COLUMN 12 Dennis Hinkamp talks about the slippery truth
CALENDAR 15 See what’s happening this week
s it possible to listen to one song too many times? If so, I think I’ve done it. On many, many occasions. When I find a tune I like, it plays on repeat for weeks, becoming the soundtrack to that period of my life. Just hearing a few notes of some songs can remind me of a moment, a certain someone or a whole phase of life. “Called Out in the Dark” by Snow
Patrol takes me to the late winter, early spring of this year and an apartment on 500 East. Several Pink Martini songs mark the winter season of three years ago. “Go Outside” by Cults saw me through this most recent summer, and Norah Jones played during a drive along the Oregon coast. Regina Spektor has sung her way through many times in my life and “Rock & Roll” by Eric Hutchinson has provided the beat for many dance parties. Playing this week? The Civil Wars’ cover of “Billie Jean” by Michael Jackson. I’ve seen some great bands perform here in Logan. On a whim I went with a friend to see The Milk Carton Kids
play at the Logan Art House and Cinema. They are now one of my favorite groups. Another band I love, Fictionist, performed at Why Sound. There is something about seeing musicians perform live, and that concert changed the way I hear their music. There are plenty of opportunities in the coming week to attend concerts and other musical performances. There are concerts at Why Sound, and one at Crumb Brothers Bakery. Also, “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” has been put to original music, pantomime and sound effects. For more on this event, check out page 8. — Arie Kirk
‘Dracula’ takes the stage at Ellen Eccles In celebration of the Halloween season, the Cache Valley Civic Ballet is excited to present “Dracula” at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 26 and 27 in the Ellen Eccles Theatre. This unique production offers a different twist on the typical ballet. The audience is transported to late 18th century London where Dracula and his vampire brides are terrorizing the townspeople. This dramatic tale told through the art of dance intertwines themes of horror, deceit and even love. Kevin Nakatani, a popular performer with the Utah Festival Opera, will play the role of Count Dracula. Choirs from the Preston seventh and eighth grades and Mount Logan Middle School will perform during intermission. Seasonal artwork created by students from Logan and Fast Forward Charter high schools will also be

Pet: Baby Boy From: Four Paws Rescue Why he’s so lovable: Baby
Boy’s family moved to a place where they couldn’t have cats, and they sadly had to give him up. He is super friendly and outgoing. He gets along well with dogs, cats and people of all ages! Other than his need to loose some weight, Baby Boy is a very healthy cat. He is looking for a home that will give him love, and keep him indoors. If you would like to meet Baby Boy or learn more, call Sheri at 435787-1751. The adoption fee for this cat is $75, which covers his neuter surgery and up-to-date vaccinations.

Alex Boyé was born in London to a Nigerian mother and an apparently absent father, also Nigerian. At the tender age of 11 years old, his mother took a “three-week” trip back to her native country, and stayed for 11 years. Alex lived in and out of foster care and spent some time living in the streets. As a teenager, he had a job at a McDonald’s. He had a co-worker who tried everything to get him interested in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. One day he said to Alex, “Do you like American girls?” Alex answered in the affirmative. Three days later, three American sister missionaries from the LDS Church showed up on his doorstep, and three weeks later, he was baptized. Boyé served a successful mission in Bristol, England, and came home A member of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Alex Boye will perform a solo concert Friday, to figure out what he would do for the rest of his life. He starred in several Oct. 26, at the Kent Concert Hall.
“boy bands” even winning prestigious awards for his band called “Awesome.” But the drug/immorality/music culture was not the place he aspired to, so he packed himself up and went to America —with $20 in his pocket. Eventually, Alex met with Craig Jessop, who was at the time, the director of the world famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Craig encouraged him to audition for the choir, and Boyé has been singing with them ever since. He travels with the choir, doing a lot of solo work with them, and continues to be one of three black performers in the choir. Boyé is also pursing, quite successfully, his solo career. He will be performing at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 26, at Utah State University’s Kent Concert Hall. The USU Chamber Singers will be featured for part of the concert, along with local vocalist Lorisa Pulotu.

It isn’t often you come across a movie like “Cloud Atlas.” A movie so broad in scope and so epic in imagination that dissecting its plot, story and characters simply wouldn’t do it justice. This is a movie that must be experienced and only then will people be able to make up their minds about it. One thing is for sure though, after seeing “Cloud Atlas” you won’t soon forget it. It’ll be one of those movies that wedges itself into your brain. Love it or hate it, you’ll ultimately find yourself thinking about it often because it’s a unique movie-going experience. The minute I walked out of “Cloud Atlas” I felt that I needed to see it again. This movie will certainly require multiple viewings if you are to pick up every subtle connection and idea it proposes. Based off of a novel written by David Mitchell, “Cloud Atlas” spans vast expanses of time like they were nothing. Each of these distinctly different time periods link to one another. Sometimes the link is strong, other times it seems as thin as fishing wire. There are six different stories, each

Whether these people are being reincarnated or if they’re descendants of those that came before is left up to you to decide. There are some strong themes like kindness, anger, and resentment that are passed through each of the characters on down the line. Weaving’s characters are all vicious villains, Berry’s characters appear as caring thoughtful types, whereas Hanks’ characters seem to undergo a change from evil to good as the movie progresses through time. “Cloud Atlas” is a beautifully ambitious movie.

Stories in Concert presents the classic tale of Ichabod Crane with original music, pantomime and sound effects his Halloween, there’s a brand new kind of entertainment in Logan. Described as “part reader’s theater and part historical reenactment, part radio show and part Broadway musical,” “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow in Concert” makes Washington Irving’s classic more accessible to families. The show was produced for the first time in 2004 by Steve and Jayme Smith. The couple directed the Lehi City Choir at the time, and wanted to do something different for their fall concert. They added original music, pantomime and sound effects to the nearly 200-year-old story and formed Stories in Concert Productions.
Audiences in Lehi and American Fork enjoyed the performances from 2004-2008, and after moving to Mendon several years ago, the Smiths decided to try their hand at a performance in Cache Valley. “Cache Valley is full of such welcoming and nice people,” Steve said, “that I actually think our offering fits better here. We’re very blessed, and very lucky.” Residents of Utah aren’t the only ones to enjoy the show either. Steve said audience members are also making the trip from Wyoming, Idaho and even California to see the show. Steve expects more than a thousand people will enjoy the experience before clos-
ing night. The Cache Valley Fairgrounds come alive at 6:30 p.m., when audience members are invited to a harvest festival set in Tarrytown, N.Y., circa the 18th century. Steve said the festival helps the audience identify and understand Washington Irving’s world and immerse themselves more fully in the story. The festival is run by costumed volunteers and includes a haunted hay ride, colonial games such as quoits and graces, and the chance to use ink and quill to write a note and seal it with wax. The performance starts at 8 p.m. at

We’re entering a time of great dark sadness for comedians, columnists and pundits. Soon the presidential campaign will be over and it could be literally weeks before a new one begins for 2016. Fox and CNBC are packing up their tour buses full of work-release asylum crazies and the narcissistic undecided voters are looking for someone to interview them about something. Debate moderators have gone back to their former jobs as Pro Wrestling referees. It’s a good time to contemplate the vagaries of truth. If the truth will set you free, we are all prisoners with life sentences. I’m not just

‘Truthiness’ closer to the reality in which we live
talking about the truthoptional presidential campaign, but it sure drives the point home. I’m not just talking about Lance Armstrong being stripped of his awards for drug use even though he never failed a drug test, but that has to be one of the greatest truth bending

mysteries in recent history. The truth is about as slippery as the terms “middle class” and “middle age;” they both have statistical definitions but most people choose to ignore them when describing themselves. Most of us choose not to be middle of anything. This is why philosophy courses are valuable even if they don’t help you land a job. Sure it is easy to say that the bloated legal system will extract the truth, but it never happens. The accurate lie detector machine eludes us like the really great frozen pizza. The truth is a bottomless well of exceptions. Look in a mirror. Do

you ever drive faster than the speed limit, accelerate when you see a yellow light or deduct $500 from your income tax for that box of old clothes you donated to Deseret Industries? Truth is time sensitive: When asked, and if I’m in a truthful mood, I say that I’m 56 years old when what I really should say is that I’m 56 plus so many months, days, minutes and seconds. At only one instant in time am I exactly 56. The truth would be too complicated so we allow for rounding and exaggeration.
So how much do you have to exaggerate for it to become a lie? If candidate Romney promises to create 12 million jobs and he only creates 11.5 million people would probably just say he was exaggerating or rounding off. However, if he only created 7 million jobs he would be drifting into lying Pinocchio pants-on-fire territory. Truth is contextual: Lance Armstrong actually did win all those races as witnessed by millions of people in person and on television. The question is, did he cheat and lie about cheating to do it?
55 North Main, Logan
Is lying part of cheating or the other way around? Rather than acting like the wins never happened, why not just add an asterisk indicated that they happened the wrong way. According Wikipedia which itself is the magic 8-ball of truth, the word “truthiness” was coined by philosopher/comedian Steven Colbert. Truthiness is probably closer to the reality where we all live. Dennis Hinkamp would like to invite you to all vote your conscious no matter how hard that is to find.

Reel Continued from Page 7 embraces the fact that filming something of this scope once seemed impossible. Many thought Mitchell’s novel wasn’t fit for adaption to the big screen because of the wide swaths of time it covered and the life-affirming ideals
it supposed. Yet, the Wachowskis, along with fellow director Tom Tykwer, have figured out a way to tell this story. Make no mistake, watching it will require the utmost attention on your part. There is no shutting off of the brain when you sit down to watch this movie. You must be attentive, always trying to figure out who connects to who, what connects to
what, and most importantly, what lessons, themes, and morals the movie is espousing. You really have to admire how much ambition this movie has. It won’t please everyone, and I have a feeling that it will become a very divisive movie among film fans. However, I can’t shake the feeling that it’s one of the most important films of 2012 so far.
