FROM THE EDITOR It seems to be the season where entertainment and fundraising for worthy causes come together. While compiling this week’s calendar, a number of events jumped at me — some of which are happening this week, and some of them in the weeks to come. I’ve long been under the impression that fundraising for those people who are truly in need is arguably the best use of the Internet, and so if you have a chance to explore some of the backstories and/or participate in any of the events,
it will surely be worth your time: • Why Sound will present Crush Cancer: A Benefit Concert from noon to 11 p.m. Friday, Sept. 25, at 30 Federal Ave. In loving memory of Bart Cragun and in support of Julie Ryals, the concert will feature performances by My New Mistress, Someonce, Red Light Commandos, The Wasatch Fault, Where the Rowdy Things are, Clementine, Regal Beagle and more. Tickets for all-day access are $10. Funds raised will go towards benefitting Bart Cragun’s two young sons, Caleb and Isaac, and Julie Ryals, who is battling kidney cancer while trying to raise a child with Down Syndrome. For more information, visit bartsbattle.com and gofundme. com/8ga28e6stk.
• A fundraising event for the National Down Syndrome Society, the Buddy Walk & 5K will be held on Saturday, Sept. 26, at the American West Heritage Center, 4025 S. U.S. Hwy. 89-91 in Wellsville. The 5K begins at 9:15 a.m.; the Buddy Walk starts at 11 a.m. Visit udsf.donordrive.com for more information. • Reach for the Stars, a benefit dinner and auction for Common Ground Outdoor Adventures, will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 7, at the Riverwoods, 615 Riverwoods Pkwy. Individual tickets are $75. Tables range from $750 to $5,000-plus. Call 713-0288 or visit cgadventures.org for more information. — Jeff Hunter

Quincy D. Newell, a specialist in the religious history of the American West, will be the featured speaker at the 21st annual Leonard J. Arrington Mormon History Lecture, an event coordinated by Utah State University’s Special Collections and Archives, a division of University Libraries. Newell will present “Narrating Jane: Telling the Story of an Early African American Mormon Woman” at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 24, at the Logan Tabernacle. The lecture if free and everyone is invited. The subject of the lecture, Jane Elizabeth Manning James, was among the early African American converts to Mormonism. Newell is a respected educator who, after more than a decade on the religious studies faculty at the University of Wyoming, now teaches in the
religious studies department at Hamilton College in New York. Brad Cole, director of Special Collections and Archives at USU and interim dean for University Libraries, coordinates the lecture series on behalf of USU. He’s had a long association with both the lecture series and the Arrington Foundation. “We are very excited to have Quincy Newell as this year’s Arrington Mormon History lecturer,” Cole says. “Dr. Newell represents a wave of young historians who are exploring new topics in Mormon history. In addition to her work on Jane Elizabeth Manning James (an early African American convert to Mormonism), she is also examining Native American Mormons in the early Utah Mormon church.
Tracy Lord is about to get married today again. Or is she? Her fiancé, George Kittredge, is very wealthy and very proper. He probably will not approve of what happened last night. Mike Connor, the newspaper man sent to cover her “Wedding of the Year,” seems to be very enamored of her after what happened last night. Her exhusband, C.K. Dexter Haven, who has been hanging around — uninvited — seems to find an infuriat-
ing mirth in what happened last night. The problem is that Tracy, who never drinks, got drunk and can’t remember what happened last night. Is she getting married again? And if so ... to whom? Come see what did happen last night, if the wedding is going to happen, and, who, if anybody, marries whom. Based on the Broadway play

‘Perfect Guy,’ ‘Visit’ cruise to top of box office LOS ANGELES (AP) — “The Perfect Guy” and “The Visit” sailed past modest opening weekend expectations — and budgets — locking in debuts in the mid-$20 million range thanks in part to good timing and robust female turnout. “The Perfect Guy,” a PG-13 rated thriller starring Sanaa Lathan and Michael Ealy, secured the first place spot with $26.7 million, according to Rentrak estimates on Sunday. The Sony/Screen Gems film cost only $12 million to produce. M. Night Shyamalan’s nail-biter
“The Visit,” a $5 million production from micro-budget horror-makers Blumhouse, took a close second with an estimated $25.7 million for distributor Universal. With numbers this close, the places might shift when Monday actuals roll in, but both films are resounding successes on a weekend that often doesn’t go noticed on the release calendar. “We’re not breaking any records, but this is the perfect weekend for these films,” said Paul Dergarabedian, the Senior Media Analyst for Rentrak. “Studios are finding a land
of opportunity in weekends that were heretofore ‘slow weekends’ at the box office and proving that audiences are always looking for new content.” Female audiences helped “The Perfect Guy” shoot to the No. 1 spot. An estimated 69 percent were women and 58 percent over the age of 25. “It bodes well for the longevity of the film. Not only is it a date movie, but it’s a film that girlfriends are going to go to together as well,” said Rory Bruer, Sony’s President of See BOX on Page 12
Swift delivers star power Guests lining up to join pop songstress on the stage NEW YORK (AP) — You could call Taylor Swift baby Oprah, and the stage is her version of Winfrey’s couch. Easily the most important pop star of today, now Swift’s star power has reached even greater heights and stretched outside of music, thanks to her uber successful, starstudded 1989 World Tour. In typical Swift fashion, she has invited fellow radio-friendly singers to join her onstage, including Nick Jonas, Jason Derulo, John Legend and gal pals Selena Gomez and Lorde. But Swift, 25, has also shared her stage with iconic folk singer Joan Baez and breakthrough acts like The Weeknd and Fetty Wap, who sang his hit “Trap Queen,” a contemporary love song about cooking cocaine — among other things — with your lover. And then there were the tour’s unorthodox moments: Ellen DeGeneres appeared onstage,

Return of football transforming TV ratings in big way NEW YORK (AP) — Television’s fall season is already in full swing — the football season. Fresh entertainment programming doesn’t begin until next week, after the Emmy Awards. Football is so dominant now that 11 of the 20 most-watched primetime programs last week were either games or shows about the games. The top non-football event in the rankings, CBS’ “60 Minutes,” is there in large measure because it comes directly after an NFL game. The Thursday night kickoff game to the NFL season, between Pittsburgh and New England, was seen by 27.4 million people. Only one other game — in 2010 between Minnesota and New Orleans — had more viewers in the 14 years that the NFL has done this season opening game. Similarly, the New York Giants-Dallas Cowboys game was seen by 26.8 million, second only to a 2012 Pittsburgh-Denver for the most-watched first Sunday night game in the 10 years NBC has been televising them, the Nielsen company said. In an oddly compelling competition on Sunday night, AMC’s “Fear the Walking Dead” narrowly beat ABC’s coverage of the annual “Miss America” pageant, 7.2 million to 7.1 million viewers. Thanks to the two prime-time NFL games, NBC trounced the competition with an average of 11.3 million viewers. For the week of Sept. 7-13, the top 10 shows, their networks and viewerships: NFL Football: Pittsburgh at New England, NBC, 27.4 million; NFL Football: N.Y. Giants at Dallas, NBC, 26.77 million; “NFL Pregame Show” (Thursday), NBC, 20.99 million; “NFL Pregame Show” (Sunday), NBC, 20.03 million; “Football Night in America” (Sunday, 7:57 p.m.), NBC, 14.89 million; “NFL Today Post-Game Show,” CBS, 14.31 million. “NFL Opening Kickoff Show,” NBC, 12.56 million; “60 Minutes,” CBS, 11.46 million; College Football: Ohio St. vs. Virginia Tech, ESPN, 10.59 million; “America’s Got Talent” (Tuesday), NBC, 10.53 million.
vide broad strokes of narrative instead. It jumps from one violent beating to another without really diving into what actually makes Bulger tick. There’s plenty of material available about Bulger that could be mined for cinematic effect. Yet, the movie is content with showing us many of the horrendous things Bulger did without really focusing on the more interesting why. “Black Mass” seems to be a tale of two halves. On one hand you have wonderful acting and a performance by Johnny Depp that is sure to elicit early Oscar talk. On the other hand, you have a straightforward gangster story that feels more like an R-rated, PBS-style recounting of Bulger’s history, instead of a character study of a warped and violent mind. In this case, substance over style isn’t necessarily a good thing.

The Reel Place Aaron Peck
All the attention, all the awards talk, all the accolades will likely be heaped upon Johnny Depp’s transformative performance in “Black Mass” as James “Whitey” Bulger, one of America’s most ruthless gangsters. Depp is once again on the other end of elaborate makeup, but this time it isn’t of a wacky origin. The slicked-back thinning hair, the dead tooth and the haunting icy-blue eyes; it’s all very effective and surreal. Depp is great here, but the question is: can the movie around him rise to the level of his performance? Like so many gangster movies, Scott Cooper’s (“Out of the Furnace”) “Black Mass” is a visceral experience. However, unlike most of the greatest gangster movies, “Black Mass” lacks a unique style, instead settling for rote procedural. Perhaps unfairly, Cooper’s ability to handle a gangster epic will assuredly be compared to the likes of Martin Scorsese. It makes sense. One could picture Scorsese directing “Black Mass.” One can almost imagine what a Scorsese version of the movie would look and feel like. And therein lies the problem. Cooper’s film never seems to distance itself from other gangster flicks. It has very little in the way of discernible style or panache. That’s not to say that the acting isn’t great — it is. But the proceedings can feel a bit labored after a while without a notable style to fall back on. The story begins in

nside Inside his Logan home earlier this month, Russ Fjeldsted blasted Willie Nelson’s “My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys” while painting a photograph he took of the Wellsville Mountains, applying broad brushstrokes of oils to a canvas. “I do it because I love to ... and sometimes, I sell a painting!” Fjeldsted laughed during an interview while working in his makeshift studio on the first floor of his home. “This isn’t something everyone has time to do; I’ve got plenty of time of my hands.” Fjeldsted, who is best known as the owner of The Sportsman in downtown Logan for decades while also serving as the mayor of the city from 1990-94, has been perfecting his craft for more than 30 years. Through the month of September, the Logan Library is displaying several selections of Fjeldsted’s work in a gallery called, “Still Life, Portraits and Landscape — the art of Russ Fjeldsted.” Lois Price, associate librarian, chose about 10 pieces from Fjeldsted’s Mountain Place Gal-

life,” she said. “I think he has a feeling for the West; there’s a sense of fun about (his paintings). I want people to see the sense of fun he has.” Fjeldsted got his start painting in the 1980s, learning from

Usually I ask them in my pre-show meet and greet if they want to come out onstage, then I’ll explain to them how the stage/elevator lift works and we just wing it,” Swift said in an email to The Associated Press. Many of her surprise guests have children who are die-hard Swifties. “Joan Baez and Julia Roberts were both at my show in Santa Clara, and they were in my meet-and-greet room together. Julia is such a huge Joan fan and they were really hitting it off. I asked them if they wanted to walk out onstage together and Julia’s kids exploded into ‘PLEASE!!’ So that’s how that
it. She’s a giver. She’s a real sweetheart, big heart — so she’s getting back everything that she is,” the R&B diva said of Swift and her big-time tour guests. “People support her.” At the same show, Swift performed a duet with “Orange is the New Black” star Uzo Aduba, marking her second appearance on the singer’s tour. Girl group Fifth Harmony said Swift learned the choreography for their latest hit, “Worth It,” in 20 minutes backstage before they performed in front of 60,000 screaming fans in Santa Clara, California. “I was actually crying while we were performing. I really was and like, I couldn’t even sing my words correctly, especially when she came and stood right next to us,” band member Dinah Jane Hansen said. “I mean, come on. It’s Taylor Swift.” Models also have been a part of the tour, which wraps Dec.

happened.” Other guests on the 1989 World Tour, which kicked off in Tokyo in May, have included Justin Timberlake, Alanis Morissette, Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks, Sam Hunt, Wiz Khalifa and Beck. “A lot of stars you can see maybe not wanting to kind of share the spotlight and not wanting to necessarily have other people up there with her, but Taylor’s thrilled to do that,” said Josh Duboff, who interviewed Swift for the cover of Vanity Fair’s September issue. “She’s kind of excited to share the stage, which I think is kind of unique right now.” Mary J. Blige, who sang her songs “Family Affair” and “Doubt” at the Staples Center in Los Angeles with Swift, said the singer “was someone I always loved way before she invited me to her show.” “It’s amazing.

And there are also Swift’s close friends, like Lena Dunham and Hailee Steinfeld, who helped recreate her jam-packed “Bad Blood” music video at live shows alongside Kloss and Hadid. “She’s a big inspiration to me. She knows that. We started our friendship because she was a really big fan of my music before anyone else. That’s a really cool thing,” said singer Ellie Goulding, who appears in the “Bad Blood” video. “I think she’s an inspiration to a lot of other female artists.” Goulding has yet to join Swift onstage on her latest tour, but she’s ready: “That would be so much. Anything that involves a catwalk I would be into because I know I’ll never do a real catwalk.” Swift has been a longtime
supporter of her musical peers, and the Swift approval could help launch or boost a career. Ed Sheeran’s star power rose after Swift declared she loved his music on social media, introducing him to her feverish fan base. (She’s the most followed person on Instagram with 46.5 million followers and she boasts 63.5 million followers on Twitter.) They later became friends and collaborators, and she continues to tweet about new artists she loves, most recently 19-year-old R&B singer Alessia Cara. “I think it’s amazing that she has an attitude that she can bring all these new artists who some I think are her competition,” said Nicholas Petricca, the Walk the Moon lead singer who performed his band’s massive hit “Shut up and Dance” with Swift on her tour. “Like, if they succeed, she succeeds. We all succeed together,” he said.
that was sinking like a rock in his swimming pool; Twitter exploded. Also, an Air Canada pilot is credited with saving a dog’s life by diverting a flight from Tel Aviv to Toronto after a heating system malfunction in the plane’s cargo area. This moment of valor is estimated to have tacked on about $10,000 in fuel costs and delaying the flight by 75 minutes. We really can be better human beings; sometimes it just takes a dog to make us do it. ———

Some days are just doomed. Road construction has slowed traffic to dial-up modem speeds, young people are surly because they are back in school, you’re getting work-related emails at 10 p.m. and the St. Louis Cardinals are blowing a nine-game lead, dropping three of four to the lastplace Reds. These are all First World problems, to be sure. It would be easy to melt into a self-pity puddle. Then you see this furry, black blur run by at hubcap height at the intersection of 200 South and 1000 West. I’ve never understood why there is so much traffic at mid-afternoon in Logan, but there is. So, this would seem like a death dash for an unleashed micro-mutt. There is nothing all that urgent or meaningful waiting for me at the end of my drive, so it only takes about 1.4 seconds to decide to turn right and follow the developing drama. I am not alone; all manner of people are stopping to chase a little dog because, heck, it has to be more meaningful than what we were all headed to. The anonymous black pooch is now running down the middle, shared turn lane on the four lanes of 1000 West with its tongue out in an apparent hurry to get to or away from something.

Something for everyone at Emmy Awards LOS ANGELES (AP) — If we look to television for more than entertainment — and let’s face it, we do — then Sunday’s Emmy Awards ceremony will have something for everyone. The masterful storytelling of television’s second golden age rightfully will be center stage, with leading contenders including “Game of Thrones,” ‘’Orange is the New Black” and the final season of “Mad Men.” But growing pressure on media to reflect American diversity, and Emmy voters’ response, will be a crucial part of the ceremony as well. The transgender comedy “Transparent” is up for top honors, and two black actresses are
hoping they can break the white-only hold on a major category. The digital-revolution vanguard will be out in force, as Amazon’s “Transparent” and Netflix series including “House of Cards” and “Orange is the New Black” gnaw away at the prestige awards that for decades were the exclusive domain of broadcast networks and cable channels. That was until just two years ago, when Netflix muscled its way in with “House of Cards” and “Arrested Development.” Record-keepers may find much to occupy themselves with the three-hour ceremony airing 8 p.m. EDT Sunday on Fox.

This weekend was in some ways the last gasp before the fall movie season starts in earnest with a number of high profile releases. “Both ‘The Perfect Guy’ and ‘The Visit’ took full advantage of a perfect release date before ‘Sicario,’ ‘Everest,’ ‘Black Mass,’ and ‘The Scorch Trials’ all open,” said Dergarabedian. “It’s going to be a veritable traffic jam at the box office next weekend.”

The first Papunya painters were men whose extensive cultural knowledge of ancestral stories, referred to as “dreamings,” provided the subject matter. Encouraged by a Sydney schoolteacher who provided materials — acrylic paint and masonite boards and, later, canvas — to create permanent works, the artists employed symbols used in other contexts. Among the

Caught by the magic bug at 4 years old, Owenhouse first performed as a freshman in high school. Since then, in the spirit of “giving it away to keep it,” Owenhouse has invented magic effects and designed illusions not only for his show, but also for other world-renowned magicians.

male artists included are Long Jack Phillipus Tjakamarra, Tim Payungka Tjapangarti and Shorty Lungkarta Tjungurrayi. Over time, Papunya artists moved away from the use of symbols toward greater abstraction. The scale of artworks on canvas grew and women began painting, using a markedly more gestural and vibrant style than their male counterparts. Today, these works are interpreted and experienced as contemporary abstract paintings, stimulating a rich dialogue about indigenous art in the contemporary art world. Among the women artists included are Makinta Napanangka, Ningura Napar-

Goutage’s advice was transformational for Fjeldsted. “He’d say to me, ‘You’re not bad, but you’re a Sunday painter,’” Fjeldsted said. “You can never be a great painter until you decide to paint more than Sunday. Now that I’m retired, I don’t paint on Sundays; I paint during the week when I have time.” Observing Fjeldsted’s work, it’s clear painting more than Sundays has paid off. “The more you do it, the more you trust in your abilities,” Fjeldsted said of painting. “It’s kind of built in. We have the five senses, and they all have something to do with what we’re doing in painting. I hate to say it’s addictive, but maybe that’s a word.” Fjeldsted favorite subjects to paint are Southern Utah, national parks and women. But Cache Valley takes the cake for Fjeldsted; he’s painted more of the area than anything else. “You have something new every single day that makes a different viewpoint than it did before,” Fjeldsted said. “People talk about Santa Fe (New Mexico) being the most beautiful place in the West, but I’d argue Cache Valley is just a beautiful as any place.”

Margo Smith, director and curator of Kluge Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection at the University of Virginia, was hired to serve as guest curator for the exhibition. Showcasing NEHMA’s important collection of 20th and 21st century art from the American West after World War I, “Transcendence: Abstraction and Symbolism in the American West” includes more than 60 works by 39 artists spanning painting, photography, sculpture, works on paper, pottery, video and
mixed media. The exhibition surveys American Indian and nonnative artists — including Edward Corbett, Deborah Remington, Robert Irwin, Sibyelle Szaggars Redford, Henrietta Shore and Takako Yamaguchi — who employ abstraction and symbolism to convey their experiences and interpretations of the American West. Complementing “Abstraction and the Dreaming,” the exhibition explores how the artists utilize these conceptual processes to convey responses to place, spirituality and cultural identity.

That said, “Everest” is a truly exhausting cinematic experience, and I say that in a good way. It’s the kind of movie where you forget to breathe. It’s the kind of movie where you stand up when it’s over and for some reason your thighs feel like you’ve been hiking. The suspense is unrelenting. It’s frightening that people would

your body is literally dying from lack of oxygen. It feels like a task that only hardcore professionals should undertake, and even then we glorify the everyday people who take on the life-threatening task of hiking the world’s tallest mountain. There’s something about conquering extremes that speaks to us as a species, even when we understand all the risks. One wonders if “Everest” is for the idea of extreme — and sometimes deadly — tourism, or if it’s against it. Or maybe it’s just there to highlight the dangers of thrill seeking. And yet, ultimately we all know that no matter how many people die trying to master Everest, more people will undertake the challenge regardless of its inherent danger.
