County toconsider tax hikes and 2019 budgetTIM GILLIESTAFF WRITER

The Tooele County Commission has already announced the $18.55 mil-lion sales price for Utah Motorsports Campus.

However, the 2019 tenta-tive budget unveiled last week reveals a $10.35 million cost for legal expenses and closing costs associated with the race-track’s sale.

The $10.35 million also includes reimbursement for operating losses, capital pur-chases, and a management fee accrued over the last three years while the buyer, Mitime Utah Investment, has been

running the track on behalf of the county.

The county is obligated by its management agreement with Mitime to pay those costs once the sale is closed.

The county commission will adopt the 2019 tentative county budget during its regu-lar meeting on Tuesday night at the Tooele County Building. The county commission will also hold a public hearing on four proposed property tax increases during the meeting.

With a sales price of $18.55 million and $10.35 million in expenses for the UMC sale, the

School boardwarms up to solar project

TIM GILLIESTAFF WRITER

In October the Tooele County School Board said it wasn’t interested in giving up property tax revenue to partici-pate in tax incentive financing for new businesses, but last week the school board told representatives of a solar ener-gy company that it is interested in a tax incentive agreement for a solar project in Tooele County.

ENYO Renewable Energy, a Delaware-based company with offices in Sandy, Utah, has proposed two large-scale solar

energy system projects for western Tooele County.

The Tooele County Commission has proposed creating two community rein-vestment areas for the ENYO projects.

Community reinvestment areas are the latest public tax increment financing tool authorized in 2016 by the state Legislature. They replace rede-velopment project areas. CRAs use real and personal property tax generated by growth from within a project area to finance

The Grantsville company that created reflectors to keep birds safe from power lines has now done the same for heli-copters.

FireFly Diverters, LLC, owned by Tim Chervick, cre-ated reflective avian diverters that are attached to power lines to prevent collisions. A similar principal went into diverters that protect helicopters landing in difficult conditions.

Chervick, a Pennsylvania native, received a bachelor’s degree in wildlife manage-ment from the University of Wyoming in 1973.

On Nov. 7, some of the heli-copter diverters were installed on power lines and the landing pad for the University of Utah AirMed helicopter based at 1250 North in Tooele. Rocky Mountain Power installed the diverters on the power lines and all of the diverters, about 20 of them, were donated by Chervick.

“We want to make things safer for our first responders,” Chervick said.

Diverters were also placed around the fence on the 1250 North AirMed landing zone, which are free hanging and can spin. Like the FireFly diverters used to deter bird collisions, the helicopter diverters are reflective and glow at night, for enhanced visibility.

The diverters are reflective from all angles during the day but are also illuminated at night by night vision used by medical helicopters, Chervick said. The traditional orange marker balls on power lines can alert pilots during the day, but

are less useful at night. When helicopters collide

with power lines, the results can be deadly. On Oct. 30, a helicopter in Beekmantown, New York, collided with power lines and caught fire, crashing and killing the pilot and a pas-senger, according to a National Traffic Safety Board report.

Chervick said he intends to pitch the diverters to the Army National Guard next, as they can be used at static loca-tions or landing zones on the ground. The ground diverters are removable and can be set up to create remote landing zones. [email protected]

Local cops ready to take your order at annual charity fundraiserSTEVE HOWESTAFF WRITER

It’s a time for generosity and being thankful, and Tooele County law enforcement agen-cies are doing their part to give back.

An annual tradition, the Tip a Cop fundraisers are set for Dec. 4 at Casa Del Ray in Grantsville and Dec. 6 at Jim’s Restaurant in Tooele, both events running from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m.

The Tip a Cop program recruits law enforcement officers to become waiters for an evening, and tips from the night of their service are donated to purchase toys and other gifts for needy children in the area.

Tip a Cop is the primary fundraising event for the Shop With a Cop program, which pairs officers with families

in need to buy essentials and presents during the holidays.

While law enforcement offi-cers from around the county will participate in the fund-raiser, the majority of Tooele City officers will be at Jim’s Restaurant and the Grantsville City police will be at Casa Del Ray, according to Grantsville City Police Sgt. Lydon Allred.

“I think Tip a Cop is a great opportunity for our … officers to participate in a fundraising event,” Allred said.

It’s also an opportunity for officers to have positive inter-actions with the community and “earn” a donation by work-ing as servers, Allred said.

This year, several Grantsville City police officers will join the Park City Police Department to assist with their Shop With a Cop program, Allred said. The event, held on Dec. 1, is similar

to the Tooele County edition, but Park City police need addi-tional officers.

Tooele County’s Shop With a Cop is scheduled for Dec. 15, beginning at the Country Pride restaurant in Lake Point with a visit from Santa, who arrives by University of Utah medical helicopter. From there, a con-voy of police vehicles will make its way to Walmart in Tooele where gifts are purchased and wrapped for the holiday.

First, however, come the fundraising efforts and Tooele County’s law enforcement agencies are extending an opportunity for anyone who can contribute.

“We hope the public comes out to eat good food and to support a good cause,” said Tooele City Police Sgt. Jeremy Hansen. [email protected]

Wildfire near Delle burns 100 acresSTEVE HOWESTAFF WRITER

A wildfire reported Sunday afternoon on the west face of the Cedar Mountains near Delle burned 100 acres, according to the North Tooele Fire District.

Firefighters were dispatched on a report of an outside fire in the remote area of Tooele County, North Tooele Fire District Chief Randy Willden said. When crews arrived on scene, the fire was burning in steep, rocky terrain on the mountainside.

In addition to the difficulty of the terrain, firefighters had to contend with sandy soil, according to Willden. A truck responding to the fire became stuck and had to be pulled out by a specialty tow truck, Willden said.

Despite the adverse condi-tions, the fire was reported out around 9:30 p.m., after it grew to around 100 acres, Willden said. The blaze headed toward communication towers on the mountain tops but crews

were able to get behind it and a timely change in wind direc-tion meant they were never threatened, he said.

Willden and three fire trucks from NTFD responded to the fire, as well as one fire truck from Grantsville Volunteer Fire Department and a federal Bureau of Land Management crew.

The cause of the fire has not been officially determined, as it was put out after dark, Willden said. The area where the fire started is remote but is a popular spot for target shoot-ing and the investigation will continue today.

The BLM crew will also review the burned area to search for any hot spots or reignition of the fire today.

Willden said it was unusual for there to be a wildfire of this size this late in the year, espe-cially after recent precipitation in the county. He said the fire illustrates how dry conditions are in the state with the recent drought conditions. [email protected]

Call for donations and nominations for annual benefit fund

The 41st annual Tooele Transcript Bulletin Christmas Benefit Fund is now accepting nominations and donations.

Each nomination should include a description of the person’s or family’s challenges, as well as an explanation as to how the benefit fund could help them this Christmas.

Last year’s benefit fund helped Randy Rasmussen of Tooele and his children Christian, Tatyanna and Justice with their medical and finan-cial challenges.

Randy’s story and the hard-ships he and his family faced

inspired readers to donate more than $800 and more than $5,200 in total donations to help the Rasmussen family last Christmas.

Donations and nominations for this year’s benefit fund can be mailed to: Transcript Bulletin Christmas Benefit Fund, P.O. Box 390, Tooele, Utah, 84074. They can also be dropped off at the Transcript Bulletin’s front office at 58 N. Main Street next to City Hall.

Nominations can also be emailed to [email protected] or to the editor at [email protected].

TUESDAY November 20, 2018 A3TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

TIM GILLIESTAFF WRITER

While the start of the holiday shopping season has expanded over the years, retail consultants expect Black Friday will retain its crown as the busiest holiday shopping day. This is true despite com-petition from pre-Black Friday sales, Thanksgiving Day shop-ping, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday.

“Our historical analysis indi-cates that Black Friday is again and has been the biggest shop-per traffic day of the year, and each Saturday in December gets progressively busier as you approach Christmas Day,” said Brian Field, senior director of retail consulting practice at ShopperTrak.

“The Thanksgiving Day weekend — including Black Friday as the busiest day, and the Saturday after Thanksgiving, Nov. 24 as the fifth busiest day — will be a crucial span of days for retail-ers as they approach the holi-day season,” Field said.

ShopperTrak Analytics is a national firm that advises retail businesses and shopping centers.

The National Retail Federation is also expecting a busy Black Friday. A total of 71 percent of consumers surveyed for the NRF said they will shop on Black Friday. Small Business Saturday will attract 41 percent of consumers sur-veyed, with 78 percent of those said they will shop on the Saturday after Thanksgiving specifically to support local small businesses.

Cyber Monday will see 46 percent of consumers making purchases online, according to the survey.

Only 21 percent of those surveyed reported that they plan to shop on Thanksgiving Day.

Prosper Insights & Analytics, which conducted the sur-vey for the National Retail Federation, said they are see-

ing a different attitude towards Thanksgiving weekend shop-ping in younger consumers.

“While the long weekend always draws shoppers of all ages to take advantage of the irresistible deals and promo-tions that retailers are offering, we’re seeing a change in how the younger consumers see the weekend,” said Phil Rist, Prosper Insights executive vice president. “Compared to older generations, younger consum-ers under the age of 35 are more likely to be attracted by the social aspects of shopping over the weekend or by the fact that it is a family tradition.”

Online shopping venues and department stores should see the same amount of shoppers over the holidays with an equal amount — 55 percent — of consumers in the National Retail Federation survey reporting that they will shop in both places.

Even with online shopping, retails will see shoppers in their stores, because 50 per-cent of online shoppers said they plan to pick up their pur-chases in the store.

“Whether it’s heading to the stores after finishing their turkey or going online on Cyber Monday, consumers

will be shopping all weekend and retailers will be ready to meet the demand,” said Matthew Shay, National Retail Federation president and CEO. “Retail is a vibrant, dynamic and competitive industry, but one thing is certain — consum-ers are the winners no matter which day or which way they shop.”

Consumers also reported in the National Retail Federation survey that they expect to spend 4.1 percent more in 2018 than they did in 2017 on holiday shopping.

“The holidays are just around the corner and con-sumers are ready to shop,” Shay said. “Confidence is near an all-time high, unemploy-ment is the lowest we’ve seen in decades and take-home wages are up. All of that is reflected in consumers’ buying plans. Retailers expect strong demand this year, and are prepared with a wide array of merchandise while offering strong deals and promotions during the busiest and most competitive shopping season of the year.”

Locally holiday shopping has increased. Retail sales in Tooele County during the months of November and December jumped from $61.6 million in 2016 to 68.8 mil-lion in 2017, a 13.3 percent increase, according to data from the Utah State Tax [email protected]

‘A Yuletide Feast’ set for Dec. 6-9 at Grantsville’s Celebration HallMARK WATSONCORRESPONDENT

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! A royal feast with jugglers, jokers, singers, musicians and more is prepared for the public at Celebration Hall in Grantsville on Dec. 6-9 at 7 p.m.

Celebration Hall owner Pamela Dale said her hall will be transformed into an 18th-century England manor on those nights for a “A Yuletide Feast.”

“This is not a play or an opera. It’s more like a Christmas pageant with the audience as guests at a Christmas party,” Dale said. “There will be some acting, and familiar Christmas carols will be sung.”

The Lord of the Manor played by Jaden Saari will nar-rate the production.

Guests will start the eve-ning sipping wassail (apple

cider) and then dine on baron of beef (pot roast) and other tasty items. The event will be catered by Ultimate Catering of Tooele.

The Pioneer Valley Chamber Ensemble will perform old carols, a brass ensemble will herald the visitors (audience), and the jester, played by Elliott Morris of Stansbury Park, will provide comic relief,” Dale said.

“While people are eating, strolling magicians will treat the visitors to their various tal-ents,” Dale said. “It should be a jolly event, the first of its kind in Tooele County and the Salt Lake area.”

She said the pageant will be based on the model of the “The Bracebridge Dinner at Yosemite” where she sang 20 years ago. World famous pho-tographer Ansel Adams direct-ed the event, which is still held

during the Christmas season at the Majestic Yosemite Hotel in Yosemite National Park in California’s Sierra Nevada.

Main directors for the pro-duction include Dale, Betta Nash, and Jenean Christensen.

Performers are Saari, Morris, Tom Stam, Ryon Hinckley, Stephen Hales, Elizabeth Hale, Emily Winters, Joél Delgadillo, Heidi Robinson, Nancy DeMello, Barbara Wallace, Christie Steadman, and Russ Evans.

Tickets are $25 each and can be purchased by calling Dale at 435-884-5590 or tex-ting to 801-205-8975. Tickets also can be purchased at event-brite.com. Caterers need a firm count by Nov. 29.

“Never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by stupidity.”

I’d planned to spend the day beg-ging editors for the hundreds of dollars it would cost for a ticket to

see political rock star Michelle Obama launch her book (and presidential campaign) with Oprah Winfrey, and then join the rest of the media in pro-Michelle hysteria.

I’d also planned to imagine Hillary Clinton, alone in her afternoon kitchen, reaching for another box of cheap chardonnay, muttering bit-terly: “Michelle thinks she’s Beyonce? (Bleep) that. I’m the boss ... Who’s the boss who’s the boss who’s the boss?”

But then Johnny Rocco had to butt in and ruin things.

With angry charges of voter fraud and racism and incompetence in the botched Florida recounts of close races for governor and the U.S. Senate, it’s time to consult Johnny Rocco.

He’s a political expert, see? With roots along the Chicago Way but wise in the way of Florida vote recounts too, see?

“I take a nobody, see? Teach ‘em what to say, get his name in the papers,” Rocco says while getting a straight razor shave down in Key Largo. “Yeah, pay for his campaign expenses. Dish out a lot of groceries, and coal, get my boys to bring the vot-ers out, and then count the votes over and over until they added up right and he was elected ... yeah.”

Yeah, Johnny. Yeah.Rocco was loosely based on a

Chicago gangster named Al. Yeah, that Al. It was long ago, hence Rocco’s

references to coal and “the papers.” Edward G. Robinson, with his never-ending use of “see?” played Johnny Rocco in the old movie “Key Largo,” with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall.

But in Florida last week, just as it was 18 years ago with hanging chads and Chicago’s Bill Daley try-ing to stiffen Al Gore’s limp spine, it’s Johnny Rocco time.

Why?Because thousands of Democratic

votes were miraculously found in Florida’s heavily Democratic Broward County after polls were closed on Election Day.

The Republican candidate for Senate, Florida Gov. Rick Scott, had the votes to declare victory. On Tuesday night. And Republican Ron DeSantis, the candidate for governor, had the votes to win. On Tuesday night.

But after election day, and with those thousands of votes coming in, things changed.

And Brenda Snipes, the Broward election supervisor with a sodden his-tory of incompetence and repeated violation of election law, was at it again.

Ballots were found in abandoned boxes and other mysterious places.

And ballots that were supposed to be kept separate from other ballots were mysteriously mixed together. Election deadlines for reporting votes were ignored. And those who criticized Snipes for her incompetence were branded, of course, as racists.

Is it fraud, as President Donald Trump and other Republicans say? Members of the Democratic Media Complex that loathes Trump insist there is “no evidence” of fraud, but that smacks of political complicity.

I suppose that “no evidence” means there are no videos of Florida Democrats trading extra Jell-O to seniors for Democratic votes.

Snipes didn’t know or wouldn’t say how many ballots she had when polls closed. Sixty-five other election supervisors in Florida were able to complete their tasks on time.

“Saying her office ‘was not as slow as last year,’ offers little consolation,” said the Fort Lauderdale-based Sun Sentinel in an editorial calling for Snipe’s ouster.

And those mysteriously discov-ered boxes of ballots and all the rest? Those don’t appear to be political sins of commission as much as they’re political sins of omission. Mistakes happen, see?

Johnny Rocco would tell you as much, after giving you a good slap in the mouth. What do you need, a road map?

Is it just simple stupid racism that drives the criticism of Snipes? The

OUR VIEW

Tooele County voters may be asked next year to dig deeper into their wallets for the sake of keeping public education in step with Tooele Valley’s residential growth.

As reported in last Thursday’s edition, the Tooele County School District may ask voters next November to support a $150-190 million bond for building three new schools that have been anticipated by the district for years.

The schools include a new high school in Tooele, a new junior high school in Stansbury Park, and a new elementary school in Grantsville. The new high school is to be built west of Home Depot near Overlake in Tooele, and the new junior high south of Stansbury High School and Bates Canyon Road.

The location for the new elementary school in Grantsville has yet to be decided or publicly announced by the school district.

Properties for both the high school and junior high school were bought by the school district with funds from a $49 million bond local voters approved by a 55 percent margin in 2015. The majority of the funds were used to build Old Mill and Sterling Elementary schools, increase the capaci-ty of Tooele Junior High, and pay for miscellaneous projects at Tooele High, Grantsville High, and Grantsville Junior High schools.

Also reported last Thursday, the school district is looking to build new schools in Vernon and Ibapah to replace dated facilities there. But money for those two schools will be paid for with funds from the school district’s current capital projects fund.

At last week’s school board meeting, school district superintendent Scott Rogers said the district needs the new schools because of continued growth and crowded schools.

According to school district data, the proof of that need is in the num-bers. As of Oct. 1, student enrollment at Stansbury High School was at 142 percent of the school’s ideal capacity. On that same date, Tooele High School was at 137 percent, Tooele Junior High School was at 133 percent and Clarke Johnsen Junior High School was at 100 percent.

At last week’s school board meeting, Rogers said the district needs to know the cost and what the schools will look like so “our patrons will know what they are paying for” before advertising for the bond. That is being done. The school board’s action last week included approving architectural service fees for the design of the new high school and junior high school, and a request for interest and qualifications for designing the new elemen-tary school.

But there’s something more we hope the school district will do before and while pursuing the bond. As with past bond propositions, the school district has made strong efforts, through meetings and other means, to well inform citizens about the purpose of a bond and what it will cost to repay it.

It’s still early in the process and the bond’s actual amount hasn’t been set. Yet, due to the high cost of this new proposed bond, a transparent informa-tion process must be done again. Voters will need to know all of the pros and cons before marking a ballot next November.

Midterm losses typically humble a sitting president of the United States, but

Donald Trump is beyond humbling.He is the most unbowed

president ever to lose a house of Congress. Anyone who thought Trump would be taken down a notch, even by a more stinging electoral rebuke, doesn’t know the man. He will remain the ringmas-ter of American politics until the day, presumably in January 2021 or 2025, when he gets on Marine One for the last time.

He made the midterms about him, because, really, what else would he make them about? Trump will never lose his interest in air-time, or the ratings. He boasted at a rally that, thanks to him, interest in the midterms was running high-er than ever. And he was right.

Even if Democrats had a larger victory, on the scale of the Republican sweep in 1994, it would be impossible to imagine Trump getting upstaged.

His 90-minute post-election Q&A in the East Room of the White House was expansive, combative, boastful, gripping, outlandish, conciliatory, amusing — and unlike any postelection news conference we’ve ever seen (even without Trump mentioning, by the by, that he was firing his attorney general).

The press loved every minute of it, practically begging him to keep going. The perverse symbiotic relationship between Trump and the media, so key to the success of both, is alive and well.

According to Trump, the elec-tion wasn’t a “thumpin’” or “shel-lacking” — George W. Bush’s and Barack Obama’s words for their own setbacks — it was a personal victory that had been blighted by some Republicans not sufficiently embracing him. He proceeded to mock by name fellow Republicans who had lost, in another presiden-tial first.

Trump has legitimate bragging rights: The Republican showing in the Senate was strong. His politi-

cal base is still there for him, and in many key statewide races, there for the candidate he endorsed and stumped for. His rallies are still a hot ticket. He now has a cadre of allies, like newly elected Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, whom he basi-cally created.

Alienating traditional Republican voters in the suburbs, of course, comes with a real cost. For one thing, it hands Democrats a constituency spread throughout the country, as demonstrated by the GOP carnage in widely dis-persed House races.

But, for Trump’s purposes, the GOP’s strength in Florida, Ohio and Iowa suggests that, all things being equal, key pieces of his 2016 electoral map are still ripe for the picking in 2020.

Losing the House is a blow, not so much because it stalls Trump’s congressional agenda (there wasn’t going to be much of one), but because he now has an adversary with subpoena power.

Investigative conflict looms. The subject matter will be most unwelcome to Trump, including his tax returns and his businesses. The fight won’t be. It will be high-stakes combat of the sort that he thrives on, the more intense, perilous and dramatic, the better. Because he will be at the center of it.

Trump’s genius at keeping our interest is undimmed, whether we are appalled, energized or enter-tained. He’s so far avoided a fate worse than electoral setbacks — getting tuned out.

Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress love to demonize government handouts. But

their own red-state supporters depend on these handouts. And the hand-outs are increasingly financed by the inhabitants of blue states.

The federal program Temporary Assistance for Needy Families — what we used to call “welfare” — is now tiny. It provides cash assistance to less than 1 percent of Americans.

But the Trump administration is proposing to lump many other social programs under a new agency with the word “welfare” in its title, in order to make Americans think we’re living in a vast welfare state.

A recent White House report on imposing work requirements, for example, lumps Medicaid, food assis-tance and housing aid into a rebrand-ed program called “noncash welfare.”

But defined this broadly, a large chunk of America relies on welfare — including a lot of people who wouldn’t like to think of themselves as being on the dole.

Add in disability benefits, unem-ployment insurance and medical ben-efits, and such rebranded “welfare” amounts to fully 17 percent of the average American’s income.

The term “welfare” is especially unpopular in red states that vote Republican and support Trump. But when you think broadly about all forms of government assistance, these

same red states are often the biggest beneficiaries.

If you include price supports for agriculture, subsidies for land man-agement and forestry, and federal money flowing to defense contractors, you’ll find that the economies of red states depend heavily on federal dol-lars.

But that’s not even the biggest irony. It turns out residents of blue states send more tax money to Washington than they get back in fed-eral help, while residents of red states send less money to Washington than they get back in federal help.

In 2015, for example, New Jersey got back only 74 cents in federal spending for every tax dollar its inhab-itants sent to Washington, accord-ing to the Rockefeller Institute of Government. New York got back 81 cents on the dollar, Connecticut 82 cents and Massachusetts 83 cents.

But when you turn to the red states, it’s the opposite. Mississippi received $2.13 for every tax dollar that its inhabitants sent to Washington. West Virginia received $2.07, Kentucky: $1.90 and South Carolina $1.71.

Taking the Trump administration’s

expansive view of the meaning of “welfare” to its logical conclusion to include all those benefiting from fed-eral spending, this means blue states are sending welfare to red states — the same red states that say they don’t like welfare.

Under the new tax law enacted by Trump and the Republicans, blue states will be giving even more “wel-fare” to red states.

That’s because the law sets new limits for the amount of state and local taxes that people can deduct from their federal taxable incomes.

TUESDAY November 20, 2018 A5TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Reagan Graham rolled into the west Lincoln warehouse in a wheelchair, but soon she was cruising in style.

The 2-year-old wheeled around in her new blue Ford, the gathered crowd making room for her, music on her car stereo, a smile on her face.

And on her mother’s.

“It means a lot to me for her to have this,” said Jordan Graham. “And to have a more normal life than being con-fined to just a few areas.”

Her daughter was one of three children with special needs who were presented with their own wheels on Nov. 2, the result of a recent partnership between Madonna

Research Institute and Rolling Hills Trading Inc.

The electric cars — higher-grade versions of the Power Wheels found at Target and Walmart — were modified by University of Nebraska-Lincoln engineering students to meet each child’s specific needs, giv-ing the young drivers a more open road than they’re used

to, the Lincoln Journal Star reported.

“It gives her a lot more mobility, to go to the park and play more, or to go to the back-yard and play with her sisters,” Graham said.

The presentation was the result of two weeks of work between Madonna and Rolling Hills, though each had already been modifying cars on their own.

Rolling Hills is a Lincoln-based online retailer, selling party tents and a line of elec-tric children’s cars. Last year, owners Rick and Dawn Sebek heard from a Utah customer who was modifying the com-pany’s cars for kids with special needs.

The couple did some research, learned about Go Baby Go — a national effort to match kids with modified cars — and launched their own nonprofit in February. Their SMILE foundation worked with a physical therapist to modify a half-dozen cars in Lincoln, and it donated more models to the program in Utah.

“When you learn about this, it’s hard to stop giving,” Rick Sebek said.

They reached out to Madonna earlier this fall.

Chase Pfeifer, Madonna’s assistant research director, had already adapted three cars. The kids there loved the results, but the work was difficult and costly. Cars for kids with special needs require remote controls — so parents can take the wheel when necessary — and the cars Pfeifer was buy-ing from big-box stores didn’t have them. That required more modification.

But the cars from Rolling Hills already came equipped with remote controls. “This is going to make it a lot easier,” Pfeifer said. “This seemed like the perfect fit for us.”

Two weeks ago, Madonna therapists selected three of their pediatric outpatient cli-ents — a pair of 2-year-olds and a 5-year-old. They were measured, their needs were assessed, and eight of Pfeifer’s university students got to work.

They spent about four hours

on each car, adding a pushbut-ton accelerator on the steering wheel, and five-point harnesses to keep the kids in their seats, disabling the gas pedal, getting the right fit.

For 5-year-old Payton Raasch, who has cerebral palsy and limited neck strength, the student volunteers used PVC pipe and a 3-D printer to build a head support.

“He likes to be on the go,” said his father, Justin Raasch. “This will be a nice option around the house.”

Depending on the model and the modifications needed, the cars each cost between $300 and $500, and the three donated earlier this month were sponsored by Midwest Bank.

But therapists measured three more children, and they’ll need donations for those — and for all of the other cars they want to match with young drivers in need.

“We would love nothing more than to give away as many cars as we can,” Rick Sebek said.

race card is the Democratic left’s default position, always.

MSNBC’s lefty cheerleader Joy Reid — who makes CNN buffoon Jim Acosta sound somewhat reasonable — proved this by playing the race card clumsily but with gusto.

“Here is the way they are treating Brenda Snipes, who is the longtime election supervi-sor there, who by the way is an older black woman in the Deep South,” said Reid.

Ah, older black woman, Deep South. I see where you’re going, Joy, except that racially diverse and heavily Democratic Broward County isn’t exactly

the “Deep South” of your wish-ful knee-jerk mythology.

Snipes also piped up, and angrily too, bothered as she was by increasing calls for her resignation.

“It’s sort of hard to rule out race, but I won’t say, ‘Oh, I’m a black woman and that’s why.’ I’m not saying that,” Snipes said.

Oh, you’re not saying that? Well, it sure seems like you’re saying exactly that, see?

People without wits reflex-ively reach for the race card, even when it doesn’t apply, because it has worked time and again. Perhaps it’s time to stop.

Broward County is “not just the most troubled elections office in the state, it’s the most troubled elections office in the nation,” Florida Republican

Sen. Marco Rubio told Politico.com.

Broward County’s history of election incompetence and fail-ure is well-known, from missed election deadlines and shoddy reporting to ballots destroyed when the law mandates they should have been saved.

Democrats are being accused, but Republicans bear the burden here too, since former Gov. Jeb Bush, a Republican, appointed Snipes. And she was kept on by Scott, even after she repeatedly proved her incompetence.

Johnny Rocco is smiling.See?

John Kass is a columnist for the Chicago Tribune. His Twitter handle is @john_kass.

And since people in blue states pay much more in state and local taxes than people in red states, blue-staters will be pay-ing that much more in federal taxes.

Which means an even bigger transfer going from blue-state residents to all those red-state Republican voters whose party despises handouts.

I want to be quick to add that most of us here in blue states don’t mind giving red states a bigger helping hand.

Truth be told, the vast majority of Americans also oppose cuts to programs that

aid the poor, elderly and sick. Because most Americans figure we’re all in this together, we believe those of us who can do so ought to help out those in need.

We don’t regard the help as welfare handouts. We call it social insurance.

In fact, social insurance is needed and used by almost all of us. That’s why Social Security, Medicare and unem-ployment insurance are so pop-ular. Even though the money to finance them comes mostly from taxpayers who aren’t cur-rently dependent on these pro-grams, we don’t begrudge their recipients because we assume that most of us will need these programs someday.

It turns out that even pro-

grams relied upon mostly by the poor end up helping a large portion of us, because roughly one-third of all Americans are poor at some point in their lives and therefore dependent on these programs.

So when the Trump admin-istration attacks so-called “wel-fare,” it’s really attacking the things most of us need. And it’s artificially dividing the country into “us” and “them.”

In reality, voters in red states are as dependent on the federal government as voters in blue states. Truth be told, even more dependent.

Robert Reich’s latest book is “The Common Good,” and his newest documentary is “Saving Capitalism.”

So many Bibles around, but do you know what it actually teaches?When you were little

did any of your sib-lings or your friends

ever tell you that “Mom said we could do this…” or “Yeah, my dad said we could use that…?” I remember a good friend of mine who we went out cruising with. It was fun — until we got busted because his mother didn’t actually say he could use her car. In fact, she had really told him she would call the police if he ever did. To his surprise that’s exactly what she did.

Most of the time we would be a whole lot better off if we would check to see if “so-n-so” actually said whatever it is

they reportedly said.But let’s not just point to

children regarding such things. Most of you who have worked for companies for any length of time have probably heard similar things. “Oh, sure, that’s the way the boss wants it done. Plus it is much easier that way.” “Oh yeah, it’s OK if we take an extra 30 minutes for lunch. No big deal.” It seems to be Murphy’s Law that the boss

doesn’t catch the guy who told you that; it seems he usually catches you.

As I said before, most of the time you would be a whole lot better off if you would check to see if “so-n-so” actually said whatever it is they reportedly said. I wonder why we don’t check? Usually it’s because we don’t want to look like the odd man out. We want to fit in. Plus, we usually like the direction the supposed saying allows us to go, so we simply choose to believe it.

It’s not just things that your mom or your boss supposedly said that people make up. We also hear a lot of things in our culture about what God says in the Bible. People say that God says we can do this, or that we can’t do that. They say that God says this about who we are, or they say what God will or won’t do for you.

Be warned! You need to check these things out for yourself. What God said or didn’t say can have a far great-er impact on you and your eternal existence than your mother grounding you for two weeks because of something stupid you did when you were 14.

Lately at our church, we have been talking about what many people claim the Bible says, but that in fact it doesn’t say. Such things as, “God won’t give you more than you can handle.”

“Since we are saved by grace we can do what we want.”

“We are all God’s children.” “God wants you to be happy.”

“Money is the root of all evil.” Or “God helps those who help themselves.”

Do these things sound famil-iar? They should, as you likely have heard them more times than you can count. But are they really what God teaches in the Bible?

For example, the Bible makes it clear you can’t handle anything in a godly way on your own, but that you can handle all things through the Lord who strengthens you! The Bible is very clear that even though you are saved by grace, God nonetheless expects you to obey Him. That’s why Jesus

asked, “Why do you call me Lord, but don’t do what I say?”

Our society promotes, and many “popular” preachers teach, that God wants you to be happy. But God’s Word teaches us that He wants you to be blessed. Certainly some-times in life we are happy, but many circumstances can dispel our happiness. But even in the midst of tragedies you can be blessed of the Lord, and be filled with His comfort and joy.

The Bible is the Word of God that tells us what He wants for us, what He requires of us, and how He wants us to treat others. Deuteronomy 32:47 says that God’s Word is life to us. The Bible is a lamp unto your feet that helps you to see where you are, and a light for your path so that you can see what is ahead of you. This way you can keep from stumbling, or from being fooled by the world when you are told things that God didn’t really say that can actually be to your detri-ment.

The other day I was talking with some people about the Holy Spirit reminding us of things God has said. But I had to point out to them that the Holy Spirit doesn’t “remind you” of something you didn’t already know; He reminds you of something you learned in the Bible that is useful at the time He reminds you.

If you want to do those things that God calls you to do, or avoid the things God warns you about, you need to read His Word for yourself. Spend time in the Bible each day. It is just as important as the food you eat. That is why Jesus said, “Man does not live on bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”

It is foolish to be surrounded by so many Bibles but not know what it actually teaches. It is wisdom to read the Bible, understand it with God’s help, and apply it to your life. That is like the person who builds their house on a foundation of rock, and not on sand.

Utah brewers subject to new step in path to selling beer

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Utah brewers will have to specially test lower alcohol beer before it can go on the shelves of grocery and convenience stores, adding another hurdle to a list of the state’s tight liquor regulators.

The Salt Lake Tribune reports the state is mandating that lower alcohol beer must be tested to ensure it isn’t exceeding a threshold of 4 percent alcohol by volume.

The testing must be done in a state laboratory before the new beer that is 3.2 percent alcohol by weight hits stores.

“It’s not really an inconve-nience for the brewers to send a sample,” said Nicole Dicou, executive director of the Utah Brewers Guild, “but it is another hoop to jump through.”

Dicou said the guild was under the impression that this sort of testing was part of a national push toward standard-ization.

Paul Gatza, director of the Boulder, Colorado-based nation-al Brewers Association, said he doesn’t know of any other state where beverage regulators require testing of certain beers.

“This is something that would not fly in many states, as it puts an undue burden on the small-est breweries that have the least amount of sales,” he said.

It could also discourage small-er brewers from making special test batches of beer, he added.

The state Department of Alcohol Beverage Control used to send samples to an out-of-state lab. It now is in a joint agree-ment with the state Department of Agriculture and Food, which has on-site labs.

“Now we are doing our due diligence,” he said. “We want to make sure that anything we list, the alcohol content, is cor-rect per the labeling,” said Cade Meier, department deputy direc-tor.

county is looking at $8.2 mil-lion in net gain from the sale in 2019.

That $8.2 million may be used to cover several capital projects included in the 2019 tentative budget.

The tentative budget includes a $9.4 million trans-fer to the capital projects fund from the general fund in 2019. That’s $7.4 million more than what was transferred to capital projects from the general fund in 2018.

The municipal services fund will transfer another $2.2 million to the capital project funds, according to the 2019 tentative budget.

The 2019 capital project budget swells from $2.4 mil-lion in 2018 to $12 million in 2019, according to the tenta-tive budget.

Major projects in the 2019 capital projects bud-get include: $5 million for a Midvalley sewer trunk, $2 million for a new road that runs from Droubay to state Route 36 south of Cimmarron Way, $1.5 million for Pole Canyon Road, $750,000 for Stansbury Parkway, $525,000 for a Deseret Peak Complex water reuse project, $500,000 for Midvalley Highway envi-ronmental, and $200,000 for Village Boulevard East.

The proposed property tax increases for 2019 include a 5 percent increase each for the county general fund levy, the health department fund levy, and the municipal services fund levy. The county commis-sion is also proposing a 10 per-cent increase in the county’s

assessing and collecting levy, which is used to recoup the cost of assessing and collecting property tax.

The proposed increase in the county general operations levy would mean a $10.85 annual increase in property tax for the owner of the aver-age $240,000 home in Tooele County. The annual property tax increase for a business of the same value would be $19.73.

The proposed increase in

the county health department levy would also mean a $10.85 annual increase in property tax for the owner of the aver-age $240,000 home in Tooele County. The annual property tax increase for a business of the same value would also be $19.73, according to the public notice published by the county.

The 10 percent proposed increase in the county’s assess-ing and collecting levy would mean a $5.68 annual increase

in property tax for the owner of the average $240,000 home in Tooele County or an annual increase of $10.32 for a busi-ness of the same value.

Combined together, the proposed increases would add $27.38 to the annual prop-erty tax bill of a $240,000 homeowner. The owner of a business with the same value would pay a total of an addi-tional $49.78 in property tax to the county.

For property owners in unincorporated Tooele County, the county commission is pro-posing a 5 percent increase in the municipal type services fund levy. The municipal type services fund levy is only assessed on property in unin-corporated Tooele County. It is in addition to the property taxes for general operations, health department, and assess-ing and collecting.

The proposed 5 percent increase in the county’s munic-ipal type services fund levy would mean that the owner of the average $240,000 home would pay an additional $7.54 annually in property tax. The owner of a business with the same value would pay $13.71 in additional property tax each year.

If adopted, the proposed property tax increases would take effect in 2019.

The county commission won’t adopt the actual proper-ty tax increases for 2019 until later in the year, usually in July or August. This allows the county commission to use the 2019 property tax values and total taxable value of property in the county to adopt the tax rate necessary to produce the amount of revenue needed for the 2019 budget.

State law requires a pub-

lic hearing on proposed tax increases be held before the 2019 budget is adopted. The final adopted property tax rate can’t be higher than the pro-posed increase.

There is no public hearing scheduled for the 2019 tenta-tive budget. However, during Tuesday night’s meeting, the county commission will set the date, time, and place for a public hearing before it adopts the final 2019 budget.

The county commission’s Tuesday meeting starts at 7 p.m. in room 321 of the Tooele County Building, 47 S. Main St., Tooele [email protected]

redevelopment activities in the area.

One project area is known as the Elektron Community Reinvestment Project Area. It includes 549 acres of School and Institutional Trust Land Administration property north of U.S. Magnesium.

The other project area is named the Horseshoe Community Reinvestment Project Area. It includes 1,706 acres of SITLA land south of Timpie, near Interstate 80 and Skull Valley Road.

ENYO is anticipating a demand for renewable energy in Utah based on the construc-tion of businesses, manufac-turers, and local governments that include broadening their portfolio of renewable energy use as part of their business plans, according to a repre-sentative of ENYO that spoke at the school board’s Nov. 13 meeting.

The objective of the CRA project areas would be to diversify and expand the coun-ty’s tax base resulting in a ben-efit to all taxing entities. The creation of the CRAs and the use of tax increment financing are essential to accomplishing those objectives, according to a study of the CRAs commis-sioned by the county.

ENYO expects to invest $151 million in the projects with $140 million of that being in personal property — the solar panels and transmission equip-ment.

In order to capture the per-sonal property as new growth in property tax, the personal property must be included in a CRA.

If CRAs are created, the new taxable value to the county’s tax base would be $157 mil-lion and would generate a total of $2.18 million in property taxes. Without the CRA, the new growth value would be $11 million with a total of $154,000 in new growth prop-erty tax, according to ENYO.

ENYO has not developed a proposed budget for the tax incentive for the project, but its representative said the company would work with the school district on developing an agreement.

School board member Scott Bryan pointed out that ENYO’s proposed project is different from other economic develop-ment projects that the school district has been asked to sup-port in the past.

“Currently, we receive no tax from the property,” he said. “There is no impact on our ser-vices, but we gain something. We’re not really giving any-thing up and that makes a big difference.”

Other school board mem-bers echoed Bryan’s com-ments.

The school board directed ENYO to continue discussion with the school district’s busi-ness administrator.

The Tooele County Commission, in its role as the Tooele County Redevelopment Agency Board, will hold a

public hearing on the pro-posed Horseshoe Solar Project Community Reinvestment Area on Dec. 7 at 6:30 p.m. in room 321 of the Tooele County Building at 47 S. Main St. in Tooele [email protected]

OGDEN, Utah (AP) — A Utah mayor killed while serv-ing in the National Guard in Afghanistan had “loved the Afghan people” and was a man of conviction, confi-dence and compassion, fam-ily and military leaders said at a public funeral Saturday.

Brent Taylor, 39, was a deeply patriotic man who was committed to training commandos as part of an effort to build the capacity of the Afghan national army, Utah Army National Guard Maj. Gen. Jefferson Burton said at the service inside an events center in the northern Utah city of Ogden.

Taylor was killed Nov. 3 in an attack by one of the Afghan commandos he was training, military officials said.

“He was completely com-mitted to going and doing this job,” Burton said. “He truly loved the Afghan people and wanted to help them so they could build capacity in themselves and as a nation to be able to stand on their own.”

Taylor’s casket was draped in an American flag and sat in front of a stage where his father, a local leader with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, led the services.

The choir sang “America the Beautiful” as the open-ing hymn and “Born to be a Soldier” to close in a nod to the service’s focus on Taylor’s love of country and commit-ment to sacrifice.

His wife, Jennie, didn’t speak but has previously said the family felt “heartache but no regret” because Taylor was trying to bring freedom to others.

Besides his wife, Taylor leaves behind their seven children, ranging from 11 months to 13 years old.

The memorial service capped off several days of events to honor Taylor.

Hundreds of soldiers salut-ed Taylor’s flag-covered cas-ket Wednesday as his remains returned to a National Guard base in Salt Lake City. A cou-ple hundred motorcycle rid-ers carrying American flags followed the hearse north to Taylor’s hometown of North Ogden in a procession.

On Friday, a National Guard member stood guard over his casket during an all-night vigil at a mortuary.

Taylor had taken yearlong leave of absence as the mayor of North Ogden to go on his second tour to Afghanistan. Taylor, a military intel-ligence officer with Joint Force Headquarters, also had

served two tours in Iraq.Younger brother Derek

Taylor said Brent had a knack for bridging gaps and finding resolutions among people with different views — a talent he developed at the family home where fights and disagreements were frequent. He said his brother always ended their phone conversa-tions with “Love ya, Derek.”

He said his brother was blessed with “three Cs,” — commitment, confidence and compassion — and those were the driving force behind everything he accomplished.

“As a brother, Brent was as good as they come,” Derek Taylor said. “He was the best of all of us.”

Toby Mileski, a friend and former mayor of Pleasant View, a town neighboring North Ogden, remembered Taylor for his love of eating, his penchant for always run-ning late and his good sense of humor.

“We were always laugh-ing — always — and that’s one thing I’m really going to miss,” Mileski said, later add-ing, “Jennie, kids, your dad was a warrior, a patriot and a super person. I am honored and blessed to have been able to call him my best friend.”

Chalk TalkBy Clint Spindler

What a privilege it is to live in the greatest country in the world! This is mostly possible because of the patriotic grit of those who have served, and are currently serving, a military commitment to our country. All military service, whether during conflicts, wars, or peacetime, is accomplished through noble sacrifice and the upholding of ideal principles on which our incredible country was founded.

One rewarding aspect of the mission at Tooele Education Foundation is to promote the spirit of patriotism and dedication to country throughout Tooele School District and our community as a whole. As such, it was nice to see the various Veteran’s Day activities held throughout Tooele School District this past Friday whereby schools invited veterans to lunch and recognition assemblies. As an Army veteran, few things warm my heart more than

to see students and others understand and appreciate the many sacrifices made by our countries service members, and to show genuine gratitude for such service.

Most people are keenly aware that freedom isn’t really free, but rather comes with devastating consequences and a steep price. It was truly humbling to see many groups and organizations come together this past Saturday at the local National Guard Armory and Veterans

Memorial Park to honor our veterans and to shine the spotlight on a tragic reality of military service…veteran suicide rates.

I am particularly reminded of a quote by Cynthia Ozick…“We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.” Thankfully, this was not the case in the Tooele Valley this recent Veteran’s Day. Tooele City

Mayor Debbie Winn, council members, along with Jon Gossett from Life’s Worth Living Foundation teamed up to spearhead a special recognition celebration highlighting the 100th anniversary of Veteran’s Day. Part of their message was, “that it is everyone’s responsibility to continue to do everything humanly possible to support and honor our veterans, and to assist in taking care of them once they return from their service.”

Let us always recognize the essential fight for liberty and freedom that these heroes engage in. In behalf of everyone at Tooele Education Foundation and Tooele County School District, we salute all past and present military service members for the privilege to call this wonderful nation our dearly beloved homeland – Salute!

Stansbury High graduate Sammy Howa, pictured here during a September 2017 game against Park City, helped lead the Peninsula College (Washington) Pirates to the Northwest Athletic Conference women’s soccer championship earlier this month. Howa is a freshman center midfielder for the Pirates.

DARREN VAUGHANSPORTS EDITOR

Stansbury senior Aubree Cheney knew for a long time that she wanted to attend Weber State University, but as she slipped on her new purple Wildcats visor last Wednesday, it still seemed surreal.

“I’m just super excited about this whole thing,” she said. “I can’t believe I made it.”

But make it she did. Cheney, the eighth-place finisher in the girls’ Class 4A 400-meter dash

finals this past spring, signed a national Letter-of-Intent to continue her track and field career in Ogden at Weber State, where she will compete at the Division I level.

“It’s an excellent day for her — national Letter-of-Intent signing day,” Stansbury track and field assistant coach Gary Lund said. “It’s all very excit-ing.”

The opportunity to com-pete at WSU was something Cheney, who recently complet-ed her senior season as a mem-ber of the Stallions’ girls soccer team, has always wanted. She got further confirmation when she made her official campus visit earlier this year.

“I’ve always looked at Weber — they’ve always been such a great school,” she said. “I went

on a visit and I looked around, and the campus is awesome.”

Another key factor for Cheney was the presence of Weber State assistant coach Tiffany Hogan. Hogan com-peted collegiately at Brigham Young University and went on to represent the United States in the heptathlon at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece. Cheney felt an imme-diate connection with Hogan, and is excited to learn from her.

“I feel like she’s kind of the same personality as me, and she showed me some workouts that she does,” Cheney said. “She seems like a good fit for the team and she’s got some background with being in the Olympics, so that’s a good thing.”

Cheney will continue to compete in the 400 at Weber. She won the 400 at a meet in junior high school and has con-

tinued to run that race during her years at Stansbury High.

Ever since she was a little girl, Sammy Howa has been a soccer player.

She started off at Elite FC in Tooele County before play-ing for Stansbury High School and Forza Futbol Club. Then, Peninsula College in Port Angeles, Washington, came calling, giving her a chance to continue her soccer career at the next level.

Howa played a major role for the Pirates, playing every minute of the Northwest Athletic Conference tourna-ment as Peninsula’s starting center midfielder and helping to lead her squad to the NWAC championship on Nov. 11.

“I’ve never been in such an intense moment,” Howa said.

“We were playing rivals and if we lost, we were out. I really liked it. I liked the feel — the game was so important to everyone, even in the stands. It was nice with our team kind of being the star of the show.“

The Pirates became the first team to win four NWAC championships, and posted three shutout victories in their tournament run. Howa was a key part of that run, helping to make sure her teammates were in the right place from her cen-ter mid position.

It was the culmination of a

lot of hard work for Howa, who had to work her way into the lineup as she adjusted to the faster pace of college soccer.

“It was definitely a dramatic change,” she said. “It started off kind of rocky. All the fresh-men were kind of rocky, try-ing to adapt to how fast it is. I feel like we peaked right at the right moment. Right at the end, we were the best that we could possibly be.”

Sammy’s mother, Kim Howa, said it has been a treat

The Tooele swim program may have the history and prestige, but the Buffaloes’ neighbors from Grantsville showed off some talent of their own Thursday afternoon in the county rivals’ swim meet at the Pratt Aquatic Center.

While Tooele won the meet by a 194-74 margin on the girls’ side and the THS boys won 139-118, the Buffs’ victories didn’t come easily. Grantsville pushed Tooele, particularly when it came to the boys’ races.

The Smurthwaite boys — Seth, Ethan and Ben — each were involved in close finishes. Seth Smurthwaitebeat Tooele’s Sho Ikeda by a razor-thin margin of .02 seconds in the 100-yard but-terfly, clocking in at 58.02 seconds to Ikeda’s 58.04. Ben Smurthwaite lost by nine-hundredths of a second in the 100 freestyle, with Tooele’s Harrison Stoddard winning in 57.53.

Ethan Smurthwaite fin-ished second to Ikeda in the 200 individual medley, clock-ing in at 2:20.06 to Ikeda’s 2:16.78. Grantsville also got wins from Zane Thomas in the 100 backstroke (1:00.75) and 50 free (24.75), and the Cowboys’ 400 free relay team of Ethan Smurthwaite, Ben

Smurthwaite, Thomas and Seth Smurthwaite won in 3:43.47.

Brayden Davis had wins for Tooele in the 200 free (2:00.24) and 500 free (5:39.57). Jacob Mott picked up a win in the 100

She knows that at a Division I school, the competition will only be stronger, but she is pre-pared for the challenge as she hopes to lower her time into the 56-second range.

“It’s going to be tough — I know that — but I have to keep being positive,” she said. “Competition is great and I’m

so excited for the competition. I want them to push me and make me better.”

Outside of competing for the Wildcats’ track and field team, Cheney plans to study exercise science at Weber State with the goal of becoming an athletic trainer.

“I want to stay in the sports area,” she said. “I love being around that stuff, and I want to be able to help people.”[email protected]

to watch her daughter thrive at the college level after being a four-time varsity letterman at Stansbury High.

“It was awesome to watch her play. It was nice to have all those years of taking her every-where for soccer kind of pay off a little bit,” she quipped. “She’s been doing soccer ever since she was way little. That was always her goal, to play (in) college.”

Sammy Howa didn’t get a lot of playing time at the begin-ning of the season as she tried to prove herself, but gradually worked her way into coach Kanyon Anderson’s lineup. She started the season as a substi-tute before eventually earning a starting spot at the most cru-cial part of the season.

And when the pressure was on, she flourished.

“It was nothing like we’d seen in high school or club, so that was kind of an added pressure,” she said. “Everyone was watching. The men’s soc-cer team and women’s bas-ketball team all came, so the crowd was crazy.”

Sammy Howa plans on play-ing at Peninsula College again in 2019 before transferring to

a four-year school to continue her playing career. The original decision to go to Washington for school wasn’t an easy one, as she had originally planned on attending Southern Utah University in Cedar City before a coaching change caused her to change her plans. But after attending multiple camps and tournaments and drawing the attention of Peninsula’s coach-ing staff, she knew it was the right fit.

“I knew that she always wanted to go to Washington because she had played with her club team in the Nike tournaments in Seattle,” Kim Howa said. “I kept telling her, ‘it’s really far away, Sammy.’ It’s been a good experience for her. I know she’s been a little homesick, but she’s really glad she stuck it out.”

Sammy Howa said she is thankful for her parents’ sup-port as she moved 15 hours away from home to follow her dream. She also cred-ited coaches such as Forza FC coach Ray Parkhurst and Elite FC coach John Graber for helping her develop her game, as well as Tooele High coach Stephen Duggan, who wrote a letter of recommendation and helped her get her name out to college [email protected]

On the heels of 9/11, the United States invited the world to Utah for the 2002 Winter Olympics. To help handle possible security issues, they turned to a woman with a passion

for criminal justice. Ellen Smith, of Stansbury Park, has a certain glam-

our about her as she walks, punctuated by the staccato of heels. When she speaks, her accent announces a dif-ferent birthplace.

Smith grew up in Rhode Island in the 1960s when women were traditionally nurses or teachers, but she loved understanding crime and its motivations instead.

“In the state of Rhode Island there is quite a high proportion of crime, and I wondered how good people could make such bad choices,” Smith said. “It’s right on the ocean and obviously drugs would come in through there.”

While Smith’s parents were neither high school grad-uates nor wealthy, they lived in Newport, a town known for wealthy coastal estates. It was there Smith met the cross-section of the world who came there to sail.

Ellen Smith of Stansbury Park led media security during the 2002 Winter Olympics and now shares her passion for law enforcement with high school students

Making a DifferenceEllen Smith was the head of media security during the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. She now teaches criminal

law and criminal justice at the Community Learning Center in Tooele and at Salt Lake Community College.

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Help! Our 13-year-old dog “Doofie” has decided that the best way to get his sup-per is to bark nonstop, start-ing at 2 p.m. He doesn’t stop until he is fed at 5. After dinner, he is quiet for a few minutes and then starts barking again until 8 p.m. when he gets his pill in some peanut butter. He’s the oldest of five dogs and the others don’t do this. We’ve

tried changing his feeding times, adding a little snack between meals, but nothing seems to help. We’re pulling out our hair from his high-pitched barking. What else can we do? — Pammie R., via email

DEAR PAMMIE: I feel ya! Nonstop barking can be very stressful for everyone. My initial thinking is that Doofie is suffering from separation anxiety; the evening meal is comforting, as is his treat. His fixation on those specific feeding times is interesting, though.

Because he’s a senior dog, something else may be con-tributing to the barking. I think there’s anxiety at work here, but its source is some-thing you’ll need to try and figure out. Take him in for

a checkup with the vet and explain what’s happening. Before the visit, keep a log of his behavior for a few days — sometimes this can reveal pat-terns you hadn’t noticed. The vet may recommend medica-tion to calm him during the afternoon.

Keep his feeding and pill time the same and spend plenty of active time with Doofie between 2 and 5. Take him outside, run through a few training exercises, play tug of war with his favorite toy — whatever it takes to work off some of his energy and just be there with him.

Trivia Test Answers

Q: Who sang the song that introduced the Oct. 30 epi-sode of “NCIS”? It sounded quite good. — L.M.

A: The song is “Rockin’ Zombie,” originally released in 1960 by the doo-wop band The Crewnecks. Apparently, they were on several of Dick Clark’s touring shows, but later broke up due to military obligations.

It’s hard to believe that “NCIS” is now in its 16th season. Mark Harmon is still starring in the crime series, but co-stars Cote de Pablo, Pauley Perrette and Michael Weatherly all have departed. Weatherly now headlines the CBS series “Bull,” which many will be surprised to learn is

based on Dr. Phil’s (McGraw) career as a trial consultant before he was discovered by Oprah and eventually landed his own talk show.

• • •Q: Where has Margaret

Brennan been on “Face the Nation”? I get the show mixed up with “Meet the Press,” so it might be that show. Either way, she hasn’t been on in a while. — D.B.

A: You’re correct. Margaret Brennan is the host of CBS’s “Face the Nation,” but she was gone for two months on maternity leave. She recently returned to the set and filmed three back-to-back interviews with House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, newly re-elected Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and longtime South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham.

• • •Q: I wanted to add to the

conversation about remakes. I watched the remake of “The Sound of Music” on PBS recently. I didn’t have a prob-

lem with the recasting, but I felt that in order to shorten it, they left out a lot in the development of the characters and their relationships. In the original, there were subtle changes which, to me, made it much more meaningful and realistic. They also left out two songs in the remake. I especially missed the one where the children put on a puppet show. — Joyce G.

A: I think it’s very dif-ficult to improve on the original production of a beloved movie or TV show because, no matter how good the perfor-mances are now, noth-ing is going to recapture the way we felt when we saw the original. As a child, “Grease” and “The Wizard of Oz” were two movies that are forever carved in my memory

as The Best, and no matter who wears Sandy’s black pedal

pushers or Dorothy’s dress, even if they sing like an angel,

it’s just not going to be the same as the original, to me.

Before PBS broadcast its version of “The Sound of Music” this year, NBC aired “The Sound of Music Live!” in 2015 star-ring Carrie Underwood. It ran 135 minutes and scored very high ratings, prompting NBC and other networks to greenlight more live musicals. According to “People” magazine though, the one that impressed view-ers and critics the most was FOX’s live version of my favorite “Grease.”

Are the Schuco stuffed bears made by the famous German

Schuco company that made the very collectible toy cars? The German company started making clockwork and other mechanical tin toys in 1912 as Schreyer & Co. in Nuremberg, Germany. The name was changed to Schuco in 1921. The compa-ny designed and made many clever toys that moved.

Teddy bears were added during the 1920s, and some were miniature bears that held a bottle inside. The famous “Yes/No” bear moved its head when you moved its tail up and down or side-wise. The business faced many reorganizations, and new companies formed in Germany and the U.S. until 1972, when it declared bank-ruptcy. It was later acquired and is now part of Simba Dickie Group, a major toy company.

The Schuco company in the U.S. made teddy bears in the 1920s with black but-ton eyes. A few years later, the bears had jointed arms, jointed legs and flat feet, and by 1925, some of them could walk. An early 1930s Schuco Yes/No stuffed spaniel in nice condition with cut-glass eyes recently sold at a Bertoia Auctions auction for $900, although many Schuco toys sell today for less than $300.

• • •Q: I inherited a carved

wooden cane with a hid-den sword in it. The cane is about 37 1/2 inches long and the blade is about 18 1/2 inches. The carved handle head looks Egyptian, and there are carved designs down the entire cane. It has a metal tip and a metal piece with a button to release the blade. I can’t find any markings on it. Any information including approximate value would be helpful.

A: Canes were popular accessories for the well-dressed man from the 1700s to the early 1900s. Gadget canes, which are canes that have special features or con-ceal items, are popular with collectors. Canes have been made that conceal swords and other weapons, flasks, lighters, fans, perfume bottles, pool cues, tools and other items. The cane’s value is determined by the material of the head, intricate hand carving and special features. A carved sword cane with overall leaf and vine carving sold for $360 recently, but several more common sword canes went for $25-$55.

MONDAY’S WARM COCOA

THE RIGHT THING

HARVARD HEALTH LETTER

‘Harry Pupper’s Rules’ of living authentically can inspire all of usIt was an early fall evening.

The sun was making its quick dive behind the

Stansbury Mountains. I turned to walk down a hallway and noticed Harry Pupper, my faithful companion, shadow-ing my every move. I smiled because when I looked outside, the shadows were stretched long, just as they always are as the sun treks farther west. Harry was also stretching his longing for an evening walk by wanting to go out early.

“Odd,” I thought, as I looked over at the clock to see

the time of 6:30 p.m. in large red numerals and letters. And, that’s when it hit me.

Dogs don’t read clocks.Daylight Savings Time had

ended just one week earlier, so Harry was exactly right. He was the one gauging time correctly. His internal clock was not being manipulated, no matter what the artifi-

cial, mechanical clock said. Humans sometimes make up their own rules governing transitory, non-authentic liv-ing.

“Dogs don’t read clocks!” I said to the inside of my house and to anyone else who hap-pened to be within earshot.

You and I could benefit from “Harry Pupper’s Rules” of liv-ing authentically.

First, live with enthusiastic optimism. When I open the closet door to get Harry’s leash out for our evening walk, he barks for joy and does a little spin, dance-move to show his

delight.Second, focus on your loved

ones. When Harry’s internal clock tells him it’s our time to go out, he follows me around, ears perked, eyes bright, and sees nothing and nobody else until we go outside together.

Third, snuggle up with the people closest to you. At the end of our walks, Harry runs through the house to let every-one know he has come home. Then he comes to where I’m sitting to let me rub his ears and rest his head on my leg.

Fourth, be quick to forgive and forget. On this night, I

looked at the clock to see it was 6:30 p.m. I said, “Sorry little buddy, it’s not time yet.” He looked sad for a moment and then waited patiently until I called. When I did call, an hour later, he harbored no trace of ill will. He was genu-inely enthusiastic and focused on what we were about to do together.

“Ah!” I said. “These are beneficial, lifelong rules to live by.”

Yes, Daylight Savings Time ended just one week earlier, and Harry Pupper was exactly right, again. He was the one

gauging time and life correctly. His internal clock and heart were not being manipulated, no matter what the artificial, mechanical clock and his imperfect human buddy said. Humans sometimes make up their own rules to live by and such rules are transitory.

Harry Pupper’s Rules are never transitory. They’re authentic and inspire every one of us to live with our heart on the outside.

Does employer owe sick time to part-time employee?For almost a decade, a

reader, “Gretchen,” has worked part-time for a

community center. She’s paid hourly and receives no health-care insurance or vacation time.

“I don’t get paid when I take time off,” she writes. “But I do have great flexibility to sched-ule time off when I need it.”

It’s a perfect position for Gretchen, she writes, because, after a full-time career where she was on salary and put in long weeks, she had saved enough to be able to decide how much she wants to work in any given week. Rather than retiring, Gretchen contin-ues to work because she finds the work to be engaging and challenging. Plus, she likes the people with whom she works.

One thing Gretchen discov-ered she does get from her work at the community center is paid sick time. Every several months she accrues an hour of sick time. She’s able to carry over up to 40 hours of accrued sick time every year.

“I rarely get sick,” Gretchen writes. As a result, her

accrued sick time hours pile up.

Now that it’s November, Gretchen has realized that if she doesn’t use some of the sick time she’s accumulated, she’s going to lose it once the new year arrives.

“Is it wrong to put in for sick time if I’m not really sick?” she asks, pointing out that her employer doesn’t require a physician’s note to verify sickness.

It’s not unheard of for employees to call in sick to the job to get a day off to tend to other business or simply to take a day off. But lying to an employer about a sickness to get a day off is wrong.

The accrued sick day policy for part-time workers seems like a good benefit for workers at Gretchen’s community cen-ter. It might seem understand-able that employees believe

that would be leaving money on the table if they don’t take those paid hours off. But the intention of the benefit is to cover when employees are actually sick. It does not seem intended as a pool of money to which employees are enti-

tled for any reason.If Gretchen wants to broach

the subject with her super-visor and ask if she can be reimbursed for a personal day rather than a sick day, that seems a reasonable action. She might also ask if doctor’s

visits might be considered sick days. But I suspect she knows the answer will be that the policy only applies to those days on which an employee is actually sick.

The right thing is for Gretchen to continue working

at her part-time job for as long as she enjoys the work. If she’s sick and needs to take time off, she should take advan-tage of the paid sick time she accrues.

If she calls in sick when she’s not, Gretchen not only risks not having the time to use if she truly does get sick, she also risks betraying a trust with her supervisor and the community center. Plus, it’s wrong to lie simply because you want something.

Warning: Avoid these novel treats in shopping malls and restaurants

If your grandkids urge you to indulge them in a popular new snack at the mall, just say no. The FDA is warning that consuming products with liquid nitrogen added at the last minute can lead to injury. The products are marketed under names such as “Dragon’s Breath” and “Nitro Puff.” They’re cheese puffs or cereal pieces that are frozen in liquid nitrogen and then dipped in a special sauce. When you put them in your mouth, the prod-ucts release vapor that looks

like smoke. Liquid nitrogen is also added to some cocktails to make them look like they’re emitting fog. But the FDA says all of these products can cause severe damage to skin and internal organs and may cause breathing problems. The agency advises you to avoid the products.

Move more, even if it’s gentle activity

Are you putting off exercise because you think you need to jump into a rigorous rou-tine? An observational study published Aug. 8, 2018, in the Journal of the American Heart

Association suggests that even light physical activity, combined with less time sitting, is associ-ated with signs of better heart and blood vessel health among older adults. Researchers ana-lyzed health information for more than 1,600 people ages 60 to 64 who underwent clini-cal assessments and wore heart and physical activity monitors for five days. Participants’ activ-ity ranged from light intensity -- like stretching and golfing -- to moderate-to-vigorous activ-ity, like brisk walking, dancing, and lawn mowing. Scientists also looked at participants’ blood markers for heart and

blood vessel disease, includ-ing the inflammation markers C-reactive protein and interleu-kin-6. The results: compared with being sedentary, people with light to moderate activity levels had more favorable bio-marker profiles. The takeaway: lots of research has shown that replacing sedentary time with any amount of physical activ-ity is linked to better health, so don’t let high activity goals keep you from getting off the couch.

TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN TUESDAY November 20, 2018B6

Come along on a fascinating journey back to Turn of the Century New England; to Martha’s Vineyard, Cape Cod, Old York, the Great Shell Mounds of Damariscot-ta, Newport, Old Saybrook, Cuttyhunk and dozens of other areas.

Reproduced with illustrations from the actual turn-of-the-century New England magazines in which they first appeared, these articles by the well-known au-thors of that era bring the magic of the New England Coast to life as no modern-day author can achieve.

Sail on into “living” history with Tales of the New England Coast.

Leonard Schiller is a novelist in his seventies, a second-string but respectable talent who produced only a small handful of books. Heather Wolfe is an attractive graduate student in her twenties. She read Schiller’s novels when she was growing up and they changed her life. When the ambitious Heather decides to write her master’s thesis about Schiller’s work and sets out to meet him—convinced she can bring Schiller back into the literary world’s spot-light—the unexpected consequences of their meet-ing alter everything in Schiller’s ordered life. What follows is a quasi-romantic friendship and intellectu-al engagement that investigates the meaning of art, fame, and personal connection.

Tales of the New England Coast

Visions of AmericaPhotographing Democracy

A Country Called Home

Hope in a Jar

Starting Out in the EveningThe Story of Marriage

Visions of America addresses a single question: How do you photograph de-mocracy? After all, democracy is an idea; and not something one can easily wrap one’s lens around. But photographing de-mocracy is indeed what Joseph Sohm has done in this epic journey across the fifty states. To capture this country’s incred-ible diversity, Sohm frames his national work as George Seurat might a pointillist painting. With each photograph, an in-dividual dot was applied to his American canvas. Spanning three decades, tens of thousands of images were assembled in what becomes a compelling mosaic.

Thomas Deracotte is just out of medical school, and his pregnant wife, Helen, have their whole future mapped out for them in upper-crust Connecticut. But they are dreamers, and they set out to create their own farm in rural Idaho instead. The fields are in ru-ins when they arrive, so they hire a farmhand named Manny to help rebuild. But the sudden, frightening birth of their daughter, Elise, tests the young couple, and Manny is called upon to mend this fractured fam-ily. An extraordinary story of hope and idealism, A

Country Called Home is a testament to the power of family—the family we are born to and the family we create.

Twenty years ago, Allie Denty was the pretty one and her best friend Olivia Pelham was the smart one. Throughout high school, they were inseparable…until a vicious rumor about Olivia— a rumor too close to the truth—ended their friendship.

Now, on the eve of their twentieth high school reunion, Allie, a temp worker, finds herself suddenly single, a little chubby, and feeling old. Olivia, a cool and successful magazine beauty editor in New York, realizes she’s lonely, and is finally ready to face her demons.

Sometimes hope lives in the future; sometimes it comes from the past; and sometimes, when every stu-pid thing goes wrong, it comes from a prettily pack-aged jar filled with scented cream and promises.

“We think we know the ones we love.” So Pearlie Cook begins her indirect, and devastating exploration of the mystery at the heart of every relationship--how we can ever truly know another person.

It is 1953 and Pearlie, a dutiful young housewife, finds herself living in the Sunset District in San Francisco, caring not only for her husband’s fragile health, but also for her son, who is afflicted with polio. Then, one Saturday morning, a stranger appears on her doorstep, and every-thing changes. Lyrical, and surprising, The Story of a Mar-riage is, in the words of Khaled Housseini, “a book about love, and it is a marvel to watch Greer probe the mysteries of love to such devastating effect.”

“It was a great place for a child and it gave me aspira-tions for doing things,” Smith said. “I would rather grow up in no other place than Newport. I loved the ocean and outdoors.”

Her father drove a bus and her mother worked as a domestic in the estates. Her mother’s family immi-grated from Portugal, spoke Portuguese at home, and raised powerful women including her great-grand-mother.

“To be honest, my great-grandmother was a bootleg-ger,” Smith said. “She had a still.”

In addition to her great-grandmother, Smith’s mother and aunt were two more influential female relatives. Both joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and were responsible for funding church building projects and leading organiza-tions.

These women inspired Smith to pursue an uncom-mon education and career path.

“My mother said, ‘Ellen there’s something you have to know. You could be anything you want to be. The only one that could stop you is yourself if you give up, and don’t work for it,’” Smith said.

After starting a family, Smith took a class in profil-ing homicides — identifying a criminal’s traits from the evidence — which lit a spark in her.

By the mid 1980s, Smith graduated from the University of Louisville with a Bachelor’s in Justice Administration and Law.

“I was very young and naive, but I believed in my heart that I could really make a difference, and I wanted to make a difference,” she said.

In the criminal justice sys-tem, Smith said she observed many minorities who were denied justice such as having an attorney, which extended into society as some were excluded from voting.

“I’ve seen an autopsy done and when they cut them and you open them up, we’re all the same,” she said.

Smith ended up investi-gating embezzlement for 15 years where she turned evidence over to the FBI to recover assets and make arrests. Smith also found her-self living in Lima, Ohio, and became a single mother.

“I bought my own homes,” she said. “My children were older, so I knew that this career was something I wasn’t going to give up. It was some-thing that there was a drive within me.”

In 2001, a position became available in security manage-ment with protective services for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. Smith’s criminology background qualified her for the job. She worked with Mitt Romney starting in early 2001 to pre-pare for the Olympics.

“I had something that I knew, and they needed it,” Smith said.

Smith took the security

position over the media cen-ter that filled the entire Salt Palace Convention Center.

“That’s where the press and the television worked,” she said. “It was a whole com-munity within that one build-ing, including a beauty salon and a bank. So it was a lot to secure.”

Smith’s background in criminology was used to pre-vent an attack like the 1996 Atlanta Olympic bombing, which occurred in front of the media center. Terrorists could address the whole world instantaneously from those centers, she said.

“You don’t go to work every day saying ‘Today I’m going to get killed,’ ” Smith said. “But you are aware it could hap-pen. You live and you do your best everyday and you don’t look at what could be, but what is.”

The terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, occurred after Smith had already spent months of 18 hour days securing the Olympics. The Olympic security plans changed direction that day.

“We had a very tragic event take place,” Smith said. “It affected all of us, not just the people in the Olympics. We needed something in America at the time to show that we still have strength and we could invite the world to Salt Lake City. You work hard, you do what’s right. Sometimes we don’t even know the abilities that we have until we have an opportunity to do it.”

Police officers from around the nation were brought in, including two she brought from Lima, Ohio, in addition to the Utah and local Salt Lake City police force.

“We were apprehensive, and did we feel we had to learn a lot quickly!” Smith said. “And we did.”

In addition, Smith was impressed by the local police departments.

“I read an article that Salt Lake City was one of the lead-ing culturally diverse police departments,” Smith said. “And I thought how in the world? It’s because so many people serve missions. They can converse.”

Smith said she watched officers speak with people from all over the world in their language and heal hearts.

“We worked really hard, but everyone did. That’s why I felt Salt Lake City was an ideal place to have the Olympics,” Smith said. “No other Olympics had the volun-teers that we had here. Good people that would volunteer their time and effort for a long period of time for the Olympics. They were so kind to people and good. It was a tremendous experience.”

After the Olympics, Smith was offered a top position in Homeland Security in Washington, D.C., in addition to security positions at the next two Olympics. She found herself, however, in love with Utah.

Smith stayed and married a security officer who had been stationed in the media center. Her life took a pause.

“I thought, ‘What in the world can I do out here?’” Smith said. “I could do embezzlement cases, but it

requires a lot of time and a lot of travel. I wanted to be able to be with my husband.”

Now Smith polices the classroom and feels pas-sionate about the influ-ence she has on the justice system by teaching at the Community Learning Center in Tooele. She teaches high school concurrent enrollment classes — both high school and college credit — in Criminal Justice, Criminal Law, Careers in Law Enforcement, and Homeland Security.

“I can honestly say in the 13 years that I have been teaching with the Tooele School District, I’ve never had a behavioral problem,” Smith said.

Smith feels the Olympics allowed her to see what Utah was all about. She was impressed with the good-ness of religious people of all denominations.

“I couldn’t believe how hard people work,” she said. “Being brought up on the ocean was a huge part of my life. Obviously there’s no ocean, but you have scenery that is beyond words.”

Smith feels she confidently embraced a top security position at the 2002 Winter Olympics because two power-ful Portuguese women spoke these words:

“Get out there. Make a dif-

ference. Sitting at home and complaining, I see people that are so depressed. Don’t sit around. Take a chance, Get out there. Find something that you can contribute to.”

Smith holds an Olympic torch she purchased during the 2002 Winter Olympics. After the Olympics, she had job offers in Washington, D.C., but chose to stay in Utah.


Smith has a room in her home adorned with Olympic mementos, including badges worn by her husband, Greg Smith, who she met while heading media security during the Olympics.
