FROM THE EDITOR It’s actually been about a year, but it really doesn’t seem near that long ago that I was watching the broadcast of the 65th Primetime Emmys as Robin Williams delivered a very heartfelt tribute to one of his comedic idols, Jonathan Winters, who had passed away about five months earlier at the age of 87. Even more surreal, it will now be Robin Williams himself who will be memorialized at the 66th Emmys on Aug. 25. Williams’ death on Monday was a complete shocker, especially for someone such as myself who basically feels like I grew up with the man. I watched “Mork & Mindy” when I was kid — although I
have to admit that it was mostly because Pam Dawber was one of my first crushes — and I can still remember actually being tempted to ask my mom if I could have rainbow suspenders. After “Mork & Mindy” came a long list of films, some funny and some serious, and many of which have been celebrated this week following Williams’ death. On the serious side, I feel that “Insomnia” with Al Pacino, was one of his best, often-overlooked performances, while he made a lot of movies (“Mrs. Doubtfire,” “Jumanji,” “RV” and “Old Dogs,” etc.) that might not have produced Oscarwinning material like “Good Will Hunting,” but were wonderful to share with my young daughter (who already loved “Aladdin” and “Happy Feet”) as she got older. While I never met Williams, my wife
and I came close. He checked out of the hotel in Scottsdale were we spent our honeymoon just before we got there, which led me to joke that it was probably for the best that we missed him since I didn’t really want to see the notoriously hairy man getting out of the pool just before I got in. But in reality, I was quite disappointed. Robin Williams always seemed like one of the most accessible, fun-loving celebrities you could ever encounter. And since his death, friends, family and fans have done nothing but reiterate that again and again as a fact. While “rest in peace” is probably the right thing to say here, for some reason, “nanu nanu” — which is apparently kind of like “Aloha” in Orkan — seems more appropriate. — Jeff Hunter
Third time is not the charm ‘Expendables’
sequel feels a little tired By Aaron Peck Cache movie critic

The first “Expendables” movie was passable fun. A quick, dirty trip back to the action movies of yesteryear. It didn’t make a whole lot of sense, but it had a lot of guys we were fond of in the ’80s and ’90s who we’d missed. By the time the second movie rolled around, the idea of gathering as many grizzled bygone action stars as you could into the same movie was already stale. Even adding ridiculous cameos from legendary actors like Chuck Norris couldn’t help pull “Expendables 2” out of the doldrums. Now we find ourselves facing directly down the barrel of a third “Expendables,” and boy, it ain’t pretty. “Expendables 3” is so wrapped up in its own nonsense that it doesn’t ever know what it’s trying to accomplish. It’s an incomprehensible visual and auditory barrage, bordering on sensory overload. A constant stream of bloodless violence that typifies the inherent problem with the MPAA’s archaic ratings system. Here’s a movie where dozens, possibly close to a hundred, people are shot, stabbed, crushed, exploded and beat to death. And yet, “Expendables 3” walks away with a PG-13 rating because it

Veteran action stars Sylvester Stallone, left, and Arnold Schwarzenegger headline an all-star cast in “Expendables 3.”
★ ‘The Expendables 3’ Director // Patrick Hughes Starring // Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Antonio Banderas, Wesley Snipes, Mel Gibson, Harrison Ford, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Terry Crews, Ronda Rousey, Jet Li, Dolph Lundgren, Kelsey Grammer, Randy Couture, Kellan Lutz, Glen Powell, Victor Ortiz, Robert Davi Rated // PG-13 for violence including intense sustained gun battles and fight scenes, and for language
doesn’t actually show any blood, guts, or, you know, the actual ramifications of such ultra-violence. It’d be a head scratcher if it wasn’t so predictably the MPAA modus operandi. Adding to the crushing
predictability is the story of “Expendables 3,” which has promise, but squanders it in search of blurry gunfights and ear-splitting explosions. Barney (Sylvester Stallone) assembles his team. A chaotic action sequence
ensues. They meet the bad guy, Stonebanks (Mel Gibson). Something goes wrong. Barney fears his team is too old to handle the situation. He opts for a younger squad in his rematch with Stonebanks. And, you probably can guess where it goes from there, right? It’s not really that hard to put these pieces together. There’s a moment where you think that “The Expendables 3” is actually going to be a deeper-than-expected comment on age, and wonder if maybe these guys really can do this forever.

Her songs move from heartfelt to humorous and from scrappy to sensual, and all the while the stories she tells in between them are as entertaining as the songs themselves.

‘Ninja Turtles’ deliver some box-office power LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” sliced off $65 million at the weekend box office. Paramount Pictures’ comic-book adaptation featuring Megan Fox alongside computergenerated renditions of the pizza-eating, sewerdwelling superheroes lunged into first place in its debut weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday. The action film’s totally tubular result prompted the studio to announce plans Sunday for a sequel set for June 3, 2016. Megan Colligan, Paramount’s head of domestic marketing and
distribution, said the success of the “Ninja Turtles” reboot was mostly derived from a pair of distinctly different audiences: men who fondly remembered the 1980s and ‘90s franchise that spawned a cartoon series, toy line and a live-action film trilogy, and youngsters familiar with a newer Nickelodeon animated TV series. “It’s odd when you have 25- to 35-year-olds and then 7- to 12-yearolds really excited about the same film,” Colligan said. “The teen audience was actually the one that wasn’t as familiar with the property, so we put a lot of focus on teens.

think we did a great job of getting them out there to see the film, which is so fun, refreshing and unique.” “Ninja Turtles,” which also stars Will Arnett and William Fichtner, made an additional $28.7 million in international markets such as Russia, Mexico, Malaysia, Singapore and Taiwan, bringing its worldwide total to a radical $93.7 million. Marvel Studios’ “Guardians of the Galaxy” slid into second place in its second weekend with $41.5 million, bringing its total domestic haul to $175.9 million. The total

The memory scenes in “The Giver” capture some of that energy. The world in motion. The human condition. “The Giver” travels a road that isn’t usually traveled in the dystopian teen drama. Director Philip Noyce chooses to ground the story much more in the source material. This isn’t written to become a blockbuster movie with astounding special effects. It’s an introspective journey. A somewhat satisfying one at that. There are some major plot holes that pop up toward the end, which are honestly just too big to ignore. Yet, there’s a current of emotion bubbling under the surface of “The Giver” that almost allows you to forgive the movie’s amazing leaps in logic. Almost. UNIVERSITY 6 1225 North 200 East, Logan

The Reel Place Aaron Peck
Based off of Lois Lowry’s 1993 novel, “The Giver” offers up a dystopian world view, which quietly differs from the teenage dystopian stories we’re used to seeing in theaters. “The Giver” isn’t interested in bloody revolts and overcooked teenage love triangles. It’s got a message to get across, which it does surprisingly well. Sure, it can be ham-fisted at times. And some major plot holes crop up that can’t really be explained. But there’s a braveness here that should be commended. Like so many dystopian stories, we begin with a society created after some kind of unknown cataclysmic event. We’re told that this current utopian society was built from the ruins. We’re left to assume that the humans of the past were wiped out by war, nukes or something else entirely. Humans now live in an artificially maintained society. A society which assigns occupations to each person when they come of age. A society which assigns babies to family units. Archaic concepts like love have no place here. The society is constructed so the people can survive and flourish under a strict set of guidelines. Differences have been erased as much as possible, including race, religion, creeds and all notions of

‘The Giver’ is an ‘introspective journey’
• FLYING OBJECTS • ARE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR A couple of Cache Valley artists will soon have their work displayed on the streets of downtown Salt Lake City.
Michael J. Bingham and Jerry Fuhriman have been chosen to participate in a Salt Lake City Arts Council project entitled Flying Objects 4.0. Bingham is sculpting an astronaut and Fuhriman’s design is a flying object, which he describes as having “more of a saucer appearance to it.” They said their artwork will be installed in the fall. Bingham, who teaches art classes at Mountain Crest High School and has been a professional artist for 30 years, first participated in Flying Objects 10 years ago. He designed a life-sized cow with a jet pack flying over the moon. This time, the theme of “flying objects” led him to think of space, gravity and weightlessness. “I’ll admit, I had just not too far back seen the movie ‘Gravity’ and was really intrigued with that, with just the idea of weightlessness, but that’s always been interesting to me … I’ve always been fascinated by astronauts,” he said. Standing, the astronaut is 10 and a half feet tall. The sculpture, however, will not feature the astronaut standing on two feet — the lowest point of the sculpture is the astronaut’s head, with his feet extending upward. “To make something 400 pounds look like it’s floating has been a really big challenge,” Bingham said. Bingham said the sculpture — made with rebar, metal, recycled items and more — will be placed on a 15-foot pole when it is installed. The sculptures also have to be safe. People will be walking underneath and it needs to be able to with-

stand weather conditions, Bingham explained. The astronaut will have a mirrored face mask that offers a 360-degree reflection. The design includes a space capsule that will have lights (charged by solar panels) that flash at night, Bingham said. He also wants the artwork to be interactive. Bingham would like to have a camera that is connected to the Internet in one of the astronaut’s hands. “At least this is the plan if I can make it technically work,” he said. “I want it so you can access the camera that the astronaut’s holding and take a video of yourself and your friends or take your own picture like through his camera,” Bingham explained, also mentioning the possibility of having the camera function as a webcam. Fuhriman’s sculpture of a flying object is made of stainless-steel scrap metal. Fuhriman works with Arthur
Taylor on these projects — Fuhriman does the design work and Taylor, who has a background in metal fabrication, is the structural and technical adviser. The sculpture is about 7 feet long, Fuhriman said. Weighing in at a couple hundred pounds, this flying object is the lightest one Fuhriman and Taylor have built. “It just has a nice feel to it, and I think the parts are all nicely interrelated,” he said. Fuhriman said there is a wind measuring device on top that spins in the wind. “There are solar lights underneath that so at night, when the wind blows it, it’ll flash these lights as it spins,” he said. Fuhriman says when he submits his proposal for Flying Objects, his sculpture is already “99 percent finished.” “I’m an artist and so I don’t really think in a very linear fashion,” he said, explaining that he has a pile of
scrap metal — mainly from the dairy industry — from which he works one piece at a time: “I pick up a piece and say ‘what would look nice with that piece,’ then I put something with that, then I say, ‘oh, what would look nice with those two pieces and how can I make this begin to look like something that’s a flying object,’ so I just pick and choose the metal and weld it as I go.” This is the third sculpture Fuhriman and Taylor have created for the Flying Objects projects. “We just try and make it so that it attracts attention, is fun to look at and give people something to talk about,” Fuhriman says. Fuhriman was a professor at Utah State University for 25 years. He retired 17 years ago. His works have included watercolor paintings, oil paintings, jewelry and sculptures. Bingham said the purpose of the Flying Objects project is to “bring more … accessible art into downtown Salt Lake.” Fuhriman said these sculptures are on display anywhere from 18 months to two years. “It’s fun to have both of our works down in Salt Lake,” Fuhriman said of his and Bingham’s participation in Flying Objects. Bingham and Fuhriman are working on other projects right now, too. For Bingham, the school year begins soon. He is also going to give a presentation on Carl Bloch’s painting “Sermon on the Mount” at 7 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 24, at the North Logan Stake Center. The public is invited. Fuhriman said his work in the last month has focused on silver and turquoise jewelry. He also does watercolor workshops.

Looking ‘Through the Eye of the Needle’ Cornish native delivers a bilingual book of poetry By Jeff Hunter Cache Magazine editor
Glade A. Myler’s first book of poetry took a little time to come together. A native of Cornish who has lived in Nevada since 1982, Myler says he first started writing poetry in high school, then got a little bit more serious about it while attending college at Utah State University. In between, Myler also served a Spanishspeaking LDS mission to California, which gave him another language in which to produce his poetry. By the time it came to select poems for “Through the Eye of the Needle,” Myler had more than 465 to choose from — many of which were originally
written in Spanish. “I like to think this is a unique thing because they’re aren’t many poets — in fact, there aren’t any others that I know of — that write in more than one language,” Myler says. “If there have been, there haven’t been any that published anything that I know of.” Some of the more than
“But there’s also one that’s in Portuguese,” he points out. Myler, in fact, speaks English, Spanish, Portuguese and German, and says that he can read — but not speak fluently — French and Italian. But after graduating from USU with a bachelor’s degree in Spanish and minors in English, German and music, Myler was a year into a doctorate program in Spanish at Indiana University when he decided it was time to take his career path on a major detour. “I decided I wanted to be an attorney, instead,” he says. Myler ended up getting a Juris Doctor from BYU and then spent more than 30 years as an attorney Photo courtesy of Glade A.

will be titled, “Perspectives.” He said he’s not certain, yet, but will probably self-publish that collection, as well, through Trafford Publishing in Bloomington, Indiana. “I initially talked to Brad Hall at (USU’s) Department of Languages, and he suggested that I talk to the University of New Mexico Press about publish my first book,” Myler recalls. “But their process is so long, and I’m 67 years old. Fortunately, the day after I decided everything was ready, up popped this ad on the computer that said, ‘Do you have a book to publish?’” The cover photo of “Through the Eye of the Needle” was taken my Myler’s wife, Carolyn, while on the couple was on vacation in Kauai. He says she’s already shot the cover for his next book, as well. That also came from a trip and a visit to Millennium Park in Chicago, where the couple encountered the “Cloud Gate” sculpture by Anish Kapoor. “They call it ‘The Big Bean’ because it’s shaped like a bean, and it’s stainless steel and reflects everything,” Myler explains. “She went all the way around it to take photos, and it reflects the skyscrapers and everything around. “So, I thought that would be the good cover for the book, and I could call it ‘Perspectives’ because some of my poems have a different perspective on things.” ———— “Through the Eye of the Needle” is available online in ebook, hardcover and softcover formats at trafford.com, as well as at Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com.

The most entertaining aspect of the movie is Antonio Banderas who, more or less, reprises his role as Puss ‘n Boots, only this time it’s live-action. He’s manic, hilarious, and the only one on screen with any sort of humanism. “Expendables 3” is a stormy sea of gruff voices growling at each other. Mindless battles with idiotic enemies.

Books ‘Magician’s Land’ closes out maturing trilogy By Henry C. Jackson Associated Press
Quentin Coldwater — a moody, man-child magician — is finally growing up. And just in time to save everything, mostly, that’s ever mattered to him. “The Magician’s Land” is the final book in the three-book “Magicians” trilogy, a genre-busting adult fantasy series. The books follow Quentin and an ever-growing cast of magicians, magicians’ hangers-on, magical creatures, gods, bookkeepers, talking birds, knights, kings and queens and the like through their school days, their angst, their relationships, their magical quests and across their magical lands. And to outskirts of Newark Liberty International Airport. All in the name of magic. The final installment doesn’t disappoint, bringing Quentin’s saga
to a satisfying, deeply felt conclusion. For those who haven’t read the first two books, it’s best to stop here. Read “The Magicians” and “The Magician King” both for the welcome backfill of information and the sheer pleasure of their adventures. You won’t regret it. Everything to follow — the magical buttons, the flying carpets, the talking animals, the confounding and mysterious Chatwin family — will make so much more sense after absorbing the mythos. Which is not to say
“Land” won’t stand on its own merits. It presents themes and allusions that have evolved and improved across three books, much like their chief protagonist. Beginning with “The Magicians,” author Lev Grossman sought to write something that seemed contradictory: an adult (read: literary) novel about magic. Take some elements of Harry Potter or “The Chronicles of Narnia,” to which this book pays deep homage, and mix in the traditional coming-of-age novel. Weave in real elements of loss and mourning and human emotion. With a wag of the wand, Grossman creates whole worlds and a genre more or less to himself. “Land” begins where “The Magician King” left off: Quentin is in exile, shorn of his magical title and abruptly booted from Fillory by a feckless god. The experience has pushed him back to his alma mater, Brakebills, where he is serving as an
adjunct professor until something goes wrong. That leads him to a dreary hotel in New Jersey. There, a motley crew that includes the intriguing new character Plum, a former student of Quentin’s, is plotting a magical heist. The wellrendered set piece that follows — delivered in a breathless, cinematic style — puts the novel in motion and starts a series of events that will bring Quentin into contact with everyone and everything that have ever mattered to him. Fans of the first two books will enjoy the winks and nods to the earlier story, which mostly manage to seem organic and purposeful, not nostalgic. The overall effect is to force Quentin to reckon with who he is and the magician he has become. Grossman has written a magical novel. But that doesn’t mean it’s not mature. Throughout this series, and particularly with the final installment, he hits on big themes:
new york times best-sellers HARDCOVER FICTION 1. “Big Little Lies” by Liane Moriarty 2. “The Heist” by Daniel Silva 3. “Tom Clancy: Support and Defend” by Mark Greaney 4. “The Book of Life” by Deborah Harkness 5. “The Goldfinch” by Donna Tartt HARDCOVER NONFICTION 1. “America” by Dinesh D’Souza 2. “A Spy Among Friends” by Ben Macintyre 3. “One Nation” by Ben Carson with Candy Carson 4. “Unbroken” by Laura Hillenbrand 5. “Hard Choices” by Hillary Rodham Clinton PAPERBACK TRADE FICTION 1. “Gone Girl” by Gillian Flynn 2. “Fifty Shades of Grey” by E.L. James 3. “Orphan Train” by Christina Baker Kline 4. “Fifty Shades Darker” by E.L. James 5. “The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho
There are meditations on loss, on growing up, the nature of friendship and people’s ceaseless, and often fruitless, desire to fix and control things. Through Quentin, Grossman offers his own take:
that much of growing up is learning what you can fix and accepting what you can’t. Having the courage to do the former and the intelligence to absorb the latter defines Quentin’s path.
A family is tested in ‘No Safe House’ By Jeff Ayers Associated Press
A family’s past continues to haunt Terry Archer and his family as they find it impossible to move on with their lives in Linwood Barclay’s latest suburban thriller, “No Safe House.” Cynthia Archer still remembers a tragedy in her upbringing, and she promised herself that her husband, Terry, and
her daughter, Grace, would be trauma-free. That hope was shattered seven years ago when her past came back with a vengeance. Now the three of them are trying to go on with their lives. Grace has become a teenager and the angst associated with that has created a rift between mother and daughter. In a moment of anger, Cynthia makes a mistake, and the guilt forces her to move out.
One night, Grace decides to be a bit dangerous with an older boy, and the events that unfold seem to indicate she shot someone. While a father searches for answers, he also tries to keep what happened from his wife, whom he desperately wants back in his life. He knows that if she learns about what happened with Grace, Cynthia will be gone forever. While this is a sequel
to “No Time for Goodbye,” familiarity with that earlier thriller isn’t required to enjoy this look at a family trying to maintain cohesion. What makes the story work is the depth and strength of the Archer family and their love for each other that oozes off the page while bad things continue to happen around them. Parents will be hugging their kids after turning the last page.

Folk music magazine Sing Out claimed her songs “rival the likes of Guy Clark or Ian Tyson in their plainspoken, memoir-like quality, rich with personalized images and a resonant point-ofview.” Nygaard has performed at over 200 fairs and festivals in the United States and in nine

Nelson to share new Canyon Country book Utah history buffs, set aside the evening of Thursday, Aug. 21, to enjoy a presentation by former Cache Valley resident Paul T. Nelson, who will share excerpts from his new book, “Wrecks of Human Ambition: A History of Utah Canyon Country to 1936.” The event begins at 7 p.m. at Crumb Brothers Artisan Bread, 291 S. 300 West. Light refreshments will be served. Books will be available for purchase. Nelson first “walked the talk” in the Canyon Country as a hiker, river guide and avid rock climber. His book was completed from his doctoral research in American history from Southern Methodist University in Texas. A press release from the publisher (University of Utah Press, April 2014) states that the book “fills a gap” in existing histories of the area by focusing on the confrontation between Euro-Christian ideals and the Canyon Country’s challenging landscape. Nelson provides in clear, engaging language the most detailed examination yet published of colonial Spain’s encounter with the region, and also lays out some of Mormonism’s rare failures in settling the arid West. “Nelson chronicles how generations of missionaries, explorers, traders, settlers, gold seekers and pre-modern tourists approached, perceived, passed

Readers will come away with fresh insights into old tales, having themselves experienced the canyon country with new eyes. A skilled storyteller, Nelson has produced a fine work of western American history,” states Jedediah S. Rogers, author of “Roads in the Wilderness.” “The book makes a significant contribution. With the historical landscape as seemingly jumbled and twisted as the physical landscape of the area, the book presents a coherent, easy-to-follow summary of the area’s history,” says Kent Powell, editor of “Nels Anderson’s World War I Diary.”
