How transient room tax is collected was discussed by the Emery County Commission on May 18. Currently the Utah State Tax Commission collects the TRT monies. The Utah Association of Counties is forming an agency to collect the TRT. Grand County collects their own TRT money and has had success doing that, in additional funds being collected. The UAC agency will keep 1.5 percent of the total tax to do the collection and take care of the paperwork. TRT monies are to be used to promote tourism and can also be used for museums.
The commissioners approved a public hearing to be held on June 15 at 10 a.m. to discuss the installation of an ordinance to have UAC collect the TRT funds for the county.
Commissioner Gary Kofford pointed out that one advantage to going with UAC would be that the county would receive the interest for the money collected.
A position on the Emery County Travel Bureau has been vacated and advertisement for a replacement will begin. Doug Richards has resigned and the position will be filled with someone from Green River. The vacant term will expire in December 2005.
A right of entry was approved for SITLA to conduct a seismic survey on their land east of SR-10 and I-70. There will also be a 30 day public comment period on the seismic survey.
The next item discussed was the museum employees. The Green Thumb program has reduced funding and will only be able to keep one employee. It has been proposed that the county pick up the other former Green Thumb employees and put them on as county employees, beginning at minimum wage, less than 20 hours per week with no benefits.
It was determined that the museum director, Jan Petersen would work with personnel director, Pat Snowball to work out a job description for the museum positions. At the current time the pioneer museum is being operated solely by volunteers.
Brittany Ungerman made a request for a donation to attend a Cheer Hawaii USA camp. She was directed to the recreation district for a donation.
A letter to the BLM concerning the rehabilitation plan for the historic Swinging Bridge was approved. Rotting boards on the bridge will be replaced and the bridge will be painted. It is the goal of the historical society to insure the bridge's safety while leaving it as natural as possible.
The Cleveland and Elmo libraries are in need of hand rails to be ADA compliant. Road department employees will install the hand rails as they have time on Fridays and Saturdays. Commissioner Kofford said they need to be installed by June 22. Commissioner Hatch mentioned the road department employees had installed the hand rail at the courthouse and had done a good job.
A concern was expressed about parking at the museum, a need for painted lines was discussed and will be taken up with Castle Dale City.
Notification was given of the resignation of Marlin Eldred, economic development director. He will be taking a position in Jerome, Idaho. The matter will be taken before the board to decide on a plan of action for recruitment. Commissioner Sitterud thanked Eldred for the work he has done in the county.
The commissioners gave their reports on where they have been and what they have been working on; Commissioner Hatch reported he had attended a meeting at the Huntington Airport on the airport plan. A preliminary report was given as to the progress being made there. A few suggestions and corrections were made to the preliminary plan. A public hearing will be held at a later date. Improvements will include widening the runway and improved lighting will be installed in the future.
Commissioner Hatch mentioned the improvements already taking place at the airport; things have been cleaned up and Rob Midgley, airport director, is offering scenic flights, courier service, charter flights and he has been working with the search and rescue as needed.
Commissioner Hatch reported on some improvements which will be made on the road from Orangeville to Ephraim above Joes Valley. There is deterioration at the third switchback up and as a federal forest highway this road is eligible for funding for repairs. A preliminary plan is being prepared now and construction expected to take place in 2005.
Commissioner Hatch said that David Shaver from Genwal had been in to discuss plans at the mine. They have purchased the Crandall/Little Bear lease behind the old Swisher #4 mine and will be harvesting the coal there. Swisher originally backed out of the area because the coal was low. Current technology makes it more feasible to recover the coal and a longwall has been purchased which will take care of low coal. Plans are also underway to open a portal on the south side of the canyon.
Commissioner Kofford said he had attended the DOGM comment meeting on the Rilda Canyon breakout for Energy West Mining. He said the meeting was sparsely attended, but he had only heard favorable remarks. The forest service also held their meeting on their resource management plan revision. Part of the plan includes the wild and scenic river issue. Two stretches of the Huntington River are currently in the wild and scenic process. The Left Fork of the Huntington is being considered for a scenic designation and the Right Fork from Electric Lake to the forest service boundary is being considered for a recreation designation. The forest service is still looking for input.
Commissioner Kofford also met with UAC representatives and discussed the centrally assessed businesses and they also met with PacifiCorp who indicated their valuation statewide is up a little from previous years. PacifiCorp indicated there wouldn't be a tax appeal at this time.
Commissioner Sitterud reported that construction of the low water boat ramp at Joes Valley will be postponed until October, as the area is now underwater.
The lawn at the care and rehab facility in Ferron will be reseeded.
Commissioner Sitterud attended Utah State Parks meetings held at Green River last week and he said they pushed the idea of adding the nine holes to the golf course.
There is a problem in how the golf carts will get across the main road to access the back nine. Possible solutions are being looked at by the parks board.
Commissioner Sitterud said the mineral lease payments are coming in on time and going well since, Randy Johnson was appointed to manage the mineral lease committee at the state level.

Just outside the city of Siem Reap, in northern Cambodia, lies Angkor Wat, a vast complex of ancient temples so breathtaking they've become a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a national symbol.
Visitors flock to Angkor Wat during sunrise and sunset for the best photos of the towers—an iconic view featured on Cambodia's flag.
An example of Cambodian Khmer architecture—with three rectangular galleries, central towers, a moat, and elaborate bas-relief carvings—Angkor Wat is the best-preserved of the region's temple complexes
Initial construction began on the Harmandir Sahib (aka the Golden Temple) in Amritsar, India in 1588; the signature external gold plating and marble were added in the early 1800s.
The Golden Temple in Amritsar, India is surrounded by a sacred lake known as Amrit Sarovar, or Pool of Nectar.
The island village of Rameswaram, in southern India, has become a major pilgrimage destination thanks to the famous Ramanathaswamy Jyotirlinga Temple, dedicated to the god Shiva.
The most breathtaking feature of the Ramanathaswamy Jyotirlinga Temple in Rameswaram, India are the corridors; the interior ones run between colonnades and sandstone pillars.
Centered around a triple-gabled circular structure that points to the sky, the Temple of Heaven complex in southeastern Beijing, China was built in the early 1400s by the same Ming Dynasty Emperor Yongle who oversaw the creation of the Forbidden City.
White marble gates mark the entrance to the Temple of Heaven in Beijing.
Beijing's Temple of Heaven features the iconic Hall of Prayers for Abundant Harvest, a colorfully painted three-story circular wooden structure constructed without the use of nails.
Topped with a pure-gold paste roof, main temple at Ta'er Monestary in Tibet is filled with silk brocade banners, gold and silver lamps, and important relics.
The complex at the Ta're Monastery includes more than 30 temples.
Considered one of the most important monasteries in Tibet, Ta'er (also known as Kumbum), was founded in 1560 as a place of meditation.
Taktsang Palphug Monastery, also known as Tiger's Nest, is a Himalayan Buddhist complex that clings to the face of a 10,000-plus foot granite mountain looming over the upper Paro valley.
Today, the Tiger's Nest complex in Bhutan includes a monastery, residences, four temples, and meditation caves.
Standing about 325 feet high, Shwedagon Pagoda and its multi-tiered stupa in Yangon, Myanmar are topped by a 76-carat diamond and covered with real gold donated by generations of Burmese people.
Visitors to Myanmar's Shwedagon Pagoda will find giant statues of mythological lions, a 19th-century bell, and various shrines and prayer pavilions, along with a steady stream of monks and worshippers.
Shwedagon Pagoda in Myanmar is one of the most sacred sites for Burmese Buddhists.
Constructed between 1998 and 2008, Wat Rong Khun in Chiang Rai, Thailand looks like the winter palace of some fairy tale queen, with its intricately carved all-white structure and elaborate, icicle-like towers.
Thailand's Wat Rong Khun is known as the White Temple; the color represents Lord Buddha's purity.
Artist Chalermchai Kositpipat built Wat Rong Khun in Chiang Rai, Thailand.
Not a single nail was used in the construction of Kiyomizu-dera, a Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan that was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The main hall at Kiyomizu-dera in Kyoto features 139 tall pillars, and houses a statue of the eleven-faced, thousand-armed god Kannon, and spacious terraces that jut out over the surrounding hillside.
Kyoto's Kiyomizu-dera complex also houses shrines to various gods, including Jishu, the god of "matchmaking," plus 200 stone statues of Jizo, protector of children and travelers.
Built in 1633 on the western shores of Bali's Lake Bratan, for which it is named, the Hindu temple of Ulun Danu Bratan pays homage to the god Shiva as well as local lake and river goddess Dewi Batari.
Ulun Danu Bratan Temple is one of the most iconic and photographed spiritual sites in Bali—which is saying something on an island renowned for its pious destinations.
Lake Bratan and its goddess watch over fertility, so many ceremonies are conducted at Ulun Danu Bratan Temple in the name of fertility and prosperity.
Baha'i House of Worship (also known as the Lotus Temple) in New Delhi, India features 27 free-standing "leaves" arranged to form nine sides.
Three separate, winding entries lead to the colorful, multi-tiered Taoist Temple set 984 feet above sea level on the island of Cebu, one of the top vacation spots in the Philippines.
Built in 1972, the Taoist Temple in Cebu, Philippines has a chapel and wishing well, plus elaborate dragon carvings and panoramic views over downtown.
Located in the Santa Monica Mountains, the Malibu Hindu Temple was built in the traditional South Indian style, with a carved flat-topped tower; unlike many in India, though, this example is all-white instead of colorfully painted.

I got a tweet a few hours ago asking for "the ultimate veggie burger" recipe. When the corn is still good (and it is), this recipe, adapted from How to Cook Everything Vegetarian, is pretty ultimate.
Midsummer Vegetable Burger
Makes: 4 to 6 servings
Time: 45 minutes
This light, colorful burger, which gets its crunch from corn, is terrific on a bun, especially with a little Salsa, Chile Mayonnaise, or Roasted Pepper Mayonnaise, or with sliced ripe tomatoes and drizzled with basil pesto.

Blame Walker for Mass Transit Death Spiral
Cut cut cut. No no no. It's a good thing that Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker isn't in charge of childhood nutrition in our homes. All of our children would be dead of starvation.
Unfortunately Walker is in charge of funding for transportation and he's deciding which routes are worthy of funding for a few more years and which ones are falling victim to his budget hacksaw. It's been pretty difficult to get people to ride the bus if you're eliminating the stops near their house or near their destination. If you want to make it tougher, and clearly Walker does, go ahead and raise fares to among the highest in the country.
You would think that there wouldn't be much in the way of consequences when gas is at an all time high, right?
Bus ridership in Milwaukee has dropped to the lowest it has been in 33 years and there are further cuts in store for the ailing transit system which is the only mass transit option for County residents.
So what is the solution? The City of Milwaukee should take over mass transit. If voters in the suburbs want to continue to return Walker to the County Executive position, and it seems increasingly clear that they do, they have sent a message that they do not value mass transit. Why then, should City residents suffer under the clearly incompetant hands of Walker.
For all the naysaying that Walker's allies on Republican run talk radio stations like WISN and WTMJ say, mass transit is viable in Milwaukee County. Just a few years ago, when democrats used to still run the county, Milwaukee County won awards for having the highest farebox recovery in the entire nation.
The entire nation.
But now, under Walker, whenever costs rise due to inflation he looks to make cuts to the core responsibilities of Milwaukee County — transit, parks, social services and criminal justice.
As transit routes are cut and fares are increased by Walker, ridership will continue to plunge. Walker's answer? More cuts. Higher fares.
Simple economics eludes the man.

Event Detail Information
Sustainability Seminar Series - Water Soluble Electronics
A characteristic feature of modern silicon integrated circuit technology is its ability to operate in a stable, reliable fashion, almost indefinitely for practical purposes. Recent work demonstrates that carefully selected sets of materials and device designs enable a class of silicon electronics that has the opposite behavior -- it physically disappears in water or biofluids, in a controlled manner, at programmed times, and in an environmentally benign way. This talk summarizes recent work on this type of 'transient' electronics technology, ranging from basic studies of dissolution of the key materials, to development of components and systems with radio frequency operation, to invention of schemes for externally 'triggering' transient behavior.
This seminar will be broadcast live and also archived on our website www.istc.illinois.edu for later viewing. If you cannot attend the event at ISTC, you may view the webinar live by registering at: https://www4.gotomeeting.com/register/507424991

Some very good material in this show, but it doesn't quite pack the punch it could and Lasse seems nervous. Worth watching in future years.

Update 22 Feb 2012: Apple have now extended the deadline to June 1st.

On March 1st, Apple will change the rules of the Mac App Store to require all applications to run inside of a 'sandbox'. Unfortunately, this will disallow important SourceTree functionality that was previously acceptable under store rules. Complying with the sandboxing rules would

Who are these important people? Lambert presented a group of ordinary people at a time when the subjects of group portraits were often people with wealth or status in society. He mocked the assumption that importance is a matter of money or property. He created an allegorical image representing a range of qualities that are possessed by people in the world: motherhood and the new life and energy of future generations; physical prowess and the fighting forces of the world; business and administrative acumen; and the ongoing activities of the world, represented by the red cartwheel.
Lambert's portrayal of these working people and his strong characterisation appealed to his contemporaries, but they found it an enigma; they were puzzled about the subject and how the oddly assorted group of figures fitted together into one scene. They considered it to be a most incongruous group, made more so by being grouped in front of a cart above the sea. They would have preferred a more literal story to Lambert's allegorical one. The Observer critic, P.G. Konody, suggested on 26 April 1914 that 'one could accept it as a triumphant assertion of the theory that it does not matter what a picture represents, so long as it be well painted'.
The Daily Express critic observed on 16 April 1914 that the flower girl
has her momentary importance since the advent of Eliza Doolittle and her 'horrible language'; the prize fighter has as big a public following as the musical comedy 'star'; and on the importance of babies Blue-books and Royal Commissions galore have often insisted.
The reviewer proceeded to ask of the gentleman with the top hat in Lambert's painting, 'is he a stockbroker' or 'merely a professor of phonetics?'. In his most famous play, Pygmalion (1912), George Bernard Shaw made fun of social snobbery and the way people judged others according to class. Important people was not an illustration of Shaw's writing, but it was a variation on his socialist ideas, showing a flower girl and a prize-fighter posing with the authority of eminent citizens.
The woman who initially posed for the mother, flower girl or costermonger was a professional model, a young unmarried mother from Battersea whose baby, shown in the rush basket, died while the painting was in progress. (Lambert reworked the head a year later, using another model, Eunice Graham; see the drawing, cat.56.) The model for the boy was a boxer, Albert Broadrib, who was training for his first fight and who Amy Lambert said arrived 'escorted by a bodyguard of one or more trainers, who watched over his feeding and smoking' (Lambert 1938, p.55). The model for the businessman was William Marchant, the head of Goupil Gallery, a man of great charm and affability who had retired to Hove but travelled to London for the sittings. Lambert made several pencil sketches for various figures in the group. The signature with the inscription 'Chelsea/Sydney' indicates that he reworked the painting again in the second part of 1921.
Lambert commented that although 'many people think this picture was influenced by certain movements which were going on in London' his approach was more influenced by the Italian primitives and Botticelli. It was a 'desire to create a picture which would look good in any light ... It was the working within a fixed limitation, a little span of which Puvis was so proud ... It was the beginning ... of a reverence of rule, of order' (ML MSS A1811, p.76). It was a decorative composition, a concern with the arrangement of shapes. To this end Lambert deliberately flattened the forms, placing an emphasis on line and strong design. He intentionally used a high-key, pastel palette and created a dry, chalky texture for his paint, 'working wax and turpentine into his paint to do away with shininess and the unevenness of surface' (Lambert 1924, p.15). He drew with pencil into his paint to outline the figures.
Lambert's decorative and colourful arrangement of figures in fixed poses, nonetheless, resembles those in the paintings of Eric Kennington, William Strang and other British realists with whom Lambert exhibited. Important people was shown in 1914 alongside Kennington's Costermongers , and the reviewer for the Daily Mail , 24 April 1914, described these paintings as 'huge staring groups of life-size people, represented in a brutal airless way, though with a great deal of technical cleverness', and acknowledged that they were protests against the 'namby-pambiness' of the usual group compositions.
When exhibited at the International Society's 1914 exhibition, Important people was a succès de scandale. It received greater critical attention than any of Lambert's previous works, with the reviewer from the Daily Express suggesting on 16 April 1914 that the painting would 'provide dinner-table discussion for the next fortnight'.
Although highly admired and greatly controversial during his lifetime, this painting was still owned by Lambert at the time of his death. The Australian critic Basil Burdett wrote that 'Important People assumed its place unchallenged as the most complete pictorial essay' in Lambert's memorial exhibition, and went further to suggest that it was 'perhaps the most important pictorial conception achieved by Lambert' (Burdett 1930).

ENOVIA Program Experience
Collaborative environment for global project team members to access, manage and report on their task assignments.
ENOVIA Program Experience allows project team members to collaborate and report status on their assigned project tasks across the global enterprise. Project members get real-time access and visibility to their project assignments and raise risks and issues to communicate up-to-date status and collaborate with cross-functional team members on project deliverables.
- Collaborate on task deliverables with real time reporting on actual status for assigned project tasks along with easily tracking critical tasks
- Mitigate and report status on assigned project risks
- Capture and execute ad-hoc project risks
- Track meetings, decisions, and artifact baselines so that traceability is established for historical reference
Manage Task AssignmentsProject team members are provided with a consolidated list of their assigned project tasks from all the projects they are members. Project members can filter their tasks based on completion status. All critical tasks appear in red font for easy visibility. Task assignees can further define subtasks within constraints of the estimate start and end dates defined by the summary task. To communicate status, project members can update task percentage completion and enter applied effort.
Task DeliverablesAs tasks are assigned and being worked, task deliverables should be associated and managed in the context of the task. As deliverables progress through their lifecycle, the system automatically updates task status. After tasks are completed, the deliverables are stored and categorized into project folders for additional access control and increased visibility. To keep task deliverables on schedule, project leaders can configure automatic reminders of upcoming or late tasks that project members will receive in their company email.
VPM Project ManagementFor companies using either ENOVIA® VPM V5 or ENOVIA® VPM Central® V6, it is possible to monitor design activity with the project using ENOVIA Program Central V6. This allows access to outputs from design on the corresponding project tasks. In V6, ENOVIA Program Experience and ENOVIA® VPM Central™ both run on the same technology platform. Therefore, users can search for and associate VPM data as deliverables to assigned project tasks easily. VPM Tasks are assigned to designers as part of the ENOVIA Program Central WBS and are accessible immediately within his design environment. For companies using ENOVIA VPM V5, ENOVIA Program Experience synchronizes project tasks to VPM actions. These triggered VPM V5 actions include required input for a designer to do his job.
Project ContentControlled and uncontrolled folders and subfolder structures securely manage and store all project contents. Security is established on a per project basis with a project owner and project leads determining individual access rights. Within a project, each folder and file maintains additional levels of security. Lifecycle controls establish folder content baselines as a means of measuring performance and historical references. Team members can establish a single environment for managing and sharing all project information — not just documents. By subscribing to document events, members become immediately informed as changes and additions occur. Reports provide a consolidated list of project-related content from either the work breakdown structure or from the file folder structure.
Team CollaborationProject members can create ad-hoc routes or workflows to circulate tasks, projects, and files for further work and/or approvals and conduct online discussions regarding a project or task. All team members can subscribe, view, and comment on the original discussion topic or any of the subsequent responses.
Issue / Risk ManagementIssues are real incidents, inquiries, or problems that impact a project negatively, and risks are anything that potentially can impact a project negatively. Issue management provides a context for capturing, tracking, and closing Issues in the context of a project. Issues are identified, captured, classified, and assigned to project members for resolution. Risk management enables project teams to identify, quantify, analyze, and mitigate project risks. During the analysis process, risks need to be assessed and quantified in two dimensions. These two dimensions are impact and probability with ranges from 1-5. These dimension values determine risk priority and clarify which project risks need mitigation to help minimize potential negative impacts.
Project Meeting TraceabilityMeetings are used to maintain artifacts for historical references. Project members can define a meeting for their assigned tasks with an invitee list, record of actual attendance, agenda topics and items, and time duration allocated for each topic. To record what was discussed during the meeting, project members can associate document attachments, capture issues that need follow up and record meeting decisions.
The Role of ENOVIA V6 and PLM 2.0ENOVIA Program Experience supports PLM 2.0, product lifecycle management online for everyone, and the ENOVIA V6 values: global collaborative innovation, single PLM platform for intellectual property (IP) management, online creation and collaboration, ready to use PLM business processes, and lower cost of ownership.

Ask a local tennis fan in Paris and he or she would say that Sloane Stephens has a certain "je ne sais quoi" when it comes to the stellar performances she delivers at Grand Slam events. She has had an up-and-down season since reaching the fourth round of the Australian Open in January, but for Stephens, any past results seem to fade away once a vision of seven wins and a field of 128 players comes into focus.
The 2014 French Open, which now is as wide open as any second week in recent memory, could be hers. The 21-year-old Floridian reached the fourth round of a major for the sixth consecutive time, the longest active streak among WTA players. The notion of players being hard-court or clay-court specialists has long been a way to categorize players; it's unique, perhaps unheard of, to consider a "Slam specialist." Yet Stephens embraces her emerging reputation.
"I think it's really cool," Stephens said after her most recent match, a 6-3, 6-4 win over Russia's Ekaterina Makarova. "If I knew [what led to the success], I would capitalize on it; I would do it every week. I guess it's all just a learning experience."
Stephens has yet to drop a set during her latest run, with wins over China's Shuai Peng, Slovenia's Polona Hercog and No. 22 seed Makarova. She'll next face fourth-ranked Simona Halep in the round of 16; with top-seeded Serena Williams, No. 2 Li Na and No. 3 Agnieszka Radwanska all eliminated after three rounds, the fast-rising 22-year-old from Romania inherits the role of favorite.
"It's a surprise that the first three seeds lost and not easy to be the highest one left, or to play Sloane," said Halep. "I played her in Australia a couple of seasons ago and she beat me very fast. Now I think I'm more prepared than I was then. I have confidence I can take revenge."
With John Isner losing his fourth-round matchup against fifth-ranked Tomas Berdych, Stephens is the only American left in either singles field.
Here are the other headlines from Roland Garros during week one:
Serena stopped: Spain's Garbine Muguruza, 20, garnered notice in the second round by defeating Williams, 6-2, 6-2, knocking out the defending French Open champion and world No. 1. Williams, 32, endured her most lopsided loss at a Grand Slam in 54 events played, winning just four games.
Williams dropped just a single set in seven matches en route to a Roland Garros title in 2013, but this year's performance for the 17-time major champion harkened back to her early exit in 2012 in Paris, when she lost her opening-round match against France's Virginie Razzano. Williams followed that with victories at the Olympics, Wimbledon and the US Open.
"It was one of those days – you can't be on every day, and, gosh, I hate to be off during a Grand Slam," said Williams in her post-match press conference. "It happens, you know. It's not the end of the world. It is what it is."
Nearing Cloud 99: Bob and Mike Bryan are doing their best to brush aside any recent disappointment on clay as they've reached the French Open men's quarterfinals, in this their 16th appearance as a team in men's doubles.
The No. 1 tandem lost their first bid for their 99th career doubles title together when they lost to Canada's Daniel Nestor and Serbia's Nenad Zimonjic – a fairly decorated duo in their own right, with three Grand Slam titles – in both the Madrid final and Rome semifinals last month, thereby negating any chance that Roland Garros would be the site for a milestone 100th tournament victory as a team.
It's been easy going thus far for the 36-year-old California twins, winning all six sets played thus far. Should they beat Spaniards Marcel Granollers and Marc Lopez in their next match, third-ranked Nestor and Zimonjic – and an opportunity to earn a bit of revenge – would likely be there for them in the semis.
Butorac back again: Fresh off his first major doubles final back in January, Minnesotan Eric Butorac is now making another run at the French.
Butorac partnered with South Africa's Raven Klaasen to beat the Bryans en route to the Australian Open men's doubles championship match. The two were defeated in the second round in the Roland Garros men's draw, yet Butorac played on and is now a few wins away from a mixed doubles title, teaming with Hungarian Timea Babos.
Babos just turned 21 in May, while Butorac is 33. The unlikely couple gets France's Alize Cornet and Jonathan Eysseric in the quarterfinals.
Tiafoe in the win column: Francis Tiafoe came through with a strong 6-4, 7-5 win over France's Clement Larriere in the opening round of the boys' singles draw in his first Grand Slam appearance as a No. 1 seed.
For the 2013 Orange Bowl and 2014 Easter Bowl champion, it was his first main draw singles win at a major. The 16-year-old from College Park, Md., is currently the No. 2 junior in the world.

It has a special place in political life because it documents the history of the nation. Indeed, as Ken Khachigian, the chief speechwriter for Ronald Reagan, noted: One thing that struck me about reading all the inaugural addresses is that they are a history of America. You can go through, beginning with Washington, and you can learn all about the country just by reading them. If you did nothing else, you'd know almost all about the history of the Civil War, about the Depression, about World War I, about World War II, and about the Vietnam War. Don Baer, speechwriter for Bill Clinton, summed up the importance of the inaugural address as "the one communal national monument that we have had right along, throughout the entire history of country." And Ray Price speechwriter for Richard Nixon, called the inaugural a "ceremonial speech with a programmatic content" and "one of the great sacraments of democracy." He said the opening lines of Nixon's first inaugural summed up what the sacrament is: "Senator [Everett] Dirksen, Mr. Chief Justice, Mr. Vice President, President Johnson, Vice President [Hubert] Humphrey, my fellow Americans, and my fellow citizens of the world community, I ask you to share with me today the majesty of this moment. In the orderly transfer of power, we celebrate the unity that keeps us free." In June 2008, the Miller Center hosted a symposium on presidential speechmaking that featured nine former Republican and Democratic speechwriters who served every president from Richard Nixon to Bill Clinton. One of the sessions included a discussion on Inaugural Addresses. The session provided an insider account of writing the inaugural address, what makes an effective inaugural and what the addresses should be about. In this post, we highlight some of their key insights. Patrick Anderson, speechwriter for Jimmy Carter, noted that in an inaugural address, you introduce yourself as President, you are no longer just a candidate: It is solemn. It is historic. I think it I also, under the surface, a very competitive situation, because you are very aware that you are going to be judged against [John F.] Kennedy and [Ronald] Reagan and other great speeches of the past – which tends to inspire both the candidate and his writers to make their best effort. It shouldn't be partisan or political. It should be inspirational and personal, I think. It should be an attempt to unite the nation for a new start, which all new presidents think they're going to accomplish. Baer added: I think that inaugural addresses ought to be elevating. I think they need to remind the nation more of what we have in common than what divides us. Baer also suggested that inaugural addresses must strike a balance between thematic and programmatic content: …writing only about the thematic can leave the listeners pretty empty. The concrete and the specific do come into play in very important ways…if you think about that speech [Kennedy's 1961 inaugural address] in particular, it's a very specific speech with a great deal of very concrete and focused policy woven into it. I think we've all struggled with that challenge. You wan to make sure that everyone understands precisely what you're talking about even as you're trying to frame it in language that is more inspirational for the country. Price drew attention to one of the key differences between a first inaugural and a second inaugural address: The first is more dramatic because it is the start of something new. The second is a continuation. The inaugural is a ceremonial occasion. It is not a time for hortatory or that sort of thing. There's a lot less drama to the second inaugural. You're trying to keep something going, knowing that most administrations tend to go downhill in their second term. My guess is that it's rare that the second term matches the first. You lose steam. The people who came in are tired. New people are coming in and so forth. Most people have no idea how exhausting the White House can be for people in it, unless they've been there…especially speechwriters… You're trying to inject a little new vigor and new life, some new ideas in the second term, but knowing that it is a different kind of newness. Don Baer noted that another key difference between the first and second inaugural is the fact that the president is still governing: It's very difficult to find the moment to pause and step aside to think through what is, in some respects, one of the most important addresses than any one of these people will ever make, to build a process that helps you do that while you're also churning out the daily speeches, and to put some people on the side to think about it some more…The process begins to break down the closer and closer you get to the speech…There were some long nights of the soul in the four or five days leading up to the speech. The panelists also suggested that a president should write as much of the inaugural address as he is able and willing to, but speechwriters also have a role in it. Richard Nixon, for example, worked with Price on the inaugural address. Jimmy Carter took over the writing of his inaugural address and made it personal. Carter included lines speaking directly to the people that Anderson would have advised against, such as: Your strength can compensate for my weakness and your wisdom can help to minimize my mistakes. Bill Clinton, meanwhile, sought advice and counsel from a wide circle of people, including authors and former speechwriters, typically Democrats. His speechwriters were charged with trying to help control what was included. The speechwriters also discussed how the audience is different for inaugurations. Price, for example, noted that the audience is much broader that people who actually attend the ceremony. Presidents are speaking to the nation and to the world and are very conscious of doing so. The delivery of an inaugural is also different from other speeches a president will give because it is delivered outdoors in a big open-air setting. They don't get the love they are used to from large crowds of people because the president can't hear the applause. Furthermore, often the weather is cold and gloves muffle applause. With these insights in mind, we hope you'll have a better appreciation for the inaugural on Monday!

Leicester Tigers have recalled half-backs Sam Harrison and Owen Williams for Friday's LV= Cup match against Bath at Welford Road.
Leicester Tigers have recalled half-backs Sam Harrison and Owen Williams for Friday's LV= Cup match against Bath at Welford Road.
Harrison has recovered from injury to make his fourth appearance of the season, taking over from David Mélé, while fly-half Williams exchanges places with Ryan Lamb who is among the replacements this week.
George Catchpole is selected on the left wing following Adam Thompstone's call-up to the England Saxons squad.
Tom Price comes in at lock, with Steve Mafi switching to the back row alongside Argentina international Pablo Matera, who makes his first appearance at Welford Road, and number eight Thomas Waldrom who is named as captain.
Other senior players in the line-up include Scott Hamilton, Matt Smith and Rob Hawkins.
Henry Purdy and Will Owen, both named in the 23-man squad at Harlequins last weekend, are with England Under-20s for the start of their Six Nations campaign and are replaced on the bench by Academy wing Rhys Williams and back-rower Michael Noone.
Meanwhile, flanker David Sisi will make his first start for Bath.
Sisi starts on the blindside, with Alafoti Fa'osiliva and Leroy Houston joining him in the back row. Stuart Hooper returns at lock to captain the side, alongside Dominic Day. In the front row, Charlie Beech gets his first start of the season at loosehead, Ross Batty is at hooker and Juan Pablo Orlandi continues at tighthead.
Academy back Ollie Devoto is given the nod at fly-half with the experienced Peter Stringer joining him in the halfbacks.
The backline sees only two changes from that which dispatched Cardiff Blues last weekend, as Gavin Henson is named at inside centre to partner Matt Banahan in the midfield and Nick Abendanon returns at fullback. Flyers Tom Biggs and Richard Lane keep their places on the wings.
The teams:
Leicester Tigers: 15 Blaine Scully, 14 Scott Hamilton, 13 Matt Smith, 12 Terrence Hepetema, 11 George Catchpole, 10 Owen Williams, 9 Sam Harrison, 8 Thomas Waldrom (c), 7 Pablo Matera, 6 Steve Mafi, 5 Sebastian De Chaves, 4 Tom Price, 3 Fraser Balmain, 2 Rob Hawkins, 1 Tom Bristow.

Federation: Australian art and society 1901-2001
8 December 2000 - 11 February 2001
Alfred Deakin, one of the architects of Federation, said that the deed was accomplished only "by a series of miracles." Today we can barely imagine how hard it was to forge six quarrelsome colonies into a single nation. John McDonald, curator of the exhibition, argues that it is still debatable whether those issues that unite us as Australians outweigh those that divide us.
Federation: Australian Art and Society 1901-2001 is an exhibition that confronts such questions. A mosaic of the past century, Federation looks at the entire sweep of Australian history and culture, from the opening of the first parliament to the vibrant and diverse society we have become. The exhibition is both a celebration of one hundred years of nationhood, and a critical survey of our achievements.
To tell the story of the twentieth century some 270 works of painting, sculpture, photography and the decorative arts have been assembled. The list of participating artists features many of the most distinguished names in Australian art, including Arthur Boyd, Sidney Nolan, Margaret Preston, Russell Drysdale, William Dobell, Grace Cossington Smith and Max Dupain. Celebrated 'icons' will be set alongside lesser-known works that enrich our appreciation and understanding of the more famous pieces.
Among the highlights
of the show are several major paintings from the National collection,
that have never been previously exhibited, including George Lambert's
restored masterpiece, The Old Dress (1906); John Olsen's Sydney
Sun (1965), purchased recently; and Keith Looby's Resurrection (1964), a gift of James Fairfax AO.
The exhibition has been divided into seven sections:
- Beginnings (featuring work from the era of Federation, including stunning portraits by the leading artists of the day, such as Tom Roberts and Hugh Ramsay);
- The Land (the evolution of landscape painting, from the pastoral dream of the 1920s, through the harsh desert views of the 1940s, to a more lush and inviting vision of the local environment;
- Cities and Suburbs (an overview of urban and suburban Australia, the places where most Australians choose to work and live);
- Boom and Bust (from the depths of the Depression to the quasi-religious fervour for Development);
- Patriotic Duty (Australians at war, from the sacrifices of the Somme to a peace-keeping role in East Timor);
- At Ease (sport and leisure, including images of the beach, the pub, the races, cricket and football); and
- Encounters (works that deal with the most controversial political issues of the century, intended to change the way we think about Australian culture and ourselves).
The Director of the National Gallery of Australia, Dr. Brian Kennedy said that 'It is fitting, as we approach one of the most significant moments in the history of Australian nationhood, that we pause and reflect upon these great images. In this exhibition viewers will discover the splendid visual representation of what it means to be Australian'.
The exhibition is supported by the National Council for the Centenary of Federation, as one of the central events of the anniversary festivities. After the show concludes in the national capital in February, it will tour to Melbourne, Townsville, Newcastle, Perth, Darwin and Launceston - a program that should enable as many Australians as possible to experience this historic collection.
Federation: Australian Art and Society 1901-2001 will be opened by the Hon. John Howard MP, Prime Minister of Australia on Friday, 8 December at 5 for 5.30.
The exhibition is accompanied by a 270 page, fully-illustrated catalogue, which will retail for $29.95 during the course of the exhibition.
The National Gallery of Australia gratefully acknowledges the assistance of the Seven network.

My favorite boots this winter
"I love the two textures on this boot as well as the edgy lug sole. They have a very high heel but are comfortable to me-I wear them all day. I ordered my usual size 8 and they fit perfectly with tights or a thin sock. If you want to wear a winter weight sock, definitely go up half a size. I get compliments every time I wear these boots!"

Hackers Have a New Target: Your Car
Cars today have data ports and event data recorders (black boxes), and they can and are being hacked in a variety of creative ways. Bad guys are rolling back odometers, stealing cars with electronic keys, erasing crash data and more. And wait, it all gets worse when every car has 4G access.

In the August public lands council meeting several topics were discussed. A SUFCO mine environmental engineer, Leland Roberts came before the council. He was concerned about opinions voiced in the July public lands meeting which mentioned that mining activity had dried up a spring. Currently SUFCO is mining in the five left panel. In the future they will move more to the south and west toward the main mine portal. He stated he wasn't sure where the comments came from on the mine drying up a spring, but he would like to find out more and answer any questions.
Gary Petty, lands council member said he has made comments. In the Fish Lake area they have had a spring dry up. In the past SUFCO has hauled water for livestock, but this year the mine didn't haul water. "The springs dried up on the side where mining occurred, they are dry now and they weren't dry before," said Petty. He commented mining a mile away can still dry up a spring.
The comment was made that the springs are different from one side of the mountain to the other.
Petty stated the mining company has been very supportive in the past, but this year they refused to haul water. Roberts said they weren't contacted to haul water this year. Petty commented they were contacted.
The North Water was dried up and work there didn't succeed in bringing back the spring. A pipeline project is still being considered to bring water into there from a different area. Water has been hauled in there in the past.
Petty said, "We appreciate what you've done, but our cows have gone without water."
Roberts said, "Well, it's not due to mining."
Petty said, "That's debatable. The good neighbor policy is to haul water."
Lands council member, Mistie Christiansen said water replacement is in the Emery County general plan. The plan is in place to prevent these things from happening. "We don't want to wait until it becomes a critical issue, when it affects the town's (Emery) water supply," said Christiansen.
Petty said he has participated in field trips with DOGM to look at the springs which have dried up. It's hard to find proof for what has happened. DOGM cannot do anything without proof.
The problems with North Springs have been ongoing the past few years. Sherrel Ward, lands council member wondered how to make sure the water gets replaced.
Roberts reported they have hauled water and placed troughs there.
Marc Stilson from the Division of Water Resources reported their part in the pipeline to replace water is done. Darren Olsen said the project is in the process of being permitted by the US Forest Service. This pipeline will help replace water to that area.
The Division of Wildlife Resources has begun work on a project to reintroduce Colorado cutthroat trout to the Ferron drainage. Kash Winn, rancher expressed his appreciation to the DWR for meeting with the water users and addressing their concerns with the project. The Ferron Canal Company has been concerned about the effect of the reintroduction on future downstream water projects. Winn requested they be kept informed and involved as the process moves along. They don't like the project but will tolerate it. They are concerned about endangered fish, but they are also concerned about rural agriculture. Winn said they have a lot of confidence in working with the state, but not a lot of faith in federal agencies.
Ward asked Winn if it was correct in saying the local cattlemen and water users will support the project to prevent listing of the Colorado cutthroat on the endangered species list. Winn said that was accurate as long as the interests of the cattlemen and water users are considered.
Paul Birdsey is the aquatics manager involved with the cutthroat project. He said an advisory council has been formed and they have held one meeting. He asked for a representative from the cattlemen, irrigation and sportsmen to sit on the advisory council. He said one question being addressed is the location of the barrier check dam. Winn requested it be placed at the narrows or above so it would not affect future sediment projects. Birdsey said it is not the intent of the project to change fishing at Millsite in any way only to make it better. A barrier is needed to prevent fish movement from Millsite upstream.
The bluehead sucker spawns upstream out of Millsite, but it isn't known how far up they go. The DWR will be tagging fish and a reader has been installed to detect their movement. When the flooding came down Ferron Creek, it blew out the reader and it has collected almost no data. After accurate data is collected a site for the barrier will be recommended. The DWR is trying to get data to see how much stream the bluehead sucker needs to reproduce.
Winn said people are worried about the family fishing on the Ferron and what the reintroduction of the Colorado cutthroat will do in that regard. Birdsey said Ferron Reservoir and Wrigley will be stocked with sterile fish. Those reservoirs won't need to be treated and closed. Bait fishing will still be allowed. Maybe sections of the stream will be artificial lure only. Some areas of the stream are inaccessible anyway and these areas will provide refuge for the Colorado cutthroat as they establish. Birdsey wanted it known if the Colorado cutthroat are listed the DWR will not be in charge anymore. He did say however there is a provision under the endangered specie act where real property owners can enter into an agreement with the Fish and Wildlife Service that says enough has been done to preserve the fish and we don't want anything to change here. This is an agreement water users can enter into. It does not include grazers because grazing rights aren't considered real property.
In the Bureau of Land Management update, Karl Ivory said the new Utah BLM director is Juan Palma. He graduated from BYU and has sons at BYU and Utah State. He likes Utah. He is a former field manager in Las Vegas. He coming to Utah from serving as the Eastern States Field Director. Palma plans to visit the Emery County area on Sept. 20 for a visit. Ivory said there may be some changes in store under Palma's direction. He likes documentation. On the West Tavaputs, EIS the 30 day comment period will end on Aug. 31. Ivory reported the leaf beetle has been busy eating tamarisk. With the defoliation of the tamarisk and their demise it will make room for native vegetation.
Mark H Williams, lands council member asked about the restrooms for Justensen Flat. Ivory said they are still in the works and he doesn't know when the project will be done. The money is available for the restrooms.
The final comments on the Information Center at Buckhorn Flat are coming in. It is expected to be complete in April 2011. Winn asked Ivory if they will do burning to remove the tamarisk after it dies. Ivory said they are using some burning. They are reseeding areas to re-establish species, but it is expensive and labor extensive.
Birdsey said the project they are involved with the tamarisk, clears 1,000 acres and reseeds and will be a $500,000 project by the time it's done.
Stilson from water rights reported they have been on field trips above Lila Canyon mine and SUFCO.
The man from dam safety gave an update on Millers Flat. He said the berm stability work was done last year and they are looking for funding to complete the project. In dealing with high hazard dams that need updated and upgraded, Millers Flat is on that list. The State has been providing the money through water resources grants. If there is an immediate threat it can be dealt with immediately and not through grant money. Millers Flat is greatly improved, but not finished.
Christiansen asked what the process would be to get the old Henningston dam back. He recommended they hire a consultant. The problem with that dam was sink holes near the dam. Sink holes away from the dam aren't a problem. Have someone re-evaluate what needs to be done. It could be a very expensive process. You could also tear it out and redo he suggested.
April Abate from the coal program for DOGM said the discharge from the water in Crandall Creek has an elevated iron concentration. The mine has taken steps to lower those levels and has been in compliance since March. The abandoned uranium mines reclamation project is also ongoing.
Bryan Torgerson from SITLA said the Elmo dump site is being cleaned up and the sheriff's office has offered the help of the trustees to complete the clean-up. The sheriff's office will also monitor the site once it is clean to prevent further dumping. Torgerson said they are selling very little SITLA property now and the fall public auction probably won't be held.
Darren Olsen, ranger for the Ferron District said there have been a few lightning strikes and hotspots on the forest around Scofield and Lake Fork. Resurfacing work is being done on the Potters road and the Bacon Rind road. Olsen reported that work will take a month. The Lakes fuel timber sales will be advertised and up for bid on Sept. 1. The Reeder subdivision Road document was signed on July 28 and placed on the federal register for the 45 day appeal which will end mid-September after which that road can be paved.
Williams said the forest service needs to install restrooms for the boulder climbers that come to the Joe's Valley area. The area is advertised heavily, but there are no accommodations there for the boulderers.
Winn thanked Olsen for the forest service grant for the Dry Wash work in Ferron.
Williams said the state is trying to resolve the RS-2477 road issues and beginning with Iron County and it will affect Emery County at a later date.
Priscilla Burton, lands council member encouraged everyone to comment on the website of the Great Outdoors Initiative. Ray Petersen, public lands director attended the meeting in Salt Lake for the Great Outdoors Initiative hosted by Ken Salazar.
Val Payne, public lands consultant also urged everyone to comment on the website so the rural perspective can be heard.
