Three Southern Utah Forests Launch Women in Wildland Fire Program RICHFIELD - The southern Utah spring is starting out dry and crackly again. The Dixie, Fishlake and Manti-La Sal National Forests have been hard at work finding women who want to experience wildland fire, to expand their firefighting workforce. After an outreach effort to recruit women interested in this program this fall and winter, 22 successful applicants will be taking the arduous pack test, consisting of a three-mile hike carrying a 45-pound vest, in the early part of May. The pack test is usually conducted on a track and must be completed in 45 minutes or less. A 40 hour Basic Fire School where the candidates will learn about the fire triangle (fuel, heat and oxygen) fire tools, weather and topography is next on the agenda, concluding with an actual live fire exercise. Two will be held, one near Cedar City and one in Moab. At the end of this training, these enthusiastic women will be ready to support the regular fire forces as emergency employees. They will gain valuable experience and will have a chance to compete for seasonal jobs next year.
During interviews many of the candidates expressed great excitement at “the chance for my dream job” and “the opportunity to get paid to be outdoors.” All the participants see this program as a chance to “check it out.” Program Manager Linda Chappell says, “I am so pleased with the results of our outreach efforts. I really feel we have some good candidates who were just looking for a chance to get their foot in the door.” The Women in Wildland Fire Program is intended to recruit interested women, and give them training and job skills so that they can apply for seasonal positions next season. This opportunity will introduce participants to careers in wildland fire management, along with other opportunities available in the Forest Service. A mentoring program accompanies the program to empower these candidates. The mission of the U.S. Forest Service is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of present and future generations. —U.S. Forest Service
Utah’s Wildfire Season Seems To Be Under Way
SALT LAKE CITY - Entering late April, it appears that Utah’s wildfire season is under way. Fires have been reported in areas of northern Utah, including a 75-acre brush fire near Utah Lake earlier this month. Jason Curry with the State Division of Forestry, Fire and State Lands said farming practices seem to have sparked many of the blazes. “They’re where people are doing agriculture-type operations like burning fence lines and ditch banks - wherever you have those types of operations,” Curry said. Anyone who causes a fire, even unintentionally, can be held liable for the cost of fighting the blaze, Curry warned. He added that the southwestern part of the state may be at greatest risk for wildfire this year, due to the ongoing drought. Meanwhile, University of Utah Associate Professor of Geography Philip Dennison recently released his research on the steady increase in both the number and size of wildfires in the western U.S. He said warmer temperatures and ongoing drought due to climate change may be a cause of the alarming trend. The number of wildfires
over 1,000 acres in size in the region between California and Nebraska has increased by seven fires per year since 1984, he found. Curry said the majority of wildfires are human-caused, but discarded cigarettes and still-burning campfires are not the main origins. During the height of wildfire season, sparks from a vehicle’s exhaust system, blown tires or brakes start many wildfires. “We do see a lot of roadside fires,” Curry said. “Our investigations show that it’s really more of an issue of vehicle maintenance, like brakes; the exhaust system is probably the most serious part of that whole equation.” According to fire prevention officials, vehicles should never be parked in tall grass or shrubs where fires can start because hot catalytic converters could come in contact with dry vegetation. Also, firewood and other flammables should be stored well away from homes and other structures, and vegetation near a home should be pruned or removed to limit the amount of possible fire fuels. —Troy Wilde, Utah News Connection
BLANDING - Utah’s tourism economy could see a boost, courtesy of Tesla Motors. The maker of the popular electric vehicles has installed its Tesla Supercharger stations in Blanding, Green River, Moab and Richfield. Blanding city manager Jeremy Redd said Tesla strategically locates the stations in areas close to tourism hot spots. Several Tesla drivers have stopped in for a free electric charge since the station opened earlier this year, Redd said. “We’re averaging at least one car-charging per day,” he said. “A couple of weeks ago, we had four separate cars from separate places charging at the same time. I think as the summer driving season picks up, we’ll see an increase in those numbers.” Redd said Tesla paid all costs for installing the charging station at the city’s visitor’s center, and also pays all utility costs. He said tourist attractions in the area include national parks and monuments.
According to Tesla’s website, there are more than 80 supercharging stations in the United States, located in cities along well-traveled highways. The company says the Tesla Model S can get a half-charge within 20 minutes and can travel 300 miles on a single charge. Redd said Blanding has become a destination for Tesla drivers, and hopefully some of their tourist dollars. “Hopefully they would stay here two or three days, charge their vehicles, then head out and see an attraction and come back and charge it again at night, and head back out,” he said. “However they use it is a bonus to us because there’s certain places they have to go right now, and we’re one of those places.” With some Tesla vehicles priced at more than $100,000, Redd said people coming into the area probably have extra money to spend at local retailers. —Troy Wilde, Utah News Connection

She graduated from Roseman University in 2010. She was a founding member and secretary of the National Community Pharmacists Association chapter. She is excited to move to Escalante with her 3 little boys: Scott, Jared and Levi.

ST. GEORGE - Dixie Regional Medical Center will host a suicide prevention training on April 29 from 7-8:30 p.m. in the SelectHealth Auditorium at 1424 E. Foremaster Drive. Utah’s suicide rate has been consistently higher than the U.S. rate for the last decade. Gregory A. Hudnall, MSW, EdD, is an expert on adolescent suicide prevention and will be the presenter. Dr. Hudnall has trained more than 20,000 parents, educators, mental health workers and volunteers in Utah. He has been involved with over 30 suicides as a direct responder or consultant. His trainings have been vital in preventing numerous suicides and continue to support communities throughout Utah. During his 11 years of being a principal in the Provo City School District, Hudnall lost five students to suicide. He was making his transition to become the associate superintendent when he received a haunting call. A student of his had committed suicide and they needed him to make the identification. This tragedy was a turning point in Hudnall’s life. “I made a vow that day to do something to prevent suicide,” said Hudnall. He began calling local organizations and inviting them to join together to create programs to educate the community about suicide prevention. “Everyone came together and asked how they could help. We started to put programs in the school,” said Dr. Hudnall. “We started to see success.” The community is encouraged to attend in a similar effort to strengthen suicide prevention efforts locally. There is no charge. For more information call (435) 251-2159. —Dixie Regional Medical Center

Utah’s March Employment Report SALT LAKE CITY— Utah’s nonfarm payroll employment for March 2014 grew by an estimated 2.8 percent, adding 35,800 jobs to the economy as compared to March 2013. Utah’s current employment level registers 1,310,200. March’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate registered at 4.1 percent, a slight uptick of two tenths from February. Approximately 59,300 Utahns were unemployed in the month and actively seeking work. The national unemployment rate remained unchanged from February at 6.7 percent. Utah continues to experience positive job growth. The current growth rate of 2.8 percent is below the state’s long-run average of 3.1 but well above the 1.7 average since September 1997 when the state first reached the one million-job threshold. All of the ten private sector industries measured in the establishment survey posted net job increases in March as compared to last year. The

Clean Out Your Medicine Cabinet for National Take Back Drug Day TROPIC - The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has scheduled another National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day. This is a great opportunity for those who have accumulated old unwanted, unused prescription drugs, to safely dispose of those medications by local law enforcement. Panguitch has participated in this annual nationwide event for a few years now and residents have turned in over 50 pounds of unwanted, expired prescription drugs for safe disposal. This annual event also has reduced the availability of prescriptions to youth and others that might want to gain access to them for misuse and abuse. Prescription drug misuse is a growing problem. Approximately 9 million Americans use prescription drugs at least once a year for “non-medical” reasons. (Non-medically means that they were taken for reasons other than the medication was prescribed. This could include taking more than prescribed, longer than prescribed or a higher dose than prescribed taking a medication for a reason for a reason other than what it was prescribed for or taking a medication that was not prescribed for them.) Utah in the leader in the nation in the non-medical pain killer abuse and misuse. Treatment admissions for prescription painkill-
ers increased by 340% over the last 10 years in Utah. WHY? Perception of Risk, Public Attitude and socially acceptable, and Availability. Perception of risk- there is a low perception of risk regarding the use and abuse of these types of drugs. Many people mistakenly assume that prescription drugs are safe since they are prescribed by doctors. It’s true that these drugs serve a very important purpose, and should only be taken under the direction of a Doctor and use as directed. Many believe, especially youth, don’t think these types of drugs are dangerous or addictive. Taking prescription drugs for even two weeks will start to cause a physiological dependency. We should not treat these drugs lightly. Public Attitude and socially acceptable- The second reason these drugs are so commonly abused is because we as a society have developed an attitude around these types of drugs that makes them socially acceptable. We live in a culture where it has become acceptable to take these types of drugs. When we have a headache we take a drug, when we have a stomach ache we take a drug, when we don’t want to sleep we take a drug and when we can’t sleep we take a drug. As a result of this our children are growing up with a false sense of fixing

everything with a drug. Unfortunately many people honestly don’t see the difference in taking Tylenol when they have a headache or a prescription narcotic when they are stressed or overwhelmed with life. Availability- This is one of the biggest contributors to the increase in prescription drug misuse and abuse. These types of drugs are right in our own homes or friends or families homes. If you were given one hour to go out into the community and bring back as many illegal drugs (Heroin, cocaine etc) as possible most people would not have a clue where to go to obtain these types of drugs. But if I ask the same question about bring back as many prescription drugs as possible; we would be able to complete this task. For most they would only have to open the medicine cabinet to find these types of drugs. They are everywhere, and it isn’t hard to find them. 50% of youth who abuse prescription drugs are getting these drugs from their own homes or a friends home for free. 30-40% purchase them from a friend, or steal them from relatives and neighbors. Only 10% of kids that abuse these drugs get them from a doctor. In other words we make these drugs available to our youth. If we made these
drugs unavailable, we could eliminate almost 90% of the supply of drugs to youth. This means getting rid or unused prescription in our homes, and locking up those prescriptions that we still use. This applies to everyone, even if you don’t have kids at home they are still available to someone who want to get them. Over the last few years we have seen an increase locally of this problem of prescription drug abuse and misuse. There has been an increase in youth being referred to juvenile court for these issues, homes have been broken into and prescription drugs have been stolen. As a substance abuse prevention coalition, Panguitch Prevention Coalition, we wanted to address this problem by our communities joining in the participation of the National Take Back Drug Day and reducing the availability of these drugs to our youth and others who might seek to abuse them. Please support our efforts to reduce the availability of prescription drugs and drop off your old unused medications at the location listed above. We thank everyone for participating and contributing to the battle against prescription drug abuse and misuse in our community. —The Panguitch Prevention Coalition

In spring the water gets turned in, and there, in multitudes, Grow lots of little pointy spears, one of my favorite foods. You break ‘em off and eat ‘em raw. That is one good way. Or take ‘em home and bake ‘em in a tasty cheese soufflé. Just chop ‘em up and toss them with a salad, freshly picked, Or flood them with some hollandaise, like in Eggs Benedict. Pickled wild asparagus spears are so good you can’t beat ‘em, And being’s they’re free adds to the joy and pleasure when you eat ‘em. Fed ‘em to me any old way. I promise not to fuss. Let’s just say I’m fond of Wayne County’s wild asparagus. Some folks claim their ‘private spot’ to harvest the noble fruit. I say it’s mine if I should happen to be the first one to get to it. “Ditch Bank Asparagus’” 2006. from Fence Lines, by Ray Conrad, published by Avalanche Creek Productions, 2009.

Garfield School District Calendar for 2014-2015 In preparation for the 2014-2015 school year, the Garfield County School Board will receive a recommendation on a school calendar at the April School Board meeting. The District has considered four calendars with employees voting for their preferred calendar. The calendar with the most votes will be recommended to the Board for their approval. Because of how the winter holidays fell for this calendar year it was a little more challenging. Students will have a full two weeks for winter break this year. With such a long break it required an earlier start date and later dismissal date. This year school will start on August 19, 2014 and end on May 22, 2015. Every school district in Utah has the autonomy to adopt their own individual calendar. The only requirement from the State Office of Education is 180 days of school with a minimum 990 hours of instruction. The calendar will be available on the District webpage April 25, 2014. I hope by adopting this calendar early it will allow you to plan for your holidays and vacations in advance.

Which Types of Headache Can I Treat Myself? There are several types of headache that are not due to any serious underlying cause, and you may treat them yourself. They include migraine! (diagnosed by a doctor), tension headache, and cluster headache. If you have not yet obtained a formal diagnosis, your pharmacist can assist you in deciding whether your headache might belong to one of these categories. Furthermore, consult your pharmacist for assistance in choosing a specific OTC product for your headache. Treatment choices include acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol), ibuprofen (e.g., Advil, Motrin IB), and naproxen (e.g., Aleve). Be sure to carefully read all directions and precautions on the label of these products, including age restrictions. What Is Considered a Dangerous Cause of Headache? While you can safely self-treat some headaches, there are times you should see a physician instead. If a blow to the head preceded the headache, it is mandatory to see a doctor to make sure you do not have a concussion. If you think your headache might stem from a sinus infection, an antibiotic prescribed by a physician is the best course of action. If a temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ or “clicking jaw”) might be causing the headache, you may need surgical intervention to correct the situation. If you have a persistent, nagging headache at the time of year when you just turned on the heating in your house or apartment, you should consider carbon monoxide as a cause. Faulty heating systems allow this deadly odorless gas to enter your living spaces, causing headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, fatigue, weakness, confusion, fainting, disorientation, visual problems, and seizures. You must leave the dwelling immediately and call 911 for transport to an emergency room if you suspect carbon monoxide exposure. Alarming Signs There are other times when you should be sufficiently alarmed about headache to seek immediate medical care. Is it the first headache you have ever had? This could mean you have a neurologic problem. If the headache was brought about by exertion or exercise, it may be due to an aneurysm (ruptured blood vessel). If you became less aware of your surroundings or your mental function has changed, a stroke may have occurred. If the headache is the worst one you have ever had or is unusually severe, you must seek care for diagnosis of the cause. If your headache occurred like a “bolt from the blue,” this might indicate that you have suffered a hemorrhage inside the skull, which demands immediate attention. If your headache occurred along with stiff neck, sensitivity to light, nausea, vomiting, and/ or loss of consciousness, you may have meningitis, and this must be medically treated. Headache with pain around the eye(s) may be due to glaucoma. If left untreated, glaucoma may cause irreversible loss of vision, so you must seek immediate care. Remember, if you have questions, Consult Your Pharmacist

State, Federal Funding Helps UPSTART Help More Kids SALT LAKE CITY - Millions of dollars in new state and federal funding is expected to help thousands of Utah children get an educational head start. Claudia Miner, vice president of development with the nonprofit Waterford Institute, said over the next year, her organization’s UPSTART program could help an additional 6,700 kids in Utah learn at home before starting school. UPSTART stands for “Utah Preparing Students Today for a Rewarding Tomorrow.” It provides educational software, computers and Internet access to 4-year-old children in lowincome and rural households,
Miner said. “UPSTART is over 450 hours of instruction - there are books with guided reading, there’s the alphabet, there are phonics-related things - and it’s all individualized,” Miner explained. Utah lawmakers approved an additional $3 million in funding for UPSTART in this year’s legislative session, bringing total state funding to $4.7 million per year. Miner said the federal government is also providing a grant of more than $11 million for UPSTART to be tested in Utah’s rural school districts. The program started five years ago and has helped about
7,000 children learn at home before starting school, she said, adding that research shows that kids who get UPSTART training are up to three times better prepared for school than children not in the program. “There are so many studies that show if a child is ready to go to school, ready to learn, that they will do better in school. They will pass their tests, they will be promoted - they will, you know, have a better chance of going to college,” Miner said. The program’s website is www.utahupstart.org. —Troy Wilde, Utah News Connection
Fishing should be stellar in 2014
Fish populations, water conditions and weather are in your favor SALT LAKE CITY - – Great weather, good water conditions and healthy fish are waiting for you at waters across Utah. Biologists with the Division of Wildlife Resources expect 2014 to be an outstanding year for anglers. This year’s conditions are better than they’ve been in several years. Just ask those who have already fished this spring; they’re reaping the benefits. “With the weather breaking, the next two months of fishing should be as good as anyone could hope for,” says Paul Birdsey, DWR cold water sport fisheries coordinator. “If you’ve haven’t fished for awhile, 2014 is the year to take it up again.” Usually, Utah anglers have good water and bad weather, or vice versa. This year, though, Birdsey expects a perfect blend of the two. Drew Cushing, warm water sport fisheries coordinator for the DWR, expects fishing to heat up a week or two earlier than in years past. Best waters. So which waters should provide the best fishing in Utah in 2014? Here are Cushing and Birdsey’s picks: In the northern portion of Utah, Cushing and Birdsey agree that Starvation Reservoir will be this year’s top water. Anglers can expect hot fishing for walleye, rainbow trout, brown trout and smallmouth bass. Fishing at Starvation stays good through the summer, but the best time will be from midJune to mid-July. At just over 100 miles from the Salt Lake Valley, this year’s top water is a great get-away for those along the Wasatch Front. In the southern portion of the state, Sand Hollow Reser-
Wipers up to 24 inches long can be caught at Willard Bay Reservoir this year. Photo courtesy of Phil Tuttle, Utah DWR.
voir should provide excellent fishing. Anglers are catching largemouth bass and bluegill. Cushing says that, although it’s already good, fishing at Sand Hollow will heat up in May. Cushing is already planning his trips to Willard Bay Reservoir this year. “It’s just 45 minutes from Salt Lake City,” he says, “and the fishing will be red hot.” Many of the walleye at this northern Utah water will be 18–20 inches long this year. And wipers in the reservoir will be 12–24 inches. Birdsey says he won’t be surprised if Scofield Reservoir in east-central Utah produces another record-breaking trout this year. Tiger trout in Scofield can reach weights in the upper teens and low 20 pounds. Cutthroat trout in the reservoir have been known to reach nine pounds in weight. Strawberry Reservoir in north-central Utah is also a contender for the state’s best trophy-trout water. Cutthroat trout anglers will find a healthy year class above the slot limit — these fish are 22–25 inches long. Plenty of 14-inch rainbow trout are also waiting to be caught.
Stay updated. Even though it’s time to start unwrapping your boat, some waters still have ice on them. To stay up to date on conditions at your favorite fishing spots, check out the DWR’s fishing reports or contact your nearest DWR office. Fishing forums, including www.bigfishtackle.com and www.utahwildlife.net, also provide up-to-date fishing information. Quagga mussels. Cushing reminds you that thousands of quagga mussels were found at Lake Powell this winter. Before you leave the vicinity of the lake, you must clean any mud, debris or shells from your boat, and drain all of the lake water from your bilges, ballast tanks and engines. You must complete the final step in the clean, drain and dry process — drying your boat the required amount of time — before placing it on any body of water in Utah. Or, you can get your boat professionally decontaminated for free. More information is available at wildlife. utah.gov/decontaminate.html. —Utah Division of Wildlife Resources
Practical Money Matters
Why Disability Insurance is Critical by Jason Alderman
Most people understand why having life insurance is a good idea: Nobody wants to leave their survivors in a financial lurch if they were to die suddenly. But what if you suffer an accident or illness and don’t die, but rather, become severely disabled? Could you or your family make ends meet without your paycheck, possibly for decades? Although most people are entitled to Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) benefits if they’ve paid sufficient FICA payroll taxes over the years, the eligibility rules are extremely strict, applying can take many months, and the average monthly benefit is only about $1,150. So what are your other disability coverage options? Many companies provide sick leave and short-term disability coverage to reimburse employees during brief periods of illness or injury. Some also provide longterm disability (LTD) insurance that replaces a percentage of pay for an extended period of time. But employer-provided LTD plans usually replace only about 60 percent of pay and the money you receive is considered taxable income, further lowering your benefit’s worth. Plus, such plans often have a waiting period before benefits kick in, will carve out any SSDI benefits you receive, and cap the monthly benefit amount and maximum payout period (often
as little as two years). Thus, even if your employer provides basic LTD, you might want to purchase additional coverage. Just be prepared: LTD insurance can be expensive. Yearly premiums may cost 1 to 3 percent of gross income, depending on plan features, your age, and whether you have preexisting conditions. First, see if you can buy supplemental coverage through your employer’s plan – their group rate will be cheaper than an individual policy and you probably won’t need a physical exam. Or see if any professional or trade organizations you belong to offer group coverage. If not, you’ll have to buy an individual policy. A few of the things to keep in mind: • The younger and healthier you are, the lower the premiums you’ll be able to lock in. • Some policies won’t pay benefits unless you can’t perform the duties of your own occupation, while others specify that you must be physically unable to perform any job (the latter coverage is much cheaper). • Look for a “non-cancelable” policy, which means the insurer can’t cancel or refuse to renew your policy – or raise the premium – if you pay on time. • The longer the waiting period before benefits are paid, the lower the premium.
Thus, if you have enough sick time and savings to wait 120 days before payout, your premiums will be significantly less than for a 60-day waiting period. • Some policies only provide benefits for two years, while others pay until your normal Social Security retirement age – most cover somewhere in between. The shorter the term, the lower the cost. • Many plans exclude preexisting conditions, mental health or substance abuse issues. • For an additional fee, policies with a “future purchase option” allow you to increase coverage as your wages rise, without having to take another physical or rewrite the policy. • Check whether the benefit payout amount is fixed or if cost-of-living adjustments are made periodically. The latter type is more expensive but offers better protection against inflation if you’re disabled for many years. Bottom line: If you became seriously disabled it could easily wipe out your savings and put your family in financial jeopardy. Before you actually need it, investigate what disability coverage you already have and what other options are available. Jason Alderman directs Visa’s financial education programs.

The Easter Egg Hunt, continues to grow each year and this one was no exception, plenty of candy and prizes. The Easter Bunny got things off a minute early by hitting the siren instead of the microphone and the kids went running and there was no stopping them. It is a fun 15 minutes and the kids love it. Funds for this event are donated by the Panguitch City, Lions Club and candy donations from Joe’s Main Street market. Today is Easter and it is the biggest day in the Christian religion, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ and all that is holy. I was out at Ruby’s Inn last week and they are starting the building of the second half of their pioneer village and their shops. Life is made up of peaks and valleys and if you can figure out why you are on the peaks, you need to stay with it. Ruby’s has done that, to keep customers there they do something new almost every year. They have two swimming pools, ATV rides, horseback rides, rodeos, a great camp ground, trailer park, Ebenezer’s entertainment center and a very large trading post and store. They also have Bryce Canyon on their door step and Highway 12, Utah’s only All American Highway. However all of Garfield County has the same access to all of this outside scenery. It is only a short drive to Highway 12 and Bryce Canyon, from Panguitch. No we don’t have any swimming pools, but we have miles of ATV trails and the best rodeo arena in So. Utah, excellent fishing at the Lake and our streams team with fish. We are also a big game hunting area when in season. We have events that run all summer long, starting with the Quilt Walk Festival, Balloon Fest., 4th of July, Fiddlers entertainment, 24th Pioneer days, Garfield Fair and
the Demolition Derby and the ATV rally. The Panguitch Lions Club serves all you can eat breakfasts at each one of these events. To add to all of this, the National Geographic ran a really great article on the Escalante -Grand Staircase. This is a recap of that article: Around 75 million years ago, Utah was part of an island landmass called Laramidia. It was hot and swampy and dinosaurs ruled. The layer of mudstone once stretched 4,000 miles from the Arctic Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico. Laramidia was created 90 million years ago, during the late Cretaceous period; rising seas flooded the middle of North America and split it in two. Since 2000, Paleobotanists, have unearthed fossils of thousands of plants and animals. Bones of Parasaurolophus, Utahceratops, Talos, Kosmceratops and Horned and Duck billed Herbivores have been discovered. This opens up a whole new reason that will bring people into the area. I found this information from a news article in the Deseret News very interesting: Rocky Mountain Power has signed a deal supporting the wind farms in Utah. These wind farms, once in action, will have the capacity to produce 300 megawatts of energy to power 93,000 homes. These agreements are for 20 years and will keep the cost the same. With other electrical power units they are governed by the cost of fuels that go up and down in costs. The wind farm out at Milford is by far the largest in Utah. The wind farm also trains and hires high school boys and girls to work in this field. Utah lags far behind the rest of the nation in wind power, but by 2025 they are hoping that up to 20% of the power used will come from this method. That is the same year that the generating plant out at Delta will have to switch from coal to a much cleaner
These are the results of last week’s State Drama: Panguitch took 3rd Place. “Almost The Bride of Dracula” by Dennis Snee Took Third Place - Won Best Costumes Cast Donnie Corwin - Dracula Kylee Osborn - Dracula’s Mother Lauren Smith - Dracula’s Grandmother - won Best Character Actress Donna - Miranda Sarles Leisel - Morgan Barney Becky - Rylen Veater Becky’s Father - Josiah Sarles - won Best Character Actor Becky’s Mother - Rebekah Holbrook Pantomime Medal for straight Superiors Jacob Fawson - The Car Brynnlee Savage - Workout Woes Classical Scenes - First Place Winner!!

All of their generated power is sold to California and they won’t be buying power from anyone that uses coal. May is here and the bus system will be running shortly out at the Bryce Canyon Park. If you have people visiting, I would urge you to have them ride the bus and leave the driving to us. The buses stop at all of the overlooks in the North End of the Park and you don’t have to look for a parking spot, or if the lots are filled, you miss out on some beautiful scenery. Those of you that haven’t taken the guided tour out to Rainbow Point, it is free and the two guides are really knowledgeable of the Canyon. This year on Memorial Weekend; there are a number of events planned. Starting on Friday the American Legion will be putting out flags at the cemetery on the Veterans graves, with so many of these brave men passing on this year if we miss anyone please call
me at (676-2418). Saturday morning there will be a giant garage sale on Main St. so get all the wonderful stuff out and make a few bucks off of it and make someone else a happy camper. The Main St. Committee will have a staged bank robbery, at about 1 clock, with live shootings among some real cowboys. On Monday a Memorial Day program out at the cemetery is planned, these are part of the Sesquicentennial Events planned for the year. LaMonte Olson is heading up a program that includes a flag ceremony, speaker, music by Becky Henrie and many primary children as well as some Panguitch descendants in costume portraying their ancestors who are buried at the cemetery. LaMonte has put in a lot of work into this endeavor and should be really interesting. No sports this week, because of spring break. Stay healthy my friends! Mack O.

Jana Jackson is the choir director and she and her choir did a great job. A group of five Primary youngsters sang a beautiful song and a bit later five high school students also sang a wonderful song. Those that accompanied the singing were LaNae Cloud, Jeanette Pollock and Danielle Brinkerhoff. Thanks to them for presenting us with the beautiful program.

The tickets were paid out of the School Trust Land money and the BV Community Council decided to approve it. The BVHS “Leonardo” trip was also paid for out of this fund. The elementary students participated in the “Great Shake UP”. It was done statewide. It was done on Tuesday the 15th. Emily Clark’s son left his baseball glove at the field a week ago, if anyone has seen it or might have picked it up please let Emily know. His name should be on it. It’s a two toned color. Thanks!

They found out that a cousin, Georgia Middleton Limb was in a Rehab Center in Riverton so they took time to go visit her twice and had a wonderful visit. Georgia lived in Henrieville as a child and now lives in Cedar City. Wynona wanted everyone to know that Larry Chnoweth of Cedar passed away. He grew up in Henriville and was a brother to Lane Chynoweth. Larry was married to the former Marlene Baugh and was a great friend of Lynden Sudweeks. He will be buried in Enoch and the funeral is to be announced. Dance Atti2ude had their 9th annual dance recital Friday the 11th. It was a great show!

Escalante Essentials by Jean Bramble
The Escalante City Council focused on the current and upcoming budgets during a work meeting in the hour prior to the regularly scheduled meeting of April 15th. Vickie Schulkoski, city recorder, was the first to speak. Vickie presented her thoughts about the need to provide internet access to city documents, including minutes of Council meetings, beginning in January 2015. Recently, Vickie met with an organization that she considers worthy for the role of helping Escalante accomplish this task. The group would solve the challenge of getting the minutes on line. Ms. Schulkoski proposed that the city engage in a five-year agreement with the firm at the cost of $1,300 per year. In addition to helping the City, the group would train office personnel to update ordinances as needed, set up a usable search engine and so on. The possibility of a download capability for city forms may also be available. Ms. Schulkoski did not mention the name of the group, but said that it had worked for local organizations. The subject of technical support is likely to appear on the agenda in the near future. Ms. Schulkoski added an additional request to the wish list for funding. In order to help citizens who are hard-ofhearing, she asked that a public address system be purchased. Councilwoman Barnes agreed that this expenditure is needed. Stephanie Steed, city treasurer, offered another potential item for future expenditures. She suggested that City Council consider closing the offices for half the day on Fridays or possibly the entire day. The reason for this suggestion is two-fold. Both women often offer staff support for 12 hour days on Tuesdays, thereby accruing significant overtime. Secondly, there are potential energy savings. Cost to heat the city offices was recently in the vicinity of $800 dollars/
month and has been known to run even higher. Councilwoman Barnes announced that as a result of her continued negotiations with the State of Utah, she now has a verbal agreement for a 99year lease on the city UDOT yard. The yard is presently “on loan’” to Escalante. The lease would allow the city to make improvements. Once leased, Ms. Barnes envisions plans for renovations including a parking lot and some park-like features in the northern part of the property. Trees, parking, trash receptacles and benches would improve the appearance of town and provide amenities for travelers and town-folk alike. The metal shed that expired in a microburst about three weeks ago may be rebuilt using the framing that was spared. The new shed would be relocated in the north end of the rodeo ground and covered with new sheet metal. Cost of walls for the rebuilt shed would be somewhat more that $2,400, significantly lower than complete replacement. Councilwoman Torgerson would like to see installation of a sprinkler system around the Community Center. Brickwork on the old seminary building and relocation of the swamp cooler is needed. Although she previously purchased Holiday lights for the streetlights (on sale), Ms. Torgerson is reluctant to make further expenditures to replace the very-worn overhead adornments, (now $1,500 each), due to great need to replace or rebuild critical city infrastructure. Ms. Torgerson and Ms. Barnes discussed how these decorations might be resuscitated for one more year. The City has been offered the opportunity to purchase a $3,500 splash pond to augment the new playground in the city park. $1,500 has already been provided and designated for this purpose. To further support this cause, collection jars have been placed around town.
Please donate. City businesses and organizations will also be approached for donations. Councilman Allen reported that the Conservation Corps may be charged $5,000 as a rental fee for use of the Mohr Christiansen Park, thus helping the city budget. He went on to point out that the most desperately needed item involving city expenditures is improved drainage. He reminded the audience that we do not think about drainage until monsoon season when flooding occurs throughout town. Some funds have been set aside in the budget for drainage, however they are inadequate for the task. The council discussed specific drainage problems on certain roads and trouble spots. A $10,000 bill for the airport is soon due. Crack seal at that site may not be applied until the weather cools in September. The fence along one side of the airport needs to be fixed per contract with the landowner. Public hearings will be held in the near future to discuss impact fees and passing the third resolution for the new clinic bond. Ms. Barnes indicated that the additional monies coming from the new resort tax are not fully determined. Given the time of year during which these funds were recently collected, (January, February and March), the first quarter may not be a good estimate on which to base expectations or plan future expenditures. Mayor Taylor then opened the City Council meeting. He reminded those present that during the public comment section of the meeting, speakers are limited to three minutes. Mark Austin then presented an original painting by Sheila Woolley that he is placing on long-term loan to the city. The painting, titled “Man in Memory,” depicts an event at a July 24th celebration about 100 years ago. Following this presentation, Ms. Schulkoski wel-
comed new citizens to town. There were no planning and zoning reports. The first person scheduled to speak was Larry Withers. He presented a check for $10,000 in memory of his wife, Jacque Withers, who died after spending her life in Escalante. Jacque was devoted to our town and particularly devoted to the healthcare clinic. Hence, Mr. Withers designated the gracious gift to the clinic. Council addressed the coming change in the impact and connection fees. A work meeting/public hearing devoted to these issues was scheduled at 5:30 pm on the 20th of May followed by a resolution at the City Council meeting. A public hearing concerning the wording of the nuisance ordinance is also planned. Generally speaking, the ordinance will read as it currently stands, however the determining term “to a reasonable person” will be added. For example, something that “a reasonable person” considers a nuisance would be evaluated during adjudication of the law. “To a reasonable person” will function somewhat like the “community standards” clause established about pornography by the Supreme Court. Each of the candidates for the Resort Tax Advisory Board will be asked to make a fiveminute presentation at the next council meeting on May 6th. Councilwoman Barnes requested and was approved funding ($1,000) to replace the brooms on the city’s street sweeper. There were few department or administrative reports. Mayor Taylor expressed appreciation for recent civic involvement and stated that he is glad to see the town working together. Councilman Allen described that needed airport maintenance funds are already in the budget. Councilwoman Barnes announced that the annual Escalante Clean-up Day
will be held on May 9th followed by a hot dog dinner at the pavilion. Some replanting will be done to further beautify Main Street. Attractive Highway 12 informational signs with lockable informational cases will be added to the city
park. Attendees were invited to view photos of the signs after the meeting. Lastly, it was announced that potholes in our streets would be repaired once higher temperatures arrive.

Utah Female Prisoners Train Service Dogs for Veterans DRAPER - A program new to Utah allows female prison inmates to train shelter dogs to serve as companion and service animals for veterans suffering from mental health challenges. Cathy King, executive director, Canines With a Cause, says the dogs live with the selected inmates at the Utah State Prison for up to nine months of training, then are paired with veterans to help them cope with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, depression and other conditions. “The benefits really are threefold,” she explains. “Not only is the dog getting out of a shelter and going to a veteran to help them really improve their life, but the program has been so amazing for the women at the prison.” King says the animals are specially trained as psychiatric service dogs, which is a benefit the Veterans Administration does not provide. The program saves thousands
of dollars in training costs, King points out, noting that a trained service dog can cost $15,000 or more. Currently, six dogs are being trained by inmates serving sentences ranging from two years to life in prison, she says. For veterans who served in Afghanistan and Iraq and are now struggling to readjust to civilian life, she adds, the dogs can be a huge help in making that transition. “A lot of these guys wouldn’t be able to leave their homes without these dogs because of their high level of anxiety,” she explains. Canines With a Cause has placed more than 200 dogs with veterans since the program started four years ago.

Do Not Settle for Babylon: You’re Better Than That
This week Cynthia Kimball is continuing to take a break to complete her PhD, so we are offering a reprise column from March 2013.
I was talking with a friend recently discussing that sometimes we settle for Babylon. What’s Babylon, you may ask? Stone (2006) tells us that it, “... was, in the time of ancient Israel, a city which had become sensual, decadent, and corrupt. The principal building in the city was a temple to a false god, which we often refer to as Bel or Baal.” Settling for Babylon could refer to when you do what everyone else is doing. For instance, you are at a party, and everyone is drinking, and you, feeling the pressure, and perhaps even being pressed to drink, you succumb and drink a bottle of beer. But not because you ever wanted to, but instead because the pressure was too great. You also didn’t want to look foolish and be the odd man out. Then before you knew it, you were on your second bottle of beer and planning to attend the next party. But why even put yourself in that situation in the first place? Is being cool more important than doing the right thing? If you’re being pressured to attend one of these parties then the people that are pressuring you are not friends or real and true friends. And if you do consider them friends it’s time to get new ones. Often times a man or a woman will hear this line, “Well, if you loved me, you would,” in regards to being sexual. If you ever hear this line, you need to flee this re-
lationship as soon-as-possible. No one who truly loves you would ever give you this ultimatum. This situation also represents Babylon. Some TV, video games and Internet sites also represent Babylon. Yet, if you don’t want to be in Babylon, why do you even watch and or engage in them? I live in a city, Las Vegas, which many consider to be the Babylon. I did, too, before I moved here. And I even did for a while until I met the saints of this city. These are good people, doing good and righteous things. But you have them in your city or town too. You just have to look for and seek them out. Yet, Stone (2005) feels, “...that sensuality, corruption, and decadence, and the worshipping of false gods are to be seen in many cities, great and small, scattered across the globe. Anything that takes you away from being and doing good represents Babylon. As stated, it could be drinking or being at a party. It could be drugs. It could be dressing immodesty. It could be in the inappropriate words you choose. It could come through in your body language and how you walk. It could be in the fancy car you drive. If the most important thing to you is your car, gossiping, viewing or watching pornography, your video game, your TV show, the next party, being sexual with your boyfriend or girlfriend, your jewelry,
clothes or home, etc., it’s time to reevaluate your life as you may already be in the depths of Babylon. Don’t settle for Babylon. Don’t settle for what everyone else’s doing unless it’s good. Often times you know right away what is right or wrong. Listen to that. It’s your body’s warning sign telling you that what you are doing is right or that danger’s ahead. Stone (2006) says, “[You] do not need to adopt the standards, the mores, and the morals of Babylon.” He suggests, actually, to “...create Zion in the midst of Babylon. What a luminous and incandescent phrase, as a light shining in the midst of spiritual darkness. What a concept to hold close to our hearts, as [you] see Babylon becoming more widespread.” “[You] can have [your] own standards for music and literature and dance and film and language. [You] can have [your] own standards for dress and deportment, for politeness and respect. [You] can live in accordance with the Lord’s moral laws. [You] can limit how much of Babylon [you] allow into [your] homes by the media of communication” (Stone, 2006). How do you do this? Just don’t ever entertain anything that has to do with Babylon.

Dangerous Criminal
One night, a lady stumbled into the police station with a black eye. She claimed she heard a noise in her back yard and went to investigate. The next thing she knew, she was hit in the eye and knocked out cold. An officer was sent to her house to investigate, and he returned 1-1/2 hours later with a black eye. “Did you get hit by the same person?” his captain asked. “No,” he replied. “I stepped on the same rake.”
Defensive Driving Course
One of my co-workers got a speeding ticket and was attending a defensive-driving course to have points erased from her license. The instructor, a police officer, emphasized that being on time was crucial and that the classroom doors would be locked when each session began. Just after one class started, someone knocked on the locked door. The officer opened it and asked, “Why are you late?” The student replied, “I was trying not to get another ticket.” The officer let him in.
tHe lAuGhiNg pOiNt!! Tightwad
A tightwad was convinced by a friend to buy a couple of lottery tickets. But after he won the big prize he didn’t seem happy. “What’s wrong?” the friend asked. “You just became a millionaire!” “I know,” he groaned, “But I can’t imagine why I bought that second ticket!”

One outraged college student stomped up to the lunch line at the cafeteria, holding a plate with a piece of pie on it.”This is disgusting!” he exclaimed. “What kind of pie do you call this?!” The lunch lady calmly put down her ladle, looked him in the eye and snarled, “And just what does it taste like?” “It tastes like cardboard and rubber cement!” the student cried. Lunch Lady thinks a moment, then replies, “That must be the apple. The cherry pie tastes like stale crackers and soap.”

Estate Administration Choosing an Executor or Trustee by Jeffery J. McKenna We do not like to think about death. We are not wild about paperwork and procedures, either. Administering the estate of a deceased person (decedent) unfortunately involves death and taxes and careful accounting and attention to detail. In your will you name an executor to handle your estate. A commonly known term for the executor is “personal representative.” If you die without a will, the Court will appoint a personal representative to carry out this function, so it is preferable for you to make the choice. If you use a revocable trust for your estate planning, you will name a successor trustee. Who should you name as your executor or trustee? It is important to be sure that your executor or trustee is capable of handling the responsibility. The executor or trustee must be detail-oriented, be able to persevere in dealing with bills and insurance reimbursements, hospital paperwork, Medicare, ambulance, and doctor costs incurred in a last illness. The executor or trustee must be someone who
is comfortable in handling paperwork, not afraid to ask questions, and have decent communication skills. An executor or trustee may have to manage an investment portfolio and make important investment decisions. Your executor or trustee may also have to cope with relatives who may be wondering why it’s taking so long to receive their inheritance or why their bequests are smaller than they expected. This can happen if, for example, the decedent’s money was aggressively invested in the stock market, and those stocks nosedived after he or she wrote the will or trust. The executor or trustee is responsible for various tax returns, and may have to manage the decedent’s property throughout the probate process. The process can last more than a year. The process can involve managing an investment portfolio and making important investment decisions. Some people name a professional executor or trustee, rather than naming their spouse or another relative. This assures that the execu-

tor or trustee has no possible conflict of interest, since the executor or trustee does not stand to gain from the will or trust. In general, the larger the estate, and the more the potential for conflicts, the more you should consider naming a professional as executor. An additional benefit of a professional executor or trustee is that it lessens the possibility of personal liability for a family member. In conclusion, there are many factors to consider in naming a successor trustee or executor. Jeffery J. McKenna is a local attorney serving clients in Utah, Arizona and Nevada.

Ain’t Broke
Most people believe that “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Engineers believe that “if it ain’t broke,” it doesn’t have enough features yet.
On the Scale
Having avoided the scale for a few years, my husband finally got up the nerve to climb aboard. Unable to read the numbers, he got off to grab his eyeglasses and stepped back on. “What do you know?” he called out. “These glasses weigh 30 pounds.”
