n DATC cutting staff in state mandate

n Formal sentence won’t be imposed until April; Young family at peace with jail term

LONELY VIGIL: In a photo that appeared in the Clipper shortly after the shooting in 2006, Bud Williams, grandfather and neighbor to Morgan Young, holds a portrait of family members in one of their last photographs together.

KAYSVILLE — Cuts are being made to personnel and programs at the Davis Applied Technology Center – all in line with mandated action required by the Governor. “We are in the process this week of contacting some people,” in regards to layoffs and changes in assignment, said DATC President Michael Bouwhuis. “This is my fourth recession,” the veteran of work in the state education sector since 1971 said. “This is by far the worst I’ve seen.” The cuts are being made based on information from the Utah Legislative Analyst’s office, and other sources,. he said. “It’s clear for this current fiscal year, we’re facing a 12 -15 percent budget cut,” Bouwhuis said. At this point, it’s not clear as to whether the upper or lower limit will have to be met, but “you just have to look at the worst case scenario, which is what we’ve been doing.” The first cut, following the special legislative session earlier this year, trimmed the fulltime equivalent staff from 120 to 118. A 4 percent reduction was achieved in the first round. “The first cuts were reducing travel, current expenses, equipment, not filling positions that were open, some personnel reductions,” he recalled. “Fourteen people won’t just walk out the door” without jobs, he said. “We’ve done some shifting of staff into other assignments, caused some reduction in salary, and some have taken a lower salary,” Bouwhuis explained. The bottom financial line is that $2 million has to be trimmed out of a $13 million budget. “We’re looking at facilities budgets, personnel in those budgets, everything. It’s a broad-based budget cut,” he said. “It goes across the board, across all aspects of the institution.” The cuts are coming even as enrollment is growing, follow-

CHESAPEAKE, VA — A jury here recommended a sentence of 38 years and six months for the man convicted of killing an LDS missionary from Bountiful. James Boughton Jr., 22, was found guilty last week of the murder of Morgan Young in January, 2006. On Tuesday, the jury made its sentencing recommendation, which includes 20 years for the murder, five years for malicious wounding and three related firearms charges which carry a mandatory 13 years, according to the Virginian-Pilot, a Chesapeake area newspaper. The judge will formally sentence Boughton in April. While the sentence was near the minimum that could be imposed, Young’s parents said they were OK with the sentence. The prosecution had hoped for the maximum sentence. During the sentencing hearing, the Virginian-Pilot reports that Kathy Young told the court she felt “overwhelming sorrow for the things (Boughton) has done and all the people he has hurt.”

the family’s loss. “There’s absolutely a sense of loss. It never, never leaves you,” she said. “It’s like having your legs or arms cut off — like being an amputee for life.” However, as faithful members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, they believe they will be reunited in the next life. The couple, who have been in Chesapeake since Nov. 9, expressed their appreciation for the support they’ve received, not only from people they know here in Bountiful, but from people in Virginia as well. Mark said the district attorney’s office there have given the couple a lot of support, as have members of the local ward. The local press in Chesapeake has been very respectful, he said. Kathy said they’ve been attending an area ward while they’ve been there. “We’re in the same area where Morgan served, and a lot of people in the ward remember him.” But after six weeks away from home, the couple is ready to return to Bountiful and were planning to fly out as early as Wednesday. mwilliams@davisclipper.com

Kaysville defends snow removal policy BY TOM BUSSELBERG Clipper News Editor KAYSVILLE — “People are saying we need to make tough choices in tough times,” said Kaysville Mayor Neka Roundy Wednesday morning. She was speaking in reference to complaints by Kaysville residents unhappy with the city’s new snow removal policy which seeks to limit overtime for city crews. Under the new policy, major streets will always be plowed immediately after a snowstorm, but other streets won’t be cleared

outside of normal working hours. “This is a budgetary concern,” she said, referring to the city council’s decision to implement costsaving ways, wherever possible, in snow removal. For example, some $7,000 was saved in the handling of last weekend’s snow storm, she said. “Each storm will be addressed individually,” Roundy said. That reflects the snow removal policy, which, unlike an ordinance, can readily be adjusted, revised to meet changing needs. “We do the major streets and sensitive areas, those at higher ele-

vation or that are steep. They could have tons of snow,” the mayor said. A rotating supervisor oversees each major snow removal operation, the mayor explained. That way a group of experts is trained, and monitors such factors as temperature, weather forecast, salt use, and more. “We are very concerned when people are concerned,” she said, referring to discussion at Tuesday night’s city council meeting. “Our small tax increase (implemented several months ago) netted $50,000” to city coffers,

Roundy said. “Over the weekend we were able to save $7,000. “We are looking at ways we can be efficient. The public expects that,” she said. “This is part of our response to the economic situation,” City Manager John Thacker said. “That means controlling costs for personnel, fuel and salt.” The new policy is allowing more snow to accumulate before snow plowing operations are started. “That’s so we don’t have to n See “KAYSVILLE,” p.

Events Center finding ways to trim deficit BY TOM BUSSELBERG Clipper News Editor FARMINGTON — The twoday Double D regional high school rodeo is coming to the Davis County Events Center, here, next May. That two-day event typically pumps thousands of dollars into the Events Center, itself, as hungry high school students take advantage of on-site concession stands. “We hope they’ll bring in about $4,000 above our costs,” said Events Center director David Hansen. “Those high school kids are motivated. They enjoy being at the Events Center,” said County Commission Chair Louenda Downs. That’s just one example of the estimated 400 events, big and small, hosted at what used to be called the FairPark. The name was changed because the county fair may be the biggest event in terms of visitors, but it is only one event, during one week of the year. Of the range of events hosted by the Events Center, Hansen said that would cover everything from a n See “EVENTS,” p. A4

THE LEGISLATIVE HEALTH CARE Reform Task Force (above), has been meeting throughout the past year to come up with a list of suggested reforms.

Health care reform plan unveiled BY BECKY GINOS Clipper Staff Writer SALT LAKE CITY — The Legislative Health Care Reform task force has been chipping away at a mountain of problems throughout the interim period and Tuesday presented an 80-plus page report of suggested reforms. “We came away with three main pieces of legislation to discuss,” said Senate Majority Leader Sheldon Killpack, R-Syracuse. “One we looked at was how to get individuals and small businesses affordable insurance.” Killpack said the group came

up with a viable Internet portal so individuals can shop for insurance by comparing costs. “We have to make sure insurance companies all participate,” said Killpack. “There are some incentives to encourage them to take part like removal of some current mandates. But to make it truly market driven the information needs to be accessible and understandable.” Another part of the plan would be to offer employees who leave their current companies a “miniCOBRA” option to bridge coverage between employers. “It would allow for a stripped down

version that could be converted to a longer plan after a year.” The plan would have fewer mandates, allowing a cost reduction and for those choosing a high deductible option, would trim cost even more. Those who are self-employed will get a break through the new bill proposal by changing the “small group” classification of two or more employees to that of one, providing access to “guaranteed issue” plan coverage for individuals no matter their health history. Killpack said the task force also n See “HEALTH,” p. A4

HAFB airmen aid foster families BY TOM BUSSLEBERG Clipper News Editor OGDEN — About 50 Hill Air Force Base airmen were busy spreading Christmas cheer, Wednesday. They were distributing toys and other items to foster families in Davis, Cache, Morgan and Weber Counties. “It’s a culmination of our community and our servicemen coming together and ensuring children in foster care will have gifts under the tree for Christmas morning,” said Mindy Lundgren. She is retention specialist at Utah Foster Care Foundation, Northern Region. The Foundation’s Giving Tree program allowed foster children to request gifts, Lundgren said. Requests were placed on tags hung on trees at businesses and elsewhere. Response has come from individuals and families, the business community, churches and elsewhere. This is the second year airmen have volunteered, she said. “They pick up the gifts, take all the gifts to each foster parents’ home. It’s really an amazing thing. “Our airmen serve us in Iraq, elsewhere overseas, and also serve us right here at home, in our community,” Lundgren said. “They use their own gas money, vacation time, to do this service. “It really shows a lot of support for our foster kids

and children in care,” she said. “The best gift that anyone can give is care, to give a home,” Lundgren said. “Everyone can do something for children in care. “Not everyone can be a foster parent, but that’s what we’re seeing today with all these gifts that have been turned in, and airmen showing up,” she said. There are nearly 700 children in foster care in Northern Utah, said Debra Lindner, spokesperson for the Foundation. The number of children in care continues to grow, along with the need for more foster parents to care for them. The need is particularly great for those families willing to care for adolescents. Foster children are cared for from birth to their 18th birthday, and often come from abusive or otherwise dysfunctional homes. Davis County families have traditionally been strong in their support, even filling a need that normally isn’t met for homes in Weber County, for example, officials have told the Clipper in the past. Those wishing more information on becoming a foster parent or adoptive parent may visit the Web at www.utahfostercare.org or calling 1-877-392-1114. Donations for Christmas are still welcome. Businesses or individuals wishing to donate are asked to call Lundgren at 1-877-392-1114. tbusselberg@davisclipper.com

Flu vaccine? It’s still not too late BY MELINDA WILLIAMS Clipper News Editor It isn’t too late to get the flu vaccine and health care officials are urging anyone who hasn’t received a vaccination yet to get one soon. Especially with the holiday season coming up. Results of a recent national survey show that only three in 10 adults aged 18 and older have been vaccinated at this point, and while the influenza season has been mild in Utah so far, that is no prediction for the rest of the season which can last through May. The Davis County Health Department has run out of the shots, but that’s no excuse not to get vaccinated. Those between ages 2 and 49 can still receive the flu mist, The health department still has about 900 flu mist doses available, and for those 50 or older, or those who prefer a shot, may go to other providers, such as grocery store pharmacies or private physicians. The department so far has delivered about 5,200 vaccinations to area residents. According to Vener DeFriez, clinical services manager for the health department, the mist is still available at the department’s two clinics in Clearfield, at 140 E. Center Street, which is open Monday,

Not too late to get flu vaccine

n Only three in 10 adults have gotten vaccine. n Vaccine is still available as mist from health department, or shots from area pharmacies. n Flu season could last through May. n Flu is highly contagious Wednesday and Friday and in Woods Cross at 596 W. 750 South, which is open Tuesday and Thursday. Both clinics are open from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., but are closed between 11:45 a.m. and 1 p.m. for lunch. Cost of the vaccine is $28, but may be covered by some insurance plans, including Medicaid. Information on the vaccine and its availability can be found on the county’s influenza hotline at 451-3333, or online at www.immunizeutah.org, which has an influenza vaccine locator. “The health department is interested in getting people vaccinated,” wherever that may be, said health depart-

ment spokesperson Bob Ballew. He said the department ordered both flu shots and flu mist, but expected more people would opt for the mist this year.That didn’t turn out to be the case and the department ran out of the shots. The national survey, released by the Rand Corp., ran through mid-November, and showed not only abysmal numbers among adults who haven’t received the vaccine, but also indicated that only one in five adults said they intended to receive the vaccine during the remainder of the season. The survey also revealed that health care workers, caregivers and those with asthma lag behind other groups for getting vaccinated. Ballew said the department has no way of determining how many Davis County residents have been vaccinated because so many receive the vaccine from pharmacies and private providers, but he believes Davis County would have similar results to the national survey if the numbers were available. “This information is disturbing, but we can use it to identify strategies for improving vaccination coverage,” said state epidemiologist Dr. Robert Rolfs. “We know people are less

likely to get vaccinated after the holidays, so we must do a better job of educating Utahns about the seriousness of influenza and the value of vaccine in preventing it.” Influenza is a very contagious viral infection of the respiratory system. Every year in the United States, 5 to 20 percent of the population gets the flu; more than 200,000 people are hospitalized from complications, and about 36,000 people die from the flu. Symptoms include fever, muscle aches, headache, congestion, runny nose, cough, sore throat and general weakness. The symptoms usually appear one to three days after a person has been exposed to the virus. It’s spread when an infected person coughs or sneezes and sprays droplets which can be inhaled by others. Those who believe they may have the virus are urged to contact their physician immediately. Prescription antiviral drugs, if taken early on, can reduce the severity and duration. Those who do get sick, should rest, drink plenty of liquids, avoid using alcohol and tobacco, take medication to relieve the symptoms and stay home to prevent spreading the disease.

DAVIS COUNTY — Davis schools say they’ll go forward with their planned programs, even though teachers may no longer be getting extra pay to do so. Two days ago, the State Board of Education agreed to wait on the $20 million it had for the teacher incentive program due to economic downturn. The delay came as no surprise to local schools, and some even say it was a smart move. “If they’re going to cut somewhere, that’s the smartest place to start,” said Bountiful Junior High school principal Brent Stephens. “I’ve seen a pretty good attitude here.” The performance pay program was long in the making and was unanimously voted to delay at Tuesday’s Board of Education meeting. Originally, the money was supposed to go to schools on Dec. 1, but the board will continue holding on to it since then to make a decision on what to do. “It’s honestly not going to make much difference here,” said Stephens. Most schools in Davis School District had plans as a school to submit together for performance pay, and distribute the pay at the end of the year after their project was complete. The district was one of almost 40 who had plans submitted for performance pay. Some schools, however, had individual teachers or

departments submit plans. “The teachers have just been so excited about the plans they’ve made, they’ll continue with it regardless,” said Centerville Junior High School principal, Aaron Hogge. Utah Education Association president Kim Campbell said it made sense to cut the program for two reasons. The first was that the plan was flawed from the beginning because it did not match other state education goals. The other flaw was that the plan was to only last one year. After the delay was official, however, Bountiful Junior High school says it will continue with its program anyway. Teachers and administrators will be participating in a new rubric program, designed to help students truly understand what is expected of them. “I know when I was in school I thought it would be cool to see exactly what my teacher wanted,” said Stephens. “I agree we don’t do enough for our educators, but they will do what’s best for the kids,” said Hogge. “We have good people that want to do what’s best.” Teachers who were originally involved with the project will continue their work on it.“We commend teachers for their efforts. They have already spent a lot of time on it,” said Stephens. “We will go ahead with the project without that funding.” sroberts@davisclipper.com

Speed limit on 1200 North a concern BY SHAIN GILLET Clipper Staff Writer WEST BOUNTIFUL — The current 30 mile-per-hour speed limit on 1200 North in West Bountiful is a concern for some residents that live there. “There are roughly six houses along that road,” said Police Chief Randy Lloyd. “It’s pretty much a long stretch of road that leads to a trail.” Although, a few of the res-

idents that have families have voiced concern to the city because they say there are a lot of “speeders” that go down that long stretch. There was also a slight concern mentioned by Lloyd from the operating months of the golf course, as there is a crossing that goes from one hole to another and could be a hazard to those attempting to cross the road. “I don’t think it’s a bad idea to lower the speed limit there,” said Lloyd. “But I don’t

really see a need for it. “I could probably have an officer there for three, maybe four hours at a time and not get one citation reported from it.” Since none of the residents along the road were present at Tuesday’s city council meeting, the council decided to postpone the possible change. “I think it’s important that we get a sense of what these residents are concerned about before taking action,” said council member James

State more diverse than county BOUNTIFUL — While 18 percent of Utah’s population is identified as of minority origin, figures for Davis County are far lower. A University of Utah Bureau of Business & Economic Research report released earlier this week said the state’s diversity is continuing to grow. It noted Salt Lake County’s racial and ethnic minority population was estimated at 24 percent, compared to 35 percent in the nation in 2007. It anticipates the state will boast a 30 percent minority

rate by 2050. The report did not break down data for any other county. However, the U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts for 2006 estimates Davis County’s minority population at 10.6 percent.That includes 6.7 percent of Hispanic or Latino origin, 1.1 percent black, 1.8 percent Asian, 1.6 percent of two or more races, and smaller percentages for other groups. Those smaller groups include six-tenths percent for American Indians, four-tenths of a percent for Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific

Islanders. The Census data also noted that 1.8 percent of businesses were Hispanic owned and 1.3 percent Asianowned, as of 2006. The University of Utah report said that, overall, the increase represents a generational shift. Nearly one-fourth of preschool-age children in Utah and one-third in Salt Lake County in 2007 were estimated to be ethnic or racial minorities. By contrast, less than 10 percent of retirement-age Utahns were estimated to be minorities. tbusselberg@davisclipper.com

Health care reform plan unveiled Events Center finding Continued from p. A1 wants to limit the mounds of paperwork that follows any medical procedure. “It just adds confusion to the consumer,” he said. “You go to the hospital and get piles of paperwork that says ‘do not pay.’ There is just a lot of garbage you receive after a procedure.

We want to get all interested parties together and come up with a way to lower the overhead cost to help the consumer. We are really relying on those parties to come up with that.” The bill also calls for some preference to state contracts that reach a specified dollar amount to offer

health insurance to the employees for the extent of the project. Those who don’t comply could face penalties. Throughout the process of reform, the committee has focused on issues such as transparency in health care cost and services, personal responsibility and providing

health coverage for every Utahn. “The next step is to get feedback on these bills and possibly even vote on it before the session,” said Killpack. “We want to get them in the best form to present to the Legislature. Then these bills will be voted on like any bill.”

Kaysville defends snow removal Continued from p. A1 redo as much,” he said. As is the case virtually anywhere, major streets are plowed first, including on overtime, if needed. “Then we come back on the next regular time available to plow the minor streets,” Thacker explained. “We work the major and then the minor streets. If it’s on a weekend, we just do the major streets until the weekend is over. Then we do the minor streets,” he said. “If we’re done with all of the major streets, they’ll get there (to other streets) as soon as it is efficient,”

Thacker said, while crews and police are still continually checking snow conditions throughout the city. “For example, we had churches in session on Sunday, and they did fine,” as far as traffic flow, he said. “We were checking all of the streets to see if they were usable, passable. “We don’t let it be lifethreatening,” he emphasized of any circumstances. “Our supervisor or on-call person checks the situation when we get word from the police department that there needs to be some work done (at a particular area). “The first thing they do is

scope out what we need, how to proceed,” Thacker said. He responded to questions from some residents who asked why a truck with a plow would go down a street and not plow. “That’s because they’re applying salt, or there is not enough accumulation to plow efficiently. Salt application will help, of course, to lower the freezing temperature and make it more plowable,” the city manager said. The city has 12 snow plowing units available. “We put out units to match the storm,” Thacker said. “That’s another con-

A great job for young people to develop:

Continued from p. A1 ing a trend that usually sees more students enroll in colleges and universities, including technical colleges, when the job market is sagging. “One thing we’ve tried to do with all of our cuts, is preserve the core mission, keep the programs going, make sure we can serve our students through our programs and services,” Bouwhuis emphasized. Action must be taken now because seven months of the institution’s fiscal year budget has already passed, Bouwhuis said. It goes from July 1-June 30. That’s why he and others aren’t waiting until the Legislature convenes, about a month from now. For now, any tuition hike is not in the cards, he said. “We don’t have the ability

cern, that we don’t work everybody at once if we don’t have to, because we have to work them a long time. We want to rotate, not have them go too many hours.” The policy reflects a relatively low tax base and tax rate, Roundy said. The city has just above 70 employees, about half of what some other cities of 26,000 or so residents employ. Thacker reviewed the snow removal policy during Tuesday night’s council meeting. Two residents spoke on the issue. tbusselberg@davisclipper.com

to raise tuition, that has to go through UCAT, then has to be approved by the Board of Regents. “At this point, we as an institution have not discussed any kinds of proposals to move on (as far as tuition),” Bouwhuis said. “With the economic times the way they are, and our enrollment increase, we don’t want to put any more burden on our students at this time.” Tuition is $1.35 an hour, or, for a student taking 30 hours of coursework a week, it would be $40 a week, about $165 a month, $7 or $8 a day. “It’s very difficult this time of year,” he said of having to make the cuts. “But the longer you wait, the more impact it has. Also, you need to give people time to find other employment. It’s not fair to anticipate letting someone go, then letting them know months later.”

ways to trim deficit Continued from p. A1 small family party to a four or five day major event. In December, as an example, events have ranged from private rentals of the Legacy Center to a Wasatch Agility Dog Show, which went Dec. 6 and 7. “Dog shows have definitely helped,” he said, with helping pay the way for the facility. “A couple of years ago we started marketing multiday shows, and that is paying off: dog shows, horse shows.” Revenue from rental of horse barns also helps, whether its ongoing from area horse owners, to rentals related to specific shows, he said. “By the time we take into account the multiplier effect of events, it comes out to be well into the millions of dollars,” he said of events’ financial impact. That multiplier takes into account the many out-oftown people who visit the Events Center, whether for a one-day event of for a week. It counts the impact of hotel stays, eating meals in restaurants, and other purchases. The Bonneville Basin Kennel Club is a recent example of one show’s impact. It’s estimated to

bring in $500,000, alone. “It’s getting lower,” Hansen said of the deficit to the county’s books of the Events Center. “The difficulty we have is that a big portion of our revenue comes off horse stalls (rental). It’s hard to predict. We don’t know what tenants there will be from each show. “We can have every weekend booked, but we never know what the economy will do,” he said. “Even with the expensive cost of diesel, last year, we did really well. This year, the cost of fuel is lower but we don’t know what the economy will do.” Hansen emphasized that “we’re trying to balance between serving the citizens of the county, as well as not being a burden on the rest of the county. Through economic development, we know we have to pay our own way. We’re trying, but it takes time.” Facilities such as the Events Center, often built at least in part to house a county fair, don’t break even. “I don’t think any of them make money,” that is, revenue over costs, Hansen said. tbusselberg@davisclipper.com

Library contracts OK’d FARMINGTON — There is a lot needed to keep the Davis County Library system, or any large entity, going that takes place beyond the shelves. The Davis County Commission, Tuesday, approved a variety of contracts that impact the library, ranging from landscape maintenance to boiler and tower cooling treating service, carpet maintenance, and microfilm and printer maintenance. The microfilm machine is housed at the headquarters library, here, with a $1,000 contract approved.

Industrial Research, meanwhile, had its $2,000plus contract approved for boiler and related work. Also approved was Midwest Office’s $16,121 contract for maintenance at four libraries. And Ornelas Landscape Maintenance was given the go-ahead for grounds maintenance at six libraries, for $10,600. Kaysville City maintains the grounds around the branch there, which is housed in a city-owned building. The library formerly was operated by the city. tbusselberg@davisclipper.com

Centerville Beat: Putting pen to paper with Qwest west has, once again, gotten itself into the news by being deeply, deeply annoyed with UTOPIA. They’ve sent a letter to Centerville claiming that the city’s discussions about using a Redevelopment Agency (RDA) loan to get UTOPIA’s fiber optic network into the ground faster breaks a whole host of laws, and though they haven’t used the word “lawsuit” yet they have sued UTOPIA as recently as 2005. Centerville officials and staff, knowing their history, have already gotten several lawyers involved in the discussion process. My question is, why is Qwest bothering? If asked, I’m quite

certain that they would say something about upholding the legal right, and making absolutely certain that UTOPIA upholds the law to the same standards that everyone else is expected to. If that was their reason then they’ve done an excellent job, because Centerville and their lawyers (one from the city, one from the RDA, and one from UTOPIA) are currently in the process of making absolutely certain that every legal “i” is dotted and every “t” crossed. Thanks to this examination, there is now no chance that the city’s final decision will accidentally trip over state or federal laws, and Qwest should be able to rest easier. More likely, though, is that

they sent the letter to make certain that UTOPIA wasn’t trying to pull themselves back on their feet by using benefits that Qwest themselves can’t get a hold of. It’s a perfectly valid reason, especially from a business perspective, and if the letter had been against Comcast or some other equally mighty conglomerate then I doubt anyone would have even batted an eyelash. Even the 2005 lawsuit, when UTOPIA was still the grand idea that was going to change the face of fiber optics in Utah, made perfect sense. Now, though, UTOPIA is only a shadow of what it once was. Though the network’s new management looks like they’ve stabi-

lized most of the organization’s worst problems, it’s lost all of the initiative it would have needed to truly become a force to be reckoned with (a fact that some attribute to the 18-month delay caused by Qwest’s 2005 lawsuit). The network is lucky just to stay on its feet, and even the RDA help won’t keep it from taking years to establish itself as a solid presence in Centerville. Sending warning letters about this version of UTOPIA makes Qwest either look like they’re kicking the weaker group, or that they still feel threatened by a network that’s still struggling to get its cable into the ground. A much more effective route would be to simply offer more

BY JENNIFFER WARDELL services in Centerville, and point out that they’ve actually been supplying services to residents for a couple of years while UTOPIA has only been talking about it. It’s an image war rather than a legal one, but one that results in much better press. jwardell@davisclipper.com

County library popping with new titles Student cashes in on report card BY JENNIFFER WARDELL Clipper Staff Writer

DAVIS COUNTY — If you’ve been itching to get your hands on some new books for Christmas but don’t want to stretch your wallet quite that far, the Davis County Library is the perfect place to go. The library has acquired several new books over the last little while, and though demand for many of the titles is high there’s always room on the reserved list. Below is just a sampling of some of the titles that have been recently added, just waiting to be brought home. In fiction, Cherie Priest’s “Fathom” offers up a dark taste of the supernatural. A departure from the author’s

Eden More saga, “Fathom,” combines attempted murder, black magic, living statues, and immortality that starts in 1920s Florida. On a less supernatural but equally mysterious note, there’s “Last Post” by British suspense veteran Robert Barnard. The book follows a woman’s efforts to track a mysterious, controversial letter after the death of her mother. Other new fiction books added to the shelves include the romance novels “Seaview Inn” by Sherryl Woods,“Mischief Becomes Her” by Kasey Michaels, and “Reflections and Dreams” by Nora Roberts. In non-fiction, the library is marking the coming inauguration of president-elect Obama with a book about

another president from Illinois, Eric Foner’s “Our Lincoln: New Perspectives on Lincoln and his World.” On a more personal note, the library also offers Jorge Ramos’s “The Gift of Time: Letters From a Father,” a collection Ramos wrote to his children including personal history and life lessons. Other new non-fiction books include R.J. Ruppenthal’s “Fresh Food From Small Spaces: The Square Inch Gardener’s Guide to Year-Round Growing, Fermenting, and Sprouting,” Jon Meacham’s “American Lion: Andrew Jackson at the White House,” and Elizabeth McCracken’s memoir “An Exact Replica of a Figment of My Imagination.” For younger readers, the

library recently acquired “The Runaway Dolls,” the third book in “The Doll People” series by well-known children’s author Ann M. Martin. The series looks at the world, and the adventures that can happen in it, as seen through the eyes of dolls. Other children’s books that have newly found their way onto library shelves include Rob Kidd’s “Bold New Horizons,” the most recent book in a series following the teenage life of “Pirates of the Caribbean’s” Jack Sparrow. Also recently added are Kirsten Mayer’s “Meet Ahsoka Tano” and Gertrude Warner’s “The Mystery of the Traveling Tomatoes.” jwardell@davisclipper.com

School closings? Process begins with plows BY SHALYN ROBERTS Clipper Staff Writer DAVIS COUNTY — When it comes to when schools shut down because of snow, the district’s own snowplow drivers usually initiate the call. According to the Davis School District, it has been at least 10 years since the last time schools were closed due to heavy snowfall. However, the district would like parents to know that there is a process in place to make sure the word gets out.

“The decision to close schools actually occurs in the early morning hours when district snow plow drivers are out attempting to clear parking lots before students arrive for school,” the district announced on its website. If the plow drivers decide the roads are bad, they make a call to the district’s maintenance director, transportation director and facilities administrator. After that, the call goes to an assistant superintendent and the superintendent of schools. Those people then review the road and

Former council member appointed to new board BY SHAIN GILLET Clipper Staff Writer WEST BOUNTIFUL — Roy Johnson, a former West Bountiful city council member, is now a new Board member for the South Davis Sewer District. Johnson, who served a four-year term as city council member from 2003-2007, was appointed by the city council Tuesday. The seven candidates pre-

sented their cases Tuesday night as part of the city’s Public Hearing, which Mayor James Behunin stated was a part of Tuesday night’s agenda items even though it wasn’t specifically stated. Johnson was chosen from the six other candidates, including another former West Bountiful council member as well as current council member James Bruhn. sgillet@davisclipper.com

Club honors students NORTH SALT LAKE — Bountiful Breakfast Exchange Club members honored three students last week who have gone from struggling to excelling at their studies. Thomas Peterson, Kristine Howarth and William Medina, all students at Mountain High School, each received a plaque and the club’s congratulations last week. Peterson, who wants to work as a certified nursing assistant, said he chose the nursing program because he loves being around the elder-

ly. In addition to his Mountain High classes, Peterson is also taking classes at the Davis Applied Technology Center. Howarth, has been a student at Mountain High for two years and plans on entering the dental assistant program at DATC. She said her parents have been a major influence in changing her life. Medina is also planning on becoming a certified nursing assistant, and said he made changes in his life because of a desire to help people. mwilliams@davisclipper.com

weather reports from law enforcement and highway representatives. The district said the safety of students is the final thing going into consideration of closing the schools. Employee safety and busing and security also come into play. Once the decision is made, the superintendent makes it as early as possible and spreads the word through area radio and television stations. If the superintendent decides not to close schools, media stations will not be contacted and students will be

expected to be in school. Parents can also call the 402-5500 or visit www.davis.k12.ut.us to see if the schools are closed. If the schools do close due to weather, that day must be made up. That means schools will be open during a previously-declared holiday or even a Saturday. The district stressed that “if a parent feels weather conditions are too hazardous, no matter what the district decides, they can keep children home and no consequences will take place because of that decision.”

BY SHALYN ROBERTS Clipper Staff Writer CENTERVILLE — When Syracuse High School sophomore Calab Ottenstein walked into the Centerville Zions Bank branch to cash in on his As, he was entered in a drawing for a scholarship and won. Last Monday, Ottenstein was told he won the regional drawing for a $100 scholarship in Zions Bank’s Pay for As program. Ottenstein’s name was called during Syracuse High School’s morning announcements earlier this month. The program involves all students in Utah and Idaho who are in grades seven through 12. Students simply need to take their report card in to any Zions Bank branch

and receive $1 for every A on that card. That money is deposited into a savings account for them, and their names are entered in a drawing. There are almost 200 different drawings for scholarships raining from $100 to $1,000. Students have until Jan. 23, 2009 to submit their report cards for those scholarships. “We at Zions Bank are thrilled to offer cash rewards to teens with A ‘ s.’ It’s a great way for us to recognize students like Calab who excel in their studies,” said Zions Bank Centerville office manager Brett Barber.

The father is right — but I’m glad he lost The views expressed in this column are the opinion of the writer and not necessarily those of the ownership or management of this newspaper. hilosopher Bertrand Russell wrote, “The place of the father in the modern suburban family is a very small one.” A Davis County man would disagree. He wanted to be part of his son’s life. The Utah Court of Appeals flattened his wish – and even though I feel the father was victimized, the court’s final decision was for the best. The father – now merely the biological father – is Nikolas Thurnwald, a resident of Syracuse. When he discovered he was to become a father, the unmarried Thurnwald decided to father the baby. The mother, however, placed the infant up for adoption, giving Thurnwald a high hurdle to jump. Under 2004 Utah law, an unmarried biological father who wished to parent a child had to file with-

Letters Tax hike should come with sale Editor: Property tax is the worst tax that we have. It takes our security away from us. We work all our adult lives to get our house and property paid for, so no matter what ill fate awaits us in our old age, we will have a place to live. But government has passed laws that allow themselves to take our hard earned money away from us, in the form of property taxes, and give it to someone else. If we get into a bind and cannot pay our property tax they can take our house and property from us and we are out on the street. Many people are finding this true today and have a family to provide for also. Our government officials can arbitrarily raise our property taxes at any time to almost any amount they decide.That is a poor law we have let them pass and

in 24 hours detailing how he would afford to care for the baby and who would look after the tyke when the father was working. Thurnwald’s plan wasn’t detailed enough. In addition the 24-hours extended into a holiday so Thurnwald’s notice was submitted 48 hours after the child’s birth. According to his lawyer, Thurnwald’s intentions were easily known even though he didn’t write out “the magic words” on a piece of legal paper. I feel sorry for Thurnwald. He is indeed a victim of discrimination since an unmarried mother is not required to detail a plan and state her

income. Thurnwald should have received a reprieve on the 24hour time limit as well. The baby was born on a Sunday, the subsequent Monday was Labor Day, so he couldn’t physically file a child-raising plan within 24 hours since the courts were closed. But despite all the sympathy for Thurnwald, the court ruled in the best interest of the child. “Baby Boy Doe” has now spent four years with the same family – “his”family. The child wouldn’t understand that a “stranger” was taking him away from his mother and father due to imperfections and wrong-headed technicali-

enforce. If property values around us increase, our taxes are automatically increased. We haven’t sold our house, so the value doesn’t matter to us. We have to pay the increased taxes each year as if it was worth more to us. It still just holds our family and isn’t worth more to us unless we sell it. I feel the taxes should not be increased just because the surrounding property value has increased. When we sell the property and we get more dollars for it, then the increased tax could be assessed. We only get the increased dollars once and we would get taxed for the increase once. We shouldn’t have to pay for the increase year after year when it is still only housing our family. In other words don’t charge us for the increased value unless we cash in on the increased value. According to the Lord’s law of tithing He asks 10 percent of our increase that we get from our labors or other sources. That means we get the increase. Not 10 percent of the value of a person’s talents that have increased the value of his

property that he owns, just the increase that we take. Why don’t we follow His lead and make our property tax a percentage of our property when we buy it and only change the tax when we sell it and get the added dollars? Actually, it would be better to do away with property tax, so we can’t lose our place to live, once it is paid for, and use sales tax only to collect our needed operating funds. The rich spend more money so will pay more taxes. The poor spend less money so will pay less taxes. That is fair. Some people say that the poor will be paying a higher percentage of their income with a flat tax, so it isn’t fair to them. But the scriptures don’t say the poor should pay a smaller percentage of tithing than the rich. God asks 10 percent from each person regardless of how rich or poor they are. So if He thinks it is fair it must be fair. Let’s rework the taxing system so it is fairer for the property owner.

ties. In the movie, Duck Soup, Groucho Marx jokes,“Even a five-year old would understand this. Send somebody to fetch me a child of five!” Sorry, Groucho, but a child of five wouldn’t understand Thurnwald’s dilemma. Snatching the little boy from his family would be harmful to three people; Thurnwald’s celebration and vindication wouldn’t replace the hurt. The system didn’t do the right thing for Thurnwald four years ago. He has a legitimate gripe, one the Utah Legislature should correct through a change of statute in the next session. But the eventual aim of the law should be justice. The law can at times be cruel, but an adult can accept the cruelty better than a four-year old boy who cares more about being tucked in bed each night by the only parents he has ever known, than about biology. Yes, Thurnwald lost. But his son was a winner in an unfair drama.

It’s good to see recycling works Editor: A big thank you to Gary Blowers and all his staff at the Bountiful Streets Department. I know they have had quite a bit of extra work recently getting all the new recycling cans out to everyone and answering all the questions that come up anytime a new program is started. It has been great to see the recycling cans out at the curb piled high with materials, that are now destined for a second use instead of being destined for the dump. Raymond Ward Bountiful

Arc: $75,000 debt could sink agency BY SHALYN ROBERTS Clipper Staff Writer SALT LAKE CITY — The Arc, a 50-year old agency that affects people all over the state-including Davis Countywho need holiday help, announced that despite the need to pay off more than $75,000 in debt, Santa will still be coming. The Arc of Utah board of directors have given orders to bring Santa and pay off the debt. The Arc said it is struggling with overwhelming debt from all the help it gives to low-income people and people with intellectual disabilities. The Arc serves people through the Holiday Gift Box Program, for which donors are still being sought out. Businesses are still adopting ornaments for individuals and giving them to their employees as gifts as a way to help the community. But The Arc says it still needs more

The Arc will only accept money designated to the Holiday Gift Box and money specifically designated to debt reduction. The Arc of Utah board of directors said this is an attempt to sort out the financial difficulties and insure no further debt is caused. The recycling program has been reduces to only include items dropped off at The Arc at Thrifttown in Salt Lake City and neighborhood, business and church drives.

CENTERVILLE — Centerville City officials have met with architects to plan out the elements of the upcoming city hall expansion and remodeling that fit within the $800,000 budget the city has earmarked. The elements, which focus mostly on the court and police department, will be divided into different phases for construction. The first phase, and the most expensive one according to architect James B. Glascock’s estimates, is an addition and remodel to the building’s now-cramped judicial court. Also included on the list at about the same time are exterior sitework upgrades around the dumpster and pump house, and a later phase will work on office cubicles for the

court clerks. Most of the other work will focus on the also cramped police department, though these phases will largely deal with remodeling. One of the earliest phases scheduled here will be the patrol division remodel, though later work is also expected to be done on the evidence and interview rooms, the conference room, and reception and dispatch. Centerville City has been saving for this expansion and remodel for the last several years,though there were points when constructing a sperate storage building for the police department was also seen as a possibility.The city has said that they will rely only on the $800,000 they’ve saved for the project and not borrow more money at any point.

JOHN ROWE MOYLE, played by Kaysville actor Bruce Newbold (above), begins making his wooden leg in a scene from the movie. Inset: Director T.C. Christensen.

The dedication of a ‘Stonecutter’ BY JENNIFFER WARDELL Clipper Staff Writer DAVIS COUNTY — Sometimes, the most amazing stories can be found where you least expect them. “Only a Stonecutter,” a film by local director T.C. Christensen that has recently been released on DVD, tells the story of pioneer John Rowe Moyle, the farmer and stonecutter who walked 22 miles a day to work on the Salt Lake Temple despite the fact that he had only one leg. “I love everyman stories,” said Christensen. This year marked the 200th anniversary of Moyle’s birth.“Moyle was never called to a position that would bring him accolades. He was just a guy who stuck with it and did something extraordinary. That really

appealed to me.” Moyle, whose farm in Alpine is now known as Historic Moyle Park, had already been working on the temple for several years before losing his leg in a farm accident (a kick from the cow shattered his lower leg bone). After the amputation healed, Moyle built up his endurance to walking on the painful wooden leg until he could once again make the trek into Salt Lake. Later in his life, Moyle was also the one who carved “Holiness to the Lord,” on the side of the temple. “He was 77 years old, which today would be like someone in his 90s, and had to climb 109 feet of scaffolding with a wooden leg,” said Christensen.“But like with everything else, he just had to do it and he did it.” Bruce Newbold, the Kaysville actor who plays Moyle in the film, worked with Chris-

tensen to study out every piece of available information on their subject. Though Moyle didn’t leave a journal, the two researched everything from Moyle’s handcart company to the wooden leg (complete with articulating ankle) that he made for himself. “We took all of these things into consideration,” said Newbold. For certain scenes in the last part of the film, his leg was erased via computer.“It showed what kind of stubborn, disciplined, self-reliant man he was.” Christensen, whose work also includes “Gordon B. Hinckley: A Giant Among Men” and “Forever Strong,” believed so strongly in the story that he decided to make it independently before seeking out Excel Entertainment to distribute. “I spend my life making movies for other people,” said Christensen.“But every once in

awhile I just decide ‘This is the story I want to tell.’” In the end, it’s that story that he wants to last longest in the minds of everyone who watches “Only a Stonecutter.” “I don’t want people to see the movie and then discuss scenery or filmmaking techniques,” said Christensen.“I hope that people who see the film will think about the lesson that Moyle teaches. There’s so much that can be done by a common man who sticks to his principles.” It’s a lesson that was deeply felt by many of the people involved with the film. “Movies like this make us hold a mirror up to ourselves and ask ‘Do I have that kind of dedication and courage?’” said Newbold. “‘Am I a complainer, or am I a goer and a doer?’”

Met Opera holds local auditions BY JENNIFFER WARDELL Clipper Staff Writer

DAVIS COUNTY — It may not get as much publicity as “American Idol,” but it does get far more respect. The Utah District of the Metropolitan Opera National Council will be holding its annual auditions on Jan. 2-3 at the Libby Gardner Hall on the University of Utah Campus. Aspiring opera singers from Davis County, along with the rest of the state, are welcome to attend the free auditions, which are the first level in a competition that could

The district level competition is divided into two sections — the preliminary competition on Jan. 2 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the final competition on Jan. 3 at 6:30 p.m. The winners of the district auditions will go onto regional auditions, after which they will head to New York to compete for prizes and the chance to receive training from the Met staff and perform in the final gala. At the 2007 competition (the most

current year with a report) 39 singers from five states competed in the Utah District preliminary auditions. Most of the performers were from Utah universities, and each sang an aria of their choice as well as an aria chosen from a list of five prepared by the judges. One of the judges at the competition was Davis County native Celena Shafer, the winner of the 1999 district auditions who has gone on to a national singing career. This year she has performed with the New York Philharmonic, the Oklahoma City Philharmonic, and the Phoenix Symphony, and will perform in “Don Pasquale” with the Utah Symphony and Opera in 2009.

Rhyme and Reason SONG FOR SANTA (by Kolette Montague) Our family all believe in Santa from Grandpa to the tiny girls and boys. Every single year we watch for magic deer and a sleigh full of packages and toys. Our family all believe in Santa. His spirit fills our homes with Christmas cheer. Moms and dads, grams, and gramps, sisters, cousins, uncles, aunts wait for Santa to visit us each year. At Christmastime our family gets together shares stories, songs, memories and love. We laugh and we cry, there’s a twinkle in each eye, and we listen for those sleigh bells high above.

BY CECIL SCAGLIONE Special to the Clipper As we advance in age, we also are more likely to become accidents waiting to happen. While many motorists are aware that their odds of avoiding an accident diminish every time they steer their car into traffic, the majority of folks are oblivious to the most obvious dangers – the perils around the house. More than two-thirds of the almost 2 million seniors treated each year in emergency rooms for injuries resulting from falls were hurt at home. Even more insidious are the pitfalls that occur within your body. Diminishing balance, vision, and muscle strength are being recognized as causes of falls as much as tree-uprooted sidewalks, prescription drugs that make you drowsy, and slippers left lying around the living room.

Most falls are caused by seniors tripping over a threshold or a protruding corner of a rug or tile. High on the list of dangers are: • insufficient lighting around the house; • slippery floors, patios and decks; • lack of handrails, especially in bathrooms and along stairs; • reaching precariously high or low for something, such as a wall plug or oncea-year decorations stored high in a closet shelf; • footwear without antiskid soles; •loose clothing that might cause tripping, and •clutter. Growing in fall-prevention importance in the minds of many experts on aging are such issues as balance, depth-perception, and nutrition. The last becomes especially important for people with diabetes, since lack of food can lead to light-heatedness, dizziness, and

blurred vision. So can quick movements, such as jumping out of bed or a chair to answer the telephone. Even oldsters who exercise regularly can have problems with balance, according to medical reports. Balance can be improved by some simple exercises, such as standing on one leg a few times a day. Doctors warn that you should do this while having your hand on a counter or chair for support so you don't fall. Almost everyone agrees the disciplined moves of tai chi are an excellent way to improve balance. Discuss with your doctor what course you'd like to pursue to strengthen yourself against falls. There are some things you can do immediately to help ward off these dangers. Plug in small night lights around the house for better maneuvering at night. Avoid having dark furniture and dark rugs around

the house. Contrasting colors make it easier to discern possible disaster areas. A coiled black lamp cord on a dark rug, for example, can be almost invisible. Mark thresholds and stair edges. You can do this with contrasting materials or strips of colored tape from your handy hardware store. Add a hand rail to your front steps as well as those steps leading to your patio. And, while you're at it, install motion-detector lights out there to help you get around the yard as well as serve as an anti-burglar warning system.

Hanukkah, a time of lights, rededication BY MELINDA WILLIAMS

Hanukkah begins on the 25th day of the Jewish month of Kislev, which, because the Jewish calendar is different than the Gregorian, means the date of Hanukkah varies. Known as the Festival of Lights, Feast of Dedication or Feast of the Maccabees, Hanukkah commemorates the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem by Judas Maccabee in 165 BC. The Jews of the time were willing to put up with an oppressive ruler because they were allowed to worship as they chose. But Syria’s ruler, Antiochus Epiphanes, who governed the Jews, wanted to meld all the people of his kingdom into one body of like-minded subjects. To do that, he tried to force the Jews

into worshipping Zeus of whom he claimed to be the earthly manifestation. He forbade Jews to keep their Sabbath, own copies of their sacred writings or practice circumcision. Instead, he erected in the Jewish temple in Jerusalem an altar to Zeus and even sacrificed pigs. Further, he commanded all Jews to join in similar sacrifices in Jerusalem and in the villages. When an aged priest named Mattathias was ordered to participate in a sacrifice to Zeus at the village of Modin, he revolted. With five sons at his side and backed by followers, he took a stand. His son Judas defeated four Syrian armies and forced a fifth to retreat. He

was able to recapture Jerusalem, except for a garrisoned castle. The temple was then purged of abominations and Jewish worship restored. The temple was rededicated to God, with festivities lasting eight days. According to tradition, only one vessel of pure olive oil, sealed by the high priest and necessary for the rededication ritual, could be found, but that burned miraculously for eight days. Today, a major feature of the celebration is the lighting of candles in a candelabra called a menorah. Small gifts are often exchanged each evening as the menorah is lighted. mwilliams@davisclipper.com

Our beloved Karl Fairbanks Keeler (72), of Bountiful, Utah, passed away at his home on December 13, 2008, after a year long battle with cancer. He fought through this awful disease w i t h courage and a positive attitude. K a r l was born November 13, 1936, in Magrath, Alberta, Canada, to David and Afton Keeler. He grew up on a farm outside of Magrath and retained a deep love of farming throughout his life. He served an LDS mission in Denmark from 1955-1957. After his mission, he attended BYU, and while home during a school break, he was introduced to Norma, a beautiful lady from Calgary, by his sister, Lovina. Karl and Norma quickly fell in love and were married in the Cardston, Alberta temple in 1961. Karl graduated from BYU with a Bachelor’s degree in Economics and later received a Masters Degree in Agricultural Economics. He began his professional career co-founding the Canadian government's CANFARM program, which introduced computerized financial and analysis systems to farming. He received a Distinguished Alumni Award from BYU for his agricultural economics work at CANFARM. In 1976, he moved to Bountiful to work as a director in the LDS Welfare Services Department. In 1986, he transferred to LDS Farm Management Company where he was a V.P. In this job, he managed farms around the world. During his time at FMC, he took a leave of absence to serve as a mission president in the Canada Winnipeg Mission from 1988-1991. After retiring in 2004, he and Norma served a mission in Denmark. Throughout his life Karl was a kind and thoughtful friend, father, and brother. He always put others before himself, and he loved his family dearly. He worked hard, played hard, and loved being with his grandchildren at Bear Lake. Karl was a man of integrity and is a testament that one man can make a huge difference in the lives of others. He will be deeply missed. Karl is survived by his loving wife, Norma, and their five children: Donald (Maria) of Texas; Joseph (Lori) of New Mexico; Janice (Tim) Pehrson of Utah; Karl (Kristen) of Iowa: and Trevor (Jennifer) of Utah.

Value Speak By Joseph Walker

13 days of Christmas: Out-nicing each other ’ve got to be honest: at first I wasn’t exactly sold on the idea when my wife, Anita, proposed it during a recent family dinner. “Why don’t we each do the 13 days of Christmas for each other?”she said. “Only instead of giving each other turtle doves and French hens and golden rings, we’ll give each other little acts of kindness.” “Like if you gave me the new ‘Rock Band’ video game,” Jon told his sister, Beth. “That would be a great act of kindness.” “No, that’s not what I’m talking about,” Anita said. “These acts of kindness are not things that cost money – they only cost our time, attention and creativity.” You could almost hear the gears engaging in Jon’s17-year-old brain. “But ‘Rock Band’ takes a lot of creativity,” he said. “And I promise to spend a lot of time on it and give it all of my attention.” “We’re not going to spend money on each other,” Anita said firmly. “We’re going to perform acts of service for each other” “That sounds like a lot of . . . you know . . . work,” I said, simultaneously channeling the Grinch, Ebenezer Scrooge and the guy who melted Frosty the Snowman – whoever he may be. “It doesn’t have to be work,” Anita said. “These don’t have to be big things. Just little things to say that we’re thinking about each other, and that we care.” Even at my Grinchiest I could see that this is a good idea, aimed at helping our family feel the Spirit of Christmas through love and kindness and service to each other. And for the most part it has worked. Of course, there was the time on Sunday when I was preparing to take my turn doing the dinner dishes. In

this case, “preparing” meant I was watching a football game while the dishes sat on the kitchen counter, awaiting my attention. “Beth is making cookies,” I explained to Anita. “I’m just waiting for her to finish making her mess, then I’ll clean it up as my service to her today.” Unfortunately, 19-yearold Beth had other ideas. As soon as she put her cookies in the oven she started doing the dishes. “What do you think you’re doing?” I asked. “I’m doing your dishes as my service to you,” Beth said, smiling. “Merry Christmas!” “You can’t do that!” I said. “Why not?” “Because I was going to clean up your mess as my act of service to you!” “Too late!” she said. “You’ll have to find something else!” She returned to the dishes for a moment, then she announced to her mother: “As soon as I finish in here I’m going to give you a foot rub!” I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. “You can’t do that!” I said. “Why not?” “Because I was going to do that as my service to her!” I explained. “Too late!” she said. “I called it first!” That’s sort of how it has gone this week: first come, first to serve in a desperate attempt to out-nice each other. And even though I tend to be a little slow on the kindness uptake, I have felt the Spirit of Christmas – which is, at its heart, the Spirit of Love – as I have sought opportunities to serve those who I love most but who, I’m ashamed to say, I often serve least. Especially when it seems like . . . you know . . . work.

DAVIS COUNTY — Each year, AARP tries to recognize employers who have offered good policy and a friendly work environment toward workers age 50 and older, and this year’s deadline for applications is Friday, Feb. 13. AARP stresses that more and more boomers are closing in on 60 years old, and are still out in the workplace. Any person or business from Davis County interested in sending in an application for the award can do so at www.aarp.org/bestemployers. “AARP recognizes that the future workforce will depend on

50-plus workers, which is why every year we honor companies that are industry leaders in establishing policies and practices that meet the needs of older workers,” said AARP Utah State Director Rob Ence. According to AARP statis-

tics, estimates are that by 2016, just more than one-third of the total U.S.workforce will be age 50 or older. The AARP Best Employers awards recognize organizations that offer policies and practices that appeal to workers 50 and

older, including flexible work options, training/learning opportunities, competitive health and retirement benefits, and age-neutral performance and appraisal systems. sroberts@davisclipper.com

LEGACY PARKWAY national designation is being sought, which could mean funding for improvements, more. tion, Hess said. That and other issues can be worked out over time, he said. For example, with grant funding from federal sources, including county match, further improvements can be made. A number one concern is construction of restrooms along the trail. Currently, no such facilities exist anywhere near the trail, Hess said. Trail signage, ongoing maintenance, other improvements could be implemented via a phased approach, he told the commissioners. The Legacy Parkway was designated as a state scenic byway in 2002, years before

the highway opened. On Wednesday, application seeking national designation was to be submitted, Hess said. The biggest benefit to achieving that designation would be funding, he said. In addition, code protections would be possible, such as not allowing billboards, and also uniform planning. “This is a living document. We can add, detract,” said County Commissioner Alan Hansen. In relation to the parkway discussion, commissioners approved a modified general plan. tbusselberg@davisclipper.com

FARMINGTON — Steps are progressing to make it possible to take the new Legacy Parkway Trail onto Jordan River trails, and beyond. County Commission Chair Louenda Downs reaffirmed the partnership that exists between Davis County, Salt Lake County, Salt Lake City, and other government entities, Tuesday. With ongoing plans to make it easier to walk and ride those trails, a press conference and “Lake to Lake Vision” Blueprint Jordan River was due to be held Wednesday afternoon, as the Clipper went to press, in Salt Lake City. As a corollary to that, County Trails Planner Scott Hess noted that use and acceptance of the Legacy trails has been positive. “It’s amazing, I hear good comments from our city representatives and trails people,” he said. “The number one comment I hear is ‘why isn't it paved all the way to Salt Lake?’” “(Salt Lake) Mayor (Ralph) Becker said he likes to bike on the Legacy Highway,” Downs said. Another question, now that snow has fallen, is why it’s not paved. That’s up to individual cities or the county in the 3 1/2 miles unincorporated area that is under county jurisdic-

Lady Wildcats roll to 54-21 win over Vikings

Ron L. Brown

BY SHAIN GILLET Clipper Staff Writer BOUNTIFUL — Xojian Harry, while only a sophomore, is starting to look like she’s been playing for the Woods Cross Lady Wildcats for four years. Tuesday night, she continued that look, finishing with 17 points, three steals and two rebounds as Woods Cross beat the Lady Vikings 54-21. The first quarter showcased Woods Cross’s defense, as they only allowed three points while running stride for stride with the Vikings both on offense and

am the worst basketball player on this planet. I can’t dribble, I can’t shoot, I can’t rebound. I can, however, pass because I was the youngest of five brothers (and a sister) who were all great athletes. These four brothers could play any sport. We’d play basketball sometimes and I was not allowed to shoot or dribble. “Pass the ball, Scotty! That’s your job!”

It was their nice way of saying, “pass the ball or we’ll pound you.” So I passed the ball. And then one afternoon I learned the craft of setting screens. This was the greatest thing I had ever found about basketball. I could stand there and have someone run full steam into me, knocking out a tooth or hearing a defender SCOTT SCHULTE groan while Sports Editor hitting the floor, and not break a sweat doing it. What a great thing for a wrestler. I have always loved watching basketball and Larry Bird was my favorite player. Of course

defense. Viewmont’s first two possessions ended up being turnovers, as Nikki Fernandes and Aarika Andersen both stole the ball away, leading to the first points of the game. Fernandes followed the Wildcats first two points with three of her own, and Harry scored nine of her teams 19 points to take a commanding lead after the first quarter. Wildcats Viewmont, who so far has come 54 close in many Vikings games but have 21 fallen short in the end, was only able to score three points; once on a field goal and another from the free throw line. Viewmont’s defense started to show their defensive prowess in the second quarter, outscoring the ‘Cats and cutting into their deficit. The Vikings started their run after a steal and lay-up by Leah Ellertson. A few moments later, team mates Jasmine Godfrey and Samantha Sappenfield put together six of the Vikings next eight points. They outscored the Lady Wildcats by two points in that quarter, cutting their deficit to 14 at the half. The Lady Wildcats came out of the first half on fire. While Viewmont made valiant efforts to slow them down, Jami Mokofisi and Aubrey Haddock were tearing up the floor. Their efforts started with Mokofisi pulling down two rebounds, nabbing a steal and scoring two points. Haddock had soon followed, scoring four points in less than two minutes as they continued to extend their lead. The Vikings; however, were still searching for their first points of the half. Harry, along with Fernandes and Andersen, also stepped in to help in the third. Together they finished off most of the scoring in the quarter as the ‘Cats dropped 16 points, extending their lead to near triple that of Viewmont’s. The ‘Cats were slowed down in the fourth quarter, but still managed to outscore the Lady Vikings n See “LADY,” p. D3

Bird could shoot, rebound, pass and even dribble. But what a lot of people didn’t know about Bird was that he set a mean screen. Give the ball to a teammate and Bird would stand firm as the defender would run into him. One of the greatest players to ever lace ‘em up was willing to take the hit! If it was good enough for Bird, then it was good enough for me. And if it was good enough for Bird, then it should be good enough for any player out there. My second favorite screen setter was John Stockton. The smallest and one of the meanest players to ever play in the NBA, I loved watching Stockton when he would set a screen. Pow! Down goes the defender. In both cases, with Bird and Stockton, the bottom line was winning. If it meant these two super stars taking a hit for their

team, so be it. Many times, especially on television, it was completely missed by the fans. Only when it was a vicious hit or foul did the TV crews even try to pay attention to which player set the screen. And we wonder how a player got so open for a wide open jump shot? Bird was notorious for screaming at teammates who missed shots for which he had set the screen. “If I’m going to get hit, he better make the shot!” Bird would tell reporters after a game. I was at the Boston Garden when the Celtics hosted the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 1 of the 1986 Eastern Conference Finals. I sat in my obstructed view seat at the Boston Garden.

Darts get hard Snow-proof exercise for winter win on the road SOUTH JORDAN — After a tough loss last week, the Darts were looking for redemption as they traveled to Bingham Tuesday night in a tough battle against the second-ranked Miners. They were able to rebound with great shooting and a 77-67 upset win. The Darts made eight three-pointers as a team. Davis looked like a much different team after their previous loss to Alta. The 25 points scored against the Hawks Darts was Davis’ 77 lowest point Miners total in five 67 years, when they lost a 4026 game to Orem. “We saw these guys make threes all the time last year in (Junior Varsity) and the year before in sophomore ball,” Davis Head Coach Jay Welk said. “We’re trying to figure out our own identity this year with so many new faces on the court. I think we’re getting there.” The Darts are now 2-2 in this early yet tough schedule. So far their opponents have compiled a .650 winning percentage in preseason action. Davis has a strong nucleus of seven senior regulars, but returns no starters from last year’s 21-1 team. Many of Davis’ points came from behind the three point line. Leading the charge was senior small forward Trevor Daniels, as he led all scorers with 25 points, 12 coming from the threepoint line. One of the regulars from last season’s rotation, James Cowser, has begun to assert himself in the paint the last couple of games. The 6’4 senior is now averaging 11.3 points per game after scoring 13 against the Miners. That’s a definite jump considering his previous three point output in the Darts opener against the Jordan Beetdiggers two weeks ago. “We are a small club and we need James to give us some sort of paint presence,” Welk added. “Teams will just defend us hard on the outside if they know we have no inside game to keep them honest.” The story of the Bingham game were the Dart’s guards. Aside from Daniels’ 25 points, Chris Larrabee and Kelvin Taylor combined for 23 points for Davis. What helped Davis the most against the Miners was strong first and third quarters. The Darts were able to stave off Bingham rallies to end the half and the game because they had outscored the Miners 48-26 in the first and third quarters. Another strong performance was put in from forward Jordan Welk. After getting shut out completely in their opener, the senior has scored in double figures two of the last three games, including 14 against Bingham. Davis continues their road march this weekend down at a tournament at SUU and then don’t play another game until their

DAVIS COUNTY — Just because there are mountains of snow outside doesn’t mean your workout has to hibernate for the winter. With a little preplanning, some minor equipment and a sense of imagination, it’s possible to stay in shape no matter how bad the weather gets outside. From workout videos to stair climbing to dancing your heart out, there are any number of ways to get active without ever having to leave your front door. “There are a lot of things people can do indoors,” said Lora Erickson, a nutritionist and personal trainer from Bountiful. “It all depends on what you have in the house.” One quick way to a snowfree workout are exercise videos, which can guide people through everything from aerobics to pilates. For those who don’t have any already in the house (or are sick of the ones they do have), some titles available through the Davis County Library include “Pilates Weight-Loss Workout for Dummies” and “Sit and Be Fit: All Sitting Exercises.” For those who want to build their own routine, however, Erickson suggests either buying a trainer that will allow you to move your bike indoors or small free weights (10 to 15 pounds) that can be found at local

EQUIPMENT such as small handweights (above) or even a set of stairs can offer great exercise indoors. retail stores. Even a simple set of stairs can offer a pretty good workout when a person repeatedly climbs it while paying attention to their heart rate.

Resistance bands are also a possibility, especially on exercises that other people might use free weights for. Even for those who aren’t experienced at using the bands, they can help fill in

on a fundamental that most people forget. “A lot of times people forget about stretching,” said Erickson. “It has a lot of value in terms of staying healthy.” Some people, however, may feel they need a guide, at which point the best place to go is your computer. There are several sites that can walk you through different stretching and exercise programs, including www.runnersworld.com, w w w. s p a r k p e o p l e . c o m (video demonstrations), and www.blondrunner.com (side links). YouTube also has several demonstration videos, particularly when it comes to stretching. If all of this sounds too complicated, however, you can always turn on your radio. According to Erickson, spending the afternoon dancing to music can be a workout adaptable to the whole family. “It’s great to do with your kids,” she said. “Even nice weather can be limiting when you have little kids.” If you get sick of staying indoors, however, or a glimpse of sunshine grants a bit of athletic courage, Erickson points out that even a lot of snow isn’t such a bad thing. “They make such good equipment now that you can go out in pretty much any weather,” she said. “If nothing else, we are waterproof.” jwardell@davisclipper.com

Judge pushes past Bountiful BY SCOTT SCHULTE Clipper Sports Editor BOUNTIFUL — The pre-season is a learning process. This is what Bountiful coach Mike Maxwell said Tuesday night after his team squander a five point lead in the final quarter of its game with Judge Memorial en route to a 46-42 loss. “This is what the pre-season is all about,” Maxwell said. “Learning. Of course it’s nicer to learn and win, but we are in a learning process.” The Braves trailed 11-9 after the quarter and enjoyed a 19-19 tie at the halftime break. Bountiful outscored Judge in the third and when Travis Parrish found Jeff Moncur for a shot, it looked like the Braves might pull away. With three minutes to play, Judge led 38-36 and Bountiful called time out.

After the time out, Christian Taylor found Sean Carey for a slam to knot the game for the last time. Judge pulled away in the final moments of the game hitting on its free throw opportunities. “One of the things we need to understand as a team, especially in a close game, is that the ball needs to go through S e a n (Carey),” Maxwell said. “Christian did a great job Bulldogs with the feed 46 to Sean out Braves of time out. The team 42 just needs to understand we need to get the ball in Sean’s hands.” Another area Maxwell saw as a concern was understanding when and when not to dribble. “We have to use the dribble when it’s there and know when to pass the ball around in other times,” he said. “We played a team that was a slow tempo and we have to figure out how to push tempo when we get into this kind of situation.” Although in defeat, Maxwell did see signs of promise. “There were times in the game when we looked good. When we were playing the way we should play, but we can’t shoot 35 percent and expect to win.” Bountiful also had trouble with the assist-to-ratio area coughing up the ball 15 times as compared to just 12 assists. “We can’t be behind in the turnover-ratio area of the game,” Maxwell said. “We have to do a better job of taking care of the ball. “I have confidence in this team. I know they will do what’s needed for us to get better. It’s a process and we’ll get back after it at practice.” The Braves were led by Carey’s 12 points while Chris Maxwell and Parrish finished with eight each. Taylor had seven points, four assists and a steal to go with Jeff Moncur’s four steals and three assists. For Judge, Centerville resident Zack Myar finished with four assists and a steal and Bountiful player Mark Carman had one steal. sschulte@davisclipper.com

BY SCOTT SCHULTE Clipper Sports Editor KAYSVILLE — The Bingham miners came to town and you’d have thought they struck the gold miner. Although the lady darts came out and made it a game to begin with, taking a 1st quarter lead 12-9, they w e r e Miners outscored and hustled the 60 rest of the way Darts resulting in a 37 lopsided 60-37 outcome. The Lady Darts, while they did have some great defensive efforts and offensive moments, never found their typical rhythm and struggled all night against bigger players in the post. Allison Blake continued to impress as she led all scorers with 15 points. Teammates Annie Peter-

son and Taylor Ryan chipped in 8 and 7 points respectively. “Bingham is a very disciplined team,” said Davis coach Amy Wright.“They are fun to watch and play against because they are physical, intense, and they have a good understanding of the game. “We came out and looked very sharp in the first quarter, but as they made adjustments, we failed to do so and lost our momentum.” Wright noted her team’s need for more long-term play. “We have to find consistency, both from individuals and as a team,” she said. “Despite the points spread, there is something that we can take away from a game like this and learn from and that is why we have pre-season. “We've gone up against some great opponents and programs and will be better prepared for our region if we can implement what we have learned.” sschulte@davisclipper.co
