Tooele City has lost another attempt to stop a $20 million jury verdict from becoming final.

The Utah Supreme Court

announced last Tuesday that it will not review an August ruling by the state Court of Appeals that reinstated a 2009 jury verdict against Tooele City. The verdict, rendered after a trial in 3rd District Court, awarded Overlake developer Tooele Associates

$20.7 million in damages.“We are not surprised,” said Drew

Hall, managing partner of Tooele Associates. “The appellate court deci-sion was well-crafted and supported in detail the jury verdict.”

The Supreme Court’s decision marks another milestone in a legal battle that began in 2002.

The Dust Bowl that devastat-ed the Midwest is well-known among even casual historians. But it was that disaster’s lesser-known — and local — cousin that piqued Rob Sibley’s inter-est.

The BYU Broadcasting pro-ducer, editor, director and writ-er wanted to make a documen-tary on the Great Depression aimed at junior high and high school students in the state when he discovering that

Grantsville had suffered a dust bowl of its own.

“We wanted to do some-thing kind of parallel with what was going on nationwide, and I came across the Grantsville dust bowl, which was some-thing that I had never heard of before, and not many other people have,” he said.

The Grantsville dust bowl is one of seven topics touched upon in Sibley’s new docu-mentary, “Utah’s Perfect Storm: Drought, Debt and The Great Depression.” The 30-minute

Self-reporting of violations is not enough when it comes to regulating low-level radioactive waste brought to Tooele County’s west desert, according to some state legislators.

“The Division of Radiation Control has not been as aggressive as the Legislature wanted them to be,” said Sen. Gene Davis, D-Salt Lake City. “Self-reporting is not a good answer to regulation. We should be more on top of it than that.”

The topic of state oversight of

EnergySolutions was taken up by legisla-tors last week following a performance audit of the Division of Radiation Control released in September by the Office of the Legislative Auditor General. The audit concluded that the DRC needs to provide greater independent verification of radio-active waste coming to Utah, according to Kade Minchey, audit supervisor with the Office of the Legislative Auditor General.

“Current controls are not sufficient,” Minchey told legislators gathered last week for interim committee meetings.

On Thursday, Nov. 8, Tooele County Commissioners sent an email to coun-ty employees warning them of a third round of layoffs due to the county’s continuing budget crisis. The follow-ing week, several commissioners and elected officials headed to St. George to attend the Utah Association of Counties

annual convention.While the county doesn’t yet have a

definitive count of how many people it sent to the conference, the decision to attend at all so soon after 22 people were laid off appears to have raised some eyebrows within the Tooele County Building.

Tooele resident Rebecca Adams can’t remember a time when she didn’t have to test her blood sugar or take insulin shots daily.

Adams was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at just 2 years of age and has lived with and man-aged the disease for 56 years. Last Thursday she was honored for that achievement by the Tooele County Diabetes Coalition, a diabetes education and support organization formed by the coun-ty health department.

Nineteen other people in Tooele County were honored along with Adams for properly managing their diabetes for at least 25 years.

The awards were given through the Lilly Diabetes Journey Awards program, which is a program founded by Eli Lilly and Company, the pharmaceutical giant based in Indianapolis, Ind., that manufac-tures several medications, includ-ing insulin. This was the first year they were given in Tooele County.

The awards recognize diabetes patients who have successfully managed their disease with the help of insulin for 25, 50 or 75 years or more. Managing diabetes successfully means learning how to administer daily insulin doses, eating healthy foods, checking blood sugar levels and exercising regularly. All recipients besides Adams received a bronze 25-year medal. Adams was the only recipi-ent who has had diabetes for more than 50 years, so she received a silver 50-year medal.

The other 19 recipients include Jeffery Wyatt, Leslie Chadwick, Rick Lewis, Marlee Dalton, Shane Bergen, Bernice Hiatt, Jeff Coombs, Bryan Ditty, Linda Broadbent, Jeff Morgan, Kathleen Burt, Jason Robert Downard, Heather Stapley, Lorri Trujillo, Dan Kaul, Mary Steadman, Shirley Peck, John Lee and Eileen Deleeuw.

Many of these people regularly attend the Tooele County Diabetes Coalition’s monthly support group meetings. In addition, the health department advertised through social media and the Transcript-Bulletin asking for those who have had diabetes for 25 years or longer to contact the health department so they could receive recognition.

DeLeeuw, Tooele County Diabetes Coalition coordinator, has had diabetes for 48 years her-self. She said it wasn’t surprising to see so many people honored with an award because diabe-tes is being diagnosed more and more. In Tooele County, 9 percent of adults have diabetes, accord-ing to the Tooele County Health Department.

“What’s really surprising for many is that people in rural areas are taking care of their diabetes too,” she said. “Some are going into Salt Lake for treatment and some are getting treated locally, but they are taking care of it.”

Peck, a Tooele resident, has had type 2 diabetes for 43 years. She said it was an honor to receive the award, because the last 43 years haven’t always been easy. She credits her family, friends and good doctors for supporting her throughout her life.

“I was scared when I was first diagnosed,” she said. “I had heard a lot of bad things about diabetes. The knowledge they have now is great and you know you’re not alone.”

Steadman, a Tooele resident, was diagnosed with type 1 diabe-tes 42 years ago. She wasn’t sur-prised when she learned she had the disease — her brother along with many other family mem-bers also suffered from diabetes. Receiving the award was excit-ing for her because it’s something she’s had to manage for more than four decades.

“Diabetes is all about how you take care of yourself,” she said.

“Diabetes is a thing you can con-trol. It’s better than cancer and a lot of other worse things. I know people who suffer and die from it don’t feel that way, but I’m one of the lucky ones.”

Adams said over the last 56 years, she’s also remained very healthy. She has only experienced two diabetic comas due to high blood sugar. Over her lifetime of dealing with diabetes, she’s noticed a big change in the treat-ment of the disease and because

of that, managing it has continu-ously gotten easier.

“Before, we had glass syringes that had to be boiled every day and stainless steel needles that had to be boiled,” she said. “They got dull fast.”

Adams also remembers her first blood sugar testing machine, which was the size of a six-cup muffin tin and cost her parents $900.

“That wasn’t easy to carry around,” she said. “Now the blood

sugar testing machine fits in your pocket.”

Receiving an award for living with diabetes for so many years is a big deal to DeLeeuw because when she was first diagnosed, her parents were told she’d die due to complications.

“Some of us who have had it the longest didn’t expect to be alive at this point and the rest of us expected to fight more complica-tions,” she said. “Some people are fighting complications, but the

majority of us are living healthy, successful lives. Today, that’s what people expect, but the perspec-tive 25 to 50 years ago was a lot different.”

DeLeeuw said if anyone in the county who has had diabetes for 25 years or longer was overlooked, she would like them to contact her so they can be recognized in the future. She can be reached by calling the health department at [email protected]

A Tooele man was killed after rolling his pickup truck on I-80 Friday morning.

Adrien Marquez, 19, was driv-ing eastbound on the interstate at about 7:10 a.m. just east of Saltair. His 2008 Dodge 1500 rear-ended another pickup, a 1998 Chevrolet, which caused Marquez to lose control of his truck, according to the Utah Highway Patrol, and he rolled off the road to the right several times.

Marquez, who was not wear-ing a seat belt, was ejected from the vehicle and pronounced dead at the scene. No injuries were reported on the other driver. I-80 eastbound was closed while emergency crews responded to the crash, with

traffic diverted onto SR-201. It was reopened at about 11:30 a.m.

UHP Cpl. Todd Johnson said the highway was closed for so long because the responding troopers had to make a thorough diagram of the crash scene.

“They’ve got to do what we call a total station, where they make a diagram of every lane. The crash scene was quite long, too, so it was easier to divert the traffic,” he said.

Early investigation suggest Marquez was driving at exces-sive speeds, Johnson said. [email protected]

Two Salt Lake City-area men died after their boat capsized in the Great Salt Lake on Saturday.

Chad Tohinaka and Logan Hardman, both 25, and a 24-year-old friend, went out onto the lake to go duck hunting at about 1

p.m., and began to go back to shore at about 4 p.m., just as the weather turned bad, according Lt. Justin Hoyal, public informa-tion officer for the Unified Police Department.

“The storm blew in, the weath-er got really ugly and the waves kicked up, causing the boat to take on water,” Hoyal said. “The boat ultimately capsized, put-ting the three individuals in the water.”

After staying by the capsized boat for about 45 minutes, the 24-year-old man started to swim approximately a half mile to shore, Hoyal said, while Tohinaka and Hardman stayed with the boat. The water temperature was

47 degrees Fahrenheit.The Great Salt Lake Marina

harbor master located the 24-year-old man near the marina at about 5:50 p.m., and with the information given by the rescued swimmer, immediately called for a search for the remaining two men, Hoyal said.

A massive search ensued using manpower and equipment from several organizations, including the Unified Police Department, Salt Lake City Police Department, Salt Lake City Fire Department, Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Office and Davis County Search and Rescue, with a bird’s eye view provided by helicopters from the Utah Department of Public

Safety and Lifeflight.At about 9 p.m., the boat was

located by air, but the two men were not with it, Hoyal said. About two hours later, a heli-copter located one of the men, and the other was located soon after, he said. Tohinaka, of Salt Lake City, and Hardman, of West Jordan, were both dead when rescuers reached them.

Tohinaka and Hardman’s bod-ies were taken back to shore and turned over to medical examin-ers to do an autopsy to deter-mine cause of death.

“It’s a sad deal. Very unfortu-nate. A lot of people put a lot of effort into finding these guys,” Hoyal said. “It’s a very unfortu-nate situation.”[email protected]

A total of $1.4 million dollars was given to Tooele County and Grantsville City through a federal grant that will provide upgraded park-and-ride lots in Stansbury Park and Grantsville for residents who commute to Salt Lake for work.

The county got $1.2 million and Grantsville got $220,000 through the federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program.

“When the county was put into the PM 2.5 non-attainment area with Salt Lake, it made the coun-ty eligible for CMAQ funds of its own, which are federal dollars,” said Kerry Beutler, Tooele County planner. “So we were able to get some of that money to complete the park-and-ride projects.”

PM 2.5 — fine-particulate pol-lution made up of dust and soot — is approximately 1/30th the size of an average human hair. It comes from power plants, vehicle emissions, wood-burning stoves, industrial processes and diesel-powered vehicles. It’s considered dangerous because it can cause severe respiratory problems.

CMAQ funding is provided to areas across the nation that face the challenge of attaining or main-taining air quality standards set by the Environmental Protection Agency. Each year’s CMAQ fund-ing is distributed to the states via a statutory formula based on popu-lation and air quality classifica-tion as designated by the EPA.

“These funds have to be used for a type of project that will reduce congestion and improve air quali-ty,” said Joel Kertamus, Grantsville City public works director. “You

can’t use them for building roads, but you can use them to modify intersections to make them more efficient so that cars aren’t idling as long or for park-and-ride lots so that less people are commut-ing.”

Beutler said the Utah Transit Authority is the entity that sub-mitted for the grants. The funding is channeled through the Utah Department of Transportation to areas around the state that can use the money for projects that will help to reduce PM 2.5 emis-sions.

“UTA is the one who submitted for the grants, and then because the funding comes through UDOT we have to go through their sys-tem for the bidding of the project,” Beutler said. “The project gets managed through UDOT because they determine the actual distri-bution of the funds.”

The park-and-ride facility in Stansbury Park will be located across the street from Benson Grist Mill on SR-138. Beutler said the new parking lot is in a good location because many people who live in the area will be able to walk there and ride to work.

“The county acquired that property a while ago and hoped to use it for a parking lot for Benson Grist Mill programs, but we didn’t have funding to do that,” Beutler said. “This was a great partnership because we’ll be able to use the parking lot in the off hours when it’s not being used as a park-and-ride facility.”

The new parking lot will have just over 200 parking stalls. Beutler said this is a huge increase from the 80 parking stalls that park-and-ride users have been using through an agreement with the LDS church in Stansbury Park.

“We don’t anticipate all 200 spots will be completely filled, but we anticipate at least over 100,” he said. “Initially there will be over 100 full, and it’ll probably just go up from there.”

Beutler said about 30 percent of the design work on the lot has been completed.

“We hope to be through that design process by the first of the year, and then hopefully go out to bid in February and actually start construction as soon as we’re able to in the spring,” he said.

Beutler hopes the project will be completed by early next sum-mer.

Kertamus said because Grantsville already has a gravel park-and-ride lot next to the cem-etery on Main Street, the city plans to use the grant money to make serious improvements to the lot. Right now, because there is no structure to the lot, no more than

80 cars can be parked there. When the lot is paved, he said, there will be 110 stalls.

“We’re going to pave it and make

it something respectable,” he said. “And we’re going to put in some islands to delineate traffic flow. We’ll mark out where stalls are

and then we’ll put in some curb-ing to define the access points.”[email protected]

A Nevada resident was killed in an ATV crash in West Wendover Thursday afternoon.

Officers from the West Wendover Police Department responded to a call about an ATV crash on a dirt trail along Florence Way, a street between residential and rural areas on the south end of town. The officers found the ATV on its side on top of a deep ravine.

The vehicle’s operator, identi-fied as 31-year-old Cory McKnight of Fallon, Nev., was found at the

bottom of the ravine. Early inves-tigation into the crash suggests McKnight may have lost control of the ATV as it left the trail in an airborne manner. The ATV struck the opposite side of the ravine, likely ejecting McKnight, and then continuing along the ravine until it finally came to rest on its side.

McKnight was wearing a hel-met. Police have not yet deter-mined if alcohol or drugs were a factor in the incident, but speed does appear to have played a role, according to a press release from the police department. The inves-tigation is [email protected]

A Tooele man and an Erda man were arrested Wednesday for allegedly threatening a man who owed one of them $20 with a sawed-off shotgun.

According to a probable cause statement, 21-year-old Christopher Ono, of Tooele, saw an acquaintance whom he believed owed him money in a store on the north end of Tooele. Ono got Robert Gilley, a 22-year-old Erda man, to follow the acquaintance in his car. The acquaintance, noticing he was being followed, pulled into the parking lot of the LDS church behind Macey’s.

The victim told police Ono and Gilley both approached him while he was in his vehicle and start-ed yelling at him. Ono pointed a sawed-off shotgun at the victim while demanding the return of the money, which he had lent the man, then smashed in the back driver-side window and hit the victim in the arm with the butt of the gun, according to the state-ment. The victim then drove off.

When police interviewed Gilley, he said he had watched Ono’s con-frontation from the car, according to the statement. Investigators later found two sawed-off shot-guns in Gilley’s possession that were possibly stolen, according to the statement.

According to court records, Gilley was convicted of a felony in 2010 for drug-related charges, and is not legally allowed to pos-sess firearms. Court records also show a case filed against Gilley in July with six counts of theft, one count of theft by deception, one

count of burglary of a vehicle and one count of burglary, all third-degree felonies. That case is still pending.

Federal law prohibits the pos-session or manufacture of a sawed-off shotgun with a bar-rel length of less than 18 inches or overall length of 26 inches. According to police, the shotgun used in the incident was illegal by those standards.

When questioned, Ono said that he had did have a confronta-tion with the victim, but was using a fake gun, not a real gun, and that he punched the victim and broke out the window because he was mad at the victim for saying mean things about someone, according to the statement.

According to court records, Ono was also convicted of a felony in 2011 for drug-related charges.

Gilley was booked into the Tooele County Detention Center on charges of robbery and posses-sion of a weapon by a restricted person, and on charges of pos-session of a controlled substance and possession of drug parapher-nalia because of a drug pipe and a small amount of marijuana that was allegedly found on Gilley at the time of the arrest.

Ono, who had an active warrant for his arrest at the time police questioned him for the incident, was booked on charges of rob-bery, aggravated assault, posses-sion of a weapon by a restricted person, two counts of vandalism and four counts of possession of a controlled substance, as police allegedly found an unspecified controlled substance on his per-son at the time of his [email protected]

Now it can be told: United States government auditors are finally acknowledging that Afghan

security forces will be incapable of defending the nation from the Taliban after Western forces withdraw in 2014.

What does this mean? The Taliban, obviously determined to return to power, will most certainly retake most of the nation. The hapless Afghan army will probably just run away. That’s what it did almost as soon as the Soviet Union, the last foreign occupier, pulled out.

Does that mean the U.S. has simply wasted hundreds of billions of dollars and 2,000 American lives? Not entirely. The war’s original purpose was to wreak revenge on al-Qaeda for the 9/11 attacks, to capture or kill its leadership and destroy its training camps.

That was accomplished. But in short order, al-Qaeda simply moved to other unstable states — Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen, Algeria. The Obama adminis-tration’s long-stated fear is that when Western forces leave Afghanistan, al-Qaeda might return. The Taliban would certainly welcome them back.

My view: Be our guests. It would be far easier to attack them in Afghanistan than in some of their other present locations — particularly Pakistan. Now that al-Qaeda has bases all over the world, why is holding onto Afghanistan so important anyway?

In its new quarterly report, the Special Inspector General for Afghan Reconstruction, a federal agency Congress established in 2008, said its audits found that the Afghan army “will likely be incapable of fully sustaining Afghan National Security Forces facili-ties after the transition in 2014.” The army’s record at this is disheartening.

In February, American soldiers turned over a forward operating base west of Kabul to their Afghan counterparts. When they returned in August, the Americans found what they described as a “dismal scene.” The Afghan soldiers hadn’t kept up the gen-erator and were down to three hours of electricity a day. Nearly all of their

vehicles had broken down. They had no working night-vision goggles, so they were largely defenseless after dark.

Stories like that are rife. In one eastern base near the Pakistan border turned over to the Afghans this year, the new tenants allowed the place to run down so severely that they finally aban-doned it and deserted. But they left behind their chickens; they had turned the water-well building into a chicken coop.

If Afghan security forces cannot maintain forward operating bases, they won’t be able to defend most of the country. It’s just that simple.

Not surprisingly, the Pentagon offered only qualified endorsement of the inspector general’s report. “There are problems that do come up, and obstacles,” Pentagon Press Secretary George Little said last Thursday. “But our commitment to the strategy remains sound,” adding that “overall, we think the process is going well.”

That’s a typically over-optimistic military statement. Can you imagine any Pentagon officer ever saying: “This is hopeless. We can’t win.”

Well, Congress doesn’t buy it.“America’s can-do response to the

challenge [in Afghanistan] is admi-rable,” the Congressional Commission on Wartime Contracting in Iraq and Afghanistan reported. “But human and financial resources have limits, and long-term costs are seldom consid-ered when short-term plans are being framed.”

By that, the commissioners were say-ing, U.S. military and civilian agencies almost never take into account whether the host country has the skills and financial resources to maintain a big, expensive project after the U.S. leaves, leading to “vast amounts of spending

with little or no benefit.”Even with the discouraging experi-

ences over the last decade, Congress is continuing to appropriate billions for army “sustainment” — buildings and equipment for Afghan soldiers who are incapable of maintaining them. The total appropriated so far is $9 billion.

In fact, the special inspector general noted, “the U.S. has surpassed its goals in procuring equipment” for the Afghan army, even though the Afghan army and police “do not have the capability to operate and maintain garrisons and training centers built for them.”

The inspector general made the same point that the Congressional com-mission stressed: “Billions of dollars of U.S. taxpayer funds will be at risk of going to waste.”

What’s so perplexing is that Congress chartered both the special inspector general’s office and the Congressional commission, whose staff spent three years studying the problem.

Still, Congress is blithely ignoring their conclusions — including this one from its own commissioners: Spending money on a project “is wasteful if it does not fit the cultural, political and economic norms of the society it is meant to serve, or if it cannot be main-tained.”

Joel Brinkley, a professor of journalism at Stanford University, is a Pulitzer Prize-winning former foreign correspondent for the New York Times.

Afghanistan project is tale of money being ill-spent

Commissioners must goOur commissioners have done it

again. They destroyed the hopes and dreams of 22 families (“Reduction in revenue leads to third round of layoffs,” Nov. 13). Great timing too, just before the holidays. I don’t fault them for making necessary decisions to balance the budget, but I do blame them for making bonehead decisions on how to spend taxpayer dollars in the first place. How could they build multi-million dollar facilities, namely the jail, without having solid contracts to ensure the revenue stream was in place to repay the investment? It boggles my mind to understand how this could happen. Furthermore, how can you continue to support the Deseret Peak

Complex when it continually oper-ates in the red? These types of ill-fated decisions would not go unpunished in my business. We need to impeach the entire county commission and start over. You folks are fiscally irresponsible and an embarrassment to the entire county. You have decimated county services and people’s lives. Morale at the county building is at an all-time low. You cannot keep jerking people around, making threats and spur-of-the-moment decisions. In closing, how much did you spend last week for your training trip to St. George? Hope you enjoyed the golfing.Tim Hill Tooele

LETTERS POLICY

When it comes to local government, it apparently takes a lot to make Tooele County resi-dents really mad.

What else could explain the lack of outrage at the way commissioners have managed the county’s budget crisis? Last week, as the nation fretted about approaching the “fiscal cliff,” Tooele County had already crashed through all the caution signs and was sailing off the edge, pumping the brakes frantically in an effort to stop the momentum of years of reckless financial policies.

A third round of layoffs at the county brings the total number of positions cut over the past four months to around 60. (Hopefully someone at the county is keeping an exact count.) One of the most devastating aspects of the layoffs, particularly from a employee morale perspective, has been how they have been staggered, with the most recent coming a week before Thanksgiving. And outgoing Commissioner Colleen Johnson didn’t give those county employees still standing much cause for relief when she recently said she hoped more staff cuts wouldn’t be needed — this year.

Right now, it’s all up in the air at Tooele County. Budgeting is a month-to-month process. If more radioactive waste gets sent to Clive or a few more federal prisoners turn up at the new jail next month, happy days will be here again. Heck, we might even be able to build that shoot-ing range, fancy-up the convention center or put in those showers for the homeless on Main Street. If not, we’ll lay off a few more folks and hope we can hire them back next month.

Worse still, numbers aren’t entirely guiding these decisions — when asked, Johnson could not say how much the latest round of layoffs would save the county — and neither is the public, which hasn’t heard any open discussion on the budget crisis in commission meetings. It’s not even clear how much commissioners are managing the situation, since the last round of layoffs was executed by department heads who were ordered to cut in a way that would be “fair” to all.

The county commission’s leadership style was summed up by Commissioner Bruce Clegg in August, when he said, “We’ve known for some time that the revenue wasn’t coming in like we had thought it would. We did what we could, like our hiring freeze, and were hoping that something might happen and things would pick up, but it didn’t happen.”

Leadership is not “hoping that something might happen.”The commissioners want you to believe they’re victims. But if the economy is to blame, why

haven’t you read about widespread layoffs at Tooele City or within state government? They want to claim Sheriff Frank Park gave them bad advice regarding the new $25 million jail, but since when does the buck stop with a department head on building or financing the largest capital project in county history?

Truth is, the current commissioners have hired and built with reckless abandon over the past six years. They began to live off of mitigation fees, and still drained the county’s fund bal-ance down. Then, when the budget crunch approached, they sat and waited. When it got bad enough, they made drastic cuts. When it got worse, they cut again. And again.

The commissioners have gotten away with this bungling partly because they’re well-inten-tioned, likable people. That won’t be enough now.

It might take a lot to make county residents outraged, but if this doesn’t do it, nothing will.

Commissioners fiddled while county budget burned

Joel BrinkleyGUEST COLUMNIST

It is common to use test scores that only measure minimum compre-hension levels, like Utah’s Criterion

Referenced Tests (CRT), to measure the performance of schools. However, most parents want to see measures of excel-lence at a school, not just a measure of how well that school barely succeeded. That is why it was refreshing to see the front-page article in the Tooele Transcript-Bulletin describing how more Tooele Valley students are taking the College Board Advanced Placement tests (“More students take advanced placement class-es, pass rate lags behind,” Nov. 8).

In June, the Deseret News published a list titled “50 Worst-Scoring High Schools in Utah,” and all three of the Tooele Valley high schools were on it. At No. 15, Tooele High School was the lowest, No. 31 Stansbury was in the better half of the worst, and Grantsville came in at No. 28.

The Deseret News used CRT scores so the ranking is by relative levels of medioc-rity. I’m sure there are people who argue that their school’s mediocrity is better than someone else’s, but many parents would rather know about excellence.

In the Nov. 8 article, the Transcriptonly reported pass/fail rates for the AP test scores. This was probably done in the interest of decreasing word count, but it left important aspects of the Tooele students’ excellence in the editor’s circu-lar file. A value of 3 is passing, but some students earn scores as high as 5’s on their tests. Some students also score highly enough on multiple tests to earn an “AP Scholar” designation.

The designation “AP Scholar with Honor” is granted to students who receive an average score of at least 3.25 on all AP exams taken and scores of 3 or higher on four or more of these exams. In Utah, 861 students were awarded “AP Scholar with Honor.” One of these was my daughter, Mirae, who earned the award by achieving 5’s on all four of the AP tests she took last year.

In order to earn this award as a 10th grader, Mirae had to leave the Tooele County School District and begin riding the UTA bus into West High School every

day. This is because while THS has 12 AP courses listed in its catalog, it does not reliably offer them all.

West scored only slightly better than THS on the Deseret News list, coming in at No. 17. So there is little difference between the mediocrity of THS and West. However, on U.S. News & World Report’s ranking of the college readiness of students at high schools nationwide, West earned a 34.6 while THS was given an 8. While only about half of the AP tests taken by THS students were passed, the West pass rate was almost 80 percent. West also has more merit scholars, and higher SAT scores.

In fact, take any measure of excellence — as opposed to mediocrity — and West does much better than the entire Tooele County School District combined.

This year there are several more stu-dents that go into West from the Tooele Valley. West is only open to out-of-district students who can display the aptitude to excel. The school has a program called ELP (early learning program) that is a junior high program of excellence, and the last opportunity to prove aptitude for entrance into the 2014 ELP is coming up soon. There is one test on Nov. 30, and the last one is on Dec. 7.

There are many Tooele Valley students who can excel if given the chance, but they may have to look beyond the Tooele County School District to get the opportu-nity to prove it. Larger numbers of Tooele Valley parents are looking for excellence in educational opportunities for their chil-dren, and increasing numbers are finding it. You can too.

argued in the 2009 trial that Tooele City breached the devel-opment agreement for the 3,000-acre Overlake subdivi-sion on the northwest edge of Tooele. The jury awarded a net judgment of $20.7 million in damages to Tooele Associates. However, 3rd District Court Judge Randall Skanchy, who presided over the trial, issued a mistrial ruling in 2010, citing irreconcilable conflicts in the jury’s verdict.

Hall appealed the mistrial ruling, which led to the Court of Appeals decision in August to reinstate the jury’s verdict.

Tooele City filed a petition with the Utah Supreme Court in September asking justices to review the Court of Appeals decision. The city claimed that the Court of Appeals Decision raised important questions of law affecting other Utah munic-ipalities.

The Supreme Court’s deci-

sion is a not a meaningful set-back to the city, and the city has not exhausted all legal avenues to overturn or reduce the judg-ment, according to Roger Baker, Tooele City attorney.

“The city believed that it was prudent to pursue an appeal to the Supreme Court. Because that appeal is no longer an option, the city will pursue its various options in the district court,” said Baker.

While the jury returned a ver-dict, that verdict is not binding until the judge that presided at the trial weighs in and enters a final judgment. The case will now go back to 3rd District Court where Judge Skanchy will enter a final judgment.

Final judgment will likely involve the judge calling in both parties to discuss the final rul-ing on the case and assigning one of the parties to write the ruling, according to Baker.

No timetable has been set for this process.

The city may still appeal the final judgment, Baker said.

A STUDENT’S VIEW

Since he announced his plan to run for president, debate and conflict seemed

to centralize around the religion of Republican candidate and almost-president Mitt Romney. It is not a little-known fact that Romney is a Mormon. However, I don’t agree that Romney’s reli-gion is as big of a deal as some would have us believe. As a Utah resident and a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I think much differ-ently than most.

More than 40 presidents have served in the White House since the founding of our nation, and all of them have had varying reli-gious views. I would be surprised to know of anyone who knows even a majority of their religions.

That is not to say that there haven’t been a few exceptions. Many will remember hearing about the Catholic controversy during John F. Kennedy’s time as president. However, even that drama was passed by quickly. In general, the religions of the presi-dential candidates are second-

ary to the bigger issues of their political platforms and agendas. The same should have held true for Romney.

Of course, I’m not saying that religion doesn’t play a big role in a presidential election or term. Ideals that often stem from religious views, whether we like it or not, play a crucial role in the actions of all politi-cians. However, there seems to be a strange idea among many Mormons — especially those in Utah — that Romney’s campaign created a giant magnifying glass that hovered over the most intri-cate details of our religion.

Ironically, the majority of the attention I saw given to Mormons because of Romney’s campaign were from Mormons themselves. There are plenty of

people who obviously do not fit into this category, but I have heard several people say some-thing to the effect of, “I don’t want Romney to be president because it might bring negative attention to the church.”

It is no secret that the LDS church has never been one to shirk attention. On the contrary, we send out teenagers in droves to spread our message. We invite all to learn about the church and its teachings. It is an important part of religion and politics to be open. Shunning attention implies that there is something to hide. I firmly believe that the LDS church does not have any-thing to hide.

On the other hand, I don’t think that the wide stream of attention the LDS church received is what some have made it out to be. Though there has been an increased curios-ity nationwide about the LDS church, there are many factors that are playing into the increas-ing popularity of the church, including, but not limited to,

the rapidly growing baptism rates, the economic power of the church, the newest announce-ment about the change in mis-sionary age and the continued humanitarian efforts of organiza-tions within the church.

All of these things and Romney’s campaign combined still do not measure up to the attention that people think the LDS church is receiving. Sure, I recognize the significance in Romney almost becoming the first Mormon president. But he was certainly not the first Mormon in the spotlight and would not have been the first president to come from a lesser-known religion.

If attention is directed at the Mormon church, then great. We have never shied away from it in the past and I do not see how it would be productive to do so now. However, it is important to realize that many times the attention and attacks on the LDS church might very well stem in part from Mormons’ own imagi-nations.

Mormons paid much more interest to Romney’s faith than non-Mormons did

woman Colleen Johnson, whose term of office expires at the end of the year, did not attend the St. George convention but defends her fellow commissioners and other elected officials that did go.

“I chose not attend. I didn’t think it would be right because my time on the commission is coming to an end,” said Johnson. “I do know that the training and information that commissioners and department heads receive at the convention is very important and valuable.”

Johnson said each department head was free to decide if they would attend the UAC conven-tion given the recent cutbacks to department budgets, including travel expenses.

Commissioners Jerry Hurst and Bruce Clegg attended, along with County Clerk Marilyn Gillette, County Assessor Wendy Shubert, County Auditor Mike Jensen and County Surveyor Doug Kinsman.

The county paid for Gillette’s $300 convention fee and $284 for three nights in a hotel room while she covered the cost of gas for the trip out of her own pocket, she said.

“The convention is one of the

few times the county clerks have to sit down and meet with the Lt. Governor and the state elections office and receive training and discuss recent election proce-dures,” said Gillette. “The infor-mation at the meeting, espe-cially the changes to the state’s computerized election system, is essential to our job in the clerk’s office.”

Gillette also pointed out that it is at the convention that county clerks agree on their legislative agenda for the upcoming legisla-tive session.

Kinsman, who served as the head of the Utah State County Surveyors Association for 2012, felt is was important for him to attend the convention because he was running the show for sur-veyors. County funds paid for his $300 convention fee, a $270 for mileage reimbursement for the 570-mile round trip, and $55 a night for three nights in a condo that Kinsman has an interest in — a total of $735.

“The training and the oppor-tunity to meet with other county surveyors and share problems and solutions help a great deal with my duties as the county surveyor,” said Kinsman.

The county paid $897 each for Shubert and her appraisal super-visor to attend the convention.

“Appraisal laws and state com-mission procedures are always

changing and we have to stay on top of those changes,” said Shubert. “I though about not going because of the layoffs, but the training and information is very important.”

County recorder Jerry Houghton decided not to attend the convention this year. He said although the information and training at the convention is helpful, he did not believe it was good timing to announce a reduction in force of county employees and then leave town for a convention.

County attorney Doug Hogan and treasurer Jeremy Walker also did not attend the convention.

County commissioner-elect Shawn Milne said he was not invited and did not attend the convention.

“Having never attended, I can’t attest to the value of the agenda at the convention,” said Milne. “I hope the commissioners and department heads weighed very heavily the value of the infor-mation and decided who really needed to attend the conven-tion. It may have been impor-tant for some officials and less important for others.”

Neither Hurst nor Clegg could be reached for comment on this [email protected]

“Prohibited waste has come to Utah.”

The DRC relies on a regulatory model that is generally accepted in South Carolina, Washington, and Texas, the only others states with active commercial low-level radioactive waste disposal facili-ties, that relies on self-report-ing of violations, according to Minchey. The model works well in these states but Utah is unique.

Utah’s sole radioactive dispos-al facility is owned and operated by a private business. In other states, the state retains owner-ship of the facility, which is oper-ated by a private contractor. Utah also has a ban on Class B and C waste while other states accept this hotter waste, according to Minchey.

These differences warrant a special regulatory framework to make sure waste banned by state law does not find its way into the state, Minchey said.

Over a 10-year period from 2001 to 2011, the legislative audi-tors noted that 37 containers of waste shipped to Clive were identified by EnergySolutions as exceeding the requirements for Class A waste.

The DRC allowed 23 of the containers, which had already been buried in embankments at Clive, to stay put while the remaining 14 containers, which

were discovered by physical sam-pling by EnergySolutions before they were buried, were returned to their originator.

While the 37 containers only represent 0.0096 percent of the total number of containers received at Clive during the 10-year period, auditors are con-cerned that additional violations may have gone undetected.

“Our larger concern is not the proportion of containers in vio-lation, but the lack of indepen-dent verification by the DRC,” reads the audit report. “Had the DRC been independently check-ing incoming waste, it may have detected more significant com-pliance issues.”

All six divisions of the Department of Environmental Quality, including the DRC, use a regulatory model that is based on self-regulation, requiring a company to keep records and self-report violations while DEQ compliance officers review the records and test for compliance, according to Amanda Smith, DEQ executive director.

The self-regulatory model has DRC staff at EnergySolutions’ Clive facility almost on a daily basis checking for compliance, according to Rusty Lundberg, DRC director . The DRC does not, however, take physical sam-plings of waste received at Clive and independently test the waste for compliance with state regula-tions, according to Lundberg .

Checking waste received at Clive is not a simple matter of running a Geiger counter over a barrel, but rather requires check-ing for the presence of several different radioactive isotopes and concentration levels, and doing computations involving weight and volume.

Clive receives container-

ized waste and bulk waste. Containerized waste arrives in sealed containers that are not opened due to safety concerns and are placed directly into embankments at Clive. Bulk waste such as structural debris from power plant demolition arrives in large containers and is emptied from the container before final placement at Clive.

Containerized waste is sent with a manifest from the genera-tor of the waste that describes the contents of the waste. EnergySolutions uses a computer program that makes calculations using data from the manifest to determine if the waste fits the definition of Class A waste. The company uses a meter to check the radiation level of the contain-ers when they arrive at Clive to make sure the level agrees with what the manifest reports.

Bulk waste, which arrives in large transportation contain-ers, is removed and tested by EnergySolutions before being placed in a cell for final disposal.

These two self-regulat-ing procedures, performed by EnergySolutions, led to the reporting of the 37 containers of hotter waste that were shipped to Clive.

Auditors suggested that the DRC staff should travel to sites that generate radioactive waste that is shipped to Clive and check the waste for compliance before the containers are sealed. Verification of bulk waste sent to Clive could then be completed by independent tests performed on site by DRC staff.

These two steps could provide a reasonable level of assurance to legislators and the public that state laws governing low-level radioactive waste disposal are being followed, the auditors said.

The auditors also suggested that the DRC should require better reporting on the origin of waste coming to Clive to make sure that foreign waste does not end up in Utah.

Legislative auditors said information provided by EnergySolutions was insufficient to determine the origin of waste arriving in the state.

The Northwest Interstate Compact on Low-level Radioactive Waste Management, an association of eight states that Utah belongs to that regulates the disposal of low-level radioactive waste in the compact states, has instituted a ban on foreign waste, Lundberg said. The compact requires monthly reports from EnergySolutions that include the origination of waste received.

There is no state statute or regulation prohibiting foreign waste coming to Utah, accord-ing to Lundberg, who added the compact has not expressed any dissatisfaction with the reports submitted by EnergySolutions.

Rep. Doug Sagers, R-Tooele, who sits on the natural resourc-es, agriculture and environment interim committee that heard the audit report, is not sure what direction potential legislation beefing up supervision of radio-active waste disposal will take.

“I still have a lot of questions that need to be answered,” said Sagers. “I am not sure what kind of changes we will recommend.”

The Healthy Environmental Alliance of Utah is excited to see somebody other than their orga-nization calling for more over-sight of EnergySolutions.

“The audit report concluded that nobody really knows what is coming to Utah,” said Matt Pacenza, policy director for HEAL Utah. “Existing state laws have been violated, there is no independent verification or inspection going on, and this is the legislators’ own auditors tell-ing them these things, not HEAL Utah. We would welcome more state oversight of the radioactive waste that comes to [email protected]

by Siera GomezCORRESPONDENT

When Grantsville resident Juan Chok, 30, was asked by brother-in-law Leslie Luo to leave his home in Guangzhou, China, to come to Utah with his younger sister, Julie Chok, to assist in running a Chinese restaurant called Canton City in Heber City 10 years ago, he knew that it would be a lucrative opportunity for his family.

“My brother-in-law and his wife [my older sister, Elena] wanted to open more busi-nesses, so they decided to bring us — me and my smaller sister — to Utah, which is a very good place for business,” said Chok. “He needed some help opening more businesses.”

After opening Canton City restaurants in both Grantsville and Heber City with his brother-in-law, Chok helped to open the Red Wok in Stansbury Park on Sept. 17. The eatery is next to Soelberg’s Market.

“It took us about six months to open,” said Chok.

The Red Wok specializes in Thai, Chinese and Cantonese cuisine. Chok said all ingredi-ents used are always fresh.

“We have fresh products at a very low price,” he said.

Most entrees range in price from $8 to $12. The Red Wok’s most popular dishes are its chicken dishes such as sesame chicken, orange chicken, sweet and sour chicken and General Tso’s chicken.

“It’s convenient,” said Chok. “Sometimes the customers like to shop around and then stop in and buy some food.”

So far, according to Chok, the restaurant has been successful.

“The Stansbury community accepted us very good. We are very happy,” said Chok. “We received a big welcome.”

Chok said he, his older sister Elena and her husband Leslie alternate running the Red Wok and Canton City in Grantsville. Together, the three of them manage to keep their businesses running smoothly.

“I do some of everything, but

mostly I take care of the kitch-en,” said Chok. “I also work in customer service.”

Since its beginning, the Red Wok was intended to be a fam-ily-run business.

“It’s a family business with aunties, uncles and sisters,” said Chok.

Currently, there are four full-time and two part-time employ-ees working at Red Wok. The res-taurant is open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Beginning in December, the Red Wok will also be open on Sundays from 3 to 9 p.m. The restaurant is located at 6727 Hwy. 36, Suite 100 in Stansbury Park.

“The most important thing at Red Wok is being able to cook for the customers,” said Chok. “My

favorite thing is making custom-ers happy with our food.”

production, which follows a group of high school students as they research a school proj-ect about local events connect-ed with the Great Depression, will air on KBYU Eleven this Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. and Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. The local documentary will precede Ken Burns’ documentary on the Midwest’s disaster, “American History: The Dust Bowl.”

Though Grantsville and the nation’s breadbasket have many differences, many of the same factors contributed to both dust bowls. The biggest of these was a crippling drought. The generally expected amount of rainfall in the Tooele Valley area is now about 18 inches; in the 1930s “normal” was about 9 inches, and in 1934 just 3 inches of precipitation was recorded.

Where the Midwest’s prob-lem was exacerbated by over-plowing and overfarming, overgrazing by sheep nibbled away much of the sparse veg-etation in the land surrounding Grantsville, and a fire consumed what little was left. The preva-lent winds of the area were the last factor in an equation that equaled thick, blinding clouds of dust, mostly coming from the open area between Tooele and Grantsville. The first of the clouds came in 1929, but the phenomenon reached its apex in 1934 and 1935.

Tooele Valley residents inter-viewed for a 1999 documen-tary produced by Utah State University recalled hanging up wet sheets over the windows to try to keep dust from blowing indoors, and crossing the street to go to school unable to tell if cars were coming. Livestock choked on — and many died from — the filthy air, and the resulting depletion of those herds compounded further the effects of the Great Depression.

Although other settlements in Tooele County were also affected by the dust, which winds carried as far as Brigham City, Grantsville had it the worst. According to a govern-ment report on “wind erosion and dust menace” from 1935, if steps were not taken to curb the problem within two years, Grantsville would have to be abandoned.

In 1935 and 1936, those steps were taken after the Soil Conservation Service — a federal agency now known as the Natural Resources Conservation Service — was formed. Together with federal land management agencies, the service reseeded 46,000 affected acres in the Tooele Valley with crested wheat grass, and educated landowners and users on better ways to manage vegetation in the area. Much of the land lost by owners to fore-closure in the area was bought by conservation districts from the state, to allow those gov-ernment organizations to more closely monitor and control the vegetation on them.

By 1938 a new cover of veg-etation had been grown and the vicious dust storms were quelled. Grazing was allowed again on those areas within a few years. However, changes

were implemented to try to pre-vent a repeat of the disaster in the future, and the area is still carefully monitored today.

Carlos Garcia, clerk for the Grantsville Conservation District, said the district pays close attention to the use and health of the 1,258,420 total acres it has amassed since its creation. Grazing, specifically, is tightly controlled, he said. Range plans are made to make sure the schedule and place-ment of grazing don’t overtax the land, and grazing is only allowed on those areas during the winter, Garcia said.

“They monitor it, especially after grazing in the early spring and in the fall, and then they continue to monitor it during the winter. The ideal is to not graze more than 50 percent more than the annual growth [of vegetation on each section of land]. And when there is a

high cheat grass infestation, they find that grazing it more helps, because if it is grazed then it’s not a fire hazard,” Garcia said. “They keep close tabs because the local folks and everybody else look at that as an area where they don’t want a repeat of the ’30s.”

Growth is good on the east end of the space between Tooele and Grantsville, Garcia said, and the placement of Deseret Peak Complex helps prevent the likelihood of another disas-ter. However, he said, the dis-trict is currently trying to com-bat erosion west of the complex caused by unauthorized ATV riders. Ultimately, though, the most conservation districts can do is try to make as many safe-guards as possible for whatever the weather and earth happen to do.

“I guess the secret to ero-sion more than anything else is nature, because if you get

the right storms at the right times, it’s OK. If you get storms in spring, then it’s not so bad because you have the moisture and the grass responds,” he said.

Sibley’s documentary chief-ly uses the information from the 1999 documentary, and he said he was disappointed more time could not be spent on Grantsville’s dust bowl. With seven topics to cover in a half hour, he said, the most he could hope for was to briefly explain each and hope it was enough to make viewers interested in learning more on their own.

“It was impossible for us to do a 30-minute documentary on just that story,” he said. “Hopefully we can give people a taste of what was happening back in those days and leave them wanting more and want-ing to do their own research.”[email protected]

SPORTS EDITOR

A proposed realignment for the next two school years puts Grantsville High School in a smaller classification for foot-ball, but in the same classifica-tion and region as Tooele and Grantsville for all other sports.

The proposed realignment was unveiled at the Utah High School Activities Association board of directors meeting on Thursday. A public hearing will be held on Wednesday, Nov. 28 at 6 p.m. at the UHSAA office to get feedback from various districts, schools

and communities on the place-ment of schools into regions. The final realignment should be completed by Dec. 1 so schools can start finalizing schedules for next year.

The proposal puts Grantsville in the 3A football classification while Tooele and Stansbury would be in the 3AA football clas-sification. Grantsville, Tooele and Stansbury would be in the 3A classification in all other sports for the next two school years which start in the fall of 2013 and end in the spring of 2015. The UHSAA realigns schools every two years.

Grantsville would be the second largest school in the 3A football classification based on October’s enrollment of 371 students in the top two grades. The 12 3A foot-ball classification would include 12 schools with Union, Judge, Morgan, Richfield, Juab, North Sanpete, Manti, Emery, Delta, American Heritage and Summit along with Grantsville. Summit, Grand County and South Sevier are borderline schools which could eventually be placed in 2A or 3A.

“It’s great for Grantsville foot-ball except I would like to see a few more than 12 schools [in 3A

football],” said head coach Tony Cloward. “If we have only six teams in our region that would give us five region games and we would have to schedule five more non-region games. The 5A, 4A and 2A football classifications have all had ratios under two, but the problem has been with 3A where the ratio has been as high as three,” the coach said. “Having a football classification with a greater than two ratio makes it difficult for the smaller schools to compete because you need the numbers in football.”

The ratio is the enrollment dif-ferentiation between the school

with the highest enrollment in a classification and the one with the lowest enrollment in the same classification. If a classifi-cation has a school with a high of 600 students and a low school with an enrollment of 200 stu-dents that would be a “three” ratio.

Grantsville’s 3A football region would include American Leadership Academy, Summit, Morgan, Judge and Union. The other 3A football region would include North Sanpete, RIchfield, Juab, Delta, Manti and Emery.

Stansbury High School swim-ming, like the whole school, entered its fourth year of exis-tence, and with that the team looks to its seniors to lead the charge in the water.

Head coach Dan Peterson has been with the program since the beginning, and he knew building a swim program from the ground up would be difficult. Now that he has an experienced group of swimmers, as well as older swimmers who will be compet-ing in their first or second years, Peterson feels like his team can be competitive and make waves.

“I knew it would take three to four years to develop some kids that would be able to get to a level where they were really com-petitive,” Peterson said. “We’re in that fourth year, so we should see some of that hard work pay off that they put in.”

The leadership and competi-tiveness falls on seniors Ryan Brown, Jonathan Buckendorf, Jonathan Steele, Nathan Bruce, Michael Ence, Logan Andrus and Ron Topman for the boys team. Kailyn Hinston, Kirsten Asher, Danielle Williams and Hanna Taggart are the leaders for the girls team.

Stansbury is spending the early races finding where certain kids fit in what events. Peterson said he has a pretty good idea what events suit which swimmers best, but it’s nice to have the early races to see the swimmers’ times improve and possibly move them around accordingly.

“We know where certain peo-ple are going to be,” Peterson said, “but in swimming there are four individual freestyle events.

Maybe they’re a freestyler, but what of the four do we want to put them in? Which is the best for them?”

Related to that challenge, Peterson said he has swimmers who race well in multiple events. To make sure his swimmers don’t get burned out he has to decide which events the swimmers com-pete best and place them in those events.

“You kind of find that out as the season goes on and where they rank in the state,” he said. “You see what’s the best place for them to be.”

Peterson said he’s impressed with all his swimmers early on, but in the team’s meet against West High School, he felt that Bruce stood out the most with his improved times.

“He went a lot faster than he did finishing up last year,” Peterson said. “We have some kids in that same ballpark that are either at where they finished or a little faster than what they were at the state championships. So just get-ting started and being faster is a good thing.”

With the team still being new, breaking school records is a yearly occurrence, but Peterson said the kids still like to see those records come down. He said it helps the swimmers push harder and con-tinually want to break records.

“It’s nice to see them put in that time and have it pay off,” he said. “That keeps them motivated a little bit when they see that.”

The Stallions have competed in two meets thus far to open the season. Both the boys and girls teams lost to West on Nov. 8, but

the teams bounced back on Nov. 15 for wins. The girls defeated West Jordan, and lost to Judge Memorial and Murray. The boys defeated West Jordan and Judge

Memorial, but then they lost to Murray.

Swimmers of the Meet, as voted by the coaches and cap-tains, in the four-team meet were

Lydia Harrell on the girls’ side and Buckendorf on the boys’ side. The most improved swimmers were Bri Klenk and Spencer [email protected]

The high school hoops sea-son gets started on Tuesday and Wednesday, and each team will play one game before the Thanksgiving holiday.

Between the six teams in boys and girls basketball there will be three road games and three home games, with one of those road games being played right next door.

There are two boys basket-ball games and two girls bas-ketball games being played on Tuesday. On the boys’ side, the Stansbury Stallions ease over to Magna to take on the Cyprus Pirates, and the Grantsville Cowboys head south to take on the Delta Rabbits. On the girls’ side, Stansbury hosts Delta, and the Tooele Buffaloes host the Box Elder Bees. All four games start

at 7 p.m.The Tooele boys basketball

team and the Grantsville girls basketball team will both be in action on Wednesday. Tooele hosts the Wasatch Academy Tigers at 7 p.m., and the Grantsville girls head to Roosevelt to take on the Union Cougars at 4 p.m.

The Stansbury boys face a Cyprus team that is currently on a 28-game losing streak, includ-ing a winless record last year. Cyprus’ last win came on Jan. 25, 2011 against Hunter High School.

Grantsville and Delta are cer-tainly no strangers to one anoth-er in boys basketball, as the two teams renew their annual show-down. However, the Cowboys have only beaten the Rabbits twice since in the 2001-2002 season with the last win com-ing on Jan. 3, 2004. The Rabbits even tallied two wins against the

Cowboys in the 2007-2008 sea-son, winning one of those games in the state tournament. Last year’s contest was a 56-46 win for Delta in Grantsville.

Cowboys coach Chris Baker said he’s concerned with Delta’s depth and the size of its post players. Baker said the Cowboys will have to compete as hard as they can.

“We have awesome senior leadership this year,” Baker said. “I think we’re going to surprise some people.”

The girls matchup between Stansbury and Delta features two teams that are coming off first-round playoff exits in the 2011-2012 season. Stansbury lost 56-32 to Juab High School, and Delta lost 40-39 to Bear River High School on a buzzer-beater shot.

“This will be a good game to gauge where we’re at,” Stansbury

coach Kenzie Newton said. “Delta is always a competitive team so it gives us a chance to see where we’re at and what we need to work on.”

Newton said she and her team are excited to get back out on the floor. She said this year’s Stansbury girls are the closest she’s seen as far as team chem-istry goes, so she’s interested to see how the cohesiveness grows throughout the season.

Box Elder’s girls take on Tooele looking for a win early after los-ing their final eight games in the 2011-2012 season. The Tooele girls picked up some momen-tum to round out last season, winning three of their final five games.

Tooele girls coach Kris Ashby said his team doesn’t have a lot of varsity experience right now, so it’s important to start strong.

“It’s important to get them

competing,” Ashby said. “We need to make sure we’re playing hard and executing.”

Ashby said the youth of his girls has brought a lot of excite-ment coming into this season as the team tries to pick up where it left off. The team missed the state tournament, but he said that it’s made the girls eager to get back out and compete.

Wasatch Academy’s boys come into Tooele fresh off a 22-3 season in 2011-2012, finishing as the fifth-place team in the state 2A basketball tournament.

The Grantsville girls hope to get off the snide once and for all when they take on Union. Grantsville has lost 33 games in a row, dating back to their last win on Dec. 20, 2010 against Tooele. Union also doesn’t have much to write home about, finishing last season with a record of [email protected]

As a coach for the Utah USA Wrestling youth program, Tyson Linnell already knew a few of the wrestlers at Stansbury High School after working with them on the club level in the Salt Lake City area. Now, he will know every boy participating in wres-tling at SHS.

The 30-year-old Linnell is about to embark on his first season as head coach of the Stallion wrestling program after spending the last five years as the head wrestling coach at Kearns High School. Practices at Stansbury began the first of this month and this year’s edition of SHS wrestling will take to the mats for the first time in front of the public at the Black and Blue Brawl slated for 6 p.m. on Nov. 29 at the high school.

“I grew up in a small town down in Scipio and then moved to the Salt Lake area and wrestled at Copper Hills High School,” Linnell said. “I really wanted to get out here to a small-town area. A lot of the young kids I helped develop as wrestlers at Kearns would sometimes later end up wrestling at some other high school. Working with youth out here I know most of them will end up wrestling here at the high school.”

Linnell was hired back in August and he and his wife moved to Tooele and plan to buy a house soon in the Stansbury Park- Erda area.

“My goal is to help improve the wrestling overall through-out Tooele Valley so all the high schools can have strong wres-tling programs. I’ve worked with Tooele coach Gary Coffman and his son Zach and there is no bad

blood there,” Linnell said.The more immediate goal for

this year is to get about 35 stu-dents involved with wrestling at Stansbury High School. “The main goal is to get the num-bers up. This year we will have a young team with five or six very good individuals. We’d like to finish in the top three in the region and the top 15 at state,” Linnell said.

The new coach has a solid resume in developing champi-onship wrestlers. During his first year as head coach at Kearns the team finished last in the region and qualified one person for state. In the last three years at Kearns, the Cougars have fin-ished in the top 10 in the state

at the 5A level with one state champion and 10 wrestlers who placed at state.

Linnell also excelled in his four years as a prep wrestler at Copper Hills High School. He finished fifth in state as a soph-omore at 119, third in state as a junior at 125 and third in state at a senior at 125.

After his high school stint, Linnell went on to wrestle at NAIA school Dana College in Blair, Neb. where he earned College All-American honors. He wrestled there for three years in the 141-pound division.

“I picked up a lot of the things I use in coaching from my col-lege coach. I learned that you must lead by example. I get in

there and do all the stuff I want my kids to do as far as condi-tioning and practicing,” the SHS coach said.

Linnell enjoys working with the youth and has been on the board of directors of Utah USA Wrestling the past three years.

After the Black and Blue Brawl, the Stallions won’t be at home until they host the Stallion Stampede on Dec. 21-22. Their first competition is at the Layton Invitational on Nov. 30- Dec. 1. The first region dual meet is at Bear River on Dec. 12 and the Stallions will wrestle at Tooele on Dec. [email protected]

New coach will lead SHS wrestlers

Stansbury High School wrestling coach Tyson Linnell poses for a photo at the school’s wrestling room Thursday. Linnell coached the past five seasons at Kearns High School and now takes over as the new coach in Stansbury.

Stansbury would be the third largest school in 3AA football with 739 students in the top two grades. Tooele would be ninth in enrollment numbers for 3AA football based on their 612 stu-dents currently in the top two grades. A total of 15 schools would compete in 3AA football including Ben Lomond, Uintah, Snow Canyon, Dixie, Park City, Pine View, Desert Hillls, Bear River, Hurricane, Cedar City, Canyon View, Carbon and Juan Diego.

“We would still like to play our two local rival schools if they can fit it in, but they will have more teams in their region so they may not be able to schedule us. We match up better against Tooele than Stansbury,” Cloward said.

Stansbury and Tooele would be in a football region with Bear River, Ben Lomond, Carbon, Juan Diego, Park City and Uintah. The other 3AA football region would include Canyon View, Cedar City, Desert HIlls, Dixie, Hurricane, Pine View and Snow Canyon.

The UHSAA has not deter-mined how the regions will be numbered, but the original pro-posal has Grantsville, Stansbury and Tooele in the same region with Bear River, Ben Lomond and Morgan for all sports except foot-ball. Current Region 11 member Ogden would move up to 4A in all sports.

There would be two regions for 3AA football and two regions for 3A football. [email protected]

STAFF WRITER

The Tooele swim team compet-ed in the Cedar City Invitational on Friday and Saturday with the girls finishing tied for first place with Cedar and the boys finish-ing in fourth place out of eight teams.

The result left head coach Mel Roberts disappointed at first, but he was pleased to see his swim-mers bounce back on Saturday to finish the meet strong.

“We did not swim very well on Friday,” Roberts said. “We had a couple of team meetings and talk-ed about how we could do better on Saturday. It must have worked because [the swimmers] came out a different team the next morning and finished up in great style.”

Friday’s top performances

went to Kelly Clonts, Tajia Perkins, Peter Imlay, Brandon Johnson and the girls 200 medley relay team. Clonts was just edged out by Cedar’s Jaime Slack in the girls 200 Freestyle. Clonts finished with a time of 2:13.69 behind Slack’s 2:13.32. Perkins took first place in the 200 individual medley with a time of 2:31.89, beating Emery’s Laryssa Guymon, who finished with a time of 2:32.32. Pleasant Grove’s Aaron Cookson ran away with the boys 200 Freestyle with a time of 1:51.07, but Imlay led the rest of the pack to finish sec-ond with a time of 2:02.09. Imlay was just ahead of Davis’ Jesse Halls, who finished with a time of 2:02.10. Johnson finished with his career-best time in the boys 200 individual medley. He took sec-

ond place with a time of 2:05.20. Finally, the relay team of Brook Baker, Alexis Hardy, BethAnne Chevalier and Perkins won the girls 200 medley relay with a time of 2:04.81.

Tooele’s top performances on Saturday were started when the girls earned six of the top 12 spots in the 100 fly, highlighted by Clonts’ fifth-place finish at 1:13.91. Chevalier took first place in the 100 freestyle at 1:01.21, and she was followed by Natalee Headman, who took third place with a time of 1:03.20. Chevalier and Headman joined Hardy and Clonts to win the 400 freestyle relay with a time of 4:11.43.

The boys were highlighted by Johnson winning the 100 Fly at 56 seconds. He was followed by Quinten Smith’s career-best in the 100 freestyle. Smith had a time of :53.19 to finish in second place.

Imlay recorded his career-best in the 500 freestyle to finish second at 5:28.53. Johnson, Smith, Imlay and Kieson Steward won the 400 freestyle relay together at 3:36.16.

“This was a great meet for our team,” Roberts said. “Everyone we took had the opportunity to com-pete against swimmers of equal ability and get in some great rac-ing. We only get to have that kind of competition a couple of times a year.”

Roberts said the team is learn-ing and getting better with every meet. He said he’s proud of the way the team’s veterans stepped up and accepted the challenge of leadership thus far. He said he’s also proud of the newcomers for trying to improve and contribute to the team’s success.

Tooele girls tie for first in Cedar CityTHS SWIMMING

by David BrandtAP SPORTS WRITER

RUSTON, La. (AP) — Utah State had lost its offense, its 24-point lead and any semblance of momentum.

Kerwynn Williams and the Aggies’ defense made sure they didn’t lose the game.

Williams rushed for a 4-yard touchdown in overtime and Utah State stopped Louisiana Tech’s pro-lific offense in just four plays to lift the Aggies to a 48-41 overtime victory over the No. 19 Bulldogs on Saturday.

“We knew victory was close if we wanted it,” Williams said. “We just had to go out there and take it from them. That was a great team we played tonight and they battled back. We knew we’d have to take this one.”

The win gives Utah State (9-2, 5-0 Western Athletic Conference) at least a share of the conference title, with only lowly Idaho left on the schedule.

And boy, did the Aggies have to earn it.

Keeton threw for 340 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for 121 yards and two touchdowns for Utah State (9-2, 5-0), which recov-ered to win despite giving up what looked like an insurmountable lead.

Williams added 162 rushing yards and two touchdowns. He also caught four passes for 125 yards and a touchdown.

His 1-yard touchdown run gave Utah State a 41-17 with 1:00 minute remaining in the third quarter.

It looked like a backbreaker. But Louisiana Tech roared back, tying the game on Matt Nelson’s 32-yard field goal as time expired in regula-tion.

“Things can go wrong at times, but that can’t determine the rest of the game,” Williams said. “You have to keep your head on straight and power through.”

The Aggies scored on their first offensive play — an 86-yard touch-

down after a screen pass from Keeton to Williams — and racked up 646 yards of total offense.

Louisiana Tech’s Colby Cameron threw an interception late in the second quarter, snapping his NCAA-record streak of 445 pass attempts without an interception.

Cameron completed 35 of 60 passes for 396 yards, one touch-down and two interceptions.

Utah State improved its record to 2-50 against nationally-ranked teams, including a 1-39 mark on the road.

Keeton, a 6-foot-1, 200-pound sophomore from Houston, made several big plays with his arm and his feet. The Aggies needed all of them.

“When you have an athletic quar-terback who is smart and can throw the ball, it’s a vicious weapon,” Utah State coach Gary Anderson said. “This team believes in Chucky. The coaching staff believes in Chucky. He’s doing great things and will continue to do great things.”

Even with the heroics by Keeton and Williams, it looked like this one might slip away from the Aggies.

But Louisiana Tech’s overtime drive fell short, with a fourth-and-3 run falling well short of the first down marker.

“Maybe we were a little emotion-ally done at that point,” Louisiana Tech coach Sonny Dykes said. “We battled so much to get back in — I don’t know if we ran out of gas down the stretch.”

Utah State continues an excellent stretch of football under Anderson, who is in his fourth season. The Aggies have won five straight and 14 of 17 dating back to last season — the best run for the program since the early 1970s.

Next to Louisiana Tech’s shock-ing offensive numbers this season, Utah State’s looked pedestrian. The Bulldogs came into the game among the nation’s best in nearly every offensive category, averag-ing 53.4 points and 576.5 yards per game.

Utah State frustrated Louisiana Tech’s offense at first.

“We felt like other teams weren’t getting in their face, especially when they started scoring,” Utah State cornerback Will Davis said.

He was the one who picked off the pass to end Cameron’s comple-tion streak.

“We just felt that we had to get aggressive,” Davis said. “The refs let everybody play and it was an aggressive game. They score a lot of points and they went off in the second half, but we were fighting the whole time.”

The Aggies led 14-0 at the end of the first quarter and had a 245-40 advantage in total yards.

The two teams traded field goals in the second quarter and Utah State took a 17-3 lead into halftime. The Bulldogs had a chance to score a touchdown late in the second quarter, but Cameron’s pass was intercepted by Davis in the end zone.

Utah State struck again on the first drive after halftime. A big 43-yard pass from Keeton to Chuck Jacobs set up Keeton’s 13-yard touchdown run one play later, and the Aggies took a 24-3 lead, which was stretched to 27-3 minutes later after a 30-yard field goal.

Louisiana Tech’s offense finally woke up midway through the third quarter with an 11-play, 78-yard drive that ended with Kenneth Dixon’s 2-yard touchdown run and pulled the Bulldogs within 27-10.

Dixon finished with 113 rushing yards and two touchdowns.

From that point, the Bulldogs were moving the ball fine. They just couldn’t stop the Aggies.

Louisiana Tech came into the game ranked No. 20 in the latest Bowl Championship Series stand-ings and hoped to be the latest out-sider to crash the BCS party. Now the Bulldogs probably won’t even win the WAC title.

If anything, it was the Aggies who looked like they were worthy of national consideration.

Utah State beats No. 19 La. Tech, 48-41 in overtime

GHS TENNIS PLAYER OVERCOMES OBSTACLES AND RALLIES AT THE GAME SHE LOVES

P H O T O S M A E G A N B U R R | S T O R Y W H I T L E Y E R N S T

Grantsville High School freshman Morgan Matthews poses for a photo Friday after-

noon at the Grantsville tennis courts.

Although this year’s tennis season ended nearly two months ago, for freshman Morgan Matthews of Grantsville High School, it turned out to be one of her greatest successes: She

took first place at region in girl’s junior varsity. Getting to that level of success wasn’t an easy task for Matthews.

At the age of 2, she was diag-nosed with neuroblastoma — a cancer that forms in nerve tissue and often begins in early child-hood. In Matthews’ case, the can-cer was running down her spinal cord. One doctor told her parents that if they didn’t do a bone mar-row transplant, Matthews would have a less than 5 percent chance of surviving. Matthew’s parents took her to another doctor at

Primary Children’s Hospital in Salt Lake to get a second opin-ion. This doctor didn’t suggest a bone marrow transplant, but he did want to remove the cancer from Matthews’ body. In 2000, Matthews received surgery to remove the cancer.

During the surgery, one of the surgeons accidentally nicked the nerve that controls the move-ments of the foot and ankle,

which is why Matthews now has drop foot — the dropping of the forefoot due to damage to the peroneal nerve or paralysis of the muscles in the anterior portion of the lower leg.

“We were mad at the doctor and hated him for making this mistake, but at the same time we loved him because he saved

Trivia Test Answers

Q: I am a big fan of “Sons of Anarchy,” and I was wondering who the pretty blonde is? She was on a couple of episodes and played Karen. I know I’ve seen her on something else prior to this. — Geri R., via e-mail

A: Tara Summers, who turns 33 in December, plays Dr. Karen Dunhill on FX’s rough-and-tumble, motorcycle-filled crime drama. Tara is a TV and film vet who’s been in lots of series and feature film, including “Alfie,” “Boston Legal,” “Dirt,” “Factory Girl,” “Damages” and “Ringer.” You can see her this winter in the feature film “Hitchcock,” which stars Anthony Hopkins (as Alfred

Hitchcock) and Helen Mirren (as his wife, Alma Reville), with Tara playing Rita Riggs.

Tara told me what it was like working with the two legendary actors: “Helen Mirren ... it’s really like her movie. She’s extraordi-nary. It focuses on the love story between Hitchcock and his wife, and how she was the silent part-ner in the operation. His wife had a lot more to do with it than we will ever know. And Anthony Hopkins is one of my heroes, and he was so generous and so kind. He’s always in a good mood, and just so amazing to work with and to watch.”

• • •Q: My friend told me that the

CW is remaking “Sex and the City.” Is that true? If so, why? It was great as it was on HBO. — Penny W., Seattle

A: The CW is not remaking the hit HBO series, which starred Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall. Rather, they bought the rights to the prequel, “The

Carrie Diaries,” based on the book written by “Sex” author Candace Bushnell. “The Carrie Diaries” — set in the 1980s — chronicles Carrie Bradshaw’s (played by AnnaSophia Robb) coming-of-age as she navigates her senior year of high school and discovers the glittering lights of Manhattan, and lots of shoes. “The Carrie Diaries” premieres on the CW on Monday, Jan. 14, at 8/7c, followed by “90210,” which moves to 9/8c.

• • •Q: I was a big fan of “The

Cosby Show,” and I wondered whatever happened to the actor who played Rudy’s friend, Stanley, on the show. — Justin W., via e-mail

A: Merlin Santana, who went on to play Ohagi on “Moesha” and Romeo on “The Steve Harvey Show,” died on 2002 at the age of 26. Tragically, he was falsely accused of attempted rape of 15-year-old Monique King, so her boyfriend, Brandon

Bynes, shot Merlin six times, killing him. Brandon received three consecutive life sen-tences plus 70 years in prison, while Monique received eight years in juvenile custody.

• • •Q: When will

“Cougar Town” be back? — Jennifer T., Tampa

A: TBS has announced that “Cougar Town” will return for a 15-episode fourth season begin-ning Tuesday, Jan. 8. So raise a glass (of red wine, of course) to the return of your favorite cul-de-sac gang, as they begin a new era on a new network. I can’t wait!

ASSOCIATED PRESS

For the Kent family of Amherst, N.H., getting dressed for the holi-days often means lacing up hiking boots or buckling a helmet. For the last 11 years, they have made a tradition of spending many Thanksgivings, Christmases and Easters at a national park doing something active.

Many Americans find holiday breaks an ideal time to pursue fitness-oriented activities, from holiday-themed races to just exercising together.

“More communities are offer-ing family-oriented events. It just creates another opportuni-ty to create lasting memories,” said Cheryl Richardson, senior director of programs for the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance, in Reston, Va.

The Kents’ children — Tanner, 18, and Peyton, 16 — have explored caves in Carlsbad Caverns National Park in New Mexico, hiked glaciers in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park in Alaska and rock-climbed in Yosemite National Park in California.

“People associate holidays with a sit-down meal like Easter ham or Thanksgiving turkey,” said their mom, Lisa Kent. “We were replacing it with hiking or an outdoor adventure.”

Myrna Ryti and her family still enjoy a Thanksgiving meal but they do it after running or walk-ing in the Huffing for Stuffing Thanksgiving Day Run held in Bozeman, Mont.

“It makes for a wonderful way for a family to start the day,” said Ryti, who runs the 5-kilometer race with her daughter and son-in-law. Other members of the family, including her 4-year-old grandson, Cooper Bourret, walk

the course.“The first year, he rode in his

jogging stroller,” she said. “He loves it.”

His mother, Kalli Ryti, loves that it’s an opportunity to stress the importance of exercise. “It sets a great example,” she said. “Throughout the year, we go and practice. He likes to put on his number and we run around the block.”

The event, which serves as

a fundraiser for the local food bank, has a real community feel to it, Myrna Ryti said. “It attracts lots and lots of folks. It shows where you’re putting your priori-ties.”

Running a 5K also can make you feel less guilty about eat-ing sweet potato pie, said Christy Rezabek, who runs the Turkey Trot race with her husband, Doug, every year in Huntsville, Ala.

“We get up and run. We know we’re going to be eating bunches of junk food,” she said.

She and her family were pre-paring for the St. Jude Research Hospital’s annual marathon, in Memphis on Dec. 1. The race, which attracts some runners in Christmas-themed clothing, is normally scheduled between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Doug Rezabek plans to run the full marathon, his wife the half marathon and their three chil-dren the 5K. And they’re motivat-ed by more than fitness: Christy Rezabek’s daughter, Lakelee Leach, 8, has been treated for cancer at the hospital.

“St. Jude’s does so much,” Christy said. “We wanted to give back.”

They have enjoyed training together, she said, part of their efforts to be active as a family.

“We’re not the (parents) that sit on the sidelines and watch,” she said. “When they go ice skat-ing or play baseball, we go ice skating or play baseball.”

Teaching children the value of physical health is also important to Robert Tuchman, a father of two in New York City. His family’s traditions include a trip to a fit-ness fair at The JCC in Manhattan on New Year’s Day. The event is sponsored by The JCC’s Marti M. Meyerson Center for Health and Wellness.

“Most gyms are closed on New Year’s Day,” said JCC spokes-woman Erica Werber. “We’re open. We want to be there for the community.”

Many families are grateful for opportunities to exercise togeth-er at the holidays, said Jerry Bocci, whose family has orga-nized a New Year’s Eve run in Belle Isle Park in Detroit since 1970. Families come out in all kinds of weather to participate in the 5K or children’s run.

“The kids have a good time in the sometimes snow, sometimes sleet,” he said. “When you look out over the crowd, there are a lot of smiles.”

ANNIVERSARY

COMMUNITY NEWSA tribute to Larry Sagers

Larry Sagers was a very brilliant manHis policy was to teach and help everyone you can.

He had a great family, they supported all his dreams,He kept on learning and giving to all each day it seems,

To all who knew him, he was the best, he shared all that he knew,Even on the radio, he seemed amazing there too.

He loved to travel, Diane was his mate,They took us world-wide, always on a perfect date,

“Ever Hearda Erda” was his welcome on the bus,We loved his sense of humor, it endeared him to all of us.

What a sad thought each Saturday morning on KSL, you know,We won’t hear his amazing thoughts on plants and how to make them grow.

Larry was a busy man, a master gardener in our state,He shared his endless knowledge on the air, in classes and helped create.

We must carry on, keep the commandments and always do our best,To live and share the gospel, so we too may pass the test.

We’ll always remember our dear Dad, our mate and friend,His sweet memory will stay and comfort us, until we meet again.

Fallen local soldier Spc. Jordan Byrd was honored for Veteran’s Day by a non-profit organization in Mantua, Ohio, called Heroes Rock. The organization presented Byrd’s 2-year-old son Aiden with a custom-carved wooden rocking chair. The chair was carved in the shape of a medical Humvee and included a graphic of a bird on its side.

‘The Prince and the Dragon’TELL ME A STORY

B5

(a fairytale)adapted by Amy Friedman and illustrated by Jillian Gilliland

Once upon a time there lived an emperor who had three sons. One morning the eldest prince set out to hunt. A plump hare

sprang out of the thicket, and the prince chased it over a hill and into a valley, until at last the hare raced into a mill that stood beside a river. When the prince entered, instead of a hare, he found a fire-breathing dragon. The prince turned to run, but a fiery tongue coiled around his waist and drew him into the dragon’s mouth and he was seen no more!

When the prince did not return home, the sec-ond son went in search. Just like his brother, he saw a hare as soon as he entered the forest. He chased it to the mill and the mighty dragon swal-lowed him, too!

Back home the emperor waited and waited. When the youngest son said he wished to go in search of his brothers, the emperor refused, but the prince begged and pleaded. At last the emper-or gave his permission and had the finest horse in the palace saddled for him.

The young prince set out. Like his brothers, he chased the hare up hills and down into valleys and to the mill, but when the hare dashed through the mill door, the young prince, who was wiser than his brothers, did not follow.

Instead he turned and rode away, in search of other game to hunt.

That evening he returned to the mill and found an old woman sitting out front. “Have you seen a hare?” he asked.

“That was no hare,” the woman said. “That was the dragon that has eaten many men. Go home at once before he eats you too!”

“Alas, my poor brothers!” cried the prince.“Come away with me from this dreadful place,”

he said to the woman. But she shook her head and explained that the dragon had taken her prisoner, and she too was under his enchantment, and she could not escape.

The young prince thought a while. “Ask the dragon where he goes when he leaves the mill,” he said, “and ask him what makes him so strong. I shall return, and you will share those secrets with me.”

Then the prince galloped home.When the dragon returned, the old woman

asked where he had been. “Far away,” the dragon said.

The old woman began to flatter him, praising his strength and his cleverness, and when he was in a good mood, she said, “If you tell me where you get your strength, I shall kiss it in gratitude.”

The dragon puffed out his chest. “My strength

lies in the hearthstone,” he said, and when the old woman kissed the hearth, the drag-on laughed.

“Fool!” he said. “I was joking. My strength lies in the tree here.”

The woman wrapped her arms around the tree and kissed it, and again the dragon laughed.

“You cannot believe my strength comes from a tree. My strength lies in a faraway kingdom, near its capital city, in a lake where a dragon sleeps. Inside that dragon is a wild boar, and inside that boar is a hare, and inside that hare is a pigeon, and inside that pigeon is a sparrow. Inside that spar-row lies my strength.”

The morning after the dragon departed, the prince returned, and the old woman shared the dragon’s secrets.

The prince formed a plan. He dressed as a shepherd and rode to a distant kingdom where the emperor was seeking a shepherd.

He offered his services, and the emperor hired him and said, “Outside the city walls there is a lake, and by its banks are the richest meadows. As you lead the flocks, they will race there, but if they reach those meadows they will never return. Protect them from that place.”

The prince promised to keep the sheep safe. In the market he bought a hawk, a set of pipes and two greyhounds, and with these he took the sheep out to pasture. When the sheep saw the lake, they began to run toward it.

The prince set the hawk on a tree branch, laid his pipes on the grass, and bade the greyhounds to sit. Then he waded into the water and cried, “Dragon, if you are not a coward, come out and fight me!”

Out of the water emerged a huge and horrible creature, and they fought until the sun rose high in the sky. Then the dragon gasped and said, “Let me dip my burning head into the lake and I will hurl you to the top of the sky.”

The prince laughed. “Ah, if only the emperor’s daughter were here, she would kiss my forehead, and I would throw you higher still.”

The dragon let loose his hold and fell into the lake.

The prince took his hawk upon his shoulder, and with his greyhounds in front and his flock fol-lowing him, he set out for the city, playing on his pipes. As they passed through the streets, people stared. A flock of sheep had never before returned from the lake.

The emperor’s horsemen had been spying on him, and they ran to tell the emperor what they’d

seen. The emperor sent for his daughter and told her she must go with the shepherd the next day. This she did, and it happened just as the day before, but this time when the prince said, “If the emperor’s daughter kissed my forehead,” she did just that, and the prince flung the dragon straight up into the clouds.

When he fell to earth, he burst into a thousand pieces, and out sprang a boar. The hounds chased the boar and caught it and tore it to bits. Out came a hare, and the hounds caught this too and tore it to bits. Then out came a pigeon that flew into the sky.

The prince set loose his hawk, which swooped

upon the pigeon and brought it to his master. The prince cut him open and found the sparrow inside. “Where are my brothers?” he asked.

“Behind your father’s castle stands a mill. In the mill are three twigs. Cut these and strike the earth, and the iron cellar door will open. There you will find your brothers,” said the sparrow.

The prince hurried to his native land. In the mill he found the twigs, struck the earth and the iron door flew open, and countless people streamed forth.

There were his brothers, overjoyed to hear the tale of their brother’s wisdom and courage, and in every kingdom there was celebration.

on Environmental Quality Regulations for Implementing the Procedural

Provisions of NEPA (40 CFR Parts 1500-1508) and NASA policy and

procedures (14 CFR Part 1216 Subpart 1216.3).

The Draft EA is available for public review at

her life,” said Sheila Matthews, Morgan’s mother. “We wanted her to be normal. We didn’t know if she would be able to skip and hop around like other kids at school. We knew that she would be slower than them, but she has never complained about her problem. My hus-band and I have probably com-plained more than she has.”

Morgan has to wear a brace

constantly that makes it easier for her to control her foot and ankle.

“It’s hard to find shoes that fit with the brace,” Morgan said. “I can’t wear flip flops, but since I’m in tennis shoes all the time anyway it doesn’t really bother me.”

Morgan started playing ten-nis when her mom signed her up for lessons when she was 10. It turned out that she was better at it than any other sport she had tried. Since then, Morgan has played tennis with a fierce

determination. She finds an opponents’ weakness and uses it against them.

“Morgan always plays rock solid,” Sheila said. “There isn’t a match where she doesn’t give it her all.”

Morgan’s nickname on the tennis team is M-80 — M for Morgan and 80 because she won several matches in a row to gain a personal record of 8-0.

“Morgan has a lot of guts,” said Scott Matthews, Morgan’s father. “She knows that she has to work harder then everyone else and she puts in that effort to be at that level. She doesn’t have a disability. She just has to work harder than everyone else.”

Morgan said her whole sum-mer before starting high school was spent at the tennis court. Because of her determination, she said she could always see when and where the ball was coming. She could calculate it and put herself in the right

position. “Out of the seven girls we had

on junior varsity, four of them were freshmen,” said head tennis coach Steve Thurgood. “Our No. 1 player was Morgan. Mobility might get to be an issue, but if she keeps guessing where the ball is coming like she’s been doing then she will be able to go really far. I think Morgan will probably be on var-sity next year. Sometimes when you watch her play, you get scared because you think she won’t make it, but she always gets there.”

As her skill level increases it will get harder for her to keep up with the competition.

“She is such an inspiration and she doesn’t even realize it,” Sheila said. “That’s what makes her so special, that she thinks she is just like everybody else. She always has a good attitude and she inspires people she doesn’t even know.”

Morgan said sometimes her

opponents underestimate her, but when she starts to play, they quickly see how good she is.

“Tennis is very mental and I can’t let them get inside my head,” she said. “Even if they

are ahead I block it out and do my best to still win. I think ten-nis will be the only sport I play in high school. I want to focus on it as much as I can so that one day I can place at state.”

GJHS students sign pledge to remain tobacco free

The American Cancer Society marked the 37th Great American Smokeout on Nov. 15 by encour-aging smokers to use the date to make a plan to quit, or to plan in advance and quit smoking that day. By quitting — even for one day — smokers will be taking an important step toward a health-ier life that can lead to reducing cancer risk.

Students at Grantsville Junior High School signed a pledge to remain tobacco free. The “ghost out” is the way we use to symbol-

ize the tobacco-related deaths that can shorten someone's life. Each person chosen to represent an illness has their faces painted white and are asked not to com-municate with other students for the rest of the day.

By the end of the day we had 66 students affected. The students were ghosted out to represent that one out of every five adults dies from a smoking-related dis-eases. Tobacco use remains the single largest preventable cause of disease and premature death in the U.S.

Last Thanksgiving, Scott Heimendinger strapped on a pair of safety goggles, told his family to stand back, and plunged his deconstructed tur-key into a roasting pan of smok-ing hot oil.

“We had a long-time tradi-tion of making a turducken, but we’d do it from scratch, bone all the birds ourselves,” says the 29-year-old director of applied research for modernist cuisine guru Nathan Myhrvold.

Instead of turducken — a duck inside a chicken inside a turkey — this year, Heimendinger cut his turkey into pieces, injected it with brine and cooked it in the water bath known as sous vide. The goggles and safety perim-eter were for protection as he afterward seared the skin in a roasting pan of smoking hot oil. “The whole family was unani-mous that this was the best tur-key they’d ever had,” he says. “I fully intend to do that this year.”

Thanksgiving can be an adven-turous cook’s bonanza, offering myriad ways to riff on familiar themes and traditions. New York chef Marc Forgione has been known to bone the turkey and roll it up with the stuffing inside, or to stuff the bird under the skin. And Heimendinger prob-ably isn’t the only one cooking his turkey sous vide.

On this holiday of eating, tur-key tricks and extravagant foods are all sure to impress. But chefs and cookbook writers say bowl-ing over your guests may be eas-ier than you think. And that it goes way beyond the cooking.

“Your table setting has to wow them,” says Rick Rodgers, author of “Thanksgiving 101” (William Morrow, 2007). “Every year I do a different table set-ting. ... Now my guests walk in and go `We have to see the table!’ People take photos, and they’re Facebooking it all over.”

Rogers might use an antique ceramic turkey as the center-piece, or gourds and pumpkins jumbled with votive candles. Half-burnt tapers in autumnal colors like orange and cream make an elegant table, just as kitschy Pilgrim candles create a festive atmosphere. Sometimes Rodgers puts a foil-covered chocolate turkey at each place, or does something as small as

tying up the napkins with raffia.“It takes two seconds and

people think you’re an enter-taining god,” he says.

Offering a house cocktail is another easy way to score big with little effort. Artisan hard cider with a cinnamon-stick stir-rer has the fizz of Champagne but the taste of the season. Spiked punch, a cranberry kir, or a drink made with bourbon — an American spirit — can all set the mood.

"Something like that is a nice touch,” Forgione says. “Whenever you start the day or evening with a nice cocktail it lets you know this is going to be a party.”

And opulent treats don’t have to be complicated. A cock-tail of colossal shrimp makes a gorgeous appetizer, Rodgers says, and a dish of caviar adds class. For the green bean salad, Forgione says, go the extra mile and boil some fresh beans.

“Always think of things you know people don’t have a lot of,” Rodgers says. “Wild mush-rooms. Truffle oil. Anything that says ‘I’ve taken extra care for you.’”

Of course, if you’re a food geek like Heimendinger, you’ll want to carry the show through the end of the meal, maybe preparing a dessert in the style of the res-taurant Alinea, Chicago’s mecca of modernist cuisine, where the course is plated directly on the silicon table cloth, and finished with a dramatic shattering of edible vases filled with cotton candy and other treasures.

“If you really wanted to do drama that’s what you could do,” Heimendinger says. “But even the idea of eating dessert without plates would be very cool.”

Others believe the most impressive element of the meal is something far more mun-dane.

“This is going to sound like such a simple thing, but don’t overcook your turkey,” Forgione says. “The turkey roulade and stuffing under the skin, we do that at the restaurant because people are coming and they’re spending a lot of money. We like to fancy it up. But if I’m at home and there are 12 or 15 people at the table, if you cook a perfectly roasted turkey, there’s something very satisfying about that.”
