Vote for Justice Center back on Ballot

BLUES BROTHERS!!!!Oh Brother!!

“…Whereas today, 100 years with the help of its people, the community

has developed into a thriving “Town of Excellence”….”

~ Governor Freudenthal on Glenrock’s Centennial

Converse County would like a new Justice Center and they are coming to you, the good people of the County to decide if it will come to pass. According to the Converse County website’s Justice Center downloadable file, the ‘needs’ assessment that was performed decided that, due to current stan-dards, capacity issues, and the safety of employees and inmates, the current jail is inadequate. The jail, which is required to accept detainees from all agencies in the County--not just the Sheriff’s office, is not fea-sible to remodel or enlarge and statistics indicate a serious current and future bed shortage.Something definitely needs

to be done to fix the current situation, but what are the options? According to the document, the options are: to change nothing, which will continue to house in-mates in other facilities thus causing a negative economic impact of dol-lars leaving the county to pay for the inmates’ hous-ing (and also causing a huge liability); or to build a new facility which will require voters to approve a new sales tax. And that, dear readers, is where you come in. On November 3, 2009, a one-question ballot will be put forth so the residents of Converse County can de-cide if they want to allow the County:‘to collect $28,514,695

and interest earned thereon for the constructing, fur-nishing, and equipping of a new Converse County Justice Center, which will include the Sheriff’s Of-fices and support facilities, detention housing, County Attorney’s Offices, Clerk of District Court’s Offices and District and Circuit Courts’ The money will be col-lected through a 1% spe-cific purpose sales and use excise tax, until the proper amount is raised…then the tax increase will be removed and we will go back to our normal 5%. It is not known at this time how many years this will take. Converse County Commis-sioner Mike Colling had this to say about the pro-

posed sales tax increase: “There is a definite need for it,” he stated, “We’re trying to get a lot of infor-mation out--we’re going to have pictures of the build-ing around, so [the people] can see it. We’re going to try to get enough informa-tion out so they know the need for it.” One of the biggest points in the needs assessment was the fact that Converse County has to ship its ‘ex-tra’ inmates to other facili-ties due to the bed shortage at the current jail. “Right now we’re sending a lot of our [inmates] out of town--we’re paying other coun-ties to house them, which isn’t cheap,” Colling con-tinued, “It’s not just the expense of putting them in jail in other counties, it’s the expense of transpor-

tation and the manpower costs we have to pay to go and get them for court and take them back to the jail.” While trying to decide about the tax increase, there are several things one should take into consider-ation. One of those things is the fact that the grocery items not taxed now will not be affected with the increase--only those items that have tax attached now will see the 1% addition. For more information about the new Justice Center, visit www.conver-secounty.org Stay posted to The Bird in the coming weeks for more information as it becomes available on this most im-portant of topics, as well as the November 3rd vote.

Suddenly, without warning, it’s that time of year again. You can almost sense it in the air. As July turned to Au-gust, it could mean only one thing for both parents and students: school.

This week, cars began ap-pearing in the parking lot at the high school. Practice for fall sports started. There were rumors of schedules that needed to be picked up and teacher workdays were underway.

Parents look oddly happy, and kids look discouraged. Why? This Wednesday marks the first day of the 2009-2010 school year, at 7:52 a.m. no less. And for those who don’t know, the sun is up by then. No more sleeping in, and no more summer fun. It’s back to the books and back to classes.

See a student o the streets and ask if they’re ready for school to start and you more

than likely get a unanimous “No.” Ask parents the same question and you get a cheer-ful “Yes.” Sure there will be other sum-mers, but unfortunately for students and fortunately for parents once that bell rings on Wednesday, the summer

of 2009 is officially over. And while summer doesn’t actually end until Septem-ber 21, for Glenrock youth it might as well be August 26.

So as parents breath a sigh of relief, students don’t forget picture day is this Friday.

ITS THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME...... of the YEAR!

CONTROVERSIAL DEER CREEK DAYS INCIDENT TURNS INTO BLESSING FOR LOCAL RESIDENT

Speaking of picture day... the first person to email [email protected] and tell The Glenrock Bird who this Glenrockian of picture days gone by... wins a Glen-rock Bird T-Shirt. Photo courtesty Miss Andrea Barker

Staff Reporter - Pat Callahan

Some of you may of noticed a popular new t-shirt around town. Some may even al-ready own one. But if you haven't seen or purchased one, there is actually some good that is coming out Bud Grose's August 1st tas-ing incident. It's in the form of these t-shirts that read "If you missed Deer Creek Days 2009, you missed a shock-ingly good time."

According to Pat Grose, Bud Grose's daughter-in-law, the idea came from a family friend. The friend originally wanted to raise money for Grose's legal fees, but he de-clined the offer. As a result, family friends came up with another idea: go ahead and make the t-shirts but instead donate the profits to Gail Hoyer, who is battling stage 4 breast cancer. Pat Grose

also said the proceeds would be donated to breast cancer research.

The t-shirts retail for $15.

Grose has already sold out of the shirts, but said there is a new batch on the way. How-ever, these shirts will read "If you missed Deer Creek Days 2009, you missed a shock-ing experience." Grose said the change in wording was due to the fact that "it really wasn't that good of a time."

To date, the family has sold 300 t-shirts. Once the new t-shirts are available, they can be purchased at the Shore-liner, the Deer Creek Lounge and directly from Pat Grose.

For more information or to purchase a t-shirt, Grose can be reached at 262-4156.

The Glenrock Paleontologi-cal Museum hosted a special guest this last week. Ben Miller, from Seattle, Wash-ington, came to the museum for his fourth straight sum-mer. Ben, now 18, is getting ready to go off to college this fall, but wanted to get some time in at the Paleon before he went. Miller has been attending similar digs since he was 9 years old and holds a special respect for Dr. Robert Bak-ker, world famous Paleon-tologist and the Paleon’s Ad-junct Curator. “I just follow Dr. Bakker around to the var-ious sites he’s been to,” Ben stated, and has ‘followed’ Bakker from Colorado to Montana to Wyoming along with his Aunt, Cherilyn Widell. Widell, who is from Maryland, takes a strong in-terest in her neices and neph-ews and spends time with them individually each year pursuing something they are interested in--in Ben’s case, that meant digging for fos-sils. “She makes an effort to support all of us in what we want to do,” Ben said appre-ciatively. Many years ago, when Dr. Bakker had--ac-cording to Miller--‘dropped off of the radar’, Ben and his Aunt Cherilyn thought they would have to wait a long time to find him and join him on another dig…..not so…. “We were going down the highway…and we saw a sign for the Paleon and we decided to stop,” Ben explains of how they found the Paleon Museum, “…and

we happened to mention that we’d been on a dig with Dr. Bakker and that we couldn’t find him, and the curator mentioned that he was…working with the Paleon and since then we’ve been com-ing here.” Going for a double-major in Geology and Biology, Miller, who will be attending college at Olivet Nazarene University near Chicago, admits that the Paleon was “very much so” influential in his major choices. “Through both working with the Pa-leon and Dr. Bakker, I came to determine that those ma-jors were fundamental for pursuing a career in Paleon-tology…rather than doing one or the other, I’d do them both and get the best of both worlds,” he said. And after college? “I hope to do gradu-ate work in Paleontology if I can find a way to do so,” Ben stated, “I’m definitely going to come back out here (to the Paleon) and work as much as I can.” So how does a young per-son who has been mentored by one group of people for the last four years feel about those people? “Absolutely fantastic!” Ben exclaimed, “I haven’t met a person [there] I don’t like…the people at the Paleon know what they’re doing and they enjoy what they’re doing, and they make you enjoy what they’re doing!” And what of his mentors? Sean Smith, Director of Pa-leontology for the Paleon Museum, has watched sev-

eral young people ‘grow up’

over the years at the museum and had this to say about Ben Miller: “Ben is great! He’s been able to come out here and from rather rough begin-nings (he was fourteen, after all), now…this year he’s giv-ing tours, he’s doing prepara-tion work, he’s understand-ing and picking up on things very quickly and I think he’s going to go far--he’s going to do well.” While the young people who come to the Paleon credit the museum for helping them

on their way, the staff of the

Paleon Museum knows just how lucky they are to expe-rience such wonderful young people and to see them grow into a career in the Paleonto-logical field is worth more than can be expressed. The museum is open Tues-day through Saturday from 9:00 to 5:00. For more in-formation on the Paleon Mu-seum or to find out about day or week-long digs, call 436-2667 or send them an e-mail at [email protected] .

A volleyball team with a local area player from Glenrock recently re-turned from Australia after winning the cham-pionship in the Down Un-der International Games. The tournament featured 6 teams from Australia and 10 teams from the United States. The team included 2 players from Wyoming, 5 from Mon-tana, and 2 from Loui-siana and named them-selves Wymoana. The Wymoana team went 6-1

in pool play, losing only to a team from Queensland, Australia. In bracket play Wymoana beat Oregon Blue in the quarterfinals 25-12, 25-19, and Oregon White in the semifinals 25-20, 25-19. Wymoana met New Mexico in the fi-nals, and the outcome was in Wymoana’s favor 25-27, 25-23, 15-9. The trip, sponsored by Internation-al Sports Specialists, in-cluded a week in Surfers Paradise, Australia and 3 days in Hawaii. While in

Australia the team took pictures with koalas, pet-ted kangaroos, watched Aboriginal dancers, vis-ited Australia’s largest theme park, and played beach volleyball. The time in Hawaii included going to a luau, snorkel-ing, and visiting Pearl Harbor. Wyoming team members included Erica Caves from Glenrock and Dawn DeMunbrun from Gillette. The team was coached by John Cupit from Bozeman, Montana.

GLENROCK’S OWN BLUES BROTHERS GET

NEW WHEELS!Jake and Elwood are sporting an awesome new ride these days. Glenrock’s own Blues Brothers found the 1974 Dodge Monaco in Michigan (it’s always the last place you look) and purchased it from a Blues Brothers tribute band. “It went from one tribute to the next,” El-wood said. “It’s a replica of the Blues Brothers’ [car] off the movie,” Jake said, “and so we bought it to be part of our show.”

The pair were on their way to Deadwood to ‘enjoy cool Deadwood nights’ and to ‘mingle with everybody up there’. The new (old) car is dressed similar to a police car and is equipped with a huge ‘speaker’ on top. “We thought about start-ing a new police depart-ment here in town,” Jake joked, “maybe for Roll-ing Hills.”

As the Glenrock Herder football team prepares for the upcoming season, practices kicked off on Monday, August 17th. A week from Saturday, on August 29th, the 2009 Herders face their first on the field test against several opponents at the Jamboree Scrimmage in Sheridan at 1 p.m. The scrimmage, includes conference opponents Big Horn and Tongue River. The Herders of-ficially open the season on the road September 4th against rival Kem-merer at 4 p.m.

Coach Ray Kumpula said the practices have been going well, and that the team began practicing in pads on August 20th. “Basically, we’re off to a real good start,” Kumpula said. “Seniors are showing pretty good leadership; they’re showing the younger kids the inten-sity that we need and hopefully when we start hitting in pads they’ll show them that part of the game also.” Kumpula said several players have had to switch positions, but he’s been pleased with the results so far. “The big, critical thing was our ability to get kids to move from one position

to another position. The pleasent surprise is that they are helping the team out, and they’re moving to help the team out. They’re sacrificing their own per-sonal desires for the bet-terment of the team and that’s real good to see.” Kumpula said former full-back Troy Pinkerton, has been moved to the line. Additionally, Jon Likes has moved from running back to guard and tight end, while Colter Macor-

mic has moved from tight end to guard. According to Kumpula, all three have handled the transition ex-ceptionally well.

On the offensive side of the ball, Kumpula said getting the motions down is still something the team will continue to work on. “We’re working really hard on getting our steps down and it’s improv-ing.” He added that the team’s stances and steps are improving, which for a young team is always a good sign.

As far as the defense is

concerned, Kumpula said it is hard to tell. “Prac-ticing in pads, we’ll find out,” he said.

GHS HERDER FOOTBALL TEAM READY FOR FIRST SCRIMMAGE


With the start of vol-leyball season less than a week away a young Herder team is gearing up for what it hopes to be another success-ful season. However, after coming off a 20 win season it is hard to know what to expect from a Herder squad that returns few play-ers with varsity experi-ence.

“I do have three girls with some pretty solid varsity experience that played a significant amount, but I only have one returning starter.” stated Coach Tera Chandler. Last year, in the regional tourna-ment, the Herders made it to the second round before losing to confer-ence foe Douglas.

The returning starter is outside hitter and op-posite right side hitter junior Shelby Stew-art who played in 72 games last year, aver-aged 33 kills, 29 blocks, 13.7 serve aces, was the third hitting leader on the team and averaged

2.2 digs per game.

In an unfortunate turn of events, Christine Dona, a senior, and one of the starters who would have returned is out due to back surgery. “It’s a pretty sig-nificant injury,” Chandler said. Dona had to have back surgery this summer, and Chandler said she will most likely be out for as much as half or more of the volleyball season.Dona, a right side and

middle hitter was third on the team in kills, reg-istered 27 blocks, was the fourth leading hitter, and averaged .5 assists per game while adding 24 digs. Dona played in 71 games last season

Other girls who return with varsity experience include juniors Alexis Durbin, Erica Caves and senior Lexie Blackburn

Cyera Collins would like to try to play our liebro, and that’s a big position.” (Essentially, a libero acts as the seventh player on the court and is allowed to replace a player that is in a back row position.However, the libero is

restricted to perform as a back row player and isn’t allowed to complete an attack hit from anywhere if at the moment of con-tact, the ball is entirely above the top of the net, or block, attempt to block, or serve).

Those hoping to make a mark on the varsity squad include Blackburn, a set-ter and defense specialist, who averaged 20 kills, 7.4 serve aces, 2.6 assists

to go along with 24 digs.Juniors Durbin and Caves are also expected to make significant contributions. Durbin, a middle hit-ter, was fifth on the team in kills (75), fourth in blocks (24, 12 solo), third in aces, averaging 13.7, sixth in hitting and eighth in digs (51). Caves, a set-ter and right side hitter, on the other hand was elev-enth in kills (7), fifth in aces, averaging 7.2, third in assists (101) and sixth in digs (84). Durbin and Caves played in 57 and 64 games respectively.

The Herders also bring back four seniors, eight juniors, 10 sophomores, and 16 freshmen.

Chandler said the biggest losses to overcome this year would be Janessa Clark, Nikki Tresch and liebro Hannah Dahlke, all who graduated last year.

While those losses will be difficult to overcome, Chandler said this year’s team strength lies in its height. “Our strengths for once, and I’m not exag-gerating this, is for the first time, we are probably

the tallest overall team in our conference, and we’ve never been a tall team,” she said. “Our height is going to be a big positive. We’ll have a good block, and so we should have a decent advantage there with our height.”

Chandler is optimistic about the upcoming sea-son, pointing to successes the team had at a number of summer camps this year. I’m really encour-aged. I think we have a re-ally good shot at finishing in the top two or three in our conference this year, which means we would qualify for state.

C’mon in! The Leather’s Fine!

When I lived in Douglas, WY I made my way to The Coop for an early breakfast a couple of times a week. Not because the food was terrific (although it was) but because each morning, at the back of the room was a large table of ranch-ers. These ranchers varied in age from about forty to ninety years old. Some were fathers and sons and even grandsons. On occasion mothers or grandmothers would join the group and the conversation was always lively. The discussion routinely covered how the calving was going, who was putting up the best hay and how much it cost, what equipment was the most reliable, who had the oldest tractor, water rights, horses and rodeos. I made an effort to get a table as near to them as possible. Their wealth of in-formation and easy camaraderie was delightful. They knew more about the land, the livestock and life than any one person could learn in a lifetime. For a future rancher wanna-be I knew there was no school in the land who could teach me as much as I could learn from my friendly eavesdropping sessions two mornings a week. But what I really came away with each day was a sense of family and community. It was clearly evident that sometimes three generations lived together in the same house or on the same land. Taking care of each other in their old age was not an issue. It was an expectation.

As I move into a caretaker position with my eighty-seven year old Aunt, something I hadn’t expected in my life, I am encouraged by the ex-ample set by this group of ranchers I didn’t even know. Raised by my cowboy grandfather, my Aunt Mary has given to others her entire life. She’s worked hard, had many careers and even now, at her advanced age has still goes to work everyday and volunteers each week at an Al-zheimer’s unit. She exemplifies honesty, trust-worthiness, a good work ethic, kindness, giving, and a God fearing lifestyle. Not only has she lived in the west her entire life she is the epit-ome of cowboy ethics and perseverance. Cow-girls watch out, for although she hasn’t been a rancher for nearly sixty years she has held that code of ethics dear and set a tough example to follow. It is my honor and pleasure to include her in my life. I hope that there are those who would come sit next to our table in a restaurant to listen to her words of wisdom, history and a life well lived.

*************************

Susan’s next series of articles will be all about those women out west that have influenced what it’s history and those that live the modern day west. “Western women have contributed an equal share to this still Wild West we love and it’s my guess that few cowboys would argue that fact.”

During these tough eco-nomic times, we all tend to hang on to our money tighter, but have you ever really taken a look at those odd-colored, little ‘paper’ notes you carry around in your wallet? They are full of pictures, numbers, symbols, and signatures--but what does it all mean? This Glenrock Bird re-porter visited the United States Bureau of Engrav-ing and Printing website to find answers to the questions regarding the one bill most of us seem to be the most familiar with: the dollar. So find one of these elusive little bills, take a good look at it and read on… -Faceplate Numbers and Letters are the small numbers and letters that can be found in the lower right corner and upper left corner of a bill. In the left corner is the Note Position Number. This consists of the Note Po-

sition Letter and a quadrant number. The combination indicates the position of the note on the plate from which it was printed. In the lower right corner, the Note Posi-tion Letter is followed by the Plate Serial Number. This identifies the plate from which the note was printed. -The backs of the bills feature images reflective of the his-tory of our nation: The Great Seal of the United States is on the $1. Mandated by the First Continental Congress in 1776, the Great Seal took many years of work by mul-tiple individuals and com-mittees before final adoption in 1782. The Department of State is the official keeper of the seal. Following is a description of the obverse (front) and reverse (back) sides of the seal: Obverse Side of the Great Seal The most prominent feature is the American Bald Eagle supporting the shield, or escutcheon. The eagle

holds an olive branch in it’s right talon , which sym-bolizes peace, with

13 olives and 13 leaves. The 13 leaves represent

the original colonies. In the left talon, the eagle holds 13 arrows, which repre-sents war. The eagle’s head is turned toward the olive branch, showing a desire for peace. The top of the shield repre-sents the Congress, the head of the eagle the Executive branch, and the nine tail feathers the Judiciary branch of our government. The 13-letter motto ‘E Pluribus Unum’ is printed on a rib-bon held in the eagle’s beak and means “Out of many, one”. The olive branch and 13 arrows denote the power of peace and war, which is exclusively vested in Con-gress. Reverse Side of the Great Seal The most prominent feature is a pyramid with 1776 in Roman numerals at the base. The pyramid stands for signifies strength and du-ration. The pyramid is unfin-ished, signifying the United

States’ future growth and goal of perfection. A sun-burst and an eye are above the pyramid, representing the overseeing eye of God. The 13-letter motto ‘Annuit Coeptis’ means “He [God] has favored our undertak-ings”. Below the pyramid is the motto ‘Novus Ordo Seclorum’ which means “A new order of the ages” signi-fy the beginning of the new American era in 1776. The motto ‘In God We Trust’ first appeared on U.S. coins in 1864. However, it was not until 1955 that a law was passed which stated that thereafter all new designs for coins and currency would bear that inscription. DID YOU KNOW?-The first paper currency issued by the U.S. Depart-ment of the Treasury were Demand Notes Series 1861.-During the Civil War pe-riod, the Bureau of Engrav-ing and Printing was called upon to print paper notes in denominations of 3 cents, 5

cents, 10 cents, 25 cents, and 50 cents. The reason for this is that people hoarded coins because of their underlying value which created a dras-tic shortage of circulating coins.-If you had 10 billion $1 notes and spent one ev-ery second of every day, it would require 317 years for you to go broke.-Currency paper is composed of 25% linen and 75% cot-ton. Red and blue synthetic fibers of various lengths are distributed evenly through-out the paper. Prior to World War I the fibers were made of silk.-Between the Fort Worth, Texas and the Washington, DC printing facilities ap-proximately 18 tons of ink per day are used.-Martha Washington is the only woman whose portrait has appeared on a U.S. cur-rency note. It appeared on the face of the $1 Silver Cer-tificate of 1886 and 1891, and on the back of the $1 Silver Certificate of 1896.

As we go through our day, earning money, spending money, or just trying to hang on to it a little longer, we rarely consider the very bills our livelihoods depend on. Our forefathers spent a lot of time and effort making sure the symbols used stood for something solid--something grounded--the very fabric of the American way of life is essentially ‘woven’ into our currency. It’s definitely something to think about the next time you plug that dol-lar into the pop machine….just what is a dollar worth to you?…guaranteed it was worth a great deal more than 100 pennies to those men and women who began our great country.

For this week’s installment about the European travels of four lovely ladies from Glenrock during a tour of the Wyoming Music Ambas-sadors, we turn to the journal of Paula Flynn, pianist, vo-calist, chaperone, and all-around awesome gal! At the end of last week’s article, the group had just left France on their way to Switzerland: “This trip has most definitely opened my eyes to how ig-norant I am on Life’s Learn-ing Curve. I really haven’t even gotten started…Traveled from Paris to Crans-Montana Switzerland today. The drive along Lake Geneva was beyond breath-taking. Traffic got lighter as we went along. My first glimpse of the Swiss Alps was similar to the Grand Tetons, but then we began driving between two ranges of the Alps. The valley floor stretched lazily along the Rhone River for what looked like an eternity. The farms along the valley floor look like crazy quilts. A vineyard with its rows of grapes run-ning due north/south would end, and a V-shaped field of corn running northwest/southeast is right next door. There doesn’t appear to be any rhyme or reason to the layout of the farms. It looks more like the Swiss use ev-ery scrap of land available to them regardless of what is next to it. I saw a monstrous house atop a high hill sur-rounded by a massive vine-yard. It looked very peace-ful, but I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how they got up the hill to the house, there were no visible roads. Then we turned a corner and I saw the tram that went up from the valley floor to the house. Too wild!

The Rhone River which feeds the lake is a milky color. I was told this is be-cause it is glacial water and carries a lot of minerals that then settle out in Lake

Geneva. Lake Geneva is a brilliant blue nestled be-tween a range of Swiss Alps and French Alps, it receives warm Mediterranean sun-shine throughout the year, hence the vineyards on the slopes of the Alps.We finally arrived in Crans-Montana and what a wel-come we received! Two sweet little ladies holding a massive banner saying “Welcome Wyoming Am-bassadors” were standing at the town’s main park/cen-ter. It was very chilly out, but they were thrilled to do this for us. When we arrived at our hotel, my roommate came bobbing down the stairs squealing with delight. She made me cover my eyes before I walked into our room. I’m so glad she did. The miraculous view of the Mountains caused my heart to leap--tears sprang instant-ly to my eyes. I have never beheld anything more glo-rious--more beautiful--more peaceful--more……oh, I’m homesick.The welcome of the two ladies coupled with the 4-course dinner has put all of us at ease after the hustle and chaos of London and Paris. The anxiety of the push-push of the last 7 days is gone. I am at peace here. We have 3 hours to “do what we want” in the morning and then we are off to Castle Chillon and a stroll along Lake Geneva.

NEXT DAY: Today was uber-relaxing. We were al-lowed to mosey around the town for a few hours. There are tons of fun shops here. There are 5 lakes (lacs) in the town. The outdoor hock-ey rink with bleachers was being “sanded” for a horse jumping competition. I hear it is a rather large affair.

The shop owners were very accommodating. One lady understood English, but continued to spout French at me as though I under-

stood it. I muttered out what phrases I knew, she smiled grandly, and went on a huge string of French. I laughed, waved, & took off. I think she was thrilled I had bought 200 grams of chocolate. YUM! Be careful of the chocolate with the cay-enne pepper in it. It’ll steal your breath away.

We were given a tour of Castle Chillon of the medieval period. AMAZ-ING! To see paintings on the chapel ceiling that dated to the 13th centu-ry…WOW!

Tonight’s concert was rivaled by no previous experience I can think of……and I’ve done sev-eral concerts. The crowd was brilliant; so warm & receptive. They clapped along, several standing ovations, waving huge American flags, drinking beer and dancing….these people are a hoot!

I did experience one of life’s more embarrassing moments tonight. I sat down to play at the pia-no and my folding chair folded up underneath me. Down I went! Not sure of what to do and wanting to allay the fearful expres-sion in the Swiss’s eyes, I stood and took a bow to raucous applause. What else was I to do? The kids played brilliantly! Tomorrow we are off to Zermatt and the mighty Matterhorn!” Next week in The Glen-rock Bird: more from Paula Flynn about the Eu-ropean trip as the group heads from Switzerland to Austria and is involved in an international ‘fon-due incident’.

“AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS (well...almost!)” Continued

U.S. Representatives Cyn-thia Lummis, R-Wyo., has introduced the “Statewide Public Television Access Act,” to enable every DISH Network subscriber in the state to have full access to Wyoming Public Televi-sion.

“Currently, DISH Network subscribers in 19 counties across Wyoming do not have access to the unique and quality programming offered by Wyoming Public Television,” Lummis said. “Satellite companies are prohibited by federal law to provide Wyoming Public TV to those 19 counties. My bill would remove the legal barriers to bringing state-wide public television to every community in Wyo-ming.”

The federal government plays a big role in determin-ing what television stations customers are allowed to watch. Federal law divides the United States into 210 local market areas. Each local area has its own lo-cal television station for the four major networks as well as PBS, and each local area has copyright protection for those networks. Currently, only DISH Network offers local television service in Wyoming, while DirecTV requires a combination of satellite service and digital antennae.

“The idea behind the government’s role in telecommunications was to make sure that people in each area had guaranteed access to lo-cal news, weather and sports from their own local community. Unfor-tunately, it has resulted in so-called local bound-aries in Wyoming that are simply absurd. Of Wyoming’s 23 coun-ties, 16 of them are part of another state’s local area. Put another way, over 50 percent of Wyoming’s television households do not have access to Wyoming news weather and sports. That simply doesn’t make sense.”

“As satellite subscriber-ship continues to climb, particularly in rural areas, a growing number of people in Wyoming will be unable to access the state’s public television station if this is-sue is not resolved. Failure to address the issue has put Wyoming Public Television in a difficult situation. Their broadcast license requires them to broadcast emer-gency notifications to the entire state, but these federal restrictions make it impos-sible for them to do so.”

The bipartisan bill is cospon-sored by U.S. Representa-tives Bennie Thompson, D- Miss., Carol Shea-Porter, D-N.H., David Price, D-

N.C., Mike Simpson, R-Idaho, and Robert Aderholt, R-Ala.

Lummis has also joined U.S. Representative Mike Ross, D- Ark., in introducing the “Television Freedom Act,” which will allow everyone in Wyoming the option to view Wyoming based net-work television.

There are 18 state-wide public television networks nationwide. State-wide net-works are charged by their state to serve the entire state, and each of them does so by a series of over-the-air trans-lators. However, the rules governing local broadcasts prevent state-wide networks from meeting their state’s mandate with respect to satellite television. In many of the rural areas, like Wyo-ming, satellite offers an im-portant solution to receiving clear television signals.

Published in The International Library of PoetryWhere am I?

I cannot see. The blackness of death is closing in.Am I dead?

I cannot breathe. Though I feel the killing pain as clear as night.

It hurts . . . it hurts . . .My heart is slowing. My head is thudding. I feel icy wind blow my hair around my bloody face.

Knowing that nobody shall ever find me.Realizing I'm lost.

"Oh God, help me," I whisper. But my last words were carried away with the wind.

Forever lost.Just like me . . . my heart goes silent.

While speaking Monday, August 17th at the Casper Rotary Club, Wyoming Senator Mike Enzi reiterated his 10 steps to trans-form American health care. The Senator assured those in attendance that he will con-tinue to work diligently towards reforming the current state of health care.

Wy -

oming Senator Mike Enzi reiterated opposi-tion for calls for a gov-ernment run health care plan Monday August 17th while speaking at the Casper Rotary Club. Enzi said health care re-form is desperately need-ed, but complete govern-ment control would only worsen the situation.

Instead, according to Enzi ,Congress should approach health care re-form in steps, instead of trying to put together an all encompassing pack-age.

According to Demo-crats on Capital Hill, the health care issue is so im-mense that reforms can't be made with one major bill, which is what the Obama administration and fellow congressional Democrats are pushing for.

Enzi, who has a history of working across party lines on legislation, again pointed to the concept of "10 Steps to Transform Health Care in America," a bill he introduced in the last Congress, which in-cluded other ideas put forward by both Repub-licans and Democrats as possible ways to im-prove health care.

Those 10 steps include:• Eliminates unfair tax

treatment of health insur-ance for all Americans, thereby expanding choices, coverage, and control over your health care• Increases affordable op-tions for working families to purchase health insur-ance through a standard tax deduction• Ensures affordable health insurance to low-income individuals through a re-fundable, advanceable, as-signable tax-based subsidy• Provides cross-state pool-ing to reduce health care costs and increase acces-sibility for small business owners, unions, associa-tions, and their workers, members, and families• Blends the individual and group market to extend im-portant HIPAA portability protections to the individual market so that insurance se-curity can better move with you from job to job• Emphasizes preventive benefits and helps individu-als with chronic diseases so America will finally have health care and not sick care• Gives you the choice to convert the value of your Medicaid and SCHIP pro-gram benefits into private health insurance, putting you in control of your health care, not the Federal government• Saves lives and money by better coordinating health information technology to improve health care deliv-ery

• Increases ac-cess to primary care in rural and frontier areas by helping fu-ture providers and nurses pay for their educa-tion, and gives seniors more options to re-ceive care in their homes and communities• Decreases the sky-rocketing cost of health care by restor-ing reliability in our medical justice system through State-based solutions

"We do need to have health care reform," Enzi said. "And by doing it in 10 steps, you can bite off one step at a time or even three or four."

If done in one comprehen-sive package, Enzi insisted it gives lawmakers ample opportunity to perceive problems with the bill.

"We do need to get it right," Enzi said. "We need take the time to do it. I think the only way it will happen is we need to break it down into smaller parts than we have now and put it through one at a time."

Enzi supports health insur-ance cooperatives, an idea proposed by Ken Conrad of North Dakota, which are very similar to the small business health plans pro-posed several years ago, and in turn would essential-

ly allow small businesses to pool together across state lines and even nationwide to effectively negotiate for lower insurance costs.

"That is something I am still pushing for," Enzi said. "Small business health plans are one way of in-creasing choices. Co-ops will increase choice. If we have more people getting insurance, if we are cov-ering more of them, more companies will be coming into it."

The Senator has never been an advocate of a public, government-run health in-surance program, and said he wants to continue work on health care until the cur-rent situation is remedied.
