FROM THE EDITOR It seemed appropriate that I received an email from Andy Checketts earlier this week referencing the video he, his brother, Taylor, and their friend Jake Barrett made with a cast of thousands in their backyard for a contest sponsored by Dairy Queen.

After all, the Major League Baseball All-Star Game is next week, and in my younger days, my friend Jeff and I usually rode our bikes over to DQ for a sundae in a plastic baseball helmet sometime

during the Midsummer Classic. To this day, ice-cream headaches and the All-Star Game just seem to go together for me.

But Andy, who was featured in a story in Cache Magazine in January 2013 while he was a senior at Mountain Crest High School, and Taylor hope to walk away with more than just a free Toronto Blue Jays helmet. The River Heights duo’s video is one of three finalists for a $10,000 grand prize sponsored by Dairy Queen as a promotion for its S’mores Blizzard.

Should they win the big money, the Checketts plan to use most of it for their college educations. However, they have announced that they’ll donate $2,000 of it their neighbor Jerusha Daines, who recent-

ly underwent a double lung transplant and a heart valve replacement.

So, if you’re interesting in aiding the cause, visit dqsmoresvideocontest.com/dq to vote for the Checketts’ video/song. And to learn more about Jerusha Daines’ battle against pulmonary hypertension disease, visit gofundme.com/Jerushabreathes.

If nothing else, hopefully Andy and Taylor’s efforts will inspire someone to open a Dairy Queen here. What’s it been? Fifteen years since we had one in Cache Valley?

And I’m getting really tired of having to ride my bike to Brigham City every year during the All-Star Game.

Longtime fan favorite returns to the Old Lyric for the summer

By Whitney Schulte Caine College of the Arts

As many theater patrons already know, the Old Lyric Repertory Company, part of the Caine College of the Arts at Utah State University, has welcomed W. Lee Daily back to the Caine Lyric Theatre stage for the 2014 season.

A year ago, Daily announced that he would be leaving the valley to pursue other opportunities outside the state.

Many patrons were saddened by the news of Daily leaving Cache Valley.

However, the Lyric Rep came calling.

“Once we selected the season and began to assemble the company, we wanted to get Lee Daily here for the summer,” said Richie Call, co-artistic director for the Lyric Rep. “Lee is such a talented actor, he’s so wonderful to work with and our audiences really respond to him. He also happens to be one of my best friends, and the summer wouldn’t have been the same without him.”

Daily said he is often recognized and approached whenever he is out in the community. He loves when the summer citizens talk to him and discuss the shows they have seen him perform in.

PET OF THE WEEK Available for adoption

Pet: Mel From: Four Paws Rescue Why he’s so lovable: Melchizedek (Mel for short) originally came to Four Paws Rescue in February 2009 after being picked up as a stray by animal control in Preston. He was 4 months old at the time and weighed 50 pounds.

Mel was adopted by a nice family shortly after we rescued him and had been with the family ever since. Unfortunately, his owner’s wife passed away a couple years ago, and now his owner himself is having some health issues and is unable to care for Mel. He is 4-5 years old and weighs approximately 120 pounds. Mel is a beautiful Great Pyrenees/yellow lab mix. His adoption fee is $125 which includes his neuter surgery and vaccinations. If you would like to meet Mel, please call and leave a message with Lisa at 7523534, or email us at scfourpaws@ hotmail.com.

The movie is fiction but its power is as a document to life.

NEW YORK (AP) — Richard Linklater’s “Boyhood,” shot over 12 years, has already been hailed as a landmark without parallel in movie history. It took a rare feat of commitment from Linklater and his actors, including star Ellar Coltrane, who was cast as a 6-year-old and wrapped as a 19-year-old.

But Linklater shrugs.

To him, the movie — patiently made by living its own subject, time — isn’t anything audacious.

“It was no different than life itself,” said Linklater in a recent interview with Coltrane. “When people

apes. Some want to kill them before they get too powerful, others aren’t so keen on wiping out an entire species. The same goes for the apes.

Caesar is dealing with dissention in the ranks.

Many apes suffered in their previous lives at the hands of humans in testing centers. Chief among the dissenters is Koba (Toby Kebbell), a scarred ape who underwent horrible abuses as a test subject. Destroying the humans once and for all isn’t only his ambition, it’ll be his pleasure.

For a summer blockbuster, “Dawn” has quite a lot to say. It’s a heady sci-fi thriller, which on the surface appears corny. Take one look at that promotional poster with an ape on a horse hoisting a machine gun in the air, and it’s hard not to chuckle. That said, this is one of the smartest science-fiction thrillers you’ll have the pleasure of seeing this year. It’s a perfect balance of Hollywood spectacle and existential thought.

As a moviegoing public, our awe for computer generated special effects has waned over the years.

“Jurassic Park” introduced us to the sheer power computer animation could wield when telling larger-than-life stories. Today, it seems to be used primarily to destroy large cityscapes in improbable battles between superheroes and super villains. As Transformers bash into each other in sprawling, pointless battles, it’s easy to become increasingly indifferent to the artistry of computer animation.

So, when a movie like “Dawn of the Planet of 1 the Apes” comes out, it instantly reminds us that CGI animation isn’t just used to raze cities. Computer animation, with the help of motion-capture technology and accomplished actors, can effectively portray nuance, feeling and emotion.

What the “Dawn” SFX crew has done is nothing short of astounding.

“Dawn” takes place years after the initial remake, “Rise of the Planet of the Apes.”

The Herald Journal, Logan, Utah, Friday, July 11, 2014

I’m getting to the point where I don’t ask anyone to do anything, anytime, anymore because everyone is too busy all the time.

Because I have the time to ask them if they have time, it only makes it appear that I must not be busy enough. On my more paranoid days, I start believing that “too busy” is just the new semi-polite way of saying “no.”

We have probably become too passive and non-confrontational to just say that we don’t want to do this or that. Alleging to being busy gives us an excuse to avoid almost anything. I have just enough time to write down a few of my favorite euphemisms for being busy.

Busy as a bee: I’m not sure that bees are so much busy as they are industrious, obsessivecompulsives like beavers. They are singleminded in their building endeavors, oblivious to what is going on around them. However, when they are not busy, they are completely dormant.

Come to think of it, I know some people like this.

Too much on my plate: This one is just silly because you are never given any indication of the size of the plate or the palatability of the contents. Even a small paper plate full

of bovine fecal matter would be a bad thing.

Conversely, a Las Vegas buffet plate full of all your favorite state-fairinspired fried foods could be too much of a good thing. And, of course, “too much on my plate” always begs the question, “Are you actually eating anything off that plate, or are you just keeping it full and snacking on the side so that you don’t have to take anything else on?”

I’ve always suspected the full plate is just there for display purposes.

My calendar is full: Well, the calendar excuse seems to me another type of compulsion that makes people think that if one of the squares on their electronic or paper calendar

I’m overbooked: When airlines overbook, they ask if anyone wants to surrender their seat in exchange for a cash reward. Perhaps you should try this when you get overbooked. Ask some of your relatives and coworkers to go away for $20 and the next available time slot.

Swamped: I have no idea where that one came from. It must be some sort of seafaring thing meaning that ship you are on can no longer move.

If that is the case, then

swamped should be more synonymous with catatonic or frozen. I sometimes experience writers’ swamped-ness.

Harried: I like this one because it sounds so genteel; you probably can’t say it in your head without hearing a British accent that sounds like the Geico gecko. “I’d love to help you out, but I’m rather harried at the moment, could we reschedule in a fortnight?”

How about never?

Does that work for you?

Snarky and to the point.

Books A teen in flight from a nuclear meltdown Ann Levin Associated Press

Wiser than the adults around her yet convinced she’s a hopeless loser, Emily Shepard is a literary descendant of Holden Caulfield.

Like J.D. Salinger’s famous teenage misfit, Emily relates her harrowing story of escape and survival from within the confines of a mental institution, where she’s being treated for anti-social behavior and self-mutilation.

Unlike Holden, who went AWOL from his fancy prep school and wandered around New York City for a few days, excoriating phonies, the resourceful heroine of Chris Bohjalian’s “Close Your Eyes, Hold Hands” is on the run from a full-blown nuclear disaster.

Life

Bohjalian models the industrial accident at the center of the novel on the catastrophic meltdown at Japan’s Fukushima Dai-ichi power plant in March 2011. Emily’s parents, who work at the fictional plant in Vermont’s rural Northeast Kingdom, are both killed in the explosion.

Emily, who’s 16 at the time, is evacuated from the contaminated zone

with her schoolmates but flees to Burlington, some 80 miles to the southwest, when locals and the media start blaming her dad, a plant engineer previously disciplined for drinking, for the disaster. It turns out both her parents were alcoholics, partly explaining, at least in her mind, why even before the calamity, she was one messed-up kid.

For a time Emily lives in a teen shelter, then she moves on to a squalid apartment filled with other runaways and druggies and presided over by a latter-day Fagin, who forces the girls into prostitution and makes the boys steal. Later, living on the streets in Burlington’s frigid winter, she befriends a 9-year-old homeless boy and builds them an igloo out of black plastic garbage bags filled with wet leaves.

Eventually Emily makes her way back to her family’s abandoned McMansion in the contaminated woods near the plant to search for her beloved dog and to make peace with the memory of her basically decent but flawed parents.

Bohjalian delivers a thoroughly engrossing and poignant comingof-age story set against a nightmarish backdrop as real as yesterday’s headlines from Fukushima and Chernobyl.

And in Emily he’s created a remarkable and complicated teenager, a passionate, intelligent girl equally capable of cutting herself with a razor blade and quoting Emily Dickinson, then explaining it all to us in a wry, honest voice as distinctive as Holden Caulfield’s.

In a season seemingly dedicated to material lighter than its usual fare, the only truly operatic offering by the Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre this summer is “Vanessa.”

The English-language opera by Samuel Barber and Gian-Carlo Menotti opened Wednesday night at the Ellen Eccles Theatre.

Although “Vanessa” is considered a classic example of American opera, its setting, plot and music are still solidly rooted in European gothic themes. The opera is disturbingly melancholy, and director Daniel Helfgot’s strictly

traditional staging gives this production an appropriately claustrophobic aura of impending doom.

Like any performance piece, “Vanessa” has its strengths and weak-

nesses. On the plus side, the opera’s score is beautifully lyrical in some places and breathtaking in others, although Barber’s uneven composition occasionally descends into melodramatic musical passages better suited to 1950s movie sound tracks. Menotti’s libretto, on the other hand, is hard to swallow even when viewed as opera of the variety usually sponsored by soap manufacturers.

Despite those shortcomings, this production is redeemed by its talented cast and the superb orchestral direction of conductor Barbara Day Turner.

“A Whole Lotta Fussin’ Over Nothin’” was written by Wendi Hassan, now a member of the Utah Arts Council, with music by Marianne Sidwell and Rebecca Hainsworth, both Utah veterans to composing music for theater. Award-winning director David Sidwell, along with the enigmatic Apria Martin, take the helm again this year for another show. Marianne Sidwell, a music specialist from Utah Festival Opera and Musical Theatre, also serves as music director. The talented Marissa Olson adds her particular flair as choreographer.

The production is based on Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing,” and features the familiar lovers, Ben and Bea, who can’t help but verbally

Festival reunion planned

Rock Continued from Page 8 The series resumed last summer with an appearance by rock songstress Pat Benatar, who brought in about 2,500 fans.

“People really thought REO Speedwagon was very entertaining, compared to Pat Benatar, who just came to do a show and leave,” Zilles said. “REO was there for the people, and instead of doing the set they had planned, they liked the crowd so much that they played even longer.

“This was the first time they’ve ever been to Logan, so I’m glad they liked us.”

In addition to playing hits dating from the early 1970s to the mid-’80s, REO played a new song entitled “Whipping Boy.” The group played the tune for the first time just two days earlier in San Diego, and the Cruise-In crowd seemed to enjoy “Whipping Boy” just about as much as the group’s more familiar songs.

“We heard them play it at a sound check in Toronto five weeks ago,” Wilson noted. “They were working through the chords and everything. I think it turned out great.”

Wilson said his love for all things REO dates back to a performance by the band on Burt Sugarman’s “The Midnight Special.”

“They played ‘Roll with the Changes,” and I just fell in love with the group,” he proclaimed. “Then I saw

spar with one another. It perhaps can’t get any more hurtful when their friends devise a trick to make them fall in love with each other. A second love story takes place in the story featuring Heroweena and Clyde, whose nuptials are nefariously ruined by the delightful villain of the play, Singin’ Jenny.

“Some may think that Shakespeare is rolling in his grave,” explained David Sidwell, director of the production. “But having studied and taught Shakespeare for many years, I think he is giving us an ethereal ‘thumbs up!’ He was, after all, a writer of comedies, and think we can rely on his wit and wisdom to approve of our Wild West version of his comic masterpiece.”

Cronin is all smiles near the end of the REO Speedwagon concert on July 4.

them for the first time in 1979 at the Los Angeles Forum.”

When asked how a band that dates back more than four decades has managed to endure in the music business, Wilson said, “I think it’s the music. It’s definitely the songs, and they’ve always been great to the fans

and always given the fans a great show. Any time I’ve seen them at a festival, they always steal the show.

“REO Speedwagon might say that they’re ‘The Self-Annointed Kings of Classic Rock,’ but it’s more than selfproclaimed. They always steal the show when they play.”

A reunion is being planned for anyone that was ever involved in the Festival of the American West pageant, “The West: America’s Odyssey.”

We are seeking all cast and crew members, whether they were singers, actors, dancers, Native American performers, stage crew, production, multi-media crew, on-set horse wranglers, etc.

If you participated in any way with the pageant portion of the Festival of the American West when it was at the USU Spectrum or at the American West Heritage Center, we want to hear from you.

And better yet, see you at this reunion.

The reunion will begin at 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 2, in Paradise.

For more information and to keep updated with the plans, please visit our Facebook page at “Festival of the American West: The West, America’s Odyssey” and join the event section there, or send a message to fawpageant@gmail.com to be updated via email, or call Laurie at 232-6676.

Please indicate what year(s) you participated, and what role you had in the production. We are really looking forward to connecting with all of our old friends.
