Most newer concrete beams that hold up Utah highway bridges are around 145 feet long. But the Utah Department of Transportation is about to place six that are 40 percent longer — 203 feet — to help widen Interstate 15 in Lehi. They are longer than the iconic Cinderella’s castle in Walt Disney World (189 feet) is high, or the leaning tower of Pisa (185 feet). They also will be the third-longest single-component beams in the United States, slightly shorter than two in Orlando, Fla., and Seattle, said Lee Wegner, with Forterra Structural Precast, the West Valley City company that...

Colin Firth is a fine, versatile actor. He is undoubtedly the best Mr. Darcy in all the movies made of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice and is now set to play Avraham Stern, the intellectual and poet who became leader of the Jewish underground Fighters for the Freedom of Israel (LEHI), called the Stern Gang by the British. Michael Winterbottom, who produced the film (to be called “The Promise”) did much of the research at the Begin Center and has stated that it is based on the true story of two British police detectives, Thomas Wilkin and Geoffrey Morton, who...

Lehi » The Utah Attorney General's Office reportedly has launched an investigation into whether the Lehi Police Department covered up several alleged crimes over the past five years. KUTV News reports that the allegations come from the city's prosecutor, Dave Clark. Clark claims knowledge of eight cases -- ranging from theft and DUI to a hit-and-run crash -- that Lehi police purportedly chose to bury. Clark, the city's prosecutor for more than seven years, says he tried to handle his complaints internally, but the city's administration has done nothing. The City of Lehi is "where people who have committed crimes...

JERUSALEM – Teddy Kollek, the legendary mayor of Jerusalem and one of Israel's most re-elected politicians, ratted out fellow Jews to the British occupiers of pre-State Israel, even once trying to have former prime minister Menachem Begin arrested. The information was provided by recently declassified British intelligence documents held back from the public at the request of the Israeli government as long as Kollek was alive, prompting some here to wander whether other Israeli politicians currently living, such as former prime minister Shimon Peres, who worked closely with Kollek, were also moles against Jews. Kollek died three months ago. The...

Retiring 60 Minutes journalist Mike Wallace, on Mike Barnicle's WTTK/Boston radio show, sounded a lot like an Yasser Arafat mouthpiece. After re-gurgitating the usual anti-Israel atrocity propaganda, Wallace, in a comment that sticks in my craw, drew a moral equivalence between Palestinian suicide/mass murderers and Zionist patriots who fought the British in the period leading up to Israeli independence. The British called these Israeli freedom fighters "terrorists," yet, unlike Arab mass murderers today, they did not deliberately target innocent British or Arab civilians for murder. Barnicle responded, perhaps unconsciously, by indirectly unmasking Wallace with a discreet and indirect reference to...
