Coltharp jury trial set RAY LAFOLLETTE

The Pyramid

MANTI — During pre-trial conference held March 21, attorney for the defense, Paul R. Frischknecht reported that negotiations with defendant John Alvin Coltharp had broken down because Coltharp rejected a plea deal, so a trial by jury has been scheduled to begin July 9.

Coltharp has pleaded not guilty to all charges and the plea deal would have placed him in jail for at least 25 years. Sanpete County Attorney Kevin Daniels has said he will not settle for anything less than a 25-tolife sentence.

Months ago the children of Coltharp were rescued from a compound in southern Utah. They are currently living with their mother at an undisclosed location in Colorado while Coltharp awaits trial in Sixth District Court.

Coltharp is one of two persons accused of marrying each other’s oldest daughters and their own youngest daughters. Coltharp’s ex-wife had

been given custody of the children, but Coltharp disregarded the court order and kept his two sons and two daughters.

When Coltharp failed to turn the children over he was arrested and the Iron County compound the two men lived in was raided Dec. 4, 2017.

During the raid the two sons were found but the daughters were missing, which led to an Amber Alert being sent out. Later that night police found four girls hidden in 50-gallon plastic water barrels and an abandoned trailer. The children were treated for the effects of cold and symptoms of dehydration.

Two of the girls are daughters of Samuel Shaffer. He was also arrested and has faced charges which are similar to Colthorp’s, but Shaffer entered guilty pleas to child rape and child abuse.

Shaffer asked Fifth District Judge Matthew Bell to withdraw his guilty plea in a Feb. 27 letter because he was not mentally prepared to plead guilty.

However Judge Bell said that Shaffer knew what he was doing, ruled

Vidrio case continues RAY LAFOLLETTE

During a pre-trial conference held March 21, it was announced that John Alvin Coltharp had rejected a plea deal. He will now face trial by jury scheduled to begin July 9 in Sixth District Court on charges of child kidnapping, obstruction of justice-harbors or conceals a person, sodomy and child bigamy. against the change. Shaffer’s sentencing is scheduled May 8.

Samuel Shaffer is considered the original prophet of a fundamentalist Mormon offshoot group called Knights of the Crystal Blade. He and his friend John Coltharp are leaders of the small religious group.

Police documents report that they were preparing for a Muslim invasion of the United States and the end of the world.

Coltharp is facing charges of child kidnapping, obstruction of justice-harbors or conceals a person, sodomy and child bigamy.

WA students take third place at BYU business competition MT. PLEASANT — Each year Wasatch Academy students attend Brigham Young University’s (BYU) High School Business Language Competition (HBLSC) eager to apply their business and Spanish skills outside the school environment, develop presentation abilities, and use creativity–all while developing a business plan.

Enrique Roces and Lalo Martinez represented Wasatch Academy at this year’s competition under the supervision of economics teacher Beth Thompson and Spanish teacher Scott Butler.

Roces and Martinez presented their business plan and market strategy in Spanish to two separate panels of judges. Although the team was meant to be a trio, a last-minute conflict left Roces and Martinez revising their entire presentation the day of the competition on their way from Mt. Pleasant to Provo.

The last-minute change did not hinder Roces and Martinez from putting their best foot forward to

take the 3rd place prize. “It was very inspiring to watch them work hard for this competition,” stated Butler.

For the competition the students are given a product, generally from a recent start-up business, for which they must create a marketing strategy to position the product within the Hispanic community of Utah.

Students are given only three weeks to research the product, learn about the Utah Hispanic market, and develop a business plan to market the product effectively.

This year’s product was Thread Wallets, a slim, stylish alternative wallet created in 2014 by Colby Bauer.

Having coordinated this competition for the last three years, Thompson and Butler say students must possess the self-discipline to prepare for the competition on their own.

Having never competed in a competition of this caliber, 2017 competitor Christian Martinez commented,” I had to research and learn a ton about business. But it was totally worth it. That experience has been the most useful and real-world thing I did during all of my high school years.”

Thompson and Butler are looking forward to supporting many students in the future as they learn the world of business.

Butler states, “The best part of this is that when interviewing for colleges or future jobs, a student can share about their hours of research, what it is like to be a member of a team, and how they have presented a business plan, etc. All of this above and beyond the classroom done on their own time.”

The Little Miss Pageant was started eight years ago to help build the self-confidence of girls in Fairview and to help encourage them to try out for Miss Fairview when they were of age.

The pageant committee has watched several girls go from barely daring to peak their heads through the curtains, to achieving the opportunity of being members of royalties, on cheer teams, and so much more.

and wounded many others.

The toll of such tragedies ever since the year 2000 (according to the Deseret News 2-25-18), totals 149 killed and scores of others wounded.

Media sources continue to report that the urgent remedy to the slaughter of innocent children is gun control. This mantra is perpetuated through demonstrations and by other means.

First is the tragedy, then the demand for gun control. This has been an all too familiar pattern ever since the 1999 shoot-

ing at Columbine High School in Colorado.

No, the problem is not guns or the perpetuation of violence. The problem is the agenda of a secret and deeply entrenched cabal seeking to destroy our God given right to bear arms under the Constitution. Our sovereignty is heading for a meltdown. Planned for us is a dictatorship underneath the United Nations and a one-world government.

Today’s reality stems from brutal hardened conspirators, drunk with the poisonous drive

for power and gain. They care nothing about the suffering of human life. Such amoral groups have a history of destroying nations, including two great Christian civilizations on this hemisphere. (Book of Mormon: Ether, Chapter 8) Cries of our children, victims of this merciless conspiracy, must not go unheeded. Evidence is available, and wickedness will be unmasked as the light of truth shines upon this deadly evil.

Jane A. Braithwaite Manti

Samuel Goldwyn was a legendary producer in the movie business. He was born in 1879 — a year after my paternal grandfather. He died a year after my grandpa’s death. Both lived to be 94.

Goldwyn was born in Warsaw, Poland. In 1898, he sailed on a ship from England and got off in Nova Scotia, Canada because he was afraid that he’d be refused entry to the U.S. The next year he made his way to upstate New York and found work.

He became a naturalized citizen in 1902. (Perhaps it would have been easier for him to take a boat to Mexico and come in that way.) (Forget I said that. I don’t want to get into that topic.)

Goldwyn, of course, became very successful in the movie business. His “rags to riches” story is fascinating.

Samuel Goldwyn had something in common with baseball legend Yogi Berra. Both men are associated with saying non-intentional, humorous statements, which caused head scratching and smiles.

Many of you are familiar with Yogi Berra and his “off the wall” statements. I like to quote him. I think we all have favorite Yogi quotes.

“Why buy good luggage?

You only use it when you travel.” “Slump? I ain’t in no slump…I just ain’t hitting.” “Pair up in threes” “90 percent of this game is half mental.”

Samuel Goldwyn was famous for the same type of comments, which became known as “Goldwynisms.”

He probably had as many or more than Yogi. Here’s a few I especially like: 1) “I read part of it all the way through.”

2) “Color television! Bah, I won’t believe it until I see it in black and white.”

3) “Destroy the old files, but make copies first.”

4) “Why did you name him Sam? Every Tom, Dick and Harry is named Sam!” 5) “Our comedies are not to be laughed at.”

6) “For your information,

just answer me one question!”

7) “Tell them to stand closer apart.”

Now, after all of this introduction, I’d like to get to the point of this column. (Yes, believe it or not, there is a point.) The point involves a Goldwynisn that I’ve been thinking about lately.

You’ve most likely heard it and maybe even said it a few times. The quote is, “Gentlemen, include me out.”

That’s the position that many of us take when approached to get involved in service and community projects. It’s much easier to sit by and let the other guy do the work. We’d rather be “included out.” Someone else is always there to take care of what needs to be done, right?

Help is always needed in churches, community organizations, clubs, celebration committees, charities, volunteer fire departments, emergency medical technicians, youth sports leagues, and the list could go on and on.

Many of us feel like we can’t do anything because we’re so busy with our lives and families.

I’m reminded of a quote, which you’ll recognize. “I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.” (Edward Everett Hale).

Here’s another quote. I heard it in church a couple of weeks ago. It’s a Tanzanian proverb. “Little by little, a little becomes a lot.”

This concept applies to many things – including saving money and serving others. Small acts of service add up and can make a big difference in the lives of those around us.

So the challenge is to allow yourself to be included in doing that something that you can do. Don’t say “Include me out” to every opportunity that comes along which will improve the lives of others and most likely your own life in the process.

Pre-concert performance, a delightful custom at Fairview museum FAIRVIEW — The pre-concert performance by senior students from the Snow College Horne School of Music Program drew more than the usual crowd to the Fairview Museum of History and Art on March 22.

The performers exhibited amazing talents from pianists, operatic duets, and music composed for movie scores, to a playful country ballad played with guitar accompaniment.

Music majors must perform

their own musical creations before judges to earn their degree, and it has become a delightful custom for these talented musicians, vocalists, and composers to get the jitters out in front of local citizens, who enjoy the free concert.

The “Great Hall” of the museum’s Horizon building provided comfortable space for the performance and the backdrop of a huge Columbian Mammoth overseeing the event.

Ted Hinckley, Horne department head, praised his students and the willingness of Snow College to allow several concerts per year to be shared for the benefit of both students and citizens of the North Sanpete area.

During the performance Hinckley announced that he will be leaving Snow College and hopes the new dean will continue this valuable sharing of the arts.

An eager group of young women and friends from Mt. Peasant sit on the front row to get the up-close-and-personal privilege during the March 22 Senior Showcase held in the Fairview Museum of History and Art. The girls, some of whom came for the extra credit offered by many North Sanpete teachers, all enjoyed the fast-paced program. They are (left to right): Rachael Jones, Rebecca Jones, Kala Jessop, Cambria Nielsen, Daicee Nielsen, Lacey Hendrickson, and Tamra Anderson.

Nauvoo Temple block on display in Fairview FAIRVIEW — One of the original stone blocks carved by stonemasons and used in the building of the original Nauvoo LDS Temple in Nauvoo, IL; is on display in the Fairview Museum of History and Art, 84 North 100 East.

The stone block is just oneof-several which were discovered by Illinois landowner David Hardle. Hardle, who now lives in Milburn, relates that several of these blocks were excavated four-to-six miles from the Nauvoo LDS Temple site.

The temple was built around 1846 and then destroyed by mobs when the Mormon inhabitants were driven out of the city.

The blocks turned up under six or eight feet of plowed ground. Theories are that the great Mississippi River altered its course many times over the years, which has been documented by horrific storms and flooding events, and scattered many artifacts in that area.

One might ask why one of the blocks is in the Fairview Museum. To discover the answer, consider this, on display in the museum is a priceless collection of sculptures created

by Avard Fairbanks.

Lenore Frodsham, Salt Lake City, is the granddaughter of Avard Fairbanks. She has furnished an interesting connection between the Fairbanks family and this stone block which was so carefully cut.

Many years ago the Fairbanks family joined the LDS church

will be announced in May.) Auditions will be held in Manti on May 22, and call backs will be held May 23 and 24. The opening fireside will be Sunday, May 27, at 5 p.m., at the Manti Stake Center, 555 E. Union St. Practices will begin May 29. The 2018 pageant dates are June 14-16 and 19-23.

in Massachusetts. When construction of the Nauvoo LDS Temple began, Avard Fairbanks’ great-grandfather was a stonemason by trade. He was living in Nauvoo and working at the time the temple was built.

The Fairbanks family requested that the stone block be set among the Fairbanks sacred statues in the museum’s Heritage Building. Visitors can see and feel one of the incredible stones which was painstakingly cut so many years ago. It is definitely worth seeing.

Hawks stung by Wasps, tame Broncos BRAD BENTLEY

Pyramid Sports

MT. PLEASANT — Playing three games this past week, the North Sanpete Hawks dropped a 4-3 home tilt against the Juab Wasps, but then recovered nicely to score two wins against the San Juan Broncos in Blanding on Friday, giving the Hawks their first two region wins of what has been a successful season thus far.

Wasps Against Juab, senior second baseman, Tanner Madsen had two RBI, and a home run to lead North Sanpete. Keegan Eliason took the loss on the mound, coming in to replace Shawn Taylor in the top of the fifth inning. Tucker Memmot hit a home run and had two RBI for the Wasps.

Madsen’s dinger came in the bottom half of the first inning.

Juab’s pitcher, Rayden Steele, was throwing hard enough that any decent contact between ball and bat was going to result in a hit with lots of power behind it. Madsen had a 1-2 strike count against him, but the senior swung with confidence and watched as the ball was deposited over the centerfield fence for a solo shot.

Juab evened the score in the third inning, when Aagard reached on a walk and then moved to third on an error on the Hawk infield. A grounder to the right side of the infield gave the Wasps enough leeway to get the runner from third home.

The next Sanpete score came in the bottom of the fourth.

Madsen reached base thanks to a base on balls, and then moved to second on a Keegan Eliason single. After moving to third, Madsen was able to steal his way home to put the Hawks back up by one.

That lead was extended when North Sanpete was able to get a little two-out rally going in the bottom of the fifth.

Junior outfielder, Ashton Osborne walked his way to first, and then quickly stole second to get into scoring position.

Madsen got his second RBI by belting a single into right to make the score 3-1.

Juab came back to tie the score in the top of the sixth when Memmot launched a two-run homer to right field.

The Wasps then took the lead to stay when Reynolds singled and stole second, then scored on an error charged to the Sanpete shortstop. North Sanpete was unable to manufacture any more offense and the game ended with a stinging loss to the Wasps, 4-3.

Broncos After a couple of days of practice, North Sanpete took off for the southeast corner of the state, taking a five hour bus trip to play a Region 15 doubleheader against the San Juan Broncos in Blanding. Shawn Taylor hit a double and a triple to score two, and also pitched most of the game to get the victory.

Given two consecutive walks in the second inning, the Hawks took advantage and pushed both of those runs across the plate. The first

Ashton Osborne, took the first pitch that he saw and placed it into centerfield during one of the San Juan games. The speedy outfielder raced all the way to third for a big triple. run scored off a Zane Tibbs single, which moved Garret Christensen across the plate, and put Tyler Hadley in good position on third. The firstto-third hustle by Hadley put him in great scoring position. A passed ball that got away from the Bronco catcher allowed Hadley enough time to race across the plate and make the score 2-0.

North Sanpete put three more runs on the board in the fourth inning, all of them with two outs. Any coach will tell you that the third out is the

hardest one to get, and that was certainly the case here.

After a strikeout and a pop fly were recorded, the Hawks got to work.

Catcher Cesar Lemus started the fun off with a single past second, and then moved to third when Tibbs, who had two nice hits in the game, sent a double down the first baseline. A passed ball scored Lemus to make the score 3-0, and moved Tibbs over to third.

Two more walks loaded up the bases for the Hawks and then a two RBI double to left off the

bat of Taylor did some more damage to the floundering Broncos.

The home team was able to put one run on the board, but North Sanpete quickly erased the benefits of that when junior David Serba roped a triple into center and then came on in to score when Christensen executed a perfect sacrifice.

The game ended with that 6-1 score.

With a short intermission, the two teams again took to the field. This time the Hawks flew away with a 5-2 victory. Keegan

Eliason pitched most of this game to get the win, and also helped his cause by smacking a home run and getting three RBI in the win.

The Hawks started right off in the first inning. The first batter to the plate, centerfielder, Ashton Osborne, took the first pitch that he saw and placed it into centerfield. The speedy outfielder raced all the way to third for a big triple to start. A one-out single from Shawn Taylor brought Ashton home, and then Eliason’s home run made the score 3-0.

The jot was short-lived as San Juan came back with a triple and a couple of singles to tighten up the game at 3-2.

The score remained right there until Taylor got a twoout single in the fifth and then stole second. That move put Taylor in scoring position, and Eliason obliged by putting a single into center and was deep enough to allow the speedy senior to score.

An insurance run in the sixth came when Christensen hit a single and then moved to third on an error and a passed ball that loaded the bases. A single off the bat of Tanner Madsen was enough to score Christensen to put the score to its final 5-2 status.

The Hawks took spring break off and then go back to work on Tuesday against the Manti Templars, in Mt. Pleasant. The team will then face off against Gunnison at home on Wednesday, before once again facing Manti, this time in Manti, on Friday.

Lady Hawks claw Bulldogs, break Broncos BRAD BENTLEY

Pyramid Sports

BLANDING — The Lady Hawk softball team placed three more victories in the win column this past week, knocking off the Gunnison Valley Lady Bulldogs on Wednesday in a non-region tilt, and then went to Blanding in the southeast corner of the state and defeated the San Juan Broncos twice in a double header on Friday to keep atop the Region 15 standings.

Gunnison On March 21, North Sanpete traveled to Gunnison and defeated the host team, 8-3. Senior, Lexie Olson, went threefor-four, including a home run to garner four RBI to lead the way. Sophomore Nakiah Taylor stepped in the circle for the Lady Hawks and pitched all seven innings to get the win.

Taylor also brought in two RBI on two hits.

North Sanpete started out strong in the top of the first, pushing four runs across the plate. After Gunnison recorded an out on the opening batter, singles by Laney Gillins and Aubrey Ison put runners on first and third. Taylor recorded an RBI ground out that scored Gillins and moved Ison over to second, bringing Olson came to the plate. With a 1-0 count, the senior first baseman skipped a shot into left that brought Aubrey across the plate. Lexie moved to second on the throw home and then to third on a stolen base.

The hits kept coming as second baseman, Kelby Henry sent a fly ball single to right to bring in the third run of the inning. Henry promptly

Sawatch Range.

The four Wasatch Academy athletes, Lily Bowen, Teagan Ahlers, Charlie Clifford, and Grant Hopkins climbed up 800-feet vertical at 12,000 ft. elevation on the face of Monarch Mountain to the High Anxiety run to arrive at the start gate. Each athlete then picked the line they would take to qualify for finals.

Judges score the athletes based on which line they choose, the control the athlete demonstrates, air and style, fluidity, and technique.

Having never competed in any ski event, Bowen scored 14 points on her first ever run. Clifford scored 12.63 and showed great leadership both on and off the snow as the team captain.

Ahlers and Hopkins had successful first runs that qualified them for the finals. Ahlers’ first run scored her 27.77 points, and Hopkins scored 25.47 points.

The second day of the competition came with a new challenge, 60 mph winds. Ahlers and Hopkins stayed optimistic as they picked their line for finals.

Ahlers had a successful run.

However, a last-minute change in her line cost her valuable points. Ahlers finished the competition fifth with a total of 53.54 points.

Hopkins’ run started strong, but a missed landing caused an unexpected crash leaving Hopkins with a final score of 40.97 finishing in ninth place.

“Out of the 1,200 people that tried to be in this competition with only 120 athletes actually selected, I feel our team did very well,” says Chris Nester, Wasatch Academy Head Snow Sports Coach.

“They competed against kids that are way more seasoned in the sport and still outperformed most of them. I couldn’t be prouder.”

stole second and then came around to score when Brooke Price flied to center. The inning finally ended with nine batters having visited the batter’s box.

After putting Gunnison down without a run, the Lady Hawks again came to the plate.

With two outs in the second, Ison reached base on an error by the shortstop, and then moved to second when Taylor placed a single into left, bringing Olson to the plate.

The senior once again took a 1-0 pitch and this time there was no doubt about where this hit was going. Olson took the Bulldog pitch and parked it over the centerfield fence for a three-run dinger.

The Bulldogs were able to put a run on the board in the fifth, and two more in the sixth, but strong pitching by Nakiah and great defense in the field behind her left Gunnison with the loss.

Blanding In Blanding, the Lady Hawks took an early lead and put six runs on the board in the fifth inning to defeat the Lady Broncos in a mercy-rule shortened game. Kelby Henry and Graciee Christiansen each combined for three RBI, while Nakiah Taylor notched herself another victory, this time with an 11-1 score.

Addy Brotherson started

things off for North Sanpete, taking the first pitch she saw and parking it deep into left field. The speedy shortstop, who is second in all of 3A in doubles, this time stretched things out and went all the way to third for a triple before head coach, Landon Bailey, made her put the brakes on. Brotherson barely had time to catch her breath before the next batter, Gillins, laced a single to left for the first run of the game.

The Lady Broncos tied the score in the top of the first when their first baseman, Sui Sui, hit a triple of her own, and then was brought home on a single to tie the score, but that was the last time the Lady Hawks didn’t hold the lead.

In the bottom of the second, Price reached second on an error and then went to third when the catcher had to throw out Emma Bailey at first.

Christiansen notched her first RBI when she grounded out to short to score Price.

In the third, North Sanpete added two more runs to the board when Ison smacked a double to left center and then scored on a Taylor ground ball.

Olson then went all the way to third on an error and scored when Henry smacked a single into left. Another run was added on in the fourth when Christiansen hit one of her league-leading triples and then

was brought home on a wild pitch to make the score 5-1 for the Lady Hawks.

The flood gates opened up in the fifth, and instead of the runs trickling in, they flooded across the plate. Three singles, a double, walk and two errors was all that was needed to put North Sanpete up by 10 runs and mercifully bring the game to an end.

The second contest of the doubleheader also ended in five innings. This time the Hawks put seven runs on the board in the fourth inning to put San Juan away, and Lexie Olson pitched North Sanpete to the win.

Once again the Lady Hawks struck early and often, tormenting the Broncos with their ability to score. Brotherson again started things off quickly for North Sanpete, lining a double to left centerfield and then coming home off a Gillins ball that was put into play. An error put Laney on second and a pitch that clipped Ison but two runners on board.

Two sacrifices, one by Taylor and another by Olson, brought in the second run of the game, and then a single off the bat of Henry scored the third. The frame ended with North Sanpete holding a 3-0 lead.

Two more scored in the second inning. Christiansen reached first on a hit to the left

Graciee came home when Brotherson punched her second double of the game on a 1-0 pitch that went to the fence in left. Brotherson scored when Ison hit a double to put a 5-0 mark on the board.

With the Broncos still unable to score, the Lady Hawks went back to work at the plate.

Brotherson again got things going with her third hit of the game, a single to center. From there, the next two batters reached on errors that scored two runs, a double that pushed another across, and two singles. The two singles had Olson and Henry on the base paths, when Price stepped to the plate. The senior right fielder, took the first pitch that she

saw and promptly deposited it over the centerfield fence for a three-run shot to push the score to 12 -3.

North Sanpete needed just one more run to end the game, but that had to wait one more inning. Taylor reached base on her second double of the game. The sophomore, who was playing third in this game, then moved to third on a wild pitch and came home when Henry launched a sacrifice fly into center to score the needed run.

Taking a week off due to spring break, the second-ranked Lady Hawks will next play in Manti on Tuesday, April 3, and then will play their first home game of the year against those same Lady Templars on Friday, with the first pitch coming out at 3:30 p.m.

Track team shines in season opener 3-on-3 league BRAD BENTLEY

Pyramid Sports

CASTLE DALE — Both the boys and girls track team from North Sanpete competed in their first meet of the season last week, taking part in the Darrel Gardner Memorial Invitational at Emery High School.

There are a lot more competitors for the Hawks this year than there have been the past couple of years, and while many of them are very green, the larger numbers will certainly help the squads out as the year progresses.

The girls’ team is still small, but there are several runners who should consistently score points all year long. One of those is sophomore sprinter, Isabelle Hightower. The speedy runner took first place out of 51 runners with a time of 13.15 to earn 10 points for the Lady Hawks. Izzy’s time was more than a quarter second faster than her nearest competitors.

The next points came from junior middle distance runner, Linzy Flinders, in the 400 meter run. Flinders was a bit under the weather, and while she wasn’t happy about her time, still came in sixth place in the event and added three more points to the total.

The girls’ 4x100 relay also went quite well for North Sanpete. The team of two freshmen and two sophomores took fourth place and scored six points for the Lady Hawks. Izzy Hightower took the opening leg and handed off to Cambrie Roper who ran the second hundred. Hannah Snow ran the third leg of the race and then handed off to the anchor, Whitney Larson. The team fin-

ished the lap in 59.5 seconds.

The scoring for the Lady Hawks was finished up when the Medley Relay team took fourth place. Hightower again ran the opening leg, and this time handed off to freshman, Aspen Clayton. Clayton, who finished in eighth place in the 300 meter hurdles, carried the baton for 200 meters before handing off to Flinders who ran the 400. Freshman Kimberly Courtery ran the 800-meter leg and the team finished up with a 5:03 time.

Boys The boys track team became a track and field team, bolstered by some football players that were recruited to come and swell the ranks. This was their first event, but several still did quite well. Junior McCade Poulson took eighth place overall, scoring a point for the Hawks in the shot put, throwing for a distance of 11.68 meters which translates to 38 feet 4 inches.

Jamal Mayoul, who some may remember from basketball, showed his leaping ability in the long jump. The junior, who again has never competed in the event, took eighth place with a leap of 18 feet 9 inches.

That would have measured a lot farther than it did, except Mayoul fell backwards and his hands landed in the sand, a couple of feet behind him.

Parker Hightower is another of those runners who can be counted on to score points, and the senior sprinter took to the 100 meter dash and finished in second place with a time of 11.64 seconds. Karson Parish also scored in this race as the sophomore finished in a time

The boys also placed in

fourth place in the Spring Medley. Parker Hightower and Laramie Roberts each took the 200-meter legs, then Laramie handed off to his brother, Wyatt, who ran the 400 meters.

SALT LAKE CITY — With all of the talk about the Chinese space station I which is soon to reenter Earth’s airspace, interested viewers can use the services of http://www.heavens-above.com to see when the station will be passing over Utah.

According to Patrick Wiggins, NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador to Utah, the space station will be in Utah skies a lot between now and April 4. Sometimes high overhead when it’s nighttime in Utah meaning it should be pretty easy to see.

He says that if it does happen to reenter while in Utah skies it won’t make any difference if it’s night or day. In that case it’ll be bright and easy to see, and hear.

It has been confirmed that Chinese space station I has a failing orbit around the earth and will eventually plummet into airspace as it seeks to land somewhere. As it falls, it will be visible at times while passing over Utah.

But, all hype aside, Wiggins is not really concerned. It will be putting on quite a show somewhere and he will be surprised if it picks the Beehive State for its final bow.

According to a study by Portland State University, single-driver commuters were among the least happy in an assessment of commuter well-being. Factors taken into account were stress, boredom, congestion and travel time, among others. The happiest?

Worried about affording a bike? A bicycle costs $50-200 to maintain annually if ridden 2,000 annual miles, averaging .05 to .15 cents per mile, according to the Victoria Transport Policy Institute.

When driving a vehicle, however, drivers accrue operating costs (gas, maintenance and tires) of approximately 19.64 cents per mile, according to AAA. With an average total daily driving distance in the U.S. of 29 miles, or just over 50 minutes behind the wheel, this

This estimate doesn’t even include the cost of the vehicle itself or insurance.

Is the environment a top priority? According to the EPA, transportation accounts for 36 percent of the nation’s total greenhouse gas emissions, and the largest sector of that is passenger cars.

Transportation is the highest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the nation. Riding a bike as a form of transit directly decreases emissions and helps improve air quality.

Active transportation also adds more years to a person’s life than are lost from inhaled air pollution and traffic injuries.

Riding a bike is associated with increased life expectancy, cardiovascular fitness, strength, balance and flexibility, endurance and stamina, calories burned, cognition and energy.

Consider changing the daily mode of transportation. People have nothing to lose (except maybe weight!) and everything to gain, including health and happiness.

he believes that the format found in his book can be applied to any worthwhile pursuit, especially for creating an environment of peace and tranquility.

He explains, “The book itself is academic. It takes a deeper look at biblical creation, but in so doing, it presents a format people can use. The key is the application.”

“This is a useful application, one everyone can use. I want to ‘open the book’, that is why I am giving this presentation,” says Davis. “The book is based on the first few chapters of Genesis and it presents ideas and math concepts that bring it to life. These are things people can use right here, right now.”

It started out with an understanding of the nature of ‘oneness.’ Davis calls it his “Unified Systems Theory” and it relates to the first day of creation. He asserts that all things in the real world can be expressed as the constant C as found in Einstein’s E=mc2, and that relates directly to the first day of creation.

In “The Math of Creation” he expanded on that to all the days of creation in Genesis, detailing the “math” found in creation,

Terrel Davis is the author of a new book “The Creation Code.” asserting that what readers find in the bible is actually the creation of math and that they can use that math to create anything more effectively.

Finally, he discovered a likely historical context for what can be found in Genesis, that Moses transcribed from the temples of Egypt and that what can be found here is a format for creating effective government (the temples being a school for the royal family).

This idea is supported by the work of Pythagoras, the Greek who served as an Egyptian priest for 23 years and then went home to Greece to form his society of philosophers,

which was a training school for civic administrators.

So what people have now is ordinance (the way things are done). It is the way God created this universe, and how people can create… anything, even a Zion society.

It isn’t an LDS Church thing specifically, it isn’t even an evangelical Christian thing. It is a Holy Bible thing, and its application is universal. People can use creation to be a more effective teacher, salesman or boss.

People can use it to more effectively develop software, even produce and direct a movie.

The most powerful application seems to be a format for creating a social environment, a place of peace… on any level.

That is the goal of this presentation, to introduce this concept to the people of Sanpete County.
