  • Ensuring a much cozier near future

    Jan 2, 2019

    Nine people rush past icy puddles down the beach at Spring Canyon 12 hours into 2019 to take a “Coulee Polar Plunge” into Lake Roosevelt. The air temperature was about 33° F. The water temperature measured 42° with a thermometer brought by one of the plungers, but it definitely did not feel warmer. Five sane people, plus two photographers, and a Portuguese water dog also witnessed the “second annual” event, which nearly doubled in size this year. The dog remained dry. From the left, plungers...

    All the members of Public Schools Employees Local Union #1001 would like to personally thank all of you involved in our Stuff the Bus for school supplies campaign.

  • Reflection on buying a newspaper

    Jan 3, 2018

    My daughter called 20 years ago to chat. “What did you do today?” she asked. “Bought a newspaper,” I answered. “Um, yeah, OK?” she said. “No,” I said. “I mean we bought the newspaper, The Star.” When that revelation sunk in, it elicited considerably more excitement than when she’d thought I’d spent some change at a store for the day’s newspaper. Those two reactions pretty well sum up the nature of this business. We produce a common, expected product that doesn’t always drum up great excitement, but over the course of decades can make an impa...
