FROM THE EDITOR

W

hile typing up the contents listing to the left, I had to refrain from putting an exclamation point after the Baby Animal Days event. Holding bunnies, chicks, turtles and ducks easily makes me happy. I also like petting the baby pigs and goats and seeing the little bears the American West Heritage Center brings in from Bear World. Even though the whole scene is a little zoo-like, with a billion kids running around while they grab for tiny animals,

the event definitely makes for a fun day in Cache Valley, and a great way to celebrate spring. Speaking of spring, I’m happy it’s here, and not just because the calendar says so. Many “springs” in the valley often feel like winter. But this year, we’ve already had several bike-riding, trail-walking, ultimate Frisbee-on-theQuad kind of days. And while it won’t be a huge surprise if snow arrives a couple more times, it’s nice knowing we’re not trudging in multiple feet of it. Just last week I went to First Dam to see the ducks swimming around, and a few days ago it was a perfect day for the park. I know locals are already spend-

ing Friday nights cooking hot dogs and marshmallows over campfires, and others have been hiking to the Wind Caves. In this week’s Cache, there are a couple more spring reminders. On page 12, you can read the details of the annual Easter cantata that’s coming up, and the feature story on artisan Sabrina Wallace may remind you of all the critters that are sure to make their appearance soon if they haven’t already. Wallace makes adorable animals and creatures out of clay that can be displayed in the yard and home. There are bumblebees, ladybugs and snails, and all of them seem to be saying, “Happy spring.” — Manette Newbold


The show that revolutionized musical theater is coming to the Ellen Eccles Theatre in Logan for two performances on April 3 and 4. Limited seating is available by visiting www.ellenecclestheatre.org or by calling the CVCA ticket office at 435-752-0026. Produced by Cats-Eye, LLC, the national tour of “Cats” is the only production in North America sanctioned by Andrew Lloyd Webber. With original direction by Trevor Nunn and choreography by Gillian Lynne, this is the “Cats” credited with the British invasion of Broadway. “Cats” celebrated its 30th anniversary May 11, 2011, holding its place as the longest continuously touring Broadway musical in history. New for the 2011-12 season will be the reintroduction of “psychic twins” Coricopat and Tantomile. These mystical cats, who are always in sync, were last seen in the Broadway production. On May 11, 1981, “Cats” opened at the New London Theatre in the West End. Eight years later, it celebrated its first important milestone: after 3,358 performances, “Cats” became the longest running musical in the history of British theatre. “Cats” played its final performance on its 21st birthday, May

PET OF THE WEEK Available for adoption 11, 2002. “Cats” opened on Broadway on Oct. 7, 1982, at the Winter Garden Theatre in New York City and on June 19, 1997, it became the longest running musical on Broadway.

Based on T.S. Eliot’s “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats,” and with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, “Cats” won seven 1983 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical, Best Lighting and Best Costumes.

Films to be screened at USU museum Saturday Utah State University’s Museum of Anthropology steps away from its normal venue to offer visitors a chance to view two critically acclaimed films about stealing culture. The films will be screened as part of the museum’s “Saturdays at the Museum” series on March 31 in USU’s Old Main, Room 115. The films, based on real stories from the early 20th century, document the brutality of intellectual barbarianism and the enduring resistance it creates in the hearts of the victimized, the museum’s event organizers said. “Rabbit Proof Fence” (2002), the story of an Aboriginal girl who struggles to return to her family, will be shown at 11 a.m., followed at 1 p.m. by John Frankenheimer’s “The Train” (1964),

WHAT: “Rabbit Proof Fence” and “The Train” When: Saturday, March 31, at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Where: Old Main, Room 115

which highlights the theft of priceless art by German soldiers. Michael Marino, who received his bachelor’s in film and media studies from the University of California, Santa Barbara and is currently an MFA student at Antioch University in Los Angeles, will introduce each film and lead a critical discussion of the works. Popcorn and refreshments will be served during intermission.

“We often take our culture, our traditions, and our way of life for granted,” said Museum of Anthropology curator Elizabeth Sutton. “It’s only when we are threatened with their loss that we understand their importance and their value and go to extraordinary lengths to protect them. “These films, based on true stories, document amazing actions real people have taken when outside forces have stolen their culture.” For more information about museum events, call museum staff at 435797-7545 or visit the museum website (anthromuseum.usu.edu). The Museum of Anthropology is part of the anthropology program at USU in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences.

Pet: Bonnie Bells From: Cache Humane Society Why she’s so lovable: Bon-

nie Bells is adorable. She is very petite, but her heart is huge. If she sits on your lap, good luck getting her to stop loving on you. Bonnie is very cautious of strangers and loud noises so she would not do well with toddler-age children. Bonnie is also deathly afraid of water, so do not attempt to bathe her. She is already spayed and her short fur should be easy to groom.

Yellowstone Supervolcano topic for Science Unwrapped

Meegan M. Reid/Herald Journal

It’s that fuzzy time of year

Come bring in the spring with Baby Animal Days at the American West Heritage Center on April 5-7 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. Enjoy holding cuddly baby farm animals and join in on the candy cannons, living history activities, wagon/ train rides, pony rides and trout fishing. The center is also welcoming back the baby bears from Bear World. The festival is $8 for adults and $6 for kids ages 3 to 11. Receive $1 off when you donate a can of food for the Cache Valley Food Bank.

The Yellowstone Supervolcano: It’s huge, it’s powerful, it’s mysterious and it’s right under our feet. Should we be worried? "Yes, the Yellowstone region is active and has the potential to cause widespread destruction,” says Jamie Farrell, geophysicist and doctoral candidate with the University of Utah’s Seismology and Active Tectonics Research Group. “But Hollywood's depiction and the reality of what could happen are quite different. We need to sort through what we know and what we don't know and how scientists are finding this information." Farrell, a 2001 Utah State University graduate, is the

featured speaker for USU’s Science Unwrapped program Friday, March 30, on campus. He will present “Yellowstone Supervolcano: Myths and Realities” at 7 p.m. in the Emert Auditorium, Room 130, of the Eccles Science Learning Center. Hosted by USU’s College of Science, the free event is open to inquiring minds of all ages. Hands-on learning activities and refreshments follow Farrell’s talk. Guests are invited to bring their rocks and fossils for identification by USU geologists. The March 30 event is a continuation of Science Unwrapped’s spring 2012 series, “End of the World as

We Know It: The Science Behind Apocalypses.” “Throughout history and today, humans have been fascinated by impending disasters and the threat of apocalyptic scenarios,” says Shane Larson, Science Unwrapped committee chair and assistant professor in USU’s Physics Department. “For our spring series, we’ve assembled an exciting slate of speakers to help us explore this topic from diverse disciplines and points of view.” For more information, call 435-797-3517, visit the www.usu.edu/science/ unwrapped, or view the Science Unwrapped at USU page on Facebook.

movies Fans should be satisfied with director Gary Ross’ adaptation of the first of Suzanne Collins’ best-selling trio of novels about Katniss Everdeen, the independent, 16-year-old heroine fighting for survival in a futuristic, fascist society. The script adheres rather closely to Collins’ book — no surprise there since she co-wrote it with Ross and Billy Ray — although it does truncate some of the subplots that provide its greatest emotional heft as well as soften the brutal violence of the games themselves, ostensibly in the name of securing a PG-13 rating. Still, the makers of “The Hunger Games” have managed the difficult feat of crafting a film that feels both epic and intimate at once. And Jennifer Lawrence is an ideal choice to play Katniss. She has a startling screen presence with her natural beauty, instincts and maturity beyond her years, yet there’s a youthful energy and even a vulnerability that make her

As we learned in the first “Titans” movie, the Gods are fueled by the prayers of man. Once men stop praying to the Gods, they become weaker. They begin to lose their influence and their power. They begin to become – gasp – mortal! In case we forgot the whole Prayers Give Gods Their Powers Rule, it’s helpfully repeated time and time again during the movie to keep us informed. In fact, the entire movie is one giant plot reading. Characters here are not in the business of discussing any amount of dialogue unless it expressly reveals some sort of plot forwarding. Like the first movie, this one is a victim of exposition. Characters are relegated to explaining copious amounts of backstory, and after they’re done with that, they must explain what has to happen in the future. When they’re not explaining the plot, which is full of god-like weapons, mysterious characters, and billowing monsters, they’re fighting. “Wrath of the Titans” and all the people who populate it, even the great Liam Neeson (Zeus) and Ralph Fiennes (Hades), are simply an excuse for action scenes. There are some great actors here, but they’re relegated to espousing plot details and beating up other people or monsters, that’s it. The demi-god Perseus (Sam Worthington), son of Zeus, is back. Even after defeating the Kracken in the first movie, he’s decid-

‘Titans’ all about action, not character

f Sabrina Wallace had a quarter every time someone told her that her clay creations were cute, she’d be a millionaire. But for now, she’ll keep making the clay cuties for a modest income thanks to a talent that has turned into a growing home business and lifelong passion. Wallace’s Clay Cuties shop on Etsy.com features custom-made clay ornaments, kitchen magnets, garden decor and personalized baby animals. Popular this time of year are her colorful Easter chicks and bunnies, each bursting with vibrant colors and shapes. The 28-year-old Montreal native grew up sculpting the freshly-made clay her mother made in their French-Canadian home. “Ever since I was young I remember my mom making fresh playdough on the stovetop,” said Wallace, who now lives in Mt. Sterling. “That was the fondest memory I have from childhood.” Her mom added a dash of food coloring and when the putty was ready, she recalled, her brother often ate it, but Wallace went right to work crafting figures of all kinds. “My dad would teach me to make snakes and I always thought they were so ugly,” she said. At age 12, Wallace started selling her fare at craft and art shows around her hometown in Quebec. Using the tricks she learned from cartooning classes she took as a child, the pendant idea evolved and Wallace was soon building a variety of small characters. In high school Wallace began working with polymer clay and learned to build small pigs and cows with rounded balls of clay and more intricate pieces. Soon she put them on pendants and sold them to classmates for a dollar. “Pretty soon people were wearing my necklaces around school,” she said, remembering her first taste of self-employment. “That’s when I realized I could make

money doing this. I eventually stopped asking my parents for spending money.” Around Christmastime, the Clay Cuties shop bustles with orders for personalized ornaments featuring snowmen and women bundled in matching scarves and rosy cheeks. The penguin ornaments are also a big hit. Her African collection includes an orange lion and small elephant with exaggerated ears and eyes. “I’ve always enjoyed art,” she said. “Whether it’s cartooning, or painting or sculpting. Anything I can do and have fun with my hands, and make a business out of, is great.” Santa Clauses, reindeer, gingerbread cookies and more are available on Wallace’s Etsy shop — each available for custom order. Wallace also makes unique wedding cake toppers from the clay she bakes in her own oven. A recent hit was one she designed for a couple who are both Loch Ness Monster buffs. The topper was made of two Portrait by Eli Lucero/Herald Journal Nessies dressed up as bride and groom and arranged in their classic pose — the tip of their backs and long necks emerging from the depths below. Her garden collection includes smiling ladybugs and bumblebees that can be mounted to a stake and planted among flowers or vegetables. “I’m more than willing to do custom work for people,” says Wallace. “People can choose the message and colors or whatever they want. And I pride myself in people being happy with the work.” Wallace sells locally at the Cache Valley Gardeners Market and Novemberfest. Her Etsy shop is called Clay Cuties by Sabrina.

Your Stuff “Wonderous Sunlight” By Elise Idso The sunlight topples down the clouds and into the morning air. Nature seems sweeter, the burdens seem lighter, and the trees seem a little more fair. The old picket fence looks more white, when a sparrow’s youngling takes first flight. I am happy, because I am free from all the world’s sorrow and hate. Evil has no future nor fate. It’s true, evil has no future nor fate.

A rose stretches her leaves to the skies, while tempted man deceives with his lies. The rose smiles, contentment she will keep, while tempted man reviles, soon he will weep. So keep your head high and stifle your sadness. Look up to the sky and be filled with gladness. There’s joy in this world, love will find a way to creep in your heart, And there it will stay.

“Old Tin Can” By Garrett Snow There’s been a tradition at our place, just something small It will usually start in late spring and end sometime in the fall It isn’t football, baseball, swimming, or barbecues It doesn’t require a pair of cleats, or paying any dues This is a tradition for us, ya see ... Just my dad, my brother, and me As we go for our warm, summer rides We usually end up picking a few flowers on the mountain side And stick them in stream water, in a can of tin

to give to my mother, so she can see where we’ve been She usually gets teary-eyed and grins from ear to ear Which is why we have that tradition, year after year And as I look for a certain someone who’ll stand by my side It’ll have to be someone who’ll enjoy a mountain ride I’ll do what I can to try and be what she wants in a man And I hope she’ll appreciate wild mountain flowers in an old tin can

“Solo-so Low” By Sam Peery Hiking the ridge, mid-winter morn The blue sky is cloudless; this is nature reborn. Ascending the foothill A “whump” I had felt Deep in the layers of snow, ice and melt. I cross the broad snowfield Pristine mountain tide Like shimmering diamonds, Beneath my skis glide. The “craaack,” I glance upward; The cornice above Breaks loose, headed for me Now push comes to shove. The mountain consumes me I tumble and spin The avalanche monster

And its jaws I am in. It’s freezing and painful I’m battered and torn My right leg is broken I’m trapped in my gore. The slide stops and freezes I can’t move at all I’m so very “lucky” I survived the long fall. But now I lament That I skied here alone It will be in the spring When they find my bones. Claustrophobic and angry, Terrified, shallow breaths Heart races, then falters As I face my death.

Aiming for mediocrity is all about perspective could not calculate how far you would travel in an hour in a car that was cruising at 80 miles per hour. I do hope these two don’t have children. Miles per hour is only one example; we throw terms around such as million, billion and now trillion without really giving any perspective. A million dollars isn’t what it used to be and it has become so trivial in professional sports and entertainment that salaries always seem to be rounded off to the nearest million rather than, say, $15,353,233 per year for a slugging first baseman. Seemingly the agent and the team owners sit there and bargain over salaries in $1 million increments the same way normal people do rounding their restaurant tips off to the nearest dollar. I’ve given up trying to figure out professional sports, but we might consider something more contentious such as the alleged $1.4 trillion deficit divided by the alleged population of the country. It comes to about $4,625 which

Slightly Off Center DENNIS HINKAMP

“Aspire to Mediocrity!” won’t sell many books or get you on talk shows, but it’s an honorable goal. People used to laugh when I told them that I was proud I went from being a mediocre high school runner to a mediocre college runner. I wasn’t making a joke; it really was an accomplishment. People just don’t understand numbers. There are about 38,000 public and private high schools combined while there are only about r2,500 public and private 4-year institutions. -Thus, on average, it’s a lot harder to make the track team in college. It would be sort of like going from the median income of all Americans to the median income of National Basketball Association power forwards. It’s all about perspective and context. I know it is popular to say that “I’m not good at math and stuff,” but you don’t have to know much math to understand simple numerical concepts. The now-famous wife of a YouTube-happy jerk

actually sounds less scary than I thought it would. Most of us have a credit card limit high enough to handle that. However, you need to multiply it by everyone in your nuclear family including the newborn who likely is not contributing to either the household income or the gross domestic product. Speaking of gross domestic statistics, saying you are average weight for your height isn’t much of an accomplishment in a nation that is, on average, overweight. I’m trying to keep politics out of it, but numbers do have a lot

to do with your concept of the American dream. In some circles it is akin to socialism to aspire to earn a median income and live in a median house with a median number of children and a median-sized dog. Mediocrity is a tough sell in politics because everyone wants to aspire to be far above the median. Maybe it would be easier to take money and political accounting out of the equation. A million minutes is 694 days (rounding down) a billion minutes is 1,901

years allowing for rounding and leap years. A trillion minutes is 1,901,324 years which is based on a time before time was kept, and a future so far away nobody cares. In the scheme of things, the 3 minutes spent reading a column such as this one is a sub-atomic speck on a speck of the universal timeline.

Exhibit of Everett Ruess prints on display Utah State University Libraries presents “Everett Ruess Block Prints,” a Utah Arts & Museums’ Traveling Exhibition March 30 through April 29 at Merrill-Cazier Library on the Utah State University Logan campus. The exhibit includes a selection of block prints created by artist and writer Everett Ruess, depicting his travels throughout the western United States in the early 20th century. The prints are among those he created during the five-year period prior to his disappearance in the Escalante canyons in 1934. A young artist and writer, Ruess roamed throughout the southwestern United States during the early 1930s. In order to pay tribute to and preserve his memory of the desert and mountains he respected and loved, Ruess recorded his travels in poems, essays, letters, watercolors, sketches and linocut block prints. As his wanderlust became an obsession, Ruess would sell or trade his artwork to help fund his travels. In 1934, at the age of 20, Ruess mysteriously disappeared in the Escalante Canyons and was

never heard from again. Today, Ruess is known as a folk hero and symbol of the wilderness conservation movement. The Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance and Utah Arts & Museums have combined efforts to restore the original lino-cuts in this collection. The images chronicle his travels along the California coast, high in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and among the deserts and canyons of Utah and Arizona. “Everett Ruess Block Prints” will be located in the Merrill-

Cazier Library atrium gallery. The library is open Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to midnight; Friday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Saturday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Sunday, noon to midnight. The Utah Arts & Museums’ Traveling Exhibit Program is a statewide outreach program that provides schools, museums, libraries and community galleries the opportunity to bring curated exhibitions to their community. The program is supported in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.

Wrath Continued from p. 7 Perseus and his crew bounce from one CGI-laden action scene to the other without much time to stop and gather ourselves in between. The

computer graphics seem much better this time around, but they only go so far. The appearance of Cronos, who is a gigantic lava monster, is neat at first, but like all special effects of this ilk, they get old fast when there isn’t some kind of believable human element backing them up. “Wrath of the Titans” seems way

too keen on finishing the movie as fast as possible. It races towards its conclusion. Soon you find yourself at the movie’s climax without even realizing how you got there. The film moves at a dizzying pace, because the action-centric plot says it must. The climax proves somewhat exciting, but then it’s undercut by being far too short and followed

by intentional, but unfunny humor and sappy melodrama. Finally, at the end they had time to get us to care about the characters, and all they did was crack a few lame jokes. That’s the “Titans” movies for you though. Like a Cyclops, the writers and producers have tunnel-vision. They aren’t concerned with characters, just CGI-infused action.
