Robin Cormack, classicist and art historian
And life slips by like a field mouse,
Not shaking the grass.
Working on a new edition of my book Icons – first published by the British Museum in 2007 – I was reminded of these lines by the poet Ezra Pound on the rapid passing of time. I had to think what changes might be necessary to my work after seven years. In writing Icons my hope was to do two things: to celebrate the importance of the collection of Byzantine and Russian icons in the British Museum, and at the same time to give reasons why icons form a significant part of the history of Europe too. To use a favourite phrase of art historians, if art is embedded in society, then how can we understand that society through looking at its art? Icons are a special case because they are a medium that was produced in Europe from the early centuries of Christianity, became an essential element in the lives of the people of the Middle Ages, especially in the Byzantine world with its capital of Constantinople, but continue to be produced today. In other words, if you go into an Orthodox church, you will see in use icons first painted centuries ago side by side with new icons. That makes icons a very special form of art. There is the further complication that you may also see icons, not in a church, but in a 'secular' setting like the British Museum. Do they have the same impact in that context?
What changes have there been since 2007? The Museum has acquired a dozen more icons since then, which are illustrated at the end of the catalogue. For me the most charismatic new icon is the Nativity of Christ (cat. no. 112), painted on Crete in the 17th century. It came to the British Museum in 2012 as a bequest from the artist and Royal Academician John Craxton who for most of his life worked in a studio at Chania and produced colourful and joyful paintings of life in modern Crete. He wanted this, the best icon in his collection, to be in the British Museum collection, and so the Museum has in its possession a painting previously owned by the artist who encouraged art historians to appreciate the icons of Crete.
Possibly the best known icon in the British Museum is the Triumph of Orthodoxy, dating to the 14th century. It celebrates the end of the period of Iconoclasm in the 8th and 9th centuries when icons were banned in Byzantium. From AD 843 onwards, the ban was revoked and icons became a defining feature of the Orthodox Church. The people who fought for icons are represented on the icon. As part of my research for the new edition of the book, I looked closely again at the icon, especially at the fragmentary Greek inscriptions giving the names of these iconophile 'heroes'. I decided that I – as well as everyone else who had looked – had made some wrong deductions about who some of the figures were. In the new edition I identify the two central saints in the lower register, who jointly hold an image of Christ, as the two most famous iconophiles: St Stephanos, who was reputedly martyred in the 8th century, and St Theodore who was exiled on the 9th century for promoting the veneration of icons. As for the saints on the right, it is now argued that the artist wrote the wrong names beside some of the figures. The most likely explanation is that the icon copies an earlier icon of the same subject and the artist made a few mistakes, probably because the model was larger and had a few more figures.
So a second edition gives a second chance to look and interpret. Perhaps Ezra Pound was unduly pessimistic.

Notice: The Pueblo West Metropolitan District Board of Directors are working on the budget for 2014.
You know this is where five elected metro board members write a blank check for next year's spending.
The monies spent and commitments made for the likes of Fire Station No. 3, Desert Hawk Golf Course and planning for the Soaring Eagles Sports Complex are spent lost forever.
It is sad that board meetings play to an almost empty house every second and fourth Tuesday of every month.
If you have ideas and strong commitments to issues then attend the meetings where the people who govern will hear you.
All talk and no show gets little done.
Those unhappy taxpayers missed a real show of representative government at the Oct. 8 metro board meeting.
As time wore on, a consultant and planner was hired to plan Civic Center Park.
Public hearings for input were held, a plan was submitted, plans were finalized and requests for bids were sent out which included alternative additions.
The low bid was accepted at around $1 million with several of the board members apparently unaware of changes made by Pueblo West staff.
Pueblo West staff came in Oct. 8 suggesting additional spending above and beyond the original plans which will extend the project to $1.4 million.
Comments were similar to "If we don't do it now, we may never get another chance as next years budget looks tough."
Why spend big dollars to hire consultants to make plans if Pueblo West Metropolitan District doesn't want to follow them.
That's a waste to taxpayer dollars.
Recalling Pueblo County Commissioners acquisition of the Ice House property for $750,000 then spending $8 million to clean it up and then committing an additional $100 million for the new building, makes me wonder if our Pueblo West officials have learned to just start spending and making change orders to get what didn't appear to be affordable in the first place.
I would like to see a project built to the original plan, which includes all costs, and at the original total amount. Tell the taxpayers what is being done and stick to the bid amount.
As far as the water used on the golf course, one needs to remember the golf course uses untreated water whereas Parks and Recreation uses treated water.
Per acre it costs more to water parks than the golf course because the golf course pumps water, at its own expense, from Cattail Crossing, which is wastewater from the water treatment plant.
Also, the golf course does pay a portion of their water bill whereas Parks and Recreation pays nothing.
If you're unhappy about the water rate increases, just remember you are not just watering your lawn but also the parks.

"These looked very cute online, so I ordered a pair. When they arrived, I noticed that the insole liners do not fit the shoe, and they were pucked up. When I tried them on, toe is so narrow compared to the rest of the shoe making my feet look fat. I really wanted to like these, so I am very disappointed. They are going back to the store."

For Immediate ReleaseWednesday, September 6, 2000
FAIRFAX, VA. Attorney General Janet Reno and the U.S. Department of Justices Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) today announced $68 million in grants to hire 599 new police officers to work in schools across the nation. These grants will go to 289 cities and towns across the country.
We know that if communities, schools, government, law enforcement, and community members work together to address the roots of violence, we can make America safer for our children, said Attorney General Janet Reno. These school resource officers will enhance school safety and enable our children to learn in a secure environment.
The COPS in Schools program is an effort to assist communities in taking a comprehensive approach to addressing the growing problem of school violence, said Thomas Frazier, Director of the COPS program. "It is our hope that by adding these additional school resource officers, every child in America will have the opportunity to go to a school that is safe and secure.
The COPS program is the Administrations initiative to add 100,000 officers to the beat and advance community policing nation wide. Community policing is a crime fighting strategy that encourages law enforcement to work in partnership with the community to identify and reduce crime problems.
To date, the COPS program has funded more than 105,000 officers. President Clinton has proposed continuing the COPS program for an additional five years to add up to 50,000 more officers to local communities. The officers hired with todays grants are the latest installment toward this goal.
Todays grants were awarded under the COPS in Schools program, which funds the hiring of community policing officers to work in primary and secondary schools. Grants provide up to $125,000 to pay for the salary and benefits of each new officer over three years.
In this award announcement, 45 states received funding including: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, North Carolina, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Nevada, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and Wyoming.

About Force MD's
Although not as well-known as other New York hip-hop acts of the early '80s, Staten Island's Force M.D.'s were a vital crew in the early history of street hip-hop and one of the first vocal groups to fuse doo wop-influenced harmonies with hip-hop beats. Originally a street troupe known as the LD's, the group sang and danced on Greenwich Village street corners and the Staten Island ferry. Its members included brothers Stevie D and Antoine "TCD" Lundy, their uncle Jesse Lee Daniels, and friends Trisco Pearson and Charles "Mercury" Nelson. The group hooked up with DJ Dr. Rock, and billing themselves as Dr. Rock and the MC's, began playing in local hip-hop venues. However, by the time the group signed to Tommy Boy in 1984 as the Force M.D.'s (M.D. standing for "musical diversity"), they had evolved into a more straightforward R&B vocal group, distinguished mostly by their street attitude. The M.D.'s had a string of R&B hits through the '80s, but their only pop hit was the Top Ten Jimmy Jam/Terry Lewis-penned ballad "Tender Love," which was featured in the movie Krush Groove. 1987 produced the group's first R&B number one, "Love Is a House," but their popular appeal began to ebb the following year. Mercury and Trisco left in 1990 and were replaced by Rodney "Khalil" Lundy and Shawn Waters. The group released the album Get Ready in 1994 as several members worked with other artists as producers. Though Nelson, Lundy, and DJ Dr. Rock each died an early death (Nelson of a heart attack, Lundy of Lou Gehrig's disease), the group returned in 1998, signed to a contract thanks to fellow Staten Island-natives Wu-Tang Clan. ~ Steve Huey, Rovi

The hide race was so popular on July 24 that the contestants and fans wanted it repeated on Friday and Saturday nights. It was an exciting event, someone took out the judge, lost their pants and even wiped out the electronic eye. The wild cow milking was as exciting as ever and Cliff McElprang and Will Payne were the overall winners.
"This was the 10th year of the Desertview ProRodeo. There were some people who didn't think a ProRodeo would work in Emery County and said it couldn't be done. But, the volunteers here have kept coming back all 10 years and have made this rodeo what it is today. It's an event Emery County can be proud of and every year the fans just keep coming back and our crowd grows larger each year. The sponsors, the fans and the volunteers just make it all possible. We couldn't do it without them. The volunteers are the heart and soul of this rodeo.
"Charley Jenkins was the big surprise and he played for the dance on Friday night. About half the rodeo crowd stayed to hear Charley. It was a good time. No one won the Dodge truck, but we appreciate the Price Auto Group for sponsoring the drivers license match event. The Tough Enough to Wear Pink Night on Saturday went very well and we will have a sizeable donation for Active ReEntry.
"We had the very top rodeo contestants in the business here in Castle Dale. It was the very best list of top cowboys we've ever had. One of the reasons we had so many top contenders is our joining the Heartland ProRodeo Series. Magnuson Lumber has always been one of our top sponsors and this year they kicked in more money so we could be a part of this Heartland Series. Being part of the Heartland Series opens Castle Dale up to get even more top cowboys. The money goes into a pool which culminates with the Heart of Texas rodeo in the fall. Competing in Castle Dale helps their points toward this event in Texas. Castle Dale is now a qualifying rodeo for that series. This rodeo is a community event and we are proud to keep it coming back year after year. This 10th anniversary edition of the Desertview ProRodeo was one of the best ever and we hope to keep improving the rodeo in the years to come," said the rodeo committee.
Event winners this year included: bareback riding-first James Sursa, second Tilden Hooper, and third Billy Wall. Sursa scored 88 points on Saturday night for a new arena record. Hooper had just set a new arena record on Thursday night with his ride of 86 points.
Ryan Jarrett and JW Borrego took first in the team roping event with a time of 4.9 seconds. In the bull riding, Taylor White of Lehi scored 86 points on Saturday night to take first place. Braden Cazares was second with 82 points and Tate Stratton was tied for third with Tyler Thorpe with 81 points.
Amber Berry won the barrel racing with a time of 17.70 seconds and Julie Herman was second with a time of 17.95. Sammi Bessert was third with a time of 17.98. In the tie down roping Timber Moore set a new arena record of 8.3 seconds. Ryan Watkins was second with a time of 8.7 and Ryan Jarrett finished third with 9.3 seconds.
In the saddle bronc event Brock Winn from Ferron finished third with a score of 82. Buck Ryan was first with a score of 85 and Wyatt Smith was second with 84 points. In steer wrestling Craig Smith finished with 4.6 seconds and Ryan Shaw and Ryan Scott tied for second with 4.7 seconds.

Welcome to the new NJEA Political Action Guide. This guide updates the time-honored Legislative Program Guide that NJEA has published every winter for many years. The old guide provided members with a legislative "year in review" as well as a list of bills supported and opposed by the Association.
For many years this was a terrific resource document for dedicated NJEA political activists. NJEA recognizes, however, that times have changed. Access to information about legislation is much better today rendering the old format outdated almost as soon as it is published.
Today, NJEA activists need more than a list of bills and sponsors—they need to know where to go to find the most up-to-date information concerning legislation they care about; and they need resource materials to help them organize for legislative and political success.
Veteran NJEA activists will also notice the title of this publication has changed to include the words "Political Action." That is no accident. Legislation and politics are inextricably linked and NJEA members need to be prepared on both fronts to advance public education and their profession.
NJEA hopes this guide will be useful to you and your colleagues. Please direct any comments, questions, or feedback about this guide the NJEA Government Relations Division. We welcome your input!

Young women at the lamp
[Jeunes filles à la lampe] 1891
oil on canvas

The two young women shown here are Marthe and Eva Meurier—sisters who were the subjects of many of Denis' paintings. Denis and Marthe would be married two years after this painting was made, in 1893, and Young women at the lamp is imbued with the comfortable familiarity that is to be expected between an affianced couple. Marthe and Eva were both talented musicians and are shown absorbed in their music, oblivious to the presence of the painter who observes them. The tenderness of the image is created through the use of soft, undulating line. Indeed there are no straight lines in the picture at all: the women's hair, faces, dresses, arms and shoulders are all rendered with a gentle curve.
The intimacy of the work is emphasised by the use of soft lamplight. Like many of his fellow Nabis, Denis often portrayed scenes of domestic life in an Intimist style. Characteristic of this style is the use of a single light source—most commonly a lamp or candle—to illuminate a scene (see Vallotton's Dinner by lamplight). Here, Pointillist dots of warm yellow and peach-pink show the glow of the lamp on the women's faces, while tinges of blue and green create shadows where the light does not fall. The use of decorative arabesques on the lampshade is also typical of Intimist works1 and prefigures Denis' extensive use of this device in the Regatta at Perros-Guirec, painted in 1892.
As in Princess Maleine's minuet, where Marthe is shown seated at a piano, here both sisters are shown at the instrument, Marthe bent towards it, listening intently as Eva plays. The motif of music is important in Denis' work—both as a symbol of his love for Marthe (with whom he shared this passion), and also as a basis for his colour theory.2 In the final paragraph of his 1890 treatise, Definition of Neo-Traditionalism, Denis wrote:
And the lighting! The atmosphere! The blue arabesques in the background, with their insistent and caressing rhythm, form a prestigious accompaniment to the orange-hued motif, like the seduction of the violins in the Tannhäuser overture.3
Denis refers here to a synaesthetic interpretation of Richard Wagner's opera, Tannhäuser, thus demonstrating his belief that the visual arts can provoke an emotional response through colour and form, in the same way that music provokes emotion through the arrangement of notes into harmonies.
In Young women at the lamp, we see Denis begin to experiment with these ideas. Through the highly simplified planes of Marthe's and Eva's faces, the stylised arabesques, and the lamp's soft light, Denis imparts his affections for the pair. This is not a naturalistic representation of the Meurier sisters, but an idealised expression of a young man's love.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The Emery County Democratic Party met for their county convention on April 28 at the Museum of the San Rafael in Castle Dale.
Rep. Jim Matheson spoke to the audience. He spoke of the Moore Road project and how he has been able to secure funds for that project. He is also concerned about SR-10 and will look for funding options to improve that road. Rep. Matheson has long been a strong opponent of nuclear testing, he experienced first hand the death of his father Scott Matheson from cancer attributed to his being a downwinder during the age of nuclear testing. "The issue of nuclear weapons is back," said Matheson. He said on a detailed map of where incidences of cancer occur, thyroid cancer has hit Emery and Carbon counties. He said the nuclear clouds didn't stop at county lines. There are plans for a 700 ton explosion of conventional weapons on June 2. This concerns Rep. Matheson, because we don't have the capability to deliver such an explosion so why test for it. Efforts to develop a low yield nuclear explosion, angers Rep. Matheson. "Weapons testing is a bad idea, the government is playing games," said Rep. Matheson. He said he is approachable and willing to work with the county to solve problems. He is proud of the funds he has helped allocate for SR-6 with its designation as a high priority corridor which opens up other funding opportunities.
Rep. Matheson said Pam Juliano is his regional assistant and she is the eyes and ears of the communities for him. He said she has done a tremendous job keeping him informed on the happenings of the Emery/Carbon area. He also said he has enjoyed working with the Emery County officials and has learned a lot from them.
Senator Mike Dmitrich talked about the decisions our state legislature made this year - decisions that denies people dental care and lowers access to health care. He said several clinics in the Navajo reservations will have to be closed because of these decisions. He said they failed in Human Services but they voted to get a nice new lane on I-15 from Provo to Salt Lake.
Representative Brad King talked about the state of politics in Utah. He has met with LDS church leaders to discuss his concerns. He said he is tired of hearing that morality applies only to sexual issues. He thinks it's immoral the way our state legislature sent 44 people from home health care to nursing homes this year by cutting home health care services. They also cut respite care - so those caring for seriously ill family members will no longer be able to get a break. He said the world is run by those who show up and he thanked all in attendance for showing up.
Rob Miller, the Vice Chair of the State Democratic party said that the Democrats have had 220 people file for office this year. That is a three decade record. He said things are changing. "Even Republicans are wondering why their party has left them. They have left the people of Utah. They do not have a monopoly on values. Democrats have always had values. Democrats have done nothing but govern Utah well. We need to get back to the days of effective policies that we had with Governor Rampton and Governor Matheson," stated Miller.

The Chatfield Community Homeowners Association filed a lawsuit against Douglas County for the board of county commissioner's decision to approve the controversial Sterling Ranch subdivision.
The lawsuit was filed June 14, about a month after commissioners approved the developer's request to subdivide more than 3,400 acres in the Chatfield Valley and gain an appeal to the county's water regulations.
The proposal met with resistance from surrounding communities, which decried the water proposal and accompanying plans to add more than 12,000 homes, construct a sports village, recreation center and commercial district to the rural area along Titan Road.
The lawsuit alleges the county either abused its discretion or exceeded its authority in the Sterling Ranch decision, said Lance Ingalls, Douglas County attorney. The developer, Harold Smethills, sought and gained court approval to add Sterling Ranch to the lawsuit as a party to the case, Ingalls said.
County commissioners heard the Sterling Ranch application during public hearings that spanned eight county commissioner meetings and included public comment from about 100 people. Public comment was divided on the application and included input from people for and against the proposal.
The county commissioner's May 11 decision on the application was a unanimous vote to approve Sterling Ranch, with conditions that ranged from requirements to ensure Sterling Ranch will satisfy verbal promises and commitments made throughout the public hearings to making the developer's commitments in its video application a guiding element of the development.
The county is in the process of having the recordings from nearly 40 hours of public hearings transcribed for purposes of the appeal, Ingalls said. The transcripts, along with thousands of pages of written documentation that were part of the public hearings, will become part of the Sterling Ranch record and provide the framework for the legal arguments to begin, he said.

"I bought this earlier this summer for a dance. I was a little worried they would be uncomfortable and I would have to take them off before the night was over, but they were extremely comfortable! I have fairly wide feet, so a lot of shoes are too tight on me, especially around the toes, but these fit like a glove. I got tons of compliments on them and they looked amazing; now I just have to find more places to wear them!"

Whole Wheat
This one is pretty easy, as long as you don't let food marketers trick you. It can be readily found in bread and pasta products, but make sure the label says "100 percent whole wheat." Terms like "multigrain" and "wheat" don't cut it. As when you're shopping for any whole-grain product, look at the ingredients and make sure the whole grain is at or near the top of the list. Each serving should contain at least 2 or 3 grams of fiber.

Whole Oats/Oatmeal
Oats are particularly rich in avenanthramide, an antioxidant that protects the heart. When you're shopping for this whole grain, whether you see the word "whole" or not doesn't matter the way it does with wheat products. Oats in the ingredients list mean the product is made from whole oats. But, if you are buying something like instant oatmeal, avoid those that contain high-fructose corn syrup. Studies have found that it was a source of mercury contamination in oatmeal. We suggest sticking to the good old-fashioned unsweetened kind and mixing in a little fruit or honey.
For all practical purposes, bulgur is considered a whole grain, even though up to 5 percent of its bran may be removed during processing. It's so good for you, though, we're putting it on the list. The grain, which is used to make tabbouleh salad, is a great source of iron and magnesium. The fiber and protein powerhouse (a cup contains nearly 75 percent of the dietary fiber you need for the day, and 25 percent of the protein you should get) can be used in salads or tossed in soups. And it cooks in only a few minutes.
Related: Tabbouleh with Fruit
Brown Rice
When you choose white rice over brown, around 75 percent of its nutrients—including nearly all the antioxidants, magnesium, phosphorus, and B vitamins contained in the healthy bran and germ—are left on the milling-room floor. Always opt for brown rice, which includes brown aromatic varieties like basmati and jasmine. Get even more exotic with red and black rice, both of which are considered whole grains and are high in antioxidants. Though technically a grass, wild rice is also considered a whole grain and is rich in B vitamins, such as niacin and folate.
Whole-Grain Barley
Eating a half-cup of whole barley regularly during a 5-week period cut participants' cholesterol levels by nearly 10 percent when compared to other participants who went without barley in a USDA study. Add raisins or dried apricots to quick-cooking barley and serve it as a side dish. Just make sure it's whole-grain barley, not "pearled," which means the bran and germ have been removed.
Related: Brew Your Own Beer
Whole Rye
According to nutritional research from the nonprofit Organic Center, rye has more nutrients per 100-calorie serving than any other whole grain. It has four times more fiber than standard whole wheat and provides you with nearly 50 percent of your daily recommended amount of iron. The problem is, most rye and pumpernickel bread in this country is made with refined flours. Be persistent and look for "whole rye" topping the ingredients list to get the healthy benefits.
Related: How to Grow Your Own Healthy Grains
This common pancake whole grain is one of the whole grains many people living with celiac disease can tolerate (others include quinoa, amaranth, and sorghum). And it's one of the best grain-based sources of magnesium, a wonder mineral that does everything from ease PMS symptoms to improve nerve functioning; and manganese, which boosts brain power. And thank goodness for that, because who doesn't enjoy a good buckwheat pancake from time to time?
Related: Buckwheat as a Summer Cover Crop
Whole-Wheat Couscous
Most of the couscous you see is a form of pasta, usually made from refined wheat flour. So when you're eying the items in the aisle for the healthiest couscous pick, look for the whole-wheat kind, most easily found in natural-food stores. Skipping the refined version and going with the whole-grain type will gain you 5 additional grams of fiber.
Related: Orange Couscous Salad
Yes, corn can be healthy for you when it's whole! A good source of B vitamins, magnesium, and phosphorus, whole corn is also thought to increase healthy gut flora, which can ward off diabetes, heart disease, and chronic inflammation. Yellow corn is also high in antioxidants. The easiest way to eat it? Popcorn. Just skip the microwavable kinds that use harmful chemicals in the bags' nonstick lining. Instead, buy organic popcorn kernels and pop them in a microwave using an ordinary paper bag, or do it the old-fashioned way on the stovetop. Organic is important, as about 40 percent of the corn grown in the United States is genetically modified (GM) to withstand higher doses of pesticides. Some studies are starting to link GM foods to allergies and other health problems.

Though it's technically a seed and not a grain, this ancient South American power food is packed with more protein than any other grain, and each uncooked cup of the stuff (about three servings) has 522 milligrams of omega-3 fatty acids. Your family will likely enjoy its light, nutty flavor for a change of pace at the dinner table.
This Arabic grain is a low-carb form of ancient wheat that has up to four times more fiber than brown rice. Freekeh kernels are harvested while they're young and then roasted. They contain more vitamins and minerals, such as immune-boosting selenium, than other grains. Once in your stomach, freekeh acts as a prebiotic, stimulating the growth of healthy bacteria that aid digestion. Look for it in Middle Eastern markets or natural-food stores.

Comments: Haven't fished it much, so I didn't caught a fish on it yet, but I know I will sooner or later. It has a wild action at all speeds. I think it may be good in dirty water too. It's great in the weeds, trees and to fish like a jig in the rocks. Tackle Tour has a review of it in their "Soft Bodied Swimbait Tackle Drop".
From: Marco: Portugal
Comments: This was my first big swimbait I bought.. I have to say it is a pretty dang good swimbait for the money, excellent swimming action in the tail and a wide wobble. Weighing in at 3/4 oz it doesn't wear your arm out to throw it all day. You can slow roll it for the big lethargic fish or use it as a burning wake bait. Very versatile. Highly recommend it to anyone. Caught 4-5 pounders on it so far. Definitely a quality product by black dog baits!

The group working on a vision for the future of the Chatfield watershed has developed a draft plan and wants the public to weigh in.
"The Chatfield Watershed Plan provides an essential framework for prioritizing and protecting our local natural resources," Casey Davenhill, executive director of the Colorado Watershed Assembly, said in a press release. "It also offers citizens educational information to help adults, kids, pet owners, farmers and others take responsible action to safeguard public health and safety that ultimately affects water quality in all of our communities."
The CWA was established in 1984 by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment in an effort to protect water quality throughout the watershed, which includes parts of Douglas and Jefferson counties. Member agencies include the Audubon Society, Denver Water, a variety of water and sanitation districts, several municipalities, the Denver Urban Water Partnership and many more.
The plan focuses on stream restoration and mitigating the effects of wildfire and erosion. It calls for diverting runoff away from areas polluted by such things as animal waste and deteriorating septic systems, in an effort to protect the groundwater and the South Platte River south of Chatfield Reservoir.
"In addition to its primary purpose of flood control, (Chatfield) serves as one of many water-supply reservoirs for the City of Denver and other Front Range communities, which is why it's essential for all citizens to understand how human, animal and recreational activities affect water quality and the natural ecosystems that co-exist with one another," said Julie Vlier, supervising engineer at Tetra Tech, the firm that conducted the study for CWA. "The inclusive public process in which the watershed plan has been carefully developed focuses on the practical actions that will lead to significant improvements to water quality in this vital watershed."
CWA will accept public comments through January, then organize them in time for a final public meeting in the spring. It can be viewed at www.chatfieldwatershedauthority.org; click on "Watershed Plan," then "Plan Documentation." Send comments to firstname.lastname@example.com.
This plan is entirely separate from the pending Chatfield reallocation project, the final draft of which was released in September. It can be viewed at www.chatfieldstudy.org.

Who really cooks a whole chicken anymore? Most mamas I know toss a frozen box-o-nuggets in the oven and call it dinner. Okay, I totally did that before autism and gluten entered my vocabulary.
So the secret's out. Easiest. Dinner. Ever
It's the start of liquid gold. Put it in the freezer until we are ready for homemade stock day.
Much love,

"Not impressed. Too slippery on all surfaces. I'd stay away."

"I wasnt super impressed by the packaging that it came in. The box was beat up but it was shipped in an envelope so. The material of the boot was nice but it kinda squeezed the sides of my foot. You could just wear them in and they'd be fine though. But when i got them there were skratches on them and black marks on one of them. If you have stickish legs I would not get these. The calf part of the boot stuck out dramitically on me. I plan on returning them and finding a different pair that doesnt have such a wide calf."

Look much more expensive
"These look like really expensive shoes, but I don't think the fit is perfect. I range between a 5.5 and a 6 and I bought the 6 because the reviews said they run narrow. The thing is they seem to run long, longer than most of my 6's. Now I have boots I LOVE that fit perfect width wise (maybe a little snug but they will stretch) and have quite a bit of give in the heels. I'm worried if I switch to a 5.5 they will be too snug but I don't want blisters either. I haven't decided if I want to try a 5.5 because they aren't in the store by me. I think a 5.5 wide might be perfect in these."

On June 10, Millsite State Park in partnership with the Division of Wildlife Resources and Emery County will host a special kids fishing event. On June 10, both children and adults may fish without a license. The park entrance fee is $5 per vehicle for up to eight occupants or $3 per vehicle for senior citizens (62 or older). The restaurant at the Millsite golf course will cook any cleaned fish from noon until 3 p.m. free of charge. The restaurant will also serve off the menu.
Kids under 14 may take part in knot-tying clinics and a casting competition that will begin at 8 a.m. and last until the onset of a prize drawing that will be held at 10 a.m. Participants must be registered prior to the beginning of the drawing to be eligible for prizes. Typically, every child wins some form of fishing tackle (rods, reels, tackle kits, lures, or baits). Prizes are being sponsored or have been furnished by a variety of businesses, clubs and organizations, including the Shakespeare Fishing Tackle Co., Kiwanas Club, Joy Mining, Sportsmen's Warehouse, Emery County and the DWR.
Children who don't have their own fishing tackle may borrow rods and reels from the DWR for use during the day. Bait, hooks and sinkers will also be available for event participants.
Fishing equipment needs to be returned by 2 p.m., but fishing fun continues the entire day. There is no charge for the event. The general public is encouraged to participate.
DWR personnel will run a tackle and information station between the hours of 8 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. They will sponsor several events, including a casting competition at 9 a.m., where winners in each age class will receive prizes. The biggest event--the prize drawing--follows at 10 a.m. Fishing fun continues throughout the day. DWR biologists will be on-hand from 8 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. to help kids and parents become better anglers and catch more fish.
Millsite State Park is located in Ferron Canyon, about 5 miles west of the town of Ferron. Take the kids and enjoy some free fishing fun for the whole family. Circle June 10 on the calendar, and plan to join us for the festivities. For more information, contact Brent Stettler at 435-636-0266 or email@example.com.

Nice Bag
"Definitely happy with this purchase"

Huh....well okay
"1. I really like this purse, I ordered the blue OMG so beautiful, It will carry everything...big enough for a planner or average tablet, The outside pockets can carry your phone for ease. It is a well made purse. 2) This is advertised as a cross body bag - it seems a bit of an afterthought by the designer. The purse has two leather straps that are short enough so it can be carried on one arm or a shoulder. These straps are outside the top zipper and are well made - bulky. Not removeable. There is a cloth strap that is longer and that can be used as the cross body strap. I guess the purse can be used either way. It looks super clunky as a cross body bag with all of the handles/straps. I wish the shorter handles were removable and the longer strap was leather. That is what I wanted. I do love this purse a lot and will probably keep it because it is very nice. Just be warned about the straps. I will wear it over one shoulder and keep the other strap in the bag."

"I've been using Litepanels for about four years now," says Caso. "They are small, compact, and have a lot of punch. They fit into places that other lights of equivalent luminance can't fit. I have two 1x1 panels and two bricks on The Defenders, and they are working all the time."
The Defenders is not your staid, courtroom bound legal series. The characters are bigger than life – and that includes the city of Las Vegas and the casinos that are such a big fabric of the town. Caso and company may be shooting flamboyant locations with a lot of flash, but he is always in need of that extra kick or flattering light. "That's where Litepanels are so important," he says. "I can get a soft source out of small corners or inside a car. Litepanels are always my saving grace.
"I remember when we were shooting Trauma and we were often in a green screen process helicopter sequences," he recalls. "Litepanels fit easily in those hard-to-fit areas in the helicopter to provide small source lighting. It worked quite well."

Clawson city held their monthly council meeting. The council approved the last meeting minutes and voted to pay the bills. Councilwoman Casey Reid wants to look into putting batting cages in the park. She and Councilman Jerry Price will look into the cost and maintenance of the cages. Reid also reported, when the tables and chairs are loaned out from the town hall someone needs to account for them. If someone rents the town hall the tables and chairs can't be used during that time for another event.
Councilman Larry Gregersen reported he sent back the emergency plan. The cemetery will be watered one more time.
Councilman Jerry Price reported there is $4,000 left in the recreation fund. At the end of this year another $2,000 will be left over and next year it is anticipated the city will receive another $2,000. The recreation money will be used for a baseball/softball field. The money should be enough for grass and a backstop. It is unknown how much fencing will cost. The city will also have to consider the cost of maintenance and lawn mowing.
Councilman Dean Allen reported a property in Clawson is going to be cleaned. A tree in the city is impeding drivers vision at a stop sign. A tree trimming service will be contacted to perform the work, due to the height of the tree.
The harvest celebration was sparsely attended, possibly due to conflicting events. The council will try again next year. The Halloween hay ride will still take place on Oct. 31 at 4:30 p.m. To ensure the safety of everyone involved it is important to keep all off the trailers together, depart at the same time and travel in one direction. On Dec. 3 Santa will be at the town hall.
