Well, as time progresses, it’s always nice to have football in the forefront of our sporting calendar. Tonight, we start things off in the Canadian Football League as the Montreal Alouettes dismantled the Toronto Argonauts, 41-10, disrupting much of Toronto’s early momentum they’d gained this season. Leading the way for Montreal were Anthony Calvillo (30 of 36, 394 yards, 2 TD’s) and Avon Cobourne (231 rushing and receiving yards) while the Argos had no answers in silencing Montreal. For now, the Alouettes are, if nothing else, the East’s best. We shall see if they can parlay this early momentum into another Grey cup championship.

Meanwhile, with Arizona Cardinals training camp underway at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, Ariz., there are numerous questions to be addressed. Chief among them, of course, is Matt Leinart stepping in for Kurt Warner, the impetus of a passing tack that averaged 251 yards per game in 2009. If Leinart can show that he is the man for head coach Ken Whisenhunt during training camp, that can go a long way toward the Cardinals winning the NFC West for the third straight years. While the loss of Anquan Boldin hurts in the receiving corps, Arizona has plenty of talent at wideout, especially with the return of Larry Fitzgerald (97 rec, 1,092 yards, 13 TD’s last season) and Steve Breaston (55 rec, 712 yards, 3 TD’s). One thing that I’m quite sure of with the Cardinals is that ex-Brigham Young quarterback, Max Hall, will not make the team. Max, it’s time to try to break in with the Calgary Stampeders, although Henry Burris is pretty good. That’s all for now, thanks for reading.

(SALT LAKE CITY)-Most names, addresses and social security numbers on the infamous illegals list leaked to the public this month are fake, according to KUTV-Channel 2 in Salt Lake City. Workforce services sent all the social security numbers on the list to the social security administration in Baltimore to find out if the numbers were valid and upon further review, of the 36 social security numbers on the list, only two were legitimate. Utah Attorney General, Mark Shurtleff, says he will investigate social security numbers on the list, but stated there are also many illegal social security numbers not on the list. Workforce Services says federal regulations usually prevent any investigation of false social security numbers used by illegals. Federal prosecutors are investigating the two citizens who allegedly released the list and will not say whether they will investigate illegal numbers on the list or not.

(BOISE, Idaho)-The Air Force has chosen bases in Arizona, Florida, Utah and Vermont to serve as homes to the U.S. Air Force’s pricey new F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. Operational missions of the single-jets would go to Hill Air Force Base in Utah and the Burlington Air Guard Station in Vermont. For training, the Air Force is recommending Luke Air Force Base in Glendale, Ariz. The decision announced Thursday is a disappointment for seven bases passed over during this round of selections, including sites in Idaho, New Mexico, Florida and South Carolina. Wednesday, the Air Force also announced 59 F-35 jets would be stationed at Eglin Air Force Base in Eglin, Fla. Military officials say the selection of the bases as “preferred alternatives” is not yet cast in stone.

(PAGE, Ariz.)-Lakeshore Drive, near the Glen Canyon Recreational Area in Page, Ariz., will be closed Thursday for the third straight day for road construction, the National Park Service reported. Only houseboat launching operators will be permitted to use the section from the south entrance, accessible via U.S. Highway 89 to the 4-way stop at Wahweap Boulevard. Friday, Wahweap Boulevard will be closed from the north entrance off Highway 89 to Lakeshore Drive from 5:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. This closure does not apply to houseboat launching operators and drivers of other vehicles will be routed to the south end of Lakeshore Drive Friday.

(ST. GEORGE)-A request for a speedy trial hearing for Warren Jeffs was filed in Fifth District Court Tuesday by Walter F. Budgen, Jeffs’ attorney according to KCSG-TV in St. George. The Fifth District Court has scheduled a meeting for Wednesday August 18 at 9:00 a.m. at the St. George courthouse where Jeffs’ case will be heard again.

(SALT LAKE CITY)-Prosecutor Carlie Christensen has been appointed to an 120-day term as U.S. attorney for Utah. Christensen, who has served as acting attorney since Brett Tolman’s resignation last year, was appointed by Attorney General Eric Holder and sworn in by Chief U.S. District, Judge Tena Campbell. Christensen’s term is effective Friday. United States President Barack Obama could nominate and the U.S. Senate could confirm a new U.S. attorney for the state at any point during that term.

(COLORADO CITY Ariz.)-KTVX-Channel 4 in Salt Lake City reports that the FBI is taking significant interest in the arrest of a Colorado City, Ariz. couple by town marshals last week. July 20, Matt and Genevive Hainline were arrested on their own property. The marshals claimed to have a temporary restraining order signed by a local justice of the peace against the Hainlines and they were essentially forbidden from even entering their own backyard. The authorities went so far as to identify the Hainlines’ backyard and workshed by a separate address as the space appears to have subdivided the Hainlines’ property, creating a separate lot where no such thing exists. Although the Hainlines have roots in the community, they are not members of the predominant polygamous sect. Two years ago, they received an authorization of occupancy for the property from an administrator appointed by a Utah judge to oversee the UEP trust, which owns most of the land in the community. Other residents of the community complain that marshals are selective in adhering to the law and adhere to their religious leaders in all matters. Reportedly, the Hainlines and others who witnessed the event were interviewed by FBI agents in Kingman, Ariz., Mohave County’s county seat. The FBI will not confirm or comment on current investigations.

(COOKE CITY, Mont.)-Montana wildlife officials have captured a female grizzly and two of her three cubs in a campground near Yellowstone National Park where a man was killed and two others injured in a bear attack. Fish, Wildlife and Parks Warden Captain, Sam Sheppard, says the sow was captured in a culvert trap Wednesday evening and two of her three cubs were captured overnight. Thursday, Sheppard said officials are confident they captured the offending bear because she was caught at the same site. Sheppard described these attacks as “highly unusual” and “predatory,” as opposed to attacks in which a sow may be protecting her cubs from perceived threat. Officials stated the sow will be killed while state and federal wildlife officials will determine the cubs’ fate. Sheppard said it’s unlikely they’ll be returned to the wild.

(SALT LAKE CITY)-Utah State Parks and Recreation officials are reminding people to take safety precautions while enjoying the outdoors. The agency says there have been six boating fatalities in the state this year and 10 people have died in off-highway vehicle accidents. Officials admonish people to wear lifejackets when on or near the water and put helmets on when riding ATVs.

(ST. GEORGE)-Washington County Sheriff, Kirk Smith, is blasting the federal 287 g program which gives local police immigration enforcement powers. Smith said he’s frustrated that many arrestees flagged for immigration violations at his jail are refused by Immigration and Customs Enforcement due to a lack of money. Smith couldn’t say what the “cutoff” line is for a serious enough offense. Two deputies at the county jail work full-time to screen and interview those who have been booked. Smith also stated the process of flagging one person, filling out the paperwork and getting ICE involved takes about an hour and a half. Smith says more leadership needs to be shown from the federal government on immigration and that he has recently seen an “outflow” of illegal immigrants due to the poor economy. Smith cited the troubled construction sector has been a significant contributor to the trend.

(SALT LAKE CITY)-Some Utah lawmakers say the federal ruling blocking some provisions of Arizona’s new immigration law will not stop them from bringing a similar bill to Utah. The bill presented in Utah will not be an exact replica of Arizona’s law but Herriman Representative, Carl Wimmer, says certain portions should be integrated in Utah. Wimmer says Utah officers should be allowed to detain someone they know to be in the country illegally until investigators can take over. Wimmer also said in-state tuition for illegal immigrants should be repealed. Nevertheless, opponents of the bill are ecstatic, such as Archie Archuleta of the Coalition of La Raza who says certain portions of Arizona’s bill are unconstitutional.
