Lightweight yet protective from the road, the race-ready New Balance MRC1600 features minimal cushioning and a firm ride.
The New Balance RC1600 is a fast flat with an extra dose of style. Colorful, lightweight overlays wrap the upper for a secure fit, and the Revlite midsole is springy and protective. This shoe is light enough for speed work and racing, and has enough cushioning underfoot for a marathon.
Model Number:
Weight: 5.4 oz (size 9)
Stack Height: Heel (21mm), Forefoot (15mm)
Available Widths: D=Medium
How It Fits (based on width D)
Assembly: Imported
The MRC1600 is a minimum featured shoe designed for road racing. It is intended for marathon racing.
Comments: Feels great! Light, soft and responsive. Problem is that the traction in the the forefoot fell off after a few races and workouts. Does New Balace sell the little traction nubs I could glue on myself?
From: RJ, Boston, MA
Comments: Very well-built shoe, good grip and a "silent" outside that doesn't make much noise upon impact compared to other racing flats. The upper mesh seems solid and not as fragile as with Adizero Hagio as a comparison. I ordered half a size up compared to Hagio and fit is good, there's some room in front of the big toe but like Chas, NC is stating below, not much space over on the sides. Toe box is somewhat low and somewhat narrow but half a size up compared to Hagio solved it for me. The shoe is overall very comfortable, soft but offers some stability and surprisingly a lot of cushioning considering the low weight. I would not hesitate running a half marathon in these, for a full marathon maybe the forefoot is a bit too thin to appeal to me. Good looking, well-built, allround racing flat that I definitely would recommend!
From: Staffan, Stockholm, Sweden
Comments: I'm 6'2" 180 lb. supinator who got these yesterday. I have tried a host of lightweight trainer, marathon race shoes including Mizuno Ronin, Nike Lunaracer and Flyknit Racer, Adizero Hagio and Adios and Karhu Flow 3. They are all great shoes but for some reason one or more of their support features left me feeling that I was battling the shoe to get my stride to turn over. The 1600 has a narrow fitting but comfortable fitting upper out of the box. One big plus is the way the upper clings to the heel and Achilles. Very snug. The others have always required creative lacing at the top that resulted in excessive pressure on top of my foot. I ran 11 miles in the 1600 today with ten short intervals at 5k pace. The upper broke in quickly and loosened significantly by mile 5. The midsole is the best feature of the shoe. Firm and responsive but not harsh. Just the right amount of flex. No wave plate, fulcrum or sprint web to fight with. Just good, old-fashioned EVA leaving my feet free to work without constraints or "help". They reminded me of my old favorite, the Adizero RC with a slight bit more cushion. No issues whatsoever. This is a big winner with me. A great old school shoe that can take on anything.

Comments: I wanted to love this shoe. The new revlite cushioning is second to none, great protection in a flat of this weight. It feels to have a pronounced heel, I could definately tell it wasn't a zero drop shoe. The downside is it just didnt fit my foot, the laces started too distal on my foot and I got a lot of rub at the base of my fifth metatarsal. Tried a bunch of different lacing styles but I couldn't shake that pressure I felt, so I'm sending them back. I hope they work for others, because the cushioning is fantastic, the weight is just right, and outside of that lacing issue the upper is comfortable. I'm sticking with my Zoom Streak XC3/LT as my flat for now though.
From: David, Austin, TX
Comments: This is a solid racing flat. I was worried about the unusually (for New Balance) narrow forefoot, but the mesh is comfortable and doesn't squeeze me. If you are between 2 sizes, take the larger of the two. There will be some room in front of the big toe, but everything else will be Cinderella. I normally race in the Adidas Hagio or the Inov-8 Road-X 155--both great shoes. The MRC1600 is like a hybrid of the two. Versatile and durable as the Hagio, but also flexible and lighter than light like the Inov-8. The heel cushion feels like a little more than the advertised 6mm H/T drop, but the
Revlite is a nice, responsive midsole material. This will be my shoe for 15k to road marathon. However, they would work great for track days, road tempos, and shorter races too.
From: Chas, Cornelius, NC
Comments: An okay shoe, with some pretty firm cushioning. Unfortunately, the pretty thin forefoot doesn't always offer the most protection, especially on some rocky trails. However, I was a fan of the lower H/T drop, even if the last otherwise seems to be kinda narrow, which seemed to prevent adequate toe splay. Also, sole durability isn't the greatest. Nonetheless, a ~6.5 - 7 outta 10.
From: James, CA
Comments: I have some seriously narrow feet and long toes, so this won't be relevant to everyone, but I love this shoe. I'm a 2:48 marathoner doing 55-65 miles a week on average. After running several marathons in the Nike Lunaracer, I wanted something a little more traditional and firm. The Lunaracer just started feeling to pillowy as I transitioned to more minimalist footwear in my training. In my case this means mostly NB Minimus Roads 10s, and Kinvaras. I haven't raced in these yet, but I've done a few hard workouts, including 17 miles with up to 6k intervals at race pace, and they performed beautifully. Just enough toe room, just enough cushioning for the long haul, just enough heel drop(around 6mm supposedly), really overall, just enough is sometimes exactly what you need.
From: John, Chicago, IL
Comments: I got these shoes about 3 weeks ago to give myself a little more cushion for longer runs then my MR00's were providing. I was running more then 5 miles and getting soreness on my feet. Not arches, just simply the muscles in my feet. So I decided I would try these. The first few runs, they were a little tighter than I have been used to but once they stretched out they have been great. The only complaint I have is running down hills they seem to shift around on my feet a little bit. NB recommends wearing them tight to envelop the foot. I don't think it's a sizing issue necessarily but overall I love them almost as much as my Minimus Road zeros.
From: Christopher, Austin, TX

CEDAR CITY - Sarah Catherine "Kate" Douglas, 95, passed away Oct. 11, 2002 at Kolob Regional Care Center in Cedar City.
She was born April 30, 1907 in Huntington to Georgia Ann Lindsey and Haskel Johnson Majors. She married Clarence Howard and, after his passing, she married William E. Douglas. Their marriage was later solemnized in the Manti LDS Temple.
Kate spent most of her youth growing up on the old family farm southwest of town, where she enjoyed spending time with her mother, working hard and being pampered by her seven older brothers. She was especially close to her brother, Rock. She always enjoyed telling stories of their adventures together.
At the age of 14, her family moved to their home in town and Kate lived there until the last few years of her life, when her health required constant care. She loved her home, kept it neat and tidy and always had beautiful flowers growing in the yard.
She was a caring wife and a hard-working, devoted mother who endured many hardships in her early life. She loved making beautiful quilts and was a provider for her family. She also enjoyed being outdoors, camping, and hunting. She was an excellent marksman, a skill she attributed to the time she spent hunting rabbits with her brothers. She often entertained and created fond memories for her children and grandchildren by reciting poems she had memorized over the years. Even at the age of 95, she could recall the verses that they loved to hear. She kept her sharp memory, keen wit and sense of humor until her passing.
She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where she spent time teaching Primary and providing service to others. She had great faith in the healing power of priesthood blessings, which she requested often.
She is survived by five daughters, Lucy (Byron) Cook, Helper; Georgia (Mark) McDonald, Lander, Wyo.; Sally Thompson, Price; Margaret (Gary) Pfaffenberger, New Harmony; and Pauline (Paul) Roberts, Cedar City. She is also survived by 16 grandchildren, 32 great-grandchildren and 18 great-great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husbands, parents, seven brothers, one sister, an infant son and a great-grandson.
Funeral services will be Tuesday, Oct. 15, 11 a.m., at the 1st/5th LDS Ward Chapel in Huntington. Friends may call at the chapel one hour prior to services. Burial, Huntington Cemetery under the direction of Fausett Mortuary.
PRICE - Our loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Golda Smith Olsen Hansen, age 88, passed away peacefully at her home Oct. 8, 2002.

Lifelong resident of Carbon County and an active member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Golda was very active throughout her life. She loved to crochet and make many beautiful things for her friends and family. She also took great pride in her home and family. She was a wonderful cook and no one ever left grandma's home hungry.
Survived by seven children, Derl "Swede" (JoAnn) Olsen, East Carbon; Katy (Bill) Austin, Price; Darla (Harold) Hanna, Hotchkiss, Colo.; Lynn Foster, Wellington; Elaine (Royce) Allred, Cleveland; Terry (Leslie) Hansen, Spring Glen; daughter-in-law, Alice Olsen, Price; 22 grandchildren, 54 great-grandchildren, 22 great-great-grandchildren. Also her special companion, "Daisey" her dog. Preceded in death by parents; husbands; daughters, Gaylene and Bonnie Jean Olsen; son, Roland "Sonny" Olsen; grandson, David Olsen; brothers, Loren and Clarence; and sister, Nora Stifas. She will be dearly missed by her family and a community of friends.
Funeral service was Friday, Oct. 11, at Mitchell Funeral Home. Interment, Price City cemetery.
CLEVELAND - Harriet Edna Jensen, age 92, passed away Oct. 12, 2002 at her home.
She was born Sept. 13, 1910 in Cleveland to Edward and Maude Eden Jensen. Harriet married Frank E. Jensen in Cleveland.
She was a devoted member of the LDS Church.
Mom was a very loving mother and grandmother as well as an extremely charitable person who was a mother to the motherless.
Mom was a hard worker and had a marvelous sense of humor. She was an avid gardener and she loved traveling.
Harriet is survived by children, Marvin (Colleen); Kevin (Lois); Alan (Johannah); Kerwin; Jack (Lorraine); Verlynn (Clifford) Oviatt; all of Cleveland; and Delwin (Joyce), Highland; 31 grandchildren, 76 great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren; sisters, Leora (Vern) Leamaster, Huntington; Lindora Draper, Castle Dale; Beth (Walt) Henzie, Ivan; brothers, Ted (Elva) Elmo; Ray (Zona), Cleveland; and Glen (Karen), Elmo.

Fingerless Gloves and Surgeon's Cap
Here you can see the detail I little better.

By CRAIG ANDERSONEmery
Dear Editor,
Already, we are beginning to hear the echoes of promises for a greater visionary dedication and, much needed, economic growth in our county. The political arena reopened with the Republican and Democrat conventions recently and nominations were taken for candidates to fill the available position in the Emery County Commission.
Political aspirations can be a good thing if the individuals desires are in line with the benefits effecting the population they are representing. Personal gain, usually, is a dominate motivating factor in wanting to become a representative rather than communal accomplishment. Not because of lack of monitory compensation or notoriety, but more directly linked, unfortunately to level of competency and fortitude.
There is a general consensus among the masses that; "there is a need for a good, well planned and executed blue print for designing economic growth and development in this county." Certainly it takes a lot of money to start a new business. With a large sum of start-up cash a business would be able to; start, complete, hire employees and continue with a positive cash flow. This means investing millions compared to hundreds of thousands of dollars that is considered to be a fair amount for start-up assistance by some.
Small businesses are an essential part of a good local economy. Although statistics show that a great deal of small businesses fail in the first two years. Start-up funds have helped several individuals with their financial needs in procuring a new "small business." Large businesses are less prone to act on small incentives. Therefore our economy will not grow by leaps and bounds as one would hope.
Analyzing the reasons for a larger business not locating in this area it comes to mind that; (1) Work force is inadequate. Not enough labor ready people to man a large company such as box store. (2) Competition for wages set by high paying industry already established here(coal mines and power plant). (3) Distance to railhead for cost effective transportation. Other restrictions exist, not so easily detected which cause the failure of large industry participation.
Polls exist for information gathering. Polling the population of our "Great Nation" it was concluded, from the survey, that the people on a national level were most concerned about (1) the economy, and (2) the war in Iraq. These two issues have interchanged in ranking of importance a few times in the last year. On a local level the most important issue would be their relationship to the immediate economy (assumption). A valid survey would prove this theory.
As a major supplier of electrical power to parts of the Union, it is apparent that it has a direct impact on the area. There is a great demand on the infrastructure presently and there is no indication of reduction. Coal haul roads are deteriorating, fast. Municipal water and waste systems are adequate but rates, for use, are being increased to off-set increased costs rather than being compensated by impact fees as anticipated.
It is not clear if the compensation for industrial impact directly correlates to the reimbursement received. It is a "given;" the county receives a portion of the taxes levied against the power industry. These portions of revenue are reinvested in paying for debt services accrued by the Service District and others. Could there be a more liberal slice of the pie received locally? How does one make a fair assessment of the pay for damage received.
Creating a better economic growth pattern would serve the county well. By doing so it would generate more proceeds to compensate for the impact of major industries. May the force be with those entrusted to generate this livelihood for all of the local residents.

If you're looking for a fresh and convenient way to celebrate the holidays, it might be a good time to consider a getaway with the whole family. Choosing a holiday-friendly destination can add an extra element of fun to your holiday get-together, and allow everyone to relax and enjoy each other since nobody needs to host.
You only have so much time off, you can maximize the vacation time you get during the holidays and spend it with the ones you love. Doing something a little different and allowing everyone to have some time away can also be a great way to create new family traditions that can be carried on for years to come.
Vacation destinations like Terranea Resort on the Los Angeles oceanfront know the importance of family traditions, and if you book your trip through a location that welcomes groups celebrating the holidays, you can experience all the joy of the season without the hassles. With more than 100 holiday-focused events taking place from Thanksgiving to New Year's, it's easy for your family to find unique and fun ways to celebrate through Terranea Traditions.
If making your holiday family gathering a vacation sounds like an attractive option, here are a few more reasons to book your trip at a resort destination:
* Increased comfort. Rather than pulling out the couch for the extra guests, why not let everyone stay in luxury? If you choose a resort with a variety of lodging options, everyone can stay in the same place while each family can choose the type of accommodations that work best for them. At Terranea, guests have a multitude of options including golf villas, seaside casitas and hotel accommodations. Choosing a common area to celebrate family festivities can also ease the burden of cleaning up that usually falls on the host.
* Opportunities to relax. You've worked hard all year. Do you think you should get a break once the holidays roll around? At Terranea, you can hit the links for a family golf outing, head to the spa for massages, spend some time at the pool or head out for a relaxing hike.
* Something for the kids. Children love the holidays, so what better way to raise the excitement level than finding a resort with holiday-themed activities? At Terranea, kids can create gifts at the daily "Little Elf's Workshop," listen to holiday stories by the fire, and even receive a tuck-in from one of Santa's elves. And kids and adults can also benefit from New Year's parties for every age group, making it a great place for families to ring in 2013.
* Enjoy a family meal out. One of the best things about choosing a resort with a number of dining options is the alternative to have your holiday meal cooked by the pros. You can have your meal right where you stay without the stress of having to prepare anything.
By choosing the perfect destination for your holiday family gathering, you can enjoy holiday fun with your family along with the perks that come along with being on vacation. To find out more about what Terranea has to offer during the holidays, visit www.terranea.com.


text: Hmm that was an awesome way to end the chapter! I love Oda. Shishishi. I doubt that prime Garp was actually using all his power in that punch against Chinjao. Luffy was using his full power with Thor but it was similar to a move he used to defeat Shiki. Don't know where he got the electricity from though this time. Anywho, I think Luffy is powerful, but he lacks the ability to strategize and use his moves appropriately. His opponents are not going to charge at him like Chinjao, they will dodge and counter.

Slow, sultry summertime is perfect for binge-watching classic (and current) TV hits. USA TODAY staffers offer some familiar and unexpected suggestions for catch-up viewing.
Hill Street Blues
Now: Amazon, Hulu Plus, DVD
Stars: Daniel J. Travanti, Veronica Hamel, Michael Conrad, Michael Warren, Charles Haid, Bruce Weitz
Why it's binge-worthy: This almost unimaginably influential classic from producer Steven Bochco cut through TV's Dukes of Hazzard fantasy landscape like a breath of hot urban air. With its huge, diverse ensemble, its interweaving stories and its grasp of life as it was being lived in rough big-city neighborhoods, Hill Street brought a new pace, realism, relevance, maturity and cinematic style to television. If this is the Golden Age of TV drama, Hill Street is its founding father — and it's still more honest about race than most of its children.
Peak moments: Start with the pilot, of course, with its incredibly shocking ending. And don't miss the third season's Emmy-winning opener (the first TV script from NYPD Blue and Deadwood's David Milch), a complex outing about the rape and murder of a nun by two black men that climaxes with Joyce and Frank's fair, famous debate about justice and the law, or the equally famous episode that season in which an angry Ray Calletano uses an awards banquet to confront the police department's anti-Hispanic bias.
What to skip:Bochco was fired at the end of the fifth season, so watch just enough of the sixth to see Dennis Franz join as Lt. Norman Buntz and then move on. — Robert Bianco
Breaking Bad
AMC, 2008-13; final season premieres Aug. 11.
Now: Netflix, , iTunes, Amazon, AMC on Demand, DVD
Stars: Bryan Cranston, Aaron Paul, Anna Gunn, Dean Norris
Why it's binge-worthy: A show about the drug trade should lead to lost weekends. But the performance of its two leads will keep you hitting the play button like it's a crack pipe. Five years ago, the notion of the goofball dad from Malcolm in the Middle as a manipulative drug lord would have been laughable. But Cranston sold it — as evidenced by his three consecutive Emmys. You can't help but admire his work, even as you begin to dislike Walter White for his increasingly uncontrollable ego and the way he treats his family. You'll find yourself rooting instead for meth-cooking apprentice Jesse Pinkman, as Aaron Paul slowly transforms the character from mere comic relief to a man with a conscience and the confidence to finally leave the drug world behind. You just hope it will let him out alive.
Peak moments: In Season 2, Walter and Jesse come perilously close to getting caught red-handed in their rolling meth lab by Walt's brother-in-law Hank, a DEA agent. Season 3 features a pulse-pounding parking lot shootout between Hank and two cartel gunmen as well as a violent confrontation between him and Jesse. From there, the tension is ratcheted ever higher with Walter matching wits against new boss Gustavo Fring (Giancarlo Esposito) and his fixer Mike (Jonathan Banks) at work and estranged wife Skyler (Gunn) at home through the end of Season 4.
What to skip: Subplots involving Hank's kleptomaniac wife Marie (Betsy Brandt), and Skyler's affair with her boss. — Jayme Deerwester
All in the Family
Now: Hulu (seasons 1 and 2), DVD, Antenna TV, syndication
Stars: Carroll O'Connor, Jean Stapleton, Rob Reiner, Sally Struthers
Why it's binge-worthy: The working-class Queens home of Archie and Edith Bunker hardly seems like a revolutionary place, but producer Norman Lear broke the timid rules of television by injecting timely social issues, such as racial prejudice, sexism and Vietnam -- and the jarring sound of a toilet flush -- into the family sitcom. The series thrived, earning 22 Emmys, and was TV's top show for five seasons. Family made it easier for other programmers to address difficult topics and spawned hit spinoffs Maude, The Jeffersons and Good Times.
Peak moments: Family hit the ground running, shocking and amusing the public as it addressed the off-limits topic of sex in its opening episode and touched on miscarriage, homophobia and racial prejudice in its first season. A classic moment came in Season 2, when Sammy Davis Jr., playing himself, shocked bigoted Archie (O'Connor) with a kiss on the cheek.
What to skip: Archie Bunker's Place, a 1979 successor that moved the focus from the Bunkers' home to a nearby tavern. The show's familial bonds faded. It's tough to follow a classic. — Bill Keveney
Burke's Law
Now: DVD
Stars: Gene Barry, Gary Conway
Why it's binge-worthy: The first and best of Aaron Spelling's all-star anthologies (think Love Boat or Fantasy Island), this weekly murder mystery is an electronic stroll through a '60s Hollywood reunion. The near-endless list of familiar faces includes Gloria Swanson, Dick Clark, William Shatner, Mickey Rooney, Buster Keaton, Telly Savalas, Don Rickles and my personal favorite, Betty Hutton. You'll never find anything else like it.
Peak moments: Every episode in the first season, the only one currently available, offers a vastly entertaining look at a Hollywood that no longer exists, which includes a money-saving production built around a few established sets that were redressed each week. Binge on just a few episodes, and you'll begin to recognize them. For a Burke's drinking game, hoist one every time you spot an oft-used Chinese screen, or the curved staircase that graces almost every mansion's entrance hall.
What to skip: In a failed effort to cash in on the TV spy craze, ABC removed Captain Burke from the police department in the third season and turned the show into Amos Burke – Secret Agent. And ABC revived the series in 1994-95. Even if you could find those episodes, don't. — Robert Bianco
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Now: Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, DVD, Syfy, Chiller
Stars: Sarah Michelle Gellar, David Boreanaz, Alyson Hannigan
Why it's binge-worthy: Even though Buffy aired on smaller networks, creator Joss Whedon created a cult classic that brought horror, sci-fi and genre material to the masses. Starring Gellar as the title "chosen one," Buffy told one girl's coming-of-age story amid a scary real world — which, in her case, meant demons, the undead, werewolves and a high school on top of a Hellmouth. The series introduced a stake-swinging, witty-bantering superheroine and her Scooby gang of quick-witted outsider friends and loyal "Watcher" Giles (Anthony Stewart Head).
Peak moments: The vampire Angel (Boreanaz) losing his soul after a night of intimacy with Buffy (Gellar) in Season 2 kicked off an outstanding string of episodes, while the Emmy-winning hour "Hush" — mostly devoid of dialogue — and the musical "Once More, with Feeling" showed Whedon at his most creative.
What to skip. The beginning of the seventh and final season was the most convoluted part of the series as it featured a slew of girls cropping up as potential Slayers in case Buffy dies for good, which added an excess of personalities to the tight ensemble cast the show had for much of its run. However, Buffy got its groove back for the good guys' climactic battle against the hellish forces of Nathan Fillion's evil preacher Caleb. — Brian Truitt
China Beach
Now: DVD
Stars: Dana Delany, Marg Helgenberger, Robert Picardo, Michael Boatman
Why it's binge-worthy: Children of the '80s will remember this drama with the cool music their parents loved and hot-looking women who came of age amid the horrors of the Vietnam War. In addition to the well-crafted story lines in the show, the sounds of the era recalled good times (and bad). And it's a chance to see where Body of Proof's Delany and CSI's Helgenberger earned their stripes.
Peak moments: The pilot introduced nurse Colleen McMurphy (Delany), supposedly spending her last week in Vietnam. Episodes in later seasons featured real veterans relating their experiences in Vietnam, intercut with scenes from previous episodes. In the finale, McMurphy attends a China Beach reunion in Ohio, recalls her last day in Vietnam and travels to Washington, D.C., where the characters are reunited.
What to skip: Season 4 made for a jarring shift as the show jumped 20 years later. It was too much of a leap. Still, watch the two-part finale for a sense of closure. — Lorena Blas
The Larry Sanders Show
Now: DVD, Amazon, iTunes, VH1 Classic
Stars: Garry Shandling, Jeffrey Tambor, Rip Torn, Janeane Garofalo, Wallace Langham
Why it's binge-worthy: Sanders, a satire about a late-night talk-show host and his staff, was the first to successfully tap into the vain, back-stabbing, egomaniacal world of showbiz, sparked by Shandling's role as a frequent guest host for Johnny Carson. Dozens of celebrities signed on for self-parodying sendups, fawning on camera while sniping behind the scenes. Though overshadowed by Frasier at the Emmys and Seinfeld as a cultural touchstone, Sanders was among HBO's first original-series hits and influenced future shows such as Curb Your Enthusiasm and 30 Rock.
Peak moments: The show's sixth and final season, when Larry calls it quits, guest host Jon Stewart prepares to take over the show, and Sanders drops his "no flipping" advice to viewers in Flip, a celebrity-filled, Emmy-winning finale. And virtually any episode focused on insecure sidekick Hank ("Hey, now") Kingsley (Tambor).
What to skip: The show had its lesser moments, but each season offered a blend of vitriol and pathos that inside-Hollywood series rarely mastered. — Gary Levin
My So-Called Life
Now: Amazon, Hulu, DVD
Stars: Claire Danes, Jared Leto, Tom Irwin, Bess Armstrong, Wilson Cruz, A.J. Langer, Devon Gummersall, Lisa Wilhoit
Why it's binge-worthy: The series can be dated — from the mismatched, flannel-crazy fashion to the Sonic Youth and Buffalo Toms music —but Winnie Holzman's writing is undeniably timeless. Partnering strong female characters with controversial subjects such as teen drug use and school violence, it's no wonder that Lena Dunham calls this coming-of-age drama an inspiration for HBO's Girls. Realistic, often gut-wrenching insight comes from the internal dialogue of 15-year-old Angela Chase (Danes) or a tender conversation between her parents as they bemoan their increasingly distant daughter.
Peak moments: Life has a habit of letting literature and theater parallel real life, forcing characters to make realizations about themselves. While such moments might induce Liz Lemon-worthy eyerolls (Jordan's Shakespearean revelation that he loves Angela), they can also break your heart (Rayanne's teary Our Town rehearsal in the fittingly named "Betrayal" episode). Also, any chance we get to see Danes' infamous cry face is an episode highlight.
What to skip: The series was canceled after just one season, so why not give all 19 episodes a chance? If you must skip one, then make it Halloween. Although Jordan and Rickie bond, and we're given insight into Angela's younger sister, Danielle, the main story finds Angela talking to the '60s-greaser ghost of a student who died in the school gym. Even for a character that lives inside her head, it felt out of place. — Patrick Ryan

By COREY BLUEMELStaff writer
Emery County Attorney David Blackwell was at the Emery County Commission meeting to explain the reauthorization of the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self Determination Act of 2000. This reauthorization will affect the way this money is distributed. The county has several options to choose from.
Blackwell said his concern is how this decision will affect the PILT funds the county also receives. The first option to receive payment will help the county while the second option will help the school district. In the second option, the county must decide on a percentage basis where the funds will be allocated.
"There is a new law being worked on that will help with the second option to designate 50 percent of the funds to the special service district," said Blackwell. "If this law is passed, it would not affect the PILT money."
Emery County School Superintendent Kirk Sitterud was asked about the district's feelings on this matter. "These are tough economic times for the school district. The decision you make today could mean a difference between $13,000 and $180,000 for the district. We support option number two which is approval of the full funding as it will help the schools," said Sitterud.
After some discussion and questions, the county commission decided to approve option two with the caveat that a regional advisory council is established to oversee the funds. This RAC will be comprised of 15 members.
Commissioner Gary Kofford informed the commission of the decision to replace the 55 ton chiller at the county building. "We have been operating for the past two years on only one of the units. The other has failed. We need to make a request for proposal with the specifications of what needs to be done to replace the entire unit. For the past two years, if the remaining unit had failed, this building who have been without air circulation. The RFP should contain both the electrical and mechanical engineering for the project," said Kofford. The commission approved the RFP.
Several change orders were approved for the aquatic center. They were concerning the elimination of a railing, the changing of a portion of the landscaping to concrete, the purchase of a hose, and the application of a floor sealer. These change orders were discussed and approved.
In personnel matters, Jay Fausett was approved to be hired at the landfill as a solid waste technician. Davi Bosshardt was approved to be hired as a part time lifeguard, Mary Huntington was appointed to represent Emery County's voting at the UCIP annual meeting, and it was approved to begin the recruitment process to hire a dispatcher for the Sheriff's Office.
Attorney Blackwell introduced a matter in which the commission must decide whether to participate in litigation in the telecom sales tax dispute between the Utah Association of Counties and the Utah Tax Commission. He stated other counties involved have decided to participate. If Emery County decides to participate, the benefit would not be great, but the decision to support the litigation would show solidarity between the counties. The commission approved to support the litigation.

Almost as soon as the hustle and bustle arrives, it moves on to the next town.
The work involved with creating the temporary village of stages, booths and carnival rides is staggering. Structures tower over downtown Parker, making for an odd, albeit short-lived, skyline. Joyful noises and a collective of wonderful smells pour from Mainstreet and O'Brien Park.
The time and effort involved in making sure everything goes according to plan is no easy feat either. Events, Etc., an event planning firm hired by the Parker Chamber of Commerce, made a few minor tweaks to the configuration that helped foot traffic flow more smoothly. Delightful weather also was part of the recipe for success in 2013.
Attendance at this year's Parker Days Festival closely matched numbers from 2012. Dan Rodriguez, president of the Parker chamber, said 120,000-140,000 people attended the three-day festival and sales figures closely matched those seen in 2012.
Organizers saw a "substantial increase" in traffic on Friday after scheduling the headlining music act then instead of Saturday, but Saturday remained the busiest day, Rodriguez said. Sunday attendance was down roughly 10-20 percent, partly because of light early afternoon rain showers and the fact that it was Father's Day.
More carnival rides, an improved sound system, and a change to the VIP tent were the result of notes taken by event officials last year.
"The changes made things more comfortable," Rodriguez said. "We got great responses from people who attended with the entertainment choices, the buskers in downtown, pretty much everything."
The festival generates $75,000-$100,000 for the Parker Chamber of Commerce, which uses the proceeds on member programs throughout the year. It also generated an estimated $2.5 million economic impact for the surrounding businesses.
Space has become tighter because of increased development, but Rodriguez said the festival could extend east in the downtown district. When the vacant land is developed, the chamber might have to have discussions about moving the festival, although Rodriguez said those are at least two years out.

Huntington complex has become in the past years a hazardous playing surface. Due to lack of proper maintenance, the field has become a danger to the players that use it.
Hazards include large dirt patches, dry dead grass and a hard rocky playing surface. Players consistently complain of open wounds from sliding on dirt and rocks and twisted ankles from the outfield. These conditions are particularly hazardous to the hundreds of players that use the fields every year.
Why is the field in such bad shape? Poor and inconsistent maintenance. When was the field re-sodded, grass replanted or dirt added to the infields? I don't know, but I do know that they continue to get worse year after year. The Emery County Recreation is responsible for the complex and needs to step up its regular maintenance of the complex to make it safe.
Admittedly maintenance on the fields is not easy. It is used three-four nights a week during the season, giving little time for a major facelift. The fields are not being used during the off season.
Our fees were raised this year but I don't see any improvements being made.
Re-sodding fields and adding dirt is expensive. But shouldn't the safety of the players be a priority.

Two adventurous cross country aviators, Wendy Lessig and Victoria Bond, landed their Piper Cub airplanes at the Huntington Airport on Sept. 8. The women were flying to Salt Lake City and Tooele where they reside. The rain clouds were so thick over the mountains they did not dare an attempt to fly over those mountains Sunday.
Bond and Lessig were returning from Marble, Colo. where they had been camping for the weekend enjoying the scenery and learning about that portion of Colorado along with several other pilots. They had been attending the Back Country Pilots Association Fly-In event at Marble, Colo. Marble, Colo. has a small grass airstrip at an elevation of about 8,000 ft. in a beautiful mountain valley. Marble, Colo. is notorious for making the best marble outside of Italy. Marble from Marble, Colo. was used in the tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
There were 32 airplanes at the Marble Colorado event. The pilots and passengers explored the surrounding area and visited with local people to learn some of the history. Part of their adventure was the hike to a waterfall in the mountains. On one of the evenings while in Marble, Colo. the group enjoyed a barbecue and fun night.
Bond has been flying for 13 years and owns her Piper Super Cub airplane. She trained to become a pilot at Sky Park Bountiful near Bountiful. Her first flying lessons took place in a Cessna 152, a small plane with a nose wheel. When Bond got her license she purchased her own airplane and decided she wanted to participate in Back Country Flying. Because as she said, "Back Country Flying is full of adventure, excitement and you meet new people. You get to do wonderful things. You meet local people in small towns. When you land you usually can go fly fish or go hiking." Bond said she has learned how to fly fish because many of the airstrips are near rivers and streams where cars cannot get. Those streams are filled with hungry fish.
Wendy Lessig has flown since 1985. She started flying in California and onto Texas before coming to Utah. Her airplane is a Piper Super Cub Cruiser painted white with a red stripe down the middle. She bought her plane in 2005 and she flies it all over the country. She goes camping, fishing and hiking. She has flown to 25 states. Her airplane has taken her as far as North Carolina, Tennessee, Illinois, Montana, Idaho and Oregon to name a few states visited. She has flown more than 25,000 miles in her Cub. Lessig's plane has large over-sized tires for landing on grass or dirt airstrips with a smaller tail wheel, which leaves the propeller high so it won't pick up rocks on landing and take off. The plane is designed for the backcountry flying. Lessig's plane is more powerful than Bond's and it is wider which allows for more carrying capacity.
Bond's Piper Super Cub is painted red over white with a maroon stripe in the middle. Victoria's plane is smaller with a 150-horse power engine and weighs 1,100 pounds.
Both women said they enjoy flying the Piper Super Cubs because the planes can fly low and slow while the pilot enjoys the scenery from above. The planes can land many places where there is only a strip of bare level ground without obstructions. They related stories about several adventures and exciting places where they have flown to and camped.
The pair first met at the Johnson Creek Idaho Fly-In. Wendy thinks that she and Victoria are the only two women flying Super Cub type airplanes in the state of Utah.
Victoria and Wendy were happy to enjoy the Huntington Airport lounge and especially the shower after spending days camping out in a tent and sleeping bag. They also used the Huntington airport courtesy car to go to a local restaurant for meals.
Flying together, as they do, provides a bit of security in the case of plane trouble. Both women perform airplane maintenance and are capable of repairing several things on their planes in an emergency.
Wendy Lessig works at the Tooele Army Depot, where the government destroys chemical weapons. Victoria's husband is a commercial jet pilot and flies private jets for various companies.
When asked about the cost flying a plane these days. Wendy said, "You can't put a price upon something that you have a passion for."
Victoria said, "I love flying because of the adventure. There are so many beautiful things that you can see. You can work really hard during the week and then fly over beautiful Utah and relax in some of the great outdoor places that Utah and the west is famous for."
Monday at daybreak Wendy and Victoria flew from Huntington up over the mountains to Salt Lake after spending the night sleeping on the couches in the Huntington Airport Lounge.
Emery County will be hosting the Back Country Flyers at the Huntington Airport Sept. 27-29. There will also be an Antique Car Show, sponsored by Wards 4X4, at the airport during this event on Saturday at 1 p.m.. Wendy Lessig has been to the Fly In at Huntington in the past. They both expect to be back for this years Fly In at Huntington Airport.

Would 6 units of band class qualify me for a free JavaOne 2009 pass?
By Brad Wetmore on Apr 17, 2009
The worst thing about graduating and getting a job in the real world is that all the cool benefits dried up. Student rates on travel, movie passes, food...etc.
I just noticed an offer on the J1 web site that appears to allow students (6 units or more) to get a free, FULL JavaOne 2009 conference pass. Even as a Sun employee, I only get a limited pass. Which got me thinking: I'm currently taking a 1 unit music performance class at a local community college. If I sign up for 5 more of these classes, would that qualify?
Hm...I should check with my manager...
