FROM THE EDITOR While the organizers of the Pat Benatar concert at the Cache Valley Cruise-In were hopeful that the famous female rock vocalist and her husband/guitarist Neil Girlado would agree to some meetand-greet events prior to her show on July 5, Benatar decided against having any one-on-one interaction with Cache Valley fans.

With a lone exception.

“Neil and Pat are kind of private people,” noted Cruise-In concert director Mary Zilles. “Tana was the only one they ended up meeting with.”

“Tana” is Tana Worthen — a Cache

Valley resident who has been battling breast cancer for the past five years.

Knowing that she was a big Benatar fan, Worthen’s husband, Gary, got in line at Macey’s the first day concert tickets were available and ended up scoring front-row seats.

But he had hopes for more.

Starting just a few days before the show at the Cache Fairgrounds, Gary started talking to relatives and friends about trying to get Tana backstage.

Thanks to Zilles and others, they managed to get the OK from Benatar, and Tana and her 12-year-old daughter, Jasmin, ended up spending time with the ’80s diva before she took the stage (see photo on page 13).

“It was really emotional backstage,” Zilles said. “Pat and Neil were so sweet to

Tana and her daughter. They signed a few things for her and posed for photos with her.

“I knew they would be nice to her, but they were really sweet above and beyond what I thought they would be.”

The experience clearly meant a lot to Tana Worthen and her family. Her cancer has now spread to her bones, and she had to have fluid drained from her lungs before even attending the concert last week.

“It’s something she’ll be battling until the day she dies,” Gary said of his wife’s condition.

“And being able to meet Pat Benatar and sit on the front row, well, that was just one of those once-in-a-lifetime deals.”

Pat Benatar fans didn’t get any “Fire and Ice” during the rock goddess’ performance July 5, but they did get some lightning and whole lot of rain.

Fortunately the skies above the Cache Fairgrounds cleared up just in time, allowing Benatar and her band — headed up by husband and lead guitarist Neil Giraldo — to take the stage just a few minutes later than scheduled.

“How are you doing?” Benatar asked the crowd early in the show.

“This has been the craziest day. …

But thanks to inviting us to your party. Where are we anyway?”

Benatar soon said she was just kidding, but considering that she was in the middle of a tour that had just passed through Nebraska, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Colorado in the span of four days before stopping off in Sandy on July 3, no one could blame her if she wasn’t exactly sure what state she was in.

Now 60 years old, Benatar opened her 13-song set with “All Fired Up,” “Invincible,” “So Sincere,” “Precious Time” and “Promises in the Dark” before taking a brief break.

“This is the part of the show where we sit down because we’re old,” Giraldo said with a chuckle.

Creating an opportunity for the road crew to dry off some equipment still wet from the pre-show thunderstorm, Giraldo also shared See SHOT on Page 13

PET OF THE WEEK Available for adoption

Female rock vocalist Pat Benatar sings at the Cache Fairgrounds on July 5.

Pet: Mouse From: Cache Humane Society Why he’s so lovable: I am called Mouse, but don’t be thinking I’m the outdoors, hunter type.

In fact, I’m declawed and should never be outside without supervision. I’m a lazy lap cat, somewhat addicted to catnip, and I want attention all of the time. I’m not a fan of loud noises or sudden movement, so I wouldn’t do well in a home with toddler-age children. Older children are just fine. I hope you have room in your heart for me because I’m going to need quite a bit of it.

Yes, I’m that affectionate. Call the Cache Humane Society at 792-3920.

all mixed up ‘Woman in Black’ comes to the Lyric The Old Lyric Repertory Company at Utah State University presents the final show of the season, “The Woman in Black,” opening Wednesday, July 17, at the Caine Lyric Theatre, 28 W. Center Street.

“This intense, suspenseful thriller is perfect for the theater’s 100th anniversary,” says Dennis Hassan, artistic director of the OLRC and professor in the Caine College of the Arts at USU. “This show takes place in a Victorian-style

theater inhabited by a ghost and the Caine Lyric Theatre is perfect for that setting.”

Celebrating 23 years on London’s West End, the play combines the power and intensity of live theater with a cinematic quality inspired by film noirs. This is the tale of Arthur Kipps and his experiences in a small, coastal English town with a dark secret.

“This is a classic, gothic ghost story with unexpected twists that draw you in and

Festival Opera takes the stage New More than 250 musicians, performers and crew members from renowned stages across the nation have been working for months to perfect their performances for Utah Festival Opera and Musical Theatre’s 21st season.

The culmination of their efforts were on display Wednesday night with the premiere of Richard Wagner’s “The Flying Dutchman,” the Nordic tale of a ghostly pirate ship, curses and treasure. The long-awaited “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” by legendary Andrew Lloyd Webber opened July 11; Verdi’s “Otello,” the composer’s operatic interpretation of Shakespeare’s classic play “Othello,” begins today; and the Broadway classic “Fiddler on the Roof,” starring founding director Michael Ballam as Tevye, opens Saturday.

Encore of ‘Anne of Green Gables’ added to aid cast member’s family Cache Theatre Company’s production of “Anne of Green Gables” has closed, but the theater troupe will be presenting an encore performance of this delightful show at 7:30 p.m. Monday, July 15, at the Logan High School theater as a benefit for a cast member’s family who lost their home in a fire last weekend.

“We received the phone call Sunday afternoon,” explains David Sidwell, director of the production and executive director of Cache Theatre Company. “We went right over, but there was nothing to be done but watch the

firemen clean up.”

The day following the final performance of “Anne of Green Gables, a blaze had destroyed the home of one of its cast members.

“It was actually my wife Marianne’s idea,” Sidwell says of adding an additional show. “The entire cast — we are like family now. We’ve worked on this show for months, and to have this happen, well, she sprang into action, calling the cast and suggesting we do a special encore performance of ‘Anne’ to raise money for the family. It’s quite a sacrifice of time and energy, and even money, but it’s fun to work

together again for a good cause.”

Logan High School’s Band Program also joined the effort, providing space and effort to help the production.

All proceeds from the performance will go to the family. Please pass the word about this benefit.

The family was renting the home but they lost most of their belongings, and they are a single-parent household with some special challenges. This performance is presented in partnership with the Logan High Band Program. Admission is $10. Visit www.cachetheat re.com for more information.

‘Grown Ups 2’ no easier to watch than original LOS ANGELES (AP) — It would be dishonest to call “Grown Ups 2” the most repellent high-profile comedy in recent memory. But that’s largely because few moviegoers have memories kind enough to have already erased 2010’s “Grown Ups” — which offered almost every loathsome quality of this installment, plus Rob Schneider.

Adam Sandler returns as Lenny, a Hollywood player who since the first film has moved his family to his rural hometown, where the kids can bike to school and Dad gets plenty of Guy Time with pals Eric (Kevin James), Kurt (Chris Rock), and Marcus (David Spade). Happily, this film’s conception of male friendship is less reliant on insults and abuse than its

predecessor, and doesn’t need to paint the men’s wives as shrews in order to give the motley bunch something in common.

Which is not at all to say that the humor has matured.

The opening scene, in which a deer wanders into Lenny’s house, offers two separate occasions in which the beast rears back on hind legs to urinate on someone; the second goes on long enough to suggest someone has a fetish to indulge. Throughout, gags are cartoonishly broad and afforded so little time for setup and delivery we seem to be watching less a story than a catalog of tossed-out material.

Set on the last day of school, the script follows as Lenny commandeers his kids’ bus (the driver, played by Nick

Soon the fellows are trying to make old bodies do what young ones never did. Visiting a favorite swimming hole so Eric can dive off the cliff he always feared, they cross paths with a band of frat boys (led by Taylor Lautner), whose collective loutishness makes Sandler & Co. look like knights of the Round Table.

Most of the summer blockbusters this year can be tied together with a single idea: Less emotions, more explosions.

Well, I guess that’s two ideas, but they work in tandem. From “Man of Steel” to “The Lone Ranger” filmmakers and studios have opted for big budget movies that offer little humanism.

In its stead is a heaping helping of computer-generated destruction to keep your eyeballs busy until the credits roll. The mistake is thinking that these two things — emotion and explosions — can’t coexist. “Pacific Rim” shows they can.

“Pacific Rim” director Guillermo del Toro has already solidified himself as an original storyteller who is fascinated with intricately woven stories (“Pan’s Labyrinth”), rich characters (“Hellboy”) and outlandishly awesome visual design (“Hellboy 2”). If anyone should be directing a movie about giant robots attacking giant monsters it should be this guy, because there’s an infinitely better possibility that he’ll be able

LIKIN’ HIKIN’ LADIES Steam Mill Lake among the many destinations for local group

To say Jolene Mortensen loves

the outdoors would be an understatement. The same goes for Janice Couch, Nan Schmidt and Laurie Fifield, just to name a few others.

These women and several of their other close friends relish any chance they get to be outdoors and up in the mountains. That is a big reason why they hike and snowshoe virtually every Friday of the year.

Meet the Likin’ Hikin’ Ladies, a group formed in 2009 by Schmidt and JoLynn Sorensen that is still going strong —perhaps even gaining momentum as more and more women hear about it and want to join.

“I have always loved the outdoors and hiking, so that was the first thing that drew me in to the Likin’ Hikin’ Ladies, to have the opportunity to hike and learn about all the trails around us in Cache Valley. We live in such a beautiful place,” said Mortensen, who is originally from Arizona and joined the group in the summer of ’11. “But as I kept going each week I knew that it was more than being in the great outdoors. I have made many wonderful friends, and I enjoy the time we have to talk, visit and laugh — boy, do we laugh a lot — as we trek through some of the most amazing views.”

love for each other and the outdoors was too much to give up during the winter months.

“We go every Friday, pretty much rain or shine,” Schmidt said. “... We usually take two or three weeks in December off just because it’s too busy. Other than that, it’s pretty much every week. I can’t even think of a week we’ve ever canceled because of rain. We’ve changed a hike or two if it’s raining, but usually we go.

“When we started, we were just going to hike and then we just had so much fun together we decided let’s keep going in the winter. It’s been really fun for me because I’m a skier and I’ve always liked winter, but a lot of these ladies have not liked winter. In fact, they hated Above, a member of the Likin’ Hikin’ Ladies group heads up the Steam Mill Hollow winter.”

Why hide it? Go ahead and show your age left temple so that when you got close enough to someone to shake hands, each of you could see it.

Put it on every morning like makeup or a tie. This would eliminate all the subterfuge and guessing.

Since we have become more comfortable with Big Brother seeing and knowing everything about us, why not just put your age right out there? It is not as if we can’t Google everyone we meet already.

I’m getting to that age group in life where most comments on accomplishments and appearance are usually followed by “for your age (FYA).” It’s a backhanded compliment to be sure, but I don’t

expect to do anything as well or stupidly as when I was 25. We don’t have a good word for the opposite of prodigy, but maybe FYA is as good as any.

The FYA designation is relegated to the young and the old. We are constantly trying to break records for the youngest or oldest whatever, while in the horse latitudes of 25 to 50 you are pretty much expected to do good things regardless of age. In fact, if you are 25 to 35 and have not done something remarkable, you are a failure. If you are 36 to 45, you should be in the prime of your life and transitioning into your distinguished era. After that, you should

“The success of a group like this depends on having a really great leader like Nan Schmidt,” Fifield said. “She carefully studies out the hikes and plans them to fit the best time of year and the best fit for the group. If she hasn’t done a hike before, she goes earlier in the week to make sure that she knows where she is going. When we are hiking, she is always watching to make sure nobody is left behind. We really love our Nan.” How does Schmidt choose which hike the women tackle each week?

“I usually start easier in the spring and then kind of work up to more strenuous ones as the year goes on,” Schmidt

“... We do have a tradition at the end of August to go up to Oneida (north of Preston) and float the Oneida Narrows.

Three key benefits of hiking, as several ladies pointed out while making the trek to Steam Mill Lake, are exercising, socializing and the love of being out in nature.

Schmidt said spirituality is an important aspect, as well.

“If you get outdoors, there are a lot of things that are of a benefit to you,” Schmidt said.

“I used to work for a memory study at Utah State and one of the things they said to help your memory is exercise and another thing they said is to socialize. And then spirituality helps, too.

“All those things help with memory.”

While hiking, the ladies definitely enjoy lots of conversation, laughing, picture taking and quizzing each other on different types of wildflowers.

“I take more pictures than most people,” Fifield said.

“I’m usually dragging at the back because I’m snapping pictures.”

Books Doctor faces challenges in ‘Surgeon in Blue’

By Douglass K. Daniel Associated Press

Here’s what a real Washington scandal looks like: Many Union soldiers wounded at Bull Run, the Civil War’s first major battle, had to walk some 20 miles to the nation’s capital in search of medical care.

Hundreds too badly hurt remained behind, some for as long as a week, until they were carried off and treated.

Hardly any thought had been given to tending to wounded troops.

More than 1,500 soldiers seeking treatment overwhelmed Washington’s four hospitals as well as an inexperienced military medical corps.

President Abraham Lincoln was among those who watched bloodied soldiers walk the streets in search of shelter.

Newspaper accounts of their plight enraged Americans.

The military debacle in Northern Virginia in July 1861 revealed more than a fundamentally flawed and unprepared Union army, his-

torian Scott McGaugh writes. “Its medical department needed new leadership, organization, resources, and perhaps most importantly, the authority to adequately prepare, deploy and treat the wounded in battle.”

Central to the life-saving changes that followed was a military doctor who had spent more than a decade in army outposts around the country. Jonathan Letterman, a native of Canonsburg, Pa., educated at Philadelphia’s

Jefferson Medical College, knew all too well how commanders and the military bureaucracy could treat doctors with disdain and ignore their advice about hygiene and nutrition.

In “Surgeon in Blue: Jonathan Letterman, the Civil War Doctor Who Pioneered Battlefield Care,” McGaugh blends the doctor’s personal history with an examination of medical practices of the era and an overview of key Civil War battles.

McGaugh provides tell-

ing details within a concise narrative to give Letterman’s personal story the context necessary for appreciating his influence.

Bull Run did not convince all military officers that planning for the care of casualties should be part of overall battle strategy. As important to Letterman in changing perceptions was the new surgeon general, William Hammond, who had an ally to the new top Union commander, Gen. George B. McClellan. Hammond respected Letterman’s organizational skills and gave him greater and greater responsibility for determining how to anticipate and meet the needs of wounded troops.

By the time Union and Confederate forces clashed in September 1862 at Antietam Creek near Sharpsburg, Md., Letterman’s reforms were taking hold. Illness among troops had fallen after weekly baths were ordered, for example, and cases of scurvy began to recede once fresh vegetables were routinely provided.

were given more attention. Another key change: Officers were being held accountable for the health of their men.

Antietam provided evidence of the effectiveness of Letterman’s new ambulance system and the pre-battle planning in which he organized a network of hospitals using barns, farmhouses and other suitable structures.

He needed those facilities: By some estimates,

21,000 or more soldiers in blue or gray were killed or wounded.

What lay ahead for Letterman? Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville and Gettysburg — and more bureaucratic infighting.

By following Letterman from one bloody battle to another, McGaugh’s wellresearched book adds a sobering tone to the 150th anniversary of a conflict that advanced medical care at a terrible cost.

Shot Continued from Page 3 the story of how he and Benatar met in 1979.

The duo hit it off professionally and personally almost immediately, leading to a 31-year marriage, two children and a long list of Top 40 hits throughout the 1980s.

Benatar went on to deliver several more of those chartbusters with a rainbow high overhead, including “We Belong,” “Hell is for Children” and “You Better Run,” which she pointed out was the second video ever played on MTV. But while just a smattering of the 2,500-plus fans in the stands were on their feet throughout the first part of the concert, the energy and enthusiasm level reached the night’s highest level when Benatar jumped into her first Top 10 hit, “Hit Me with Your Best Shot,” and followed it up with the Grammy Award-winning “Love is a Battlefield.”

Benatar and Giraldo then briefly left the stage before returning for a three-song encore that included a couple of relatively new songs: 1993’s “Everybody Lay Down” and 1988’s “Let’s Stay Together.”

“I can’t believe it’s that time already; that went very fast,” Benatar declared.

The band then kicked into George Steinbrenner’s favorite song (at least the “Seinfeld” version) to wrap up the show. But in the middle of “Heartbreaker,” Benatar slipped in some of Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire” while Giraldo ended up adding a little of Led Zeppelin’s “Heartbreaker,” as well.

Afterwards, Cruise-

Local fan Tana Worthen and her daughter, Jasmin, spent time backstage with Benatar and Giraldo.

In concert director Mary Zilles said she thought things went “very well.”

“I talked to some of the merchandise people, and they said they couldn’t believe how much the

crowd was into it,” Zilles added. “They said the crowd at the Sandy show on Tuesday was ‘dead’ and it wasn’t a good event. They said they loved Cache Valley.”

Zilles admitted that attendance “could have been better,” but noted that Cruise-In officials already had a band in mind for next year.

While critics skewered the film, it did earn a B+ CinemaScore grade from moviegoers. But “The Lone Ranger” is nevertheless likely to be a sizeable write-down for Disney and could impact the company’s stock price when markets reopen Monday.

“Everybody beat up on ‘The Lone Ranger’ pretty hard,” said Paul Dergarabedian, analyst for boxoffice tracker Hollywood. com. “Everything was just not going in its favor.”

On the other hand, Universal made “Despicable Me 2” for the comparatively small amount of $76 million (a figure that doesn’t count a huge marketing budget). The better than expected haul (along with another $88.8 million overseas) establishes “Despicable Me,” which stars Steve Carell as a diabolical villain turned stay-at-home dad, as a new franchise for Universal and Chris Meledandri’s Illumination Entertainment, the Universal-backed animation company.

“Otello” Talk about an all-star line-up: three of the lead performers in Utah Festival’s “Otello” have sung with the New York Metropolitan Opera, and two others have strutted their stuff at the New York Opera and at Carnegie Hall. They’ll all be singing under one roof to commemorate the 200th birthday of musical titan number 2: Giuseppe Verdi.

In true opera fashion, this tale is packed with deceit, conspiracy, a love triangle and ultimately tragedy. Otello, a Venetian general, returns home from a successful military campaign to assume his governorship of Cyprus. His success abroad is quickly eclipsed by conspiracy and treachery at home. Otello finds deceit at every turn. This Verdi classic is based on the Shakespeare play “Othello” and will be sung in Italian with projected English supertitles.

That’s because del Toro gets it. He understands that the action is only as good as the audience’s ability to process its consequences. Non-stop action leads to boredom, whereas smartly paced action lets the audience breathe, take stock of the situation, understand what the characters are learning and how they’re growing.
