France 1856 – 1910
Madame Hector France (Portrait of Madame H. F.)
[Portrait de Madame H. F.] 1891

Musée d'Orsay, Paris , Purchase 1955

The subject of this imposing portrait, Irma Clare (1849–1933), was married to Hector France, the French author best-known for the Orientalist tales Musk, hashish and blood 1886. The painting was shown in 1891 at the Salon de la Société des Artistes Indépendants in Paris, and announced the first major work of Cross' newly adopted Neo-Impressionist style. Two years later, on 18 May 1893, the painter married his sitter and later in the year they moved to St-Clair, near St-Tropez, in the south of France.
Painted nearly life-size, Irma is shown against an elaborately nuanced backdrop. This is the conventional form for a society portrait, the sitter shown full-length, usually in fashionable dress, portrayed in surroundings which make reference to her interests or family background (see portraits 2, 3 and 4). The monumentality of Irma's figure and the elegant fabrics of her gown are emphasised by the steeply tilted floor, and the impression of depth introduced by the receding tiles. The mottled pink and white rhododendrons at lower left interrupt the picture plane, giving the scene a Japanese inflection, adding a gloriously decorative quality to this harmony of yellows, blues and pinks. Palms, a frieze of fans on the balustrade, and the geometric patterns on the tiled floor add to the exotic mood. Viewed in profile, with a long train, Irma appears to 'float chicly off-centre in an immaterial world approached from below'.1 Her hair sparkles and evaporates into the night air around her. The lamps, diffused light and overlay of shadows also contribute to the ambience and luxury of the scene. Perhaps Irma has adjourned to an external terrace or balcony, escaping the glittering soiree which is the source of light behind the woven bamboo chair at left. The whole painting is inflected with a grainy, atmospheric glow. Cross' highly regular technique—a 'screen' of small, regular dots over a densely painted ground—and impeccably aligned marks give the work a certain mechanical facture, reminiscent of early colour printing.
Cross and Irma seem to be an instance of opposites attracting: he serious and secretive; she superficial and pleasure-loving. Maria, the wife of the painter van Rysselberghe (the couples were neighbours at St-Clair) judged Irma petty, base of nature and an idle gourmand.2 Other artist-friends, such as Angrand, on the other hand, found her fine company, enjoying the warm welcome at St-Clair, and praising her devotion to her husband in his later years.3 At St-Clair Cross turned to pure landscape, using a vivid palette of saturated colours, but Irma continued to model for him, appearing as one of the figures in Evening air 1893–94.4 In a later Portrait of Madame Cross c. 19015 we see a slightly older Irma, in a large hat and floral gown, seated in the garden, but easily recognisable by her pursed lips and somewhat bulbous nose.

The Reebok 11K KFS hockey gloves are the premier gloves from Reebok in the KFS line. Reebok has used the Kinetic Fit System to offer excellent mobility in a contour fitting glove. Reebok has achieved this through using such features as the interior fit glove with the seamless flexible cuff with no binding.
The 11K glove has taken up where the 10K glove left off. The 11K shares the same overall design as the 10K glove, although the 11K gloves offers some improved materials such as the foams in the cuff to offer the same great mobility with additional protection.
The 11K glove also features the seamless flex cuff. This feature really sets the 11K glove apart from the rest of the gloves on the market. Reebok has used what they are calling an interior fit glove. This is the upper cuff portion that is separate from the cuff roll and it seamlessly attaches to the palm. This design style allows optimal hand movement while the upper cuff stays along the lower forearm to provide exceptional flexibility, while still offering high-end protection you would expect from a glove at this level. This gives the glove a great feel, almost resembling characteristics of a lacrosse glove.

Comments: I have a meaty hand and not very long finger...... I have multiple hockey gloves, but only this one fits my hand just like specially tailored for me. Very comfortable. I like the design of the palm and it does make a different feeling when comparing to Easton Stealth RS2 and Stealth 55S. Is has about the same level of performance and comfortable as Sher-wood N12 gloves give me, but the 11K fits my hands even better. I used it for my Adult Hockey League game after I got it and we just won the first Championship as individual team on yesterday, 6/16/2013~~~~~
From: Jen-Yen, VA
Comments: These are really nice gloves. They felt comfortable, right out of the box. They are made of kind of a different material. Not nylon, but not leather. They are very very protective, too. I have used these for a month, and they are pretty much holding up, but I am kind of worried about that palms. They are already getting a little worn out. But you should buy these! Maybe not the BEST glove out there, but for sure top 5.
From: ??
Comments: Great glove, comfortable with good movability. Good glove for a forward.
From: Fraser
Comments: Great Gloves; I took a few slashes on the hand and didn't feel anything. They are a little bulky but have great protection and do no restrict movement at all.

NEWPORT - The Rhode Island-based nonprofit Clean the Bay has a new name – Clean Bays, according to a press release from the organization.
The group removes marine debris from shores and waterways of Narragansett Bay and southern New England and works to be a model for debris clean-up methodologies, engineering and sustainability.
"Our mission isn't just to clean up Narragansett Bay. It's about our entire interconnected ecosystem," said Clean Bays Executive Director Kent Dresser.
Founded in 2005, the group has completed projects such as removing more than 30 tons of large marine debris from the Pawcatuck River, Little Narragansett Bay, Stonington Harbor and Mystic River last summer. Previous cleanup projects have been in Narragansett Bay.

Virgin Blue Voted Best National And Best Regional Airline Two Years Running At AFTA Awards16/07/2007
Virgin Blue has again taken out two top airline awards at the 2007 AFTA (Australian Federation of Travel Agents) National Travel Industry Awards for Excellence after winning the very same titles in 2006.
The glittering annual event, held in Sydney over the weekend and attended by over 860 industry professionals, is Australia's pre-eminent industry awards ceremony.
The Awards recognise the leading companies from a range of travel sectors including airlines, hotels, travel agents, car rental companies and wholesalers.
A record number of nominees were received for this year's Awards, with the finalists nominated by travel agents who then vote for their favourite out of the shortlist based on personal experience in their dealings with the company from both their own and their client's (the traveller's) perspective.
The award criteria is based on a combination of factors including customer service, product and innovation.
Virgin Blue's General Manager, Sales, Mathias Friess, accepted both awards on behalf of the Virgin Blue team.
Virgin Blue Chief Executive, Brett Godfrey, said, "To be nominated and voted best regional and best national airline by our industry peers two years in a row is an absolute honour.
"While we have continued to evolve our product to better meet the immediate and future needs of our Guests, our commitment to low fares and exceptional customer service remains consistent and we value the strong relationships we have with travel agencies and individual agents, who play an integral role in stimulating tourism," he finished.
Multi award winning airline Virgin Blue and international carriers Pacific Blue and Polynesian Blue currently operate a fleet of 53 modern Boeing 737 aircraft flying to 22 Australian and eight international destinations including New Zealand, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Vanuatu and the Cook Islands. Virgin Blue was the first airline in the world to launch a Government certified carbon offset program, where Guests can offset the carbon emissions from their flights for as little as $1.

CNG: Everyday Suitability, Environmental Compatibility, Economical
- Zafira ecoFLEX Turbo first natural gas production van with turbocharging
- Zafira 1.6 CNG and Combo 1.6 CNG need only 5.0/4.9 kg natural gas per 100 km
- Full versatility and cargo capacity retained with underfloor gas tank arrangement
Rüsselsheim. The monovalentplus concept Opel has used in its natural gas-powered vehicles (CNG = Compressed Natural Gas) since 2002 is unique on the market. Among its many advantages and benefits, this system boasts unrivalled operating costs, produces up to 80 percent lower emissions and 20 percent less CO2 than a comparable gasoline engine. It enables an operating range of up to 400 kilometers in natural gas mode and guarantees unrestricted passenger and luggage compartment use. Opel CNG vehicles feature a gasoline reserve tank that increases operating range by around 150 kilometers, ensuring full everyday suitability. The 1.6-liter natural gas engine is designed to run on natural gas, biogas, or any mixture of the two.
Opel Zafira ecoFLEX Turbo: Performance meets economics
For the first time, Opel has combined economical, low-emission Compressed Natural Gas propulsion with powerful turbocharger technology in the Zafira 1.6 CNG ecoFLEX Turbo. It is now available, starting at 25,430 euros, and allows Opel to ring in a new era of CNG with impressive performance. The new Zafira's rated output of 150 hp and maximum torque of 210 Nm between 2 300 and 5 000 rpm ensure plenty of power in all situations. The high torque not only allows a more powerful drive, it also keeps energy consumption low in everyday use.
The seven-seater accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 11.5 seconds and has a top speed of 200 km/h. In the MVEG cycle, it consumes just 5.1 kg of natural gas per 100 km. This corresponds to a CO2 emission figure of just 139 g/km – a new best-in-class in this vehicle and power category. Expressed in terms of the driver and all six passengers, this translates into just under 20 grams per seat and kilometer when the Zafira is fully loaded.
Opel Zafira 1.6 CNG ecoFLEX: Maximum versatility thanks to patented Flex7 system
Just like the Turbo, the new-edition Zafira 1.6 CNG ecoFLEX, which was launched in February 2008, also features the unique Flex7 seating system, which enables it to be transformed quickly from a seven to a two-seater without cumbersome seat removal. Thanks to the clever underfloor arrangement of the four natural gas tanks around the rear axle, the Zafira's versatility and spaciousness remain unaltered. In its standard seating arrangement, the natural gas Zafira offers 645 liters of luggage compartment space – the largest of all seven-seat compact vans. The Zafira 1.6 CNG's maximum load capacity is 1820 liters.
The Zafira 1.6 CNG ecoFLEX's particular highlight is its outstanding efficiency. Average consumption of around 5.0 kg of natural gas per 100 kilometers, with an average H-gas price of 0.97 euros per kilogram (early 2009), translates into a fuel cost saving of around 30 percent compared to diesel, and over 50 percent compared to gasoline. Tax and insurance ratings are at the same level as those of a comparable gasoline variant. The
69 kW/94 hp natural gas van also has clear advantages in terms of environmental compatibility. By virtue of its propulsion unit, it produces 80 percent less nitrogen oxide than a diesel, and almost 20 percent less CO2 than a gasoline model (nearly 10 percent less CO2 than diesel). And the exhaust gases contain almost no soot particles.
High-level safety
The Zafira CNG is also ideally equipped when it comes to safety: the high-strength steel gas tanks and stainless steel gas pipes are safely located outside the impact zone. This was already confirmed by ADAC in a crash test conducted with the first Zafira CNG: "The gas tanks stored in a metal compartment remained in their original position during both frontal and side collisions, despite body deformation. They are therefore optimally protected against damage. The entire gas system stayed tightly sealed, also a result of the safety valves that automatically close on the tanks," said the automobile club experts, summing up the test results. In addition, the results clearly showed that the risk of fire with natural gas vehicles is no higher than normal. This is also due to the fact that natural gas is much less flammable than gasoline or diesel, and in the highly unlikely event of a leak, it dissipates immediately. This means CNG vehicles can be parked in any underground garage. Like all Zafiras, the 1.6 CNG ecoFLEX also features the extensive and extremely effective SAFETEC safety system that earned the new Zafira the maximum rating of five stars for passenger protection in the Euro NCAP crash tests (European New Car Assessment Programme).
Unrestricted everyday suitability
The natural gas Zafira's excellent efficiency and unrestricted everyday suitability is ensured by the innovative monovalentplus concept. The 1.6-liter CNG engine, which has an increased compression ratio for high efficiency, is designed to run on natural gas, biogas, or any mixture of the two. The unit has special pistons, valves and valve-seat inserts, as well as separate injection banks for natural gas and gasoline. In addition, the engine management system was optimized for natural gas operation. A 14‑liter gasoline reserve tank ensures continued mobility on routes without a natural gas filling station. Thanks to economical consumption and the four natural gas tanks' capacity of 21 kilograms, the Zafira CNG has an operating range of around 530 kilometers.
Opel Combo 1.6 CNG ecoFLEX: Cargo volume up to 3200 liters
Available since June 2005, the Opel Combo 1.6 CNG is a spacious, multi-functional natural gas vehicle. With an average consumption of 4.9 kg of natural gas per 100 kilometers, the 69 kW/94 hp high-roof van is very economical and environmentally friendly. Accordingly, Opel awarded the car the ecoFLEX badge, which it gives to only the most economical and low emission variants. Tax and insurance ratings are at the same level as those of the gasoline unit. The Combo CNG's top speed is 165 km/h and acceleration from zero to 100 km/h takes 15 seconds.
Thanks to the clever underfloor arrangement of the three gas tanks around the Combo's space-saving rear axle, the alternative propulsion requires no compromises in terms of practicality. Just like its conventionally powered counterparts, the compact Combo CNG offers up to 3050 liters cargo volume in its five-seat Combo, Edition, Arizona and Sport variants, while the panel van even offers a maximum 3200 liters. The tanks hold
17.5 kilograms or 108 liters of natural gas. Combined with a 14-liter gasoline reserve tank, this enables an operating range of over 500 kilometers. The Combo CNG features the same high safety standards as the gasoline entry-level version. The tanks that hold the natural gas compressed to 200 bar are tested before installation at a pressure of 300 bar. The high-strength steel tanks are protected by underbody shields and, together with the stainless steel gas pipes, are located outside the impact zone.

Huntington Land Use Administrator Gary Arrington opened the presentation concerning the business property located at 54 West Center in Huntington with a brief history of the property. He said in 2003, a person bought the property and opened a manufacturing/service type business. Included in the business license for this business were storage units.
Due to the noise and nuisance ordinance violations, this business was closed down in Huntington and moved to Sanpete County. Many of the area residents had complained about loud, construction noises at all hours of the day and night. These complaints brought to light the number of nuisance ordinance violations by this business.
In 2006, Darrin Hurdsman purchased the property and received a renewed business license to operate the site as a storage area at which storage units would be constructed and cars, along with RVs and other such items would be stored by private individuals.
"This should not have been done," said Arrington. He went on to explain that this move should have had city council approval, but that was not done and Hurdsman has a valid business license to operate the storage facility. At this meeting, Hurdsman is requesting a renewal for that license.
Arrington went on to say, "It is zoned for this legitimate business. Darrin has said there will be indoor/outdoor storage at this location and that he may also store state impounded vehicles. The only conditional use noted for this property is the construction of a sight obscured six foot fence and Darrin has assured me it will be in place by June 30. This type of work cannot be done now due to weather conditions. He has also assured us that he will go above and beyond the requirements by landscaping the property."
Arrington stated he has heard some concerns from residents about the possibility of mechanic work being done on this site. "They cannot do that type of work here. His business license is for storage use only," concluded Arrington.
Cato Wagner, of Huntington's land use authority, read the minutes from the original city council meeting in which the previous business license was granted. The only condition to the license was the construction of the sight obscured fence. This has not been completed. "I realize this business license was granted by a previous mayor and council and I am cautioning you to investigate before making any decisions in this license renewal," said Wagner.
Mayor Hilary Gordon informed the council of a meeting with Nick Sampinos, the city's attorney, in which he advised there is no reason to deny the renewal of this license.
Huntington resident LaMar Guymon, who lives across the street from this property was next to speak. He said he is representing himself and his property value. "In 2003, Jerry Carlson did everything by the rules. The business he opened there was noisy 24 hours a day. It then moved to Sanpete County. Carlson then received a business license for the property to open a storage facility. In 2004 he opened a different type of business doing something with filters for the mines. In 2005, he renewed that license. In 2006, he did not renew it. Then in 2007, he did not renew any of the licenses. In my estimation, that makes that license void. I do not understand how Darrin Hurdsman came along in 2007 and renewed a void business license. Now in 2008, he wants another renewal. As far as I am concerned, his license is not valid, and the sign on the property doesn't say anything about storage, it says C and S Towing and Recovery," concluded Guymon. "I don't want this business to ruin the neighborhood property values."
Following Guymon, Hurdsman spoke with a little added history of the property. "When I built my original storage units behind Castle Service, I did everything that was required and I went by all the rules. I am already licensed for a storage business. We, me and the previous officials, discussed the issue and came to conclusions and that is what I did. I was never told that anything I did was inappropriate and I was also never told of any conditional uses attached to this property," Hurdsman said.
"I have already made investments and improvements to this property," Hurdsman continued. "There are two other signs at the property that say Castle Valley Storage. I have cleaned up much of the previous owners' mess and the only things left are his personal property which he is supposed to come and get. I have no objections to the conditional uses. I will install the sight obscured fencing and I will try to clean up and improve the property," concluded Hurdsman.
The Huntington City Council members were each given time to ask questions of Hurdsman. They asked about his hours of operation and informed him of the nuisance ordinance requirements. They also asked about the necessity of another impound lot in Huntington.
Council members decided to review the land use authority recommendations and do more research into the legalities as far as the current ordinances. They will make a decision at the regular council meeting on Feb. 20.

UnbelievableThis flat iron is absolutely amazing. I am an African American woman and my hair is completely natural (no chemicals). I have had this flat iron for 5 months and every time I use it, I am amazed (every 1-2 weeks). I thought the CHI was the best thing ever, until I bought this flat iron, but the CHI has some major catching up to do. This croc makes my hair look like it has been relaxed. It looks healthy, shiny, and it has so much movement. I also feel like my hair has been growing faster since I started using it (maybe there really is something to that infrared). I get so many compliments, and people always think I went to the salon when they see me after using this on my hair, little do they know I never left my home. Furthermore, I have used this iron on two of my friends who were also amazed at the results. One was like oh my god what did you do to my hair, it looks amazing. I wish I could take the credit but I can't, because this flat iron is responsible. I would definitely buy this flat iron a million times over.Oct 14, 2009Sasha / Brooklyn, NYHAIR TYPEAfrican American

Superb !!!I have purchased several flat irons and the Croc infrared far exceeds any that I have ever used. This is the only tool to ever leave my hair shiny and healthly looking after straightening. I have thick, course hair and it was easy to use. It left no leftover bumps from the curls I normally have when straightening. I love it. Its the best and I will tell everyone that this is superior to any Ive tried.Jun 28, 2009Cayce M / Easley, SC

The Best I've Ever HadI have used it three times since I received it (within a week) and I LOVE it. It gives me the salon finish which was nearly impossible for me to achieve on my own with other flat irons. I have naturally curly and frizzy hair and it tames it like there is no tomorrow! I cant say enough great things; its light weight, easy to operate, gives great results each time, and I get compliments on my hair every time I straighten it. I love it!Jun 24, 2009Nt / Simi Valley, CA

Fantastic!!I love this flat iron!! It makes my hair healthier, stimulates hair growth, and helps get rid of my dandruff. I just got my hair trimmed the other day, and my hair stylist commented on my hair has grown more than usual. The only downside is the design of it. This flat iron is not for curling hair. It does not have floating plates like the Solia flat iron, so it makes it hard to curl. But still a great flat iron.Jun 17, 2009Natalie / Bensenville, Illinois

Best Straightener I've Ever Tried!I have very curly/frizzy hair, so Ive tried all the flat irons out there. The last time I went to my stylist, she had a croc and I was amazed at how straight and shiny my hair was. I bought one and I am able to get the same results doing it myself. Im not sure what the difference is, maybe the infrared? But this is way better than all my other straighteners (chi, sedu, etc.). I think its new, so thats why I hadnt heard of it before last month, but its definitely worth a try if you have really curly or frizzy hair. I thought the chi and sedu were both pretty good until I tried the croc, and now I see just how great I can get my hair to look.Another good thing is that it keeps my hair from getting dented from rubber bands and stuff. It just falls straight when I take it down. People use to be able to tell that I had curly hair that I straightened, but now I just look like I have normal straight hair. Hands down, best flat iron ever!Apr 20, 2009Katy / Virginia BeachHAIR TYPECurly Hair

The Most Advanced Iron Ever! Money Well Spent.I previously used the FHI Ceramic plate iron which costs almost 3x as much but the Croc Infra Red is by far the best Iron on the market. Never have I used an iron that was so gentle on my bleached blonde hair yet strong enough to straighten my natural curl.It even stays flat in humidity. I flat iron everyday and this iron keeps my hair soft and extremely shiny. Croc claims that the Infra Red helps to recondition the hair and make it healthier, and I believe it.I also use the infra red iron to curl my hair. Its like having 2 tools in 1. It is the best investment I have made for myself and my salon clients.Mar 18, 2009Stephanie Rice / Long Beach, California

Love My Croc!!A few years ago, I had bought the Sedu flat iron and thought nothing would supersede the quality I was receiving from using it. I was definitely wrong! It lasted a few years and although it does still work, I dont get the same results as I do with the Croc. My hairstylist turned me onto this one . . he said with my hair type, I would need at least 450 of heat. I was hesitant of trying anything new, but I eventually did buy it and it is so AWESOME!!. Its soooo silky and straight and feels even healthier. Did I mention it took me half the amount of time compared to my Sedu? OMG .. why didnt anyone tell me about the CROC??? Thanks so much for making such an outstanding product!Mar 13, 2009Ellen / Hawaii

Sixteen seniors graduated from Green River High School on May 22. The auditorium was packed to capacity to cheer on and congratulate the students. Pat Brady, a teacher at the school welcomed everyone, including Royd Hatt and Marie Guymon representing the Emery County School Board, and JJ Grant and Jed Jensen from the District.
"I love my job," Brady said. "I just love working with students. It has been a privilege to be the advisor to this group of seniors. This has been a fun group. I have really enjoyed it. It is tough to see you go, although I know you are eager to get on with your lives. That's how it should be, but first I want to give you some advice."
Brady told the graduates to never give up and remember those who are following them and watching their progress. He gave the students the lyrics of the song Never Give Up and a poem entitled The Bridge Builder. "Keep your head up and don't let anyone discourage you," Brady concluded.
Class Valedictorian Leah Swalberg made a few remarks. She told how this class has been together for 12 years and reminisced with memories from each grade and each student. She also told of games they had played in elementary school. "I have many fond memories that will last a lifetime. Are these my classmates? Yes, but my friends and my mentors too," Swalberg said.
"Hopefully we each know where we want to go from here. It's our choice which path we take. The sky's the limit. This is our night, our time to shine. Those in attendance here tonight have given so much to us. This is the end of one era and the beginning of another. We have worn the colors with pride. Let's go Pirates, let's go," Swalberg concluded.
Salutatorian of the 2008 class Richard Scott Dean said, "During the time I have spent at Green River High School, I have developed friendships to last a lifetime. Look at the graduates. Each one has invested 13 years to get here tonight and each one is deserving of respect. We are on the threshold of the big step to the future. I want to thank all those who helped us get to this point," Dean stated.
Dean went on to say that until now, the graduates are a result of that help. He then gave one piece of advice. "In this competitive age which needs more educational skills, the more education we gain, the better off we will be."
Following Dean's remarks, a slide show was presented featuring photos of each graduate. Green River Principal Nolan Johnson said, "The graduates represent 13 years of challenges and tears. Well done parents." Johnson introduced the graduates while Hatt congratulated them and handed them their diplomas.
To close the ceremony, Troy Sweeten said, "I want to thank everyone. It has taken us a long time, with a lot of help from family and friends to get here. Thanks for coming."
Emery High held its 45th class on May 22. The event was held in the Emery High auditorium. Taryn Baker senior class president welcomed everyone to the event. She described the graduating class as outstanding. They have held many fund raisers and collected $1,500 for the Emery Scholarship fund. They took first in region track and girls basketball. They had 81 students take the AP test. One hundred and sixty-seven scholarships were earned by the class. They hosted a food drive where they beat Carbon by gathering the most food. They also raised money for a classmate for a classmate Ryan Thompson who needs a liver transplant. "We are an exceptional class and we can say that we were 'great in 08," said Baker.
Bryan Larsen gave the prayer and Dory Peacock led the audience in the Pledge of Allegiance. Kyle Holmes, studentbody president presented the teacher of the year award to Lee Moss.
Co-Salutatorian McKay Allred addressed the audience. Allred told the story of the Itsy, Bitsy Spider. The spider began to climb up the water spout, he was faced with difficulties when the water washed him back down the spout, but the spider began to climb again. Allred likened the graduates to the spider. When difficulties confront us, it's time to start climbing. The spider built his home on the roof top where conditions were sturdy. The graduates, too need a sure firm foundation. They need to go above and beyond their high school education and seek higher education. Allred said it is a proven fact that those with high school educations earn less in their lifetimes than those who seek a higher degree. Even though education is expensive, it is worth it in the end. "I encourage you all to rise above the average. Don't just go above, go to infinity and beyond," said Allred.
Co-Salutatorian Kirsa Merrell's address was on "Reflections." She encouraged the seniors to look forward, but not to forget to look back and remember their high school experiences. In high school they have taken many classes and met many new friends. They have stepped out of their comfort zones and met many new people. Merrell said the graduates need to keep their goals in sight. "As long as we remember where we came from, things will work out. Your reflection is a reflection of these things. Remember these goals," said Merrell.
Honor student, Katherine DeBry said she loves musicals. One saying from a musical she likes is "Get your head in the game." Some of the graduates will be heading to work, college or missions. Life after high school is not a party. It gets harder. She encouraged the graduates not to lose focus in college. Life is hard, but there is no reason not to reach our goals. DeBry said she had watched a DVD about a famous weaver in Ireland who had very famous people want her art work. In the interview she was asked the reason behind her success. The weaver said simply, "When I weave, I weave." DeBry told the graduates to be as the weaver. When you work, work. When you play, play. When you study, study. Give your all in whatever you are doing. Give it all your attention. She gave some advice to college bound students. "Don't procrastinate. Get your sleep. Lack of sleep can cause you to lose focus. Be active, discover your talents. Budget your money. We have all the right ingredients to reach our goals, we just need to bake the cake. Life's successes are ours for the taking. It's the beginning of a whole new quarter of this complicated thing called life, 'Get your head in the game,' said DeBry.
The senior members of the choir presented a song called, "May you always have a song," directed by David Bird.
Honor student, Billie Jean Reed told the audience, this experience of speaking at graduation was a little scary. Her message to the graduating class was you are only given one chance at life, don't mess it up. You are only a stupid sophomore once, you only have to take the AP European History test once. We only get to dress up like princes and princesses at the Junior Prom once. We are only graduates once. Memories, I wouldn't trade all my memories of high school for anything in the world. The moments are gone, the three years of high school are gone. Life will be leading in new directions. It is exciting, but excruciatingly nerve wracking. Put the pieces of your life together, good luck. Have big dreams. Joe Lewis said, we only live once, but if we work it, once is enough. You are only young once, you are only old once, make it worthwhile. You only get one opportunity at life. Take the chance you are given and run like the wind just this once, said Reed.
Honor student, Jordan Sanders encouraged everyone to set goals and achieve them. Have dreams, but the only way to make dreams a reality is by having ambition. Sanders told the story of Jim Carrey, famous actor. At a young age, Carrey was forced to quit school to help support his family. At one time they lived in a van in Canada. But, Carrey had ambition. He wrote himself a check for $10 million and said one day he would cash that check. He did standup comedy that wasn't always well received, but he improved and perfected his act. He began acting in minor roles in movies in the US and the rest is history. He starred in the Mask, Dumb and Dumber and Ace Ventura Pet Detective. At age 32 he cashed that check.
Sanders said his goal is to become a college professor in music. "What are your dreams and goals? Do you want to achieve them? Alrighty then, turn the key," said Sanders in his best Jim Carrey impersonation.
Honor student Madison Jensen spoke on enjoying the ride. School might be tough but laugh and learn and move on. If you're always stressed out, it makes it so you don't enjoy life. Jensen spoke of all the things she was going to remember from high school. The Lagoon trip, JR Nelson in his overalls, dance class, senior talent night, etc. "There are some amazing people and great memories. Because of the people, I have enjoyed the ride. Life can be hard at times, but we can't sit on the sidelines and let everyone else have the fun. Enjoy the ride, but remember to keep your hands and legs inside the ride at all times," said Jensen.
Tamra Luke, Valedictorian, spoke on "Nothing's going to stop us now." She told the graduates they each have their own gifts. She encouraged them to take their talents and abilities and make the most of them. She told of the things her mom had taught her. Luke said her mom taught them to love and be strong. She helped Luke be successful. When Luke was working on her Sterling Scholar she wanted to put her best self forward, but she decided not to put anything in that wasn't honest and accurate. Luke said her father is a hard worker and has been a good example. If the job isn't hard enough, her dad will make it harder. Once this past winter they were trying to get into their cabin, but a snow drift prevented their passage. So her father decided they would dig through the drift. "Everything he does, he does well. One time I hurt my ankle at school and was limping and my grandfather told me to quit limping it wouldn't make it feel any better. My brother was always telling me, don't be a crier. Refuse to be beaten. Nothing can stop us now if we are determined. With hard work, integrity and perserverance, nothing can stop us now," said Luke.
School principal Gwen Callahan encouraged the graduates to go to college and to get a degree. She told them not to be afraid of commitments and to become involved in life. Listen to the advice of your parents. A measure of your success will be in how you treat others who are weaker than you. "Trouble and pain are a part of life, misery is optional," said Callahan.
Board president Laurel Johansen accepted the seniors for graduation and diplomas were given to each student as they were presented. The class then sang the school song, "Halls of Emery." The graduates met with their families and friends after the ceremony for photographs in the old gym.
Water is always a hot topic and with newly passed legislation water becomes even more interesting. Marc Stilson from the Division of Water Rights gave an update of the water legislation which effects Emery County water rights holders to the public lands council at their May meeting.
Stilson said the major provision of HB-51 is that it protects a water right from forfeiture if a public water supplier holds the water for the reasonable future water
Stilson said the major provision of HB-51 is that it protects a water right from forfeiture if a public water supplier holds the water for the reasonable future water requirements of the public. The reasonable future water requirement of the public was defined as the amount of water needed in the next 40 years by the persons within the public water supplier's projected service area based on projected population growth or other water use demand. This gives public water suppliers a cushion to allow for growth and development in cities.
The new law also changes the nonuse period of a water right from five to seven years of consecutive nonuse before a water right becomes subject to forfeiture. The legislation also clarifies the forfeiture procedure and the distribution of water after a forfeiture. The bill allows a water right holder or a shareholder in a water company to file a nonuse application, which protects a water right from forfeiture for nonuse from the application's filing date until the approved application's expiration date. An approved nonuse application would be good for seven years. Additional nonuse application could be filed to maintain this nonuse status.
Previous to this year's legislation, if a nonuse application expired, then the water right would cease and be automatically forfeited by statute. With the new legislation, when a non-use application expires there is no self-executing clause and the water right would not be forfeited unless there was a judicial action to declare it so. If a judicial action is commenced and a forfeiture decree is issued by the court then the water right ceases and the water reverts back to the public for further distribution or appropriation. Also the provision that required a water user to submit proof of beneficial use upon full resumption of water use on a water right that was being protected by a non-use application was deleted from the statute.
Because all self-executing clauses to forfeit a water right outside of an official judicial action have been deleted from the law, the State Engineer will likely no longer consider issues of forfeiture in making administrative decisions in regards to change applications filed on water rights. Water forfeitures must go through the court system and be determined forfeit by a judge. Judicial action is the only way to get forfeiture on a water right. Several other exemptions from forfeiture for water right holders were also defined by this legislation including an exemption for water rights subject to an approved change application where the applicant is diligently pursuing certification.
All change applications are advertised publicly and anyone interested in protesting the application would have the opportunity to comment on any changes however, issues in regards to forfeiture would have to be taken up in a civil court case.
Another bill discussed was HB 208 dealing with the livestock watering rights. The key change in the law made by this bill is that after May 5 of this year, only a beneficial user may acquire a livestock watering right on public land. A beneficial user is defined in the legislation as the person that owns the grazing permit and public land is defined as land owned or managed by the United States or the State of Utah with the exception of land owned by the Division of Wildlife Resources or the School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration. Additionally, the State Engineer may not approve a change application for a livestock watering right without the consent of the beneficial user.
Mesia Nyman from the US Forest Service said this bill would hold up water projects that permittees have planned for their allotments on the forest. Nyman said the forest service is working with the State Engineers office to resolve the problems created by this bill. The state engineer shall grant a livestock water use certificate if the beneficial user demonstrates that the beneficial user owns a grazing permit for the allotment to which the livestock water right is appurtenant. If a person ceases to be a beneficial user, the livestock water right transfers to the Department of Agriculture and Food.
This bill is concerning new livestock watering rights, not previously issued water rights.Nyman said they aren't sure what this new law is going to mean. For now, the water projects and any maintenance work on the forest are suspended. Nyman pointed out that everything existing now, will still exist. Nyman will find out about the maintenance of existing water structures.
Stilson said neither of these two bills were sponsored by the Division of Water Rights, however, they are working to implement them as the legislature intended. He expects the two bills will experience changes in the future as problems with the legislation are worked out. Stilson also mentioned water rights are a complex issue and the Department of Natural Resources has created an executive water rights task force to study water right issues.
The MECCA bike club recently hosted the San Rafael Swell Mountain Bike festival. This was the 22nd annual San Rafael Swell bike festival. This year's event drew 144 riders from throughout Utah and the western United States.
The event began with a dinner at the John Wesley Powell River History Museum. Biking began early on Saturday morning and continued throughout Saturday and Sunday with rides for beginners to advanced.
"From the beginning, the Festivals have been geared to a wide-range of mountain biking enthusiasts - from the novice to the seasoned; from the occasional to the frequent; from the single rider to the family of riders; and from the rider whose sole interest is the picturesque surroundings to the rider whose sole interest is in the merits of the bike. Rides vary in degree of difficulty, each offering a different perspective of the beautiful San Rafael Swell. There really is a ride for every interest," said LaMar Guymon, member of MECCA.
The festivals provides not just a biking experience but opportunities to learn of others' interest in riding. Riders share stories during the "pit stops" along a ride. Riders also take the time to get to know each other at the evening before the rides pasta dinner and drawing. An integral part of the festival is not just the riding but the Dutch-oven cookout provided by the Emery County Search and Rescue and stories around the campfire. There is time to learn from others and talk biking trivia and also just to enjoy the great outdoors in the Swell area.
MECCA club members take pride in "pampering" their festival guests. When you ride the unfamiliar, their experienced guides will help you through the experience.
MECCA club members are available to answer questions about every aspect of the event like: When's lunch? Why does my bike....? How much further until we get there? What's that formation called? Where can I buy supplies?, a club member will be identifiable and not too far away. Also not too far away are the "sag wagons" with emergency personnel and supplies which will also be there to give you a lift if you tire before the end of the planned ride. The club even provides an "on-duty" mechanic for minor bike fixes. Deckers Bicycle of Castle Dale and Price are the onsite mechanics.
MECCA club appreciates all the support they receive from the local businesses. They appreciate the Emery County Recreation District for their sponsorship of the event and all the services they provide for the event. The event attracts people from all over the United States who not only attend the festival and spend approximately $300 a day in our area contributing to the economy. These visitors to the area return often and bring others with them to enjoy the Emery County scenery.
In his report at commission meeting, Commissioner Drew Sitterud announced a new boat ramp has been installed at the newly constructed low water boat ramp at Joe's Valley reservoir. With the amount of water being released from the reservoir, the water level is way down, and the end of the boat ramp remains in the water.
Delena Fish from the Department of Workforce Services was at the recent Emery County Commission meeting to give her quarterly update. She reported to the commissioners the comparison of the Emery County Eastern Region office to the remainder of the state is very favorable to her staff. The unemployment rate in Emery County is currently at 3.2 percent, but it is steadily rising.
Fish said her office has sent out 30 letters of possible eligibility for services from her office due to the rising unemployment rate. In the first quarter of this year, Emery County was not eligible due to the lower unemployment rate.
She also explained the new computer systems the DWS is receiving. The Castle Dale office will pilot a new program call Erep for the entire state. Beginning in June, her office will begin using Erep along with the current system as a backup to figure benefits for clients. Her staff is training on the new system now to be able to begin the pilot program.
In August, the entire state will go on this Erep program, and this new systems, applications from around the state will come into this office for processing. "This is a good way to keep our staff working year round with a more equitable workload for everyone," said Fish. "We will be able to do medical reviews over the telephone then, and this process will be more efficient." Fish also said that Kristen Cox, the new state director has instituted a new process to evaluate all the state offices to eliminate duplication and waste.
In other business conducted by the Emery County commissioners, it was approved to advertise for a person to be appointed to fill the seat vacated by Merrill Duncan Jr. on the Emery County Planning commission. Duncan was also approved for hire in the county road department as an equipment operator.
The commissioners also approved a tax deferral to the owner of property in Ferron. This owner lives in Colorado and has fallen behind in the taxes for enough time the property was going to be sold at the tax sale. The property owner has paid half of the delinquent taxes and has requested a deferral of the remainder until November.
Concerning the sale of the old sheriff's office building in Castle Dale, Darrin Hurdsman addressed the commissioners. "I talked to the commissioners at the sale when I bid on the property and was told there was no deadline to complete the demolition of the building, so I have been in no hurry. With our Joe's Valley project taking up so much time this spring, I have focused all my attention on it. We needed the old sheriff's office building for storage. That project will be complete and the business will open on Memorial Day weekend," said Hurdsman.
"I know it is very important for the curb appeal of the property, so after Memorial Day, I can work on the building. We changed the locks in the building after we purchased it because we noticed open doors and disturbed things in there. I have now given Commissioner Sitterud and Commissioner Horrocks a key," Hurdsman concluded.
Commissioner Gary Kofford explained to Hurdsman the conditions of the sale, at which Hurdsman has purchased the property. He said in the agreement of purchase, Hurdsman had signed an agreement to provide a $30,000 performance bond for the demolition work and did not sign a waiver to release the county from any responsibility for the property. "I don't know why this was not taken care of at the sale, why this waiver was not been signed. This is essential for you to sign as soon as possible. Our clerk has the form in her office and we are asking you to sign that before you leave today," said Kofford. Hurdsman agreed to sign the form at once, and to bring proof of the performance bond and demolition plan to the commissioners within three months.

Egyptian Health Department asks residents to consider diabetes on American Diabetes Association Alert Day and research their own risk for the disease.
Nearly 26 million Americans have diabetes. It is estimated that at least 1 out of 4 people with diabetes don't even know they have the disease, according to a release from the department. Additionally, nearly 79 million adults in the United States have prediabetes, a condition that increases their chances of developing type 2 diabetes.
In support of American Diabetes Association Alert Day — Tuesday, March 26 — the National Diabetes Education Program, local health departments throughout Southern Illinois are encouraging people to find out if they are at risk for type 2 diabetes. If left undiagnosed or untreated, diabetes can lead to serious health problems including heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, amputation, and even death.
The department says those with a family history of diabetes – such as a mother, father, brother, or sister with type 2 diabetes – or those who had diabetes during pregnancy – could have a higher chance of developing the disease.
Other risk factors for type 2 diabetes include being overweight or obese, physically inactive, and over the age of 45. Diabetes is also more common in African Americans, people of African Ancestry, Hispanics and Latinos, American Indians, Alaska Natives, Asian Americans, and Pacific Islanders.
The department encourages everyone to know their risk for type 2 diabetes by talking to their family about their family history of diabetes and finding out if you – or someone you love – could be at risk for type 2 diabetes.
The NDEP has tools you can use to learn more about your risk for type 2 diabetes and steps you can take to delay or prevent this disease. Visit www.YourDiabetesInfo.org/AlertDay2013 to find some of the following:
- Diabetes Risk Test. This tool asks simple questions about weight, age, family history and other potential risks for prediabetes or type 2 diabetes.
- NDEP's Family Health History Quiz asks four true/false questions to help people better understand their family health history of diabetes
- NDEP's 4 Questions You Should Ask Your Family about Diabetes and Family Health History offers ways to help you talk with your family about your family's health history of diabetes.
Studies have shown that type 2 diabetes can be prevented or delayed by losing a small amount of weight – 5 to 7 percent which is 10 to 14 pounds for a 200-pound person – and becoming more active. Action steps include making healthy food choices and being active at least 30 minutes, five days a week.
Those at risk for type 2 diabetes may take the first step to make lifestyle changes to improve health with NDEP's Just One Step online tool (www.YourDiabetesInfo.org/JustOneStep). They may also call 1-888-693-NDEP

By the way, The Chef, cause he's a real chef, will be the mastermind behind my attempt to cook pork shoulder number two next week. It apparently involves coconut milk.
To Prepare Seafood:
Start with clean, tailless raw shrimp. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Heat saute pan on medium with a little olive oil. Cook until both sides are pink, flipping halfway through. Set aside.
Add crab to pan. Crab should be cooked, so heat until just warm, being careful not to overcook or break up crab chunks.
Gently mix shrimp and crab in with warmed pesto. Set aside.
To Prepare Shallots:
Slice shallots thinly and dredge in flour. Heat about 1/4 inch vegetable or canola oil in pan until it sizzles. Add in dredged shallots. Cook shallots until they've browned, no darker than a lunch bag. Remove from oil to a paper towel to let drain. Sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt.
To Assemble Sandwich:
Slice bread in half and spread with roasted garlic. Stack with crab, then shrimp, cutting shrimp in half lengthwise if necessary. Sprinkle with shallots, a little pepper & devour.
