Cucina received so much interest that the restaurant

• Letter: Why attack just the mares?

  26-11-2020 22:30
  
  I am appalled at the inhumanity of the Bureau of Land Management subjecting wild female horses to so-called surgical sterilization.If it must be done (and I am not convinced that it is), there are better ways to accomplish minimizing the population.Instead of attacking the mares, how about doing the males? This can be done more easily, quickly, safely and more cheaply.Or does this offend their male sense of machismo?Dia Taylor, OgdenSubmit a letter to the editor

• Their teeth fell out. Was it another COVID-19 consequence?

  26-11-2020 21:54
  
  Earlier this month, Farah Khemili popped a wintergreen breath mint in her mouth and noticed a strange sensation: a bottom tooth wiggling against her tongue.Khemili, 43, of Voorheesville, New York, had never lost an adult tooth. She touched the tooth to confirm it was loose, initially thinking the problem might be the mint. The next day, the tooth flew out of her mouth and into her hand. There was neither blood nor pain.Khemili survived a bout with COVID-19 this spring, and has joined an online s

• Letter: Authoritarian culture doesn’t help teens

  26-11-2020 20:30
  
  Utah doesn’t merely have a teen reform school problem. It has an underlying parenting problem that supports it, and is probably intractable.Who has not watched the iconic pop culture movie “Footloose” (1984) and not realized what an apt picture of Utah parenting culture it represents? Set in the Wasatch Front, it is the story of teens oppressed by an excessively authoritarian culture, fighting for the need to develop, inquire and express themselves on their own terms. In the mo
