst said.

“While the proposal from G Brown came in higher … it is not a conceptual plan which we approved in June,” she said. “This is for the entire design and construction oversight.”

At the council work session that evening where the project was discussed in detail, Mayor Clark Wilkinson allowed interested community members to share their opinions. (Generally there is no public comment allowed during work sessions). Most favored moving ahead with the project at Community Park.

“There were several comments from the public that I was taking notes on, and the general feelings are ‘Just get it done’ – that was the number one theme that I heard,” McEwan said.l

Girls lacrosse teams showing up stronger in numbers and in talent

By Catherine Garrett c.garrett@mycityjournals.com

Davis

Four juniors return for Davis High’s team and will be key in the Darts’ success this season, according to Head Coach Makenzie Hekking. Midfielders Mackenzie Coleman and Olivia Lifferth, attacker Kaydence Johnson and defender Tallulah Raser along with freshman newcomer KC Gardiner lead a group that team returns after a 2022 campaign that was cut short in the 6A playoffs with a first-ever loss to Syracuse.

“The intent for every season is to always improve and do better than the last year, but there is a hunger to get it again after a really good season,” said Hekking.

The focus for Davis this off-season turned to toughness from a physical and mental standpoint. “Some referees let more physicality happen in the postseason last year and we struggled to adapt to that,” Hekking said. “We want our girls to be more gritty and have an underdog mentality so if it doesn’t suck, we aren’t doing it. We’re going to constantly be trying to change things up when they start to get comfortable.”

Hekking also said an emphasis on extra work in strength and conditioning, fundamentals and stick skills will also be key moving forward for the Darts program. “Competition is getting more and more tough as there is a lot of growth and progress in the sport happening around us,” she said. “I’ve had to tell our girls that talent isn’t enough anymore and we don’t have that advantage anymore.”

Also on the DHS squad this year are seniors Ruby Jane Hollingsworth and Emma Williams; juniors Kennedy Barker, Nina Groth, Ellie Henderson, Ida Kanstrup, Brooklyn McKenzie, Andrea Nichols, Kerri Norton, Elisabeth Reid, Gracie Rose, Hibiki Usui, Brinlee Wilding and Ally Wintle; sophomores Sommer Blaser, Avery Bray, Lucy Bybee, Jacey Compton, Esther Facer, Alyssa Hall, Katei Harman, Bridget Hartwell, Ellie Ivie, Sophie Karras, Lily Mickalson, Sydney Plummer, Jayden Tatton and Julie Weger; and freshmen Katie Harman, Miley Medell and Elizabeth Neeley.

Hekking is being assisted on the coaching staff by Jon Bunch, Devon Williams, Wayne Rose and DHS alum Ava Bair.

The Darts began the season March 9 with a game against No. 4 Lone Peak which didn’t exactly start as planned, even before taking the field. “It wasn’t going to be an easy game anyways, but we had bus issues which ended up making us late to the game so we didn’t get a full warm-up,” Hekking said. Despite a 19-6 loss, Hekking noted that “bright spots” in the game were that half of the team’s goals were assisted and that her girls worked hard and “showed heart.” “That tells me that this year’s squad is going to play more as a team,” she said. “It was good to see the level of play our girls need to be at to be competitive for state and I hope that we take the lessons from this game to heart and play more physically and disciplined.”

Coleman, Raser and Rose all scored two goals each to lead the Davis offense.

Against Fremont March 14, the Darts pulled out a 15-14 win, coming back from a two-goal deficit at halftime to get their first win of the season.

“We played really well,” Hekking said. “We found ourselves down and had to make

some adjustments at defense, but once we started winning the draw and getting shots on cage we were able to equalize the score.”

Raser “ended up going off for us in the second half,” scoring five unassisted goals to put Davis up by five. “Credit to Fremont as they fought back and got some quick goals off of the draw, but we were able to hold on for the one-goal win,” Hekking said. “Mackenzie [Coleman] played amazing for us taking the draw and contributing to us winning that battle with 17 draw controls for the team with Olivia [Lifferth] winning seven of those draw controls individually. It was also a team affair as we had eight different players score and nine players contribute points for the team win.”

Facer’s three goals were tops for the Darts while Johnson (two goals), Coleman (one goal), Lifferth (one goal), Norton (one goal), Rose (one goal), Wilding (one goal) and Williams (one assist) were also part of the offense.

Against Farmington March 16, Davis lost 11-7.

“It was a rough game,” said Hekking. “The game was super physical and at times outright dirty, so much so that the refs paused the game to talk with both coaches to let them know it was getting out of hand and cards were going to start being issued. Despite this, the physical play continued and only one yellow card ended up being assessed to Farmington for a cross check that ended up taking out one of our star players with a concussion. Ultimately, we had three girls that had to come out of the game – two of which are out with concussions now.”

Johnson led the Darts with three goals with Coleman adding a goal and an assist and Facer, Lifferth and Rose also scoring goals.

“This loss stings and was hard on the girls, but I hope that we can take the lessons learned during this game and rebound from it,” Hekking said. “We have to play more as a team and we’ll be focusing more on assisted goals moving forward.”

Davis is also scheduled to get right into Region 1 play with home-and-away games against Layton, Clearfield, Syracuse, Roy, Weber, Fremont and Farmington while also facing Skyridge May 6.

The Darts are now 1-2 this season.

Farmington

Senior Alexa Stephens and sophomore Hailey Larsen return to lead Farmington’s offense along with newcomer Alexandra MacAulay, a sophomore. Defensively, the Phoenix squad – under new Head Coach Chris MacAualay – will be anchored by sophomore Kate Carter, freshman Molli Bell, seniors London Tholl and Karly Stephens, Alexa’s twin, and sophomore goalie Elle Erickson.

“Our seniors [which also includes Maleha Ballard, Ryann Franich, Brookyln Hintze, Mikayla Jackson and Riley Sant] are a big part of our team,” said MacAualay. “We also have 16 sophomores between our varsity and JV squads and that will be important for continued development within our program.”

MacAualay, who is from northern Virginia, grew up playing lacrosse and, after his high school career, went on to play collegiately at Air Force. His military service brought him to Hill Air Force Base in 2018 and, upon retirement three years ago, he and his family – including his wife, who retired from the military in 2018 – enjoyed Utah so much that they decided to stick around.

Last year, his daughter Alexandra, who attends St. Joseph’s, played lacrosse for We-

ber High and associated with three FHS players through club lacrosse. MacAualay was made aware of the opening for a Farmington girls lacrosse coach and a conversation with his daughter ensued. “I made sure Alexandra was good with it if I coached her and I made it clear to her that she was probably going to have to work harder than most because I couldn’t show her any favoritism or have nepotism going on,” MacAualay said. “She’s

actually loved it.”

MacAualay loves the physicality, fastpaced and team-natured sport that lacrosse is as well as the life lessons you can learn by playing it.

“I hope these girls get a similar experience as I did from playing the game like having fun, dealing with loss and failure

Girls golf teams on course

Davis

Senior Abby Lewis and sophomore Lizzie Rhodes return for a young Davis High golf team and will be counted on heavily by new head coach Mikey Jerman for their leadership on the course this season.

Jerman is also expecting contributing play from senior Sophie Seeley and junior Chloe Cook for the young Darts squad. “I’ve also got a handful of others with a lot of potential that I can’t wait to see get out on the course,” Jerman said. “Everyone has a solid, athletic swing and a great attitude.”

Jerman, who is also currently the boys golf coach at Clearfield High, has been golfing since she was four years old. She stayed with the game through two years playing at North Idaho College and now as she is currently working on qualifying school for the Professional Golfers of America. She is also an assistant and junior golf instructor at Oakridge Country Club.

“Because of time, I only played about 10 rounds of golf last year. I don’t do a lot of practicing or playing,” she said. “The way I work on my own stuff and keep me on my game is with the little drills I do with my team.”

She was heavily involved in basketball and softball growing up and had a variety of coaches along the way. “I want to be the adult I had in my life as a coach,” Jerman said.

Jerman’s coaching philosophy focuses not only on the fundamentals of the game, but the mental aspect as well. “I want to help the girls keep their composure on the golf course and stay confidence in themselves,” she said. “I want them to constantly believe that the most important shot is the next one.”

Also on the DHS team this season are juniors Anna Harkness, Abigail Florence and Erika Haddon; sophomores Haley Merrill and Tressa Zaugg; and freshmen Aubree Tanner, Audrey Greenberg and Sarah Dastrup.

“I'm really excited to have the opportunity to build with these girls throughout their high school golf careers and to see what sort of tournament team we bring to matches this season,” Jerman said.“I’m excited to build and see what we can do here.”

The start of the Region 1 golf season has already been delayed with coaches and players hopeful that a March 22 date at Remuda will get things going. Other scheduled matches are at Davis Park March 23, The Bluff March 27, Glen Eagle March 30, Davis Park April 13, The Barn April 17 and Valley View April 20 with the region tournament slated for April 25 at Eagle Mountain.

Farmington

Senior Sydney Richards, who will be playing collegiate golf at Southern Virginia University next year, along with senior Maura Hawkes, who will also be playing at the next level, have been Farmington’s lowest scorers during their entire high school careers. They return with six other seniors to the Phoenix program this spring who are hoping to improve on two top-10 finishes the past two seasons.

“They are looking forward to getting to play and hopefully have an amazing, successful season to finish off their high school career,” said head coach Stephanie Belnap. “It has been such an incredible journey for these eight seniors. They have worked hard, played in some of the toughest conditions, and cheered each other on.”

Belnap will also look to Gretchen Davis, Eden Page, Tennessee Lawrence and Maddie Baugh to help complete and add depth in their lineup. “They have helped in the past and I know if they work hard and believe in themselves, they will have a lot of success,” Belnap said. “We also have a few youngsters that have joined the team that with some fine-tuning they will be really good for our team in the upcoming years!”

DavisDavis’

Brox Turley and Wil Parkinson, who reached the 6A quarterfinals in last year’s state tournament, return to headline the Darts squad this season.

Head Coach Lexi Turley, who is in her fifth year at Davis, said the focus of the offseason was mental training and helping a “young group learn to compete as a solid team.”

“We are now hoping for good weather so we can get some time on the court and see where we are at,” she said.

Also on the DHS team are Adrik Bowen, Cal Burke, Luke Cadwallader, Jeffrey Cook, Mitchell Cox, Cole Durham, Lucas Edgington, Scott Finlinson, Everett Halverson, Jonathan Martineau, Cohen Monsen, Jack Redd, Sam Whitaker, Corbin Wilko, Jacob Williams and Kaden Wright.

Turley is being assisted by Breezy Chisholm and Whitney Hekking on the coaching staff this season.

In its first match of the season against Ogden, Davis won 3-2 with Halverson winning at No. 3 singles and Turley/Finlinson and Williams/Durham taking the No. 1 and No. 2 doubles matches. “We were able to play until snow pushed us off the courts,” said Frey.

The Darts also defeated Clearfield 4-1 March 14, Fremont 4-1 March 16 and Northridge 5-0 March 17 and are further scheduled to face fellow Region 1 opponents Syracuse, Layton, Farmington, Weber, Clearfield, Northridge and Fremont in home-andaway matches this season.

and learning and growing from that, and taking responsibility for yourself,” he said. “Lacrosse is a great laboratory to learn some great life skills.”

He hopes to additionally help his players be successful on the field and advance further in the playoffs as the program continually builds and improves.

Also on the FHS squad are juniors Edi Bayles, Brooklyn Bement, Georgia Kearns and Ruby Roche; sophomores Lauren Enright and Clara Russon; and freshmen Lydia Judd and Kassie Moffat.

MacAulay is being assisted this season by Lula Moore and Grace Kuntzler.

In its first game this season against Syracuse March 14, the Phoenix team won 12-11 behind Alexa Stephens four goals and three from Ally MacAulay. Also contributing offensively were Larsen (two goals, one assist), Bayles (one goal) Jackson (one goal) and Sant (one goal) with Erickson recording seven saves in the win.

“The team is starting to come together,” MacAulay said.

Against Davis March 16, Farmington won 11-7 behind goals from MacAulay (three), Larsen (two), Roche (two), Sant (two), Jackson (one) and Moffatt (one) with Moffatt also recording an assist.

“The game went great,” MacAulay said. “Ally [MacAulay] had three goals, Hailey [Larsen] was dominant at the draw circle, and the player of the game was our goalie, Elle [Erickson], who had 13 saves and a sixty-five save percentage.”

The Phoenix squad is also scheduled to face Bountiful and Park City along with Region 1 opponents Roy, Weber, Clearfield, Fremont, Layton, Syracuse and Davis this season.

Bountiful

Third-year Head Coach Olivia Cope returns seniors Violet Holley, a midfielder, and defender Naomi Brice and junior attacker Megan Youngberg to a building program who finished in the top 15 in 5A last season.

Freshmen Layla Blanchard and Claire will also be looked to for contribution to the varsity squad and continued development.

The Redhawks team have been focusing on conditioning as well as stickwork fundamentals while also trying to add more players to their group.

“My goal each year is to have every player who doesn’t graduate come back and play next year so we can pick up where we left off,” Cope said.

Also on the BHS squad this season are seniors Riley Coats, Hannah Lyman, Chloe

mensely,” Sanders said. “Blake was a great left-handed game and will be a huge asset in our second doubles position.”

Sanders is focusing on player improvement, particularly among the younger players, on her team while also emphasizing chemistry among her doubles teams. “We’ll need to build the program to continue to have success,” she said.

Also on the FHS squad this season are Bronson Bowcut, Spencer Barlow, Ethan Moore, Bridger Rice, Cooper Rich, Charlie Jenks, Noah Larsen, Colton Miller, Josh Reaveley, Bennett Black, Will Mauss, Kyler McQuivey, Preston Hinckley, Talmage MacKay and Will Packer.

Viewmont

Senior midfielder Eliza Runolfson and her sister Gretel, who is a sophomore defender, along with senior midfielder Keely Banks bring experience back to a Vikings squad that welcomes in new Head Coach Lauren Pescetti this season.

Pescetti also noted the addition of freshman midfielder Cece Walton which will help Viewmont’s offense.

The new coach began playing lacrosse when she was 11 in New York, and literally never set the stick aside.

“Once I picked up the stick it was an immediate love for the sport,” she said.

After playing throughout middle school and high school, Pescetti went on to be an NJCAA First-Team All-American and a twotime First Team All-Region player at SUNY Herkimer College, finishing the 2010 season ranked ninth in the nation in scoring. She was drawn to coaching because of the tremendous influence her coaches had on her. “I also think that it is important to have strong female representation in our sports who have a passion for what they do.”

This past fall, Pescetti coached a club team who won 15 of their 17 games and it thrilled her to watch her players increase in confidence as they worked hard to develop in their lacrosse fundamentals and abilities.

“I’m excited for coming in this season at Viewmont,” she said. “We have girls playing that range from nine years of experience to this was their first time ever seeing a lacrosse field. I get the best of both worlds coaching here, seeing new players learn the game from the ground up and seeing my more advanced

Elder, Northridge, Viewmont, Olympus along with pro-set tournaments tournaments at Jordan High March 17, Provo High March 24 and Spanish Fork April 14-15. The JV Region 5 tournament is scheduled for April 26 at Box Elder with the varsity region championships being held April 26-27 at Box Elder.

Viewmont

Junior Nate Tullis and his brother, Mikey, a freshman, will handle the top two singles spots for Viewmont this season while junior twins Kyle and Curtis Robinson – who played No. 2 and No. 3 singles last year for the Vikings – team up as the top doubles team this year.

Head Coach Mark Burningham said senior Ashton Durrant will also figure into the mix in either the final singles slot or within the No. 2 doubles pairing. Senior Adam Horsely suffered an injury and will not be able to participate on the team in his final high school season.

“We’re deeper this year so we can really focus in on doubles,” Burningham said and noted that depth will be the key in competing with Woods Cross and Bountiful for the Region 5 title this season.

Also on the VHS team this season are Chase Burton, Jamison Cosper, Jack Evans, Kaden Hatch, Adam Jones, Jordan Jones, Landon Kearns, Josh Longmore, Ashton Murray, Kai Zierenberg and Tucker Zierenberg.

In the team’s first tournament at St. George March 10-11, the Vikings beat Pine View, Woods Cross and Farmington in group play, winning 14 or 15 singles and doubles matches. Nate Tullis won all three of his proset matches 8-0, 8-1, 8-1. “We were prepared to play in the championship brackets when the second round of rain finally halted all play and the tournament was discontinued,” Burningham said.

In a non-region match against Bountiful, Viewmont won 5-0. Nate Tullis defeated Zach Eyring 6-2, 7-5 at No. 1 singles; Mikey Tullis beat Pierce Moore 6-1, 6-0 at No. 2 singles; Durant defeated Simon Barlow 6-4, 6-1 at No. 3 singles; Kyle Robinson/Curtis Robinson beat Joe Stobbe/Thane Thompson 6-0, 6-3 at No. 1 doubles; and Kearns/Jones beat Covey Rue/Jason Ebert 6-3, 6-3 at No. 2 doubles.

The Vikings are also scheduled to

players get to tackle harder skills.”

Pescetti said an important aspect to her coaching is creating an environment that encourages development on and off the field.

“I always tell my players that I first care about them as young ladies becoming adults, then secondly as lacrosse players,” she said.

“I think that just instilling that accomplishing hard tasks takes hard work and dedication not only applies to lacrosse but to life overall. I want to see each player improve personally on their specific lacrosse skills no matter what level they fall under, to create a team that has friendships that will last years for the girls and to be able to pass on my knowledge to the next generation of potential coaches.”

Also on the VHS team this year are seniors Kali Jones, Rachel Lee and Alexis Silva; juniors Lauren Ames, Sarah Bell, Avery Drake, Haley Erekson, Brittley Gines, Lexi Lee, Paige Mair and Elsie Tomlinson; sophomores Riley Atwood, Caitlin Phelps, Emma Walker, Brienna Wallis and Olivia Zitzmann; and freshmen Maddie Gaskill and Monica Larsen.

Pescetti is being assisted by Tara Riley on the coaching staff this season.

So far this year, the Vikings defeated Layton 13-1 March 9 with Banks scoring six goals and Walton adding three. Other offense came from Tomlinson (two goals), Eliza Runolfson (one), Erekson (one) and Drake (one) while Pescetti noted that her player of the game was goalie Emma Walker.

“The girls surpassed all of my expectations for our season opener,” Pescetti said. “We were able to get every one of our players, first timers included, a great amount of playing time. The girls really showed me that we’re ready to move forward onto new aspects in our practices. I couldn’t have asked them for anything more.”

Against Roy March 10, Viewmont won 9-3 – in a lightning-delayed matchup –behind five goals from Walton and two each from Banks and Eliza Runolfson with an assist from Jones.

“It was a great game,” Pescetti said. “The girls showed up ready to work. Once it was safe to start the game, we played in a cold, windy downpour. My girls remained mentally and physical tough throughout the elements and delay and pulled out a great second win to the season.”

The Vikings also played Clearfield March 17 and lost 7-6. Viewmont was up 5-4 at the half but managed just one second-half goal.

“It was a tough loss,” Pescetti said.

Banks and Walton scored two goals each while Erekson and Runolfson added the two others.

Woods Cross

The Richards brothers – Caleb, who is a senior, and sophomore Jake – along with sophomore Ian Rummens return for a Woods Cross team this season that was third in 5A a year ago.

Their mother, Molly Richards, who has been the girls tennis coach for six years and assisted the boys program last season, will be heading up the program this spring.

“Caleb and Jake are actually flirting with the idea of playing first doubles together instead of singles,” she said.

Coach Richards will also look to juniors Andrew Harrison and Ryker Iverson for strong contributions on the varsity squad who is hoping to compete for the Region 5 title. “Viewmont and Bountiful both have very strong teams this year, so we will need to be tough, particularly in our doubles lineups, to be competitive,” she said.

Also on the WXHS squad this season are Josh Allen, Luke Akerlow, Matthew Baker, Mason Garff, Jack Longson, Aidan McMillan, Cole Menlove, Dan Olsen, Luke Perattini, Marker Petersen and Marcus Richards.

Coach Richards will be assisted by Rich Iverson on the coaching staff.

In its first tournament of the year – at St. George March 10-11 – Woods Cross defeated Pine View while losing to Farmington and Viewmont with rain shortening the tournament for the final day.

Against Olympus March 13, the Wildcats lost 3-2. Caleb Richards, at No. 1 singles, and the No. 1 doubles pairing of Harrison/Iverson won their matches in the team’s loss. In the No. 2 doubles showdown, Garff/Peterson lost an “epic heated battle,” according to Coach Richards, where the pair won the first set 6-4 before losing the next two sets in 7-6 tiebreakers.

The Wildcats are also scheduled to play Green Canyon, West, Ridgeline, Park City and Skyridge along with Region 5 play against Northridge, Bountiful, Bonneville, Viewmont and Box Elder. They will also compete in the Provo Invitational March 24 and the Utah Valley Ashton Invitational April 21-22. l

The Vikings are also scheduled to play Green Canyon and Logan before starting Region 5 play with home-and-away games against Bonneville, Northridge, Box Elder, Bountiful and Woods Cross.

Woods Cross

The defending Region 5 champions return captains Sadie Allred, Ella Mathews and Maggie Preece and Head Coach Sierra Harris expects their leadership to be key to the success of the team this season.

“Their leadership positive impacts the team and keeps them motivated,” Harris said, noting that the squad will also lean on the play of Skylar Midgley and Dani Brey on the field.

Harris was that conditioning was the focus in getting the Wildcats ready for the season. “We wanted to make sure our team is ready to run and move the ball without getting too tired,” she said.

Also on the WXHS team this year are JV captains Mersadie Carroll, Olivia Mathews and Ruby Sonntag along with Shelby Allen, Brooklyn Bradley, Sophia Burden, Brianna Coleman, Sophie Davis, Greta Enkrodt, Olivia Eyring, Lily Freebairn, Alexa Gardner, Mary Gilbert, Alyssa Graham, Julia Haberstroh, Ella Holland, Megan Madsen, Ashley Miller, Quinlan Nevin, Lucy Phillips, Emmy Richards, Riley Rupp, Eliza Sargent, Rachel Sims, Sofi Smith, Kate Squire, Katie Stewart, Ella Tyson, Becca Warner and Ada Wilson.

“I just want to see everyone grow as a unit. We’ve got a great group of girls this year,” Harris said. “I really want them to create an environment where everyone is welcome to make mistakes and learn from them. I’m really excited to see everyone succeed.”

Harris is being assisted by Gracie Preece on the coaching staff this season.

Woods Cross began the season March 14 with a 9-8 loss to Sky View. Preece scored three goals while Mathews had two and Allred, Coleman and Holland each added a goal.

Against East, the Wildcats earned its first win behind six goals and an assist from Matthews.

DavisDavislost to Fremont 9-8 March 14. The Darts closed an 8-4 gap from halftime but came up just short.

Eli Greenway led the Darts with two goals and three assists while Ben Roylance (two goals), Carson Smolka (two goals), Brek Jensen (one goal, one assist), Nick Johnson (one goal) and Emmett Rice (two assists) also contributed offensively.

“We started off really slow and Fremont did a good job of taking advantage of that and putting five goals on us in the first quarter,” said Head Coach Dillon Yocom. “The second half we played much better and the way we are capable, but we couldn’t get it finished on the offensive side to tie the game. We are creating great opportunities and now need to capitalize on those.”

Against Farmington March 16, Davis won 13-4.

“After learning from our two losses, we got back on track and played the way we are capable of playing,” Yocom said. “We were fast up and down the field in transition and the defense played extremely well, causing lots of turnovers. Hunter Keller was amazing in goal and we had a lot of contributors on offense.”

Roylance had four goals to lead the Darts, who are now 1-2 so far this season.

In the 13-4 loss against Davis March 16, Hepworth, Larsen, Milne and Kai Leavitt scored Farmington’s four goals.

The Phoenix team is now 1-2 on the year.

Bountiful lost to East 8-6 March 15. The Redhawks mounted a comeback after being down 6-1 but they fell short in the end.

Tate Terry put in three goals with Isaac Stout adding two and Horne one while Terry, Wyatt Farr, Adam Mabey and Carter Terry all recorded an assist.

“It was a tough loss,” said Head Coach Peter Jordan. “We had a hard time getting into a flow offensively.”

Against Park City March 17, Bountiful lost 15-4. The Redhawks were down 7-3 at the break and managed just one second-half goal.

and an assist. Ryland Hewitt and Nathan Horne added the other two goals in the loss.

Bountiful fell to 1-2 on the young season.

Viewmont

Viewmont faced new Head Coach Daniel Derrick’s alma mater West March 15. “Under my Vikings jacket, I was wearing my old West High lacrosse jersey. Once a Panther, always a Panther,” he said. “I wear it for good luck, and it happened to be lucky. It was a special moment for sure, especially being my first game as head coach.”

The Vikings beat West 24-0 March 15, adding 10 second-half goals to a 14-0 halftime score. Tyson Mauri scored eight goals to go with four assists with Samuel Terreros (four goals, three assists), Abe Salmon (three goals), Parley Shupe (two goals, one assist), Presley Guber (one goal, three assists), Tyler Mauri (one goal, one assist), Nathan Delgado (one goal), Mason Gerrard (one goal), Kai Horlacher (one goal), Braxton Siddoway (one goal) and Rykert Zeh (one goal) also helping offensively.

“West is in the process of rebuilding a team and culture, so it’s hard to know exactly where for us to improve on that game,” Derrick said. “They have a great coach Ashton Hanks [whose dad, Josh, was my coach 20 years ago].”

Against East March 17, Viewmont lost 11-5.

“East is very well coached,” Derrick said. “Mentally, for a teenager, it’s very difficult to play a very easy opponent and

watching these girls go from total beginnings to having confidence and turning into great players,” said head coach Kurt Bosen. “These girls really give 100 percent and it shows in the results on the course.”

The Redhawks, who have owned the region title for the past several seasons, will also be looking to junior Amelia Mower and freshman Cambria Ohlson to help continue their dominance in Region 5.

“Amelia is a hard-working kid who is in just her second year of playing golf, but you would never know it looking at her,” Bosen said. “Cambria’s older sister is Kylie [who graduated a year ago] so it’s great to have the talent from that family continue.”

Also on the BHS squad this season are seniors Molly Clapham, Lyndsey Gee, Jane Lewis and Holland Staker; juniors Rory Miller, Amelia Mower, Breea Patterson, Cambrie Wernli and Ava Woolley; and sophomores Katie Harper and Emily Viner.

Bosen is being assisted by Dave Harada on the coaching staff this year.

“We have a young team, but it’s a strong team with some depth this year,” Bosen said. “Last year, we were counting scores for our top four players regardless of how their rounds actually went. This year, we have some players that could challenge those scores in case someone has an offround.”

The scheduled Region 5 tournaments this season are at Riverside March 20, Schneiters Bluff March 23, Sun Hills March 27, Lakeside March 30, Eaglewood April 12 and Eagle Mountain April 17. The Region 5 championship will be held in late April while the 5A state tournament is scheduled for May 8-9 at Remuda Golf Course.

“We’re looking forward to the season and are excited about the solid team we have here,” Bosen said. “Now, we just need to quit praying for snow and start praying for some sun so we can get outside and play.”

turn around two days later and play a very good team. We started out slow which was expected. However, we could not climb out of the deficit and they out-played us through clean passing, minimal turnovers and good shots.”

Salmon led the Vikings with four goals with Guber scoring a goal and Tyson Mauri recording an assist. Viewmont is 1-1 after the first week of the season.

Woods Cross Woods Cross defeated Payson 7-3 March 15, adding four goals to a 3-2 halftime lead to get the win.

“It was a big win in our season opener,” said Head Coach Brett Rurka, crediting goalie Noah Lake for his strong play and midfielder Jack Wood for his leadership offensively.

“It was a tough battle between the teams in a low-scoring defensive battle,” said Rurka. “They played aggressive and I compliment their players and coaches. We tried to focus on controlling the tempo on offense and getting settled down on defense.”

Against Highland March 17, the Wildcats lost 7-6.

“We came back from three goals down to tie the game in the fourth quarter,” Rurka said. “However, after a late-game penalty on us, they scored the go-ahead goal. We had the ball and two shots in the last minute but they held onto the one-goal lead.” Woods Cross is 1-1 early in the year. l

Woods Cross

New head coach Brandon Pearson watched his daughter Kennedee play her freshman season last spring for the WXHS program which had just a handful of players, not enough to field a team.

“While Kennedee loves golf, she told me she didn’t want to be on a team if we can’t have a team,” Brandon Pearson said. “I was concerned about the state of the program that didn’t have a lot of interest and since I’m passionate about golf, I approached the administration and offered to help.”

This year, recruiting efforts and some new energy brought nearly 30 girls attended tryouts with Coach Pearson keeping 14 of those players.

“We have a few players that can score in the high 80s and low 90s with a few more with potential to get better quickly,” Brandon Pearson said. “Let’s build from here and see where we go. We want to make state as a team and, although we’re a young team and that’s probably a pretty lofty goal, it is attainable so we’ll work towards that.”

Coach Pearson has been playing golf much of his life, competing in junior tournaments and summer leagues before a four-year high school career at Bountiful and an opportunity to play in college that he declined. With family responsibilities – having six children in 10 years – taking center stage, golf took a back seat until Brandon Pearson’s wife encouraged him to do more than just play casual golf. So, with the “bug back in me,” he has been playing in tournaments and leaving more time for the sport which his children have also all embraced. “It’s much easier for me to be involved in something when my kids are, so I see this as something I’ll be doing for a long time,” he said.

Also on the VHS team this year are sophomores Lucy Cannon, Morgan Chowen, Bridgette Lowe, Callie Peterson, Claire Salmon and Ava Wright, and freshman Berklie Fox.

The Vikings will be coached by Nick O’Neal this season as they begin Region 5 play March 20 at Riverside.

Brandon Pearson has taught golf lessons to friends over the years and enjoys the process of helping others on their game. “I’ve coached soccer and some other sports so I understand the dynamic of a coach’s role,” he said. “Golf is different in that it’s more individualized and it is a challenge to make time for everyone and their various skill levels. But, I’m happy to bring my knowledge to help the girls build their individual confidence on and off the course.”

Also on the WXHS squad this season are juniors Avree Clark, Brooke Francis, Brooklyn Greenwood and Emma Johnson; sophomores Gena Adams, Millie Fotheringham, Charli Judd, Bella Lakey, Katelyn Norman and Savannah Poll; and freshmen Emily Akerlow, Vivian Oaks and Sadie Wray. l

This is the best “John Wick” has ever been.

Though the series has had its ups and downs over the years, “John Wick 4” offers a master class in how a John Wick movie should be. The action is tightly choreographed and relentless in the best way, the series’ emotional themes are honored, and key story choices were both satisfying and vitally necessary. It’s impossible to make a better John Wick movie than this one.

For those who don’t remember 2019’s “John Wick 3,” our hero ended the movie shot by someone he thought was a friend and dumped over the side of a building. Though he was saved and given a place to heal, at the beginning of “John Wick 4” everyone in the assassin world wants him

dead. He no longer has any official ties, and the few friends he has left are being punished simply for knowing him. The Marquis wants to leave only scorched earth behind, and if Wick wants any peace he has exactly one chance to find it.

The movie doesn’t allow the audience a second to rest, with tension overlaying even quiet character moments. The action will make you wish you could pause and rewind the movie, just to catch all the little details of all the incredibly complex, sometimes huge fight scenes. If you’ve ever doubted that choreographers are artists, this movie will prove otherwise.

To add to the artistry, the movie also features Donnie Yen’s first entry into the series. He’s an emotional counterpoint to Wick in every way, and Yen brings every bit of humor and pathos the movie needs. He’s also an incredible fighter, and if you love action movies every moment he’s onscreen is a gift.

For John Wick fans, this whole movie is a gift as well.

Grade: Four stars

Shazam! Fury of the Gods (in theaters)

If you liked the original, you’ll like this one as well.

This sequel to 2019’s “Shazam!” is bigger than the original, with more ambition and higher stakes for our team of characters. Though the results can be a little more unfocused and less emotionally satisfying, there’s still enough sweetness and fun to keep fans happy. No matter what else is going on, the Shazam team are still some of the most entertaining characters in the DCEU.

The bad guys are a group of goddesses who claim the Shazam team stole their powers. Some of them just want to restart their world, but one sister wants to build

a new world on the ruins of ours. If the Shazam team wants to stay alive and save everyone, they’ll have to figure out how to truly be heroes.

Zachary Levi was good as Shazam, though the movie let him lean a little too heavily into the silliness at times. Asher Angel was great in the few moments he was allowed onscreen, but the movie really belongs to Jack Dylan Grazer as Freddy Freeman. He absolutely killed every scene he was in, and really highlighted the series’ theme that you don’t have to wear a suit and cape to be a real hero.

Grade: Three stars

Bountiful softball sweeps through St. George tournament; Davis, Woods Cross bring out the bats

By Catherine Garrett c.garrett@mycityjournals.com

Bountiful

In its first game of the year, Bountiful lost to Grantsville 8-1 March 14. The Redhawks were down 3-0 after three innings before they got on the board with a solo homerun from Ella Miller.

“No excuses because we played terrible, but Grantsville played six games last weekend and we haven’t even been able to get out on the field,” Head Coach Butch Latey said. “Hopefully this was a wake-up call.”

Pitcher Ellie Black struck out eight Cowboys batters in the loss.

Bountiful won all five of its games at the March Warm-Up Classic in St. George March 17-18.

Against Mountain Ridge, the Redhawks won 8-5, jumping out to a 3-0 lead before the Sentinels made a run. Three late runs helped ensure the win.

Eva Stoddard struck out six batters with Miller driving in two runs and Mylie Burnes, Frankie Galeana, Katelyn Rogers and Melissa Turpin also recorded an RBI.

Against Blackfoot, Idaho, Bountiful won 6-4, coming back from a 4-2 deficit after three innings before scoring four runs in the fourth to pull out the win.

Ella Miller was the winning pitcher with nine strikeouts while also bringing in a run and Stoddard (two RBIs), Jaci Alvey (one), Athena Tongaonevai (one) and Turpin (one) also provided offense.

Against Emery, the Redhawks won 103, scoring six runs in the final two innings to extend its lead.

Stoddard struck out 11 Spartans batters and helped herself at the plate with an RBI. Turpin went 4-for-4, driving in a run, with Claire Yates (three RBIs), Miller (two), Rogers (one) and Tongaonevai (one) also

contributing offensively.

Against Hillcrest, Idaho, Bountiful won 4-2. The Redhawks were down 2-1 until the bottom of the final inning when they scored three runs.

Miller was the winning pitcher with seven strikeouts while also belting two home solo homeruns. Yates and Isabeau Hoff also brought in a run in the win.

In its final game at the St. George tournament, Bountiful defeated Needles, California, 2-0, when Hoff and Alvey drove in runs to produce the game’s only scoring in the bottom of the third inning.

Stoddard struck out 10 batters in the shutout.

The Redhawks are now 5-1 this season.

Davis Davis defeated Woods Cross 26-3 March 14. The Darts scored 10 runs to start the game and added 15 more runs in the second inning in the big win.

“The girls played well,” said Head Coach Todd Street.

Hadlee Isaacs led the Darts with four RBIs while Sydney Marrelli (three RBIs), Laney Tuft (two RBIs), Serena Roth (two RBIs), Libby Miller (two RBIs), Jewel Korth (two RBIs), Jada Chilton (two RBIs), Ellie Black (two RBIs), Adelyn Turpin (one RBI), Rayleigh Starnes (one RBI) and Abby Hicks (one RBI) also added offense in the big win.

Black was the winning pitcher.

Davis’ games against Layton and Roy were cancelled because of unplayable fields.

The Darts are now 4-1 on the season.

Viewmont

Viewmont faced Mountain Crest March 17 and pulled out a 26-24 win.

“Holy cow, it was the longest game, taking us three hours and 51 minutes,” said Head Coach Bree Lopez. “It was a dog fight every inning, but the girls kept their fire, and we were able to close it.”

Woods Cross

In its first game of the season March 14, Woods Cross lost 26-3 to Davis. The Wildcats found themselves down 10-0 before even batting in the bottom of the first inning. Woods Cross brought in three runs by Mel Zarate, Natalie Wall and Aspen Lewis but couldn’t manage any more offense in the blowout loss.

“It was a tough game for us,” said Head Coach Casey Plowman. “We did answer back after they put up 10 on us and score three runs which was fun to see.”

Against Olympus March 17, the Wild-

cats lost 22-2 after being down 13-1 after the first inning.

“My assistant coach Madi’s brother coaches at Olympus so we just have a lot of history with them,” said Plowman. “We did not do well though. They came out wanting to swing.”

Woods Cross starts the season 0-2.

Farmington Farmington’s games against Morgan and Syracuse this week were cancelled because of unplayable fields. l

TELEVISION GUIDE

By Adam Thomlison TV Media

Q: Who plays Virginia in “Happy Gilmore”? I recognize her eyes.

A: Virginia Venit, the kind public relations head who takes unorthodox golfer Happy (Adam Sandler, “Murder Mystery 2,” 2023) under her wing in “Happy Gilmore” (1996), is played by Julie Bowen, an actress who would soon turn her eyes away from film and back to TV. And that’s probably how you know her. In particular, you likely know her from the

TELEVISION GUIDE

long-running sitcom “Modern Family,” in which she played stern but devoted mom Claire Dunphy for the show’s 11-season run from 2009 to 2020.

“Happy Gilmore” was her breakout role, coming after she hustled for years in oneoff guest parts on TV. She took a few more film roles immediately afterward (most notably 1997’s “An American Werewolf in Paris”), but she found her sitcom niche in 2000 when she began costarring on NBC’s “Ed.”

She joined another hit comedy series, “Boston Legal,” in 2005 for its second and third seasons, later making a brief reappearance during its fifth and final season in 2008.

While sitcoms have proven to be her strength, she’s always maintained a bigscreen sideline. As a “Happy Gilmore” fan, you may have also noticed her in 2020’s

“Hubie Halloween,” its spiritual sequel (if you’ll excuse the pun).

Q: Are they making more Expendables movies?

A: In the case of the Expendables franchise, that’s a big “they.” But I can say that “they” have at least one more installment locked and loaded, and at least a rough plan for more.

The premise of “The Expendables” (2010) and its sequels is simple: What if, instead of making a bunch of different action movies, someone tried to cram all the big action-movie stars and all the usual action-movie elements (wisecracking heroes, bad-guy drug runners, stuff blowing up in the jungle) into one movie?

So when I say “they” are making “The Expendables 4,” which is due out this fall,

I mean a long list of stars, including Jason Statham (“The Transporter,” 2002), “Dolph Lundgren” (“Universal Soldier,” 1992) and, most notably, Sylvester Stallone (“Rocky,” 1976).

It’s an ensemble cast, but Stallone is definitely the lead. He also directed the first film and co-wrote the first three, though he’s just credited as an actor in the fourth.

That waning level of involvement seems poised to continue. In a video he recorded himself on the final day of shooting “The Expendables 4,” Stallone said he plans to step even further away from the franchise to make room for Statham to become the star.

Celebrity Profile

By Dana Simpson TV Media

Easily recognized for his piercing blue eyes, strikingly high cheekbones and quirky sense of humor, actor James Marsden has made a serious career out of not taking himself too seriously. While many of his roles do fall into the drama genre, Marsden seems most at home when he gets to poke fun at himself and his characters. In Amazon Freevee’s new series “Jury Duty,” premiering Friday, April 7, Marsden gets to double down on his ability to self-deprecate, playing a fictionalized version of himself in a comical court setting. A mockumentarystyle sitcom, “Jury Duty” follows 12 jurors as they perform their mandated judicial duties. Little does main character Ronald Gladden (Evan Williams, “Awkward.”) know, however, that his 11 fellow jurors are all actors, the whole case is fake and “everything that happens is carefully planned” (per IMDb).

Born Sept. 18, 1973, to animal sciences and industry professor James Luther Marsden and nutritionist Kathleen Marsden (nee Scholz) in Stillwater, Oklahoma, James Marsden is one of five children. Growing up alongside his sisters, Jennifer and Elizabeth, and brothers, Jeff and Robert, Marsden attended Putnam City North High School in his teen years and went on to study broadcast journalism at Oklahoma State University, his father’s place of business.

Marsden’s first introduction into the world of acting came by surprise while he was vacationing with his family in Hawaii and met acting siblings Kirk Cameron (“Growing Pains”) and Candace Cameron Bure (“Full House”). After this chance encounter, Marsden returned to Oklahoma, performed in a university production of “Bye Bye Birdie” and soon decided to move to Los Angeles to pursue a career on screen.
