The fires are being managed under the name Lost Lake Fires. Fire crews hiked in to the area to take suppression ac- tions Monday morning. The fires, burning in heavy timber, are estimated at a total of 6 acres. The cause of the fires is under investigation. Citing concerns for firefighter and public safety, the Fishlake National Forest is implementing an area closure for the fire area. The closure is described below: Beginning at Donkey Reservoir Road, south along For- est Developed Road 521 to Donkey Reservoir, then north along Wildcat Trail (#140) to the Bullberry drainage along Trail 123/124, then north east to Coleman Reservoir and back to Forest Road 521. Trails, roads and the surrounding area will be closed and the closure will remain in effect until further notice. The National Weather Service has issued a Red Flag Warning for this afternoon due to high temperatures and windy conditions. As defined by the National Weather Ser- vice, a red flag warning means that critical fire weather conditions are either occurring now...or will shortly. A combination of strong winds...low relative humidity...and hot temperatures will create explosive fire growth poten- tial. For information on this and other wildland fires in Utah visit utahfireinfo.gov, for information on fires burning in other areas, go to inciweb.org. Water, we can’t live without it. This dry year re-emphasizes the fact that our mountain watersheds are so critical to life, both for us and also for many plants and animals. Un- fortunately, the precipita- tion in our mountains, in the form of rain or winter snow, is only partially cap- tured in the mountain wa- tershed aquifers for later use in the valley cities and farms. Recently, an effort was initiated to begin the restoration process to fur- ther help the watersheds become more productive to many forms of life, includ- ing ours. In January 2010, the Utah Wildlife Board ap- proved an updated state- wide Beaver Management Plan. Some individuals or groups may see this effort to restore beaver as ill con- ceived. However, when one understands how our riparian areas originally de- veloped, it becomes much more sensible to do all that is possible to restore the way nature intended things to function. When I see so many of our Southern Utah streams flowing like ditches in eroded gullies that are cut through several to many feet of deposited soils, it becomes very clear that originally the canyons and valleys looked much differ- ent than we see them today. Major changes occurred in the 19th century. Early on, trappers removed uncount- ed numbers of beaver from Western watersheds for use in Eastern and European markets. Not long after, pioneer set- tlers brought new pres- sures to the watersheds mostly devoid of the na- tive beaver. In many areas, heavy livestock use and water diversions drasti- cally changed the streams. All too soon, erosion in the streams was a common oc- currence. Flat canyon bottoms were originally covered by wetland vegetation be- cause of the widespread water tables created by beaver dams. Streams that once harbored many bea- ver dams that filtered the silt-laded water from the steeper hillsides, have now, all too often, become rushing torrents with each spring runoff and summer thunderstorm. Streams on the Mt. Dutton and Beaver Mtn. Ranges, ravished by large fires in recent years, are prime examples of what happens when beaver are absent. As erosion lowered the streams, the plentiful wetland vegetation that was used by wildlife and early livestock, has been replaced by more dry-land species, such as rabbit brush and sagebrush we now see. To- day, most stream-side ripar- ian areas, to some degree, lack the ability to retain the water resources that nature designed them to do. And where do the eroded soils go? Obviously, our stor- age reservoirs and lakes fill with the unfiltered water. In recent years, many projects have been done to help restore watersheds of Southern Utah. Thirsty Pin- yon and Juniper Tree for- ests are being downsized to accommodate the original shrub/grassland vegetative communities. In fact, the Kanab BLM Field Office is leading the state in this effort. Stream-side grazing management is adapting in order to encourage plants that will further help to heal the erosive scars of past mis-management. It is now time to restore the beaver, nature’s riparian engineers. Recently, nine beaver were trapped from Pan- guitch Valley irrigation ca- nals and moved to mountain streams where they once existed. Problems were be- ing solved on both ends. Landowners and water users with problem beaver are now strongly encour- aged to contact the local Utah Division of Wildlife Resources Biologist or of- fice to report problems. Please be a bit patient in getting problem beaver trapped. However, realize they are valuable animals with a critical task to per- form. Do not kill them. All other sportsmen and others should also realize how ex- tremely valuable these ani- mals are in our watersheds. They must be protected from malicious destruction. Please realize their value and report unlawful activi- ties to your local conserva- tion officer. Years ago, when working as a conservation officer, I stocked fish in 18 areas in the Cedar City and Pow- ell USFS Districts where beaver (and fish) no longer exist. Many people once enjoyed these added oppor- tunities for fishing. Unfor- tunately, in recent decades, beaver have continued to disappear in Southern Utah. They are so critical to a healthy watershed and to the ecology of a stream- side riparian area. How- ever, when all is said and done, it’s not really so much about beaver. It is about the important work they do. BEAVER CAN IMPROVE OUR WATER RESOURCES By Norman McKee The Grand Staircase Escalante Partners (GSEP) Site Steward Program has a new coordinator, Loretta Clayson. A former volun- teer site steward herself, Loretta replaced Karolyn Tenney, who got the pro- gram up and running and compiled the Site Steward Program Handbook. Clay- son will work with Matt Zweifel, Grand Staircase- Escalante National Monu- ment (GSENM) Archaeolo- gist, to ensure that stewards are trained, new sites are recorded, and all sites are monitored for animal en- croachment, erosion, and vandalism. Clayson was raised in Southern Utah, living first in Boulder and then mov- ing to Kanab. As a child she remembers engaging in the common local pastime of that era – arrowhead hunt- ing and picking up pieces of pottery while imagining what life had been like for the makers of such treasures. As an adult she learned that damage to the area’s histori- cal record is most often in- flicted through innocence or ignorance, and she is pleased to coordinate efforts today to protect and preserve the Monument’s irreplaceable archaeological and paleon- tological resources. Clayson believes strong- ly in educating the public, and especially children, about the value of preserv- ing the history contained on public lands and at the Monument. “When you deface or destroy a site, you destroy information and a link to understanding his- tory. When artifacts are re- moved from their original context, the story loses its meaning in much the same way deleting important words from the page of a book diminishes its clarity and significance,” she says. Her desire to teach an ap- preciation for the amazing archaeological story in their own backyard prompted Clayson to coordinate field trips for Kanab students to the Jackson Flats Reservoir construction site. GSEP’s Site Steward Program is in its second year and has expanded from the original 17 volunteers to 48 active site stewards who have been trained in the proper procedures for monitoring and recording sites. Forty-two stewards monitor 90 sites in Kane County, and six monitor 17 additional sites in the Escalante area of Garfield County. These sites include rock art panels, habitations, storage granaries, and an historic town site. Seven paleontological sites have been added to the monitor- ing program as well. The program’s success is due to the dedicated ef- fort of enthusiastic stew- ards; this year more than 1400 volunteer hours have been reported. Volunteers often traverse rugged ter- rain to visit their assigned sites several times per year. Some stewards hike several miles or scale cliff faces to reach their sites. One site steward crosses the Paria River 16 times just to moni- tor an assigned site. Stew- ards have discovered three previously unidentified sites, two rock art panels, and a habitation area. Two incidents of vandalism have been reported by stewards, and a barrier project was completed to preserve a unique rock art panel site from animal damage. GSEP supports education, research, and conservation at the Monument, and ad- vocates sustainable enjoy- ment of public lands like GSENM. The Monument is the largest national monu- ment in the United States that is administered by the BLM for multiple uses. Be- cause of its significance as a place for research and edu- cation, GSENM qualifies as a National Landscape Conservation System “trea- sured landscape,” and is managed for conservation and restoration. The site steward pro- gram is currently closed to new volunteers; however, Clayson is keeping a list of those who are interested in becoming site stewards and she will contact them in the future. To add your name to the list, contact Loretta at 435-644-1306 or loretta@ gsenm.org.

The Grand Staircase Escalante Partners (GSEP) Site Steward Program has a new coordinator, Loretta Clayson. A former volun-teer site steward herself, Loretta replaced Karolyn Tenney, who got the pro-gram up and running and compiled the Site Steward Program Handbook.

GARKANE ELECTS OFFICERS AND SELECTS REPRESENTATIVES TO STATEWIDE ORGANIZATIONS

Carl Boyd, Jr. was recently re-elected Board President of Garkane Energy Cooperative, Utah. Garkane’s Board of Directors met on Monday, May 21, 2012, and selected Officers for the Cooperative for the coming year. Other Board Officers include Trent Hunt, Vice President, and Terry Griffiths, Secretary/Treasurer. The Board also selected trustees to two statewide or-ganizations in which Garkane participates. Randy Brown – Kanab and Carl Boyd, Jr. – Tropic will represent Gar-kane’s interests on the Board of Deseret Generation and Transmission Cooperative. Michael Blackburn – Bicknell, will serve another term on the Utah Rural Electric Associa-tion Board of Directors. Mr. Blackburn was elected Presi-dent of the UREA Board last June at their Meeting in Salt Lake City, UT. Garkane Propane's Board of Directors also met on May 21, 2012, and selected new Officers for the Company for the coming year. Wayne Robinson – Kanab, was re-elected as the President of the Board of Directors. Joining Presi-dent Robinson as Officers are Reed Munson – Escalante, as Vice President, and Tyler Barlow – Hildale, as Secre-tary/Treasurer.

For the second summer in a row, students of the arts from all corners of Garfield County will participate in an intensive, week-long music experience allowing them to hone their skills in violin, viola, and cello, just to name a few! Af-ter last year’s resounding success, Megan Cottam’s Violin Studio is proud to announce the return of the Bryce Canyon Music Camp (BCMC) slated for June 11 through 15 at Bryce Valley High School. The BCMC is not limited to Garfield County; in fact, this year’s camp will once again draw students from outside the state of Utah as well. In ad-dition to string instruments, participants may partake in courses in beginning guitar, choir, Irish dance, Native American drumming, and arts and crafts! The caliber of this camp cannot be understated nor should the level of rigor each student will receive! Beginning at 8:15 a.m. each day, students will take part in technique group classes (designed to improve tech-nical aspects of playing), performance group classes (helps students focus on polishing pieces from their level repertoire), master classes (one-on-one instruc-tion with a private, master teacher), Dalcroze Euryth-mics (improves rhythm, structure, and musical ex-pression using movement), and fiddling (bluegrass and Celtic-style). In addi-tion, there are two levels of orchestra where students learn to play cooperatively with other instruments and through a conductor. The camp culminates with a concert on the final eve-ning. Along with students of the camp, the profession-al clinicians will perform pieces as well. The final concert on Friday evening, June15th should not be missed and the public is welcomed to attend! There is no cost for this concert; however, do-nations are appreciated to help the support of the arts. Plan on an evening to re-member! The concert will be in the BVHS auditorium beginning at 5:30 p.m. The professional musi-cians and clinicians include: Dr. Philip Baldwin – Professor of Violin, con-ductor of the University Symphony Orchestra, and Director of String Studies at Whitworth University in Spokane, Washington. Dr. Baldwin performs as concertmaster and associ-ate conductor of the Coeur d’Alene Symphony. He is actively involved with the American String Teacher’s Association, serving as President of the Washing-ton Chapter and vice presi-dent of both the Utah and Maryland/D.C. chapters. Dr. Timothy (Terry) Durbin – Dr. Durbin holds a DMA in Orchestral Con-ducting from Claremont Graduate University, in

Los Angeles, California. Because of his unique teaching style, Dr. Durbin is one of the most sought-after clinicians/conductors in the country. His infec-tious enthusiasm and in-spired musicianship brings smiles and laughter to stu-dents throughout the Unit-ed States and around the world. His performance career stretches across the United States and Canada into Bermuda, Germany, Italy, China, Malaysia, and Singapore! Megan Titensor – Ms. Titensor completed her Master’s degree in Cello Performance at CU-Boul-der; her Bachelor’s degree, from Utah State University, is in Cello Performance. She has a large studio of private cello students and is a freelance musician in Salt Lake City. Lyndsey Wulfenstein – A former faculty member at Brigham Young Univer-sity where she taught World Dance, Mrs. Wulfenstein is currently teaching with the Shelley School of Irish Dance. As a member of the BYU International Folk Ensemble, she has traveled and performed in 13 dif-ferent countries around the world. Russell Wulffenstein – An accomplished musician specializing in traditional American and international folk music, Mr. Wulfen-stein has performed around the world as a musician for the Brigham Young Uni-versity’s International Folk Dance Ensemble. He has served on the State board of the Utah Old-time Fiddlers and Country Music Asso-ciation and is a two-time Utah State Fiddle and man-dolin champion. Marilyn Erickson – Mrs. Erickson received both her Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees from Southern Utah University where she majored in Education with a minor in fine arts. She has been teaching choir, band, drama, and guitar in the Sevier School District for many years. Vicki Hoy Andrus – Mrs. Andrus received her Bach-elor’s degree in music edu-cation and viola and violin performance from Southern Utah University. She spent four years with the Las Ve-

gas Philharmonic and has appeared as a soloist with several regional orchestras. Among many other accom-plishments, Mrs. Andrus is also an active chamber musician performing and coaching with the Chamber Music Society of Southern Utah. Amanda Clarke – Having studied the violin for a lit-tle over twenty years, Mrs. Clarke has come to love the effects that it has had on her life. Having been a teacher for almost ten years has helped her to see even more, the positive effects music has on a number of individuals. Seeing these effects in others and not just in herself provides her confidence in saying that any students can go as far as they desire to go in their pursuit of musical success. To bring this caliber of musicianship to Garfield County has taken much work. Countless hours of volunteering and fundrais-ing have been logged in or-der to make this camp a re-ality for the second year in a row. The BCMC Board of Directors would like to sin-cerely thank all of the stu-dents, parents, local busi-nesses and donators who have made this possible. Thanks also to Principal Jeff Brinkerhoff and Danny Brinkerhoff of Bryce Valley High School. In addition, we would like to thank the Garfield County Commis-sioners for their continued and generous support of the arts in Garfield County.

THE SECOND ANNUAL BRYCE CANYON MUSIC CAMP ATTRACTS WORLD-CLASS CLINICIANS

GARFIELD SCHOOLS TO ADOPT BUDGET The Garfield County School District has scheduled a public hearing to close the current year’s budget and adopt a budget for the 2012-2013 school year. The hearing will be held at the Bryce Valley High School Auditorium be-ginning at 5:00 pm, Thursday, June 14, 2012. The District encourages the public to attend and participate. Garfield County School District has taken significant steps to balance its budget over the past several years. As a result, expanded educational opportunities are being con-sidered for the upcoming school year. School Board mem-ber Brian Bremner said, “We need the public to understand what the District is doing; and we want parents and com-munity members to be involved in District decisions as much as possible.” Copies of the preliminary budget can be obtained at the school district office or on the internet at http://www.garfield.k12.ut.us/.

I have met with High School counselors and administra-tion to solidify a schedule for the 10-period block. If you recall, Garfield School District will be teaching on a 10-period block next year for grades 7-12. This means five periods will be taught one day and five pe-riods will be taught the fol-lowing day. Mathematics will be taught every day in grades 7-12. In 7th and 8th grade language arts will be taught every day. The rest of the classes in the sched-ule will be every other day. One of the advantages of a common 10-period block is the ability to provide classes electronically to all students in the Dis-

trict. After the scheduling meeting, it was decided to digitally stream the follow-ing classes electronically; these classes will be avail-able at each high school in the District, taught by our teachers: Chemistry, Physics, Spanish I, Math 1 Honors, Math 2 Honors, and Pre-Calculus, Psychol-ogy, creative writing, five CTE classes and a college History 1700. Some addi-tional classes are business economics, teen living, cabinet and mill working. These classes were identi-fied as the most critical and the best offerings we could provide in an electronic forum. As the schedules come together, the next

step will be to review the graduation requirements in the District. These gradua-tion requirements will be in place before the start of the next school year. The start and end times of the school day will also need to be dis-cussed and decided before August. We are moving forward with the 10-pe-riod block and providing more classes for students than we have seen in many years. As I looked at the schedules, I noticed classes like ceramics, choir, sports medicine, floriculture, drafting, environmental sci-ence and many concurrent enrollment classes

PANGUITCH ELEMENTARY A HIGH PERFORMING SCHOOL

Panguitch Elementary School was recently included on a list of “top 30 elementary schools by test scores” in the state of Utah by the Deseret News. The newspaper came up with its top 30 rankings by averaging end-of-level CRT tests in science, math, and language arts of elementary schools throughout the state. The CRT tests were adminis-tered in schools during the months of April and May. Panguitch Elementary was included on the list of top performing schools with the rank of #18 because 91% of the students in grades 3-4-5-6 tested as “proficient”.

Answers for this week

Why Not Me?

Often times when a trial comes your way you might think or say, “Why me?” but why not think or say in-stead, “Why not me?” I’ve found when I do this trials actually become opportuni-ties. English writer, John Heywood, said, “If you will call your troubles experi-ences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigor-ous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be,” (Word of Quotes, 2011). At 31, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Yet, af-ter the initial shock of the diagnosis, it took me a little bit to truly understand that my cancer diagnosis was actually experience for my good and one that I needed. An added bonus was that it’s also been able to ben-efit others. So your “trial” or “trouble” may not just be for your “experience” and or “opportunity”. There are many others that could potentially need it and or benefit. Richman (2007) states,

“I’ve learned that the way I respond to trials can have a great effect on whether they become roadblocks in my life or expressways to learning and growth. When I anguish over difficulties, the experiences only serve to weigh me down. But re-membering that these trials are part of the great plan of happiness helps me to see them as opportunities to grow and learn.” And motivational speak-er, psychologist and former professor, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer’s said, “[When] you change the way you look at things the things you look at change,” (ThinkExist, 2012). So if you are look-ing at trials and troubles as something negative and horrible you may be missing the greatest gifts of experience and oppor-tunity. But you first may have to change the way you look at things; just like Dr. Dyer suggests. And this takes practice. But once you make that shift in your thinking, and the more you do this, the more natural and easier it will become.

I once lived in the beau-tiful small town of Hatch, Utah. Those people there are wonderful and you know what? They taught me how to pray for trials because that’s exactly what they do! Yup, that’s right, they pray for trials. According to Richman (2007), “The trials of this life will ultimately lead to joy if we patiently trust in God’s plan and discover how to use adversity to grow stronger.” So the next time you catch yourself thinking or saying, “why me” think and say instead, “why not me,” and turn your trials and troubles into experiences and opportuni-ty. It really does work, but I guess you won’t know if you don’t try.

Dream BIG - READ The summer reading program kicked off with a bang on June 5th… The book “Fanny’s Dream” was read and acted out by Veldon Noyes, Lauren Jackson, Haley Peyton and Car-oline Vandyke. We played games and also read, “It’s a Book” and “I love my white shoes” while the children sang along on some parts! We played “Fairy Godmother Says” and

had a great time kicking off summer reading! Our goal is to create a positive library experience, to encourage life-long readers and espe-cially to encourage children to keep reading throughout the summer. A child can lose an entire grade level of reading throughout summer if they do not keep reading. The summer reading pro-gram is a way to get children excited about books! If you haven’t signed your children

up and made a reading goal, come in and do it! Next week our theme is “Nightly Ritu-als”. We will be having some special guests come that you WON’T want to miss. See you Tuesday, June 12th at 1:00 p.m. June 19th Fancy Nancy Pajama party (for the girls), Campout Extravaganza (for the boys) June 26th Nocturnal Animals (Cindy Micheli will show us the world of bats!) July 3rd Night Skies (Star lab from Thanksgiving Point! Crawl inside and see the con-stellations!) July 10th Things than go BUMP in the night! (End of summer reading party! Dress up like something that goes bump in the night, put your name in a jar for a drawing to get a free book!)

SUMMER READING

tHe lAuGhiNg pOiNt!!

Favorite Candy Our phone rang late one night, and my wife Nancy picked it up. She said, “KitKat,” and hung up. “Who was that?” “Some boy for Carolyn,” she said, referring to our daughter. “What now?” I asked. “He plans to ask Carolyn to the prom and wanted to know what her favorite candy is. He’s going to put the in-vitation into a candy basket.” The next morning a basket of candy was on our porch. “But, Mom,” our daughter protested when she heard the story, “KitKat isn’t my favorite candy.” “I know,” Nancy said. “It’s mine.”

Outdoor Gear 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.”

WILL IT BE LONG? When my husband and I showed up at a very popular restaurant, it was crowded. I went up to the host-ess and asked, “Will it be long?” The hostess, ignor-ing me, kept writing in her book. I asked again, “How much of a wait?” The woman looked up from her book and said, “About ten minutes.” A short time later, we heard an announcement over the loudspeaker: “Wil-lette B. Long, your table is now ready.”

TORREY NEWS by Adus Dorsey

Fire danger remains high in Torrey due the massive amounts of cotton and lack of moisture. The Torrey Fire Department met in their regularly monthly meeting on Wednesday night to ser-vice the fire trucks and dis-cuss strategies. Residents and visitors are reminded to be cautious because as it won’t be Smoky the Bear that shows up to a fire, it will be the dedicated volun-teers in Wayne County that will have to do the job. Summer is the time for family gatherings and “Families are Forever” whether you like it or not. The relations of John Henry and Irma Hatch held their annual reunion in Aurora, Utah (Willow Bend) on Saturday the 2nd of June at the Town Park. Lucky for me there were so many Hatch relations there that they hardly noticed an extra attendee, at least until they all started playing music and some got to wondering who the mandolin picker was because I don’t look like a Hatch. The children of John Henry and Irma Hatch are Morris Hatch and Chester Hatch. Lloyd and Nellie Hatch of Salina, Cleoa H. and Thad Torgerson, Cedar City; Dee B. and Berneal Hatch, Loa; Zane E. and Thelma Hatch, Aurora; J. Gordon and Carol Hatch, Richfield. Together with their children and their chil-dren etc. etc, a good time was had by all. As is generally the case at

most Utah family reunions there was more than enough food to feed a small army and then some, so much so that even Chuck a Rama would have had a hard time to compete. Colorful salads of all kinds, slow simmered baked beans, midnight cole-slaw, pulled pork cooked to perfection, and so many kinds of deserts that many in attendance will be soon seeking weight loss advice from Jenny Craig. After dinner an auction of donated items was held to ensure the preservation of the Hatch family reunions existence and it was evi-dent money was no object. One of the most popular items was the two foot long crayola crayon water tubes. Bob Bagley wasted no time in the bidding and claimed about four of them and be-gan filling them with water and spraying anyone and everyone within a ten foot diameter. All kinds of kid chaos broke out after twen-ty some kids came into pos-session of the water guns that sent Uncles, Aunts and Grand Parents scrambling around the Aurora Park for safety. When all the items from the auction were sold, right down to the leftover burger buns, musical instruments began to appear from the back seat and trunks of cars and it was time for music. Uncle Gordon got out his five string guitar with what looked like a Buick cap on it, Dee Hatch pulled out two squeeze boxes and a

rotating harmonica. Kevin Hatch plugged in his bass and Stephen Hatch had a snare drum and some cym-bals for percussion. Cousin Landon had his guitar and played along and even sang a few tunes. Once the mu-sic really got started there was no stopping it. The old piano in the Aurora Scout house came alive and Cleoa’s grand son from Cedar wailed on his saxo-phone that had the crowd in hysterics. Even Cleoa and

Thad Torgerson got up and shuffled around the room to the Tennessee waltz. Susan Bagley and all her Grand Kids also got into the act all playing Grand Pa Dee’s harmonicas. Families are made up of individuals, but like that summer family reunion salad, it is the “sum of its parts” that can and will make it memorable, and from personal experience the Hatch’s know how to make an event memorable.

Is the delicious dressing that gives a Reuben its tanginess named after an actual chain of islands? You bet it is. The Thousand Islands are an archipelago that sits in the Saint Lawrence River on the U.S.-Canada border, and there are actually 1,793 of them, some of which are so small that they contain nothing more than a single home. So why is the dressing named after an archipela-go? No one’s quite sure. Some people claim that early film star and vaudevillian May Irwin, who summered on the Thousand Islands, named it, while others con-tend that George Boldt, the famed proprietor of the Waldorf-Astoria, gave the dressing its name because of his own summer place in the region. No matter who named it, it’s tough to beat on a sandwich.

One of the stories I hadn’t planned on telling as an old man, but am now prepared to, is the chestnut about how “in my day, we used to have to pound the 57 on glass Heinz bottles to force the stuff out.” Recently, 4 grad students at MIT revealed a new in-vention, a bottle coating called LiquiGlide that comes in solid form but works as a lubricant. When ketchup bottles are lined with the nano-engineered coating, the ketchup just “floats” out. As for why the team would spend their time perfecting the inside of condiment bottles, here’s what one of the students said: “It’s funny: Everyone is always like, ‘Why bottles? What’s the big deal’ But then you tell them the mar-ket for bottles - just the sauces alone, is a $17 billion market. And if all those bottles had our coating, we estimate that we could save about one million tons of food from being thrown out every year.”

From a class on Probability in Game Theory... Assuming, for the sake of the question: Playing cards in their current state have been aroundfor approximately eight centuries A deck of playing cards is shuffled to a random configuration one billion times per day. Every shuffle ever is completely (theo-retically) random and unaffected by biases caused by human shuffling and the games the cards are used for By “deck of cards”, I refer to a stack of unordered 52 unique cards, with a composition that is identical from deck to deck. This would, approximately, be on the order of 3 x 1014 random shuffles in the history of playing cards. If I were to shuffle a new deck today, completely randomly, what are the probabilistic odds (out of 1) that you create a new unique permutation of the play-ing cards that has never before been achieved in the history of 3 x 1014 similarly random shuffles? My first thought was to think that it was a simple matter but then I ran into things like Birthday Paradox. While it is not analogous (I would have to be asking about the odds that any two shuffled decks in the his-tory of shuffled decks ever matched), it has caused me to question my intuitive notions of Probability. What is wrong in my initial approach, if it is wrong? What is the true probability? And, if the probability is less than 0.5, how many more years (centuries?) must we wait, assuming the current rate of one billion shuffles per day, until we reach a state where the probability is 0.5+? 0.9+?

The latest issue of Monocle magazine has a fasci-nating article on the Business of the Olympics, from who’s supplying the timekeeping (Omega) to who’s in charge of the street cleaning (Cleanevent, an Austra-lian company!). But two things I can’t stop think-ing about are the businesses of flags and lab testing. This year, a French company will be making the Union Jack. In fact, the firm Doublet has a monopoly on gi-ant flags. Founded in 1832, Doublet provides all of the flags hoisted at the Olympics. It also supplies banners for the World Cup and Tour de France. But enormous polyester flags aren’t the company’s only specialty-it also makesthe smaller flags waved by spectators and the ones athletes drape over themselves during victory laps. Double is also quick to rush flags to countries that need them: after 9/11 the firm delivered over 100,000 flags to the US. All that flag-making helps the compa-ny turn a tidy profit-Doublet did over 35 million Euros in business last year. The amount of lab testing needed at the Olym-pics is another thing I hadn’t considered. To make this the cleanest games yet, over 400 urine samples will need to be screened each day. And to keep up with that pace,the Olympic committee has turned to Glaxo-SmithKline. 162 independent anti-doping scientists, working in a 4,400 square meter lab, will use GSK materials to process samples at a breakneck speed. It’s an incred-ibly ambitious goal, but if successful, the model will serve as the blueprint for all future Olympic Games.

HEALTHY FOODS: The Affordable Choice

By USDA Undersecretary Kevin Concannon Fresh fruits and vegetables? Key elements of a healthy diet, for sure. But many people of modest means, includ-ing those served by USDA’s nutrition assistance programs, wonder if they can afford to buy healthy foods like the wonderful fresh produce that can be found in summer abundance at America’s farmers’ markets. As USDA Undersecretary for Food, Nutrition and Con-sumer Services, I find that perception a source of concern because we work hard to encourage all Americans to make healthy food choices – particularly those participating in USDA’s nutrition assistance programs, from kids in school to the more than 46 million people participating in USDA’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Well, I’m pleased to say that a recent study by USDA’s Economic Research Service, “Are Healthy Foods Really More Expensive? It Depends on How You Measure the Price,” found that healthy food choices, like fresh fruits and vegetables, may be more affordable than people think. They found that while it is easy to buy “cheap” calories by using less-healthy foods, there are many healthy food choices that cost no more per portion than less nutritious foods. Measured by the cost per portion, or per pound, grains, vegetables, fruit, and dairy foods are actually less expensive than most protein foods and foods high in satu-rated fat, added sugars, and/or sodium. This is great news for all those trying to get by with a limited food budget – like people receiving SNAP benefits. You don’t have to compromise on good nutrition just be-cause money is tight. And just in time for summer. If you haven’t been to one of the nearly 7,200 farm-ers’ markets across the country, I encourage you to do so. Farmers’ markets offer shoppers a wonderful place to find the fresh fruits and vegetables and other local produce so important to a healthy diet – particularly now when farm-ers’ markets are practically bursting with a bounty of sum-mer produce. USDA strongly supports farmers’ markets. And the Food and Nutrition Service, which I oversee, has farmers’ market programs for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participants, for seniors, and for WIC mothers to help provide healthy food for them and their children. We also encourage farmers markets to accept SNAP electronic benefit transfer (EBT) cards, which makes it easier for SNAP participants to make purchases. Farmers markets are the ultimate win-win situation. They’re a win for customers because they can easily buy the freshest produce available. They’re a win for produc-ers because they are a convenient local market for their products. They also provide a chance for customers and producers to meet face to face and build better understanding of com-munity agriculture and what customers want. So visit a local farmers’ market today – you’re in for a treat. And remember, fresh fruits and vegetables are not only the healthy choice – they’re the affordable choice, too.

OBITUARIESInez B. Hunt

10/2/24 - 5/29/12

Bicknell, Utah - Inez Brinkerhoff Hunt, age 87, of Bick-nell, died May 29, 2012 in Loa. Mom was born in Bick-nell, October 2, 1924, the youngest child of George C. and Emma Jane Snow Brinkerhoff. She was educated in local schools until age 14 when her parents sent her to Salt Lake City where she attended Roosevelt Junior High School and later East High School, graduating with honors in 1942. While at East she began dancing with Virginia Tanner's newly formed dance troupe where she studied and per-formed at the McCune School through high school. Dance was her first love and she cherished her time with Ms. Tan-ner and the other students at the school. While visiting home during the summer of her soph-omore year she met and began dating our dad, Loyd G. Hunt. They continued dating and finally eloped and were married February 21, 1942 in Evanston, Wyoming. They were later sealed in the Manti LDS Temple. Nine children were born of their union, Sandra, Candice (E. Kay Black-burn), Marsha (Stephen Jackson), George A. (Mary Mil-burn), Virginia (Thomas A. Jeffrey), Gilbert L. (Julie How-ard), Lisa (Gary Leaming), Natalie (Marty Jensen) and R. Troy (Nicole Faust). Dad, Sandra and Marsha predeceased her. At the time of her death, Mom had 30 grandchildren and 37 great-grandchildren. Mom always placed high im-portance on education. All of her grandchildren of suitable age have graduated college, with several earning advanced degrees. Mom was active in church and civic activities. She particularly enjoyed teaching the Boy Scouts which she did for over 30 years, earning the coveted Silver Beaver Award from the Boy Scouts of America for her service. Mom was an avid reader who devoured books of all types. She passed on her love of reading to her children who share her passion for the written word. Mom lived a life of service - to her family, her friends and her community. She was a pillar of strength to all who knew her and her life was an example to those she en-countered and befriended.. We will miss her dearly but will fondly remember her many kindnesses and exemplary be-havior. Funeral Services will be held Tuesday, June 5, 2012 at 1:00 P.M. in the Thurber LDS Ward Chapel in Bicknell, Utah, where friends may call and greet the family from 11:00am to 12:30pm.

She is the oldest of 4 children, Lowell (de-ceased) and Gatha, Rock Springs, Wyoming, Homer Lars-en, Bountiful, Utah, Richard and Connie Larsen, Bicknell, Utah and sister-in-law Myrna Larsen (deceased). Phyllis grew up in Bicknell, Utah where she helped her parents farm and began a lifetime of gathering friends. She married James P Heaton on February 28, 1943, in Bicknell. Their marriage was later solemnized in the Manti Temple. After their marriage they lived in Bicknell for a few years before moving to Huntington, Utah.

In 1957, with their young family, they moved to Mon-ticello, Utah where they raised their children. Phyllis still spends her summers with her daughter and son-in-law in Monticello where she enjoys farming (i.e. gardening) and visiting all her old friends. Phyllis and Jimmy spent 10 years being snow-birds be-fore they bought a home in Washington, Utah. Jimmy died on March 11, 1998.

ESCALANTE NEWSMarlene Haws Ph: 826-4859 • [email protected]

The Memorial Day fes-tivities are so close to high school graduation that the Seniors didn’t get much recognition this year. May-be their pictures will be in the paper this week but even so I am going to list their names and tell them how proud we all are of them. They are: Alex Chris-tensen, son of Chris and Jenifer Christensen; Lind-sey Coleman, daughter of Shane Coleman, Boulder; Zoee Johnson, daughter of Kory and Candice John-son, Boulder; Aaron Keefe, daughter of Kim and Gary Harding and David and Michelle Keefe; Marina LeFevre, daughter of Dell and Gladys LeFevre, Boul-der; Brandon Nez, son of George and Lisa Nez; Emily Singletary daughter of Renee’ Singletary and Leland Sorensen, son of Laura and Ted Engberg. “Congratulations and Good Luck” to all of them in their future endeavors. Florence Alvey has had visits from both her daughters. Helen and Rick Pruitt came from Rich-field and stayed overnight. They mowed everything while they were here and sprayed the orchard. Then Lucinda and Neuman Dun-can came from Cedar City. They brought their young-est daughter, Courtney and their oldest daughter, Heidi Gilmore. Heidi is a single mom raising 5 chil-dren, Miles, Ethan, Abigail and twins, Paige and Piper and teaching in Washing-ton City. She is to be com-mended. They all came bringing seeds and plants to plant a garden for Florence. These were her Mother’s Day gifts. They will prob-ably be back to help with the weeding in a couple or three weeks. But they will have to hurry or Florence will have it all done! Tom and Marilyn Jack-son were in town for a day or two. They were thrilled to report that they will be getting two more grand-children before the year is over. JaNae and Michael Aston, and Wayne and Shauna Jackson are expect-ing in October and Decem-ber. The Jacksons attended a Jackson Family Reunion in Richfield on their way back to Idaho. The four Mounteer girls came from Salt Lake to decorate graves for Memo-rial Day. Marva, Peggy, Myrna and Carol. Peggy took a spill while they were here and buggered herself up a bit! She uses a cane and says she has one for every

occasion, but she must have brought the wrong one with her or it wasn’t used to our territory ‘cause she took a fall. Darn it. We hope she is okay now. I visited with Pauline Lott on the telephone and she was telling me about attending the last Women’s Conference at BYU. She ran into Jeri Hulce Woods while she was there. They hit it off and had a great time together. Apparently they spent little or no time together while they were both attending high school in Escalante. Jeri was a daughter of Rosella (Al-burn) Griffin and also lived with Leah and DeLane Griffin for a couple of years while she was here. It is always interesting to hear about our former high school graduates and what they are doing now. We hear that Sam Steed, Marysvale, is running for the Piute County Commis-sioner seat this year and Mason Simons is running for Justice of the Peace in Elko, Nevada. It was good to visit with Lola Alvey and Beth Blakey again in church this week. This time they brought their mom, Eva Dean Liston, with them. She is really looking good after having a bad sick spell. They are doing some work at Eva Dean’s home and hoping to get a little visiting done be-fore they go back to Maple-ton and Springville. The baby boy of Sandra and Randy Holcomb was blessed in the first ward on Sunday. His name is Ryden and he was blessed by Bish-op Greg Allen. Jason and Karen Griffin, St. George, and Chad and Jaimie Lyman, Loa, were the speakers in the second ward last week. Visiting that ward this week were Grena Kay Sear-le, St. George and Jason and Dawn Spencer, Cedar City. The Spencers were with a youth group who was vis-iting the area. They also visited with Lynn and Judy Griffin. Our sincere condolences to Rose and McKay Bailey and their whole extended family at the passing of Rose’s mom, Agnes Little-field, Tropic. She passed away on May 28, and her funeral was June 1, 2012 in Tropic. Justin Marsh was in town helping his dad, Sharon Dale Marsh, get the cattle corralled and ready for Mel Brooks to haul them to pas-ture in Spry. Carlyle Shurtz had most of his family here on the weekend.

There were lots of BYU students visiting the First Ward on Sunday. They said it was their Arts class. My sister, Geraldine Lis-ton, said she visited with the family of Bill Griffin at the cemetery on Memo-rial weekend. Bill had his children there: Nicki and Evan Excell, Brian and Sue Lynn Griffin, Jeanette Braithwaite and Boyd Grif-fin. Boyd had his guitar and they were singing at the gravesite of their wife and mother, Dawn Griffin. I’ll bet she was there in spirit and enjoying every minute of it! She put a lot of time and music into her family while she was here. Have any of you checked out the website, skalooza.com, to see if your high school yearbook is on it yet? Kenneth Shurtz has done a lot of work on our Escalante High School books. It is free and it‘s re-ally great! Good job Ken! The McKnight Dance Company is having it’s fi-nal performance this satur-day, June 9th at 7 P.M. at the Escalante high School Auditorium. They have been preparing for this for the past nine months. They have ballet, tap, contem-porary and a great finale. They have eighteen fellow townspeople in their com-pany so they really hope to see a full auditorium of supportive friends and fam-ily in attendance.

VISITING SPECIALISTS FOR JUNE 2012

This is Panguitch’s first big weekend of the summer, it’s the Quilt Walk Festival. Its eat Orton’s seed and feed, regardless of the size of your property. Need lawn care tools H&R has what ever you can use to care for your garden. If H&R doesn’t have it you don’t need it.Shop local, support our small business, many of your pustarted off last night with the Chocolate Fest at the old High School and I hope you didn’t get sick pigging out on all of the good stuff. The Quilt Walk classes start on Thursday at PHS during the day, with instructors from all over the Country coming to teach the latest techniques inquilting. JeriLu Houston is in charge of this section of the Festival and it will an excellent learning experi-ence for all those take partin the classes. The show and tell at lunch time is always fun and gives the Quilters an opportunity to show off their talents, last yearone of the Quilters was a 10 year old that learned to quilt at last years Frontier Village. In the evenings, Thursday through Saturday,Elaine Baldwin will have her cast ready to go with another fine playof the earliest history of the settlers in Panguitch. This is always a treat for the cast to take part in this bit of history. A film was made down in Alton early in the winter with the Quilt walk-ers and let me tell you it re-ally works, it is slow but we ended up going quite aways. This year the din-ner theater will have Dutch oven meals, to go along with pioneer spirit. Saturday morning starts off with the Panguitch Li-ons Club all you can eat breakfast at Zions Bank. The Frontier Village at the High School, will have instructors there to teach candle making, soap, quilt-ing and all kinds of things the pioneers did to survive on the frontier. Also Larana Decker will have her fun petting zoo, so bring the kids so they can get an idea what it was like on the fron-tier, with out a Wall Mart. In the afternoon there will be a tractor parade and a car show and the tractors will go down to the Fair Grounds for an old fashion tractor pull. The car show will be put on by the Model A Club from Brian Head. If you have a car bring it, these car shows are fun and this club can give you all kinds of ideas on how to fix up your car. In the afternoon the Quilt walk race will take place so bring your kids and get them on a team, so they can take part in this event. There will be plenty of prizes for the kids and a lot of fun. The last event will be the closing night of the play, so come on outand take part in the fun. I really enjoyed the ar-ticle on observing the Ve-nus Transit by Kate Magar-gal, in last week Insider. It was really interesting that the Venus transit has only occurred 7 times since the early 1600s. Unlike the So-lar Eclipse that lasted only about an hour, this will take Venus7 hours to pass in front of the sun. I hope you also read this article and viewed

this phenomenon with the proper eye wear. We cer-tainly have been treated with some solar events. Last Monday there was a partial Lunar Eclipse, it oc-curred as the moon was set-ting in the west about 6:00 am. and was about a 30% Eclipse. In last weeks Insider was an official Republican Ballot, for a primary elec-tion on June 26. The Gar-field County School Board District 2, is a non partisan election and any registered voter can vote for this posi-tion, you do not have to be a Republican to vote. I hope each an every parent that has kids in the Panguitch schools comes out and vote. If you don’t vote and the current Board members from Panguitch keep cut-ting our best educators, you have no one to blame butyourselves. Melanie Drap-er, Todd Moonie and Brian Breamner are vying for this position. It is going to be an inter-esting summer, our dollar is stronger and the Euro is down, which could mean less Europeans, however there seems to be a lot of Orientals on the buses and the Park is on a record year. Oil is down about $25 dol-lars a barrel in the last month. Don’t expect gas prices to come down anytime too soon, Panguitch does have some of the lowest prices on gas in the area and by far the lowest diesel around. Exxon has replaced Wall Mart as the leading compa-ny on the Fortune 500 and the 3rd and 4th places are also oil companies. High fuel prices forces every-thing you buy to go up andthey never come back down. The people are doing their part, oil storage is at a twenty two year high and the same with natural gas.Maybe people need to look at the profits these compa-nies are making and don’t believe that they are enti-tled to them. Our agriculture water is here just in the nick of time, with all the wind most everyone lawn are really dry. Its lawn mowing time again, for your fertilizer needs or lawn seeds, you can’t brchases will be asgood as you can get at the big box stores. Pat, Shawn and Teah are having a great time in Mex-ico, seeing all the sights and climbing around on the pyramids and just having fun. They are at the Doc-tors home that Teah spent 6 months at to learn Spanishand they were impressed. Well hopefully I will fig-ure out how to send this off.

Stay WellMack O.

‘Tis the season for fruit tree questions. Many hom-eowners are concerned about frost damage, a disease called fire blight, when to spray for coddling moth and about blisters or lesions on pear and apple leaves. Consider this information. • Frost damage: With the recent warm temperatures, many trees blossomed earlier than normal. Unfortu-nately, warm temperatures have been interspersed with cold weather. The critical temperature at which damage occurs is 28 F. Within the next few weeks, if the blossoms were not greatly damaged by frost, fruit will be visible on the tree. • Fire blight: Fire blight is a bacterial disease that affects many apples and pears. The disease spreads through spores that are in the ooze produced by can-kers in previously infected trees. The ooze is released just before blossoms open and contains nutrients at-tractive to insects. The insects feed on this ooze and pick up spores. When the insects pollinate newly opened flowers, the bacterial spores can enter to cre-ate new infections. Preventative sprays are available from most garden centers and farm stores. These are only effective when the trees are in blossom. Oth-erwise, once an infection has occurred, it must be pruned out. For more information about fire blight, see the USU Fact sheet at: http://extension.usu.edu/files/publications/factsheet/fire-blight-08.pdf. • Codling moth: The point at which to start spraying varies greatly from year to year. However, the USU Plant Pest Diagnostic Lab has released dates for most Utah counties. Along the Wasatch Front, the spray date occurred in mid-May. In colder areas, the date varies from late May to early June. The lab e-mails regular updates detailing potential pest problems and how to manage them for most areas of the yard includ-ing fruit trees, gardens, ornamental plants and turf. To subscribe to the updates and for more information, visit http://utahpests.usu.edu/ipm. In the meantime, a good way to minimize damage from coddling moth is to thin the fruit so there is one fruit for every 6 to 12 inches of branch. The moth prefers to lay eggs where apples or pears touch. • Blister mite: The culprits are usually small mites that are only visible with a powerful magnifying glass or a dissecting scope. They cause pear and apple leaves to have black or brown blisters. The condition looks similar to apple scab, a fungal disease. However, ap-ple scab is extremely uncommon in our dry climate. The mites feed on sap from the leaves in the spring, and over a short period of time, enter the leaves and the lesions become evident. Initially the mites cause only cosmetic damage. Later in the season, they can cause the same lesions or blisters on fruit. The mites are usually only problematic in trees that are not prop-erly managed. The only way to control them is by ap-plying dormant oil or sulfur in the fall or early spring.

JUNE IS NATIONAL SAFETY MONTH National Safety Month is an opportunity for local businesses and residents to learn about the leading causes of unintentional in-juries and deaths, and to promote safe and healthy behaviors around the clock. This year’s observance ad-dresses home safety, ergo-nomics, the prevention of slips, trips and falls, and driving safety. The cost of unintentional injuries to Americans and their employers exceeds $730 billion nationally, or $6,200 per household, and causes great suffering among individuals and theirfamilies. Each June, the Utah

Safety Council and the Na-tional Safety Council part-ner to encourage organiza-tions and their employees to observe and participate in National Safety Month. Weekly themes are selected based on where the great-est number of preventable injuries and deaths are oc-curring in our workplaces, homes and communities. Week One: Take Safe-ty Home. One out of 29 people in the United States are disabled one full day or more by unintentional inju-ries received in the home. Disabling injuries are more numerous in the home than the workplace and in motor- vehicle crashes combined.

In Utah, the top five leading causes of unintentional in-juries and death in the home are: falls, poisoning, fires and burns, choking and suf-focation and drowning. Week two: Ergonom-ics. Every year, millions of American workers are dis-abled by cumulative trauma disorders. Ergonomics is one of the major causes of this problem. Week three: Fall Preven-tion. In 2009, more than 26,100 Americans died as a result of falls and more than 8.5 million were treated in the emergency room for a fall related injury. Week four: Driving Safe-ty. In 2010, a motor vehicle crash occurred in Utah ev-ery 10 minutes, a person was injured in a crash every 24 minutes, and a person died in a crash every 34 hours. “The need for public edu-cation is clear, which is the goal of observances such as National Safety Month,” Robert Parenti, President of the Utah Safety Coun-cil, said. “This month high-lights the power we have as individuals, businesses and communities to increase awareness and help pre-vent the leading causes of unintentional injuries and deaths.” Communities across the country will be celebrat-ing National Safety Month throughout June. The Utah Safety Council has several resources to help compa-nies and individuals plan and observe National Safe-ty Month activities. More information about National Safety month and the Utah Safety Council can be found at www.utahsafety-council.org. The Utah Safety Coun-cil is a membership based private not-for-profit orga-nization. The mission of the Utah Safety Council is to promote safety and health by providing education, services and products. The Utah Safety Council’s pro-grams cover three safety venues; occupational safe-ty, traffic safety, and home and community safety.
