FROM THE EDITOR
I
visited a Buddhist center for the first time in my life last October in Virginia for a session of Prayers for World Peace, a regular program open to everyone of all religions and backgrounds. A group of us would meditate that day on the kindness of others. At the start of the meeting, a recently ordained monk named Tsondru gave a short lesson on recognizing how others help and influence our lives in even the smallest ways. He talked about how often times when we make a
meal, like breakfast, we use all sorts of ingredients including milk, eggs, fruit or cereal. And when everything is compiled, we may be proud of what we’ve made “ourselves.” “But, what about the cow?” Tsondru asked, referring to the milk. In all actuality, a breakfast, lunch or dinner is never made by just one person. Without the cow, the farmer, the pollinating insects, and even the big packaging plants and truck drivers, most of what we eat would never end up on our plates. Ever since I attended that meeting, I try to remind myself often that I would have nothing without others. That
includes the clothes I’m wearing, the roads I drive, the trails I run and even the computer I’m using to type this column and finish Cache Magazine for the week. Thinking of life in this way makes me feel thankful and connected to others who help me — most of them being strangers I will never meet. This week, Dennis Hinkamp talks politics in his column on page 11 and he brings up the same point I’m writing about here. It would be nice if we could all feel more connected, if we recognized all achievements are built upon the successes and kind actions of others — even that good ol’ milk cow. — Manette Newbold

“I like the Mrs. America program because we can have a platform, and it opens up your scope of influence when you have a crown.” – Juliet Tietjen, Mrs. Utah
PET OF THE WEEK Available for adoption
Museum presents Ute storyteller Larry Cesspooch, a Ute spiritual leader and storyteller, is the next guest at Utah State University’s Museum of Anthropology. The museum invites visitors to explore the archaeology of the Intermountain West during the day’s activities. As part of its “Saturdays at the Museum” series, the museum welcomes Cesspooch for his special presentation, “Utah History Through Native Eyes: Learning About the Noochew (Ute People).” The presentation begins at 1 p.m. and highlights the key periods that greatly affected the Noochew, including life
before non-Indian contact, Spanish control and the arrival of the Latter-day Saints. “Mr. Cesspooch will give us the Noochew perspective on Utah history and allow us to see our shared history through him,” said Britt McNamara, a Saturdays program planner. “It is always a good thing to alter your perspective and see from a different point of view.” In other activities that begin at noon, Utah State University graduate students will present their summer research. The topics range from information on an

excavation in Wyoming and Idaho getting involved with archaeology. Additionally, museum visitors will have the opportunity to make their own Fremont figurines. In addition to the Saturdays at the Museum activity series, community members and USU students alike can visit the museum during its standard operating hours, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday
through Friday, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays. Funding for the Saturday events is provided by a grant from the United States Institute of Museum and Library Services. The USU Museum of Anthropology is on the USU campus in the south turret of the historic Old Main building, Room 252. Admission is free. For Saturday activities, free parking is available in the adjacent lot, south of the building.

Pet: Lilly From: Cache Humane Society Why she’s so lovable: Lilly
is a little darling. Cuddly and playful, she’s still in need of some training and should not be left on her own for long periods of time. Lilly has short fur that should be easy to maintain, and she should do well in just about any family situation.

all mixed up Swamp Cabbage shares old, Florida sound Swamp Cabbage will perform at 8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 23, at Why Sound. Tickets are $5. Swamp Donkey and PseudoScorpion will open the show. The Seminoles, Timuquans and other Native Floridians harvested, boiled and ate the hearts of the Sabal palm tree. Steamed and served as a stew, it’s a rustic delicacy similar to artichoke hearts and traditional cabbage. That essence of the “real” Florida is the basis for Swamp Cabbage’s inspirational archetype: a mish mash of genres boiled into a stew of mixed blues, jazz, soul, southern rock, Appalachian and even classical vibes. Swamp Cabbage was formed in 2001 by veteran guitarist Walter Parks, who built an international career as the lead guitarist for Woodstock legend Richie Havens. Parks, who recently marked his debut as a solo artist with the release of his self-titled album earlier this year, formed the group along with bassist Jim DeVito and drummer Jagoda as a way to
explore his southern musical influences. Swamp Cabbage — using a guitar, bass and drum format — sounds like a southern rock band but “thinks” like
a jazz, blues or classical trio. Harmonically, their sound is more complex than the blues. Rhythmically it’s akin to New Orleans jazz. Lyrically, they offer a comedic travelogue
through Park’s North Florida upbringing, all complimented by his electric guitar style — a mélange of Scott Joplin’s ragtime and Jerry Reed’s bayou pickin. DeVito’s bass
barks like a tuba through a fuzz box, and is backed by Jagoda’s New Orleans funeral parade style drummin’. With three self-released albums of original material under their belt — “Honk” (2006), “Squeal” (ZOHO Roots, 2008) and “Live From New York” (2010) — this summer the trio will release “Drum Roll Please,” a disc of re-envisioned, re-imagined and re-swamped ’70s classics, presented in a way that only the raspy singin’ combo of fatback blues and trailer park funk can dish out. “Drum Roll Please” was created in their signature three piece format, allowing almost every song to be loyally recreated live. “On this record we foolishly endeavored to translate to a simple guitar, bass and drums format songs that had been originally recorded by orchestras or with tape splicing and sonic trickery of that sort.” Also featured on the disc is an old Gretch drum kit and rare mid-’60s Guild basses and guitars; a nod to Parks’ love of vintage instruments.
Songwriter Sarah Sample coming in concert The Bridger Folk Music Society presents a concert with singer/songwriter Sarah Sample at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 25, at 7:30 p.m. at Crumb Brothers Bakery, 291 S. 300 West in Logan. Tickets are $13 and are available at www.bridgerfolk. org, or by calling 435-757-3468, or take your chances at the door. Seating is limited, and this show traditionally sells out, so advance purchase is recommended. The concert is sponsored by Import Auto and Utah Public Radio. Sample has performed all over

the four corners, and then some in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Wyoming and Texas. Sample’s album “Never Close Enough” is to her as “Flaming Red” is to Patty Griffin: a marked departure from a promising, acoustic debut but never too far away from her soulful
folk roots. Sarah’s passionate, soul-stirring voice is up front. On “Never Close Enough,” with some new musical colors and a great new family of songs, Sample achieved her dream to stay true to the muse while staying faithful to her roots. “Someday, Someday” is Sample’s latest release. And after two albums, an EP, and lots of touring into her career, Sample is quickly shedding any traces of up-and-comer with its arrival.

W
hen Larry Smith was a kid, he watched his dad play the saxophone at a dance in Franklin, Idaho, and from that moment on, Smith knew he wanted to play. “I was so enthralled with all of it,” he says. As a seventh-grade student, Smith began using his dad’s old instruments and learned to play the clarinet. Two years later, he picked up the saxophone. From there, music has been one of the important parts of his life, and he never plans to quit.
• Smith earned his bachelor’s degree in music from Utah State University in 1959. He went on to earn a master’s degree from USU and a Ph.D. from the University of Utah. • At USU, Smith taught music theory, ear training, arranging, jazz improv, jazz piano, the saxophone, jazz history and led the jazz bands at USU until he retired in 2003. • A few of Smith’s well-known students include Utah Festival Opera’s Michael Ballam, USU’s Caine College of the Art’s Dean Craig Jessop and USU music department head Gary Amano. • After retiring, Smith says he wanted to stay active and keep up playing the saxophone, so he started the Jazz Kicks Band. Currently, all 17 members graduated from USU or are USU faculty. • Smith is also part of a few combos that play for various events. The Larry Smith Orchestra also plays big band music at the annual Celebrate America Show in Logan. • If he had advice for other musicians, Smith would say, “Don’t quit. If you start, keep playing because I have so many people say they wish they had. Start a group. I was always starting a band.” • Smith has fun with the Jazz Kicks Band because he gets to choose the music, he says with a smile. In addition, everyone in the group can improvise so they have a good time playing solos back and forth. • “It is so much fun playing music with your friends. It’s one of the great joys in life.”

LYS’s ‘Hamlet’ closes Saturday It is Shakespeare’s most famous, most frequently quoted, and probably his most popular play. It is considered by many to be a masterpiece of English literature and the stage, but if you ask the young actors of Logan Youth Shakespeare, they will just tell you, “Hamlet’s awesome!” The public can still catch “Hamlet” on Friday and Saturday at 5:30 p.m. at Bruner Hall in Logan’s First Presbyterian Church, 200 W. Center St. As with all LYS plays, “Hamlet” will be shown in its entirety. To accommodate audiences, dinner from Culinary Concepts is available for purchase during intermission. Tickets are available online at cachearts.org or at the door and cost $6 for adults and $3 for kids younger than 18. No children under 5 will be admitted.
Celebrate America “In The Miller Mood” is a swinging musical show that takes the audience back to the 1940s when Glenn Miller and other great big bands helped boost the morale of the nation. “In The Miller Mood” plays nightly Sept. 4-8 in the Evan Stevenson Ballroom on the Utah State University Campus in Logan. Tickets are available with or without dinner. All shows (except Sept. 4) feature entertainment after the show with dancing. Group and student rates are available. Tickets can be purchased at www.celebrateamericashow.com or by calling 435-752-0026.

movies Novelist and filmmaker Peter Hedges, author of “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape” and creator of Katie Holmes’ lovely independent feature “Pieces of April,” strains to Disney-ize the family dysfunction territory he explored so well in those works with this nauseatingly sweet fantasy. Adapting a short story by Ahmet Zappa (son of Frank), writerdirector Hedges tries for old-fashioned wholesomeness only to flounder amid a well-intended but sappy tale of a childless couple mystically granted a test run at parenthood. Hedges assembled an impressive cast, led by Jennifer Garner and Joel Edgerton as parents to a mystery boy (CJ Adams) that comes into their lives, and the
actors buy into the story’s conceits wholeheartedly. The characters are simplistic and artificial, though, behaving in ways that often are insultingly naive and sometimes just plain stupid. A movie’s in trouble when the characters are just as unbelievable as the premise. It’s a very pretty movie to look at, awash in postcard images of rural America and lush colors that turn from verdant to autumnal as the story unfolds. Beneath the pretty pictures is a silly, shallow stab at Capra-corn, the sort of magical story of simple, genuine people mastered by Frank Capra with such films as “Meet John Doe” and “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Sadly, the movie’s is all corn, no Capra. 104 minutes.

‘ParaNorman’ doomed by script demons
Crowning achievements J As Mrs. Utah, Juliet Tietjen says she’s able to make a difference
uliet Tietjen has done this before. Only it was 2005. And she went to Palm Springs, Calif., rather than Tucson, Ariz. And she had two kids instead of four. And most notably, the striking brunette currently residing in North Logan was representing Idaho at the Mrs. America Pageant rather than the state of Utah. “Isn’t that funny?” Juliet says. “That’s kind of the weird thing about this. I had never thought about competing again, but this is kind of a unique opportunity.” First held in 1977, the Mrs. America Pageant is celebrating its 35th anniversary this year by allowing former winners to come back and compete one more time. Although she and her husband, Spencer, had moved to Utah so he could take a position as an audiologist at Cache Valley Ear, Nose & Throat, Juliet’s former pageant director in Idaho still called her up and suggested she enter the pageant in Utah. “I had such a good experience

before, and I wanted to get more involved in the community and in Utah,” Juliet says. “So, I asked my husband, ‘Honey, do you want me to do this again?’ And he said, ‘Yeah!’” Juliet ended up being named Mrs. Cache Valley and then edging out 14 other women in the state pageant at Peery’s Egyptian Theater in Ogden on March 3. She’s now gearing up for the national Mrs. America Pageant in Tucson. Since Juliet has to be there from Aug. 23-29 — with the actual crowning taking place on Aug. 29 — she’s leaving for Arizona on Aug. 22, while Spencer and the four kids will drive down the following week. “He’s so supportive and so awesome; he’ll be fine with the kids,” she says with a smile. “You couldn’t do something like this unless you had a super husband like him.” Both natives of Rexburg, Idaho, Juliet and Spencer moved to the Boise area after graduating from Ricks College to attend Boise State University. Juliet graduated from BSU in 2001 with a major in theater
arts. Now the mother of four children — Jonah, 10; Eden, 8; Peter, 4; and Haven, 2 — the former Juliet Pack insists that she was “not a pageant veteran” when she was named Mrs. Idaho seven years ago. However, her older sister, Elaine, was crowned Miss Idaho in 1983, and another sister competed in pageants growing up. “So, I was around pageants a little bit,” she admits. “But I had different goals in college, and probably didn’t have the confidence to get up on stage in a swimsuit. I guess I had to get married to get the confidence. “Spencer kept saying, ‘You’re pretty enough, you should do it.’ And he just kept encouraging me to get out of my comfort zone.” Juliet said it was “unexpected” and “much to my surprise” that she won the title of Mrs. Idaho, but that it was “a really good experience.” She said she really enjoyed meeting other women and people in the community, as well as being able to be very service oriented. An accomplished harpist and music teacher, Juliet says she and
Spencer are both heavily involved with the Starkey Hearing Foundation, which promotes hearing awareness, education, protection and treatment throughout the world. “I like the Mrs. America program because we can have a platform, and it opens up your scope of influence when you have a crown,” says Juliet, who helped provide $10,000 worth of hearing aids and treatment for two Cache Valley residents last winter. The 33-year old says she’s found it a “pleasant surprise” that there can be more to pageants than “the stereotype of fake eyelashes and high heels.” “There’s a lot of good women with good hearts who compete at all different stages of their lives for some really good reasons,” Juliet adds. Spencer says he enjoys being married to Mrs. Utah — and previously Mrs. Idaho — but that he often has to “emphasize the ‘Mrs.’” “People will come up and say, ‘So, your wife is Miss Utah?’ And I’ll go, ‘Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! That’s Mrs. Utah!’”

Spencer are both heavily involved with the Starkey Hearing Foundation, which promotes hearing awareness, education, protection and treatment throughout the world. “I like the Mrs. America program because we can have a platform, and it opens up your scope of influence when you have a crown,” says Juliet, who helped provide $10,000 worth of hearing aids and treatment for two Cache Valley residents last winter. The 33-year old says she’s found it a “pleasant surprise” that there can be more to pageants than “the stereotype of fake eyelashes and high heels.” “There’s a lot of good women with good hearts who compete at all different stages of their lives for some really good reasons,” Juliet adds. Spencer says he enjoys being married to Mrs. Utah — and previously Mrs. Idaho — but that he often has to “emphasize the ‘Mrs.’” “People will come up and say, ‘So, your wife is Miss Utah?’ And I’ll go, ‘Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! That’s Mrs. Utah!’”

Politicians’ sound bites often bite right back an efficient military deterrent, secure banking system, water, roads, public radio, utilities and cute little dogs that make my heart soar like a hawk. I could go on, but then you might think me a socialist. We are born a nation of individualists, manifest destiny nut bags and boot strap pullers. We have too many selfhelp books and sports anthems telling that us that we “just have to want it bad enough.” We are a colorful medley of individuals shouting me, me, me. Even a casual look at Facebook will reveal that mainly people post about all the wonderful places they are going and fantastic food they
Slightly Off Center DENNIS HINKAMP
“Dog bites man” is not news, “man bites dog” is news and “sound bites bite candidates” is politics. That’s just the way it is. I’m sure this news cycle will pass soon and new sound bites will emerge, so I thought I would make it clear now that, yes, it is almost impossible to build anything on your own. I’m also sure that Romney loves to fire people as much as Donald Trump on reality TV and that, if elected, he will require all dogs to be strapped to roof racks. In fact, he will change the name of roof rack to woof racks. I think Obama Photoshopped his birth certificate and that Romney actually keeps all his money in a vault under the Vatican. There are times when the president is such a deliberate speaker that his pauses become so long that you want to check the power switch on the radio. The Romney-Ryan ticket reminds me of a quote from one of my favorite movies; “It’s like Abercrombie and Fitch is making people now.” The president may have said it the wrong way, but it is verifiably true that “you didn’t build that” as in you singular. Whether you won a gold medal or red ribbon at the county fair, there was a complex road to that victory that began the day you were born. The limited success I’ve had in life can and should be attributed to parents, relatives, friends, schools, mentors, sanitation, safe food supply, consumer protection,
are eating. As a side note, this is actually a refreshing break from most literature that only seems to be written in the depths of depression, after divorce or when a loved one has cancer. But back to the point; with few exceptions, you didn’t build anything by yourself.
What the president said is painfully true. There are plenty of hard working, smart people who are wallowing in obscurity. Trying to figure out the difference between success and failure is mind-numbingly complex. This is probably why people fall back on luck, destiny or divine intervention rather than try to figure out how they arrived at any given point in life. And maybe Romney is right. Maybe government is too big, too nosey, noisy, grumpy, sleepy, sneezy and dopey, but we do need government. I think all candidates will agree that we need at least one person (them), along with a cadre of
partisan cheerleaders, to make this dog bark.

But now you must let me go So my spirit can be free. Please live your life, be happy. That would mean so much to me. So when only God has decided That your time on earth is through. You know I will be waiting, To spend eternity with you.
“The Proud” By Nephi Montana The proud are always in control, they always get their way. They’re always giving orders, that you’re expected to obey. And when it comes to knowledge, they have more than their share. They’re so high and important, it’s more than I can bear. They know everything, well, everything almost. When they get up to give a talk, they never fail to boast. They always put others down, with some cute, little dig. When I look at the proud, I always see a pig.

Julia Child book honors chef on 100th birthday By Jessica Gresko Associated Press
Before Bobby Flay and Emeril Lagasse, before Gordon Ramsay and Rachael Ray, before Lidia Bastianich and Anthony Bourdain, there was Julia Child. Child made her TV cooking debut in 1962, in black and white, and by the time she’d finished making an omelet, audiences were hooked. TV cooking has never been the same. Now, out in time for what would have been the late chef’s 100th birthday on Aug. 15, Bob Spitz has written a soup-to-nuts biography of her life. Spitz takes readers from her childhood in Pasadena, Calif., to her
days at Smith College and from her work for America’s first intelligence agency during World War II to her introduction to serious cooking in France. While the book begins with her first television appearance, it backtracks to her youth, and readers don’t even get to her enrollment in cooking classes at Paris’ Le Cordon Bleu until more than a third of the way into the book. Early chapters can be a bit slow, since the topic readers inevitably want to read about is her cooking. Still, Child’s life and plucky attitude are quality ingredients. Add Spitz’s storytelling skills and the result is a foolproof recipe for entertainment. Readers
get tasty morsels on every page. Child loved Goldfish crackers and served them as hors d’oeuvres. She was paid $50 per episode for her first
he’d leave years later for a Chilean woman hired to help care for the poet while he was sick in Mexico. But the woman who haunts him most is one with whom he had just a fleeting affair and who, decades later, has the answer to a question that could help him die in peace.
At a gathering among leftist friends, Neruda meets Cayetano Brule, a Cuban living in Chile after marrying his wife. He is disgruntled, unemployed and disenchanted with his marriage. Neruda convinces Brule he has the makings of an excellent detective and hires him to track down an oncologist friend in Mexico who had been studying herbal remedies for cancer and who, unbeknownst to Brule at the time, will lead him one step closer to the woman he needs to find. To equip his novice detective with the tools needed to solve the mystery, Neruda gives Brule tomes of Belgian crime novelist Georges Simenon, whose Inspector Maigret is to serve as a guide of sort, though Brule finds his example lacking for a private eye in Latin America.
show, “The French Chef.” At one point, her mornings included 60 strokes on a rowing machine so that when she beat egg whites on television she wouldn’t get out of breath. And on Thanksgiving, her home phone in Cambridge, Mass., would ring all day with people asking for help with their turkey dinners (her number was in the phone book). Readers will swear that to write the book Spitz must have spent years as Child’s sous chef, observing and writing down details, like the fact that when testing the perfect French bread recipe she used up 284 pounds of
flour. Spitz did in fact follow Child for several weeks in 1992 while writing about her for a number of magazines. For his master work, however, he sifted through her archive of papers at Harvard and had the help of friends, relatives and chefs who knew her and agreed to interviews. Spitz spent four years researching and writing the 500-plus-page tome. That’s still shy of the 700plus pages of Child’s first cookbook, “Mastering the Art of French Cooking,” but what Spitz produces is also a deliciously satisfying read. As Child would say, “Bon appetit!”
‘Neruda Case’ chips away poet’s myth new york times best-sellers By Christine Armario Associated Press
The great Chilean poet Pablo Neruda wrote about Latin American history and landscapes, the simple beauty and depth of ordinary objects, but perhaps most memorably, about love. His inspiration drew from his life, and in Roberto Ampuero’s novel, “The Neruda Case,” the poet reminisces about the women in his life during his final days, as the threat of a coup d’etat against socialist President Salvador Allende builds and Neruda grows increasingly weak from the cancer that would soon take his life. In pursuit of his craft, love was often a casualty, and Ampuero’s imagined Neruda is tormented by his past: The wife he abandoned with their dying daughter in Spain for an Argentine woman, whom
