DELTA — For more than a decade, a Utah company has been touting its “revolutionary” low-cost solar technology, with projects announced in four states. But those four projects have yet to generate any significant power, despite detailed announcements and news stories about planned multimillion-dollar solar plants. The failure to produce any significant solar energy has several people asking questions about the company’s proposals and the technology itself, and it has some officials wondering if the man behind the effort is trying to generate interest — and money — at the expense of a community’s trust. In Millard County, officials there say they are frustrated over their dealings with Neldon Johnson and his company International Automated Systems (IAUS) because of his failure to obtain necessary permits and licenses associated with his solar project, despite demanding them since 2011. “(Johnson) has really been quite hostile with us,” said Millard County Commissioner Daron Smith. The claims of a power-producing solar installation generate buzz about its investment potential, he said, but the claims leave county officials confused about what is happening in their own community. Johnson is founder, CEO and president of IAUS, which has partnered with at least four companies in promising breakthrough technology that will change the renewable energy market. He has built several tall solar towers west of Delta near Hinckley. But county officials say little is known about those towers. Despite Johnson’s claims of revolutionary technology, representatives of the Utah state energy office and the national Solar Energy Industries Association said they are unfamiliar with the technology and don’t know how or whether it works. In the past, IAUS and Johnson have caught the attention of federal regulatory officials because of claims he made about other kinds of technology that never came to

verything about the 2015 Subaru WRX is tight.
Admittedly, the WRX (and the associated hyper, harder WRX STI) account for only 4 percent of Subaru’s sales. Even with Subaru’s phenomenal sales boom this year, selling more cars than ever in the company’s history — more than 420,000, more even than much bigger Volkswagen or BMW — that’s a small amount. Only 16,000 in the states to be exact. It gets smaller still. Until this year, new WRX’s came only with a manual transmission, which alienates a large number of new car buyers who can’t row their own gears. Roughly 85 percent of new cars today are autos, and for good reason: younger drivers look at the third pedal like a third nipple. What’s it do? Not done yet: The WRX is all-wheel drive, right out of the box. Automotive purists looking for sporty cars insist on rear-wheel drive only like it were a genetic predisposition. What we’re looking at here was the automotive equivalent of a left-handed, foreign, experimental ďŹ lm with no subtitles. Where’d the audience go?
DILIGENT PREPARATIONS BY A CONFERENCE CHOIR
That type of stuff is great for bragging rights, but better if you can make it understandable for the rest of us. To that end the 2015 Subaru WRX tinkered a bit with the original formula. Gone (for this year, at least) is the wagon. Instead, you can have an automatic — a CVT, no less. And the name “Imprezaâ€? was dropped from its proper name. Just call it the WRX, as if you called it anything other. Think Subaru let the WRX down then by playing fast and loose with the rules? Not so much. Tight just got tighter. Here’s what I mean. First, even though the WRX dropped the Impreza moniker, it’s in name only. The car is still easily identiďŹ able as a descendant of the Impreza platform. Even though the WRX shares no common sheet metal with the Impreza, its heritage is unmistakable. The best of the Impreza still made it through to the WRX. In particular, that means the tighter feel of the Impreza’s skeleton. Let’s talk
What’s the
numbers: torsional rigidity is up 40 percent over the outgoing WRX and body rigidity is up 30 percent. Lateral stiffness in front is also up 14 percent. Asleep yet? Front and rear springs have been stiffened 39 percent and 60 percent respectively. Whew, that was a lot. Although the base model Impreza was certainly

worthwhile, the naturally aspirated 2.0-liter engine in the Impreza had a habit of leaving some unanswered questions.

DELTA — For more than a decade, a Utah company has been touting its “revolutionary” low-cost solar technology, with projects announced in four states. But those four projects have yet to generate any significant power, despite detailed announcements and news stories about planned multimillion-dollar solar plants. The failure to produce any significant solar energy has several people asking questions about the company’s proposals and the technology itself, and it has some officials wondering if the man behind the effort is trying to generate interest — and money — at the expense of a community’s trust. In Millard County, officials there say they are frustrated over their dealings with Neldon Johnson and his company International Automated Systems (IAUS) because of his failure to obtain necessary permits and licenses associated with his solar project, despite demanding them since 2011. “(Johnson) has really been quite hostile with us,” said Millard County Commissioner Daron Smith.

In 1976, New Jersey was the second state after Nevada to legalize casino gambling. Back then, 12 states had lotteries. Today, only two states — Hawaii and Utah — do not have some form of legalized Les Bernal gambling. Now the cutting edge is online casino gaming, embraced as a painless revenue source by ailing state governments. Nevada and New Jersey are again leading the charge, joined by Delaware.

Equipment in and on top of two trailers at Salt Lake City’s Hawthorne Elementary School constantly draws air through filters and sensors, recording levels of several unhealthy pollutants. Other instruments measure wind, temperature, humidity and visibility. Some
record a continuous flow of data, while others take snapshots lasting an hour or a day. This station is a critical nerve center in Utah’s air quality monitoring network that sheds light on our wintertime nightmare, the soup of fine particulate matter, or PM2.5, that pools in urban valley bowls. “One trailer holds research equipment that is trying to answer the questions why do we have air pollution and what can we do to eliminate
it,” said Bo Call, who supervises the Utah Division of Air Quality’s 26-station monitoring program. “The stuff in the other trailer is monitoring what current pollution levels are.” Why do we have such dirty air and what can we do about it?

Why do Utah’s urban valleys have such dirty air? Particulate pollution harms public health, quality of life and economic growth. But determining where it comes from and how to reduce it is proving surprisingly complex for Utah regulators and scientists.
