everythingA little bit of

I seem to be telling you a lot of my childhood memories these days, and while I wish I could say I’m draw-

ing from some other experience this week, back to childhood it is.

As a kid growing up in one of those neighborhoods where my peers spent all summer having snowcone stands, riding bikes to the gas station for treats, jumping on tram-polines and playing Chinese jump rope, I fell in love with night games at some point. I lived in the suburbs where there were always enough kids close by for a good game of Steal the Flag or Kick the Can. Around dusk we would start running around knocking on each others’ doors, inviting all our friends to one main cul-de-sac where we had four yards to use for our antics.

We would hide behind cars and trees, sometimes creeping along in the grass while trying to steal the other team’s flag or be the first to kick the can. Being the

excitable person that I am, it was all I could do not to scream when an opponent was close by, sure that my cover was almost blown.

Have I mentioned I love summer? I know I have. I love those nights when it’s so warm you just want to run barefoot with friends in the dark. Sadly, I think the last time I played Steal the Flag was a few years ago in college, but I still like getting out when the summer evenings are in full force. I love night hiking and swimming, going on walks and sitting out waiting for fireworks. I like when the sidewalk is warm enough for me to go without shoes.

Tonight’s Gallery Walk provides the perfect opportunity to get outside on a summer night. Knock on your friends’ doors and invite them to go with you to see beautiful art and hear local music. It’s all downtown, like a little neighbor-hood. And when the sun goes down, if it’s warm enough, you can go to a park or relax in your yard, and take off your shoes in the grass.

“Amadeus,” the noted drama by playwright Peter Shaffer, is the fourth show to join the 2011 summer rotation with Utah State Univer-sity’s Old Lyric Reper-tory Company. The pro-duction opens July 13 at the historic Caine Lyric Theatre in downtown Logan, 28 W. Center Street.

Described as “strange-ly enriching,” the Tony Award-winning play orchestrates politics, tal-ent, religion, beauty and intrigue as seen through the eyes of the tortured and jealous composer Antonio Salieri.

The OLRC production of “Amadeus” runs July 13, 14, 16, 19, 22, 27, 30 and Aug. 1. Curtain time is 7:30 p.m. with select-ed matinee performances at 2 p.m. (see the sched-ule online for dates).

The 2011 Old Lyric Repertory Company sea-son also features “The 39 Steps,” “Little Shop of Horrors,” and “See How They Run.” The OLRC performance sea-son is June 16-Aug. 6.

Led by artistic direc-tor Dennis Hassan, the OLRC is a professional theater program based in the Department of Theatre Arts in the Caine College of the Arts at Utah State.

“The 39 Steps” is an adaptation of the classic Hitchcock spy story and a Cache Valley premiere. Four actors portray doz-ens of characters in this classic murder mystery.

A Lyric favorite, “Little Shop of Horrors,” is this year’s comedy-horror musical. The main character, Seymour

Krelborn, hits a streak of luck when he discovers a strange and interesting plant that takes him on an exciting and danger-ous adventure.

“See How They Run,” written by Philip King, is British farce at its best, complete with slamming doors, mistaken identi-ties, and of course, miss-ing trousers.

Tickets for OLRC productions can be pur-

chased by visiting the Caine College of the Arts Box Office at Utah State University in room 139-B of the Chase Fine Arts Center open 9 a.m. -noon, Monday through Friday; by calling 435-797-8022 or online (arts.usu.edu). Tickets are also available at the Caine Lyric Theatre from 1-5 p.m., Monday through Friday and an hour prior to curtain on

show nights. Individual ticket prices range from $18-$25 for adults, $15-$21 for seniors and USU faculty and staff and $12-$18 for USU stu-dents and youth.

More information about the Old Lyric Repertory Company and its 2011 season, includ-ing the complete per-formance calendar and schedule is online (arts.usu.edu/lyric).

Old Lyric presents ‘Amadeus’

Utah Festival Opera & Musical

Theatre is pleased to present a staged con-cert of Franz Lehár’s gorgeous “The Merry Widow” on July 13 at 7:30 p.m., July 20 at 1 p.m., and July 28 at 7:30 p.m. in the Ellen Eccles Theatre. The production will be staged with a full cast and orchestra.

The Merry Widow is an overwhelmingly popular portrait of glam-orous fin-de-siècle Vienna. It has been translated into at least 25 languages, has been performed over a quarter of a million times, and is the most commercially successful operetta in history.

The role of Hanna will be sung by soprano Rochelle Bard, praised

by critics as an “exqui-site” singing actress.

Gabriel Preisser will sing the role of Count Danilovitsch. Praised for his power and pres-ence both as a singer and actor, Preisser has per-formed the title roles in Don Giovanni and Elmer Gantry at the Moores Opera Center in Houston.

Directing “The Merry Widow” is Daniel Helfgot, whose credits include over 200 pro-ductions of more than 100 operas, operettas and zarzuelas from the Baroque to the contem-porary.

Karen Keltner will conduct “The Merry Widow.”

Tickets are $11-$66 and can be purchased by calling 800-262-0074 or visit www.ufomt.org.

Chris Mortensen

Harpeggio Philadelphia Boys Choir

Chris Mortensen is a seasoned musician and perform-er. He is a member of the Western Music Association and the Cowboy Poets of Utah. During the past year, he has performed original western music and poetry at cow-boy gatherings in Heber City, Bear Lake, Antelope Island, and the first annual Cache Valley Cowboy Rendezvous in Hyrum. Chris has played many other solo shows, in a duo, “Saddle Serenade,” with Mary Jo Hansen, and as a bass player for the “Sagwich Basin Boys,” the

“Phat Ranchers,” the “Clamtones,” “Leaping Lulu,” and “Cuhulainn.” He has written more than 50 original songs, recorded three CDs of original music, and been featured in a YouTube video titled “Analog Cowboy,” performing a clever song written by his friend, riding partner, and frequent bandmate, Dale Major. You can hear and see Chris’ work on broadjam.com and cowboypoetry.com.

Seven harpists of the group we will call “Har-peggio” will be performing. These angels are stu-dents of Carolyn Bentley, ranging in age from mid-teens to late 20s. Brielle Nichols, Samanth Loosli, Katie Anderson, Caitlin Johnson, Katie McGregor, Christine Altom and Sasha Murray Beorchia are the plucky young ladies. They will perform in solo and in ensemble, presenting music from classical, jazz, pop and folk to Broadway and cinema. The audience will experience the exhileration of hear-ing 336 strings vibrating together in such favorites as “The Sound of Music Medley” and a surprise ensemble piece from a recent film. Here’s a hint: Aarrrrpeggio.

Renowned for their commanding musicianship, intelligence and interpretive abilities, Philadelphia Boys Choir & Chorale has cultivated a devoted follow-ing worldwide for their highly acclaimed concerts and recitals. Founded in 1968, its achievements include world tours with performances for heads of state, recordings with internationally renowned orchestras, and praise from critics and audiences worldwide. PBCC continues to break through the most rigid social, political and cultural barriers as America’s Ambassa-dor of Song. The choir was featured on “Good Morn-ing America” during the 2008 holiday season and was so well received that the boys returned on Christmas Eve 2009 for a full hour of holiday music.

Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre is pleased

to present two performances of “A Tribute to George Ger-shwin” on July 14 at 1 p.m. and July 19 at 7:30 p.m. in the Ellen Eccles Theatre. The performances will feature the Utah Festival Opera orchestra and vocalists, with Benjamin Salisbury as solo pianist.

“A Tribute to George Ger-shwin” honors the composer whose music, paired with the lyrics written by his older brother, Ira, will forever be remembered as the voice of the Jazz Age. The brothers wrote most frequently with each other, composing more than two dozen scores for Broad-way and Hollywood, including the now-classic opera Porgy and Bess, Strike Up the Band, Girl Crazy, and My One and Only.

Scheduled for “A Tribute to George Gershwin” are his most famous composition for piano and orchestra, “Rhap-sody in Blue,” performed by Cache Valley favorite, pianist Benjamin Salisbury, “Sum-mertime” from Porgy and Bess,

“Embraceable You,” “They Can’t Take that Away from Me,” “Someone to Watch Over Me,” “I Got Rhythm,” and many more hummable tunes, as well as instrumental and orchestral works such as “Three Preludes for Piano,”

“Lullaby for String Quartet,” and “Suite from An American in Paris.”

Benjamin Salisbury is a doctoral candidate in piano performance and assistant lecturer at the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music. Salisbury is proud of his Cache Valley heri-

tage, having graduated summa cum laude from Utah State University’s Caine School of the Arts. He is a protégé of the USU Youth Conservatory and former student of Professor Gary Amano. He and his wife,

violist Caroline Stoddard Salis-bury, founded the Gerona Rose Music Studio in Southern Cali-fornia, and they are the proud parents of a baby boy.

Barbara Day Turner will conduct “A Tribute to George

Gershwin.” Day Turner is founder and music director of the San José Chamber Orches-tra, where she has premiered more than 110 new works. She has also conducted close to 100 operas and musical theater productions, and is known for creative and engaging programming. Day Turner has recently conducted the Orques-ta Sinfónica de Aguascalientes, John Adams’ Nixon in China for Portland Opera, and The King and I and The Full Monty for American Musical Theatre of San José. This summer Day Turner will be conducting Don Giovanni and South Pacific for Utah Festival Opera & Musical Theatre, where she also serves as Music Administrator.

Tickets are $11-$66 and can be purchased by calling 800-262-0074 or visiting www.ufomt.org.

1 Film

Still playing

By David Germain AP Movie Writer

Movies where humans and ani-

mals converse are a bad idea in principle, and Kevin James' "Zookeep-er" is not here to prove that interspecies ensem-bles have simply been a misunderstood, underap-preciated sub-genre."Zookeeper" is as

dumb as they come, the movie that finally allows Adam Sandler to lend annoying voice to a Capuchin monkey as it talks incessantly about flinging poop around.

This is a comedy whose filmmakers know what they want — stu-pid gags and obnoxious slapstick — and goes for it without restraint.

James, who joins Sandler as one of the producers and also shares screenplay credit with four other writers, is dopily likable as the title guy able to com-mune with his critters. Yet his character and the other humans are so thinly drawn that a mel-ancholy gorilla voiced by Nick Nolte shows more personality and comes off as the movie's highest primate.

A conscientious animal tender at the Boston zoo, James' Griffin Keyes is a loser in human rela-tions, still stinging over

the way love-of-his-life Stephanie (Leslie Bibb) scorned his elaborate marriage proposal five years earlier.

After Stephanie reap-pears in his life, Griffin's old feelings return, and the lions and monkeys and bears that adore him take pity and break the code of the wild — never talk to humans.

They reveal that they're able to speak in a variety of famous Hol-lywood players' voices

— Cher, Nolte, Sylvester

Stallone, Jon Favreau, Judd Apatow. And for good measure, Sandler as the monkey seems to be aiming for a screechy impersonation of Gilbert Gottfried, in case that's something you've been dying to hear.

Fearful that their faith-

ful zookeeper might fly the coop for a cooler job to impress Stephanie, the animals coach Grif-fin in their own mating rituals to help him win her back.

So we get to see James strutting and roll-ing around like a bear,

urinating to mark his territory and otherwise behaving in ways that would make his roman-tic prey declare him a psychotic and seek a restraining order.

Yet some of Griffin's animal antics work their charms not only on Stephanie, but also, on gorgeous zoo veterinar-ian Kate (Rosario Daw-son). The filmmakers at least should have given Dawson a pair of dorky glasses to explain why Griffin somehow failed

to rut after her all these years.

Using live animals blended with computer effects, the filmmakers at least create a batch of furry creatures that should appeal to young children, who also may be the only ones able to tolerate the irritating voices of some of the beasties.

Nolte wisely just talks like himself, and his gruff rumble sounds right for Bernie the gorilla, a noble, lonely ape in solitary confine-ment because of a ruck-us with a cruel zoo ten-der (Donnie Wahlberg, who must really like being around animals, because there's not much other reason for him to take on such a pathetic little role).

A few laughs arise out of the weird friendship Griffin forges with Ber-nie, though their night out at T.G.I. Friday's drags on like a bad meal.

As he did in "Paul Blart: Mall Cop" and

"Chuck and Larry," James hurls himself into this sad scenario with energy and teddy-bear charm that makes him impossible to hate. But it's easy to hate "Zoo-keeper."

If we could talk to the animals, they'd probably hate it, too.

“Transformers: Dark of the Moon”Rated PG-13★

1⁄2 Director Michael Bay serves up another loud, long, bruising and wearisome onslaught of giant, shape-shifting robots. Bay tries to

inject more flesh-and-blood consequence this time, but the human element arises largely from archival footage involving the 1960s moon race, along with images that may disturb younger kids as screaming, scrambling

humans are vaporized by the ‘bots like insects in a bug zap-per. In 3-D, too, so you get to wear those clunky glasses for the franchise’s longest movie yet. Puny humans Shia LaBeouf, Josh Duhamel, John Turturro and Tyrese Gibson

again are caught up in the war between benevolent Autobots and evil Decepticons, joined by new cast members Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich and Patrick Dempsey. Leonard Nimoy provides the voice of

an Autobot elder, his age-old, gravelly vocals proving the most human element in the movie. The visuals are daz-zling, but Bay lets the battles grind on so long that the motion and noise turns numb-ing. 154 minutes.

By Christy LemireAP Movie Critic

“Horrible Bosses” wallows in silli-

ness — gleefully, and without an ounce of remorse or self-con-sciousness — and even though you’re a grown-up and you know you should know better, you will be happy to wallow right along, as well.

It’s a film that’s wildly, brazenly stupid — but also, you know, fun.

Because like “Bad Teacher,” another recent raunchfest, “Horrible Bosses” knows exactly what it is and doesn’t aspire to be anything more (or dare we say

“better”?), and that lack of pretention is refresh-ing. It isn’t trying to say anything profound about society or the economy or the fragile psyche of the post-modern man.

It’s about three guys who hate their jobs and want to kill their bosses. And really, who among us hasn’t pondered such a plan?

Naturally, no mem-ber of this trio is nearly as clever or sophisti-cated as he thinks he is.

Together, they bumble and bungle every step of the way and occasion-ally, by accident, they get something right. But the dynamic between Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis and Charlie Day as they bounce off each other is cheerfully loony, and the energy of their banter (which often feels improvised) has enough of an infec-tious quality to make you want to forgive the film’s general messiness. Although maybe such a sloppy approach was intentional given the subject matter.

Seth Gordon, who previously directed the inspired documentary

“The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters” (and the Vince Vaughn-Reese Witherspoon romantic comedy “Four Christmases,” which we’re going to try and overlook), introduces us to each of the horrible bosses with great style and punch off the top.

Bateman’s Nick Hen-dricks, the group’s voice of reason, has been toil-ing away under sadistic taskmaster Dave Harken (Kevin Spacey in clas-

sic shark mode) at some generically corporate-techie sweat shop. Nick keeps hoping to be rewarded with a promo-tion that never comes.

Sudeikis, as horny accountant Kurt Buck-man, actually likes his boss at the chemical company where he works (Donald Suther-

land in a cameo) — but upon the man’s death, his crazy, coke-snorting son, Bobby (Colin Far-rell), takes over with idiotic plans that surely will destroy the place.

And Day’s Dale Arbus, an engaged dental hygienist, must endure endless and increasingly explicit sexual harass-

ment from Dr. Julia Harris (Jennifer Aniston)

— which, as his friends point out, doesn’t sound so horrible. (If you’re a fan of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” you’ll be happy to see Day doing a similar brand of clueless man-child craziness.)

One night, after too many drinks, they hypo-thetically toss around the idea of knocking off their bosses. In no time this hazy notion snow-balls into an actual plan, if you can call it that —

they get some guidance from Jamie Foxx as an ex-con who suggests that each guy should kill another guy’s boss to avoid any suspicious connections. (Screen-writers Michael Mar-kowitz and John Francis Daley & Jonathan Goldstein at least have the decency to acknowl-edge that they’re steal-ing their premise from Hitchcock’s “Strangers on a Train.”)

From there, a series of misadventures and showy performances carries the film through its suitably brief running time to its vaguely satis-fying conclusion. Play-ing against type, Farrell is a cartoon character with his bad comb-over and his obsession with kung fu; his house is such a garish monstros-ity, it must have been a blast for the produc-tion designers to piece together. Spacey is in his comfort zone as a com-manding, condescending jerk; on the opposite end of the spectrum but just as over the top is Anis-ton, who seems freer than she has in a while as an aggressive vixen.

Salt Lake City-native Michael Bingham remembers quite clear-ly when he saw his first original painting: He was a 6th grader in Idaho and he cut through the

art building at Ricks College to get to the swimming pool for swim club. Paintings, drawings and water colors “opened up another world” for him.

“There was something about the magic of these thick paint strokes and the illu-sion that when you got up close to it, it just was paint,” Bingham said, describ-ing a particular painting of a house and that had been done as if the Earth was cut away. “It was a realization that art can communicate anything.”

But it wouldn’t be until he pursued studies as a student at Ricks College — now Brigham Young University-Idaho — until he realized, “hey, that could be career.” He had been studying to become an architect.

This childhood memory of walking through that art building is part of what’s behind Bingham’s first art show in the valley in more than five years, where he will have more than 40 pieces of paintings and sculptures on display at the Gallery Walk on July 8 at the Dance Illusion, 36 South Main Street.

“Most of these paintings have kind of made the rounds at the gallery and they’re kind of filling up my studio,” Bingham said. “Instead of having them fill up my studio ... I’d rather have them in some-body else’s home. Maybe .... There’s some other little kid that’s staring at one of those paintings and a whole new world is being opened to them. Kind of like it was for me.”

Part of the proceeds from the show’s silent auction will go to the dance studio,

said Bingham.Bingham primarily uses oil-based

paints and does everything from land-scapes to animals, from still-lifes to danc-ers: “I don’t know whether it’s because I have a short attention span, but I love try-ing new things.”

Bingham’s sculptures, which he pri-marily creates in his garage, are made of things that people would ordinarily think is junk. Belts, children’s toy blocks, a kitchen sink stopper are all included in a sculpture he calls, “Stairway to Heaven.”

“To me, life is sort of like a big buf-fet — there’s all these choices out there … and if I was just limited to painting one thing, it would be like only going to the buffet and only having hamburgers,” Bingham said.

Littered around his small, basement studio in North Logan is a computer, an easel, books and paintings — both of which were done by him and other artists. Bingham has used his seven children as art subjects for other artists to paint and those are some of his favorite paintings, he said.

When he’s not in the studio, Bingham teaches art classes at Mountain Crest High School, a position he’s had since 2008.

Bingham graduated from the Art Cen-ter College of Design in Pasadena, Calif. in 1988. Bingham was then recruited by Hallmark Cards Inc. in Kansas City, Mis-souri and spent 12 years there designing and painting nearly 1,000 products.

“Somebody asked me the other day if I was famous, I said, ‘yes, I’m famous, but nobody knows about me yet,’” Bingham said.

The show opens for two hours, from 6 to 8 p.m. on July 7. It is also open Friday July 8 from 5 to 9 p.m.

Gallery Walk featured artist: Russell Weekes

I always associate the word “drone” with a person’s annoying voice;

but now drones can actu-ally kill you. They are the natural progression in what has increasingly become a remote control world.

I was sitting in my truck staring at my new iPod com-pliant music center – which is a recent upgrade from the mastodon-like cassette player that came with the vehicle – when I noticed that it came with a tiny remote control unit. Since I was only sitting about 8 inches from the thing, I tried to imagine under what circumstances I would ever require the services of a remote control. I suppose a remote control aimed at the dashboard could be great fun for a van load of youths wanting to annoy their soccer moms or for slightly older youths setting the mood for a Saturday night of back seat frolicking.

Both of these uses are years behind me and they live on as sweet manufactured memories of things I never did, but I digress. I started to see the remote control as an evil little pox box and meta-phor of our times; a little incomprehensible gadget that ponderous broad-butted Americans abdicate all their tasks to.

Everything we have comes with a remote control. Not only does my truck MP3 player, but we have remote controls for the television, stereo, car locks, garage doors, porch lights, radio, and even a fan I bought not long ago. From the minute you wake till the time you return to dreamland you can do almost everything by remote control.

It used to be a shop-worn joke for us baby boomers to recall the tough times of our youth when we had to actually get up off the couch

to change the channels on a television. Now, I’m not sure if I would even know where the buttons are on the televi-sion.

Remote control is a great metaphor for our nation. We don’t actually do much of

anything first hand anymore. We are designing more and more unmanned weapons to fight our wars and people spend huge chunks of their lives in computer gener-ated virtual worlds. We have little robots rolling around Mars doing our exploration for us. Traffic cops have been replaced by stop light cameras. Large hockey-puck-shaped domestic servant robots can be bought to scur-ry around the house scrub-bing floors, sucking up dust and scaring the pets.

I can’t help but wonder if our lingering financial crisis emerged because we and the government were hop-ing everything would work by itself. When the financial sector stopped working, everyone started pointing the remote control at it; madly pressing buttons to see if they could fix it. Wait, maybe the battery in the remote control is dead. Nope, that’s not it.

Finally, having exhausted the extent of their expertise, the government decided to actually get up off the couch and try to fix it. They ran to the back of the economy to see if it was actually plugged in. “Dang, no that’s not it either. Does anybody remem-ber where we put the instruc-tion booklet?”

Like everything else, it's probably buried in that draw-er with all the rubber bands and twist ties. Stay tuned.

Dennis Hinkamp would also like to remind people that all those billions of remote con-trol units send out electronic signals that may or may not control your brain. He is among a number of freelance writers whose columns appear in The Herald Journal as part of an effort to expose readers to a variety of community voices. He is not an employee of the newspaper.

These days anything is remotely possible

Russell Weekes’ display will be at Summerfest Arts Faire, 69 E. 100 North.

“I have always been drawn to the deceptively complex nuances of even the simplest scene set by creatures in nature. The beauty to be found in the natural forms of animals provides endless pos-sibilities to render interesting shapes, shades and colors. Learning to understand the natural world and why it functions the way it does continues to fascinate me to no end. To observe the natural work and appreciated its beauty is second nature to most people. To try and capture that beauty by recreating it with a two-dimensional art for breeds a deeper understanding and appreciation.

Using photo references of the figures, my pieces are designed and composed in the same manner as my traditional oil pieces and then built up stroke by stroke with the same disciplines I would use to create a piece with traditional artistic tools. Creating the pieces com-pletely digitally allows me the efficiency of controlling every aspect of reproducing the piece either as a perfectly accurate color print or an exact duplicate resized to fit on a small computer screen such as a cell phone or a canvas the size of a billboard without losing any of the quality or the craftsmanship of the piece.”

“Roping Excuse (and you thought you’d heard them all!)”

by Dale MajorI’ve friends that have a passion, to toss a rope at horn and heeland they like to invite me, ’cause they all seem to feellike this would be good for me, help me bond with my old horse,I tell them that we get along just fine, but they don’t believe me of courseand say to be a real cowboy, you need to build a loopthen chase after the fastest steer they have there in their group.Well, I’ve given it a try, but can never get my ropeto settle over horn or heel, and I’ve about given up hopeof ever becoming a roper, and maybe a cowboy tooI’ve been to clinics and seminars, but I don’t know what to doMost make it look so easy, while for me it is so toughit’s not like telling a cowboy poem, where you can hide a bluff.Then I came across a story, that helped me understand whyI may never become a roper, no matter how hard I try.See the stories of my grandpa’s dad, a real pioneerwho went to settle the San Juan area, 1879 was the year.There was no road to follow, they had to build their own,sometimes down a ‘Hole’ in a solid face of stone.With three companions to scout with him, they came to a plateauthat today they call Grey Mesa, and there was no place else to gowith the Colorado River on one side, and the San Juan River on the otherthey couldn’t find them a way off, and it was beginning to botherthem that may have to all turn back, unless a way was found,they searched and searched but in the end they were all just turned aroundbut then a strange thing happened, gramps was alone and stopped to resta mountain goat came to check him out, and thus there came the testof my great grandpa’s roping skills, because he didn’t have a gunso he built a loop and took a throw, before that goat could runwell, he threw and missed, the goat ran off, but didn’t go very farso gramps set up to try again, and thus began a repertoireof throw and miss and move on down, the goat leading the waydown the massive slick rock surrounding the mesa they now called “Gray”when it finally dawned on him that there was a way down that face of stonethe goat got tired of their little game and ran off, leaving him alone.He returned to find his companeros in the throws of a dispute,sure they’d have to all turn back ’cause there was no way off that buttehe was out of breath when he got to camp, and they asked him where he’d beenhe told them he’d found a way down towards a canyon they now call Glen.And how the goat had led him, an answer to their prayerhe hadn’t caught them supper, but for now they didn’t care’cause they knew they could continue with what they’d been called to dothey had what one old pioneer called, some good old ‘sticky do’it still took several weeks to blast a wagon track down that gradeit was just as another segment of the roughest pioneer wagon road ever made.So now when my roping friends tease me about my poor roping abilityI tell them they story of my great grandpa, George B. Hobbs, and say, “my roping skills come genetically.”

“GREEN GRASS”by Adrian Korpel

Sitting quietly, doing nothing:Spring comesand the grass greens itself.

Zen saying

The grass greens itself?Come again?

I mean, think of the trips to the garden store,your earnest questions made light of bythe green-aproned store clerkwho severely skewers your skillswith his aerated soil prattleand his erudite pH babbling.

The people behind you in line are sniggeringas your appalling ignoranceof all matter yard-likeis revealed down to the tiny taprootof your tree of not-knowledge.

I mean what do you really know about grass,rye grass, fescue, blue grass, zoysia, bentgrasshow and what it likes, sour or sweet,salty or bitter, tangy or tacky,and how much water,how much blood meal, nitrates, phosphor,carbon, photons, molecules, Miracle-Grow.

Hard work is ahead,spreading, hoeing, edging, raking, cutting,cursing the crabgrass, the clover,the thistles, the wormy apples on the lawn,the rabbit holes, the fallen branches,the stalled lawn mower,the sweat of your brow,your grass-clogged throat,your pollen-plugged nose,your stinging sidesyour achy-breaky heart.

When Spring comes:Sit quietly, Do nothing.

By Jeff AyersFor The Associated Press

Gregg Hurwitz delivers a thrilling look at one man's

efforts to save his family from his haunted past in "You're Next."

Mike was left at a foster home when he was 4. His last memory was his father promising to return. He never did.

Flash-forward to the present: Mike has an amazing wife and a wonder-ful 8-year-old daughter. He runs a construction company that has cre-ated a "green" housing project that impresses everyone, including the mayor.

Then the threats begin, slowly at first. More annoying than dangerous, they quickly escalate. Mike reports his growing fears to the police, but they don't seem to care. The only questions they have are about the parents he doesn't remember.

To stop his increasing paranoia — and to keep his family safe — Mike is forced to ask for help from some-one he grew up with; someone who might prove as dangerous as those trying to destroy everything he holds

dear.Hurwitz takes the modern fam-

ily and quickly turns the comfort of the situation into fear and paranoia. Mike's quest to save his loved ones and find answers to the puzzle of his past proves to be irresistible.

* This week’s New York Times Best-seller List *

By Jonathan LopezFor The Associated Press

In 1997, a gang of criminals escorted Boston Herald Sunday

Editor Tom Mashberg to an undis-closed warehouse and showed him an old master oil painting.

Inspecting the painting by flash-light, Mashberg believed it to be Rembrandt’s “Christ in the Storm on the Sea of Galilee,” famously stolen, along with several other priceless pictures, from Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in 1990. Since Mashberg’s possible sighting, the missing Gardner artworks have gone back underground, and the crime remains unsolved.

Mashberg has now teamed up with the Gardner Museum’s head of secu-rity, Anthony M. Amore, to write

“Stealing Rembrandts,” a detailed look at numerous robberies target-ing works by the great Dutch master over the past century. Combining impressive shoe-leather reporting skills with solid art-world knowl-edge, this fascinating book debunks many myths about museum heists while providing vivid profiles of the criminals and their motives.

The wealthy-but-evil collector who commissions museum robber-ies to enrich his private holdings is pure Hollywood fantasy, the authors convincingly demonstrate. Most museum heists are carried out by professional criminals who wrongly imagine a Rembrandt can be fenced as easily as other stolen property.

Unlike diamonds or gold, a cel-ebrated old master painting actually has little street value. Instantly rec-

ognizable, it cannot be reintroduced into the legitimate marketplace without attracting attention and is therefore difficult for criminals to monetize.

In-depth interviews with several art thieves show that taking a Rem-brandt usually nets the robber not a financial windfall but a hostage made of paint and canvas. Ransoms can be demanded and produced, but as the authors note, most hostage situations ultimately go badly for the criminals.

Popular culture too often glam-orizes museum heists. As Amore and Mashberg show, stealing a Rembrandt seldom pays off for the thieves but makes the world at large infinitely poorer. With hard facts and a cleareyed perspective, this book sets the record straight.

Why stealing a Rembrandt seldom pays off

‘You’re Next’ is chilling
