New fireworks regulations in Saratoga Springs By Nancy Kramer Staff Writer
Hip hip hurrah for all the summer celebrations and the fireworks that go with them! As many of you know by now, Utah has a new law that allows residents to use legal fireworks starting in June and lasting almost to the end of July. This includes aerial fireworks, which were previously banned from the state. This could be a new source of revenue for our state’s suffering economy, or it could cost more money than it brings in if there are careless adults. Cecil Tully, Saratoga Springs city councilman, states, “Saratoga Springs restricts fireworks that shoot above twenty feet. They need to be 200 feet away from open land, vacant lots, BLM land, basically anything that might catch fire.” He also said that fireworks that shoot less than twenty feet high need to be fifty feet away from land. The following information can be found on the Saratoga website: You may now purchase and use lawful fireworks from June 26-July 26. A new type of aerial firework is now lawful. Aerial devices, also known as “multiple tube,” “repeater,” or “cake” fireworks often look like miniature professional displays and can travel high into the air, as much as 150 feet. Still not allowed: firecrackers, M-80, cherry bombs, bottle rockets, Roman candles, single or reloadable mortars, and ground salutes. You must be at least sixteen years old to handle or light fireworks. Fireworks need space from trees, carports, structures, or other obstacles. Aerial or “cake” fireworks need at least a thirty waving flags and cheering as the soldiers pulled onto their street in the Jacobs Ranch subdivision. The fire department, police officers also came out with lights and sirens blazing to show their support. Twenty-five flags were posted leading up to Chris’ house along with yellow ribbons. A huge aerial firework went off just
foot bubble of clearance around on the ground and above in the air. Some need as much as 150 feet clearance in the air. Should a firework misfire or not light, do not attempt to reignite. Children in Utah are burned each year by sparklers. The tip of a sparkler burns at a temperature of more than 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit, hot enough to cause third-degree burns. Children under the age of twelve should not use sparklers without very close adult supervision. Never hold or light more than one sparkler at a time. Teach children to hold a sparkler at arm’s length from their body and not to wave sparklers or run while holding sparklers. Stand at least six feet from another person while using sparklers. After a firework display children should never pick up fireworks that may be left over, they may still be active. Here are more common sense ideas: Never hold a child in your arms while using sparklers. Sparklers and bare feet can be a painful combination. Always wear closed-toe shoes when using sparklers. Never throw sparklers. Something else you might think about is substituting sparklers for something safer, but still fun. We bought silly string for the Independence Day celebration. The kids (ages two to 11) had an incredible amount of fun chasing each other all over the yard. It was great fun for them, and then they settled down for our big, legal, aerial extravaganza. We are a country that is proud of our freedom, and we love to glorify that freedom, but remember along with freedom comes responsibility. Enjoy and celebrate your freedom, but be safe for the rest of July. as he exited his car. We are all so very proud of these soldiers. We take for granted our freedoms, but we are grateful for all that do to keep us safe and free. Our hearts are full of nothing but honor, support and a lot of gratitude for all that they do everyday even when it means sacrificing their own lives, families and jobs.

SS City Council Notes By Jennifer Klingonsmith Staff Writer
July 5, 2011 The City Council meeting was called to order at 6 p.m. Those present included Bud Poduska, Jim Miller, Cecil Tuley, Brent Call, Mayor Mia Love, and city staff. Michael McOmber was absent. Public comment Harvest Hills resident Shellie Baertsch stated that she was concerned about planned repairs to Harvest Hills Boulevard (the main road into the Harvest Hills subdivision). Seeing many lines drawn on the road, she asked if patching some sections of the road while saving others was really a longterm solution. Another resident from Harvest Hills echoed Baertsch’s concerns. She had talked Jeff Cochran, Planning Commissioner and engineer (with experience in road construction). He also had concerns about how the road was to be repaired, but was unable to attend the City Council meeting. The resident asked if the repair job had been bid out as a complete tear-out, so that price
could be compared to the price of patching. Cochran thought the two bids might be similar (given the number of cuts that would need to be made to have the road patched). And, it was his opinion that the road would hold up much better, the fewer seams it had. City staff responded saying that the areas where the road’s sub-base had been compromised would be replaced and then a 2inch layer of asphalt would be put down over the entire length of the road (or, as far as the budgeted money would allow). Policy items Consent calendar The consent calendar was unanimously approved. Public Hearing: Rezone for the LDS Seminary located at 621 West Marie Way, Joe Christensen, applicant. The rezone was unanimously approved. Ordinance 11-7 (7-5-11): An ordinance of Saratoga Springs, Utah, pursuant to Utah Code Section 10-8-47, prohibiting the discharge of fireworks within specific areas of Saratoga Springs City. Mayor Mia Love stated that she did not want to see fireworks over-regulated. Let people be responsible and let them know
they will be held financially responsible for damages caused by fireworks, she said. Love was comfortable with ordinance language describing prohibited areas as non-irrigated fields, open space, and BLM land. Aerial fireworks (those shooting sparks higher than 20 feet) could not be ignited within 200 feet of such areas. Love then excused herself from the rest of the meeting. Councilman Brent Call reported that the United Fire Authority in Salt Lake County responded to 100 fires over the holiday weekend. He thought Saratoga Springs was lucky to have had rain on the Fourth of July. Councilman Bud Poduska stated that Saratoga Springs is responsible for 60 percent of the costs of wild fires that enter onto BLM land. He thought the fireworks ordinance would protect the citizens from possible fire cessation costs as well as the city. Poduska concluded saying he wanted to balance people being able to enjoy fireworks with controlling the risk of wild fires on open land. He thought making a map available to the public of high-risk areas might help resi-
POLICE BLOTTER Phone home - Saratoga Springs Police Officers were dispatched on a report of a construction trailer that had been broken into during the night. The suspect cut the lock on the trailer and took several rolls of copper wire and sprinkler parts. Officers found shoe prints, and a cell phone by the trailer. A detective was able to track down the owner of the cell phone. The detective met with the phone’s owner and noticed his shoes matched the shoe prints left at the scene. The suspect admitted to breaking into the trailer and stealing the wire. The detective was able to recover all of the stolen property. The suspect was charged with burglary and felony theft. Expired RX drug drop off - The Saratoga Springs Police Department assisted the Utah County Health Department and the Drug Enforcement Administration with an expired prescription drug drop off point for the day. The drop off netted the following expired prescriptions: 2.6 lbs prescription pain killers 29.2 lbs various prescriptions 2.4 lbs various syringes All of the items were turned over to the D.E.A. to be destroyed. Dog bite - Saratoga Springs Animal Control was dispatched to the Lake Mountain Subdivision on a dog bite call. A 36-year-old woman reported she was out walking when she walked by a woman with a small Pekingese dog on a leash. When the woman walked by the dog, it bit her leg. The woman sustained small scratches to her leg. The dog owner said the dog was very protective of her and normally is not aggressive. The dog was placed into ten day quarantine.
You can’t drink here - S.S.P.D. Officers were dispatched to the Summer Village Condos on a report of a fight in progress. Officers found three people on scene with cuts to their heads and faces. One of the victims reported the suspect (a friend of his) came to his house and asked if he could drink there. The victim told the suspect he could not and the suspect left. A few minutes later the suspect knocked on the victim’s door. When the victim answered the door, the suspect struck him in the head with a crow bar. Two other people inside of the residence came to the victim’s aide and were also struck with the crow bar. The suspect fled prior to officers’ arrival. The victims were uncooperative and did not want to pursue charges. The incident is possibly gang related. License plate fraud - An S.S.P.D. officer was randomly checking license plates while stopped at a traffic light. The officer noticed that a vehicle in front of him had different expiration stickers on his license plates, than the computer record showed. The officer stopped the vehicle. The driver admitted to using stickers from license plates he found at the junk yard. The driver also said he did not have insurance. The vehicle was impounded and the driver was charged with no insurance, expired registration and false registration. Teen assault - S.S.P.D. Officers were dispatched to the Talons Cove Golf Course on a report of a fight in progress. Officers found a 17-year-old male had been assaulted by three other teens, which had left the area by the
time the officers arrived. The victim reported he was assaulted because he was a witness against one of the suspects’ father, in a different incident. Officers tracked down the three suspects and interviewed them. Officers received conflicting accounts of what took place and investigators are currently screening charges against the involved parties. Door-to-door scammers - A Harvest Hills resident reported she was approached by a male going door to door asking for money donations to put together care packages for military personnel serving overseas. The woman told the male she was not interested and he became angry with her. The woman felt he was not legitimate and asked him to leave. The woman also reported she was approached a few days earlier by a male seeking donations for LDS missionaries. The man said he was registered with the city and showed the woman an ID card. The city had no record of any individuals allowed to go door to door. The Army and the LDS Church both have said they do not send people door to door seeking donations. Officers checked the area for the solicitors, but they were unable to locate them. Residents are encouraged to avoid giving money to anyone who comes to your door seeking donations. Persons wishing to give donations are best off giving the donation to the charity directly. Residents are encouraged to check out any charity before giving a donation. An online search of the specific organization or charitywatch.org are good resources for researching charities.
dents use discretion. Councilman Jim Miller clarified that if a juvenile was found to be responsible for a wild fire, the parents would be held financially responsible. Assistant City Manager Spencer Kyle asked if a resident would be held liable if, while lighting legal fireworks in a legal area, he started a fire. The city attorney stated that under other laws, that resident would be responsible for any costs incurred or damage done. Miller and Tuley said they were uncomfortable with the fireworks ordinance carrying a Class C Misdemeanor charge. They thought the city should have discretion as to whether to issue an administrative fine or to charge residents with a crime. Tuley also suggested a curfew, saying this would decrease
the likelihood of fires starting late at night and going unnoticed. But others said such a curfew would be hard to enforce. There was some discussion about tabling the ordinance, but City Manager Mark Christensen asked that a decision be made that night so the ordinance could be in place for Pioneer Day. He also mentioned that frequently law enforcement is unable to prove exactly who lit a firework that started a fire. Often you have multiple groups of people within a neighborhood setting off fireworks, he stated. City council members and city staff then worked to clarify language and accurately describe areas in which aerial fireworks would be prohibited. The ordinance was unanimously approved and the meeting entered into closed session.

Fit 2 Fat 2 Fit By Nancy Kramer Staff Writer Who in his right mind would intentionally gain weight with the goal of becoming out of shape and getting fat? Keep in mind that this person had a near perfect physique and is a personal trainer. One knows that a personal trainer understands what types of food to put into his body and how to exercise in order to be in spectacular health. To purposefully let himself become overweight and unhealthy just seems wrong in so many ways. Most of us would kill, figuratively speaking, for a body like he used to have. Drew Manning of Eagle Mountain has taken on the challenge of letting himself become fat and lazy (no exercising) for six months, and then he will try to get his body back into shape by using the same techniques that he uses to help others lose their weight and become healthy. He took on the challenge because he wants to better understand weight loss. It’s difficult for someone to sympathize with a person who has a weight problem when you’ve always been thin or fit. Manning says, “The main reason I’m doing this is to understand what it’s like to be overweight. I’ll have a better appreciation, a greater respect for those who are trying to lose weight. The other reason is to give people hope and inspire them to
Rice King Noodle By Kim Zebley Restaurant Review
“Let’s try Vietnamese.” That’s what I said to my husband the other night when we were discussing where to eat. I’ve recently finished reading a young adult novel called The Wednesday Wars, by Gary D. Schmidt. It takes place during the Vietnam War. In the book there is mention of a Vietnamese dish called thit bo kho, which is a beef stew. My interest was sparked. I’ve never had Vietnamese food before but after reading the book I really wanted to try some. It sounded interesting and not too out of the ordinary. Luckily I found a restaurant in Provo called the Rice King Noodle. I scribbled the words thit bo kho on a scrap of paper and we headed out the door. At first, my husband seemed a little skeptical. I know, we’ve all heard some scary stories about what other countries eat, and I figure they’re probably true, but those kinds of things can’t be served in America, right? In any case, it was time for a new eating adventure. I asked the waitress about thit bo kho and she took my piece of paper back to the cook… who was Vietnamese. Nope, they didn’t have it. So I decided to check out the menu. That’s when I became a little apprehensive. I think my eyes must’ve grown two sizes when I saw the words tendon and tripe on the menu. Really? Is that legal? I’m sure it is, that’s just not exactly what I was expecting. So I avoided anything containing those words and took
what seemed to be a safe route… pho bo vien. This is rice noodle soup with beef meatballs. How scary can that be? The waitress brought out a plate of sprouts, basil and jalapeno slices, and then the soup. The soup looked appetizing, with a golden broth filled with rice noodles. Then I stirred the broth and saw… meatballs? These were not meatballs; at least not what I call meatballs. They looked more like sliced sausage. Then the thought arose in my mind, “It said beef meatballs, but it didn’t say what kind or part of beef they were made from.” Sometimes I think it’s best not to think too much. After all, I dragged us into this adventure so I needed to tough it out. I stopped thinking that way and just gave one a try. The meatball was pretty good with a sort of hot dog consistency and flavor. Yes, it was different, but the waitress confirmed to me that these were indeed Vietnamese meatballs and the cook made them every day. No, I didn’t ask her what part of the cow they were made from. After that hurdle, I mixed in the crunchy sprouts, fresh basil and jalapeno rings, and grabbed my chopsticks. What an interesting experience. The warmth of mild, comforting broth, mixed with crunchy cool sprouts, peppery basil and spicy jalapenos, along with rice noodles and “meatballs” was such a new combination of flavors and tactile sensations. It was intriguing. This was definitely nothing that I was used to. The waitress suggested adding some hoisin sauce for more flavor, as it was fairly mild,
Page 5
and she also suggested adding just a little hot sauce. Did she say just a little? Oops. I only added one squirt around the bowl but it was a bit too much. The burn was numbing. Strangely, even though the pho was filling, I left feeling hungry. Maybe I didn’t eat enough of those mysterious beef meatballs. My husband really liked his meal, which was called com thit bi cha. It was sliced bbq pork, shredded pork, and Vietnamese meatloaf on steamed rice, served with a sunny side up egg. The bbq pork looked and tasted like what I expected but everything else was different. The shredded pork looked dry and the meatloaf was made with ground pork and had a thin layer of something orange on top. I’m not sure I even want to know. Besides the bbq pork, everything tasted unlike its American counterpart. It was all interestingly unique. Trying something new was fun. Vietnamese is definitely not my newfound favorite, but I loved having this food adventure… that wasn’t too extreme. The only real complaint I had occurred when I got up to leave; I suddenly felt an intense headache coming on. Just like that. After looking on the internet, I found I had a fairly common reaction to msg, which is a flavor enhancer used in many Asian restaurants. So if you’re concerned about msg, just ask them to leave it out. Located at 225 W. Center St., in Provo. Prices starting at $3.15 for appetizers, $5.95-$8.95 for soups, and $7.25-$8.95 for meals, I think the prices are fair and portions, generous.
make healthier life style choices. I want to give people the same knowledge I have as a personal trainer. I want to create awareness of how the typical American diet is processed carbohydrates.” His quest to become overweight or even obese is an amazing journey. You can follow his progress on his website www.Fit2Fat2Fit.com. It’s an entertaining read as Manning tells about his various challenges, setbacks and gains. He has a great sense of humor and seems to be enjoying (most of the time) his quest to become fat. Right now Manning is on Week 10 in his pursuit to become the man he never thought he’d let himself become. Week 9 was the week he took on the Fuddrucker Challenge. This challenge involved the following overthe–top menu items: 1 lb. bacon cheddar burger 1 large plate of bacon cheese fries 1stupid brownie sundae (Manning’s adjective) 1 large Coke Who out there thinks that our valiant hero was victorious and consumed the entire Fuddrucker Challenge? If you guessed that Manning was triumphant, you’re wrong. In his own words, “The most horrifying piece of the whole challenge was the fact that with just two bites remaining, I disgraced myself and threw in the towel. Maybe it was the brownie. Maybe it was the burger an hour before…In the end, I failed my first ‘real’ challenge. After I threw in the towel, I threw up my food.” Because Manning is lactose intolerant, ice cream probably wasn’t a great choice. (He did take pills to combat the problem right before digging into the ice cream.) The Fuddrucker Challenge is not the type of food he eats during the week. Monday through Friday he eats pasta, white bread, sugary cereals, soda, chips and granola bars. Dare I say that this might be the typical American diet? He told me, “I know it’s going to get harder, but I’m committed. My energy’s way down. I’ve become
Before
Week 9 lazier since I’m not working out.” One just has to admire someone who is that dedicated to understanding the challenges that the overweight and the obese encounter. I applaud his tenacity to comprehend what most of the people in the U.S. are up against. When he reaches his overweight goal at six months, then he will give everyone access to his meal plans and work out plans. Manning said, “It’s hard when you create habits your whole life…It’s hard to change what you’ve known since you were a kid. It’s a lifestyle change. It’s not just a quick diet to lose ten pounds.” Then he quipped, “Don’t do as I do; do as I don’t.” What Manning hopes the outcome of this experiment produces is that no matter how much you weigh or how much you have become a coach potato, there is still hope, and with commitment, anyone can become fit. Follow Drew on his website. You will be inspired.
