"Ludic" a word denoting aimless playfulness is an important one for Solange Serquis. "I like to be as playful as possible in the outdoors," said the landscape architect who was trained in Argentina and Santa Fe. The concept came up in a discussion about one of her focus points when planning residential landscape projects. In New Mexico the outdoor areas are amazing. In Buenos Aires its very hot and humid in the summer and people don't want to be outside. But here its beautiful and I like doing water features with recirculated water. In my own garden I did a river feature with black stones. My kids love to play in it and adults like to put their feet in.

Water, shade, and confluence point makes everything happen and you can sit there and enjoy. Then plants. I especially love red feathergrass. I like to use native plants so you will get butterflies and birds. If you love birds, do native plants.

The Utah House of Representatives votes on and passes SB296 Wednesday, March 11, 2015, anti-discrimination bill.

Scott G Winterton, Deseret News

Happy Easter! Spring is busting out all over with flowers and tree blossoms. Not to be outdone, the political landscape continues to be colorful.

Indianas religious freedom law created a huge global backlash, while Utah legislation establishing both religious freedom and discrimination prohibitions continues to win national praise. Whats the difference?

Pignanelli: "Every human benefit and enjoyment, every virtue, and every prudent act is founded on compromise and barter." Edmund Burke

The revered Utah law is the political equivalent of our beloved "funeral potatoes." This casserole (as with the legislation) is prepared in the nurturing environment of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by conscientious cooks (legislative sponsors) who want to please as many people as possible. This dish correctly balances the basic ingredients of potatoes, butter, milk, cheese and corn flakes (protections for religious organizations, establishment of rights based on sexual orientation, clarifications of standing under the law, etc.) without one overpowering any of the others. Granted, food purists grouch about this carb-loaded fare (as left- and right-wing extremists hate the anti-discrimination bill), yet even a spoonful is creamy and satisfying to the average person. (I hope my wake has generous servings of the victual, along with wine, for mourners.)

The Utah civil and religious rights legislation reflects what is best and greatest about our local culture: simple, frugal, practical, compassionate, visionary and moderate. Unlike in the other states, our leaders consulted the LDS Church, legal experts and LGBT organizations. These individuals proudly celebrated the result with a signing ceremony. Utah succeeded in this important endeavor because we approached it as we do everything from cooking to world-renowned Olympics.

I recommend we share funeral potato recipes with those poor souls in Indiana and Arkansas.

Webb: Indianas Legislature and governor made a serious mistake by not including nondiscrimination provisions in their religious freedom law. Indiana was politically tone-deaf and is now the whipping boy of the political-correctness police. Fair-minded commentators and legal experts say the Indiana law is not a license to discriminate. Its not as nefarious as the gay-rights lobby and other critics claim. It was a good-faith attempt to establish a legal framework for religious freedom something thats needed across the country.

A GOLD Coast family is set to reclaim a parcel of land 75 years after it was abandoned and 75 years of outstanding rates are likely to be waived.

The McClymont family will again own a remote Currumbin Valley 0.74ha block after the Gold Coast City Council recognised them as descendants of its rightful owner, George Bertram McClymont, who died in 1940.

50 GOLD COAST DISHES YOU MUST TRY

The Gold Coast Bulletin revealed last September that the council had moved to acquire 1799 Currumbin Creek Rd and declare it parkland.

Following the Bulletins story, some of Mr McClymonts surviving nine grandchildren came forward and expressed an interest in regaining ownership of the block.

Last week the council terminated its plan to resume the land, clearing the way for the ownership to be recognised by the courts.

City finance boss William Owen-Jones said it was unlikely the McClymont family would have to pay the 75 years of outstanding rates.

There was an objection by the McClymont family, which is great, and in order to make their claim valid they need to do some estate work with the Supreme Court and make a declaration, he said.
