The consequences of the Seeley Mountain fire are coming home to roost and may be with the area for a long time. The rain storm that hit the area on Wednesday night, caused so much damage in Huntington Canyon that parts of the canyon will be closed for a few days.
Capt. Kyle Ekker from the Emery County Sheriff's Office reported the rain on Aug. 1 caused severe flooding. SR-31 will be closed from Rilda Canyon to the bottom of Electric Lake for at least the next five-seven days.
"There are problems at Tie Fork and Horse Canyon. The road has been undercut. The undercut at Tie Fork runs for approximately 50 feet. The road has just dropped off. There will be a temporary fix, so we can get traffic through, but, for the long term we are going to look at getting some funding sources to repair the damage. There are some engineers from UDOT coming down Friday to look at the road to see what can be done."
Ekker went on to describe in detail damage in other places as well.
"Pole Canyon is a mess, there were six foot boulders in the road from the storm," he stated. "We flew the area and Pole Canyon was one of the worst. Where the dirt used to be, it's down to the bed rock now and looks like a giant waterslide. The UDOT crews will work to get the road fixed temporarily, but there are going to be problems for a long time to come. There are several log jams along the river." According to Ekker there were no bridges were washed out but debris that came down the river is scattered all along the banks and in the stream. The flood water was coming by the Huntington power plant at 1,600 cfs for a couple of hours.
"It rained for approximately 45 minutes and it dropped approximately 1.25 inches of water within that time," said Ekker.
When the road reopens everyone is urged to stay out of the canyon if there is rain predicted. The bare, steep hills will be sources of flash flooding for the next few years. Emery County Recreation has closed the Bear Creek Campground for the remainder of this camping season due to the dangers from flash flooding and debris flows.

Special Offer
Book by February 28, 2017 to save 10% off our previously offered price!
Mount Vesuvius is inaccessible from November 16 – March 31. During these months, your volcano hike is replaced with a tour of the National Archeological Museum of Pompeii.
- Comprehensive tour of the city
- Soak up the atmosphere on a walking tour
- Step back in time on a history tour
- Perfect introduction for first-time visitors
- Pickup from a centrally located meeting point
As Europe's best-known active volcano, Vesuvius gained notoriety for the destruction of the ancient towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum in AD 79. See the scars of ancient lava flows while traveling to the volcano's foothills, and then hop off your coach to walk to the top. Hiking up to the crater is the best way to experience Vesuvius' magic, and after 20 minutes of steady-paced walking along soft volcanic ash and pumice stone you'll hit the top.
Gaze down into the crater and enjoy some free time up on the ridge to soak up the volcanic views, set against the dazzling backdrop of the Bay of Naples. After taking pictures and drinking in the vistas, walk back down the volcano with your guide, and hop back aboard your coach for the short journey to Naples.
Enjoy one of the city's world-famous pizzas for lunch, and then head south to the ancient city of Pompeii. Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Pompeii's archeological site is fascinating to explore with well-preserved fossils and ruins that lay beneath volcanic ash for centuries.
See its sights with your guide, noting where the restaurants, shops and brothels of ancient Pompeii once stood. Marvel at the remains of the Forum and see Teatro Grande – an impressive theater that once sat some 5,000 people. See plaster death casts of the victims, and then hear how they were 'discovered' in the 18th century.
After exploring the excavation site, return to your coach and travel back to Rome. Your tour finishes at the start point in the early evening.
Please note: Mount Vesuvius is inaccessible from November 16 – March 31. If you choose to travel during these months, your Vesuvius visit will be substituted with a tour of the National Archeological Museum of Pompeii. Housing an impressive collection of artifacts, statues and artwork taken from Pompeii during excavations, the museum is the perfect complement to your visit to Pompeii!

I attended the Emery County Public Lands Council public meeting the night of Jan. 26.
The only land management issue discussed was national monument status, which was not advertised as the specific topic, so many of the audience were caught unaware.
Bruce Funk asked that a mail-out of some type be sent to all the county taxpayers before a decision was made. The request was denied.
We were told that they want President Bush to do this as an executive order. (Already the Sierra Club is saying it is not large enough. Should be at least one million acres.)
This designation does not solve the wilderness study area problems. They will still be there. The RS2477 roads right-of-way issue has never been resolved.
We were not told by Governor Leavitt, the county commissioners or the public lands council that 48 hours later Governor Leavitt was going to announce in his state of the state address that we're going to be the San Rafael national monument. (With the stroke of a pen a monument can become a park.)
This decision was ramroded through. A room full of people were used as patsies, so the public lands council and county commissioners could say they took it to the people. This was a dog and pony show.
It may not have been illegal, but it was unethical and dishonorable.

78-year-old earns PhD
By Eric Coker, Inside BU
Kishen Kapur has some simple but solid advice for his fellow students.
"Become addicted to learning," the 78-year-old Vestal resident said. "Learning is what makes the difference in life."
More than a half-century after earning his master's degrees, Kapur received a doctorate in electrical engineering from the University in May.
"The closer [Commencement got], the more excited we [were]," said daughter Rani Kapur '84, MA '88, a cardiologist in Sidney. "I don't know where he got the gumption to do this at his age."
Kapur, born Aug. 16, 1930, received his undergraduate and master's degrees from Bombay University in India in 1952 and 1954. He came to the United States in 1956 and attended Kent State University in Ohio, receiving a master's degree in mathematics. In July 1958, Kapur got a job with IBM, where he worked as a physicist and senior engineer for more than 30 years.
"It was the key thing in the area," he said of IBM. "It was the industry."
Kapur, who married wife Marie on May 5, 1961, has four children: Rani, Kristna '88 (a dentist in Ithaca), David (an attorney in Endicott) and Karin Walsh (a retired educator).
In the 1990s, the self-described "addict for electronics" decided to explore the field at Binghamton University. Getting a PhD was not the motivation to take classes, Kapur said.
"I wanted access to the library and to play with electronics," he said. "Those were my two desires. So I thought, 'They won't let me just go and play, so I'd better sign up for something.' … I liked the privilege of getting any number of books from the library. That was nice. And working in the lab, I had full freedom to work on projects."
And what was the family's reaction when Kapur announced he was going back to school?
"They told me, 'You're nuts,'" Kapur said with a laugh. "'You're in retirement. Why do you need this?' I didn't have an answer, other than that I am addicted to this."
The family, though, is indeed elated for him.
"It's incredible that at his age he wants to continue to learn," Kristna Kapur said. "It is a really big deal. He didn't do it for the graduation or the hype. He did it for personal goals. I don't think I could go back to school now. He's an inspiration for doing this."
Kristna Kapur said her father was always helpful in math and physics and remains someone who "can fix anything" from simple toys to her advanced dental equipment.
"Growing up it was always 'Dad knows how to fix it,'" she said. "For the second generation, it's 'Grandpa knows how to fix it.'"
The "addiction" of electronic assembly and repair goes back to India, Kapur said.
"One of my professors went to MIT and came back with instruments for doing experiments in nuclear physics," Kapur said. "I told him that I could make (the instruments) for him. He didn't believe me! I gave him an offer: If it works, you keep it, you pay me. If it doesn't work, you throw it away and we're done.
"He placed an order; I delivered it. Since then, I've been making electronic equipment on the side — instrumentation for all kinds of custom electronic equipment."
At Binghamton, Kapur worked with his adviser, electrical and computer engineering Prof. James Constable. The two even published a paper together after Kapur became a student. Kapur said sometimes he took up to three classes a semester, other times he spent the semester doing research while on "Grandpa duty."
Kapur credits Constable with allowing him to work at his own pace.
"Dr. Constable is the one who kept me on track," he said. "He guided me: let's do this, let's do that. … He took me on a tour of campus to get me started and now he'll be putting the hood on me at Commencement."
Constable is pleased that he will see Kapur receive his doctorate.
"It's nice that he hung in there and he's finishing," Constable said. "It's the kind of thing you like to see as a faculty member."
Kapur never attended any of his three prior Commencement ceremonies and was not going to attend this weekend's ceremony until his family intervened.
"We said, 'Dad, this is a big deal,'" Kristna Kapur said. "Not many people do this at his age. And this isn't basket weaving. It's electrical engineering."
"I said, 'OK, but this is the last one,'" Kishen Kapur said. "There's three doctors in the family. We had to have another one. Three is an odd number."
The family is expecting 16 people to cheer for Kapur, including Marie, the four children and six grandchildren ranging in age from 3 to 30.
Despite modesty and a terrific sense of humor ("I just want it to be over with," he said with a laugh about the ceremony.), Kapur admitted it will be nice to be honored this weekend. But he reiterated that it was his love of learning and electronics that brought him to this point.
"I'm not going to go and get a job," he said. "If there's an electronics job I like, I'll do it for nothing!"

Rumours were circulating today that Microsoft is set to dump HD DVD and bring out a Blu ray Xbox 360 by as early as May 2008. The move will allow the Company to go head to head with the Sony PS3 gaming console which has been credited with being one of the main reasons that retailers have preferred Blu-ray over Toshiba's HD DVD.
Insiders at Microsoft in the USA have told SmartHouse that Microsoft has already configured a standalone Blu-ray player that can be connected into an Xbox 360 and that subject to internal marketing and sales approvals the model could be on sale within 3 months.
The Company has also been working on a built in Blu-ray player however insiders are claiming that Microsoft see the HD format battle moving online with consumers offered 1080p movie and content files as a download as opposed to having to buy a HD DVD or Blu-ray disc.
Both Intel and Microsoft have been supporters of the HD DVD format that is set to be killed off this week.
The Company has also held discussions with several OEM manufacturers of media centres with nearly all of them telling the software Company that they are set to move to Blu-ray configured Media Centres within the next month.
Late last week US Media Centre maker Niveus dumped HD DVD in favour of Blu-ray.
The Company VP of marketing Brian Paper said that Niveus had received support from Microsoft and Intel when implementing HD DVD. The format wasn't pushed on Niveus, he said, adding that the commitment in both Intel and Microsoft "isn't religious for HD DVD".
Michael Ephraim the Managing Director of Sony Computer Entertainment said: "We would welcome Microsoft to the Blu-ray stable. In fact it is quite logical for them as the PS3 has been very succesful in driving consumers to Blu-ray. In fact we believe that it has done more to win the format war than traditional Blu-ray player".
When asked whether Sony would grant Microsoft a Blu-ray licence he said: "That is up to Sony Corporate but I see no reason why they would not do it".
During CES 2006 the then Microsoft's Xbox corporate VP of worldwide marketing and publishing Peter Moore told Japanese site ITmedia that a Blu-ray Xbox 360 peripheral could appear for the system if the need arises. Moore admitted that Microsoft isn't sure of the next-generation format war's outcome, with the worst-case scenario being a repeat of the Beta vs. VHS war of the '80s.
However, he suggested that whatever the outcome of the HD-DVD/Blu-ray war, the Xbox 360 can adopt the dominant format since its uses an external drive.

SHANGHAI – General Motors Chairman and CEO Dan Akerson reinforced the company's commitment to China at the groundbreaking of two new joint venture facilities in Shanghai and during meetings with local government officials.
Shanghai GM broke ground for a new manufacturing plant and the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC) began construction of a new R&D facility on June 19.
Akerson reaffirmed the company's plans to make Cadillac a larger player in China's luxury market. "We see great potential to attract more buyers with Cadillac's blend of luxury and performance," he said. "The manufacturing plant we are here today to break ground on will be the home of even more new Cadillac models when it begins production."
Shanghai GM's new manufacturing facility at its Jinqiao complex will build Cadillac vehicles for the domestic market when it is completed in 2015. It will include a body shop, paint shop, general assembly shop, auxiliary facilities, and high-speed and brand experience center. The state-of-the-art plant will adopt the world's most advanced automation systems as well as a range of new technologies and processes for lean and green operations.
With an annual capacity of 160,000 units, the new plant will support GM's plans to triple sales of luxury vehicles in China to 100,000 units within two years. Cadillac will add one new model per year through 2016, starting with the XTS sedan, which went into production in Shanghai earlier this year. The new plant is part of Shanghai GM's plan to refresh its brands, product portfolios and technologies in order to strengthen its position in the market over the long term.
PATAC's new R&D center will support its ongoing development of vehicles in China for local consumers. It will help PATAC maintain its domestic industry leadership, with additional facilities for vehicle design, engineering, powertrain and new energy vehicle development. At the same time, it will enhance the joint venture's position in GM's global engineering and design network.
The two facilities represent total investment of RMB 8 billion (US$1.3 billion).
GM's SAIC-GM-Wuling joint venture also began construction Tuesday on a new Wuling production base in Chongqing in southwest China. With investment of RMB 6.6 billion
(US$1.1 billion), the first phase is scheduled for completion in 2014. It will have an annual planned capacity of 400,000 vehicles.
"GM made a long-term commitment to China when we established our roots here more than 15 years ago," said Akerson. "That commitment is exemplified by the growth of our operations in Shanghai as well as in the central and western regions. By working with our partners and joint ventures, we are creating new opportunities for our customers and China's automotive industry."
Akerson also sat down with local government officials. During meetings with Shanghai Party Secretary Han Zheng and Mayor Yang Xiong, Akerson discussed the company's plans for expansion in the city as part of US$11 billion in capital expenditures in China by GM's joint ventures through 2016.
"We appreciate the government's continued support of our growing operations," Akerson said. "GM intends to continue investing and adding to its operations in this key market, as demonstrated by the new facilities we begin constructing this week."
He added, "Our joint ventures have been and will remain our foundation in China. Increasing our ability to design and manufacture vehicles locally will strengthen our position in the world's largest vehicle market and GM's largest market."
Akerson closed out his visit by meeting with employees at the GM International Operations and GM China Headquarters in Shanghai on June 20. He discussed the company's global business and the role China is playing.
"One of the keys to GM's continued growth in China is our talented people," Akerson said. "We have been leading in China because of your dedication and hard work over the past 15 years. With your help, we intend to remain a leader in this industry."
General Motors traces its roots back to 1908. GM has 11 joint ventures, two wholly owned foreign enterprises and more than 58,000 employees in China. GM and its joint ventures offer the broadest lineup of vehicles and brands among automakers in China. Passenger cars and commercial vehicles are sold under the Baojun, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Jiefang, and Wuling brands. In 2014, GM sold more than 3.5 million vehicles in China. More information on General Motors in China can be found at GM Media Online.

After a mastectomy, surgeons can use different techniques to create breast that as closely as possible matches the shape, size and feel of your breast. In terms of timing, there are two options for you and your plastic surgeon to consider: immediate breast reconstruction or delayed breast reconstruction.
Immediate breast reconstruction is done at the same time as your mastectomy. It can have both emotional and visual advantages. Some women find that waking up from a mastectomy with two breasts helps to ease the grief caused by losing a breast. Another advantage is that your surgeon can use a technique that results in less scarring.
With delayed breast reconstruction, the surgery is done at a later date. One reason why you may choose to wait is because it allows you more time to explore your options. Also, waiting allows you to complete other treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation. You should be 6 months post radiation therapy and 2-4 weeks post chemotherapy.
Delayed breast reconstruction can be performed weeks or even years after having a mastectomy.

Windows 8.1 Hits RTM, Aims to Win Back Customers
Jason Mick
August 27, 2013 7:12 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Start Button, boot to desktop, tile tweaking, tutorials, and many other changes look to win back customers
It's a time of turbulence for Microsoft Corp. (MSFT), the world's largest PC operating system maker. Amidst many struggles, Microsoft's ebullient leader Steve Ballmer announced that he will be
stepping down during the next year
, a
somewhat unintended departure
that his critics have
long been clamoring for
I. Ballmer's Bane Revisited
While Windows Vista may be Mr. Ballmer's
greatest disappointment
, the driving force behind his departure was arguably Windows 8.
Windows 8 started off a promising concept, but fell victim to a myriad of flaws and shortcomings, which have led to the
biggest percentage drop in PC sales ever
. One major issue was the scope of the redesign -- Microsoft dropped a very new and different interface on consumers with the graphically rich "Modern UI" (aka Metro) homepage and a slew of new multi-touch gestures. Where other similarly complex OSs such as Android include a built-in tutorial that helps teach users how to use the new UI, Windows 8 had no such tutorial. As a result many customers
wrote Windows 8 off quickly, "downgrading" to Windows 7
Other critical flaws in Windows 8 include Microsoft's inability to enforce
its intended touchscreen requirement
-- a critical pillar of the optimal Windows 8 consumer experience -- and Microsoft's
unwillingness to listen to customers
who wanted a backup traditional Start Button/Start Menu when in Desktop Mode.
Even as Mr. Ballmer prepares his exit, his company is aiming to fix some of its Windows 8 misses with Windows 8.1.
The Start Button hovers in Windows 8.1 allowing a fast return to the Desktop Mode. New users are now greeted with tutorials to help them learn the foreign interface in more of a friendly fashion. [Image Source: CNET]
Windows 8.1 and Windows 8.1 RT
hit Release to Manufacturing
(RTM) on Wednesday. The OS will be released consumers on Oct. 18 as
a free update for all Windows 8 users
II. Windows 8.1 Aims to Turn Around Windows 8 Flop
The RTM build should pack a near complete feature set -- include the aforementioned missing tutorials and Start Button. While
not the Start Button that some consumers were hoping for
, the new Start Button hovers familiarly in the lower left-hand corner, allowing you to quickly flip into and out of the Modern UI -- essentially an unrolled Start Menu -- with a click. Windows 8.1 also
restores the ability to boot to desktop
-- rather than the Modern UI Homepage.
It also integrates
numerous other improvements
, including unified themes; new Modern UI core apps; the ability to unpin, group move, and resize tiles at will; and an improved Windows Store.
Microsoft has taken a gamble by putting the people behind Windows 8 and its mobile twin Windows Phone 8
in key positions of leadership
, during the
recent executive shakeup
. This is a clear testimony to the fact that while Mr. Ballmer may be being shuffled out the door, Microsoft's Board of Directors believes the company was headed in the right direction with Windows 8 and merely failed on the delivery.
Windows 7, Microsoft's
greatest sales success
, was born out of the ashes of the
poorly received Windows Vista
. Likewise Microsoft is looking to hone the sooty carbon of Windows 8 into a diamond with Windows 8.1. Windows 8.1 RTM is the last major milestone in that pre-release refinement process.
"A politician stumbles over himself... Then they pick it out. They edit it. He runs the clip, and then he makes a funny face, and the whole audience has a Pavlovian response." -- Joe Scarborough on John Stewart over Jim Cramer

When Heritage High School student Brock Ciarlelli got the call aspiring actors dream about, his mother was so excited she almost crashed their car into Los Angeles traffic.
He had just received word he'd landed a recurring role on the hit ABC sitcom "The Middle," and he has since appeared in five episodes during the show's two seasons. The show also features Patricia Heaton from "Everybody Loves Raymond" and Neil Flynn from "Scrubs."
The thrills have yet to stop. Ciarlelli, now 17, won the Best Recurring Young Actor in a Television Series at the 2011 Young Artist Awards in March. It was his second nomination for his role as middle-schooler Brad Bottig, the flamboyant boyfriend of one of the show's main characters, Sue.
Earning the prestigious award came as a genuine surprise for Ciarlelli, who knew he was facing strong competition.
"When they called my name, I just sat back and let it sink in for a quick second," Ciarlelli said.
The good news keeps on coming. The show's producers recently told him he would be brought back for the third season, which will begin airing in September. He'll be moving to Los Angeles full-time in the fall to attend Chapman University and continue his acting career. Since landing his role on "The Middle" two years ago, he has split time between California and Colorado while wrapping up his studies at Heritage.
Now somewhat of a veteran, Ciarlelli says he feels more relaxed while filming. He's able to breathe and focus on the task at hand, and his efforts show up on camera.
"By doing that, it makes my performance a lot better," he said.
For his mother, Priscilla Ciarlelli, the excitement has yet to wear off. Her pride in her son is apparent in every word she speaks, and she hardly ever misses a performance.
"It's exciting. I'm tickled to death that I get to see him in action," she said.
Brock realized he wanted to be an actor at the young age of 5, after watching a community theater production of "The Wizard of Oz." He has involved himself in dance, theater, choir, and other performing arts ever since. It's this work ethic that he hopes to continue as a full-time actor in Los Angeles.
Fame and fortune aren't his goals, he said. He simply wants to make ends meet doing what he loves: acting. He looks forward to living in the city and being able to audition for roles more often.
"We're very proud of how practical and realistic he is," Priscilla said.
Although he doesn't have the time to commit as an actor in Heritage's theater club, he participates on the paint crew, which allows more flexible hours. He enjoys being involved and helping where he can, and appreciates that his fellow students treat him as an equal.
"It's nice that I have true friends that don't treat me any different (since starting on 'The Middle')," Brock said.
At Chapman University, Brock plans to study both screen acting and mathematics. Math will serve as his backup plan if acting doesn't work out.
As of now, that doesn't appear to be an issue.
"There's nothing like seeing your kid live his dream, and that's what I'm seeing Brock do," Priscilla said. "For a mom, there's nothing better than that."
The Middle airs at 8 p.m. on Wednesday nights on ABC. The final two episodes of the second season are scheduled for April 13 and April 20.

I have decided that I enjoy wuyi and dan congs more than any other type and that is why I wanted to dedicate a yixing teapot.
IMO Wuyi oolongs and Dancong benefit less from Yixing use than pu erh, but a good pot will make it taste better. Kind of sick of dancong at present, but I use two thin walled zisha Yixings for my TGY and SX and I do feel they bring the best out of my tea and allow me to keep the temperature up, especially in later infusions.
This is probably a stupid question but if the goal is to keep the heat up, why does everyone seem to recommend thin porcelain or thin yixing for oolongs? It seems that the thicker the material the longer it should retain heat
I believe the reason why some people recommend thin yixing or thin porcelain for oolongs is because sometimes people might be referring to a lighter oxidized or roasted type of oolong such as green TGY, Gaoshan, 20% Green Dan Chong, or Bai Ji Guan. For me personally, I do not like to brew any of the above teas in anything with thick walls (because I don't like the collard greens/spinach taste that can occur with lighter oolongs that have been "stewed" with too much heat) and they all should come out great in a nice thin gaiwan, however, having a very thin yixing can bring out certain characteristics that wouldn't be there if brewed in a glazed vessel such as a gaiwan. Now when it comes to darker oolongs such as all the other Wuyi Yan Cha's (besides Bai Ji Guan and if med to high fired), high fire TGY, or roasted Gaoshan; I would have to say that I always prefer a thick walled yixing of a particular clay that suits my tastes for those tea types such as Zi Sha, Hong Ni, Qing Shui Ni, or Di Cao Qing. I think the problem here lies in what the person brewing wants to bring out of the tea. Some people want the tea to taste exactly as as it came from processing with all of its faults and positives so they choose either a gaiwan or a more dense clay that doesn't absorb aroma and gives similar results as porcelain so as to see the "true nature of the leaf". But some others (like myself) like to "round out" those faults such as astringency & thin mouthfeel by using a more porous clay with medium-thick walls. So you see it all depends on what your individual tastes are and what you personally like to bring out/mask in the tea!

The Emery County Sheriff's Office has been dealing with a rash of burglaries on the northern end of the county. Detective Sgt. Robert Blackburn said the burglaries have mostly been in the Huntington area. The sheriff's office had an idea of who the suspects were and were investigating the burglaries and gathering enough evidence for a search warrant.
The theft of a bicycle which was handled by Sgt. Gayle Jensen also led to the gathering of more information and Sgt. Jensen collaborated with the detectives, Sgt. Blackburn and Sgt. Norm Vuksinick and also Deputy Clayton Bell was involved with the investigation.
Three 25 year old suspects from the Huntington area were brought in for questioning. The suspects confessed to the burglaries. One of the burglaries was at the San Rafael Research business in Huntington where computers were stolen. The storage sheds in Huntington were broken into and a generator and other items were stolen.
At the Huntington Rock Ridge apartment complex a truck was burglarized and several guns were taken from the truck. The guns were later found thrown off a cliff in Huntington Canyon. Those guns were recovered. These thieves also admitted to stealing diesel fuel from Nielson's Construction in the Buffalo Bench area.
Firearms were also taken from a vehicle in Elmo. A stereo was also stolen in the Elmo area.
"It was quite the crime spree," said Sgt. Blackburn. "We have been able to recover a lot of the stolen items and now we must work through who these items belong to so we can get them back to their owners."
The county attorney's office has evaluated all of the evidence and charged the parties involved with auto burglary, theft of firearms and burglary of a dwelling. Other charges are pending and the parties names will be released when the final charges are filed and the investigation is complete.
In unrelated incidents BKs Stop-n-Shop in Huntington was burglarized. A window was broken at the store and it is believed the robber hid in the store at closing time as it appeared the window was broken from the inside out. In this incident tobacco products were taken as well as candy items.
Another burglary took place at the Headquarters convenience store in Castle Dale. The glass on the front window was broken and items taken from the store.
Emery County Sheriff LaMar Guymon said, "We need to educate our county residents to keep their property locked up and their vehicles need to be locked up at night especially. Never leave a firearm in your vehicle. Lock your houses and garages and storage sheds. Even though we live in a rural area, we have quite a problem with theft. A lot of these thefts are crimes of opportunity. If things are locked up then it really does deter the thief. Some of the guns recovered hadn't even been reported as stolen. The owners didn't think we would ever find them. So make sure if you have items come up missing that you report it."

Starring Ralph Fiennes and Felicity Jones, the facts of this Victorian love affair have been woven into an intriguing drama - and to give you a taster of what to expect here is the official trailer…
Ellen Ternan was eighteen years old, a struggling actress with little to call her own in the world, whereas, when they first came to meet, Dickens was a mature man of forty-five, a literary giant, famed all over the world.
Dickens had been collaborating on a play with his friend, Wilkie Collins, and acting roles had been allocated to Ellen (or Nelly as she was often called) along with her two actress sisters. Despite warnings from his friends, Dickens' pursued Ellen ardently and matters finally came to a head when – in that most well-worn of scenarios – his wife discovered some jewels that he had bought for his lover - which had been delivered to the wrong address.
The secret was out, but Dickens refused to give Nelly up, going on to set his mistress up in various households in and around London – and under various assumed names. But as his reputation was based on being a devoted family man, an upholder of 'Victorian Values', he was not disposed to admit any fault – therefore treating his wife so shamefully, and claiming the marriage's failure was due to her instability, when in truth he had tired of her aging charms.

Citizens of Tallahassee enjoy a high quality of life. From public safety to reliable utility services and everything in between, the City strives to maintain the highest caliber of service and keep its citizens at the heart of everything it does.
With so much sunshine, it's hard to stay put in Tallahassee! The City offers a wide variety of ways for its citizens to enjoy nature, build social networks and stay active throughout their lives.
The City of Tallahassee is focused on seeing the local economy thrive. Here you will find information on programs geared to small and big businesses alike, information on doing business with the City, employment opportunities within the organization and more.
The day-to-day operations of the City of Tallahassee are as diverse as its citizenry. It is responsible for a variety of infrastructure as well as quality of life amenities. Be it a road project or budget report, the City strives to keep citizens as informed and involved as possible.
The mission of the City of Tallahassee is to provide excellent services and facilities to support a high quality of life for the community.
The City of Tallahassee is the seat of and only incorporated municipality within Leon County. It is the capital of Florida and home to two state universities.
Approximately 11 years ago, the City of Tallahassee, with input from citizens and business owners, developed the outline for a destination district in the heart of Tallahassee, a connection between the two universities close to downtown that would be the hub of arts and culture in Tallahassee. With this vision in mind, the City adopted the Gaines Street Revitalization Plan. The goal was to create a pedestrian friendly street and improve infrastructure to help develop a destination district that would be home to a blend of commercial, residential and cultural uses.
The funds to pay for the majority of this project come from sales tax, not property taxes. Voters initially approved the funding for the Gaines Street project as part of the Blueprint 2000 sales tax extension. Subsequently, in 2004, the City of Tallahassee and Leon County agreed to set aside $27.7 million of Blueprint 2000 discretionary funds to pay for the road construction, property acquisition and development incentives. Additionally, the City received another $7 million in road maintenance funds from the State of Florida when the road right-of-way was transferred in 2008.
As part of the plan, electric lines would be moved off the street, deteriorating underground utility lines would be replaced, and the road would be rebuilt within the existing right-of-way to a 2-way, 2-lane street with limited on-street parking.
The project began in earnest in 2009, with the replacement of underground utilities along the corridor. Around this time, electric lines and poles were moved, where possible, from the Gaines Street right-of-way to mid-block locations.
In May 2010, Public Works began construction on the reconfiguration of the road. Work took place between Monroe and Macomb streets and was completed in early fall 2011. Construction on Phase II from Macomb Street to Woodward Avenue began in early 2012 and was completed in April 2013. A roundabout was constructed at the intersection of Gaines Street and Woodward Avenue in summer 2014.
Revitalization efforts are paying off for the community. More than $128 million dollars in new development has taken place on Gaines Street since the start of the project, and that figure continues to increase.
On December 3, 2014, the City, Leon County and Community Redevelopment Agency celebrated the final milestone of the Gaines Street project with the official lighting of Declaration. This steel and glass sculpture, located in the roundabout at Gaines and Woodward, was created by Master Craftsman Studio and is the exclamation mark on this comprehensive project.
This project began more than 20 years ago as an idea. To date, this has been the largest sense of place project, and it has raised the bar for how infrastructure improvements are addressed. Gaines Street truly is a destination for our entire community. Thank you for your ideas and input during the planning process and your patience throughout the years of construction. We hope you enjoy the results.

Canada impresses in loss to U.S., at NORCECA Championships
CAGUAS, Puerto Rico – Canada gained some steam for the playoff round with a strong effort in a 25-19, 25-19, 25-23 loss to powerhouse U.S., on Tuesday in round robin action at the NORCECA (North and Central America and Caribbean) women's volleyball championships.
"I'm proud of how we executed today,'' said Canadian player Julie Young of Red Deer, Alta. ''I think we played well against the 2010 and 2011 Grand Prix Champions. I'm happy that we made them work for every point and we need to use this momentum into our the next match."
The Canadian team concludes the round robin at 1-1 will now prepare for a likely quarterfinal match on Thursday. The Americans are 1-0 and are heavily favoured to wrap up Group B on Wednesday against winless Trinidad and Tobago and land one of two wildcard spots for the semifinals.
Sarah Pavan of Kitchener, Ont., led Canada with 17 points while Marisa Field of Kelowna, B.C., added eight and led the team with four blocks for points.
"Our game was a lot better today than yesterday,'' said Canada's head coach Arnd Ludwig. ''We stuck to the game plan and did a lot of things right. The USA put a lot of pressure on us all the time, and that's why we came short at the end of each set. We need a lot of matches at this level to improve our game."
In Group A, action, Mexico defeated Costa Rica 25-21, 21-25, 25-11, 25-17 and will battle Puerto Rico Wednesday for top spot in the Group. In Group C, Cuba crushed Panama 25-13, 25-15, 25-7 and faces defending champion the Dominican Republic for first place on Wednesday.
This year's tournament winner earns a ticket to the FIVB World Cup in Japan in November.

- "I've devoted the past 30 years to helping patients struggling with Lyme disease, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Autism and other devastating chronic illnesses.* By unraveling the complex web of genetic factors, pathogens, and environmental exposures that contribute to these diseases and utilizing targeted treatment protocols, we can help people heal and ultimately reclaim their lives."
Dr. Anderson's Approach
Dr. Anderson's current focus is in helping physicians and other health professionals recognize hard-to-diagnose chronic illnesses while they're still in their earliest stages, when treatment can be most effective. Because of the complexity of these diseases, he also provides case management consulting to physicians, medical groups, and other health professionals.
Dr. Anderson's approach combines Functional and Integrative Medicine disciplines with the best of conventional medicine to create effective patient-specific treatments for these multi-factor, multi-system, multi-symptom illnesses.
Chronic Illness: Unraveling the clues.
Why are some people still ill after years of treatment?
Much like the tip of an iceberg, the prevailing symptoms only reveal part of what must be addressed for a patient to regain full and vibrant health.
Our approach to disease management focuses on the underlying factors determining health. It targets the reasons why previous treatments have fallen short. Using the latest research-based diagnostic tools and cutting edge science, we focus on deeper, more fundamental levels of healing by addressing individual metabolic, genetic, and environmental influences. These influences determine not only the proper treatment protocol, but also how well a patient will respond to treatment.
Depending on the individual, we may recommend protocols such as the Byron White Formulas that incorporate herbs with functional energetics. Or, for a patient where we must focus on metabolic or genetic factors, the optimum healing modalities may address correcting methylation or other biochemical pathways. Further, traditional treatment approaches, such as detoxification or conventional pharmaceuticals, such as antibiotics may also play a role in creating an optimal healing plan, customized for the individual patient.
By using treatments and protocols that utilize both traditional and complementary medicine, we have been able to make a dramatic difference in the lives of thousands of patients around the world suffering from Lyme Disease, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Chemical Sensitivities, Autism, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Attention Deficit Disorder, Food Allergies and even Depression and Anxiety. We welcome the opportunity to become your partner in improving the health of your patients.
*including Babesia, Bartonella, Mycoplasma, Mold, Heavy metals, Mercury, Viral illness, XMRV, Epstein Barr, Parasites, Parkinson's disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Headache, Depression, Anxiety states, Memory loss, Cognitive Dysfunction, IBS-Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Food Allergies, Celiac Disease, Leaky Gut Syndrome, Environmental Illness, Chronic Pain Syndrome, Methylation defects, and others.

I have been revisiting a couple of EOTs 2010 Productions and I am impressed with the change. The mouthfeel on the Manasai has really improved. The Manmai has gained allot of depth going from light and grassy to having hints of wood popping up.

Government Orders
11 a.m.
The Speaker Peter Milliken
Order. I hesitate to interrupt the hon. member. There are two minutes left in the time for questions and comments, but it is now 11:00 o'clock and we must proceed with statements by members.
Maskwacis RCMP Detachment
Statements By Members
11 a.m.
Blaine Calkins Wetaskiwin, AB
Mr. Speaker, this morning the Samson, Ermineskin and Montana First Nations bands at Hobbema, in the great constituency of Wetaskiwin, will celebrate the grand opening of the new Maskwacis RCMP detachment that will serve their respective communities.
The primary function of government is to provide for the safety and security of its citizens. This new facility will help to do that and more. It signifies a new beginning for these reserves that have wrestled with drugs, gangs and violence.
Three years ago, when gangs were recruiting the young people and causing havoc in these first nations communities, RCMP Constable Richard Huculiak, along with sergeant Mark Linnell, started a community cadet program that attracted over 900 young people from the four bands at Hobbema.
Teamwork, discipline, leadership and the courage to face challenges are skills the cadets are learning from their RCMP leaders. Instead of falling in with gangs, guns and crime, participating in the cadet corps provides them with new, rewarding experiences.
This is just one example of the dedicated leadership role the RCMP plays in our communities. I want to congratulate the RCMP on the grand opening of this new modern building as it continues to serve and protect Canadians.
Canadian Forces
Statements By Members
11 a.m.
Keith Martin Esquimalt—Juan de Fuca, BC
Mr. Speaker, tomorrow is the day we honour the sacrifices our veterans made on D-Day, and this Sunday is Canadian Forces Day.
On behalf of all Canadians, I would like to give our heartfelt thanks to the men and women who serve in the military, and their families, for the extraordinary sacrifices they make for our nation. I especially wish to thank the forces members and their families who serve at CFB Esquimalt, a group that I serve.
There are a number of things the government should do to help our military: first, create more day care and primary care centres near CF bases; second, create a centre for excellence for the care of CF members and their families; third, adopt initiatives that will prevent and treat operational stress injuries like PTSD; fourth, screen every CF member coming back from a combat mission for operational stress injuries; and fifth, ensure that the immediate family members of CF members are able to be covered federally for health care.
Our armed forces members and their families make an unlimited commitment to Canada. Canada should make a similar commitment to our armed forces members and their families.
Georgette and Gaston Legault
Statements By Members
11 a.m.
Luc Desnoyers Rivière-des-Mille-Îles, QC
Mr. Speaker, I rise in the House today to pay tribute to a remarkable couple from my riding, and to highlight an extraordinary event. On June 18, Georgette and Gaston Legault will celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary.
It is always a great pleasure for me to send heartfelt congratulations to couples, like this one, who are fortunate enough to be celebrating 60 years of married life, and indeed Mr. and Mrs. Legault are a wonderful example of understanding, tolerance and love.
On behalf of the Bloc Québécois, I wish them many more years of happiness and health together.
Congratulations and happy 60th wedding anniversary.
First Nations Energy Summit
Statements By Members
11 a.m.
Nathan Cullen Skeena—Bulkley Valley, BC
Mr. Speaker, tomorrow in Morristown, British Columbia, northwestern B.C., first nations will be hosted by the Wet'suwet'en chiefs, who will be holding an all nations energy summit.
Now this is showing a path and a future that all Canadians should pay attention to. First nations will be gathering business groups, environment groups, and municipal leaders together to talk about the energy future of the northwest, an energy future which includes green jobs, sustainable jobs for all of our communities.
It is almost a year ago to the day when this House received the first nations apology from the Prime Minister. It talked about a new relationship with first nations, one that was respectful and based on traditional values. Here we have a practical application and the government needs to pay attention, and listen to the way that first nations are coming forward and describing the future they want for themselves and their communities.
We can no longer have a model of government that describes energy in a way that is top down, driven only by the oil interests. This has to be from the grassroots up. The Morristown band is leading the way.
Canada Day
Statements By Members
11 a.m.
Laurie Hawn Edmonton Centre, AB
Mr. Speaker, we all know that tomorrow is the 65th anniversary of D-Day, and we have heard many eloquent words of gratitude and remembrance in this House.
We all know that thousands of brave Canadians are serving in Afghanistan and elsewhere today, and we are all inspired by their incredible efforts. Their service and sacrifice allows us to securely celebrate Canada Day every July 1.
For this 142nd Canada Day, I and several dozen other Conservative members of Parliament are challenging our constituents to show their pride by launching our "Proud to be a Canadian" campaign.
We have all sent out thousands of paper flags as part of our householders to the people of our ridings to display in their windows on July 1, to celebrate the rich heritage of our country and our flag.
People can sign up by filling out and returning the reply section of the householders which will allow us to keep track of how many people are showing their pride in Canada.
I know that Edmonton Centre will show that it is the most patriotic riding in Canada, but wherever we are across the land, let us all fly the maple leaf proudly on Canada Day and never forget who has given us the ability to do that.
David Humphrey
Statements By Members
June 5th, 2009 / 11:05 a.m.
Brian Murphy Moncton—Riverview—Dieppe, NB
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the Hon. David Humphrey, who died on May 17. Justice Humphrey was a leading criminal lawyer in Toronto for nearly 40 years prior to his appointment to the bench. He defended accused persons from all walks of life during his career. He achieved great success and received acclaim as one of the great counsel of his day.
He was passionate about justice, and always empathized with those who found themselves in the criminal justice system.
Prior to the coming of Legal Aid, he often acted in serious cases pro bono. During his career, in the 1950s and the 1960s, David Humphrey often acted without fee, even in capital cases.
When he was appointed to the bench, he soon acquired a reputation for not shying away from a stiff sentence when the crime warranted it.
He rejoiced in the nickname "Merciful Dave".
Mr. Speaker, permit me to express the thanks of the bar, the House and all Canadians on the passing of this great Canadian.
Vernon Vipers
Statements By Members
11:05 a.m.
Colin Mayes Okanagan—Shuswap, BC
Mr. Speaker, today I rise to congratulate the Vernon Vipers, who secured their place in Canadian Junior A hockey history with their fifth national title, on May 10, with a 2-0 victory over the Humboldt Broncos of Saskatchewan.
Bear Mountain Arena in Victoria was filled with energy as two of the best Junior A hockey teams in Canada took to the ice.
The Vernon Vipers secured their victory in the final game with goals scored by Braden Pimm and Kyle Bigos, winning the Royal Bank Cup.
The latest victory for the Vipers is in addition to winning the Interior Championship Cup, the Fred Page Cup and the Doyle Cup.
On behalf of my constituents of Okanagan—Shuswap, I applaud the Vipers, their management, their coaches and the entire staff for their hard work, which has led to another Vipers successful hockey season.
Benoît Tousignant
Statements By Members
11:05 a.m.
Meili Faille Vaudreuil—Soulanges, QC
Mr. Speaker, today is world environment day, and over 350 students from Vaudreuil-Soulanges are here on Parliament Hill asking us to take real action to protect the environment.
These students were mobilized by Benoît Tousignant, a "cyclonomad" and teacher at the Soulanges high school, who completed a 40,000 km cycling trip around the world. The purpose of his journey, which took him to 24 countries, was to raise awareness among young people about the environmental problems we have to fight every day. In an effort to obtain our support for sustainable development, these students wrote over 14,000 letters that they will be dropping off at the Prime Minister's office.
On behalf of the students and the people of Vaudreuil-Soulanges, as well as of my Bloc Québécois colleagues, I would like to sincerely congratulate Benoît Tousignant for his efforts to inspire us all to work toward a greener planet.
Statements By Members
11:05 a.m.
Deepak Obhrai Calgary East, AB
Mr. Speaker, on Wednesday, Meira Kumar was elected unanimously as the speaker of the 15th Lok Sabha, the lower house in the Indian parliament.
Meira Kumar joins other female leaders of India, the likes of Indira Gandhi and current President Pratibha Patil, and business leaders, like the CEO of the ICICI Bank Chanda Kochhar, all of whom inspire millions of women in South Asia.
Ms. Kumar, of Dalit background, has created another milestone as her appointment breaks through centuries of discrimination against the Dalits in India.
Like all fights against social evils, the fight against barriers for women and Dalits is a work in progress.
I wish to officially congratulate Ms. Kumar for this outstanding achievement.

Mr. Speaker, on May 12, Rodrigue Landriault, a great Franco-Ontarian, passed away at the age of 71. As a lawyer and deputy judge, he was known for his courage, honesty and expertise.
Mr. Landriault was also very involved in his community, particularly in French education. As a school board member for over 20 years, he served in many capacities, including as vice-president of the Ontario branch of the Association canadienne d'éducation de langue française.
In recognition of his work, he was awarded the Chantecler prize in education from the ACFO and the 125th anniversary medal of Canada.
Rodrigue Landriault was a great role model: a good father, an involved citizen, a generous companion, a reliable partner, a gentleman and, above all, a proud francophone. I would like to salute him and thank his wife, Marguerite, and their five children, Lucie, Anne-Marie, Yves, Diane and Jocelyne, who shared this outstanding man with us.
Thanks for everything, Rodrigue.

Mr. Speaker, the Liberal leader said Canada has become a laughing stock of the world. How dare he?
How dare he come back to Canada after being away for 34 years, after calling himself an American, after accusing his fellow Canadians of living in a fantasyland, after calling our flag a pale imitation of a beer label, and call Canada a laughing stock?
This is a country with the best managed economy in the G7, that is weathering the global economic storm far better than others, a country that is rebuilding its military, defending its Arctic sovereignty and asserting itself on the world stage, a country that has welcomed hundreds of thousands of new Canadians just last year. We are one of the most peaceful and prosperous nations the world has ever known.
The Liberal leader should know that Canada is no laughing stock. Canada is strong. Canada is proud. Canada--

Mr. Speaker, I recently attended the second annual social justice fair organized by the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board.
Students from as many as 22 Hamilton area schools are watching this live, right now, to see their concerns brought to Parliament.
Here is their message: "On any given night in Hamilton, 399 men, women and children stay in emergency shelters. There are at least 600 homeless or street-involved youth in Hamilton. Youth homelessness is a very serious issue, not only in Hamilton but in our country. There are things being done to help the homeless people in our city, but it is not enough to keep them off the streets. As a school board and as individuals, we find this inadequate. More things need to be done, but they are simply not happening. We need more transitional housing for youth and more mental health services. Fundraising is not enough because it only provides a band-aid solution. It is time for our government to take action".
I agree with that statement and I congratulate these Hamilton students for sending this important message to Parliament. Now let us see it acted upon.

Mr. Speaker, Le Devoir put it well in a headline this morning which reads: "No additional powers for Quebec". The Liberal leader told the newspaper he had no plans to take any action following the recognition of Quebec as a nation.
The Liberals have not changed. No one on this side of the House is at all surprised. The Leader of the Opposition embodies the worst centralist tradition of the Liberal Party. Although he tries to sweet-talk us, he too just wants to put us in our place. He told the Canadian Press as well that if he is elected, he has no plans to give Quebec additional powers.
Should Quebeckers be at all surprised to hear more double talk from the mouth of another Liberal leader? Pierre Elliott Trudeau promised change and then invoked the War Measures Act. Jean Chrétien promised clean government and then gave us the sponsorship scandal. Conservatives from Quebec have come to Ottawa specifically to put an end to this Liberal hypocrisy.
That was our promise and we got the job done.
