How To Beat The Virus Without Feeling Like a Prisoner

April 8, 2020 by David E. Jensen Leave a Comment

On Sunday, I was sitting at home with Nemo, my cat, minding my own business and practicing social isolation. (How’s that for an oxymoron?) As a single man, I’m accustomed to being alone, but I am not good at being forced to participate in the sort of unprecedented paradigm shift into social disintegration we are experiencing now. I had two options: Stay at home and fret … [Read more...]

Who'da thunk that beer can build brain cells? But that’s what you get with Moab Science on Tap—a whole lot of science, as much beer as you want (responsibly), and a gathering of community. Science Moab on Tap is the offspring of Science Moab, which was created by Kristina Young, an ecologist who wanted to engage people in science focusing on Southeastern Utah and the … [Read more...]

April 6, 2020 by Sophia Limpert Leave a Comment

Discovering Moab, Again

April 5, 2020 by Shannan Butler Leave a Comment

Bikes, Jeeps, and rafts, oh my! There are hundreds if not thousands of different things to do in Moab, such as 4x4ing, rafting, hiking, biking, rock climbing, rock hunting, finding dinosaur tracks & fossils, skydiving, kayaking, paddleboarding, UTV riding, zip-lining, and mountaineering. The things you can do are only limited to your imagination. A person could spend a … [Read more...]

Allen Park in Sugar House is Saved From Development

April 4, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

Allen Park is a tiny hidden gem in Sugar House. Hidden on purpose, because the residents wished that nobody would ever find it. Anyone under the age of forty has probably never seen it nor toured the place, as it was intentionally overgrown and out of sight. The last time we went to Allen Park, about five years ago, we were chased out. One resident told us in a very unfriendly … [Read more...]

Penne with White Sausage Sauce

April 3, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Here is a quick and easy comfort food pasta dish which I modified a little from the original New York Times recipe by Mark Bittman. Here, pasta is coated in a sauce that’s much lighter than most tomato-based sausage sauces. I make this dish using hot Italian sausage but it’s also very good with turkey sausage.  Ingredients: 1 Tbsp butter 1 Tbsp olive oil 1 large … [Read more...]

Utah Brews News During COVID-19 Pandemics

April 3, 2020 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

As is the case with restaurants and bars, Utah’s brewing industry is under severe stress thanks to COVID-19 shutdowns and restrictions. Brewpubs are trying to survive with curbside takeout service just as many breweries are selling beer-to-go. (Thankfully, that hasn’t been terminated … yet.) We can all help by drinking locally-brewed beer and buying gift cards and swag from … [Read more...]
