But then things changed.   The first things his family noticed were some balance issues. He started to fall over a lot and they noticed his gait changed when he ran. Six months later, his father, August Teuscher , explained, “His eyes started to look off … [Read more...]

Magna, Utah—the town that forgot its name

July 14, 2019 by Robert Goble Leave a Comment

Pleasant Green, AKA Magna The pioneer history of Pleasant Green, commonly known as Magna, Utah, remains largely untold outside of dusty family histories and faded folklore. I have been remedying this situation through YouTube documentaries that will help preserve this rich history, revealing a complete picture of these lost years to younger generations.  There is even a … [Read more...]

Bigfoot In Mormon lore … is Bigfoot Cain?

July 13, 2019 by Danny B. Stewart Leave a Comment

  Who is this hairy hominid? The Sasquatch or Bigfoot (both terms are plural and singular) is North America’s largest cryptozoological mystery. The name “Bigfoot” has come to denote any unknown relic hominid that is reported throughout the world. However, each unknown creature does have is own label, such as the Yeti or Abominable Snowman in the Himalayas. It is … [Read more...]

Breathtaking Dining at Snowbirds’ Full Moon Dinners

July 12, 2019 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Under the Sun & Moon If you’re weary of routine restaurant dining, I have a way to break out of the culinary rut: Snowbird Resort’s Full Moon Dinners. Each month, in conjunction with a new full moon, Snowbird hosts an anything-but-typical buffet dinner. What’s atypical about it? Well, for starters, the Full Moon Dinners are held at 11,000 feet in The Summit … [Read more...]

Ingredients for crab … [Read more...]

Sip o’ the Week—Refreshing, Summery Sauvignon Blanc

July 12, 2019 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

  Tenuta Ca’ Bolani Sauvignon DOC Superiore Ah, White wine. With summer temperatures this week heading toward triple digits, I’m not inclined to spend a lot of time standing in front of a stove.

My Night Out on THE BLOCKS

July 10, 2019 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Sometimes, living in a city can inure you to that very place. Friends from out of town come to visit Salt Lake City and typically say, “Wow! I didn’t realize this place was so cool!” But locals too often take what our city has to offer—and there’s a lot—for granted. Or, we fail to see all the options directly in front of us.  For that reason, my wife and I periodically … [Read more...]

Pete Ashdown On Internet Privacy and the Dangers of Social Media

July 10, 2019 by Arvid Keeson Leave a Comment

Our brave new world—is privacy is a thing of the past? We live in a world where our lives are becoming more and more dictated by social media and algorithm-driven computer platforms.
