ting in a tiny white chair made for a 3-year-old, waiting to hold a bunny. Children were sitting on either side of me while their parents towered above. Some of the kids were holding the adorable, fuzzy critters while the others, like me, were hoping for a turn. Of course I got passed over a few times because kids always come first in these kinds of situations, but eventually one of the moms asked me if I wanted to hold a bunny. And I did - even as my friends were laughing and snapping pictures of the only adult who wanted to be just like the kids. It was Baby Animal Days at the Ameri-

can West Heritage Center, an event I’ve attended twice within recent years. I’ve pet the goats, held the chicks and the tiny turtles that are half the size of my palm. Last year I even saw those baby bears they brought in from Bear World I’ll admit I go a little crazy when I see little friendly animals. I’ve never been one to talk in a sing-song voice to babies and children, but there’s no holding it back when it comes to fuzzy friends. There’s something about bunnies and baby ducks and pigs that makes you happy. And it’s nice to know that baby animals essentially mean spring is here, even if it doesn’t feel like it in Cache Valley. If you haven’t been to see the animals at AWHC in the past, make this year your year. I know it’s crowded and sometimes cold, but once you or your kids see the first bunny, it will be worth it. — Manette Newbold Cache Magazine editor

a happy boy! Pops has lots of energy and will need an active home. He is very sweet and loving and would love to be your best friend. Pops loves toys and would play for hours. Pops would require continued obedience training as he does jump and bounce around. Because of his big size and eagerness to be with you, a home without small children/toddlers would be best.

USU to host annual poetry night

ache Children’s Choir Summer Music Camp will be held July 11-15 at the USU Chase Fine Arts Center. All children from 5 to 11 years old can register. The 2011 Summer Music Camp offers a positive, fun, creative musical experience through vocal instruction, instruments (xylophones, glockenspiels, drums, etc.), dance, art, drama and games. Susan Swidnicki teaches the 5-6 year old age groups of Cache Children’s Choir Music Camp. Swidnicki holds a master’s degree in music from St. Louis Conservatory of Music. She is the principal oboist of the Ballet West Orchestra and teaches music for Rowland Hall Beginning School, Let Me Shine Preschool and Canyon Rim Academy 5th and 6th grades. She directs the children’s choirs and Orff ensembles at Zion Lutheran Church where she works with children from 2 years through high school. She received her Orff training from Trinity University, University of Kentucky and Utah State University.

She has presented workshops on children’s music for the Utah Montessori Conference, Trade Secrets workshops for Utah Arts Educators, USU Level 1 Orff course and the Utah Orff-Schulwerk Association. Each session of CCC Summer Music Camp is divided into three age groups: 5-6 years old, 7-8 years old and 9-11 years old. Cost is $60 per child. Sessions run from 9 a.m. to noon, and 1 to 4 p.m. daily. Space is limited. For questions or more information call Lori Roberts at 435-563-0618 or visit www. cachechildrenschoir.org and click on “Camps.”

tah State University will host the fifth annual Beat and Slam Poetry Night tonight at 6:30 p.m. This year’s event, which will take place in the Taggart Student Center Ballroom, will feature slam poet Intikana, along with selected poems by Beat poets and performances by student poets. A gallery walk beginning at 6 p.m. in the Taggart Student Center will showcase USU’s student artists; art will be available for purchase. Tickets are $7 in advance, $10 at the door, and are available at beatslamtickets.usu.edu, at the University Inn, the USU Writing Center (RBW 104), and True Aggie Café (117 N. Main, Logan). Hot beverages will be provided by Caffe Ibis and USU Catering. Unique coffee mugs – original works of art – have been created by potters of the USU Ceramics Guild as souvenirs for this year’s attendees. The first 400 advance ticket purchases guarantee a custom mug. Intikana, previously known as “Fascious,” is an Urban Word NYC Mentor and Teaching Artist who has taught workshops at universities, public schools, community centers, and prison facilities across the United

States. He is a world-renowned writer, performer, and hip-hop documentarian. The Fascious Video Page on YouTube states, “As a member of the Rebel Diaz Arts Collective, Intikana seeks to utilize culture as a means for education and self-empowerment by promoting responsibility for the arts.” Darren Edwards, a slam poet and event organizer, says beat and slam poetry are close companions: “Slam poetry is a lovechild of the beat poetry movement, whose poets pushed beyond conformity in content and technique. Like beat poetry spoken in the coffee-houses of the ’60s, slam poetry is conscious of its listeners because its listeners are in the presence of the poet.” “‘Beat.Slam.Uncensored.’ is wonderfully successful,” says Star Coulbrooke, who was responsible for cocreating the first event in 2006. “Each year we continue to grow and build on the success of the year before. We have tremendous support at USU and throughout the community.” For more information visit Beat. Slam.Uncensored. on facebook, call 435.797.3853 or email star.coulbrooke@english.usu.edu.

Family presents afternoon of magic and music

he Hatch Academy of Magic and Music presents “Matinée Enchantée,” an enchanted afternoon of magic and music in the historic Thatcher-Young Mansion on April 9 at 2 p.m. Deceptionist Richard Hatch and violinist Rosemary Hatch, co-owners of the Hatch Academy, will be joined by their son, pianist Jonathan Hatch in a 75minute program featuring the music of Béla Bartók, Camille SaintSaëns, Johann Sebastian Bach and Fritz Kreisler and magic created by Johann Nepomuk Hofzinser, Jean Eugène Robert-Houdin, Dai Vernon and Punx, among others. A unique feature of the program is the ensemble aspect with magic and music performed simultaneously. While the performance includes numerous magical and musical solos, it is the ensemble pieces, with the magic choreographed to the music, that give this program

its special character. Richard Hatch holds two graduate degrees in physics from Yale University, but finds it easier apparently to violate the laws of nature than to discover them. A childhood interest in magic became a lifelong obsession after he met and was encouraged by the German magician Fredo Raxon in 1970. Richard has been a full-time professional “deceptionist” since 1983. Rosemary Kimura Hatch received her master’s degree from Yale School of Music and her bachelor’s degree with performer’s certificate from Eastman School of Music. She has performed with the New Haven, Hartford, San Antonio and Houston symphonies and with the Houston Grand Opera. Jonathan Hatch studied piano at St. Thomas University in Houston, Texas, and at the University of Texas in Austin. He is currently

studying piano privately while simultaneously pursuing studies to become a veterinary technician. In his spare time, he volunteers at the Cache Valley Humane Society. Richard said he and his wife first performed such a program at the Puppet House Theater in Stony Creek, Conn., in 1983. The matinées are currently scheduled for the second Saturday of each month at the Thatcher-Young Mansion, 35 W. 100 South in Logan. For these performances, the downstairs gallery space will be transformed into a 56-seat theater. Tickets are $10 for adults, and $7 for children under 12. Because there are only 56 seats are available, advance purchase is strongly advised to avoid disappointment. Tickets may be purchased online at the Hatch Academy website www. HatchAcademy.com or by calling 435-9320017.

n an effort to display professional work by local artists, the Hyrum Library recently devoted some wall space in the building to just that – local art. The works were created by Trent Gudmundsen, Jerry Fuhriman, Robert Guy, Kristi Grussendorf and Colleen Howe. The artists are award winners living in Cache Valley, many of them with galleries throughout Utah and other states. “We’ve always wanted to be able to display art,” said Scott Bushman, board member of the Hyrum Library Foundation. “Our mission is that it’s really a community center, kind of a gathering place. What this represents is our first attempt to start displaying art.” For now, local landscape artists are being featured. Bushman said the collection will be displayed until the summer, and then will be switched out for paintings by other artists. Robert Guy A native Californian, Robert Guy studied at California Polytechnic and Laguna Art Institute. His style has been self taught from his exposure to nature, life, art museums, people, emotions and life lessons. Many of his paintings are within the obscure world of conception art, a sublime visual interpretation of the world through the impressions of an artist’s eye. “The Cornucopia Collection” is a transformation style change of his works through the years.

Kristi Grussendorf Kristi Grussendorf graduated with a BFA with an emphasis in painting and drawing from the University of Utah and was especially influenced by Paul Daves, Dave Dorman, Doug Snow and George Dibble. Although she enjoys oils, she has focused on watercolors for the last few years. She says the transparency of watercolors produces a freshness and purity of color unequaled in other mediums. She has won several awards and has had work displayed in various states.

Colleen Howe Born in American Fork, Colleen Howe grew up in southwestern Montana with her family. Growing up on a 1,000 acre cattle ranch in the middle of the Big Hole Valley encouraged her to love the open landscape. She attended a two-room school house in Jackson, Mont., and since her teacher was responsible for four grades, she took advantage of free time by drawing. Howe studied painting at Brigham Young University, then specialized in studying pastel painting with Sally Strand and Doug Dawson. She also studied with Michael Workman. She teaches plein air painting workshops across the United States and in 2008, she led her first 10-day workshop in Provence, France. In 2005 she was awarded prestigious signature member status with the Pastel Society of America and American Women Artists.

By Trent Gudmundsen

Trent Gudmundsen Many of Trent Gudmundsen’s paintings have a decidedly small-town or rural feel to them, and conjure up thoughts of yesteryear, and rightly so since the artist is enthralled by old-fashioned selfsufficiency and traditional farm skills. Gudmundsen often paints interior scenes in addition to landscape. Gudmundsen is represented by fine art galleries in California, New Mexico, Arizona, Montana and Utah. Jerry Fuhriman Jerry Fuhriman is well-known for his paintings

of the western landscape. A native of northern Utah, Fuhriman spends much of his painting time in the deep canyons of southern Utah or the rural landscapes of western United States. Fuhriman’s love of landscape is also expressed through his many years of involvement as a professor and consultant in environmental planning. He has taught at major universities in Illinois, Utah, Minnesota, and Ontario, Canada. He conceived and initiated the Native American Native American students. His work has been featured in Southwest Art, Santa Fe-Taos Collectors guide and New Mexico Traveler magazine. He is represented by many fine art galleries throughout the western states.

Highs and lows of the summer movie lineup e’ve only got W one more month to go until the summer

movie season swings into full effect. The first week in May sees a few tent-pole releases, and then from there this summer will be a high-flying movie season of action, sequels, and comic book movies. So, what are the movies that you should be excited to see, and what are the movies that may not live up to the hype? Let’s check out what this summer season has to offer.

New this week â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopâ&#x20AC;? Rated PG â&#x2DC;&#x2026;â&#x2DC;&#x2026; Russell Brandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Easter romp has one of the cutest bunnies youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ever see and plenty of other eye candy among its computer-generated visuals, yet thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not much bounce to the story behind this inter-species buddy comedy. Letting badboy Brand supply the voice of the Easter bunny sounds like a promising way to add spice to a warm and fuzzy family flick. Too bad the movie winds up about as bland as carrot-flavored jelly beans. Its gooey sentiment and hare-brained gags are likely to appeal only to very young kids. Director Tim Hill trips up on his scattered attempts to inject some hipness for older children and parents. Blending live action and digital animation, the movie features James Marsden as the unwilling human escort for Brandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s screwy rabbit, who has run away from home because he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to follow his dad into the family business as the new Easter bunny. The animation is the movieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strong point, presenting a rainbow-colored world that should satisfy young childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cinematic sweet tooth, even if the action is sour. 94 minutes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Source Codeâ&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s swifter, glossier, more ambitious. And for a long time, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a thrilling and challenging puzzle based on a clever idea â&#x20AC;&#x201D; until it pushes its central gimmick and gets too greedy at the end.

Still playing â&#x20AC;&#x153;Insidiousâ&#x20AC;? Rated PG-13 â&#x2DC;&#x2026;â&#x2DC;&#x2026;â&#x2DC;&#x2026; This is the kind of movie you could watch with your eyes closed and still feel engrossed by it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a haunted-house thriller filled with all the usual creaking doors, groaning floors and things that go bump in the night, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll also grab you with some disturbing, raspy whispers on a baby monitor, some melancholy piano plunkings and the panicky bleating of an alarm as a front door is flung open in the middle of the night. The grandfather clock in the hall tick-tocks in time to the dripping water in the kitchen faucet, and the cumulative cacophony is unsettling on a level you may not even actively recognize. But director James Wan and writer Leigh Whannell, who originated the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sawâ&#x20AC;? keeps us as consistently confused and off-guard from the start as its cen-

series, also use silence quite skillfully to build real fear and suspense. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t offer anything you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t experienced before in the genre â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take too long to figure out this is their version of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Poltergeistâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but they put the pieces together effectively. You know the scares are coming, and yet you hold your breath waiting for them to happen. It certainly helps to have a cast led by actors who can actually act. Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne star as Josh and Renai, a husband and wife whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just moved into a charming, old craftsman with their two young sons and an infant daughter. The long, slow build establishes that things arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite right with this place, but maybe they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite right with this family either. 102 minutes.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Lincoln Lawyerâ&#x20AC;? Rated R â&#x2DC;&#x2026;1â &#x201E;2 Matthew McConaughey stars as a lawyer who drives around Los Angeles ... in a Lincoln. Director Brad Furmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s film, which John Romano wrote based on the Michael Connelly novel, has the slick, disposable feel of the sort of legal drama you could find any

night of the week on primetime TV. From the opening titles and underdeveloped characters to the quick pacing and flat lighting, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Lincoln Lawyerâ&#x20AC;? seems insubstantial, recycled and forgettable. McConaughey plays Mick Haller, a cocky, sleazy defense attorney who thinks heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got it all figured out. But, because this is a McConaughey movie, his character will have his comeuppance, and it comes in the form of a high-profile case. Beverly Hills real estate heir Louis Roulet (Ryan Phillippe) is accused in the rape and attempted murder of a prostitute. Louis insists heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s innocent, so it should be no problem. But this pretty boy is, naturally more dangerous than he looks. 119 minutes. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; All reviews by The Associated Press

Each team in the league will consist of four members of any combination — four men, four women, mixed couples or adults/children. “That’s a fun (league) for any skill level because there will be guys bringing their families and kids out that haven’t bowled before,” Logan Lanes President Mike Kvarfordt said. “... That’s usually a fun one in the summer because it’s Daylight Savings Time and it’s just a night people plan to go out and have their dinner and have some fun, then it’s usually done right around dusk.” Leagues are vital to the success of Logan Lanes, which opened in 1959. “It’s the bread and butter of our business,” Kvarfordt said. “It’s probably the most important thing in our business. “Mostly, it just gets people together as a unit and gets people to know each other. It’s kind of like one big family in there. It gives people the chance to have a night

out.” Ken Noble, who has been bowling on a league at Logan Lanes since 1961, agreed. “I enjoy the people I bowl with and I enjoy most of the people on the league,” said Noble, who bowls on Thursday Men’s Commercial League. “And, I like the competition.” Logan Lanes has leagues every night except for Sunday. Monday and Wednesday nights are for ladies; Tuesday and Thursday nights are for men; Friday morning is for ladies, while Friday night is a mixed league. Then on Saturday morning, there are two separate leagues for junior bowlers — the difference between the two is the Pee Wee League is allowed to use bumpers. “Our kids’ leagues are actually growing,” Kvarfordt said. “It seems like they’re starting to see a slow comeback. Not great, more and more kids are starting to come out. I think it’s just because bowling in general is starting to make a comeback across the country. They’re showing a lot more of it on TV and in high schools, they have these junior bowling tournaments and they’re involving high school clubs.” Which is what Kvarfordt wants to see happen with Logan, Mountain Crest and Sky View. “The biggest thing I’d like to see in the future is high school bowling clubs,” he said. “... In Salt Lake City, they have it big

time and across the country it’s one of the biggest participant sports in high school. Bowling is either No. 1 or No. 2. ... They get scholarships and they’re the ones that go on to become professionals.” Logan Lanes has offered leagues since its opening day. “My dad (Don Kvarfordt) back then was a recruiter,” Mike said. “He’d walk the streets of Logan and walk all up and down the streets handing flyers out to the businesses. That’s back when they used to let you in their door and they’d take the time to talk to you. Nowadays, they don’t really do that and I’m guilty of that, too. I just don’t want to talk to everybody because everything is so fast-paced now.” Noble, who recently turned 78, is the oldest male league bowler at Logan Lanes. “I’ve been bowling for Edward’s Furniture since 1961 and I’ve sponsored a lot of leagues, one down at the old Logan Bowling Center and one down at Logan Lanes,” Noble recalled. “I bowled one year down at the Logan Bowling Center before I went out to Logan Lanes. Doral Elder was the one that got me to go out to Logan Lanes and bowl with Edward’s Furniture and I’ve been there ever since.” Noble — like many other bowlers — used to bowl multiple times per week, but is now down to just the one league. “The economy has taken a big hit with

us,” Kvarfordt said. “People that bowl two or three nights a week are now bowling just one. We see a lot of holes, but overall they end up filling up somewhere else. When we lose some of the ladies’ teams, we’ll pick up more on another night or on the mixed couples league. Some are quitting one league so they can bowl another or vise versa.” In Noble’s case, it was a conflict of interest. “I sing with the Imperial Glee Club and they changed their practice night from Monday night to Tuesday night,” Noble said. “I didn’t sing with them for about three years because of that, but two of the guys couldn’t come and bowl on Tuesday night, so I thought, ‘Well, I’ll just drop the team on Tuesday and just sing with the Imperial Glee Club.’” Kvarfordt and his staff are always looking for ways to better the leagues and bowling center in general. “We are just thinking of things we can do all the time to improve Logan Lanes,” Kvarfordt said. “We try to keep up with the latest and we try to make sure the bowlers have a good scoring condition all the time. That’s probably the biggest reason bowlers come and bowl at our place is because they can come in and get a good shot, bowl on a good, normal league shot, and improve their bowling each time they come in.”

Making the world better through peer pressure By The Associated Press

hen Tina Rosenberg told people she was writing a book on peer pressure, they assumed the worst. After all, wasn’t peer pressure often cited as the cause of bad behavior? But what if peer pressure could change the world for the better? Rosenberg’s latest book, “Join the Club: How Peer Pressure Can Transform the World,” profiles innovators who have used positive peer pressure — what Rosenberg calls “the social cure” — to tackle society’s more intrac-

table problems. Her book contains over a dozen examples of the social cure at work: Fostering AIDS awareness through a lifestyles brand. Reforming the entrenched discrimination that India’s “untouchables” face by teaching them valued nursing skills. Alleviating the problem of suburban isolation. Getting kids to stop smoking, learn calculus. Even overthrowing a dictator. Rosenberg is known for getting as close to her subjects as possible — and emerging to tell the tale. The chapters dedicated to the overthrow of Yugoslavia’s

President Slobodan Milosevic in 2000 can be read as a

Henning Mankell retires his beloved detective By The Associated Press

he widely heralded T return of Henning Mankell’s fictional but fallible and humane

police detective Kurt Wallander is also a poignant farewell. In this latest Wallander mystery, longingly awaited by fans worldwide, the Swedish master promises a “journey into the swamps where truth and lies are indistinguishable and nothing is clear.” With a first chapter about mysterious long-ago submarine maneuvers, Mankell seems to be shifting into a political gear for Wallander’s last stand. But Wallander’s attraction always has been familial and emotional: We wish it were his heart and soul lurking beneath the gruff exterior of any number of acquaintances. And it’s soon

apparent that something frightening and mysterious is overtaking Wallander the man. An unrelenting restlessness leads him to dinner alone at a restaurant in town, where he drinks too much and leaves behind his service revolver. The 60-year-old worries about shadows inside his head and feels removed from scenes that are intimate parts of his life. His personal mystery, punctuated with the arrival of his first grandchild and the purchase of a tiny dream house by the sea, becomes as compelling as the professional question of why and how an enigmatic retired Navy officer has disappeared. Mankell weaves in the strained politics of peacetime military alliances and the understated beauty of Sweden’s seaside geography and produces a highly engaging modern mystery.

continuation of her Pulitzer Prize-winning “The Haunted Land: Facing Europe’s Ghosts After Communism.” Her first book, “Children of Cain: Violence and the Violent in Latin America,” was written in a similar fashion about countries in Central and Latin America struggling with violence, corruption and geopolitical pressure during their transition to democracy. Written while she was on a five-year sojourn to the region on a MacArthur Foundation grant, the gutsy chronicle has become required reading on the modern history of Latin America.

Just as her previous works describing brutality and government oppression are difficult to endure for the horrors they exposed, this new optimistic tale of hope might be just as difficult a subject for many reasons. But Rosenberg isn’t a Pollyanna. This is a well-documented account of how peer groups can change the world, and already have. Rosenberg works on The New York Times collaboration Fixes, an online column about social change for which this book could be considered an introduction.
