FROM THE EDITOR In my circle of family and friends, there are a lot of March birthdays. Celebrations begin early and last through the month. Balloons have a permanent place at our parties, so this month entails a few stops at the store to pick up balloons. As I was maneuvering a bouquet of birthday balloons into my car a couple weeks ago, I was reminded of another time I had stuffed my vehicle with balloons.

Last spring, my friend Manette (former editor of Cache Magazine) and I had a mustache party. We played mustache games and had a photo booth with props. There was a black and white theme — all the food was black and white, everyone had to wear black and white. Black and white crepe paper was strung across the room and two dozen black and white balloons dotted the ceiling. Manette and I looked online and found must-have mustache party items — mustache cookie cutters, mustache paper clips, mustache pushpins and, most importantly, self-adhesive mustaches that everyone had to wear

unless, of course, they had real facial hair. Once we got over the stress of getting our supplies in order, all we had to do was bake, make the games and decorate. And I had to get those 24 pesky balloons into my car. I weighed them down with towels, books and my purse, and all 25 of us made it to the party. This week, Cache Magazine is featuring Keenan Price, who can shape balloons into flowers, rabbits, a rainbow with a pot of gold, a basketball hoop and more. Check it out on page 8. And, next week, Jeff will be back. — Arie Kirk

all mixed up Grammy Award winner to perform in Logan The Cache Valley Center for the Arts will present 10-time Grammy Award winner Bobby McFerrin at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 26, and Wednesday, March 27, at the Ellen Eccles Theatre in Logan. A matchless vocal improviser with a breathtaking vocal range, Bobby McFerrin comes to Cache Valley with his latest project, spirityouall, influenced by the spirituals his father — the great baritone opera singer Robert McFerrin Sr., the first African-American to sign a contract with the Metropolitan Opera Company — sang. Expect soulfulness, poignancy, beauty and joy. Tickets range from $30 to $44 and are available at the CVCA ticket office located at 43 S. Main St., online at www.CacheArts.org or by calling 435-752-0026. CVCA offers discounts for USU students, 50 percent off kids ages 5-18, and 15 percent of groups of 15 or more. No discounts will be available on day-of-show. “McFerrin’s four-octave vocal range is indescribable because it feels so spontaneous and vast,” said Wally

Bloss, executive director for the Cache Valley Center for the Arts. “A Bobby McFerrin performance is like watching a painter fill a blank canvas, it starts with a single note and transforms into an orchestra.

His real-time improvisational style is thoroughly aweinspiring and resistant to genre placement. It blends folk, jazz, pop, R&B, classical, and world music into a cross-cultural cross-breed concert.”

The project, spirityouall, features beloved familiar tunes like “He’s Got the Whole World In His Hands” and “Every Time I Feel The Spirit” alongside original songs which explore Bobby’s everyday search for grace, wisdom and freedom. The new material ranges from a celebratory hoedown to a polemic anthem, to a down and dirty blues setting. This project embraces Bobby’s folk, rock and blues influences

without abandoning his fearless improvisational approach or his never-ending exploration of the human voice. He moves seamlessly between lyrics and wordless lines, trading phrases with his band, inviting the audience to sing along. Bobby loves to sing this music, and it shows: spirityouall raises the roof with joyful grooves. Three of the traditional numbers featured on spirityouall — the opening track “Every Time I Feel the Spirit,” “Swing Low Sweet Chariot” and “Fix Me Jesus” — also appeared on the senior McFerrin’s 1957 album Deep River, but similarities end there. The spirituals are about liberation and courage, the human condition, the pioneering spirit, the search for strength in the face of adversity, and the journey toward a better place, and Bobby’s versions reach for new territory. More than 20 years after his hit song “Don’t Worry, Be Happy,” Bobby still regularly sells out nearly all of his performances.

Tonight’s organ concert features USU music alumnus Utah State University’s Department of Music is celebrating the second anniversary of the Campbell Holtkamp Organ rededication with a performance at 7:30 tonight in the Kent Concert Hall of the Chase Fine Arts Center on the Logan campus. “This performance is to honor the support of the Campbell family and its dedication to the program,” said Lynn Thomas, director of organ studies in the Caine College of the Arts. Each year around this time, the organ program will host a

commemorative performance to honor the family and award the Campbell Organ Prize to someone who has performed a significant service to those in the state of Utah who play the organ. This year’s award goes to Parley Belnap, emeritus professor of organ at Utah State University and Brigham Young University. “Most organists of significance from Utah likely studied under Parley Belnap,” said Thomas. “He was instrumental in getting the Campbell Holtkamp organ to Utah State when he taught here and was

also one of the first professors in the organ program with significant credentials and background.” This year’s performance will also feature guest artist Eric Gundersen, a music alumnus who is the music director at the St. James Episcopal Church in Conroe, Texas. Gundersen served as guest organist at the Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City while attending Utah State University, focusing on music training and organ studies. After graduating from USU, he went on to earn a master’s

degree from Yale University and a doctorate degree from Rice University. Gundersen has performed at St. Paul’s Cathedral and Westminster Abbey in London, St. Stephen’s Cathedral in Vienna, AusGundersen tria, and more throughout Europe and the United States. “I invited Eric to be the guest artist for this performance because he has gone

on to remarkable heights as an organist,” said Thomas. “Yale University is a top level school for church musicians, and earning a degree in music from Rice University is as prestigious as earning a degree in engineering from MIT.” The Campbell Organ performance is free and open to the public.

“Singin’ in the Rain,” the beloved American musical comedy about Hollywood, music, dance and romance, comes to The Old Barn Community Theatre in Collinston March 1 to 23. Handsome, dashing Don Lockwood was the brightest star in Hollywood. But would his career survive the new sound technology

that was changing the way movies were made? With amazing songs, razor-sharp comedy and sweet romance, The Old Barn Community Theatre’s production of “Singin’ in the Rain” transports audiences back to one of America’s great gilded ages — Hollywood at the end of the silent film era.

Based on the beloved 1952 MGM musical, “Singin’ in the Rain” is set in the roaring ’20s when movie stars like Don Lockwood and his glamorous co-star Lina Lamont were America’s royalty. On screen and off, they enjoyed lives of unimaginable fame and splendor. The film “Singin’ in the Rain” endures as America’s best movie musical (according to the American Film Institute) because, among other things, it tells a story of hope, resilience and the power of friendship and love to see us through tough times. It’s the ultimate feelgood show, accompanied by a hit “Teton Autumn Mood” by Gallery 12 artist Ruth parade of songs, including “Singin’ Stringam Nordstrom. in the Rain,” “Good Morning” and “Make ‘Em Laugh.” The last performances of “Singin’ in the Rain” will be at 7:30 p.m. March 22 and 23 at the Old Barn Community Theatre.

DreamWork Animation is always hit and miss, though their most recent movie, “Rise of the Guardians,” was probably their best yet in both style and substance. Yet, more often than not, they tend to stick to the silly side of things, content with animated features that focus more on obvious humor than telling a genuine story. This works to the degree that children are entertained, but movies like “Puss in Boots” and “Madagascar 3” might cause some boredom in parents. “The Croods” is that kind of movie; fun for the kids, slightly less so for the older people in the audience. The Croods are a family of cavemen, and cavewomen, that inhabit a prehistoric land that most certainly isn’t earth. It’s almost as if these are the prehistoric people that colonized Pandora, which would later be teeming with large blue creatures called Navi. I say this because there isn’t one animal present here that would fit into any evolutionary chain. There are turtles that fly

named Gran (voiced by Cloris Leachman). Similar to the last “Ice Age” movie, “The Croods” features a world tearing itself apart. The continents are splitting up and the family must move fast or face losing everything when the chasms appear. Along the way they meet an enigmatic human named Guy (voiced by Ryan Reynolds). Guy inexplicably knows how to create fire and understands that the land masses are going to be breaking up. Inevitably he and Eep are drawn to each other since “The Croods” follows every bit of standard formula it possibly can. Throw in a few plucky animal sidekicks for even more comic relief and

you have a movie that is geared specifically for children. This isn’t one of those animated films, like “Rise of the Guardians,” where adults will be able to find the same enjoyment as their kids. This is strictly elementarylevel humor, story structure and animation. Not that that’s necessarily a bad thing. It knows its audience and centers the entire movie on that demographic. Sadly, it’s a fairly one-dimensional story that follows all the same clichés that you’ve seen in many other forgettable CG animated features. It’ll make the kids happy, but that’s about it.

‘The Croods’ follows all the same clichés

balloon art Inflatable creations have become a business for Keenan Price By Wade Denniston

ll Keenan Price wanted to do was get a girl’s attention. So, he decided to give balloon animals a try. “Before I went on my (LDS Church) mission I was trying to do something to impress a girl,” Price said. “Balloon animals were part of this week-long elaborate scheme to do it, so I just learned to make a poodle and I thought, ‘Hey, that was fun.’ “I still had a ginormous bag of balloons and learned to make some other stuff. I was good at it and really enjoyed it, so I bought more balloons and started doing it more.” Price hasn’t stopped since. In fact, he recently established a business, Utah Balloon Guru, LLC. “I’m trying to get into the Gateway down in Salt Lake City and different conventions,” Price

said. “I’ve been doing parties for a little while and I like doing it on the street. I walk around with a bag of balloons making balloons for people on the street and that’s been pretty fun for me.” The senior at Utah State University — he is majoring in communication studies — also shares his talent with patrons at local parks. In fact, that is how he met his current girlfriend, Janette Velez, last September. “She was just in the park with her family and they were having a big barbecue,” Price said. “I was walking around doing balloon animals for everyone and I ran into her and her family. “It was pretty cool.” What did Price make for Velez? “A flower,” he said. Although he watched a few tutorials on YouTube, Price pret-

ty much taught himself how to make balloon animals. “I only watched about three or four videos on YouTube before I could pick it up,” Price said. “I learned to do the dog, which is about the easiest thing.” Then he learned how to do a rabbit, which wasn’t so easy. “The particular one I learned was really difficult and used a lot of twists,” he said. “From there, I just figured, ‘OK, if you do this with a balloon, it looks like a nose or an ear, or whatever.’” Price makes more than just animals these days. He’s made a basketball player with a hoop, Batman and a rainbow with a pot of gold at the end of it. Even on his mission — he served in New Mexico from 2009-2011 — Price made a name for himself making balloon animals.

“I actually did balloon animals throughout my mission as a way to proselyte,” Price said. “I served in a town of 1,200 people and was there for seven months. About 75 percent of the town, I knew them by their first name. They had a post office there and nobody had mail boxes, so everyone had to go to the post office. “I started asking the postmaster if I could put balloon sculptures in the post office and she let me. People would go in and see it and would be like, ‘Oh, that’s really cool. Who made it?’ She’d say, ‘It’s the Mormon boys that walk around town all the time. We’d be knocking on doors or walking down the street and people would pull over and be like, ‘Hey, I really respect what you do. That’s really neat.’” What’s the best part about Price’s unique trade? “Interacting with people and

the second probably being able to use my creativity,” he said. “I’ve always enjoyed having an idea and being able to put it together and see it come to life. That’s been one fun thing. “When I sat down to do my Batman, I just had an idea that I was going to make a Batman. I looked at a picture of a Batman comic online and was like, ‘All right, I think I’ve got this.’” Seven hours later, he did. “I made the Batman with the intention of spreading the word about me and it worked,” said Price, who noted each creation only lasts about three days until it starts to shrink. “I got about four or five parties as a direct result of that Batman.” For more information on Price and his balloon creations, check out his company’s website, balloonsutah.com, or his Facebook page, Utah Balloon Guru.

INTRODUCING

FASTER. BETTER. LOCAL. An all new way to search for local cars.

Art museum event tonight The Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art (NEHMA) at Utah State University is hosting “Warm Music for a Cold Night,” a special event to thank VIP members and to welcome new members to the museum, at 5 p.m. today. “Membership is a great way to support new and interesting exhibits in northern Utah and this event is our way at the museum to say ‘thank you’ to our generous supporters,” said Deb Banerjee, interim deputy director of NEHMA. The event features the Fry Street Quartet, USU’s resident string group and faculty in the Caine College of the Arts, performing selections of Joseph Haydn, Benjamin Britten and Maurice Ravel. The musical program complements the current show Lux, an exhibit exploring how artists use light as a medium or subject matter in their work. “The museum has a long history of the Fry Street Quartet playing works related to the collection on display,” said Nadra Haffar, education curator of

the museum. “We are excited for them to join us for this special occasion.” This special event is also an opportunity for the museum to welcome new members and provide a break to all from the long, cold winter, event organizers said. Membership to the museum provides patrons free admission to members’ events, previews of exhibit openings, after hours’ access to the museum during VIP hours and access to visiting lecturers and artists. Those interested in becoming members of the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art can call Haffar at 435797-0165 or email her, nadra.haffar@ usu.edu. “Warm Music for a Cold Night” is at the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art, located in the Chase Fine Arts Center on USU’s campus. Refreshments will be served during the viewing hour from 5 to 6 p.m. and the Fry Street Quartet will perform from 6 p.m.

An earned spring is so much sweeter than a spring entitlement. I know I am sounding uncharacteristically Republican, but with some of their Jedi philosophies agree I do. Few can refute that we really earned it this year as our weather fell off the meteorological cliff. I counted 35 days straight where my belief in the existence of the Wellsville Mountains was faith based. Frosty the snow man may be a puddle, but I don’t kid myself that just because the calendar flipped to March 21 that spring is really here. Springtime is more a

Slightly Off Center DENNIS HINKAMP

Page 12 - The Herald Journal, Logan, Utah, Friday, March 22, 2013

In Cache Valley, spring is more of a state of mind

state of mind in northern Utah. What we really get is about 30 days of reliable spring commingled with 60 days of fickle Swinter. Swinter is the time when just the lower end of 50-something degrees gets people out half-naked, run-

ning, rowing and riding around the valley. These temperatures at the end of summer (Sumautom?), would have the same people reaching for a sweater. During Swinter water and snow skiing cohabitate in our H2O imaginations. In Swinter you can’t put away the snow shovel, yet you had better waken the grumpy lawn mower from its hibernation. You can’t plant tomatoes with confidence, yet the weeds are growing like weeds. You can’t park your car on the street overnight even though the city has decommissioned its snowplows for the season. You wear

a sweater on the way to work but just sweat on the way home. The swimming pools are preparing to open, but elsewhere, people still might be ice fishing in alpine lakes. Swinter brings things that lurked below winter’s white blanket slowly to life. Not all are pretty. Five months of frozen dog logs are emerging like stinky little zombies from their snow-covered graves. Your friends are also emerging, magnetically drawn to the farmers’ market that opens three months before anything actually grown on a farm is ready for harvest.

Tangled hoses replace tangled Christmas lights and extension cords. Road-repair crews also pop up through the Swinter snow like orange-vested volunteer tulips. Just when you were looking forward to black ice-free cruisecontrolled driving, four lanes narrow to one construction-free lane until late October when the cycle repeats itself. Spring has snuck up on me again. The emerging days of warmth and gusty winds make me want to run and bike and soak up sun, but I have to rake and prune and stack dead branches on the curb to hit that one-

week window where the town picks up the stuff. All the Oscar-winning movies are coming out on DVD, but I feel the need to spend more time outside and less time on the couch hibernating with technology. So I join my fellow winter-weary citizens debating which winter is worse and discussing where we might retire. We compare home repair stories and whine about the weather that will repeat itself next year, but we’ll forget the pattern again. Dennis Hinkamp says spring is still a pleasant surprise even after 32 years here.

2012 Arrington writing awards presented at USU The Leonard J. Arrington Writing Awards are given each year in conjunction with a student writing competition that is part of the annual Leonard J. Arrington Mormon History Lecture. The contest is coordinated by Utah State University’s Special Collections and Archives, and is open to all college students in Utah and surrounding areas. Entrants are required to attend the lecture then write a 2,500-word essay related to the lecture, including a one-page synopsis of the lecture and a bibliography. A minimum of two outside research sources must also be used. The essay topic relates to the lecture topic, which changes every year, but may be expository, persuasive or reflective, but not fiction. The essays are judged by a panel of five judges, including both campus

and off campus experts. The 2012 essays were based on the lecture given in fall 2012 by Terryl L. Givens. Students who submitted essays in the competition based their work on Given’s lecture “The Prophecy of Enoch as Restoration Blueprint.” Benjamin Harmon, an undergraduate at Utah State University, took the $1,000 first place award. The title of his winning essay is “What Has Athens to do with Mormonism?” Harmon is an Honors student at USU pursuing a double major in philosophy and religious studies with a minor in political science. His main research interests are in philosophy of religion, philosophy of mind and the history of Christianity. He also serves as an associate editor for the Intermountain West Journal of Religious Studies. The second place $500
