Mike Brown: Miss Utah!!!
A few weeks ago, I had the distinct pleasure of interviewing the current Miss Utah. The last time I interacted with a pageant queen was when I was asked to show a former Miss Utah how to skateboard on the live morning local newscast. Needless to say, she ended up eating street on live TV
Gallery Stroll: Hot City, Sizzling Art
I am far from a scientist—I never have and probably never will be able to recite the periodic table. Instead, I tend to focus my inquisitiveness on human nature and the study of sociology. I find it particularly interesting how people react to summer. All day, the sun beats down, transferring its energy in the

Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Pulverizer Power

Review: Jurassic World
It’s hard to believe that it’s been exactly 22 years since the original Jurassic Park attempted to open its doors, but that’s where Jurassic World begins. Now that John Hammond’s idea has become a reality and Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) is doing everything she can to run a successful theme park, the notion of creating new dinosaur breeds by splicing various DNA strands together is the latest attraction. … read more
Review: Rat Queens – Volume Two
It’s refreshing to read a series that treats equally with the fantastical stories of a well-run Dungeons & Dragons game and genuinely touching personal backstories. The Rat Queens are a team of rough-and-tumble adventurers-for-hire who drink heavily and live as large as they can in the little city of Palisade. … read more
