  • Jasey Colunga, machinist with the 530th Commodities Maintenance Squadron, leans on his most recently completed artwork at Hill Air Force Base. This is the single largest work of art Mr. Colunga has completed. The entire mural spans 170 feet by 35 feet, and is too wide to capture in a single photo. Drafts for the mural began with roadmaps from Texas to Utah representing the connection the unit has had with Texas in the past. Those drafts were tossed aside, however, and replaced with an all encompassing picture of Utah. The mural depicts southern Utah on the left and northern Utah on the right side. “The mural is really just to boost morale in our building,” said Mr. Colunga. “It turns our industrial workplace into an interesting shop that people remember.” Courtesy Photo

    Fitness should be child's play

    Play is an important part of childhood, but more and more it's happening in front of a TV or computer screen and not on the playground. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 18 percent of children are overweight, and obesity in children increases the more hours they watch television. "A lot of the problem is video games and
