David Entwistle

David Entwistle, CEO of U Hospital and Clinics, is on the road to recovery.

Entwistle, 40, was brought to his hospital in critical condition almost two weeks ago. He'd sustained serious injuries on the left side of his head after falling off his bicycle at a triathlon in Tooele.

But as of Monday morning, he's been transferred from the intensive care unit to the rehabilitation center and is listed in good condition, U Healthcare spokesman Christopher Nelson said.

Entwistle is expected to make a full recovery at the hospital he's led since 2007.

His family could not be reached for comment.

I'm glad our CEO is "hard-headed" enough to have survived and making recovery on this!!! Really great news.

LDS group petitions to church

Say No, you are making an assumption and a very big one, that these people were excommunicated from the church. I signed that petition, and I left the church on my own accord. I am a former LDS missionary and served a succesful and honorable mission. The church didn't ask me to leave or even reprimand me, as a matter of fact when I told them I was gay and told them that I wanted to remove my name, they asked me to reconsider. But I am happier for the fact. I learned a lot of good things and had a lot of good experiences as a member of the church, but it's no longer for me. And while I signed the petiition because there are others out there that still want membership in the church but have had the families turn their backs on them due to teachings of the church (not teachings of the Gospel, which are two different things entirely), I do not care what the church thinks about me and my husband and our family. My relationship is with God and no one can tell me how to have that or tell Him how it should be. It's man that tells us how God will and should act towards us. I put my faith and trust in God, and no man or religion will tell me how God looks and acts. And by the way, my spirituality is real and think it's rather audacious to try and say these people have fake spirituality.

Change of pace

Bison Richard hasn't watched a single game this season - so I guess he's qualified to call fans who don't like Cain's performance thus far, "fair weather". Cain sucks, that is a fact. The guy is slow getting the ball out, and never looks down his receivers. If you can't do that, you can't be a QB. Plus at 5'9 - yes I said 5'9, cause I've walked next to him and I am taller than him, (I'm 5'10 barely), he cannot see over the O-line. Sorry but we would have lost that Cowboys game with him at QB.
In the end, let the people who make their living make the decisions - Coach Whitt and the offensive staff. If Coach Whitt could see the Utes needed a change then they NEEDED A CHANGE. Sorry Cain, ya had your chance.
