Feedback from Sept. 20 and Beyond
Cover story, Sept. 20, "Conservation Crisis" The most effective conservation program you never heard of is about to go down the drain. @brianmaffly Via Twitter Thanks for putting this topic front and center. @lanikaiegoff Via Instagram Opinion, Sept. 20, "On Puppies and Sneakers" Ha, wow. This article took me for a loop through a very clever rabbit hole. @a_riverrat Via Twitter Dine, Sept. 20, Bhutan House This is a great place. I took my family for a birthday dinner last week. Great food and service.
Feedback from Sept. 13 and Beyond
Cover package, Sept. 13, "Tour of Utah: Bookstore Edition" Mr. Ferry, I am a true bibliophile—40,000 books! Your article failed to list some of Utah's largest (Eborn Books) and oldest (Pete Marshall's Utah Book & Magazine) bookstores. Eborn Books on Main Street is huge! And has three other locations (Ogden, Layton, Provo). Utah Book has been around for more than 100 years. How could you not include them in your article? John Heinerman, Salt Lake City Opinion, Sept.
Feedback from Sept. 6 and Beyond
Cover story, Sept. 6, "Aflutter" I keep looking for monarch caterpillars every time I see milkweed. No luck yet. @thaddeusmt Via Instagram Very informative! I've added tons of milkweed to my garden thanks to the help from [conservationist] Rachel Taylor. Jennifer Carey Via cityweekly.net Great article. Hoping it inspires more people to plant milkweed. @Grandprismaticseed Via Instagram Everyone should plant milkweed. Unless you're renting. Then consult your landlord first.
FOR THE BOOKS
The world might be changing faster than we can keep up with it, and sometimes it feeks like the written word could be on the verge of becoming an endangered species. But if you look a bit deeper, you'll see that we need and cherish writers, storytellers and books more than ever. They're a way of helping us understand this changing world, making us laugh, cry and think whether we're in front of a computer screen, watching writers read their own work or curled up with actual old-school pages.
Feedback from Aug. 30 and Beyond
Cover story, Aug. 30, "Get Off the Road!" Rather than titling it "Get Off the Road!" a better heading might have been: "Get Off the Sidewalk!" I do a lot of my in-town travel by bicycle and I am an avid supporter of alternative and innovative transportation—anything that reduces the consumption of fossil fuels and reduces traffic congestion. As such, I love the idea of electric bicycles and scooters, docked and undocked.

John de Campos click to enlarge Brews, glorious brews! As anxiety over the precious few remaining days of summer rises, so do temperatures (what global warming?) and the need for a tall one—or seven. Luckily for everyone in the realm, this year's Utah Beer Festival—happening over two days, Aug. 18 and 19—is here to deliver the frosty goods.

'Let Them In'
Shortly before its 8 p.m. start, news links were shared on the emergency stay granted by a federal judge to those detained under President Trump’s travel ban on the Facebook event page for a sit-in slated at Salt Lake International. Still, a crowd a couple of hundred strong flooded into the airport’s Terminal 2. With chants of “Let them in” and “No hate, no fear.
Pride Issue 2018
Page 2 of 8 Hello, Jason! From Magna to the world, Jason CoZmo is redefining local drag. Story and photos By Enrique Limón The setup backstage at Club X, home of the Viva La Diva show and Broadway Divas brunch, includes all the basic accoutrements you'd expect of a drag review—wigs galore, endless containers of pressed powder, a few cans of glitter spray, mile-long false eyelashes peering from jewel cases and ... power tools?

Blame it on a man history remembers only as Brother Bainbridge. In the 1840s, Bainbridge reported spotting a dolphin-like leviathan in the Great Salt Lake. Although our lake is located some 4,000 miles from Loch Ness, sightings of the mythical being—soon to be christened the North Shore Monster—grew and, by summer 1877, published accounts of it and its "frightful bellow" ran in the Corinne Daily Reporter and later the Deseret News.

Movie Reviews: Life of the Party, Breaking In, The Judge
Melissa McCarthy and Gabrielle Union star in two very different stories about moms for Mother's Day weekend, while art-house offerings include a Belgian romantic drama, a documentary about a pioneering jurist and a philosophically-minded science-fiction yarn.(pictured) doesn't give much weight to its jokey "nice mom + girls-gone-wild" premise, but at least offers several funny women a chance to show their chops.
Movie Reviews: Tully, Overboard, Itzhak
While super-heroes continue to dominate the multiplexes, a couple of new releases offer humor and heartbreak, and art-house offerings include a pair of very different artist-profile documentaries. Grace Jones: Bloodlight and Bami makes the case for its subject's diva status, even if you'd never heard of her before. You get beautiful music but not a ton of insight in's portrait of violinist Itzhak Perlman.Eric D.
Listen to His Declaration
The era of the cell phone and its perpetual distraction isn't always kind to live performances.
Hear Them Roar
In the age of #MeToo, a women’s expo sounds like an empowering, socially conscious experience, possibly with highly educational and informative seminars directed at modern women navigating a modern world. But this is Utah, where homespun crafts and the gender pay gap rule. So, is the Salt Lake Women’s Show with its clean, non-threatening logo and overtly feminine (pink!) website really serving the needs of Utah women?
Dining Guide 2018

Fry sauce so tangy, you'll want to bathe in it. Onion rings so crispy, they'll make you consider swearing off french fries for good. Locally made barbecue that forces even a persnickety Texan to sing its praises. They all sound like tall tales, but they're not. When it came to assembling a sampler plate of some of the best representatives of Salt Lake City's culinary landscape, City Weekly contributors jumped at the opportunity. The question was: Where to start?

Who's Missing?
Before Cassandra Begay's aunt was brutally beaten to death on the Navajo Nation, before the life of Carol Surveyor's mother was abruptly taken, before 8-month-pregnant Savanna Greywind's mutilated body was found in North Dakota inspiring congressional legislation and before Denae Shanidiin's aunt was attacked and killed in her own home, there was Myrtle Bear Pete. "I remember my grandpa was there and it was cold. It was in February and there was snow—I mean a lot of snow ...
Zinke's Mule Deer Announcement Gets Political | Buzz Blog
When Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke makes big announcements in Utah, you’d better listen. At least, that was the case in December, when he and President Donald Trump stopped by to say they were lopping off millions of acres from two Utah national monuments. But unless you’re a mule deer hunter, you probably were less interested in his visit on Friday, when he signed a secretarial order that puts resources toward mule deer conservation.
Travelogue: Australia part three - Tasmania
Today we’re welcoming Sarah Arnoff back with part three of her Australian travelogue. We’re following on from part one, which covered Sydney and part two, which took a look at Brisbane. Welcome to part three, the beautiful island of Tasmania. Over to you, Sarah. If you only have six days on the rugged and rural island of Tasmania, do whatever you can to procure more time there.
"Telehealth Amendments" Bill Sparks Debate | The Daily Feed
A proposal to prevent doctors from prescribing abortion-inducing drugs in online video conferencing with patients has advanced in the Utah Legislature despite opposition from civil rights advocates and doctors. A House technology committee passed the measure on to the full House Monday in a meeting at the Capitol. The anti-abortion provision is tucked in a larger bill regulating reimbursement for costs associated with the digital care generally used by rural patients.
“The State of Our City Is Strong” | The Daily Feed
Leading off her second State of the City address, Mayor Jackie Biskupski said homelessness is not a one-neighborhood burden. Meanwhile, residents from Sugar House protested the city’s decision to put a homeless shelter in their neighborhood. They picketed outside the Marmalade Library, where the mayor delivered her speech Tuesday night. “It’s the wrong place to put a shelter, everybody knows that,” said John Begay, who held a handmade “Biskupski should resign” poster.
Bear River Remembered | The Daily Feed
One hundred-plus spectators including Shoshone tribal members, history buffs, politicians and non-native locals gathered in a small circle of trees tucked between two farms a few miles north of Preston, Idaho on Sunday. They were there to join the Northwestern Band of Shoshone Indians in commemorating the 154th anniversary of one of the largest mass killings of Native Americans in history: the Bear River Massacre.On Jan.
Utah State Legislature: Week 2 | The Daily Feed
Advocates aiming to help sexual assault survivors at the Utah Capitol Monday cheered some proposals and slammed others on the second week of the legislative session. Campus sexual assault: Students who report rape and sexual assault or harassment to their universities should be able to tell school employees without risking confidentiality. That’s the focus of a bill from Angela Romero, D-Salt Lake City, that still is being drafted.
Utah House Bans Posters from Visitor Section | The Daily Feed
Anyone wishing to glimpse Utah's House of Representatives at work now has a checkpoint to go through. A state trooper stationed outside the balcony overlooking the Capitol's west chamber isn't looking for firearms, however. Guns are allowed in. The highway patrol officer is instead searching backpacks and briefcases for two-dimensional contraband: posters and banners.
Travelogue: Australia part two - Brisbane
Today we’re welcoming Sarah Arnoff back with part two of her Australian travelogue. We’re following on from Part one: Sydney with a look at Brisbane. Over to you, Sarah. After experiencing a rather rainy Sydney, we hopped up to much sunnier Brisbane to visit some friends. Though we didn’t spend very much time in the city itself, we were able to explore the surrounding areas thoroughly.
Travelogue: Australia part one - Sydney
My husband and I are neither whimsical nor methodical about where we decide to travel. Perusing Google Maps is a favorite pastime and many of our decisions are based on a “what have we never seen before?” school of thought. I was drastically close to booking tickets to Europe last spring when I stumbled upon a ridiculously good fare to Australia, so we made a sharp left and ended up spending two weeks on the opposite side of the world. We began and ended in Sydney, where rain was a major theme.
Protesters Demand Mayor, DA, Resign
A day after Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill announced that a pair of police officers was justified in shooting a 17-year-old boy in February, about two dozen protesters gathered on Tuesday to decry the decision and demand that Gill and Salt Lake City Mayor Jackie Biskupski resign.The subdued protest, which paled in size to one held days after Abdullahi "Abdi" Mohamed, who is black, was shot on Feb.
Travelogue: Antelope Island State Park with the Ferrania Rondine box camera
My aunt picked me up a 1948 Ferrania Rondine box camera (127 format!) at a yard sale a while back and it’s been used sparingly over the years, mostly sitting on a shelf in my house gathering dust. I don’t shoot too 127 incredibly often, so it’d been a good while since I had last used it.
Proud
Mama Dragons began with eight LDS women private messaging each other on Facebook. Co-founder Jill Hazard Rowe recalls that a woman in American Fork sought help for a student in a gay-straight alliance who was having issues. "She brought in a few of us to answer questions." They supported that student and the feed continued.
