Big-Nosed, Long-Horned Dinosaur Named for GSENM Scientist

KANAB – For the third time in five years, a Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument employee was honored by having a newly discovered dinosaur named for them. The British scientific journal, Proceedings of the Royal Society B announced July 17 that a remarkable new species of horned dinosaur unearthed in GSENM is called Nasutoceratops titusi. The first part of the name, Nasutoceratops, translates as “big-nose horned face,” and the second part honors Monument paleontologist Dr. Alan Titus for his years of research collaboration. Previously, in 2010, GSENM volunteer and seasonal employee Scott Richardson had a dinosaur he discovered on the Monument in August 2006 named in his honor, Kosmoceratops richardsoni; and in 2009, park ranger Merle Graffam was honored when a therizinosaur he found in 2000 on a section of Utah State Institutional Trust Lands near GSENM was named Nothronychus graffami. The published study, funded in large part by the Bureau of Land Management and the National Science Foundation, was led by Scott Sampson, when he was the Chief Curator at the Natural History Museum of Utah at the Uni-

versity of Utah. Sampson is now the Vice President of Research and Collections at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. Additional authors include Eric Lund (Ohio University; previously a University of Utah graduate student), Mark Loewen (Natural History Museum of Utah and Dept. of Geology and Geophysics, University of Utah), Andrew Farke (Raymond Alf Museum), and Katherine Clayton (Natural History Museum of Utah). Nasutoceratops, belonging to the horned dinosaur family Ceratopsidae , was a huge plant-eater inhabiting Laramidia, a landmass formed when a shallow sea flooded the central region of North America, isolating western and eastern portions for millions of years during the Late Cretaceous Period. As epitomized by the renown Triceratops, most members of this group have huge skulls bearing a single horn over the nose, one horn over each eye, and an elongate, bony frill at the rear. The newly discovered species, Nasutoceratops titusi, possesses several unique features, including an oversized nose relative to other members of the family, and exceptionally long, curving, forward-oriented horns

over the eyes. The bony frill, rather than possessing elaborate ornamentations such as hooks or spikes, is relatively unadorned, with a simple, scalloped margin. For reasons that have remained obscure, all ceratopsids have greatly enlarged nose regions at the front of the face. Nasutoceratops stands out from its relatives, however, in taking this nose expansion to an even greater extreme. Scott Sampson, the study’s lead author, stated, “The jumbo-sized schnoz of Nasutoceratops likely had nothing to do with a heightened sense of smell— since olfactory receptors occur further back in the head, adjacent to the brain—and the function of this bizarre feature remains uncertain.” Paleontologists have long speculated about the function of horns and frills on horned dinosaurs. Ideas have ranged from predator defense and controlling body temperature to recognizing members of the same species. Yet the dominant hypothesis today focuses on competing for mates—that is, intimidating members of the same sex and attracting members of the opposite sex. Peacock tails and deer antlers are modern examples. In keeping with this view, Mark Loewen, a co-author of

Youth From Loa LDS Stake Take Martin’s Cove Trek

MARTIN’S COVE, WY On June 10, 2013, at 8:30 PM, 260 youth, adult leaders and support from Loa Utah Stake, boarded four buses travelling throughout the night approx 520 miles to Martins Cove on the high plains of Wyoming. They arrived at sun up to experience walking in possibly the exact same places as those incredible pioneers so long ago in the Martin Willie handcart companies. Couples throughout Loa Utah stake were called as Ma’s and Pa’s of twenty families. These families made

Utah. This vast and rugged region, part of the National Conservation Lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management, was the last major area in the lower 48 states to be formally mapped by cartographers. Today GSENM is the largest national monument in the United States. Sampson proclaimed that, “Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument is the last great, largely unexplored dinosaur boneyard in the lower 48 states.” For most of the Late Cretaceous, exceptionally high

up six handcart companies. They would spend the next three days in a pioneer experience. An undertaking such as this took five years of planning and preparation to be able to make this a successful memorable experience. This year’s theme was “Stand Ye In Holy Places”. (D & C 87: 8) Prior to the pioneer trek, the young men and young women spent time doing family history research to get to know their ancestors and where they came from. They were to choose one to write a short history of their life. Some discovered that their ancestors were some of the original pioneers in the Martin and Willie handcart companies. The youth participated in various activities leading up to the trek. One activity took place at the old church in Cainville. The youth were lead by their bishops to the hillside overlooking Ephraim K. Hanks grave. He was a Wayne County famous pioneer, who took part in the rescue at Martin’s Cove.

This drawing shows the oversized nose and exceptionally long, curving, forward-oriented horns over the eyes. in a narrow belt of plains sandwiched between the seaway to the east and mountains to the west. Today, thanks to an abundant fossil record and more than a century of collecting by paleontologists, Laramidia is the best known major landmass for the entire Age of Dinosaurs, with dig sites spanning from Alaska to Mexico. Utah was located in the southern part of Laramidia, which has yielded far fewer dinosaur remains than the fossil-rich north. The world of dinosaurs was much warmer than the present day; Nasutoceratops lived in a subtropical swampy environment about 100 km from the seaway. Beginning in the 1960’s, paleontologists began to notice that the same major groups of dinosaurs seemed to be present all over this Late Cretaceous landmass, but different species of these groups occurred in the north (for example, Alberta and Montana) than in the south (New Mexico and Texas). This finding of

“dinosaur provincialism” was very puzzling, given the giant body sizes of many of the dinosaurs together with the diminutive dimensions of Laramidia. Currently, there are five giant (rhino-to-elephantsized) mammals on the entire continent of Africa. Seventysix million years ago, there may have been more than two dozen giant dinosaurs living on a landmass about one-quarter that size. Co-author Mark Loewen noted that, “We’re still working to figure out how so many different kinds of giant animals managed to co-exist on such a small landmass?” The new fossils from GSENM are helping us explore the range of possible answers, and even rule out some alternatives. During the past dozen years, crews from the Natural History Museum of Utah, the Denver Museum of Nature & Science and several other partner institutions (e.g., the Utah Geologic Survey, the Raymond Alf Museum of Paleontology, and the Bureau of Land Management) have unearthed a new assemblage of more than a dozen dinosaurs in GSENM. In addition to Nasutoceratops, the collection includes a variety of other planteating dinosaurs—among them duck-billed hadrosaurs, armored ankylosaurs, domeheaded pachycephalosaurs, and two other horned dinosaurs, Utahceratops and Kosmoceratops—together with carnivorous dinosaurs great and small, from “raptor-like” predators to a mega-sized tyrannosaur named Teratophoneus. Amongst the other fossil discoveries are fossil plants, insect traces, clams, fishes, amphibians, lizards, turtles, crocodiles, and mammals. Together, this diverse bounty of fossils is offering one of the most comprehensive glimpses into a Mesozoic ecosystem. Remarkably, virtually all of the identifiable dinosaur remains found in GSENM belong to new species, providing strong support for the dinosaur provincialism hypothesis. Andrew Farke, a study co-author, noted that, “Nasutoceratops is one of a recent landslide of ceratopsid discoveries, which together have established these giant planteaters as the most diverse dinosaur group on Laramidia.” Eric Lund, another co-author as well as the discoverer of the new species, stated that, “Nasutoceratops is a wondrous example of just how much more we have to learn about with world of dinosaurs. Many more exciting fossils await discovery in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.” —Natural History Museum of Utah, the University of Utah, the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, and the Bureau of Land Management

TORREY - The annual Torrey Ward Boy Scout Breakfast was held the morning of July 6, during the Torrey 4th of July Apple Days Celebration. The breakfast was again a success this year. Thanks to all the great people who attended and helped support these hard working young men. Funds donated at the breakfast each year go to help fund a quality scouting program for these young men. In 1989, the Torrey Ward Boy Scouts decided instead of knocking on doors and asking for an annual donation to support their program; they would rather provide a service to the community by serving a wonderful breakfast each year at the annual Torrey 4th of July Apple Days Celebration. Over the years the breakfast has become more popular and people from around the state of Utah, nationally and even internationally have supported the breakfast. The Torrey Ward Boy Scouts would like to thank all who supported them. —Leon Bogedahl, Torrey Ward Boy Scouts

dency, talked about the Martin and Willie handcart companies that were stranded on the high plains of Wyoming and those who were called to rescue those stranded pioneers. He explained that Ephraim K. Hanks played a big role in this rescue. He not only took them needed food but performed many miracles that saved many limbs and lives. President Paul Pace, Stake President, representing Ephraim K. Hanks; rode in on horseback leading a pack horse. He talked of the buffalo meat that Ephraim Hanks brought the starving pioneers. He passed out small pieces of beef jerky to represent the small meager portions they may have received. This was the third time that President Pace has taken the youth to Martin’s Cove. He was asked why? His response was: “To stand and feel, to become a little tired, to move outside of the everyday, the mundane, and to open our hearts and allow the spirit of truth to settle in upon our spirits. To be a part of a major undertaking to learn that we can do big things. The biggest thing we ever do is to gain our personal testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ.” President Pace was also asked why they carried the American flag at the lead of the handcart company. It was noted by the missionaries at Martin’s Cove that Loa Utah Stake was the only one who

had carried the American flag. President Pace replied: “We carry the American flag to teach patriotism and a love for the country we live in. We honor those who have served, fought and died to make it free for us to worship as we believe. We also carry the flag of the state of Utah and a Loa Utah Stake flag to honor the pioneers who settled our state, stake and towns where we live.” Emily McNey, a young woman who participated in the trek, said: “ the trek helped me gain a better understanding of what the pioneers went through. I hadn’t realized before I went what remarkable courage and faith these people had. They sacrificed so much.” Preston Stephenson, a young man that also participated stated that: “the trek to Martin’s cove was one of the best experiences of my whole life. The cove changed my life as I learned about everything my ancestors went through. It was amazing to know I was walking where they walked. I saw where they buried their dead and it strengthened me to think of their courage and faith. My ancestors taught me how to persevere through hard times. If they can do it so can I.” The Trek was Successful!! —Loa Utah LDS Stake

Staffing Updates at GCSD

As the new school year quickly approaches, teacher staffing is being solidified within the District. The following people are being recommended for Board approval at the next School Board meeting. David Dawson is being recommended by the Panguitch High School interview committee to be the science teacher at Panguitch High. Mr. Dawson has taught science for one year at Pine View Middle School. Ann Marie Norris has been recommended by the Panguitch Elementary hiring committee to be a full-time teacher at Panguitch Elementary. Principal Reynolds reports that Mrs. Norris will teach first grade next year. Regina Wood has been recommended by the Escalante High and Escalante Elementary hiring committees to teach Special Education at Escalante High, Escalante Elementary and Boulder schools. Mrs. Wood has worked in Special Education at the Gateway Preparatory Academy in Cedar City. I would like to congratulate these individuals for being selected by the hiring committees to teach in the various communities. I am looking forward to working with these individuals. Garfield County School District is a great place to work and we welcome these new employees into District. —Superintendent Ben Dalton

Wayne School District Board Report, July 2013 Wayne School District held its monthly board meeting on July 15, 2013 at 2:00 P.M. Monthly minutes and financial statements were discussed and approved. There were no citizen comments. Information items included: 1. Appreciation was expressed to the School Board from Coast-to-Coast Running for allowing them to use the Middle School Gym. Also appreciation to Jordan and Lisa Crane for providing meals for their stay. 2. A brief report was given on meetings attended by the Superintendent and Principals in preparation for the new state teacher evaluation system. 3. Certified and Classified employee discussions resulted with both groups accepting the 2% salary increase plus other benefits for the 2013-2014 school year. Classified employees have requested further discussions in the spring to continue to propose possible salary adjustments for next school year. 4. Mrs. Mary Bray discussed the Wayne Middle School Wolverine Mascot and colors in preparation for colors to be placed on the new gym floor finish. She felt the school needed its individual identity and that their own colors and mascot would help them in that regard. After discussion and as part of the business portion of the meeting, it was decided that due to a high volume of District use, the colors should remain purple and gold to coincide with typical “Wayne Badger” colors. 5. New lighting was discussed for the Wayne Middle

School gym, and bids will be collected to replace the inefficient lighting now in place. 6. Mrs. Cherie Blackburn presented a Kindergarten Proposal to provide an opportunity for all Kindergarten students to attend in the morning session. She cited several advantages for the proposal. This was presented as an information item, respecting the fact that the Loa Elementary administration and staff have authority to implement such a program for the 2013-2014 school year. 7. An employee immunization policy was presented to the board for their consideration, encouraging all district employees to update any immunizations they may be lacking. There was discussion about making these immunizations mandatory for school employees. This policy/discussion will be placed on the business portion of the August agenda. Information items included: 1. A first reading of the Wayne Middle School Credit Policy This policy conforms to HB345, requiring all secondary students to pass their classes with passing grades, or be required to spend time in remediation to pass the classes failed. 2. The Board discussed attendance at the annual School Boards Leadership training. 3. Personnel hired included: Jared Hallows, technology assistant; Joan Brinkerhoff, new bus driver; & Jennifer Batty as the new Wayne Middle School Secretary. 4. Mrs. Jessica Grundy’s

proposal for her and several FFA students to attend the national convention was approved. 5. Wayne High School and Wayne Middle School fees were approved for the 2013-2014 school year. It was noted that sixth grade students in a middle school setting might now be charged school fees as per HB 345. 6. Bids and projects were opened and discussed as follows: Asbestos removal bid accepted; Baseball Bleacher bids tabled indefinitely; Volleyball equipment for WMS approved as required by the new floor finish; Used Tire bids approved. 7. The first reading of the new “leave policy” was approved with discussion. More input from the administrators, teachers and classified personnel will be sought. 8. The first reading of the updated Orderly Termination Policy was approved with minor corrections. 9. Policy BEE2, regarding holding School Board meetings using electronic devices was approved. Policy BF was not approved, as it was determined that the current District Goals, Belief Statements, and Mission Statements covered the subject. Discussions were held regarding improvements to the baseball field, building and remodeling projects at the Middle School, and other purchases from the Undistributed Reserve funds. No executive session was held.

Butcher Shop

A woman walks into a butcher shop and asks the butcher about the price for a pound of tenderloin. “$12 per pound,” replies the butcher. “Are you sure? That can’t be,” says the lady. “Look, madam, it says right here on the card that it’s $12 per pound.” “But that seems so high compared to other butchers in the area.” “Lady, maybe they gave you the price for a poorer cut of beef.” “No, the butcher across the street said it was $9 per pound,” she says. “Well, then, why don’t you go buy it there?” asks the butcher. “Because they are all out.” “Well, when I’m all out, I sell it for $8 per pound,” retorts the butcher.

Front row left to right: Lucinda Josie, Morgan Barney, Marlee Torgersen, Makayla Dalton, Mckayla Heaton, Andrea Heaton. PANGUITCH - Eleven students from Panguitch High School’s FCCLA (Family Career and Community Leaders of America) Chapter attended a week long leadership conference/competition in Nashville, TN from July 5th to July 11th. The students had to place first or second in STAR events during state competition back in April in order to qualify to attend nationals. From Nashville, the students brought home 6 silver medals and 2 gold medals. Kambree Josie- gold in Career Investigation senior division, Kennedy and Morgan Barney- gold in Illustrated Talk senior division, Rowdy Miller –Silver in Teach and Train senior division, Mckayla Heaton-Silver in Food Innovation senior division, Makayla Dalton-Silver in Focus on Children junior division, Marlee Torgersen-Silver in Career Investigation junior division, Andrea Heaton-Silver in Recycle and Redesign junior division, and Taylor Bennett,

Mazie Miller, and Chesney Campbell-Silver in Interpersonal communication junior division. These students represented Panguitch, Garfield County, and the State of Utah in an exceptional way. They have excelled academically, completed service projects and display high standards in all they do. While in Nashville the students had the opportunity to compete in STAR events, attend workshops, listen to motivational speakers, and enjoy the many sites that Nashville has to offer. For those of you who don’t know what FCCLA is, the following is taken from the national FCCLA website: “FCCLA is a student based leadership organization where students take responsibility for planning, implementing, and evaluating chapter projects and activities, they develop the skills needed to take the lead in their families, careers, and communities. STAR Events (Students Taking Action

with Recognition) recognize members for proficiency and achievement in chapter and individual projects, leadership skills, and career preparation. STAR events offer individual skill development and application of learning through the following activities: Cooperative-teams work to accomplish specific goals, Individualizedmembers work alone to accomplish specific goals, and competitive-individual or team performance measured by an established set of criteria.” The Students along with their advisors, Tammi Bennett and Lucinda Josie would like to thank all those who made this great educational trip possible: Garfield County School Board, Superintendent Dalton, Brent Judd-CTE director, State FCCLA, Garfield County Commissioners, Panguitch City Council, Hatch City Council, Panguitch Lions Club, and all the great supportive parents. —Tammi Bennett

Gym Membership

Everyone vows to join a gym and go three days a week. Yeah, right. A woman once called me at the health club where I used to work. “I got a note saying it was time for me to renew my membership,” she said. “As much as I love to work out, I don’t think I’ll renew.” “Fine,” I said, “but you’ll have to come down here to fill out cancellation forms.” After a long pause - “Umm, where are you located?”

Wedding Advice

At a wedding, the DJ polled the guests to see who had been married longest. The bride’s grandparents took the honors. The DJ asked them: “What advice would you give to the newly-married couple?” The grandmother said: “The three most important words in a marriage are, ‘You’re probably right.’” Everyone then looked at the grandfather for his answer. He, wisely, answered: “She’s probably right.”

Living Trust Hype by Jeffery J. McKenna torneys fees. Finally, most of the ads also mention how the Revocable Trust will save on estate taxes. When you cut through the sales hype, the reality is that a Trust is not a “magic solution.” That’s not to say that the benefits of a Trust aren’t desirable. They are. It’s just that the Trust isn’t for everybody, as the promoters are claiming. Rather, the Revocable Trust is just one tool to be considered when planning your estate. Often it is the best

choice, but sometimes other options are better. There are some very good reasons for drafting a Trust, however, it is important to get good advice from an estate planning attorney before making your estate planning decisions. In all cases it is risky to pursue estate planning with “do-it-yourself” kits. The estate tax results could be disastrous. Estate planning is among the most important decisions of your life.

Replacement

Duck decoys, fishing rods, boots -- outdoor gear of all kinds was piled high in the garage. One day I found my wife staring at the mess. “I hope I die first, so I don’t have to get rid of all this,” she sighed. “Look on the bright side,” I suggested. “If I go first, you can put an ad in the paper. When all the men come by to check out the stuff, you can pick out a replacement for me.” Still staring at the pile, she said, “Nah. Whoever would want all this stuff wouldn’t be my type.”

AG MARKET NEWS

Wills, Trusts, and More Many advertisements warn readers that making a Will may be one of the biggest mistakes they can make. The ad might detail the horrors associated with settling an estate with a Will. The advertiser offers a simple solution: the Revocable Trust. All you have to do, states the ad, is to purchase do-it-yourself Revocable Trust forms and use them instead of a Will. These Trusts are not only being sold through these do-it-yourself forms, but they are also being touted by newsletters and the popular press as an excellent way to structure your estate. The promoters of the Revocable Trust are suggesting that you transfer all of your assets to the Trust while you are alive. You, or you and your spouse, are the trustees of the Trust and manage the Trust assets for your own benefit. You can change or cancel the arrangement at any time. In sum, while you are alive nothing has really changed except that your assets are technically owned by the Trust, rather than by you as an individual. All of the supposed benefits of the Trust come into fruition when you die. The promoters state that your assets automatically pass to your beneficiaries without the delay or expense of probate. The Trust also claims to ensure privacy and save thousands of dollars in at-

Repent

My neighbor, who has always been a very religious person, now believes the end of the world is near and preaches that people should repent and forego their earthly possessions. I am not a disbeliever or anything, but there’s one thing I find completely incongruent with his belief: Why does he refuse to give me his Porsche?

West Desert Cowhand May 14, 2013 The old man was always well turned out. His clothes weren’t new, but were tidy. His boots had experienced cowpies galore But them boots got cleaned off each Friday. Being by cows, with what cows do Is hard on your duds and your hat But he had some brushes and elbow grease Which soon took care of that. His riding gear was oiled and shined And repaired as soon as required. He figured you can’t do riding good If your saddle looks mangy and tired. You’d guess, of course, that his personal horse Would be treated like royalty. The old man called that big horse Prince. That kind of fits, don’t you see? The ranch where he worked was hellandgone out Where Utah bumps into Nevada. He’d come as a kid, and stayed, like he did ‘Cause he wanted to, not ‘cause he had ta. They talked him to going to Vegas once To see how the city folks play. The old man said, “That is all well and good, But let’s get on back home today.” His pay never got up to minimum wage But he ate good and had his own bed And that is all of the old man story There is to be currently said.

Robert Burns Evans

HATCH - Robert Burns Evans, 84, of Hatch, Utah died July 13, 2013 in Panguitch, Utah. He was born January 18, 1929 in Hatch to Norma Alice and Hyrum Fay Evans. He was the second of 9 children. He married Daisie Ardis Johnson May 18th, 1946 in Fredonia, AZ. On April 30th, 1960 the marriage was solemnized in the St. George Temple. Bob worked for several logging contractors and road construction running heavy machinery and trucks. He worked at the Garfield Road Department for 35+ years until he retired in 1991. Bob has many stories about the roads he worked on throughout southern Utah. But his love of all his jobs was running a grader. His passion could be shown through his skills on a grader. Bob always said he was born, raised and will die in Hatch. He was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and held several positions in the Hatch ward. In 1999, Ardis was moved into the long term care center in Panguitch. Bob never missed a single day trip to visit Ardis for more than 3 years until she passed away. Bob was known to make the best coconut cream pies and he shared them with all the people he loved. His grandchildren will always remember the love he shown them though his cooking. Most mornings he would wake up whistling and making pancakes. In the evening it was a treat to have his dutch oven potatoes. He is survived by his children, Michael J Evans (Jill) and Kimberlee Hamblin (Eddie), brother, Douglas James Evans and sisters, Virginia Young and Lorena Gish. Bob was preceded in death by his wife, Ardis Evans, parents, Hyrum Fay and Norma Alice Ellison Evans, brothers and sisters, Guy Hyrum Evans, Sharon Hunt, Richard David Evans, Roger Kenneth Evans, and Steven Fay Evans. Funeral services were held Saturday, July 20th, 2013 at 12:00 Noon in the Hatch Ward Chapel with a viewing from 11:00 to 11:45. Internment will be following at the Hatch Town Cemetery.

July 25, 2013

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com This has been a busy couple of weeks. The Fiddlers were here on Thursday and Friday evenings and put on very entertaining shows. Their numbers are down from last year, 9 have passed away and two others are in the hospital, however this didn’t take away from the talent that they possess and they have so much fun jamming together. The Taste of Panguitch was also a big hit on Friday night, with their biggest crowd ever and many of those went on over for a little country music. There was a really big barrel racing event at the Triple C, also on these same nights. The Lions Club put on their final breakfast on Saturday morning for the summer. They will be feeding breakfast for the ATV rally on all three mornings in late August, however. I completely forgot about the Desperado Duo. Last year they started at the Fire Station and when they went flying by at 7:00 in the morning it caught me by surprise, they went back to their old starting place down at the park. The Southwest Pacific Western Region Little League tournament is taking place all week long, at the baseball complex. Teams come as far away as Guam and there will be about 600 players here. If you want to see some really good games go on over and watch, its free. The City had a welcoming hamburger fest on Monday for all of the players and their coaches. I hope all went well on the 24th Pioneer Days. Did you get down to the 2nd Wards Scout fund raiser breakfast; it

is special seeing all those young scouts handing out the goodies. I hope you made it over to the Firefighters luncheon; this has been a tradition that has gone on for over twenty years. I hope you got enough candy to fill your bags and didn’t get run over, chasing after it during the parade. Nobody knows how the 24th is going to work out, coming on Wednesday, but it is really a fun day, with the one of the biggest parades around. The Lions Club will be flying the big flags along Main and Center Streets for the 24th. I have been asked by many of the seniors we have in town to put in a good word for the fine chefs we have at the Senior Center. These excellent cooks are cranking out around 120 meals every day they are open. Over 50 of these meals are delivered by the Meals on Wheels team, to Hatch and Panguitch. Their meals are not only great tasting, they are good for you, and they have all of the food groups covered. All it takes is for someone to come to lunch one time and they are hooked. Cooking for one or two people is really hard, espically trying to come up with any variety. Today they are having French dipped sandwiches and they will be playing bingo, so come on over and maybe you’ll get lucky. With the Tour of Utah bike race coming up I went over to the Social Hall to listen to Eric Sevy talk about bike racing. I really learned a lot from his expertise in this sport. Like every sport out there, these professional riders are elite athletics. They race as teams of 8; the big enemy of the racers is wind,

wind from nature and wind created by them. There are the elite riders and the team riders and they work as a team with each one running at the front of the team for 2 minutes and then dropping back in the pack and then the next rider takes his turn and so forth. This has a benefit of breaking the wind and pulling the other riders along and the last rider barely has to work. Eric said most of the team riders never win a race; they are roll riders and take great joy in helping the team. I don’t think anyone could win any of these races by themselves. The bikes have a certain weight that they can’t go under, 14.9 lbs and are made out of really light weight metal and are really expensive, the bike Eric rides cost over $8,000. Eric’s wife Amber, won the 50 miler for the women at the Desperado Duo and she was in 6th place overall at that point. Eric is a semi professional racer and won’t be in this race. With the riders staying so close during the race they won’t be able to take in

the sights of our All American Roadway 12. Panguitch is the only place that the race comes through twice. Tuesday they start here at 10 am in the morning. But the good news is on Monday they will be flying through town here. The race starts at Cedar Breaks at 11:30 and they are coming down 143 at speeds that you couldn’t drive your car They will turn on Center heading toward highway 14 going to Cedar City. They should be here between (to be on the safe side) 11:45 and 12:15 and there are 130 crazy racers going at unbelievable spends, so don’t blink. The Panguitch Lions Club will be out selling their Birthday calendars, if you haven’t been contacted in the next two weeks call (676-2418) and we will get someone out to your house, or give you a call. Next week not much is going on, it would be a good time to get out your 4 wheeler and cruise. Mack O.

The 24th of July celebration is over and the weather couldn’t have been nicer. It started put with the usual canons and, what some thought, might have been some of the fireworks! Next came the parade, which was great, as usual, and Sue Mosier was nice enough to forward those results to me the very next morning. Thanks, Sue! The sweepstakes prize went to the Forest Service entries for the Fallen Firefighters, which also honored one of our own, Jesse Steed, son of Steven Steed. Most original: 1st place, young women. 2nd place Relief Society. Funniest: 1st place, Griffin’s shootout. 2nd place, the Vergean Porter family. Best family float: 1st place Jerry Taylor family. 2nd place, Russell Brooks. Best use of theme: South Central Communications. 2nd place, Escalante Fire Department. Our Mayor, Jerry Taylor, took his family hat off and put on his Mayor hat so he could drive the vehicle which was reserved solely for the Grand Marshall of the Parade, who was Norman Christensen, 89. Lookin’ good, Norm! The Lions Club collected $900.00 from our very generous businesses and service organizations this year and divided the money among all the winners. Thanks to them. Maybe someone, from the Little League Baseball group will let me know this week who the winners were for the drawings at the rodeo on Saturday night. The Boy Scouts served a nice dinner at the LDS Cultural Hall at 11:00. The Carnival, at the city park, was great fun for everyone, especially the kids. With games, foot races, water slides, many vendors, fireman’s barbeque, live entertainment, Zip Line, etc. The dance on Friday night was fun with the Band, “Most Wanted” providing the music. There was a rodeo on both Friday and Saturday nights and beautiful fireworks to close out

the celebration on Saturday night. There was only one thing lacking. No program! Some say it was because the air conditioning at the high school wasn’t working! But we do have other buildings in town! We had programs in the cultural hall at the church for years and it was one of the highlights of the whole day! Hopefully that won’t happen again!?! There were all the usual family and class reunions going on and maybe some will send me some information for next week’s news? Dan and Lois Spencer and their family recently enjoyed camping over on the Mamouth with their family. They spent most of the week there. Art Snyder and family, Arizona, were back in town for the celebration. It was good to see them again. Wells and Emma Lou McInelly, Ellensburg, Washington, didn’t get to come home for the McInelly Reunion a few weeks ago but they were here for the celebration. It was good to see them. They are both looking good and seem to be doing well. I went to the “Shoot Out” hoping to see old friends and former residents, but there were more there that I didn’t know than ones I did know! I visited with Tyler and Jennifer McLemore and children. They were staying with Tyler’s mom and dad, Marc and Susann, this trip. Which reminds me, they said Marc tripped and fell down some stairs recently. No broken bones but he does walk with a slight accent! They also celebrated Marc’s 60th birthday while their kids were here. Happy Belated Birthday, Marc! Crockett Dumas says Theresa has had one knee replaced and was doing so well she was going back for a second one the next week. He said she bends her first knee better than he does his, but he seemed to be doing pretty well riding his fancy (or prancy) horse in the parade, even if he does have new knees! Dean and Janis Gledhill’s daughter, Chris, and her daughters stopped to visit a

few minutes. They said Janis is doing better since her heart procedure. In fact she was even dancing a little at the dance on Friday night! Arnold and Deon Alvey had daughters, Janene (Brad) Duncan, Loa, and Raylene (Dave) Whitefield, Las Vegas, and their families here. Danny and Sherrie Meisenbach had their whole family, plus some friends, here. Ron and Linda Mecham are here from Las Vegas and they had sons Russell and Brett and families here, not only for the celebration, but for some fishing also. Jon and Jillyn Sorensen and family were here from Salina. Their son, Brandon, was coming with his family but they ended up staying home with sick kids. Robert Haws had his son, Justin (Michelle) and family here from Fruita Colorado. Marian and Rick Haws had Marian’s daughter and family here from Oklahoma. If you saw tents pitched in my back yard, we weren’t camping! Jon had made Rick a new camp stove and they set up shop so they could see how it worked when it came time to bake sour dough biscuits! Chad Cottam has been practicing on the sour dough recipe too, so he came also and they turned out some darn good biscuits. Grandpa Haws would be proud! Jean Griffin had most of her family here. They were all the ones in bright blue T shirts. Another grandpa, Lewis Griffin, would have been proud! I’m sure jean was. Eva Dean Liston’s daughters brought her home for the celebration and the last I knew she was planning to stay for a week or so. I haven’t talked to

her yet but I saw her leaving the parade and she was walking right along, so she must be doing okay. Pratt and Arcola Gates had their entire family here. That doesn’t happen too often, but we were glad to see all of them. Darren doesn’t get home that often so it was good that he got to come too. Ben and Renee Porter didn’t have as many here as usual but they had a pretty good little representation. Kay Gates comes every chance he gets so he was here. Part of Analee and Reed Knudsen’s family, Mayfield, joined with the family of Ed and Camille Shakespear. Derrick Gracie had his family here at the home of his mom, Gloria Gracie. Sharon Dale and Eve Marsh had some of their family here. They brought trailers and it looked like they were having fun. Julie Ford had her daughter, Tresa, and family here. Julie has had some of her grandkids here all summer. Tom and Marilyn Jackson were here just before the celebration. They attended the Jackson Reunion over around Cedar City somewhere (?) and spent time with Tom’s mom, Rhea Nelson, Loa, who had fallen and had a broken a hip. Anyway, they returned to Idaho and their daughter JaNae (Mike) and family are there spending part of their vacation with them. The Lyman boys, from Boulder, were here . Mark and I think they said Kent? I know there is a lot more news out there. So I’ll be waiting for your call. Or e-mail!

by Vicki D. Syrett 679-8687 or vickidiane36@hotmail.com

If you happened by Clarke’s in the last day or two you saw Maren Stewart selling flowers and lemonade to raise funds for the 19 lost firefighters, the Wild Life Fire Fighter Foundation in Arizona. She grew the flowers herself and made the lemonade and did a great job. She had cute little vases that she made herself to put the flowers in. Way to go Maren. Congratulations go out to Samantha Harman wo was married on July 3rd to U. S. Marine Michael Tann in Corona, California. Samantha had been staying with her aunt and uncle there. Michael was recently baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and they were married by their Bishop. They briefly came on a trip to Utah to Salt Lake City to see family by way of Tropic. Bob, Yarlta and Abby accompanied them and had a reunion with family members in Salt Lake. The newlyweds may see a Military Transfer in the near future. They are now living near Oceanside, California. We wish the newly weds a wonderful future full of adventure and good luck. On 27 July Mark Weber and Cecy Clarke will exchange wedding vows in Tropic. They invite all friends and family to join in the celebration at 7:30 P.M. that day. Good luck to the happy couple.

23 July through the 26th. It is always a great adventure for the girls and their leaders. It is held up by Tropic Reservoir where they camp and do all kinds of activities. Marty Rich and his son, Rusty Rich were the speakers today and they did an awesome job. Whitni Syrett played a musical number on the piano. There were a lot of visitors in Tropic today. Someone commented that it looked like Stake Conference. KayLynn Shakespear was home visiting parents, Carl and Kay Shakespear. She had a handsome young man with her. Also spotted Kali Pollock (Baumgartner?) and baby. She was here with her family visiting Lonnie and Cheryl Pollock. Joe Hughes, a niece and Joey Mathews are in Alaska fishing.

The Primary is in charge of the food this year. Yum!! Kevin Nile Shakespeare is in the Dixie Regional Medical Center recovering from Open Heart Surgery.

The eleven year old scouts will have a bike ride this week and the young men will do a service project at the BVHS baseball diamond this week. Ashley Adkins was released as second counselor in the Relief Society in Henrieville. Gayle Moore was called to fill that position. Senior Citizens remember the bus is going to make a trip to St. George on 27 July.

Jordan Johnson did a special arrangement of Come Come Ye Saints on the piano. Nathan Platt spoke in Cannonville. The July Birthday group met on 16 July at the home of Brenda Rose. It was a nice afternoon and we had great food and fun conversation. I think I took notes at the luncheon but for the life of me I do not remember them or where I put them. Attending the party with July birthdays were Mary-Miller Boyd, Brenda Rose, Vicki Syrett, Gayle Moore, Sandy Johnson, and Julie Johnson. Also spending time with the group were Logann Eagar and Cambry Jensen who came with grandma Vicki. Brenda and Milt Rose were preparing their house for guests. Their son and his family will be staying with them for awhile as their home is finished elsewhere. I must say that the Rose’s have a beautiful home and we had a tour and enjoyed the day together. Please call or email your news to me. I appreciate the help I get. You all have a great week and stay safe. Thank you VS.

Wayne County Farmers and Ranchers: Nominate and Vote in Upcoming Local FSA Election WAYNE CO. - The Wayne County Farm Service Agency (FSA) is conducting a County Committee Election for Local Administrative Area (LAA) #1. LAA #1 includes farmers and ranchers in Fremont, Loa, and the surrounding farms. Only voters who live or own farmland in this area are eligible to vote. The election of responsible agricultural producers to FSA County Committees is important to ALL farmers and ranchers with large or small operations. It is crucial that every eligible producer take part in this election because County Committees are a direct link between the farm community and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Committee Members are a critical component of the dayto-day operations of FSA. They help deliver FSA farm programs at the local level. Farmers who serve on committees help decide the kind of programs their counties will offer. They work to make FSA agricultural programs serve the needs of local producers. FSA Counts on YOU: Nominate and Vote! Farm owners, operators, tenants, and sharecroppers of legal voting age can vote if they are eligible to take part in any FSA program. Almost anyone who is eligible to take part in a county FSA program may be a candidate for the Committee. We have women and beginning farmers who are well-qualified to be a Committee Member. Please consider nominating one of them. FSA encourages all eligible producers to nominate themselves, or another eligible producer, to run for office. Nomination forms (FSA-669A’s) are available at http://www.fsa.usda. gov/elections, scroll down to the links under “Election Materials” and CLICK “2013 Nomination Form”. Also, nomination forms can be picked up at the Wayne County FSA Office in Loa, Utah, or by calling (435) 836-2711 and requesting FSA-669A be sent to you. The form includes a statement that the candidate agrees to serve if elected. Nominations end on August 1, 2013. If you have any questions, please call Paul Pace or Sheila Torgerson at (435) 836-2711. USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer. —Sheila Torgerson, Wayne County Farm Service Agency

Jessica Grundy Named “AgriScience Ambassador” by DuPont NATAA

The Country Cafe

Outstanding Teacher Will Bring Innovative Learning Techniques into Local Science Classrooms

Jessica Grundy, high school teacher at Wayne High School in Bicknell and a 2013 NATAA graduate and Ambassador, will bring the latest in teaching techniques to local science classrooms after in-the-field study at DuPont Chesapeake Farms in Chestertown, Maryland.

WILMINGTON, Del., July 22, 2013 – Jessica Grundy, agriscience high school teacher, Wayne High School, Bicknell, Utah successfully completed the 11th annual DuPont National AgriScience Teachers Ambassador Academy (NATAA) at the company’s Chesapeake Farms in Chestertown, Md. Upon receiving the certificate of completion, Ms. Grundy became an “Ag Ambassador,” joining the 228 other outstanding teachers who, over the last decade, have attended NATAA and earned that designation. The NATAA “Ag Academy” is a professional development institute sponsored by DuPont and is a special project of the National FFA Foundation and the National Association of Agricultural Educators (NAAE). This year, 48 highly-recommended agriscience teachers were selected

Receiving certificates of completion, NATAA participants have become DuPont’s newest crop of “Ag Ambassadors”. Over the last decade, 229 Ambassadors have been trained in inquiry-based science, and have presented workshops to more than 12,000 teachers across the U.S. impacting tens of thousands of students.

to engage in inquiry-based activities, where they explored innovative teaching concepts in a classroom setting and spent the majority of the training time applying what they learned outside the classroom through real-world, handson activities on Chesapeake Farms 3,300-acre working farm. By bringing theses new learning experiences back to the classroom, teachers make the learning experience for their students more intriguing and fun, so students are motivated to learn more about agriscience and its role in helping create a healthier, more sustainable future. “Making sure we have enough healthy, nutritious food to feed a rapidly growing global population is one of the greatest challenges that the world faces today,” said Rik L. Miller, president, DuPont Crop Protection. “The ongoing work of the Ag Academy helps us take a significant step toward meeting that challenge, as it embodies both the professional development required and the enthusiasm necessary to help students flourish in agriscience-related fields.” In addition to applying new teaching techniques in the classroom, Ag Ambassadors also present workshops to their peers. In the last ten years, approximately 12,000 teachers across the U.S. including Puerto Rico and Alaska have participated. In all, Ag Ambassadors have had a direct impact on tens of thousands of students. — E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company Corporate News

How to Replace Important Documents If your wallet has ever been lost or stolen, you know what a pain it is to replace your driver’s license. That goes double when other vital documents like your, passport, birth certificate or car registration are misplaced or destroyed in a natural disaster. Without the proper ID, you can’t start a new job, buy a house, apply for insurance or a host of other common transactions. Here’s a guide on how to get copies or replacements for many common documents: Birth, death, marriage and divorce certificates. These records come from the states where the events occurred. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has a handy directory that provides links to the appropriate agencies in all U.S. states and territories, including costs and mailing instructions (www. cdc.gov/nchs/w2w.htm). Passport. Immediately report lost or stolen passports to the U.S. State Department by calling 877-487-2778. If it happens overseas, contact the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate. Visit http://travel.state. gov/passport/lost/lost_848. html for further instructions. Driver’s license, car registration. To learn how to replace your driver’s license, vehicle registration or car title (which you’ll need to transfer ownership), or to access other motor vehicle services, contact the Department of Motor Vehicles. Go to www.usa.gov/ Topics/Motor-Vehicles.shtml for links to each state’s DMV. Social Security card. These days, you may not actually need to replace a misplaced Social Security card. If you know your Social Security number, you generally

by Jason Alderman can still collect Social Security benefits, get a job and apply for government benefits and services. However, if you do want to replace the card, you’ll need to gather documents proving your identity and citizenship and complete an application (www.ssa.gov/ online/ss-5.pdf); then mail or take the paperwork to your local Social Security office. Military service records. Veterans often need copies of their military service records to apply for government programs, including health care, retirement or education benefits. You can apply to the National Archives (www. archives.gov/veterans) for a copy of your records (or an immediate family member’s if deceased). The site also has information on replacing lost military medals and awards. Green card. If your U.S. Permanent Resident (Green) Card is lost, stolen or damaged, or if your name or other important information has legally changed since it was issued, you may request a new card from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) by filing Form I-90 (available at http://www. uscis.gov). If you’re outside the U.S. and lose your green card, contact the nearest U.S. consulate or USCIS office before applying online for a new card. Medicare card. To replace a lost, stolen or damaged Medicare card, follow the procedures at https://secure.ssa. gov/apps6z/IMRC/main.html. To replace a Medicaid card, contact Medicaid (www.medicaid.gov). Tax returns. If you need exact copies of previously filed and processed tax re-

Survey: Rural Areas Feel Growing “Government Disconnect”

SALT LAKE CITY - As the debate over the purpose and programs in a new $500 billion Farm Bill drags on in Congress, a survey of people in rural areas shows most believe the federal government isn’t paying much attention to their needs. A poll commissioned by the Center for Rural Affairs says eight in 10 rural voters believe the government ought to be backing infrastructure projects to revitalize small towns, investing in better water and sewer systems, roads and bridges. Executive Director Chuck Hassebrook says rural communities want and need economic help from the government. “Rural people believe their communities are worth fighting for,” he says. “They strongly support government investing in small business development, in renewable energy, community development and other initiatives to create good jobs and a better future for rural communities.” Three-quarters of those polled also said they support tax credits and investment in new transmission lines to encourage development of wind, solar and other renewable pow-

er generation in rural areas. About 10 percent of Utah residents are considered rural, but 99 percent of the land is rural, based on the U.S. Census definition. Hassebrook says the poll summarizes the frustrations and values of rural communities, in Utah and nationwide, and he thinks the current Farm Bill debate proves Congress isn’t listening. “We surveyed 800 people across close to 20 states, so it’s a good-sized sample,” he says, “and, I think, important findings that inform the entire nation about what rural people have to say about what’s important to their communities.” Three-fourths of those polled also said they believe too much federal farm subsidy money goes to the largest farms, hurting smaller family farms. The subsidies are part of the latest Farm Bill passed by the House that stripped out food stamps and other federal nutrition programs, leaving the House and Senate far from a compromise. —Chris Thomas, Utah News Connection

turns (including attachments), you may order them from the IRS by submitting IRS Form 4506 (at www.irs.gov). There is a $57 fee for each year’s return you request. Before ordering an exact copy, however, ask whether a “tax return transcript” or “tax account transcript” will suffice. These abbreviated printouts of returns are often acceptable substitutes for student loan and mortgage lenders and are free. To order transcripts, go to www.irs.gov/Individuals/ Order-a-Transcript. School transcripts. If you need to order high school or college transcripts, it’s best to contact the school’s registrar or student services office directly for instructions. (Some websites that claim they can expedite the process have proven unreliable.) For even more suggestions, see “Replace Your Vital Documents” at www.USA. gov.
