Prep football two-a-days: Orem

Football coaches often must manufacture motivation for their teams, but that won?t be the case this season for Orem coach Tyler Anderson.

During a Tigers practice at the end of last school year, sophomore Ben Smith collapsed from a condition that made his heart beat too fast. Anderson and other coaches administered CPR, and Smith was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery.

?

Orem Tigers

ASSIGNMENT ? Region 7

LAST YEAR ? 8-4 overall, 6-1 Region 8

KEY RETURNER ? Nolan Gray, sr., WR. Gray would be hard pressed to match the statistics he produced last season, especially with a new starting quarterback. But expect big things out of this D-I prospect.

PLAYER TO WATCH ? Sampson Saluone, jr., DE. The 6-foot-1, 280-pound Westlake transfer is going to be a beast rushing the passer, helping to alleviate some of the pressure from the Tigers? young secondary.

BIGGEST HOLE ? The Tigers lost three starters from the defensive backfield, and coach Anderson is worried about opponents taking advantage of his inexperienced corners and safeties.

NEED TO KNOW ? If you like offense, Orem is a team to watch. The Tigers run a spread-option and intend to throw the ball 60 percent of the time.

Smith is cleared to play football again just three months later, and he is back at practice battling for a spot in Orem?s depleted defensive backfield.

"It?s an inspiration to his teammates that he went through almost dying, and now he?s back out here," Anderson said. "I think our team?s kind of rallying around that. It?s been a good, positive thing that could have been a pretty bad thing."

Another positive thing for Orem is the return of an extremely talented receiver in 6-foot-4 senior Nolan Gray.

Gray caught 83 passes for 1,514 yards and 17 touchdowns last season. Anderson said he has interest from Utah, BYU, Utah State and Stanford and that more interest likely will come throughout the season.

As for the quarterback, the face might not be familiar but the name will be. Taylor Camp was Orem?s starter last year, but he graduated, leaving the job for his younger brother Tucker, who Anderson said is penciled in for now as the starter.

Study finds media messages describing paranormal investigators as 'scientific' makes people more likely to 'believe'

Study finds media messages describing paranormal investigators as 'scientific' makes people more likely to 'believe'

Thursday, October 25, 2012

The fourth installment of the Paranormal Activity films topped the box office last week. Television channel SyFy's hit show Ghost Hunters scares up big ratings, and has spawned copycat series on networks ranging from Biography to Animal Planet.

The omnipresence of paranormal entertainment piqued the interest of Paul Brewer, professor of communication, who wondered what makes viewers believe?or disbelieve? what they see on the screen.

His resulting study, recently published in the journal Science Communication, examines the influence of media messages about paranormal investigators on how people perceive the investigators' credibility. Brewer conducted an experiment asking participants to read one of four versions of a newspaper article. After reading the selected article participants filled out a questionnaire.

"It wasn't just any story about paranormal investigators that made people believe in ghosts and haunted houses," Brewer said, "it was a story about how they were scientific."

One version of the article described a paranormal investigator's "scientific" approach to his work, including his use of various instruments, items Brewer describes as "trappings of science." One specifically mentioned in the article is an electromagnetic field (EMF) detector, used to locate sources of electricity. Members of the group who read this article were much more likely to call the investigators scientific and credible, as well as to believe in the paranormal. Brewer said the findings could trouble paranormal skeptics.

"They might look at this and say, well. all it takes is to sprinkle some acronyms in there and wave around cool looking things that beep and suddenly people believe in ghosts and haunted houses."

Still, his findings do offer some solace to skeptics. Another version of the article in the study was identical to the "scientific" version until the end, where an extra paragraph was added. It quoted a professor debunking the investigators' expertise. That article's group was swayed by the opposing viewpoint and rated the investigators' credibility at levels below the first group.

"What the media can do, the media can take away," Brewer said.

Razor-clam dig approved for Oct. 27-30 | Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife

The second razor-clam dig of the fall season will get under way on evening tides at four ocean beaches Saturday (Oct. 27).

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) approved the dig after marine toxin tests on all four beaches confirmed the clams are safe to eat.

Twin Harbors beach will open for digging after noon on four consecutive days, Oct. 27-30. Three other beaches ? Long Beach, Copalis and Mocrocks ? will open for digging Oct. 27-28 after noon each day.

Digging days and evening low tides for beaches scheduled to open are:

?

  • Oct. 27, Saturday, 5:57 p.m., +0.2 ft., Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis, Mocrocks
  • Oct. 28, Sunday, 6:36 p.m., -0.1 ft., Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis, Mocrocks
  • Oct. 29, Monday, 7:12 p.m., -0.3, Twin Harbors
  • Oct. 30,?Tuesday, 7:46 p.m., -0.4, Twin Harbors

?

Dan Ayres, WDFW coastal shellfish manager,?recommends that diggers carry a lantern or strong flashlight during night digs. He also?said diggers heading to Copalis and Mocrocks should be aware of a traffic revision on eastbound U.S. Highway 101 in Hoquiam due to emergency work on the Simpson Avenue Bridge.

?This is the only route to those beaches, so people should allow extra travel time to make sure they arrive on time,? Ayres said. He advises diggers to check the Washington Department of Transportation website for more information at?http://goo.gl/hzoM1.

Ayres also reminds diggers that the limit for razor clams is 15 per day, and that diggers are required to keep the first 15 clams they dig. Each digger's clams must be kept in a separate container.

?Diggers caught returning clams can be cited for wastage,? Ayres said.

All diggers age 15 or older must have an applicable 2012-13 fishing license to harvest razor clams on any beach. Licenses, ranging from a three-day razor clam license to an annual combination fishing license, are available on WDFW?s website at?https://fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov and from license vendors around the state.

Information about beach locations and additional digs proposed in the months ahead is available on WDFW?s website at?http://goo.gl/ooxEO.
