Skip to comments.LA Times: Women in Washington, your seats are at risk
Posted on 08/29/2010 6:01:41 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer
Washington With this fall's midterm elections, the number of women serving in Congress could drop for the first time in a generation. If large numbers of Democratic incumbents lose in November, as expected, many women could be replaced by men.
The prospect of a setback has advocates of women's rights in disbelief, but determined to try to prevent it. "That is not going to happen," said Terry O'Neill, president of the National Organization for Women.
Many of the vulnerable Democratic women this fall first arrived on the waves of the 2006 and 2008 elections, but now face tough odds in districts that have since soured on the party in power and on President Obama's agenda.
(Excerpt) Read more at latimes.com ...
I have never *gotten* the idea that women should be elected because they are women. A woman can not represent you better because of her sex. To say so is the put the lie to the entire women's movement. Of course, the truth is the whole women's rights movement was hijacked in favor of abortion on demand years ago. That seems to be the sum total of their agenda.
This is an ancient tradition, and to see it happen first in Congress is encouraging ~ that mean's the Leftwingtards didn't totally corrupt the human spirit.
Oh, good grief, it's not about gender; it's about the ECONOMY, et al.
Left wing women have come across as particularly repulsive: Pelosi, Boxer, McCaskill, Murray. et. al. Really bad personalities and politics.
However, according to the feminists (and the LA Times), conservative women aren't...women. Just like conservative blacks aren't...black.
Oh, the horror.
Mass mahem.
Dogs and cats living together.....
There, I fixed it.
And note to Ms. Mascaro: Speak for yourself, not for me.
A woman can not represent you better because of her sex.
Ahh, yes, but if she offers the wisdom of a wise latina, then by all means put her on the Surpreme Court....
Exactly. Plenty of conservative women are elbowing their way in. They don't qualify as women i guess under NOW's definition.
The LA Times doesn't need to worry their pretty little empty heads... lots of Republican women will be elected...
Of course they aren't flaming liberal idiots so maybe they aren't really women to the leftists, just like so many blacks aren't really black unless they tow the inner city, race baiting line
It's funny, when I was growing up we were not supposed to judge a person based on their race or sex. Now, we are to assume that some people are more worthy because of those things. Bizarro World.
The women's movement has never been about abortion or even women.It is about socialism and abortion, etc is the tools that particular socialist organization has chosen to use. Family destruction is a prime tool for the breakdown of society and that is the chosen NOW path to socialism.Socialists have different groups that specialize in different perceived or invented grievances butsocialism is the only goal., else the Womyn would be fighting Islam righteously.
***However, according to the feminists (and the LA Times), conservative women aren't...women. Just like conservative blacks aren't...black.***
You are absolutely right.
"... oh, and by the way, I almost forgot: @#$% SARAH PALIN!!!"
Un. Be. LIEV. Able. ;)
That's funny, Sarah Palin (a woman, and obviously one who takes pride in it) endorsed a whole group of "Mama Grizzlies", did she not?
I guess if you don't look like a lesbian, you are not a woman to the left. There is something quite twisted about that.
"Vulnerable" like female snakes.
In my book the 'women's movement' is more responsible for the breakdown in our cultural and moral values than any other 'social' trend.
Women were 'admonished' to look with disdain and anger on the role of mother and wife and to consider only those factors which fulfill her wishes and desires. There was an overt movement to 'diminish' the male and his role in society. The natural result was to vie for dominance in traditional male roles including supposed 'sexual' permissiveness.
The men were blindsided...and society lost the most important base as the purveyor of values, morality and responsibility: the intact family unit.
I would never vote for a woman because she is a woman...but I guess there are fools who do.
Your seats are at risk because we are going to kick your A$$es out and replace them with conservative GOOD LOOKING women. OH and all bright too.
... or if she is a Libtard who can see nothing ... nothing ... with respect to judicial restraint ...
The NAG gang??? They lost every bit of credibility they thought they had with ignoring Clinton's bimbo fiascoes. I'm surprised they even exist anymore as an organization.
Shopuld read..."Ultraliberal women in Washington, your seats are at risk".
Excuse me "Ms" O'Neill, but that's not for you to say. It can and will happen if the voters (remember them - they are the folk who are supposed to be in charge) decide not to vote for people who happen to be women.
Demonstration of media bias. For women'e 'issues' they have N.O.W. dialed in, but unless directly concerned never even look at C.W.A. or Phyllis Schlafly's Eagle Forum, they just don't exist to them. NOW is liberal first, women second and for the MSM that is the correct attitude!
Let's work to make the number of Dims in Washington drop, regardless of race, color, creed, gender or national origin (or any other category I might have left out).
Interesting that this article from the Los Angeles Times makes NO MENTION of the GOP women challenging in CALIFORNIA!?!? Is this a bit of tipping past the graveyard?
Good post. You clearly have identified central issue.
Oops. Put a "the" between "identified" and "central."
The majority of the membership of NOW are lesbians. They don't even begin to speak for what normal women want.
A vagina is no right to rule.
Seeing as how most of the women in Congress are stupid lefties, I have no problem with this.
I think lots of women feel the same way.
I love a woman with a good, strong seat.
Good riddance. Female leadership is too often like government efficiency, military intelligence, or moderate Muslims, ain't it, Sarah?
When the going gets tough, the tough get things going. Or else they resign from the Alaska State House because of family finances and vague feelings of discomfort and dismay.

Not a fan
"I love Minnetonka shoes/slippers, but these were very narrow and short. I won't be trying another size either because I wasn't a fan of the look."

Sharp looking
"I love the way these moccasins look with the studs on the back. I bought a 9 and they are slightly big. If they were shoes that you wear socks with they would be fine. If they carried these in the stores, I would probably go try on a half size size down but I don't think it makes enough of a difference to ship them back, so I will probably just put a gel insert in them to tighten them up a little, which is kind of a shame because the leather instep in these shoes is actually very soft and comfy. I personally can't be bothered to go down a size though because of a bunion on my right foot which makes it almost impossible to buy shoes without trying them on, but if you have normal feet, I would suggest going down at least half a size. Also, the color of these is more rust than brown, so the picture is slightly misleading. Again, I am ok with it but just don't be surprised that they're not more of a bomber brown. All in all, I am very satisfied with this purchase, appreciate the fast shipping, and can't wait for warmer weather to wear these."

Color is off
"The color I ordered was brown but when I opened the box the shoes were more of an rusty ugly orange color. Other than the color the shoes are nice and comfortable, but I will definitely be sending these back."

On behalf of Ohio voter Jeanne White, EFF intervened in a comprehensive election reform lawsuit brought in 2005 by the League of Women Voters of Ohio. Building upon the issues raised by the League, White's sweeping claims would force the state to rewrite its election procedures and dramatically increase the security of its voting technology. EFF and its litigation partners (law firms Kerger & Associates, Zuckerman, Spaeder, Goldstein, Taylor & Kolker, LLP, and Heller, Ehrman, White and McAuliffe, LLP) are engaged in detailed discovery discussions with the state of Ohio, individual Boards of Election, and voting equipment vendors in an effort to construct a detailed picture of the 2004 election and its aftermath.
Some of the relief sought by the lawsuit includes uniform standards and processes to ensure: The transparency of pre- and post-election procedures, including public audits of ballots and equipment logs, An adequate number of accurately calibrated and functioning voting machines on election day (including pre-election and election day testing), Backup technology plans in the event of equipment or software failure, Robust pollworker and election official training regarding potential technology issues, Sufficient disability access at every polling place, and Proper and prompt addressing of election technology-related complaints.
In short, EFF is fighting for processes and procedures to improve transparency, security and auditability of digital voting technologies in the state. EFF hopes to use this case to set model standards that can be used in other states and local jurisdictions throughout the country.
This is the court order denying Defendants' motion to dismiss Jeanne White's Complaint.

In 1851, William Lindsey, Gen. Edward Burleson and Eli T. Merriman bought land along the river and laid out the town site. Legend says Franciscan monks paddling up the Guadalupe River discovered the San Marcos River and chose the name because the discovery was made on St. Mark's day. Hays County was established in 1848, and San Marcos became the county seat. The town also was a resting point on a three-day stagecoach trip from Austin to San Antonio.
The San Marcos River rises from mammoth springs in the town. Scuba, snorkel, fish, kayak or tube the crystal clear San Marcos River. On the river, Rio Vista Falls, a transformed dam, offers white water.

Rick Santorums views on the Middle East
Rick Santorum's take on the Middle East crisis
Anti Palestine talk and military attack on Iran is the general consensus of Republicans as has been evidenced by their open views on the matter. The Middle East issue sometimes even overshadows the fearce debate over Obama's disputed health care initiative, aka the Obamacare.
According to Ali Younes, Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum has advocated use of military force against Iran to stop its nuclear program whereas he prefers that US remains neutral in the Palestinian struggle for an independent state in Israel, as the issue is an "internal matter".
In fact except for Ron Paul, these views have been expressed by other members of the Republican Party as well. Newt Gingrich, another Republican Presidential hopeful went so far as to say "the Palestinians are an invented people".
Despite a history where Americans fought a war with British for Independence, Santorum's stand on the issue is quote "These people are there in the state of Israel and it's up to Israel to decide" unquote. Interestingly, Santorum had difficulty calling the people Palestinians and kept referring to them as "these people", stressing again that "these people are in Israel" when countered with the logic of America's war of Independence that gave rise to the United States of America.
Santorum's views seem to mirror the Republican and Conservative thinking that Iran's nuclear program is a threat to United States as well as Israel. While editorials advise against a military strike on Iran, Republicans including Santorum have expressed their concern for Iran's Arab neighbors in the wake of nuclear empowerment of the nation. According to Santorum, nuclear arms in Iran are likely to prove more dangerous to the neighboring Sunni Muslim population than to United States.
To press home its demand, a Republican congressional delegation held a meeting with France and the Arab nations to increase pressure on Iran to abort its nuclear mission. Ileana Ross-Lehtinen, the Republican chairman of the House foreign affairs committee stated that purpose of the meeting was to garner support from US allies against the threat that Iran posed for US and Israel.
In their official statement regarding the trip, Ross-Lehtinen and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor stressed on the Arab nations to "stand by Israel, support its right to defend itself and press the Palestinian leadership so that a true lasting peace may be achieved" – a move that did not go down well with radio talk show host Ray Hanania who condemned the Congress visit to the Arab states that sought to seek support for Israel by exploiting the situation in Iran. Hanania likened their actions to that of a thief. Santorum's narrow minded views were also attached by the talk show host.
Cheeky Bingo eyeing US gaming zones
Cheeky Bingo is one of the top bingo sites in the UK but it plans on making it presence known in the US market also pretty soon. Online bingo gamers are well aware that bingo is one of the most popular online gaming activity in the UK but in US, strict laws forbid online bingo games and yet Cheeky Bingo is cheeky enough to plan a US invasion in the near future.
With United States of America beginning to relax its stringent laws as far as online gambling is concerned, the cheeky bingo site has already set in place a strategy to make sure it is already a known name in US gaming circles, once the walls come tumbling down.
To begin with, the site is getting itself recognized in US by introducing the 'cheeky' app in Facebook. This is a logical and a well thought out strategic move since social gaming in social networking sites is getting more and more popular these days.
Next step is making sure players in many public places such as in parks and restaurants are playing this app wherein the Cheeky mascot will also make an appearance and interact with the players. Of course, the mascot is not going to be empty handed. Expect some gifts and freebie giveaways as well.
The facebook page of Cheeky Bingo is also well designed. It is aesthetic enough to attract and hold the interest of even the passing visitor. If you are interested in checking out Bingo Cheeky's new Facebook page and bingo apps, visit https://apps.facebook.com/cheekybingo.
Facebook branding is definitely one of the best ways to enter a new market and Cheeky has got it right from the start. It will not be long before other top UK bingo sites online, also make a beeline to the US market with a similar strategy.
For avid bingo fans, whether you are in the UK or in the US, there will be still many more bingo apps coming out in the market as more and more sites begin a US market strategy much like Cheeky.

Beginner's Guide To The World Of Online Casinos
If you're just beginning your foray into the world of casinos, it is best that you start out online. There is no dearth of sites where you can play online casino games that include free casino games as well as high roller games with huge casino jackpot. If you are new to this world, then here is a list of do's and don'ts for you that should help you considerably.
1. Take advantage of the no deposit bonus: That's right. Almost all casinos online offer no deposit bonuses to the new members. This means, all you have got to do is sign up with the site without making a deposit. The minute you create your account, the online casino will give you a welcome bonus which can help you get started with the games.
The catch: It is probable that you may not be able to encash any of your winnings until you make an appropriate deposit. But hey, if you are on a winning streak, you will definitely want to make a deposit in order to continue to play casino online as well as withdraw your free casino winnings.
2. Be smart about deposit bonuses: This is another amazing offer from virtual casinos. When you make a deposit, you will get additional bonuses which can double, triple or even quadruple your account balances. This means you get even more free casino games than you hoped for.
The catch: Look out for any fine print. There could be conditions attached which may again be related to withdrawal of your winnings. But the good news is; these deposit bonuses are not mandatory. Some mobile phone casinos do offer you a choice of whether you want the deposit bonus or not. So make sure you read the conditions and decide for yourself if you wish to go ahead with the deposit bonus. Grab your mobile casino bonuses by visiting this website!
3. Exercise proper caution: There are too many online casino sites out there and new ones spring up every day. Make sure you sign up with legitimate sites in order to safeguard your finances. Some of the top online casino sites that have stood the test of time include All Slots Casino, Casino Win Palace, 888 Casino, LadyLuck's Casino, etc.
1. Go Overboard: If you are a novice, do not sign up with too many online casino sites all at once. While it may be tempting to grab all those free bonuses and play online casino games for free, it will be sure to overwhelm you. Pace yourself with just two or three sites and maintain a balance in your gaming activities, lest you become an addict.
2. Be afraid to ask for help: Almost all novice players may be confused a little with the terms and conditions or may have queries on how to play online casino games. Do not be shy to seek help. The customer desk of all legitimate casino sites would only be delighted to help you. Get all doubts cleared whenever they arise and raise your awareness about the games and in no time you will be playing like a professional.

For the love of online Casinos
We all love to gamble, not just in casinos but also in real life. Whether it's quitting your job to establish your own business or just trying your luck on love, gambling, in various forms has always been a part of our daily existence. Hence, we do not only gamble for the cash. We gamble just for the heck of it. Our tendency to gamble stems from our curiosity and our thirst for unimaginable and the unthinkable, our passion for taking chances and the thrill of winning.
In fact, in the olden times, much of our ancient ancestors have always been involved in gambling in one form or another. The Romans are known for their fascination in gambling in gladiatorial sports. And there are indications that even our prehistoric ancestors gamble using bones and stones. From the traditional casinos that we loved to the online casinos, we look for ways to satisfy our hunger to gamble.
Due to our tendency to gamble, companies like online casino developers take advantage of that weakness. They developed online casino games every day to further satisfy our human nature to just roll the dice. With the multitudes of online casinos in the web, a lot of online casino programs are being offered that will allow you to enjoy your favorite casino games at the comforts of your own home.
New online casinos like Raja Casinos, Bovada Online and Rushmore Online are giving the online casino business a stiff fight. Both online casinos are providing good services for newbie and expert casino aficionados. Bovada Online, as according to their website, is providing a $500 signup bonus with most US players are accepted at their site. While it may use proprietary online gaming software, Bovada is based on real-time gaming (RTG) platform which most online casino gamers are very familiar of.
Meanwhile, Rushmore Online has been known as a pioneer in the online casino industry and is offering unique bonuses to their player such as its $888 signup bonus. It also offers exceptional customer service.
But before entering into these sites, it is best if you first find advice on where, how, and how much to gamble. Whether the format has changed, it's still a game of luck and skills. You lose in a real casino game, much more in an online version, if you don't know how to handle yourself.
Before taking a step further in enjoying your games, always read carefully the online casino's policies, and how it conducts its payouts and betting. And remember, gamble prudently. While it is human nature to play the stakes, it's always good to control one's self. Here is a list of do's and don'ts for online casino players.
Mitt Romney
'I'm Not Concerned About The Very Poor' says Mitt Romney
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is once again in the news, this time for saying that he is not concerned about the poor.
"I'm in this race because I care about Americans. I'm not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there. If it needs repair, I'll fix it," Romney said further adding "I'm not concerned about the very rich, they're doing just fine. I'm concerned about the very heart of the America, the 90 percent, 95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling."
Since then, Romney has been busy replying to questions on his apparent lack of concern for the poor. However Romney clarified that while the rich do not need concern and the poor are taken care of by the state's safety net, it is the middle class Americans that he is focusing on, contrary to the Democrats focus on the poor. This corresponds with his consistent views on the Obamacare health care law.
Citing food stamps, housing vouchers and Medicaid as examples of the safety net for the poor, Romney admitted that there were holes in these safety measures which needed to be plugged.
However Romney's assurance of the safety net may be premature as the Medicaid budget is likely to face some cuts as states try to balance their budgets. Food stamps may also come under the hammer despite rising food prices. To make matters worse, while Medicaid and food stamps may have to do with a lower budget, more and more people are currently in need of this program in the face of increasing recession.
Romney's own policies are looking to restructure the social safety net with a five percent cut. He is also advocating a block grant program for Medicaid while also talking of curtailing spends at 20% of GDP. But this is not all. There is also talk of additional cuts to reign in government spending.
Mitt Romney who is also the former founder of Bain Capital with assets over $200 million has come under attack by his competitors for being disconnected with the economic reality and for his infamous comments. For instance in October, Romney supported foreclosures in Las Vegas with a hard hitting statement "Don't try and stop the foreclosure process. Let it run its course and hit the bottom," In yet another unpopular comment in January Romney said "I like being able to fire people who provide services to me".
In turn, Andrea Saul, Romney's spokeperson spoke against President Obama's policies that have led to a slow economy, rising unemployment and increasing poverty and has expressed eagerness to debate on the issue with the President.

Now that the dust has settled in the south, Planet Rugby hands out praise to the stars of the Rugby Championship's second round.
Now that the dust has settled in the southern hemisphere, Planet Rugby hands out praise to the stars of the Rugby Championship's second round.
15 Israel Dagg (New Zealand): Was back to his best on attack and constantly gained ground when he joined the All Blacks line. Dagg also proved a nightmare to the Wallabies when counter-attacking and made 77 metres with ball in hand.
14 Ben Smith (New Zealand): Showed once again why he is so highly rated by Steve Hansen and apart from two superb finishes also impressed with his positional play and defence. Is also the tournament's top try-scorer with five tries.
13 Marcelo Bosch (Argentina): Capped a fine allround performance with a well-taken try and was at the forefront of los Pumas' much improved showing against the Springboks in Mendoza. Bosch was arguably Argentina's best player and his powerful surges kept the visitors' defence on their toes throughout.
12 Jean de Villiers (South Africa): Another polished display from the Springbok captain, who makes our team for the second week in a row. De Villiers got over the advantage line on a couple of occasions and he also did his bit on defence with seven tackles made. Comes in ahead of Christian Lealiifano who was one of the Wallbies' best players in Wellington.
11 Israel Folau (Australia): Played on the rightwing but wears the number 11 jersey in our side after another impressive display with ball in hand. Had few opportunities on attack but when he managed to get his hands on the ball, he made the All Blacks pay by scoring a fine try.
10 Tom Taylor (New Zealand): Came into the All Blacks side under huge pressure, as their fourth-choice pivot, and on debut put in a solid display. Scored 14 points and did well in unleashing his dangerous outside backs. Also shone on defence with 10 hits. Beats out Morne Steyn of South Africa.
9 Aaron Smith (New Zealand): Was unlucky not to make our team last week but gets in this week after overshadowing Will Genia in Wellington. Smith played well with his pack and his fine service – especially early on – played a huge part in helping Taylor to settle in his first Test.
8 Kieran Read (New Zealand): This guy seldom plays a bad Test and this past weekend he was the best back-rower on display in the tournament. Was New Zealand's main ball-carrier winning 106 metres on attack but also impressed in other areas, making 13 tackles.
7 Richie McCaw (New Zealand): Had another epic battle with Michael Hooper but once again the All Blacks skipper just beats out the Wallabies tearaway. McCaw was a menace at the breakdowns but complimented that effort with a fine defensive display, making 14 tackles – the most by any player in Wellington
6 Steven Luatua (New Zealand): Another top class performance from the All Blacks rookie whose game is thriving alongside more experienced campaigners like Read and McCaw. The Aucklander made a massive impact in Wellington, being prominent in Ben Smith's tries and his two recent performances seems to have cemented his place in the All Blacks' starting XV.
5 Sam Whitelock (New Zealand): Is growing into his role as the All Blacks' senior lock and made his presence felt against the Wallabies for the second successive week. Whitelock enjoys doing the dirt work for the world champions and impressed on defence with 11 hits and in the line-outs where he won a handful of balls.
4 Julio FarÃas Cabello (Argentina): Was los Pumas' go-to-man in the line-outs in Mendoza, with six clean takes. Also carried forcefully and did well on defence with five tackles made.
3 Owen Franks (New Zealand): Was part of the All Blacks front row who delivered a strong scrummaging performance but also impressed on defence, making nine tackles.
2 Adriaan Strauss (South Africa): Was on the field for just over 50 minutes but did his primary duties well and it will take a special effort from Bismarck du Plessis to displace him in South Africa's run-on side.
1 Tony Woodcock (New Zealand): Another solid display from the veteran in his 100th Test. Was the destroyer-in-chief at the scrums, pushing his direct opponent, Ben Alexander, back several metres, on a couple of occasions. Like Franks, he also caught the eye on defence making seven tackles.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
It was with surprise that Emery County residents learned that Millsite State Park was on the closure list for cutbacks in state parks. Huntington, Millsite and Scofield Park Manager Ron Taylor said, "There is a story behind the whole deal. Since the beginning of the last fiscal year in July 2001 early predictions were that the financial status of the state would be bad. At the request of the agency several budget reductions were taking place on-going throughout the year.
"The state parks met multiple times to meet the governor's budget requirements. We were asked statewide to come up with $400,000 in reductions. We were hit with another $1 million which was internally adjusted. These reductions had been requested and met before the legislature came into session. We had gone along with the need to tighten our belts and had done those things.
"We consolidated Scofield with Huntington and Millsite State Park. When the boating ranger at Scofield retired he was not replaced. This was a savings of $40,000 per year. Other parks such as Flaming Gorge did the same thing; employees were not replaced to meet the governor's request.
"The legislature said that state parks will reduce their ongoing budget by $500,000 by closing parks. This didn't give state parks an option. So they are following that mandate by closing parks. I don't know what the legislature was thinking. It's a hard thing to close parks. The region managers and the State Park Board all got together to decide which parks to close to save $500,000.
"Two years ago state parks asked the governor and the legislature for $10 million to bring parks up to code. We were given half of that $5 million to do that. And now they want us to close parks. After much discussion they chose six parks to be eliminated. Otter Creek-Piute, Minersville, Fort Buenaventura in Ogden, Pineview-elimination of the boating ranger, Millsite and Jordan River are on the hit list.
"It took $30,000 to run Millsite in the year 2001. Revenues from park camping fees raised $13,000 in funding. This means a saving to the state parks of between $17,000 to $20,000 per year if Millsite is closed," said Taylor.
Millsite State Park has operated with a manager who visited the park on a daily basis. They have one seasonal employee and a green thumb volunteer who is paid by the federal government and two-four camphosts each season. The only savings to the state parks will be in the elimination of the seasonal worker position. The other positions were volunteer. The park manager will remain with his duties including Huntington and Scofield. The city would not be able to operate the park as cheaply as the state parks has done. If the city cannot take over the park then it will revert back to Bureau of Land Management because it is on BLM land.
Millsite State Park will need the support of the people in the area to be saved. Creative financing will need to be addressed to show the state parks that Millsite can be operated with minimal expense from them. It's not worth closing for a savings of $20,000 per year. The citizens of the county are needed to show up and support the park. They need to let the state parks know that they are willing to pay fees. Improvements have been seen at Millsite and the people can see they are getting something for their investment in the park. The beauty of a state park is that the money stays at that park to make it better.
The people of Emery County will lose a great place to play if state parks pulls out of Millsite. Emery County does not have a lot of developed, protected, maintained play areas. If they lose this one it will be tragic for everyone. The worry is if people do not have areas to recreate in they will find them, this type of recreation sometimes causes trouble and closes recreational opportunities for everyone. New developments should be planned and closing Millsite should not be an option.
A public hearing will be held on April 3 at 6 p.m. at the Ferron City Hall. State Park Board members will be in attendance as well as other decision makers. Let your voice be heard by attending this public hearing.
Concerns and questions over the proposed San Rafael Swell National Monument took center stage in a series of meetings held over the weekend.
The Emery County Public Lands Council sponsored two town meetings, one in Green River on Friday night and the other on Saturday morning at Emery High School. The recently established Castle Country Rural Alliance sponsored its own town meeting on Saturday night at Canyon View Junior High in Huntington.
The proposal to have the president declare the San Rafael Swell a national monument was first suggested during a public meeting held by the public lands council in January. During the meeting members of the public lands council and Emery County commission suggested the monument proposal as an alternative to years of failed efforts to pass legislation to protect local interests in the San Rafael.
Twice before Emery County has tried unsuccessfully to pass legislation concerning the San Rafael only to have it fail due to heavy opposition by environmental groups. The first attempt was in 1998 and the second in 2000. After the last failure the lands council and county leadership stepped back and tried to regroup. During the January meeting it was suggested that with a new administration in the White House which expressed interest in local initiatives, that a monument declaration might be Emery County's last, best chance to do something to protect local interests in the San Rafael Swell.
During Governor Mike Leavitt's state of the state address he mentioned the monument proposal. Following the governor's announcement concerning the Swell a storm of questions, accusations and confusion erupted over the proposal, with a large number of people fearing that the monument was a "done deal" and there was no going back.
During the meetings on Friday and Saturday county leadership and the lands council did their best to dispel those beliefs, emphasizing that the two meetings were the beginning of the process to solicit public input on how a monument proposal should be worded, or if a monument proposal should be drafted at all.
During the meetings Dennis Worwood, chairman of the public lands council, detailed to the audience previous county initiatives to address the San Rafael Swell and what had finally led the council and commissioners to propose a national monument.
Approximately 50 people attended the meeting in Green River and another 60 attended the meeting in Castle Dale.
Guest speakers for the council sponsored meeting were Dick Manus, retired BLM area manager, who explained the recently published BLM Travel Plan for the San Rafael. Access to the San Rafael Swell is a subject of strong emotion on all sides and during the meeting Randy Johnson, county commissioner, explained that the county had asked for and been granted an extension of the public comment period for the BLM Travel Plan (see related story on Page 1A). Kathleen Truman, of the Utah Travel Council also spoke to the audience about the planning process for the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. Truman served as one of the Utah members in the planning process for that monument.
After hearing from guest speakers the audience was broken into groups so that public comments could be heard. Public comments ranged from support, to caution to outrage over the proposal, but the most common theme seemed to be that more information was needed before a decision was made. Others spoke of their fear that a monument designation was the last step down a slippery slope to a national park designation and that no matter what the county people proposed it would be warped into unrecognizable form by the time the national process was complete.
"When you try something new be prepared for it to blow up in your face and come back and eat you alive," said Wade Jensen, who said he was the last sheepherder on the Swell and after trying to work in good faith with government agencies he was faced with having to move his herds off the desert.
While some spoke of their support of the proposal, others feared that the proposal would end up hurting the county in the long run and lead to even more restrictions.
"If you designate it they will come. If they come you will have impact. If you have impact you will have restrictions," said Kelly Austin of Ferron.
After the breakout sessions those who attended the meeting met back in the auditorium where all of the solicited comments were shared. Further meetings on the monument proposal will be held in the near future with dates and times to be announced.
The featured speakers for the newly formed Castle Country Rural Alliance were Jim Parker who worked for the BLM on and off for 30 years as Utah State Director and National Associate and National Assistant Director for the BLM. Rick Crawford from Garfield County who spoke of the struggles his county has gone through and Dave Skinner who works for Montanans for Multiple Use and specialized in helping grass roots groups work with federal land managers.
The meeting was well attended with more than 150 people. Paul Conover began the meeting with a brief overview of what the organization hopes to accomplish. He described it as a 'work in progress.' Each speaker took some time and expressed their thoughts and ideas on the proposed monument as well as other issues. Each speaker was followed by a comment period from the audience where a number of questions were brought up and addressed.
The general message the speakers presented was for the public to get involved in the process and let their voices be heard.
Ramal and Carole Jones love to hunt for dinosaurs. They moved to Castle Dale from Sandy in 2001 when Ramal retired from the University of Utah and Carole retired from American Express.
They have two children and five grandchildren who all live in the area. Ramal said, "I grew up in Castle Dale. I met Carole in New York while I was in the Navy we were married in Hawaii in 1961. We lived in the California Bay Area for 24 years where I worked for General Electric. I was in the nuclear energy division working in research and development. Carole worked as a nurse and mother. We moved to Sandy in 1987. Our dinosaur career started in 1988.
"I went on a dig to the Long Walk Quarry below Castle Dale with the University of Utah. While there I got the idea that Carole and I should search for a dinosaur. We started searching in the Cedar Mountain Formation east of Castle Dale. After three years of off and on searching Carole found some small bone fragments. She called me back and she had spotted a small vertebra partially eroded out of the soil. We got really excited not realizing at the time how this would change our lives.
"We first offered to show the site to the University of Utah, but their excavation program was on hold at that time. So therefore they weren't interested at that time. I called Don Burge of the College of Eastern Utah Prehistoric Museum and showed him the site in 1993. I took a radiation survey meter to the site out of curiosity to check the bones for radioactivity. I found the bones to be radioactive. We mapped the site using radiation survey instruments. I told Don about it and went back to the U of U where I worked and modified the instrument to overcome background radiation.
"Carole and I returned to the site in August of 1993 and surveyed the site with the instrument. We took 850 readings in a two day period. I took the readings back to my computer and put them on a computer spread sheet. When I removed the background reading, the location of the bones stood out as shown by the higher radiological readings. This site has been named the Carole/RJ dinosaur quarry.
"In September of 1993, Don Burge came over with an excavation crew from CEU. Using the radiological survey instrument. We located major bones from the dinosaur skull. Carole's dinosaur was a Hadrosaur commonly called the duckbill. We have been called Mr. and Mrs. Dinosaur. In 1995 with the use of the instrument we found another dinosaur not far from where Carole had made her find. This dinosaur was a small armored dinosaur known as a Nodosaur. These two dinosaurs were named in honor of each of their finders. Carole's dinosaur is known as Eolambia Caroljonesa, pronounced ee-yo-Lamb-ee-uh kare-ul-Jones-uh. My dinosaur is known as Animantarx Ramaljonesi, pronounced an-ee-Man-tarx ram-al-Jones-eye.
"This was the first dinosaur found using a radiation survey instrument. My dinosaur was covered with two-three feet of soil. This was a crude instrument, but I developed a more advanced instrument that was used on future sites. We helped with the discovery of an allosaurus skull near Jensen at the Dinosaur National Monument. They had located a skeleton there that was remarkably complete. This indicated that the skull must be somewhere near but they could never find its location. We took a radiological measurement of the bones from the skeleton back at the lab. They indicated a measurement of 6.5 uR/hr, 4.5 uR/hr higher than the background radiation of 1 to 2 uR/hr at the theropod quarry. The above background reading indicated that uranium had been present during the fossilization process of the skeleton and that the bone had concentrated enough uranium to make a radiological survey feasible.
"We took a reading of the area and established the site background readings. When these readings were deleted it indicated elevated readings which indicated the possibility of buried bone at that location. This area was excavated the following year. Excavations were started and quickly exposed bone. As the bone was uncovered, it became evident that the crew was looking at the back surface of the missing theropod skull. The skull was miraculously well preserved.
"We were also asked to go to Hagerman Horse Quarry in Hagerman, Idaho to do surveys at their site. I do the survey and Carole records the data. We found many horse fossils in the area.
"I have a patent on the instrument through the U of U. I have published papers in the New Mexico Natural History and Science journal. In order for a dinosaur to be given a name something has to be published in a scientific journal. One time I spoke to 40 scientists at the Fossil Resource Conference in Rapid City, S.D. I have people with PhDs as coauthors on my papers. This is very unusual for a lay person and a unique situation. My instrument has been met with skepticism to start with. There were people who thought it wouldn't work. But, when we found the allosaurus skull the find was published nationally and internationally. This was a rare find. Carole and I have found three skulls.
"I have always had a scientific interest in all sciences. Growing up in Castle Dale I was interested in geology. I love discovery but I never thought this would happen. That I would be able to be on the same level as scientists. I went back to school and took palenetology classes for six years. I have a thirst for knowledge and think the earth has a huge story to tell and rocks reveal that story.
"There was a 60-70 million year gap in the history of the dinosaur. We knew about the Cleveland-Lloyd dinosaurs from the late Jurassic Period and we knew the history of the dinosaurs found in coal mines, but we didn't know much about the dinosaurs who walked the earth during the Cedar Mountain Formation. The last 15 years there have been a lot of discoveries that help tell the story of this gap.
"We love it here in Castle Dale. It has everything we enjoy doing. The desert, mountains, hunting, fishing and the geology of the area. We enjoy the solitude of the desert. We have loved it and the opportunities we've been given," said Ramal.
Carole said, "We were always rock hounds for many years while the kids were little. I would show Ramal the pretty rocks I would find and he would just throw them away. I told him one day I would find something that he wouldn't throw away and I did. It's been really fun and we have met a lot of people. I used to tell the people at my work that I was finding bones older than I was because I was the oldest one at my job. I listen to everything that goes on but I don't understand half of it. I enjoy supporting Ramal and we've done a lot of traveling with this."
Mr. and Mrs. Dinosaur have had a lot of publicity over the years. From CNN, Parade magazine, numerous interviews with Ed Yates from KSL Television, Paleoworld and the BBC dino detectives. Ramal said, "The dinosaurs are interesting to a large segment of society. We also developed a website for a research tool for school kids on the dinosaur quarry. We've been involved in the whole phase, the find, excavation, preparation and writing the stories. It's been a lot of work but we've enjoyed it. It's been a good thing to do together. We've shared the excitement and adventure together. Having dinosaurs named in our honor is very unique for a married couple. We plan on working on more dinosaur sites and do consulting work for the Bureau of Land Management and the forest service. We will also work with CEU and the San Rafael Museums.
"We have an exhibit at the U of U museum, they have my original machine in the exhibit. I hope someday to have that exhibit in our museum here in Castle Dale," said Ramal.
The Jones' will speak about their dinosaur adventures in a program sponsored by the Emery County Historical Society called "Dinosaur Odyssey" on March 28 at 6:30 p.m. at the Museum of the San Rafael.
The Emery County Commissioners met in their regularly scheduled meeting on March 19 at 9 a.m. Those present were Commissioners Randy Johnson, Ira Hatch and Drew Sitterud. Also present was Dave Blackwell, county attorney.
Maughn Guymon said a word of prayer at the beginning of the meeting and Carol Cox led those present in the pledge of allegiance. The first item of business was to add an executive session to discuss personnel matters as the last item on the agenda. Darrel Leamaster from the Castle Valley Special Service District was first on the agenda. He was representing the Emery County project review committee. He presented the project list which has been prepared to submit to the Community Impact Board. The local communities all submit a wish list for projects. Short term projects number 19 at a cost of 17 million. These projects are assigned a priority with an A, B, or C.
"This is the way the CIB has asked for these lists to be submitted to them. Emery Town has requested 11.5 million to install a pipeline, but most of the requests are substantially less than that. The medium term list is not prioritized and the entities are looking for funding in the next six years for those. There are $27.6 million worth of projects on the medium term list. I need the commission to look at and approve the list so it can be submitted to the CIB before the first of April," said Leamaster.
Commissioner Johnson commented that in the submissions the communities were relying heavily on grants and he hoped they had other alternate plans for funding and would be prepared if low or no interest loans were offered. The grant money from the CIB has decreased over recent years.
Commissioner Hatch wondered how close the total figure costs for the projects might be. Leamaster said there might be some difference but the figures were pretty close. A motion was made to approve the list for short and medium term capital improvements to be submitted to the CIB. Leamaster said he would take care of submitting the list.
The check edit, requisitions and dispositions were next on the agenda. Clerk Bruce Funk presented the list to the commissioners. A question on the cost of the gas bills at the Ferron Library was discussed. Commissioner Sitterud pointed out it was twice as much as the other libraries. The librarian present from Ferron said they would have the gas company come and check out the facility. Other questions in costs raised were the $900 gas bill at the museum and the $200 phone bill. Rex Funk from the road department explained the cost of $1,150 for the rebuilding of pumps and also the need for two windows in the office area where there is dead air space and no circulation or ventilation for the employee involved. The lists were approved.
The next item on the agenda was Pat Snowball with a request for a time and wage increase for an employee at the Ferron Library. After discussion the increase was approved. It was pointed out that personnel is the biggest expense for the libraries. Snowball's next request was for family leave time for an employee of the road department. The practice of employees donating time to an employee who doesn't have the time banked was discussed. This is done on a totally voluntary basis and the employee in need remains anonymous. The request was approved.
The next item on the agenda was a presentation by representatives from Consol. Bart Hyita presented an update. He said, "Consol operated until 1990 and the technology used was a continuous miner. We supplied coal to IPP in Delta and operated in two miner sections. We sold a blend product and the market for the product dryed up. The mine is now in poorer condition than we anticipated. We have contacted big customers in the east and midwest but we haven't had success. With the mild winter the demand has dropped off. We have contacted PacifiCorp and Los Angeles water and power for some test burns. We will look at selling smaller quantities in larger lot sizes.
"The coal is good quality and we will look to selling smaller volumes. We are a small player in the coal scene in Emery County. We are the little guy. We are a large coal company but just have a small operation in this area. This will be a disadvantage starting out but we hope to get bigger and be a long term player in Emery County and provide tax revenue for the county. We will start with local customers and do some test burns for the four major power plants in the area. We hope to get started in the next couple of quarters," said Hyita.
Seth McCourt, also from Consol spoke next he hung up a map of the mine and explained the former workings and where they hope to go in at this time. He said, "In mid-January we opened the doors to go into the mine and it was worse than anticipated. In the old workings there were stability problems. We are looking at a productive way to access reserves. The newer entries are in good shape. We will seal off the old workings and start new. We estimate there are 15-16 million tons of recoverable reserves which will be mined with a continuous miner.
"We are in favor of the proposed county loop road through Consol property and would like to discuss funding on that with you," said McCourt.
Rex Funk said the loop road would be a benefit in the area for farmers to access their lower properties and also to keep the trucks from Live Earth out of the residential areas of the town of Emery. It would also help with snow removal in the area and be more convenient for the road department.
McCourt said, "We have started the permitting on the other section of the mine." Commissioner Hatch wondered whose property the section was on. McCourt responded that some are federal lease and also Consol owned property. Val Payne wondered if the 4th East portal had been approved. McCourt said they have the approval to access coal, but are putting together the information to submit for the coal handling facility. Payne wondered what time frame they were looking at for reopening. McCourt said their goal was to be producing coal by Oct. 1. He mentioned the coal market would dictate production. But they hoped to mine 350,000 ton the first year. But, that production was subject to change.
Commissioner Johnson said, "We appreciate your coming today to give us an update and we anticipate the long awaited reopening of the mine."
Rosann Fillmore, economic development director for Emery County was next on the agenda. She said the Industrial Park board has agreed to sell what's left of that property to Talon Resources. She pointed out the Industrial Park would keep the wet portion. Talon would purchase the remaining 12.3 acres. The commission approved the agreement.
The next item on the agenda was the citizen's concerns. Eugene Johansen said he had a few remarks. He was interested in Consol and mentioned that Energy West mines seven million ton per year, Suffco-five million ton, Skyline four million ton, Genwal-three million ton and Co-op Mine just under a million ton per year. He said he had a question about the new public safety complex. He said he had looked through the books on statutes but could not find anything pertaining to what governs an open canal. He was concerned about the safety issue of annexing it and putting it in the middle of Castle Dale City. He said a fence would be needed on both sides of the canal leaving 50 feet on each side. This would cost approximately a half a million dollars. This needs to be addressed and plans made as to how to handle this. Would the water users pay? Would they get a grant? Would the county build it? These are questions that need to be addressed stressed Johansen.
Commissioner Johnson explained that the only reason Castle Dale City is annexing the public safety complex is because the State court has successfully secured funding to join the project and they have to be within the boundaries of the county seat in order to meet state statutes. Castle Dale City will be annexing a line of property to run to the jail. Commissioner Johnson described the situation as a dilemma and said, "We have to obviously be creative in dealing with the canal."
Commissioner Hatch wondered who normally would be responsible for maintaining the canal. No one could answer that question. Commissioner Johnson said that they would have to look at the annexation in a new light.
The next item on the agenda was the approval of the issuance of a business license for Genwal. The next item on the agenda was the approval of the reappointment of Mack Huntington and Ken Stilson to the Planning and Zoning Commission. The next item on the agenda was the approval of the appointment of Jackie Ungerman to the Emery County Travel Bureau.
The next item on the agenda was the presentation by Bruce Funk on the school district boundaries. They are reviewed every 10 years based on the information gathered from the census. It was determined that the boundaries were within limits and that the numbers were closer than they were previously. Commissioner Hatch made a motion to reaffirm the boundaries as they are currently mapped.
The next item on the agenda was the transfer of watershares to Castle Dale City to cover the needs at the public safety complex. The May Tax Sale was set for May 23 at 10 a.m. at the courthouse. The next item was the approval of the minutes with a few minor changes. In the commission reports the commissioners reminded citizens of the upcoming meetings on the Monument proposal. The meeting was adjourned into executive session.
The next commission meeting will be held on April 2 at 4 p.m.
The Price Field Office of the Bureau of Land Management initially released the Environmental Assessment for the San Rafael Route Designation Plan February 7, 2002. The objective of the San Rafael Route Designation Plan is to establish a vehicle network which would provide recreational and other access to public lands while at the same time protecting sensitive natural and cultural resources. The Plan implements a decision reached by the BLM in 1991 when it completed the San Rafael Resource Management Plan. This land use plan directed BLM to identify and designate specific vehicle routes within "Limited Use Areas" where vehicle use is restricted to designated roads and trails. The plan affects over 1.1 million acres of public lands.
Four alternatives with specific objectives designed to resolve conflicts and concerns with the resources and manageability and analyzed. Alternatives range from designating all 1,074 miles of inventoried routes to designating 580 miles of routes.
BLM has received a request to extend the public comment period beyond the current March 22 date. BLM has reviewed the request and is granting an extension of the public comment period on the San Rafael Route Designation Plan until April 22.
Written comments should be submitted to : BLM, Attn: Route Designation Plan, 125 S. 600 W., Price UT 84501.

Laurier gears up for second-annual Three-Minute Thesis competition
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Jan 9/14
Writing a thesis or major research paper is difficult enough. Effectively explaining it in less than three minutes? Sounds impossible.
But on March 4, Lauriers second-annual Three-Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition will challenge masters and PhD students to do just that: condense months, or even years, of research into a three-minute presentation, using only one slide.
Aimed at improving research communication skills, the 3MT® competition gives graduate students just three minutes to present their thesis, dissertation or major research paper to a panel of non-experts. The panel picks a winner based on set criteria including communication style, engagement with the audience and audience comprehension of the research.
The winner will receive a cash prize and act as Lauriers representative at the Ontario 3MT® Competition hosted by McMaster University on April 24.
"The 3MT® helps graduate students develop the capacity to explain their research effectively and succinctly to a general audience," said Joan Norris, dean: Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. Last years participants inspired us with the scope of their scholarship and their ability to communicate complex ideas simply and meaningfully.

It's the year of 2009!
It is a sentimental landmark which signifies the ending of the old and welcomes the beginning of the new: new year, new start, new goals, new friends and a brand new world! Today, we say goodbye to the year of 2008, which becomes the past, rather than the present, along with all its memories - both the good and the bad. We say goodbye to the 2008 Christmas and we say goodbye to our 2008 paper calendars in order to hail the present and the future that is 2009.
During the year of 2008, I made some good memories in this site, most notably the foundation of The SOS Brigade and the making of new friends. Those are the things that I can carry onto the new year. There are also things that shall stay behind, such as my prolonged "holiday vacation" during which I was irresponsibly absent from this forum - which shall end today. All in all, I'd like to say that 2008 was a merry year that created blissful memories that I shall treasure. What about you? Has 2008 been a good year to you? I sure hope so.
While 2008 was not perfect (the declining economy, the wars and the lack of a Haruhi season II et etc.), it is preferably to think of the past year in a pleasing light. Let not unpleasantness corrupt the beautiful dawning of 2009. Let us enter this new year with a lighten heart, open mind and a big smile! Let 2009 be OUR year!
So! What is YOUR new year resolution?
-Achieve Better Grades (Regular stuff. Always reach higher)
-Make More Friends (You can never have enough of them ^^)
-Become a Better Person (my personality is very flawed. Trust me, I can be very eccentric. >.<)
-Become More Active in MangaShare (as some of you guys may know, I have been...umm...absent for various...erm... personal reasons. I promise that you guys will be seeing more of me this year ^^)

Nothing to worry about, though, according to Bees manager Keith Johnson. He simply pulled Trout after he was hit in the fourth inning because Salt Lake was already up, 3-0, and the skipper wanted to play it safe.
"It was just a precautionary thing. We had a lead at the time, so rather than having him play through it, I pulled him," Johnson said. "Everything's good."
Trout tripled in the first inning and came around to score Salt Lake's first run on Alexi Amarista's sacrifice fly. He then walked in the second before getting hit with two outs in the fourth. That ended up sparking a seven-run, two-out rally.
MLB.com's No. 3 overall prospect is hitting .400 with one home run, 11 RBIs and three doubles in 18 games with Salt Lake. His four triples tie for the Minor League lead with Albuquerque's Alex Castellanos, Birmingham's Jared Mitchell, Frisco's Engel Beltre and Charleston's Tyler Austin.
Johnson said the thing he's noticed most about Trout is how much his actual game matches the hype that surrounds him.
"He comes as advertised," said Johnson. "You hear about his speed and you see it show up every day. You hear about his ability to put the ball in play, have good at-bats and you see it every day. He plays solid defense. You look at a player of his caliber, with all the surrounding hoopla and to see him work as hard as he does on a daily basis, it's rare."
Johnson said he's never managed another player like the Angels' top prospect, and thinks it's only a matter of gaining a bit more experience before Trout is ready to stick with the team at the Major League level.
"I think the biggest teacher is experience, and that's the one thing that he doesn't have that's going to make him a Major League player," said Johnson. "As far as the tools and the ability to compete, he's at that level. The things that you mess up as a player as you're coming up, doing something in a certain situation that you shouldn't have done, that's the only thing that I've seen that's lacking.
"The parts of his game, his ability, all that stuff is ready. It's just the reps, the games played, so to speak, that's holding him back."
Salt Lake's 16-run outburst Sunday was a team-wide effort, with six different players picking up at least two RBIs. Designated hitter Paul McAnulty homered twice and drove in three. First baseman Efren Navarro went 4-for-6 with two doubles and four RBIs and second baseman Jorge Cantu went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two RBIs. No. 15 Angels prospect Kole Calhoun, Alexi Amarista (No. 12) and Ryan Langerhans each drove in two apiece as well.
Starter Brad Mills (2-0) earned the win after allowing one run on six hits and one walk with three strikeouts over six innings. Loek Van Mil worked two scoreless innings in relief and Francisco Rodriguez set down Tucson in the ninth.
