Prairie Dog Plan Takes Effect May 8th CEDAR CITY – A plan that will guide the management of Utah prairie dogs—on nonfederal land in southwestern Utah—goes into effect May 8.

Since the inception of the Endangered Species Act in 1973, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has managed Utah prairie dogs, a species found only in southwestern Utah.

Originally listed as “endangered” under the act, Utah prairie dogs were down-listed to “threatened” in 1984. Because the animal is federally listed, the federal government has had management authority over the population and its habitat. Since more than 70 percent of the population lives on non-federal land (i.e. state and county land, and private property), the management strategy has created controversy in southern Utah for more than 40 years.

In November 2014, a lawsuit initiated by People for the

their property—to use the land as they wish.

“The new plan, which goes into effect on May 8th, addresses issues that people have when it comes to health, safety and welfare,” Kavalunas says.

“It also makes removing prairie dogs from developable lands easier. And it frees up many agricultural and range lands for use too.”

The plan includes an acceleration in the non-lethal removal of prairie dogs from private lands and the removal of buffer zones around existing colonies. “Just the removal of the buffer zones alone will free up more than 50,000 acres in Iron County,” he says.

The plan will also help Utah prairie dogs and speed their recovery.

“Our goal is to increase the number of Utah prairie dogs on federal lands, to the point that the animal can be removed Mike and Dixie Burbidge, owners of the Stone Hearth Grille, with chef Kortney Ahlstrom and Front of the House Manager Trey Schrader, on the restaurant's opening night for the season.

Utah Division of Wildlife Resources

Utah prairie dogs, a federally protected species, are found only in southern Utah. A new plan is aimed to help both prairie dog populations and property owners.

Ethical Treatment of Property Owners changed that. Since then the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) has assumed the responsibility to manage Utah prairie dogs on non-federal lands. The DWR, along with county officials and private landowners, has been putting together a management plan to try to accelerate the removal of the Utah prairie dog from the endangered species list. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will continue managing the species on Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Forest Service and other federal properties.

Adam Kavalunas, Utah prairie dog biologist for the DWR, says the plan should make it easier for landowners—who have prairie dogs on

from the Endangered Species list within 5 to 10 years,” Kavalunas says. “As people read through the new plan, and get acquainted with the changes, I think they’ll agree that this goal is within reach.”

You can review a copy of the plan—which is now final— at http://1.usa.gov/1bP5qrR. If you have questions about the plan, call the DWR’s Southern Region office at 435865-6100. You can also visit the office at 1470 N. Airport Road in Cedar City.

GSENM Advisory Committee Seeks Members KANAB - The Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument (GSENM) in Utah announced it is seeking public nominations for five open positions on its 15-member Monument Advisory Committee (MAC), which provides advice and recommendation to GSENM on science issues and the achievement of GSENM Plan objectives. Nominations are due into GSENM by close of business on May 6, 2015..

The GSENM-MAC, composed of citizens chosen for their expertise in land use planning and the management of the landers under BLM management in GSENM.

“The MAC is integral to the management of the Monument,” said Monument Manager Cindy Staszak, “The committee’s diversity – scientists, elected officials, educators, business and environmental leaders – provides me and my staff with a broader insight into issues impacting the Monument and the surrounding communities; and in effect, enhances our ability to manage the Monument lands for multiple uses where appropriate, as an outdoor laboratory for scientific research, all Advisory Committee Cont'd on page 2

REGIONAL WEATHER FORECAST FOR SOME BUT NOT ALL REGIONS REPRESENTED IN OUR NEWSPAPER COVERAGE AREA

THURS. APR. 9 - WED. APR. 15 DITTO. It looks like this week might be a lot like last week.

Sunny to mostly sunny, highs in low-mid 60s all week (warmer toward the end of the week) but windy, so it will feel chillier. Lows hovering around freezing. The fruit trees are not out of the woods, yet.

TROPIC – A growing number of excellent restaurants are showing up in the “sticks” of Garfield County, and Tropic’s Stone Hearth Grille, now opening for the start of their second season, is already showing the ability to offer one of the best dining experiences in southern Utah.

Situated off a dirt road in the P-J on the south side of Tropic Town, the up-plateau location of the restaurant, with its ample windows in the main dining room as well as a spacious outdoor deck dining section, presents a spectacular view of Powell Point, offering diners what is possibly the most brilliant scenery of any restaurant in the area.

But even if on a given evening the deck is too chilly for sitting outside and your spot at the table is with your back to the window, chances are you’ll find much to enjoy.

Last week a pre-opening dinner was offered to get the kitchen and dining room staff warmed up for the season, and I was lucky enough to attend.

My dinner companion and I started our meal by sharing the Fresh Spinach Artichoke Dip served with Toasted Artisan Bread, which my companion noted was “delightfully decadent.” Our waiter, Michael, (who is from New Jersey but just arrived to Tropic from Bolivia or some other southern-world region only about

two weeks ago), was well-prepared and versed in each of the course offerings and helped us through our choices. For an entrée we both decided to go for the Salmon on a Red Quinoa Bed with a Lemon-White Wine Sauce which was beautifully arranged with a topping of asparagus and was very nicely done.

For dessert we ordered the Chocolate Truffles (offered with port wine, if desired) which included cinnamon milk chocolate, salted caramel and raspberry truffles made by local chocolatier Wendy Hill. Ms. Hill prepares not just the chocolates but each of the restaurant’s desserts which includes selections like Orange

and White Chocolate Mousse with Balsamic Vinaigrette Reduction in a Cookie Cup, Lemon Cream Cake and Cinnamon Roll Bread Pudding.

One would never know that restaurant owners Dixie and Mike Burbidge, prior to this venture, have never run a restaurant, and that the idea of moving to the area in from Salt Lake City and opening their B&B, the adjoining Stone Canyon Inn, was the brainchild of their kids.

“When our kids were in high school this area was our favorite place to come and hike, in around the Grand Stone Hearth Grille Cont'd on page 2

Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area Projects MT. PLEASANT - The Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area (MPNHA) is in the beginning stages of two major projects, both in Sanpete County, Utah. The MPNHA has received funding to develop the Mormon Pioneer Heritage Institute (MPHI) in conjunction with Snow College in Ephraim. The second project is an “interpretive center” in cooperating with the Mormon Pioneer Heritage Gardens in Manti, located at the base of the Manti LDS Temple.

The purpose of both of these projects, as set forth in the MPNHA’s mission, is so people can “experience one of the most fascinating stories of the settlement of the West, the colonization story of the Mormon pioneers.”

Monte Bona, director of the MPNHA, said recently, “The ultimate goal of the MPNHA is to have the interpretive center in Manti, in conjunction with the Mormon Pioneer Heritage Institute at Snow College, serve as the major entities telling the overarching and compelling story of Mormon pioneer colonization.”

The MPNHA was cre-

ated in 2006 by Congress to preserve, interpret, promote and enhance Utah’s pioneer heritage in central and southern Utah. The MPHI started to take shape after it was included in the management plan the MPNHA developed with the National Park Service. The plan was approved by the Secretary of the Interior in 2010.

The next year, the Utah State Board of Regents approved basing the institute at Snow College.

The current president of Snow College, Gary Carlston, along with Rosie Connor (a new board member of MPNHA and a new member of the Alliance for National Heritage Areas), are working “to bring the Mormon Pioneer Heritage Institute to fruition,” Bona said.

Connor said the institute is “really in its infancy,” but she believes “it will end up being something beautiful for the community.” The MPNHA made an initial grant of $75,408 to the MPHI. The FY 2105 task plan with the National Park Service inHeritage Area Projects Cont'd on page 3

The Manti LDS Temple is seen in the reflection pool of the Mormon Pioneer Heritage Gardens, which were dedicated in 2012. The Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area has provided initial funding for an interpretive center at the gardens. The center will be the key site within the heritage area for telling the Mormon pioneer story.

Robbers Roost and Entrada

In response to questions that some of you have asked about the future of the Entrada Institute and Robbers Roost Bookstore, the Scholl family, owners of the business; and Carol Gnade, president of the Entrada Institute, wanted to provide you with the following explanation.

As some of you might have heard already, after 18 alwayseventful years, Robbers Roost will not be opening this year. It was a tough decision, but operating a business is a difficult enterprise. In this instance, that difficulty was compounded because the family members are not in Torrey full time. Ultimately, this led the Scholls to make the tough decision to close a beloved but time-consuming endeavor. There was surprisingly little drama involved in the decision — only a host of good memories and gratitude to the dedicated staff, loyal customers, and fellow business owners in Wayne County, who know first-hand how tough it is to operate a successful business with such a short season. The family especially wants to thank its amazing staff and managers, all of whom provided extraordinary service.

The other question that many of you have asked is what the closure of Robbers Roost means for Entrada. The answer is that there will be very few visible changes. The Saturday Sunset Series events will continue to be held at Robbers Roost, as will many of the institute’s signature events, including the Cowboy Poetry and Music Gathering, parts of Art and the Park, the Youth Music Festival, and the Women’s Music Festival. The Entrada Institute’s float will be back in the Apple Days Parade again this year (assuming we can get it running!), and there will continue to be regular concerts on the outdoor stage. In short, very little will change regarding the Entrada Institute, despite the fact that the bookstore will no longer be operating.

Also, regarding Entrada, many of you have asked about our capital campaign and long-range plans to move into the space next door to Robbers Roost, which Entrada was able to purchase last year, thanks to a low-interest loan from a very generous supporter. Those plans continue to move ahead (we’ll be happy to show any of you the architectural renderings of the grounds, the new stage, and other exciting details). But even after Entrada moves into its new home, the Scholl family and the Entrada board will continue to work closely with one another to take advantage of the opportunities to collaborate on programs and special events designed to enrich the cultural and artistic lives of Wayne County residents, drive economic development, and increase the understanding and appreciation of this spectacular area that we all love.

If you have questions or would like to discuss any of the above, feel free to call or email any of us. We would be happy to talk with you.

Staircase, even before it was a monument,” says Dixie Burbidge. “The kids decided it would be a fantastic place to live and to run a business.

We found 80 acres in Tropic when our youngest child was in high school, and in summer of 2000 we built the bed and breakfast.”

“Then all our kids grew up and got married and moved elsewhere,” she laughed.

Burbidge says that after receiving many, many requests from guests for a fine dining restaurant in the area, they found a chef that helped them convert the inn into a restaurant in May of 2014.

“This year,” she added, “we have a great new chef working with us, Kortney Ahlstrom. Everything is made from scratch, all our ingredients are all natural, and we offer a fine wine list,” she said.

Burbidge said that their menu offers similar selections to last year, but they have changed it up a bit. “We still offer three steaks with three different sauces that we can put on top of those.” She added that they regularly feature a vegetarian French Onion Soup made from scratch with their own stock. Other signature dishes include Wild Macadamia Encrusted Mahi Mahi, and a Grilled Pork Cutlet with Advisory Committee Cont'd from page 1

This year, the Burbidges remodeled the Stone Hearth Grille’s dining room, adding more tables and more tables with views. On warm evenings, diners can enjoy deck seating above the koi pond (which Mike Burbidge claims contains twenty, two-foot koi—although on our early April evening at the restaurant it was chilly and we think they were all at the bottom of the pond, staying warm).

The restaurant does offer a locals discount and welcomes parties for family events, anniversaries and birthdays.

Alluding to the challenges of learning to run a restaurant, Dixie Burbidge joked lightheartedly. “It’s all new—it’s been a real learning experience but you learn to love it—maybe not today, but tomorrow. But we have a really professional, loyal staff who are committed to making this restaurant a success. We feel like we are meant to be here,” she said.

The Stone Hearth Grille is located at 1380 West Stone Canyon Lane off of Bryce Way in Tropic (go past the high school and follow the signs).

Service and the National Park Foundation, Find Your Park is a public awareness and education campaign celebrating the milestone centennial anniversary of the National Park Service in 2016 and setting the stage for its second century of service.

Find Your Park invites the public to see that a national park can be more than a place -- it can be a feeling, a state of mind, or a sense of American pride. Beyond vast landscapes, the campaign highlights historical, urban, and cultural parks, as well as the National Park Service programs that protect, preserve and share nature, culture, and history in communities nationwide.

“Find Your Park” is also the theme for this year’s National Park Week, April 18 – 26. Entrance fees will be waived on April 18 and 19. At Capitol Reef National Park, join ranger-led talks and walks.

A Junior Geologist children’s hike will take place on April 18 – National Junior Ranger Day. “Spring is a great time of year to visit,” says Superintendent Leah McGinnis. “Whether you have a couple of days, a day or even a few hours there is so much to see and do. Come and find your park at Capitol Reef National Park.”

Affordable Care Act and Tax Season 5 Tips for Taxfilers WASHINGTON DC This year’s tax season is the first time tax filers will be asked to provide basic information regarding their health coverage on their tax returns.

Here’s what taxpayers need to know: 1. Most people just need to check a box: Most tax filers – about 75 percent – will just need to check a box when they file their taxes to indicate that that everyone in their household had coverage for all of 2014. This applies to people who had health coverage through their employer, Medicare, Medicaid, among other sources.

2. If you had Marketplace coverage, you should have your Form 1095-A: Last year, millions of Americans used advance payments of tax credits to help lower the cost of their monthly health insurance premiums. Now that tax season is here, these individuals will need to ensure they received the correct amount of financial assistance when they file their tax returns. People with Marketplace coverage should have received an important statement in the mail from the Marketplace called a Form 1095-A. If you’re still waiting for your 1095-A Form to arrive, check your marketplace account - most forms are available online. You can also call the Marketplace Call Center at 1-800-318-2596.

3. If you didn’t have health coverage, use the exemption tool: While those

who can afford health coverage but chose not to enroll may have to pay a fee, people who couldn’t afford coverage or met other conditions can receive an exemption. A tool is available on HealthCare.gov can help people who didn’t have insurance last year understand if they might qualify for an exemption 4. If you have to pay the fee, consider signing up for coverage through the Special Enrollment Period. Tax filers who have to pay the fee and who were unaware or did not understand the requirement to enroll in coverage can take advantage of an opportunity to purchase health insurance coverage through a special enrollment period. If tax filers do not purchase coverage for the remainder of 2015 during this special enrollment period (March 15-April 30), they will risk having to pay the fee again next year for the entire year when they file their 2015 income taxes.

5.Help is available. Tax filers with questions about exemptions, the fee, the Special Enrollment Period, or Marketplace tax statements should contact the Marketplace Call Center. The call center is open all day, every day at 1-800318-2596. Additional resources and information for tax filers is also available www. healthcare.gov/taxes.

April 9, 2015 Heritage Area Projects Cont'd from page 1

cludes another $98,670.

The MPHI will undertake and implement projects on behalf of and in collaboration with the MPNHA. All projects will be reviewed and approved by the board of directors for the Utah Heritage Highway 89 Alliance, the nonprofit advisory group to the MPHNA, for compliance with the MPNHA management plan.

Projects assigned to this task agreement include developing interpretive kiosks and related materials for the Clarion project (an effort to tell the story of a turn-of-the-century Jewish agricultural settlement in Sanpete County), conducting traditional building skills workshops to promote the preservation of buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places, preparing and implementing programs that will assist local businesses in producing and marketing heritage tourism, and engaging in tourism programs in the areas of living history, performance, public art and agritourism.

The other major MPNHA project, the interpretive center in Manti near the LDS Temple, is also a work in progress. Bona says this interpre-

tive center is one of three key interpretive centers that are part of the MPNHA management plan. The others are in Escalante (Hole in the Rock) and Marysvale (Big Rock Candy Mountain).

Efforts toward an interpretive center in Manti took a large step forward after the site where the interpretive center is to be located (the Mormon Pioneer Heritage Gardens) was dedicated in June 2012.

The MPNHA helped provide funding for the Pioneer Heritage Gardens, “in anticipation that there would be an interpretive center on the site—a high-quality entity that would tell the story of the Mormons,” Bona says.

Initially, Bona says, the interpretive center will consist of kiosks and placards with written information about the Mormon pioneers.

A long-term vision is partnering with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to build a visitor’s center for the Manti Temple that could include exhibits about pioneer history and have guides on staff. The MPNHA has granted $240,000 (a $50,000 grant in funding from the NPS and $190,000 through a special Congressional appropriation) to the Pioneer Heritage Gar-

den and interpretive center.

In addition to the two major projects, the MPNHA has been moving forward on an array of projects. In FY 2014, the heritage area received $300,000 in funding.

Of 20 projects listed in the management plan approved at the onset of operations, the FY 2014 annual report lists eight as “complete” and the rest as “ongoing.”

The Mormon Pioneer Heritage Area (MPNHA) is a federally designated area of central and southern Utah running along the beautiful and historic U.S. Highway 89—including the All-American Road Utah State Route 12, and Capitol Reef Scenic Byway Utah State Route 24, which both intersect with U.S. 89 and together form the MPNHA’s Boulder Loop. The area includes the counties of Sanpete, Sevier, Piute, Wayne, Garfield and Kane.

The Utah Heritage Highway 89 Alliance is the local coordinating entity of the MPNHA and receives annual funding from the National Park Service. Its purpose is to preserve, tell and interpret the stories, history and heritage of the area, and to promote its culture and value.

Dixie Regional Hosts Happiness Seminar ST. GEORGE - Dixie Regional Medical Center will host a free seminar for the public on April 16 at 7 p.m. in the Select Health Auditorium at 1424 E. Foremaster Drive.

The topic is “Happiness — A gift or a choice?” and the discussion will be led by well-

Dr. Matt Eschler known, local marriage and family counselor, Dr. Matt Eschler. Light refreshments will follow.

The seminar will address the source of happiness and whether being born rich, waking up beautiful, or avoiding stress are important to lifelong happiness and bliss. Research seems to fly against the notion of circumstance determining happiness, instead pointing to personality, beliefs, and habitual thoughts generating endur-

ing happiness.

“Being happy is more about practice than it is about changing your circumstance,” said Dr. Eschler. “The exciting thing about this is everyone can do it. You only need some simple principled steps to command happiness into your life that is significant and enduring.”

Dr. Eschler is the clinical director of A Southern Utah Counseling Experience, and has built a strong reputation through his highly recommended work. He specializes in coaching and raising children, marriage enrichment, addictions, and life skills. He has garnered recognition hosting a local call-in radio show where he offered advice and strategies to live a more satisfying and real life.

Congratulation to all of the Bob Cat Players that made the SLC Tribune All State Girls Basketball Team. The Tribune changed their system to only picking 5 players for the first and second teams. Also they picked the five best players in State for a team regardless of the school. Darri Frandsen was one of those honored on this team. Darri was the key to the Bobcats second straight State Championship and a 54 game winning streak. Darri had a 17 pt. average, 13 rebounds and 3.5 steals per game. Whittni Orton was also selected to the 1A first team. Whittni shattered her last year steal record. Taylor Bennett, Chesney Campbell and Catania Holman all made the 2nd team.

On the boys side Trey Barney made the first team on the 1A team. Trey was the only Sophomore to make the team, personally I didn’t see anyone

Wills, Trusts, and More Abusive Trusts

by Jeffery J. McKenna

Can a trust be too good to be true? The simple answer is yes.

Can a trust reduce or eliminate income or self-employment tax? Can a trust create the opportunity to take deductions for personal expenses paid by the trust? Can the use of a trust allow someone to take depreciation deductions on an owner’s personal residence and furnishings? The simple answer to the above questions is no.

Trusts that attempt to achieve the above are just “to good to be true.”

In fact, the IRS has characterized such trusts as “Abusive Trusts.” In recent years, the IRS has become very aggressive in its treatment of abusive trusts.

Abusive trusts are called many different names. Some of the more common names are “Constitutional Trusts,” “Pure Equity Trusts,” “Common Law Trusts,” or “Common Law Trust Organizations.” There have been a number of other names used to market these trusts as well.

Generally, the trust is established when the trustee issues units in the trust to the settlor (person forming the trust). The trustee, someone other than the settlor, has absolute discretion over making any distributions of income or principal back to the settlor.

Promoters claim that the settlor is no longer income taxable on the income and that both gift and estate taxes are avoided. Needless to say, the IRS does not share the same belief.

The IRS has recently

undertaken a national coordinated strategy to address fraudulent trust schemes. IRS Public Announcement Notice 97-24 warns taxpayers to avoid fraudulent trust schemes that advertise bogus tax benefits.

In the public notice, the IRS warns that these abusive trust arrangements will not produce the tax benefits advertised by their promoters; that the IRS is actively examining them and that in some circumstances, taxpayers who participate in them may be subject to civil and/or criminal penalties. IRS Notice 97-24 can be found on the Internet at www.irs.ustreas.gov.

It must be noted that the IRS has specifically distinguished the “abusive trusts” explained in this article with legitimate trusts used in estate planning and charitable giving. The Internal Revenue Code provides numerous provisions for the use of trusts for minimizing taxes in an estate planning and charitable giving context. In all IRS publications regarding abusive trusts, the IRS distinguishes between abusive trusts and legitimate trusts.

Hopefully, by writing this article, those who have un-

tHe lAuGhiNg Hot Coffee pOiNt!!

A diner was agitated that the waiter had brought him no spoon with his coffee.

"This coffee," he said loud enough for most of the other patrons to hear, "is going to be pretty hot to stir with my fingers."

The waiter reddened, made a hasty retreat to the kitchen and returned shortly with another cup of coffee.

"This one is much cooler, sir," he beamed.

Recycling Bin

I was visiting my daughter, a successful young professional, when I noticed half a piece of French bread in its original wrapper in her recycling bin.

When I told her that she shouldn't put bread in the recycling bin, she said, "Why not? It tastes like cardboard!"

Marriage Secret

When I asked a friend the secret to his 52 years of marriage, he replied, "We never go to sleep angry."

"That's a great philosophy," I noted.

"Yes. And the longest we've been awake so far is five days."

The Trappers Stove

An engineer, a psychologist, and a theologian were hunting in the wilderness of northern Canada.

Suddenly, the temperature dropped and a furious snowstorm was upon them. They came across an isolated cabin, far removed from any town. The hunters had heard that the locals in the area were quite hospitable, so they knocked on the door to ask permission to rest.

No one answered their knocks, but they discovered the cabin was unlocked and they entered. It was a simple place ...

2 rooms with a minimum of furniture and household equipment. Nothing was unusual about the cabin except the stove. It was large, pot-bellied, and made of cast-iron. What was strange about it was its location ... it was suspended in midair by wires attached to the ceiling beams.

"Fascinating," said the psychologist. "It is obvious that this lonely trapper, isolated from humanity, has elevated this stove so that he can curl up under it and vicariously experience a return to the womb."

"Nonsense!" replied the engineer. "The man is practicing the laws of thermodynamics. By elevating his stove, he has discovered a way to distribute heat more evenly throughout the cabin."

"With all due respect," interrupted the theologian, "I'm sure that hanging his stove from the ceiling has religious meaning.

Fire LIFTED UP has been a religious symbol for centuries."

The three debated the point for several hours without resolving the issue. When the trapper finally returned, they immediately asked him why he had hung his heavy pot-bellied stove from the ceiling.

His answer was succinct. "Had plenty of wire, not much stove pipe."

FYI PANGUITCH

OBITUARIES Bea Reynolds

CANNONVILLE - On April 3, 2015, in Panguitch, Bea Dutton Reynolds, 82, quietly moved forward in her eternal progression as she left mortality to be with her waiting husband, cherished parents, and other dearly loved individuals. During this tender moment Bea left behind her three sons and two cherished daughters.

Bea, also known as "Tiny", was born in Cannonville, August 26, 1932 to Kendall and Beatrice Henderson Dutton. She joined her brother, Budd, in the Dutton family and was later followed by sisters: Evelyn, Nola, Karen, Merle; as well as brothers: Kendall, Karl, and Larry.

Bea married Lark Reynolds from Escalante, December 23, 1950 in Fredonia, Arizona. Just short of 14 years later Lark and Bea forever changed their family by being sealed in the Manti LDS Temple. Lark and Bea watched and experienced together the growth of their family: Wayne (Kathy) Reynolds, Nick (Jewell) Reynolds, Elaine (Kay, deceased) Shakespeare, Susan Reynolds, and Cliff (RoAnne) Reynolds, 24 grandchildren and 28 great-grandchildren.

E x c e p t for short stays in Cedar City, Central Valley, and Kanab, Bea spent most of her life living in her beloved Cannonville. She loved this small community with its red rocks and white hills and now her mortal remains will be placed beside Lark, who preceded her on their united eternal journey on January 26, 2002.

Bea lived a quiet life, but it was a life working to bless her family and others, one full of love. She tenderly remembered playing with her cherished sisters and working in family responsibilities such as leading the family cow along the red dirt roads of Cannonville to the family home for milking. She was sad when that loved family cow was gone and somewhat saddened as those red dirt roads were paved. She found great delight when her kerosene lamp was replaced by a light bulb and later learned to enjoy telephones even though she struggled to keep her children from listening into conversations on the party lines.

Bea hated to personally drive a car, and rarely did, but she wept with excitement as sons, and grandchildren, stepped off airplanes while returning from locations throughout the world where they had been sharing the same gospel messages she loved in Cannonville.

Three years ago incapacitating physical trials forced Bea to leave Cannonville and spend them in the tender care of angels at the Panguitch Care Center. This time allowed her to continue to teach and share her life with her children. Though these years were hard, she discovered great blessings and when she slipped away, she left her family in peace.

Funeral services will be held Friday, April 10, 2015 at 1:00 p.m. in the Cannonville Ward Chapel, where friends may call from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Burial will be in the Cannonville Cemetery.

BIRTHDAYS Patricia Sorensen 90th

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com The tradition of the Easter Egg Hunt continued on for the 20th year. That tradition is that it is always the coldest day of the year and with the warm weather we have had this year, the cold really showed its ugly head. The Easter Bunny really got frost bitten this year, but with all of his good help, it came off really well. There was more candy and prizes this year than ever before, many thanks to the City, Joes’ Market and all of those who put in your change in the jars. Pat would like to thank all those that came out in the cold to help out. Also the parents and grandparents that braved the elements to bring all of kids, that makes this event such a fun time.

Ryan Houston’s mighty Debate team ran away from the competition this year at State. PHS’s best won thirteen of the twenty medals that were awarded. The five Gold Medal winners were Morgan Barney, Makoy Dodds, Dason Houston, Slater Mathews and Janzen Orton. Like any of the event that the kids compete in, it takes a lot of hard work and many hours on behalf of their advisors. With results like these, Mr. Houston can take a lot of satisfaction in knowing that his efforts have paid off in a big way. This is the third year in a row that the Bobcats have came home winners and they have owned the trophy five of the last seven years. In Region Debate the Cats have won that 18 years in row.

This week the Drama team will be going to State on Friday and Saturday. They have quite a large group going this year who qualified at region. This team has a lot of talent on it and they should have a lot of fun. Heading the drama team is Cheryl Church and Elaine Baldwin. They really inspire the kids and bring

out the best in them.

We made a quick run up to Twin Falls, Idaho, to visit our Granddaughter Teah, this last weekend. The world is full of little secret places like Twin Falls, it is about 5 miles off the freeway, but is the size of Cedar City. It is big time farm country; we took a ride over to Jerome County to visit one of the hospitals that Teah works at. Jerome County has 163 dairy farms and one has 50,000 cows in it, and there are many creamerys there also. When we left Twin Falls to go to Jerome we crossed over the Snake River and there was a guy standing on the ledge of the bridge and he jumped off, scared me to death. Teah said this is the only bridge that you can jump off of legally in the country.

There was an overlook on the other side and we watch these daredevils jump off the bridge and parachute to the bottom.

We watch 3 jumpers, I wonder how do you get the nerve up to even try it once, this bridge is really high, 486’ and I got a nose bleed just watching. These guys are called BASE jumpers (BASE stands for buildings, antenna, span, and earth) They will go off of anything and a lot of times it ends in an arrest or a major accident.

The next day we went over to Shoshone Falls, spring is the best time to see the falls.

In years of heavy precipitation the Snake River swells with the snow melt creating an awesome display at the falls. Swirling mist, and rainbows rise from the sheets of water. It is a beautiful area; they were holding a wedding while we were there with the falls as a back drop.

We drove along the Snake River for a while and there were a couple of golf courses along the bottom of the canyon. We stopped at a number

of over looks along the way for some spectacular sights. Most of the water for the farms in the area comes from the Snake River along with hydroelectric power.

We had a great time visiting with Teah and meeting some of her doctor friends. There are a lot of things to do in this area and the by-way there makes a loop over to Boise. You go by a lot of farms and by Sun Valley on this 175 mile trek.

I learned a few things from our trip to California The state is again booming, over a half a million jobs were created there last year. However like most of the west they are having big time water problems. Most of the ski resorts are closed due to lack of snow and the state only has one more year of water in reserve. With 38 million people living there it is a crisis and Governor Brown has started rationing the water. All business and home owners have to cut their water use by 25%. At this time they haven't cut into the farms, the farmers are irrigating alfalfa on drip systems. The Governor is proposing to bring a pipe line down from the Sacramento to Southern California, this water just runs in the San Francisco Bay. Many of

the home owners are planting desert plant in their yards and using rocks instead of grass and they are being compensated by the cities. The average water use is 300 gallons a day per person, by doing away with their lawns this cuts it to about 70 gallons. I have always felt that they need to figure out how to trap the run off water, that flows down their water ways (these are over 100 yards wide and 30’ deep and fill up to the berm) and all of this water goes into the ocean.

Don’t forget to make it to the City Council meeting next Tuesday the 14th to lend support to Kim Soper’s annexation program. This is a win, win program, those that live in this area will have a say so in how the City is run and they will be helping in paying some of the cost for the Fire and EMT services that they receive. The will start paying City Taxes, but will receive a reduction in their water and sewer system.

March came in like a Lion and went out like a lamb, I hope and pray that April will cooperate with those showers that are promised.

David vs. Goliath

Muscles in Motion Can Make a Difference

by Adus F. Dorsey II BICKNELL, UTAH, EASTER SUNDAY, APRIL 5, 2015 - Wisconsin’s win over undefeated Kentucky, on Easter’s Eve, will live long in the hearts and minds of the perceived underdog. It is proof positive that prominence, size, or stature mean little when the heated fire place kettle has boiled its contents down to the bottom and all that is left is the self determination of its left over simmering ingredients and their wanton ability to survive.

For months, maybe even years to come, in various baseball dug outs across the American continent, on basketball benches everywhere and in the locker rooms of life, good coaches will be reminding their demoralized half time players of the 2015 Wisconsin-Kentucky Final Four win. Those that “once upon time” were considered to be unbeatable and number one in the game of basketball in all the nation, then suddenly and unexpectedly becoming known as “none and one.”A not so special time in sports and in underdog history that emboldens lesser teams and individuals in life to take to the fields and courts across the globe with a new perspective of how the game of life really gets played.

I can’t say for sure how much of a Cinderella story Wisconsin’s win really over number one Kentucky was, and when I think about it a little more, as my day progresses, and the timing was seemingly more Biblical, given that it was the eve of Easter.

I mean, here it is Easter morning, spring 2015, and a new beginning. The stone has been rolled away and “He is risen.”

Not that there is much of a comparison between an exciting Final Four basketball game final score and the real meaning of Easter, but for some of us supposed underdogs, both early April and celestial incidents have often played an important role in our psyche, especially on this 2015 Easter morning.

(I say this because I was half expecting the Easter Bunny to drop off a basket of marshmallow goodies at my front door, but I somehow got inadvertently bypassed. {Could it be I once dropped my South Central Telephone landline and the bunny couple didn’t know how to find me?} Anyway, Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny must have figured I got all I was going to get while I anxiously followed the Wisconsin-Kentucky game on my computer because the media TBS corporate Giants ultimately made a multi million dollar deal that, “we, that won’t pay for cable” weren’t worthy enough to be able to watch the Final Four on free TV. Oh, wait just a minute, there are some left over brown pellets in my front yard, yippee… but the deposited pellets on my front lawn taste funny?)

History and even the Bible remind us of stories of unseeingly triumph in the face of insurmountable odds. One of my favorites is the story of David and Goliath, it is one I have been giving a lot of thought to, as of late.

To summarize just a little, for those that haven’t thought about the famous David vs. Golath underdog Bible story in a while, it was billed in the local papers at the time as a supposed epic battle between the favored Philistine Army, with a ringer and a big brute they called Goliath, and the lesser Israeli army with no distinguishing attributes, in an attempt to decide who would control of the strategic and steep valley of Elah.

The Elah valley was considered to be the primmest of properties, as it offered unfet-

tered access to the tourists visiting from the Mediterranean coast on seasonal holiday. A potential boon to real estate developers and certain individuals with the newly diagnosed disease of delusions of grandeur, locally perceived by the ancient inhabitants as a self proclaimed big fish in a small pond.

As the story goes, the favored Philistines; with their giant ringer Goliath, showed up on one side of the steep Elah valley and the Israeli army gathered on the other side.

People came from all around and brought their picnic blankets and wearing funny hats with smart phone cameras to record the event for future posterity.

The Philistinies’ were from the east and were sea faring people and the Israelites were a fledgling kingdom clustered in the mountains under the leadership of King Saul. It was during the eleventh century BCE that the Philistinies’ and its battle tested army began their move up the valley floor in an attempt to catch the Israeli mountain people off guard and split Saul’s kingdom in two.

Understandably alarmed, King Saul gathered his lieutenants together and made a plan to ultimately take on the Philistinies’, supposedly, once and for all.

The two armies gathered on opposite sides of the Elah valley and set up camp, growling at each other night after night over camp fire dinners of mutton and taters and all the while growing more and more discontent while each side waited for the other to make the first move.

Both sides knew full well that any such first move would be a sure suicidal action that meant that the attacking army would face an uphill battle, a bloodletting scenario neither side was willing to gamble on. The stalemate lingered for days and the growing crowd of observers grew restless waiting to see some bloodshed on the nightly news.

In a daily show of force, the Philistines sent down to center court their ringer “Goliath,” their ten foot giant (actually a 5’6” near sighted loser wearing 4 ½’ platform shoes) but he was armed with the best body amour money could buy to intimidate Saul’s army, and by golly if the Philistine's scare tactic didn’t work for about forty days and forty nights.

After a while, the Israeli army were getting fat on Mutton and Taters and the Philistinie army were growing bored playing endless games of Rock, Paper, and Scissors waiting for something exciting to happen in the Elah valley.

And lo and behold who comes along but a lowly Israeli sheepherder named David, sent to the battlefront by his father to check on his big brothers of whom he surprisingly found to be heavily bearded and rather over weight since he last saw them.

It was during yet another rousing morning half time pep talk that King Saul solicited anyone that would be foolish enough to go down and face the so-called 10’ (but from a long distance was actually 5’6” Philistine Giant wearing 4’6” platform shoes Goli-

ath…) the idea of confrontation caught young David’s ear.

Young David, having the next few days off from sheepherding and nothing better to do and without hesitation, the sheepherder David instantaneously volunteered. King Saul was sufficiently stunned, but visibly impressed and just as quick offered the young sheepherder David the best armor in the camp, mostly because all the other Israeli soldiers had over time had out grown theirs. David, with the demeanor of a barnyard mouse politely refused King Saul’s armor offer declaring that the heavy armor would be too cumbersome and as the son of a sheepherder he preferred his battle proven hardware to be his simple sling of leather and a pouch of smooth river rocks.

In David’s mind, and during his lifelong experience as a sheepherder, he had faced on a regular basis many similar battles protecting his sheep herd from danger with his simple leather sling. David knew, to know no fear, because in his heart he knew right was on his side.

When David; with right on his side went to fight Goliath, and Goliath wearing his heavy armor, and all the while thinking he was invincible, David did the unthinkable… and employed the art of unconventional warfare and did what no one thought possible.

Goliath adamantly demanded that David come closer, David refused, sensing the giant Goliath was near sighted and distance was to his advantage. The high priced heavy armor that the giant Goliath was wearing also proved to be a major disadvantage to the Philistine giant and David knew it. David surmised that by choosing his simple leather rock sling, a system of protection that he had over time perfected, he could accurately fire at high speed a smooth river rock at the giant’s exposed head. A well-placed hit that would prove fatal and put an end to all that was wrong with the Israeli and Philistine Elah valley provocation.

Let it be said, and as Bible history tells us, David’s thinking ultimately was correct… and actually proved to be a positive influence for an Israeli political cycle or two.

The Wisconsin win over Kentucky, and the David and Goliath Bible story is all about when ordinary people decidedly take a stand against the giants of the day and something fun to watch when it does. For those that pay attention to history, it is always a good reminder that “bigger is not always better.”

What is true about the Wisconsin win over undefeated Kentucky in the Final Four of the 2015 NCAA Basketball play offs is that there will always be a winner and a loser, no matter what. And in the natural scheme of things it all boils down to who has the most determination, and or who is most committed to concentrated and dedicated “team work”.

In certain situations, a world without “team work” is like a day of sitting constipationally by and watching a wild fire outside your window and doing nothing about it.

Then consistently accepting

Canine Massage Therapy:

the fact that all you are really doing is undeservingly getting fatter, hoping all the while, all you have worry about is that you have plenty to eat, while your house and everybody else’s around you is about to catch fire.

Year after year, in places like the ancient Elah valley, people constantly wait for a sensible minded sheepherder type to come along, a person the likes of the proverbial David, an individual whose only weapon in life is a simple slingshot made from faith.

Someone with enough actual common sense and an overwhelming willingness to step forward without hesitation, and proudly stand prepared to always take on the GIANT. In the small circles I run in, everybody loves the underdog; and in my mind, the he/she underdog is the person who should be considered to be the ultimate American survivor.

Practical Money Matters

Crowdfunding and Taxes: What You Should Know

by Jason Alderman

Crowdfunding – the online method of raising money from people around the world – is less than a decade old, allowing artists, activists and a growing number of entrepreneurs to connect with financial support far outside the conventional lending system.

Here's how crowdfunding works. Through sites like Kickstarter, Indiegogo or RocketHub, campaigners seeking funding create a pitch that educates potential funders – or "backers," as they're often called – on their project. Campaigns share their funding goal and the various rewards backers will receive for taking part; backers respond with pledges made via credit card. If the campaign meets its goal and deadline, the crowdfunding site activates all the card-based pledges and the campaign is funded.

While estimates vary widely, research organization Massolution (http:// w w w. c r o w d s o u r c i n g . org/editorial/2013cf-thecrowdfunding-industry-report/25107) put 2013 crowdfunding revenue at $5.1 billion globally. Many crowdfunding efforts today are artistic or cause-based, but that is expected to change in the near future.

Implementing the crowdfunding provisions of the 2012's Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act, (https://

www.sec.gov/spotlight/jobsact.shtml) the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is putting final touches on regulations allowing ordinary investors to participate in equity crowdfunding for the first time. This would mean that business owners could raise money via the web in exchange for a piece of ownership in their company.

Because the process of crowdfunding is relatively easy compared to other means of obtaining capital, some might neglect to research potentially unfavorable tax, financial or legal implications from their campaign. Potential crowdfunding campaigners might want to make a preliminary call to a qualified tax adviser, financial planner or an attorney before launching any online fundraising effort.

Individuals, companies and nonprofits have different tax issues and financial precedents that could blunt the effectiveness of any fundraising campaign.

Depending on the fundraising goal and how that money will be handled in the aftermath of the campaign, experts say some situations may call for a particular legal entity to be formed in advance. If appropriate, participants could seek guidance to form an actual business (https://www.sba. gov/writing-business-plan) or nonprofit (https://www.

councilofnonprofits.org/toolsresources/business-planningnonprofits) entity. Discussing structural issues in advance will not only help with tax issues, but also lead to better strategies for fundraising and long-term mission.

Beneficiaries should also consider any potential tax issues they could face as recipients of money from crowdfunding campaign. Depending on individual circumstances, crowdfunding a person's unpaid medical bills may have significantly different tax ramifications than crowdfunding one's independent film project.

It is not enough to consider the tax issues for the campaign and campaigners. Beneficiaries require their own due diligence to make sure crowdfunding provides the most efficient solution for their needs.

Finally, backers should consider whether they have any tax questions about their support. To date, most crowdfunding supporters give such small amounts tax issues don't really surface. That may change in the future as crowdfunding moves into the commercial arena. No matter what the circumstance, any potential crowdfunding backer who works with a qualified tax, financial or legal professional should consider asking if there are more efficient ways to offer support.

Bottom line: If you are interested in crowdfunding either as a campaigner, a beneficiary or a backer, research a potential project thoroughly and consider getting individualized tax, financial or legal advice before you proceed.

GRACE CHRISTIAN CHURCH

You probably didn’t know that when Taylor Albrecht is not maintaining your electric meter, he’s busy guiding hunts in and throughout Utah. “At the young age of 15 my dad excused me from school because his buddy had an elk tag on the fishlake unit and with only 3 days left in his hunt he needed help. We went up and my dad turned me loose with his friend and I took him to a few spots I knew were loaded with elk and called in some bulls for him. At the time I didn’t realize it but this hunt was what drove me forward to become a guide. When I turned 18 I started guiding for an outfitter on the fishlake plateau and Monroe mountain and have since been guiding hunts every year.” Even though Taylor gets to guide some amazing hunts with some amazing people, his favorite activity is still going hunting and spending time outdoors with his family, especially his two kids......Get to know the People Behind the Power
