From the editor

A

few weeks ago I was given some old copies of Cache Magazine from July 1996 to look through. I’ve started working on a redesign for the magazine and wanted to see how some of the old designs looked. It was fun to flip through and read some of the stories. My managing editor and I talked about how certain fonts and designs that seem pretty simple now must have been really innovative then. I was going to enter the 6th grade in 1996 and remember going to movies like “Phenomenon,” “Independence Day,” and “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” – all movies advertised in the magazine that summer. One thing that popped out at me right away, however, was William Moore’s

mnewbold@hjnews.com

wine column. I had no idea he had been writing so long and it was cool to see the column was very similar to how it runs today, with personal stories and opinions on the wines he tried. Around the office William is known at “the wine guy.” In his column this month (page 10) he gives a brief history of how the column started and how it’s continued for about 18 years. For the first time since William began writing for Cache, he is taking a break for at least the summer, and maybe longer. In an email he sent me this week, William says he’s enjoyed his experiences with wine with his readers, and I know he’s got a following out there. A few weeks ago his column was retweeted on Twitter several times. I wanted to thank William for his work here and wish him the best this summer and beyond. – Manette Newbold Cache Magazine editor

Film Still playing “The Hangover Part II” Rated R ★1⁄2 It’s hard to imagine a worse attempt at cashing in a second time. Seriously, it feels like the script was pieced together with the help of Mad Libs, with only slightly different and raunchier details replacing those that helped the original “Hangover” from 2009 become the highestgrossing R-rated comedy of all time. But so much of the allure of that first film was the novelty of the premise, the unpredictability of the adventures, and the sense that we, too, were wandering in a daze, helping solve the mystery of the debauched night before. Giving the people what they want is one thing. Making nearly the exact same movie a second time, but shifting the setting to Thailand, is just

... what, lazy? Arrogant? Maybe a combination of the two. That’s essentially what director Todd Phillips has done. This time, Ed Helms’ mild-mannered dentist, Stu, is the one getting married at a resort in Thailand, his fiancee’s family’s home country. Although he insists he doesn’t want a bachelor party, he, Phil (Bradley Cooper) and Alan (Zach Galifianakis) still manage to wake up in a stupor in a squalid Bangkok hotel. 101 minutes. “Kung Fu Panda 2” Rated PG ★★ The roly-poly Po is back with high energy, some lovely visuals and peppy, playful voice work, as always, from star Jack Black. But the freshness and novelty that made the original film such a kick back in 2008 has been, well, kicked to bits. And the story line of this sequel

feels overstuffed with plotlines and characters. Parents also should be aware of some violent, frightening imagery that may be too much for the littlest kids. Everyone else will probably delight in the animated spectacle from director Jennifer Yuh Nelson, which is bright and tactile, bold and subtle. The 3-D is generally unobtrusive but doesn’t really add anything, either. The most beautiful parts actually come from the other kinds of visual styles that are worked in, including a delicate segment that features paper-style animation. “Delicate” probably isn’t the first word that comes to mind when pondering the portly Po, who’s gone from the underdog dreaming of kung-fu greatness to the Dragon Warrior himself. He must protect the Valley of Peace with the help of The Furious Five, the various animal species who fight

alongside him and happen to come with celebrity voices. He begins to wonder about his past just as a megalomaniacal peacock named Lord Shen (Gary Oldman) is hell-bent on dominating the future. These two story lines run parallel to each other and eventually collide but never truly gel. 90 minutes. “X-Men: First Class” Rated PG-13 ★★★The prequel to the “X-Men” trilogy is one of the best Marvel Comics adaptations, packed with action, humor, retro 1960s style that’s both campy and sexy and a revisionist history lesson that puts the super-powered mutants at the center of the Cuban missile crisis. Bryan Singer, who directed the superior first two “X-Men” flicks, returns as a producer and idea man, and Matthew Vaughn,

another filmmaker adept at blending smarts and action (“Stardust,” ‘’Kick-Ass”), was wisely recruited as director and co-writer. The young cast led by James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender is no match for Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen and the rest of the grand ensemble Singer enlisted for the first “X-Men” in 2000. Yet McAvoy’s playful energy and unshakable nobility and Fassbender’s slowburning wrath and unflinching pragmatism nicely prefigure Stewart’s august Professor X and McKellen’s dogmatic Magneto. Kevin Bacon’s a blast as a mutant bad guy aiming to start a nuclear war. With January Jones, Jennifer Lawrence, Rose Byrne and Nicholas Hoult. 130 minutes. — All reviews by The Associated Press

LYRIC REPERTORY C O M P A N Y OLD

“Judy Moody and the NOT Bummer Summer” Rated PG ★Here’s the kindest thing we can say: The kids sure do work awfully hard. They mug and they mope. They run around and jump up and down. They throw themselves headlong into pratfalls and vomit gags with equal elan. If only the material were worthy of such dedication. Instead, director John Schultz’s adaptation of the popular children’s book series by Megan McDonald is a shrill, shallow cacophony of individual antic moments without much narrative momentum. Little kids — we’re talking really little kids — might find it a pleasant diversion, with all

that perky noise and incessant motion. For everyone else, it’ll be death. Australian newcomer Jordana Beatty stars as the title character, a young girl in idyllic suburbia who’s psyched to share the summer with her closest friends. But then, one by one, they get dragged away to more exotic destinations. So she’s left with her younger brother, Stink (Parris Mosteller), and their Aunt Opal (Heather Graham), whom they’ve never met. But hey, what do you know? Aunt Opal is one of those wacky aunts, the kind who like to do art projects in the middle of the living room and make elaborate feasts that destroy the kitchen. The kind you only see in movies. 91 minutes.

emember watchR ing Spielberg movies in the ‘80s? That unnerv-

ing feeling you got while watching “Jaws,” or the wonderment that washed over you during your first viewing of “ET.” How about the first time you watched “The Goonies?” Those kids cussed like sailors, but that movie has gone down as one of the perennial classics from that time period, and even though Spielberg didn’t direct that one, he did have a hand in writing it. So why do I mention these things while discussing the movie “Super 8?” Well, you’re about to have those feelings brought back in a wave of nostalgia the first time you sit down and watch it. J.J. Abrams, with the help of Spielberg working as a producer, has crafted a movie that works on its own merits, but it’s certainly bolstered by the strong wistfulness that comes along with it. The movie is set in the small town of Lillian, Ohio. A group of kids from this small town are making a homemade zombie movie to enter into a state film festival. Using their parents’ super 8mm cameras the kids set about recreating a hilarious depiction of zombies taking over and a detective trying to stop it. Joe Lamb (Joel Courtney) is the main focus of the movie. Joe is the son of the town’s Sheriff Deputy, Jackson Lamb (Kyle Chandler). Joe and his father are grieving after the loss of his mother in a tragic factory accident. In Joe’s group of friends is a domineering overweight kid named Charles (Riley Griffiths) who steals every scene he’s in. Even though you

know that this movie is going to be packed full of that feel-good summer action that we’ve come to expect from big blockbusters like this, believe me when I say the interaction between this group of youngsters is the very best part of the movie. Abrams and crew has found these two young actors in Courtney and Griffiths that have had no previous feature film experience. You wouldn’t be able to tell though. They’re fresh faces and natural demeanor do wonders for the movie. These kids converse like the well-oiled group of Goonies who go in search of buried pirate treasure. There’s more than enough clever adolescent humor to go around. On to the plot ... well, at least what I can divulge of the plot. It isn’t giving anything away to say that “Super 8” is a monster movie of sorts. You can tell that much from the preview. There’s a large train wreck, and something emerges from

the train. The kids accidentally catch a distorted view of it on their camera. Weird events begin taking place in the town and no one can explain what’s happening. An ominous military force moves in to control the situation, all the while this group of kids become deeply involved in what’s really going on. The train wreck is an absolutely jaw-dropping moment. I haven’t felt that surprised by a scene since the first time I saw the rotating hallway scene in “Inception.” Train cars fly everywhere. Continuous explosions almost force you to the edge of your seat wondering if the madness will ever end. It’s a scene where you’re able to just sit back and bask in its pure popcorn feel. This is a movie that knows how to film action and it’s squeezing out every last drop of excitement possible. Watching “Super 8” is a unique experience. Abrams plays the movie

★★★★ “Super 8” Rated PG-13

much like “Jaws” where he doesn’t reveal the creature until the third act. I’ve always wondered why more creature features don’t go this route.

It’s a surefire way to build suspense while still driving the story forward. However cool the creature and the action may be, the kids are who

the movie is really about. These kids are so genuine and so clever, that “Super 8” will become this generation’s “Goonies,” and I don’t say that lightly.

Fry Street Quartet named Utah’s ‘Best Instrumental Group’

t’s no secret the Fry Street Quartet has won its share of awards. But being named “Best Instrumental Group” in the Utah Best of State awards for the third year is still a special accomplishment. “It makes us feel like we make a difference in our home state, our home town,” said Anne Francis, the group’s cellist. In addition to Francis, the group includes William Fedkenheuer and Rebecca McFaul on the violin, and Bradley Ottesen on the viola. The four come from all around the U.S. and Canada but have converged in Logan as the professional string quartet in residence as faculty at Utah State University. In 2000, three years after Fry Street Quartet formed, the group received the Millennium Grand Prize at the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition — the largest chamber music competition in the world. The following year, Fry Street performed at Carnegie Hall, and in 2002 began an international career in the Balkan states. As the string quartet in residence at USU since 2002, Fry Street continues to travel and perform — especially during summer months. But Logan is home now. Unlike other colleges with quartets that simply show up once or twice a semester to speak or perform, Fry Street Quartet members live in Cache Valley and consider a major part of their job mentoring and teaching the many USU string majors. McFaul, the only original member of the quartet — which was founded in Chicago, said the “real sense of community” within the program keeps her passionate about her work. “It’s rare to end up with the right people,” she said. But it’s not just the music community she loves, adding that she’s made “vibrant connections with different people across dif-

ferent disciplines.” “The level of engagement is really stimulating,” she said. On Wednesday, the group performed at the Logan LDS Tabernacle as part of the “Noon Music” series. It’s usually the first concert of the summer that allows the quartet to see old friends and acquaintances for the first time in awhile. From a presto piece by Ludwig Beethoven to something more “ominous and scary” by Dmitri Shostakovich, Fry Street wowed the audience. “Even just watching them — even if you couldn’t hear the music — is amazing,” one concert-goer whispered to a friend as they stood clapping toward the end. “They are so passionate.” Francis said it was chamber music that made her know at age 8 she wanted to do this sort of thing. “The music is just so great,” she said following Wednesday’s mini-concert. Francis got her start early, first picking up the cello at 4 years old, debuting at 10 at the Inaugural World Cello Congress, and later becoming one of the youngest members of the Kalamazoo Symphony in Michigan. She received her bachelor’s from the Cleveland Institute of Music and a master’s from the Shepherd School of Music at Rice University. Like Francis, the other three members have prestigious histories. Fedkenheuer studied at the Conservatory of Music at Mount Royal College in Calgary at age 4. By 7, he was the youngest member of the Calgary Fiddlers, performing all around the world. He first soloed in the Calgary

Philharmonic in 1994 and then went on to obtain his bachelor’s of music from Shepherd School of Music at Rice University. McFaul began working with famous musicians as a teenager.

Fry Street Quartet named Utah’s ‘Best Instrumental Group’

t’s no secret the Fry Street Quartet has won its share of awards. But being named “Best Instrumental Group” in the Utah Best of State awards for the third year is still a special accomplishment. “It makes us feel like we make a difference in our home state, our home town,” said Anne Francis, the group’s cellist. In addition to Francis, the group includes William Fedkenheuer and Rebecca McFaul on the violin, and Bradley Ottesen on the viola. The four come from all around the U.S. and Canada but have converged in Logan as the professional string quartet in residence as faculty at Utah State University. In 2000, three years after Fry Street Quartet formed, the group received the Millennium Grand Prize at the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition — the largest chamber music competition in the world. The following year, Fry Street performed at Carnegie Hall, and in 2002 began an international career in the Balkan states. As the string quartet in residence at USU since 2002, Fry Street continues to travel and perform — especially during summer months. But Logan is home now. Unlike other colleges with quartets that simply show up once or twice a semester to speak or perform, Fry Street Quartet members live in Cache Valley and consider a major part of their job mentoring and teaching the many USU string majors. McFaul, the only original member of the quartet — which was founded in Chicago, said the “real sense of community” within the program keeps her passionate about her work. “It’s rare to end up with the right people,” she said. But it’s not just the music community she loves, adding that she’s made “vibrant connections with different people across dif-

ferent disciplines.” “The level of engagement is really stimulating,” she said. On Wednesday, the group performed at the Logan LDS Tabernacle as part of the “Noon Music” series. It’s usually the first concert of the summer that allows the quartet to see old friends and acquaintances for the first time in awhile. From a presto piece by Ludwig Beethoven to something more “ominous and scary” by Dmitri Shostakovich, Fry Street wowed the audience. “Even just watching them — even if you couldn’t hear the music — is amazing,” one concert-goer whispered to a friend as they stood clapping toward the end. “They are so passionate.” Francis said it was chamber music that made her know at age 8 she wanted to do this sort of thing. “The music is just so great,” she said following Wednesday’s mini-concert. Francis got her start early, first picking up the cello at 4 years old, debuting at 10 at the Inaugural World Cello Congress, and later becoming one of the youngest members of the Kalamazoo Symphony in Michigan. She received her bachelor’s from the Cleveland Institute of Music and a master’s from the Shepherd School of Music at Rice University. Like Francis, the other three members have prestigious histories. Fedkenheuer studied at the Conservatory of Music at Mount Royal College in Calgary at age 4. By 7, he was the youngest member of the Calgary Fiddlers, performing all around the world. He first soloed in the Calgary

Philharmonic in 1994 and then went on to obtain his bachelor’s of music from Shepherd School of Music at Rice University. McFaul began working with famous musicians as a teenager. She received a bachelor’s in violin performance at Oberlin Conservatory and a master’s in the same study at Northwestern University. Ottesen began training at the Preucil School of Music in Iowa City, Iowa, and went on to get a bachelor’s degree from Northwestern and a master’s from the New England Conservatory. Prior to his move to Logan, he was the assistant principal violist with the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra for four seasons. Still, the Best of State award sticks out to these four artists. In its ninth year, the program honors excellence in a variety of sectors, including business, entertainment, education, hospitality, retail, technology and sports.

been writing a IThehave monthly wine column in Herald Journal for almost

18 years. According to my numbering I have missed one month in all that time. Occasionally, writing my article has been therapeutic and taken my mind off other concerns. I am going to finally take a summer break, and then see if I have the will to continue in the autumn. I have been most appreciative of the comments and compliments. I cannot believe how many non-drinkers have told me that they enjoyed reading my article, especially when I have traveled or reflected on old experiences. It all started in 1993 when Tim Vitale was editor of Cache Magazine. He printed a wine article written by an expert back east. It was a nice article, but none of the wines mentioned could be purchased locally. I did not know Tim at that time, but called him and said that I could write about wines that could be purchased locally. He said that it was a good idea, but did not know

Cache Wines By William Moore

the feelings of the managing editor. A couple of days later he called me and said that we could try running the article. There were so few bad letters that we never stopped publishing wine articles. There have been many editors of the Cache Magazine, and they have all supported the wine article. The editors have

Recommended F 2009 Seghesio Sonoma Zinfandel at $20.99 F 2004 Vinosia Taurasi at $23.99 (Park City) F 2009 Crios de Susana Balbo Rosé at $11.99 F 2008 Villa Maria Dry Riesling at $14.99 F 2009 Ste. Michelle Pinot Gris at $11.99 F 2009 Ste Michelle Gewurztraminer at $7.99 always produced the headline, and many have been very clever. There has been very little editing of content, but I often make grammatical errors which they correct. I had great wines at three dinners this past month. At the first, a 2008 Hartford Fanucchi Woods Zinfandel was served with tender bison steaks from Colorado. The closest Zinfandel in quality available here is the 2009 Seghesio Sonoma Zinfandel at $20.99. The second dinner was roast lamb served with 2003 Chateau St. Jeans Cinq

Cepages. I had been keeping this wine for several years for such an occasion. The 2004 Vinosia Taurasi at $23.99 from Southern Italy is a huge red wine made from Aglianico grapes, and this was served at the third dinner of the month. The wine was aged for 14 months in oak, and my wine book says that a Taurasi will store for over 10 years. I had never tasted this varietal before and I was delighted by the wonderful aromas and flavors of this wine. After drinking this superb wine, we opened a bottle of the 2009 La Carraia Sangiovese. On another occasion I would have said this was a nice wine, but it was overwhelmed by the residual flavors of the Taurasi. This combination of wines reinforces my belief that you should not mix different varietals at dinner. Both of these wines were purchased in the Park City store. Here are a few wines for summer drinking if the warm weather arrives. You cannot go wrong with a rosé, and the only one I like in the Logan

store is the 2009 Crios de Susana Balbo Rosé at $11.99. This is dry with more body than most rosé wines. While I like the Australian Rieslings, the 2008 Villa Maria Dry Riesling at $14.99 from New Zealand is something special. For an American white wine I like the 2009 Ste. Michelle Pinot Gris at $11.99. This wine contains 6 percent Viognier which gives more body and makes the wine more like an Alsace Pinot Gris. A pleasant surprise for me is the 2009 Ste. Michelle Gewurztraminer at $7.99. This wine has wonderful fruit flavors like pear with a hint of honey. Any of these wines will make for a pleasant summer evening. Have a great summer.

Be your brother’s keeper; it’s for your own good

his country runs T on gossip, snooping and being judgmental; or at least

it did. Lately we have become so entranced with minding our own business and letting everyone follow their respective bliss that we are no longer in touch with anything beyond our respective noses; if that. True, I don’t want a sinister John Ashcroft big brother peeping through my bedroom window, but I do condone just enough neighborly snooping to keep me safe and alive. Several recent events have brought this to my attention. Closest to home are three broad daylight home robberies. Another was the story of a fully clothed man committing suicide by walking into the ocean near San Francisco; nobody tried to stop him or rescue him while he stood out in freezing neck-deep water for 50 minutes. Next was the story of an aging actress found in her own home apparently

nearly a year after she died. Yes, she had neighbors nearby. It has become a cliché that in the aftermath of some lunatic-sex-crime-murdering-madman’s arrest he is described by neighbors as “a quiet guy who mainly kept to himself.” Well,

in many cases, it’s because nobody tried to figure out what he was doing. Maybe someone should have noticed that substantially more people were going into the house than coming out. Oh and what about those raised bed gardens planted at night? Heck, I notice people’s patterns on Facebook and if they don’t post something for a few weeks, I ping them and ask what’s up? At work people start fuming if you don’t answer an email in 48 hours. Maybe we can learn a little from our virtual neighborhoods and let it carry over to our real-life 3D high definition neighborhoods. Make a pledge to do this. I’ll go first. If you see people moving stuff out of my house into a van in the middle of a work day, please take a moment to see if I’m one of them. True, I might be moving or making a trip to the thrift store on

any given Tuesday, but it’s unlikely. Besides, you know if I were to move I’d ask to borrow your truck and your teenage kids. If I’m lying face down by the side of the road, there’s a slight chance that I might be taking a nap and don’t want to be disturbed, but it’s more likely that something is wrong. Please take a moment to tap me on the shoulder or lift my head by my hair to determine for sure. I promise not to throw up on your shoes. If you notice a steady stream of cars coming to my house and only staying a few minutes each, it could be that I have friends with short attention spans, but it’s more likely that I’m either selling drugs or have set up a drive through burger window on the side of my house; both which would be illegal. Please call the police; I deserve it. If newspapers and mail are piling up on the porch, I may

have fallen behind on my reading or I may have fallen down the stairs, broken my neck and become kibble for my starving dog. Please knock on the door or knock it down. Don’t blame my dog; it was not her fault. I was glad to be of service. If you see me walking fully clothed into the ocean, please save me because if I’m ever really set on killing myself this way I’d prefer it to be while naked and swimming at full speed. Dennis Hinkamp would like emphasize that being a good neighbor and following someone on Twitter is not the same thing.

‘La Seduction’ gives tips on French life By Will Weissert For The Associated Press

ne Saturday afterO noon in Paris, a New York Times correspondent was

baking cookies in her running clothes and ran out of butter. Dashing to a convenience store, she ran into a French foreign ministry official who invited her for coffee — rumpled appearance and all. The official pointed out that her street, the impossibly stylish rue du Bac “is not the Upper West Side” of New York, where it might be acceptable to traipse about in sweats. The American shot back that this was her neighborhood and she should be able to wear whatever she wants.

“You can,” he replied, “but you shouldn’t.” In France, you see, dressing sloppily is not only an insult to yourself but also to anyone and everyone you interact with. Times Paris correspondent Elaine Sciolino’s “La Seduction” is crammed with such anecdotes, illustrating how the secrets and subtleties of seduction drive all aspects of French life — from food to social faux pas, fashion to foreign policy. She explains, however, that French seduction is not simply sexual: “The excitement comes less from gratification than desire.” The verb “seduce” has a softer connotation in France — indeed the rather sinister sounding diplomatic term “operation seduction”

Concert and Lecture series presents two authors tonight uthors Chris and Ted A Stewart will be in the Logan Tabernacle Friday, June

10, at 7 p.m., to tell their stories about the research behind their books “Seven Miracles That Saved America” and “Seven Tipping Points that Saved the World.” The program is sponsored by the Concert and Lecture Series Committee at the Tabernacle and is free to the public. Chris is a best-selling author who has published more than a dozen books, has been selected by the Book of the Month Club, and released titles in muliple languages in seven countires. He is a world-record setting Air Force pilot (fastest non-

stop flight around the world) and CEO of The Shipley Group, a national consulting and training company. Ted was appointed as a United States District Court Judge in 1999 by President Bill Clinton. Prior to that he served as chief of staff to Governer Mike Leavitt, as executive director of the State Department of Natural Resources, as a member and chairman of the Public Service Commission, and as chief of staff to Congressman Jim Hansen. He is a visiting professor at Utah State, teaching courses in law and public policy.

translates to “charm offensive.” Still, a writer tells Sciolino that seduction is like breathing for the French, and Alain Baraton,

gardener at the palace of Versailles, calls it “the essence of life.” Yes, the book will make you want to fly to France to sip champagne — maybe even find some stranger to seduce — among the wondrous gardens of Versailles; to stroll past the Eiffel Tower and its carefully layered paint job so that its color appears uniform in any light; or attend a power dinner party where risotto with scallops is the first course and the conversation is at once headswimmingly sophisticated and seemingly effortless. It’s a nice read just for the Frenchness that rubs off as you turn the pages and learn that some schoolchildren in France are required to use fountain

pens and are graded on the beauty of their handwriting; that professional women take classes to shed the chirpiness in their voices; and that entire seminars are offered on table settings and dining habits. Who knew that kissing a woman’s hand must only be done indoors, or that asparagus is to be eaten with your fingers but sorbet with your fork? Sciolino falls into the trap, however, of too frequently comparing France and America. The book gets bogged down in excess us-versusthem-isms, which detract from its strengths, offering tips for surviving life in France as an outsider, for embracing haughty yet exquisite French quirkiness.
