Torrey Christmas Interfaith Program Returns in 2021 RHA of Utah with an Evening of Music Celebrating "The Meaning of Christmas" Prepares for Future Opportunities, Honors Advocates

ST. GEORGE - Members of the Rural Health Association of Utah, healthcare professionals, education leaders and government officials from across the state recently met at Dixie State University for the association’s Navigating Beyond the Pandemic: Hope for Rural Health conference.

This year marks the 18th anniversary of the conference as the premier place for convening Utah’s top healthcare professionals to discuss rural challenges and opportunities.

The event uses the resources available to each part of the state to maximize efforts in providing quality healthcare in Utah’s rural and frontier communities. The conference addressed issues related to behavioral health, health of the community and specific health concerns facing rural Utah.

Also during the conference, five rural health advocates and public health professionals received awards for working tirelessly to provide quality healthcare to underrepresented rural communities across Utah.

Dec. 2021 BOULDER - The December 2021 Boulder Town Council meeting began with a discussion of the budget.

More revenue has come in than what was planned for, and, therefore, the town is in great shape financially for the rest of the fiscal year; however, they have been advised by their auditor that they need to move $40,000 from the general fund to the capital projects fund.

A public hearing was opened to discuss changes to the budget. One member of the public stated that the Planning Commission has been working on proposing a water study and asked if excess money could go towards that.

Another member of the public asked if the town currently has anything on the capital improvement list, and that knowing that information would be helpful for providing public comments. It was responded that this will be discussed later in the meeting.

The public hearing was closed. A motion was made and passed to move $40,000 from the general fund to the capital projects fund, which currently has $30,000 in it and will, therefore, have $70,000 total.

ESCALANTE - The World of the Wild, an exhibition of artwork curated from Utah’s Hogle Zoo’s annual art show, will be on display at Escalante High School from November 22 to December 16, 2021. The World of the Wild depicts the wild plants and animals housed at the zoo and that live in nature around us.

The depiction of animals is an ancient practice that dates back to prehistoric times, when migration and hunting patterns were recorded on the walls of caves.

Paintings such as these exist worldwide, such as in the caves of Lascaux, France or

Altamira, Spain. Animal depictions also hold religious or spiritual ties. The ancient Egyptians drew and modeled animals with great care based upon the observation of nature.

In the western United States, the Fremont and Ancestral Puebloan Native Americans drew animal images as a form of spiritual empowerment, and the lamb plays a significant role in the Christian diaspora.

Today, animals are recorded in art for many of these same reasons, and more—as representations of power or influence, records from scientific Art Exhibition Cont'd on page 4

KANAB - Beginning Dec. 14 and throughout the holiday season, the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) Paria River District will support citizen scientists who once again fan out across America to help the National Audubon Society conduct a winter-bird census, commonly called the Christmas Bird Count. For more than a century, this community-based science project has become an annual tradition for many, resulting in valuable scientific data collection for the National Audubon Society, which is later made available to researchers.

BLM staff will help carry on this tradition by coordinating and receiving forms for a Christmas Bird Count in Kanab, Utah, to support the National Audubon Society’s 122nd Christmas Bird Count this year. Nationally, the ChristCont'd on page 2

Dixie National Forest precipitation report as of December 1, 2021.

DIXIE N.F. - This has been a very dry November and despite the first month of the new water year starting out great for precipitation, Dixie National Forest is now at 80% of its 30 year average cumulative precipitation (down from 175% a month ago).

It is now the typical snow season, and there are not many places on the mountain that have snow. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that, averaged across the forest, it is at 6% of its 30 year median snowpack for this time of year.

Panguitch Utah History The Colorful Life of Josiah Rogerson

by Steve Lee

Courtesy Steve Lee

Josiah Rogerson Sr. was a poet, telegraph operator, and reporter during the John D. Lee trials and execution. In 1864, he abandoned his stake in the Panguitch Valley for Parowan, opting to pursue what he called "cupid's wiles."

PANGUITCH - Josiah Rogerson Sr. lived a colorful kind of life. His keen blue eyes observed 85 years' worth of starkly contrasting scenery that served as a vivid backdrop in his memory to the countless historical events and experiences of stirring days on a new frontier.

It's not that Josiah's life was more unique than the people around him; No, his consistency in recording his own honest and straightforward thoughts concerning the world around him is what makes his written contribution so valuable to the historical record.

Family histories state that "He was a strange combination of hardy pioneer frontiersman and cultured man of letters of his much loved native England." A first-generation immigrant, born 1841 in Preston, England, to a Quaker father and a Mormon mother, as a young man Rogerson crossed wind-tossed oceans and snow-covered plains before arriving in Southern Utah in 1858.

As a survivor of the Willie & Martin Handcart Company tragedy, Josiah Rogerson seems to have developed a somber wonder of death's mystery, which found voice in his poetry. He was a poet at heart and wrote extensively with great passion, for he allowed himself to deeply explore and feel the things that caused his heart to ache. The treacherous landscape of love and heartbreak, or "cupid's

wiles," as he was apt to describe it, were another common theme in his poetry.

Although Rogerson did obtain considerable renown for his groundbreaking work as an early telegraph operator and as a reporter during the John D. Lee trials and execution, his journals abound with frustrations concerning goals he had for himself but which he failed to achieve. One such frustration came in the spring of 1864 when Josiah chose to abandon his stake for a homestead in the Panguitch Valley after only two and half months into the endeavor, his 23yr old heart opting instead to pursue "cupid's wiles" once more back in Parowan.

Toward the end of his

long life, Rogerson recorded: "After reading what I have written and recalling a thousand incidents I have not written, the conviction forces itself upon my mind that the Lord does not intend or design me to acquire this world's goods or chattels, except enough to live and get along with, or necessary for life. Every time I tried the hardest to acquire, I got the least."

I wonder if Josiah Rogerson ever ventured to consider, despite his own perceived failings and even 95 years after his death, that a young-ish history nerd from the Panguitch valley could still find solace in the authenticity of his faded words.

"Untitled" by Josiah Rogerson Sr. How swift the moments glide with those Whom distance soon must separate; And how smoothless are the throes Of Parting and how desolate.

The heart doth feel 'ere yet that word, Faintly escaped the lips, - "Goodbye", Then touch'd in sorrow's inmost chord, Affection's dew-drops dim the eye.

Wher'er affection binds the heart And two souls drink the same as one Oh, it is sad for them to part And feel that solemn thruth "Alone", Oft, oft will memory's fancy flee, As lightning's wings to other lands Athwart the bosom of the sea, Where tender tears bath'd parting hands.

Tis sad to view the last faint breath Depart from out the form we love To see the quivering throes of death Unnerve the pulse no more to move; Then pallied hue upon that cheek Bespeaks too true what death hath done; And sorrow's whisper mild and meek, With tears is heard - departed gone.

Boulder Council

brought up a request for an increase in the Zoning Administrator (ZA) pay. The new ZA is April O’Neal. The position is 12 hours per week and includes roles such as approving conditional use permits and building permits and taking applications to the Planning Commission. The pay increase would be from $15 an hour to $18 an hour, based on O’Neals experience in planning. One council member stated that the average wage in town is $11$15, and they don’t think the town should be paying higher wages than what the taxpayers are making. The duties of the ZA and Town Clerk should also be more clearly outlined.

Another council member stated that it is important to keep people, and that this is a tough job that is important and worth $18 an hour. Another stated that town jobs shouldn’t take opportunities from other businesses in town by providing a higher wage. Cox stated that the ZA responsibilities are outlined clearly in the ordinances and that it takes a special skill set to do the job, which O’Neal has. A council member asked if the 12 hours per week are guaranteed or if the hours are as needed, and it was answered that the hours are as needed with 12 as an average. A motion was made and passed to increase the wage.

Four were in favor and one was opposed.

Following this, they discussed what should be on the capital improvements list. Prior to COVID, the town had a single-year list and a five-year list. On the longer term list had been extending the parking lot next to the Town Hall and making improvements to the playground. Helping to fund the hydrologic study with Jones and DeMille Engineering could also be important.

Cox asked if the new mayor, Judy Drain, who will be taking over next month, would give input. Drain stated that she would like to see work on the parking lot occur. Another council member brought up improving the area around the north dumpsters. Another spoke of improving EMT equipment and communication. If the hydrologic study (or anything else) were to be put on the capital improvement list, the council would still have a chance to change their minds later. It was stated that they should make the emergency services their number one priority. Another suggested that getting a few smaller projects done would be a good use of the money.

More discussion will occur on

Page 3 the capital improvements list early next year.

Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance regarding Internal Accessory Dwelling Units (IADUs) were then discussed.

State law now mandates that towns must allow IADUs within the footprint of a house, which does not align with town ordinances. The amendments will allow IADUs consistent with state law and clarify rules concerning External Accessory Dwelling Units, as well.

A public hearing was held. A member of the Planning Commission spoke as a member of the public, stating that while this is a state requirement, these changes will hopefully be beneficial to the town in terms of providing housing. The public hearing closed.

A motion was made and passed to adopt these amendments.

Department reports followed.

Cemetery: There is a fencing issue that will be looked at this month. The flags were put up again on Veterans Day. Planning Commission: At the last meeting, a representative from Cascade Water Resources was present to answer questions about a possible hydrologic study. It was suggested that Boulder Farmstead water increase the monitoring of their wells and that the town begin to take preliminary steps to gather information about aquifer conditions, which will help them to apply for grants. Cox added that the town has received money that could possibly be used for the study, and more research will be done to find out if this is the case. There was also discussion on private and public roads within amendments to the subdivision ordinance.

Roads: The sign for the cemetery will be put up.

Fire Department: Work has been done on the fire truck, and bills will be coming in for repairs and towing. About ten firefighters will take part in Winter Fire School. They are applying for a $5,000 grant and ask that the town will cover the remaining cost, as they have done in the past.

EMT: An EMT who

took the course paid for by the town did not complete the national EMT test in November as planned. There is an upcoming EMT training in Tropic. A meeting between the town and EMTs should take place to discuss recruiting strategies and agreements that can be put in place for people who receive funding from the town for EMT training. It’s possible that Wayne County requires EMTs to sign something stating that they will commit for two years, and more should be found out about this.

Library: The library remains open on Saturdays from 11-1. It will be closed on Christmas.

Art Council: They are planning for their 2022 events.

Schools: Continued positive cases of COVID-19 have been affecting the district.

There have been no positive cases at Boulder Elementary School since September.

Mayor: This will be Cox’s last meeting. Cox thanked the council, stated his pride in what they have accomplished, and thanked other current and past staff including April O’Neal, Michala Alldredge, Corry Johnson, Judi Davis, and Peg Smith.

He also extended a thank you to all the many town volunteers.

A public comment period followed. A link has been posted on the town website to a video training led by American Legal, the company that codified the ordinances, about how to utilize the new codification system. American Legal has stated that the codification is as much for public use as town use, and they are willing to help anyone who needs it. Those who need help are welcome to contact American Legal or Planning Commission Secretary Peg Smith.

Comments were made thanking Cox for his time as Mayor, commending him for his service to the community, his organization, clear communication, and effectiveness in working within a diverse community with many needs.

The Boulder Town Council meets on the first Thursday of each month at 7 p.m.

PHS Sports Sidelines

by Mack Oetting

Panguitch winter sports start off strong with Bobcats winning in wrestling and basketball

Oh, what a week it was for all Bobcat sports. All three teams came away winners. The wins started with the tough guy wrestlers in their annual early meet with 18 schools. The Cats were the winner—big time—with seven wrestlers in the finals. It was in 1997 that the Cats last won their event.

It is the first meet of the year, and any class size can enter.

This is a long two day event and most wrestlers had five matches. This is going to be a great year for the tough guys, and with all of the new freshmen on the team, it is going to be a dynasty. Coach Marshall has a great team of coaches that used to wrestle, and that really helps. Along with a Pee Wee league, they are set for a long time. As usual, the wrestlers jam a lot of matches in two months. Next week on 7th, they are at Parowan; on the 8th, @ Richfield; the 10 & 11th, the Desert Hills tournament; the 14th, North Sevier, the 16th, Beaver; and they finish off the year on Dec. 17-18 at the Manti Tournament. That wears me out just typing out their schedule.

The boys basketball team came away with a couple of victories. Wednesday night, they played down at the Valley Buffaloes in a game that was a lot closer than it should have been. They outscored the Buffaloes in the last quarter, 15 to

8, to pull out a 48 to 43 victory.

Kyler Bennett had 23 points to lead all scorers. I think this game really woke the Cats up because when Wayne showed up, the Cats really took it to them, winning 60 to 18. Klyn Fullmer had a game high of 15, Tucker Chappell chipped in 13, and Kyler Bennett, who had a number of blocked shots, finished with 10. There aren't any home games next week. On the 8th, they go over to Parowan for a game, and then, they play two games up at Richfield. On the 10th, its Wendover, and follow that up with a game against Tabiona on the 11th. Next week, they go over to Wayne on the 16th, and a final game of the year will be here on the 18th against Tintic @ 2:30 and 5:30.

The Lady Cats lost their first game, but have had nothing but wins since. The ladies went over to 2A Parowan. We missed it, but I heard it was

exciting, with scores changing hands many times. The Cats came out on top, 42 to 39. This was the second 2A team the Cats had beaten in a week. Kyan Orton led all scorers with 14. Then on Saturday night, Valley came to visit, and the Cats prevailed over them, 48 to 36. Kyan Orton was high scorer with 13, and a threesome of Abbie Holman, Hailee Eyre and Adlelaide Englestead all finished with nine points. You have to hand it to the Valley team; they only have eight players and have to play in the JV game also. They could be tough at state only having to play one game. The ladies have two games away this week against Kanab on Dec. 8th, and on the 10th, there is the Valley Tournament. Next week, the Wayne Badgers come to town on the 15th.

They are also playing Tintic on Saturday in a double header with the boys team.

Young, Single, and in Need of an Estate Plan

by Jeffery J. McKenna Remember that great episode of "Friends" where Ross convinces Rachel, Phoebe and the others to sit down and write their wills and designate durable power of attorney in the event something should happen to them?

Of course you don't; it never happened. The fact is, singles don't bother with estate planning. For sure, part of the joy of being single is the nostrings-attached lifestyle. The term "estate planning" sounds like something only grandparents do.

Not to be overly grim, but singles can face the inevitable as much as anyone else.

In fact, many estate planning attorneys believe that singles need it more. In a marriage, it is pretty much assumed that a spouse, even in the absence of any planning, is going to be the person that the court is going to appoint as the guardian over your personal and health care decisions and conservator over your financial matters. But if you're single, who is it going to be? If you're single, you need to appoint the people to make your personal, health care and financial decisions or the court will decide, and it may not be the party you would want.

Consider these scenarios. If you're single without kids and you die without a will ("intestate"), your assets

would likely flow to your next of kin in this order: surviving parents, siblings, nieces and nephews. If you are divorced with children, your assets would likely go to your children as next of kin, but if something happen to them, your assets could wind up with your ex-spouse as their next of kin. That's right! If you don't specify otherwise, your ex-spouse (and his or her new spouse) could get your money when you die. Is that OK with you?

Many singles consider estate planning to be too expensive. Most singles figure they don't have much money, and they usually don't do estate planning. But often they find they have more assets than they think. Add up assets to get a real awakening to your financial situation. Singles often have a life insurance policy through an employer, perhaps a nominal retirement account fed by their paychecks, equity if they own a home, and often assorted accidental death benefits from credit cards. Once their estate has been settled, a parent, a sibling, a niece or nephew will most likely end up with this modest windfall.

We plan in order to designate who will be responsible for our health care and financial decisions when we are no longer able to do so ourselves.

You may have every intention of leaving your nephew your Jimi Hendrix autographed guitar, but without a will or other estate planning vehicle, the court may sell it off in an estate sale so the money can be distributed.

What is the solution to most of these issues? Make a goal to get your affairs in order. I would be dishonest if I said, “Estate planning is fun.”

However, I have seen over and over the peace of mind that comes when it is completed.

In the end, the peace of mind far outweighs the worry of not having a plan.

When applying for another position and asked the reason for leaving his previous job, he replied, "The climate just didn't agree with me."

My sister asked an elderly friend of hers, recently widowed, what she'd do now for transportation since she didn't know how to drive.

O bituaries Samuel Pollock

TROPIC - Samuel Lyle Pollock, 79, passed away November 27, 2021 from Alzheimer's disease in Tropic, Utah. He was able to come home the day before his passing and was surrounded by his children and grandchildren who love him dearly.

Sam was born September 29, 1942 in Ogden, Utah to Samuel Herman and Zora Bell Roundy Pollock.

Sam was raised in rural Tropic along with a sister and four brothers. The scenery around Sam taught him to love God, hunting, and fishing. Many memories find Sam with his family, friends, and complete strangers, hunting, fishing, golfing, fossil hunting, rock hounding, playing a hand of cards, polishing petrified wood, and telling great stories.

Sam was known locally as a master fisherman.

He turned everything into a competitive game. Most will remember his rock throwing contests that had to be underhanded. He was quick witted, with a rhyme on the tip of his tongue or a whistle.

Sam was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Prior to his mission in the Eastern States Mission, New York Area, from 1963-1965, he attended Southern Utah State College. When Sam returned home from New York, he studied at Brigham Young University and attended law school at the University of Utah.

Sam married the girl voted "prettiest smile" at Northwest College. The minute he saw her, he knew she was the one. Sam and Donna LaRae Oleson were married in the Salt Lake Temple on February 10, 1967. They have nine children together, 37 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren and one more on the way. Six weeks after their wedding, Sam was drafted to serve the United States of America as a soldier in the Vietnam war. He entered basic training on April 26, 1967. Sam advanced to the rank of staff sergeant and became a decorated Army veteran being the recipient of two silver stars, one bronze star, and many others.

After the war, Sam recognized that there was a need to help troubled and disabled veterans. He was instrumental in securing proper benefits for veterans across America. He also produced music albums that restored honor and healing to those who served.

Sam was passionate about the gospel of Jesus Christ and helped to engineer a successful pattern of ministering that helped less-active members come back to the gospel. Sam once said, "The greatest joy outside of my time with my family, was my time helping the less active members come back unto Christ."

Sam is preceded in death by his wife Donna LaRae; parents; parents-in-law, John and Madeline Oleson; brothers: Gail and Garry Don Pollock; sisters-in-law: DyAnn Chamberlain Pollock and Cheryl Lee Oleson Stott; brother-in-law, Robert Stott; and nephew Matthew Weekes.

Sam is survived by his children: Sam (Rebecca) Pollock, Clint (Amy) Pollock, Kenny Pollock, Dana (Tony) Preator, Kelli (Mike) Aagard, Nick (Hayley) Pollock, Megan (Damon) Brinkerhoff, Steven (Alyssa) Pollock, David (Taylor) Pollock; 37 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren; sister, Olene (Dale) Lefevre; brothers: Cray (Brenda) Pollock and Geff (Linda) Pollock; brother-in-law John (Janis) Oleson; sister-in-law, Francie (Ken) Weekes.

Funeral services were held Thursday, December 2, 2021 in the Tropic Ward Chapel at 11:00 a.m., where a viewing was held from 9:00-10:30 a.m. Internment was at the Tropic Cemetery with military honors by the Bryce Valley American Legion Post #18 and Utah Honor Guard. Live streaming of the services and online guestbook could be found at www.maglebymortuary.com under Sam’s obituary. Funeral Directors: Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti.

The family wishes to thank Southern Utah Veteran’s Home in Ivins for their loving care of our dad. Also to the Garfield County EMT service for bringing him home.

FYI PanguItch

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com It was another beautiful week in paradise, however, the weather channel that we watch promises some winter weather this week. December is supposed to be our wettest month of the year. We have less than 15 days of fall left, and winter promises to have longer daylight hours at 2 minutes each day. I don’t like the sun going down at 5:00 or the cold temperatures that go along with it.

The warm weather sure paid off on Saturday, with Santa coming to the Social Hall. The lines were down to the Drug Store parking lot all morning long. We had a record amount of kids this year. Usually, Santa is through by 11:00, but he finished up about noon. This was just in time for the City to set up for the merchant drawing. No one seemed to be bothered by the wait, and a lot of the parents got some time to visit with their friends. Many thanks to all of those that helped with the take down after Santa had left. All these kids will mean job security for all the teachers in our school. It was a good time for all, and the kids were delighted to get to meet Santa here in Panguitch.

Claudia Crump makes a Christmas quilt for a Sub for Santa fundraiser. It was won by someone in town that has plans to gift it, so I won’t tell you who won, other than the fact that it gets to stay in Panguitch. Thanks, Claudia, for all you do.

This Thursday, the Three Wards Relief Society of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-day Saints, will be having their annual Christmas party. It will be held at the Stake Center at 6:00, and everyone is invited.

We have one more Sub for Santa fundraiser, and it will be the Annual Christmas Home tour. Mandy Soper volunteered to head this fundraiser, and she has five great houses on the tour. Look for the advertisements for the homes.

A special thanks also to the home owners. This is a lot of work! If many people came to your house checking it out and enjoying your Christmas decorations, you would be a bit stressed out. However, everyone enjoys the home tours so much that the home tours have become a Christmas fundraiser tradition, and the fun exceeds the great effort.

On Monday the 13th at the Triple C Arena, there will be a fundraiser for the Blevins family, and it will be at 5:30.

There will be a lasagna dinner, a silent auction, and the fireFfighters will have their big wheel with a grand prize

of a rifle. Their youngest daughter has bone cancer. She is why her classmates on the basketball boy team shaved their heads. So come on out and show the world why Panguitch is the greatest place to live.

The college football season is over, and all three of our major universities are going to bowl games. The top four schools are (#1) Alabama, which will play (#4) Cincinnati, and (#2) Michigan will play (#3) Georgia. They will be playing for the National Championship sometime in January. BYU is in the top ten, and it should be a real good bowl game. (There are 35 bowl games.) Utah State won their conference and also will be getting a bowl bid. The biggest winner in the State was Utah University.

They beat (#10) Oregon and won the Pacific 12 conference and are going to the granddaddy bowl of them all—the Rose Bowl on January 1st.

The City will again be hosting a New Year’s Party at the Triple C Arena on Friday the 31st. It will be a fun evening with food, games, music and bingo. This is usually over by nine. Becky Henrie will be hosting a New Year’s Party at the Social Hall for all of those folks that would like to dance and bring in the New Year with their friends.

Becky’s party will go on after the City’s gathering.

I find it interesting that NASA has launched a rocket to see if hitting an asteroid 6 million miles away could alter its course. Many scientists feel that a large asteroid hit the earth and killed off the dinosaurs. It would be something if this works, and it would give one less thing to worry about.

The war on cancer turns 50. Treatments have improved and our understanding of the disease has deepened. Longer lives mean more of us will still be touched by a cancer diagnosis. President Richard Nixon launched the war on cancer in Dec. 1971. The same kind of concentrated effort that split the atom and took man to the moon should be turned toward conquering this dread disease, he said.

50 years and $100 billion dollars later, we are making great gains from this dreaded disease. (The death rate is down more than 25%). Yet cancer remains the number one killer of Hispanic and Asian Americans, women in their 50s, and everyone in the ages of 60 to 80. Mammograms, colonoscopies and other screenings are finding common cancers in their ear-

ly stages more often with the survival odds being as high as 99%.

The root of all cancers is cells that mutate and grow uncontrollably. How this happens, effects it has and how to treat it vary enormously, based on where in the body these cancerous cells occur.

If you were diagnosed with cancer in the early 1970s, your body, cancerous and healthy cells alike, would be bombarded with radiation, sliced apart in major surgeries and deluged with megadoses of highly toxic chemotherapy.

And if you survived all this, you were given a 50-50 chance to live another five years.

Ten years ago, chemotherapy was the only treatment for most patients with advanced cancer. Now, there’s been a revolution in cancer treatment. Immunotherapies and targeted therapies work differently in different ways.

Immunotherapies harness the immune system to fight cancer. Targeted therapies zero in on molecules in a cancer, often stalling growth.

These are common cancers and their progress, with the first year being 1971: Prostate Cancer 66% and 2013 98%; Lung cancer 11.5%, now 22.1%;. Leukemia 33.4%, now 67%; Colorectal cancer 48%, now 66%; Melanoma 81%, now 95%; Breast cancer 75%, now 91%; and Pancreatic cancer 3.1%, now 12%. All of the second scores were from 2013. I have prostate cancer, and I have lost seven or eight

firefighter brothers to this disease, and 15 others had their prostate removed. Now, I get a shot twice a year, and it is working. It lowered my PSA from 9 down to .01. Pat has had breast cancer and through surgery and chemo, all is well now over seven years later.

One in five cancer deaths in the U.S. are attributable to lung cancer and, like COVID, is preventable, so stop smoking. Another friend of mine, who was always overweight, started to lose weight, thinking that after all those years he hit on the right diet. But after losing 50#, he went to the doctor, and he had cancer of the pancreas, which is deadly because it doesn’t show any symptoms. In 2018, it is estimated that 459 thousand people are living with leukemia.

Often chemotherapy is the best option, and now, they mix other drugs together to attack cancer cells on several vulnerable fronts at once.

Cancer caught early enough is always curable. So get your annual mammogram, your PSA testing and colonoscopies after 50 and have an annual doctor’s visit.

We are winning the war on cancer, but understanding cancer will take 1,000 years.

(From the AARP bulletin November.)

Whatever you would like to accomplish in your life, please, do it quickly. Don’t put things off too long!! Life goes by too quickly.

December 13 - December 19

by John Mosley The Sky Report is presented as a public service by the Stellar Vista Observatory, a nonprofit organization based in Kanab, Utah, which provides opportunities for people to observe, appreciate, and comprehend our starry night sky. Additional information is at www.stellarvistaobservatory.org. Send questions and comments to John@StargazingAdventures.org.

Graphic Created with SkySafariAstronomy.com

The phase of Venus as seen through a small telescope December 13 through 29.

During the next two weeks something dramatic happens in the sky: Venus, which has been the reliable and brilliant “Evening Star,” disappears. The four diagrams posted last week show what you’ll see. Each night, Venus is significantly lower at the same time than the night before, and it sets earlier. On the 13th, it’s conspicuous in the southwest in evening twilight; on the 20th, it’s a bit lower at the same time; on the 27th, it’s a lot lower; and

by January 3rd, it’s gone. Begin watching this week, and check it every night or two.

There is motion and change in the sky, and you can see it if you have a bit of patience.

As a friend said, “every night is a new show, and we have front row seats.”

What’s happening is that Venus’ orbit lies inside ours, and Venus is presently catching up to and passing the earth. When Venus is to the left of the sun, as it is now, it’s approaching us, and when to the right of the sun, as it

will be in January, it’s moving away. Stand looking at Venus, imagine where the sun is (below the horizon), and visualize Venus moving on a circular orbit from left to right, toward us, past us, and then away.

At the same time, its phase, as seen through almost any telescope, decreases, as it moves more nearly in line with the sun. It’s a thin crescent, becoming thinner by the night. Find a friend with a telescope and beg a look.

Jupiter and Saturn remain where they have been, except that the earth’s motion around the sun causes them to set a half-hour earlier each week, so they’ll slowly slip behind the sun next month.

The year’s best meteor shower—the Geminids— peaks on Tuesday morning, the 14th. The best strategy is to set your alarm for moonset, about 3 a.m., when the sky becomes dark, bundle up warmer than you think you’ll need to, find a place with a wide view of the sky, and look up. Meteors will appear to radiate from nearly

overhead but will appear all over the sky. The shower actually lasts more than a week, but bright moonlight will be a huge problem until moonset.

Under ideal conditions, you might see one meteor a minute. "Uncle" Google will give details: search for “Geminid meteors.”

Skywatchers with binoculars or a small telescope might, also, enjoy looking for this comet, which is briefly appearing in the morning sky.

All members of the public are invited to attend and participate.

DATED this 2nd day of December, 2021. /s/ Kelsey Brinkerhoff, Town Clerk Published in the Wayne & Garfield County Insider on DECEMBER 9 & 16, 2021 NOTICE OF BONDS TO BE ISSUED BICKNELL TOWN PUBLIC NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on December 2, 2021, the Mayor and Town Council of Bicknell Town (the "Issuer"), adopted a resolution (the “Resolution”) declaring its intention to issue its Street Improvement Revenue Bonds (the “Bonds”) pursuant to the Utah Local Government Bonding Act, Title 11, Chapter 14, Utah Code Annotated 1953, as amended.

The Issuer intends to issue the Bonds in the principal amount of not to exceed $400,000, to bear interest at a rate not to exceed 2.0% per annum, to mature in not to more than 10 years from their date or dates, and to be sold at a price not less than 100% of the total principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest to the date of delivery. The Bonds will specify that any installment of principal and interest on the Bonds which shall not be paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of 18% per annum from the due date thereof until paid.

The Issuer intends to issue the Bonds for the purpose of (i) financing all or a portion of the cost of constructing street improvements, including pothole repair and the installation of chip and seal in designated locations, together with all related work and improvements; and (ii) paying costs of issuing the Bonds.

If the value of the non-Federal land exceeds the value of the Federal land, the values will be equalized by removing non-Federal land from the exchange or through a cash equalization payment made to the State. If the value of the Federal land exceeds the value of the non-Federal land, the values will be equalized by the State conveying certain state trust lands located within wilderness areas or national conservation areas in Washington County, Utah to the United States. If any lands are eliminated based on further analysis, a revised map showing the final exchange parcels will be available for inspection at least 30 days prior to title closing. Subject to valid existing rights, the above-described Federal lands were segregated on the Master Title Plats from mineral location, entry, and patent under the mining laws effective March 12, 2019.

The Federal and non-Federal lands and interests would be conveyed subject to valid and existing rights and encumbrances of record. Subject to limitations prescribed by law and regulation, a holder of any right-of-way on the Federal lands may be given the opportunity to amend the right-of-way for conversion to a new term, including perpetuity, if applicable, or to an easement prior to the issuance of a Federal patent or quit claim deed.

In accordance with Section 2(a)(2)(ii) of Executive Order 11988, notice is hereby given that portions of the Federal lands may be located within floodplains or to contain wetlands. The effects of conveyance of these parcels, including the potential need for restrictions of future uses under Federal, State, or local regulations, will be evaluated in the environmental analysis for the exchange.

The exchange parcels are depicted on the map titled “Overview of Utah Proposals—S.47, Natural Resource Management Act’, dated February 28, 2019.

Published in the Wayne & Garfield County Insider on DECEMBER 2 & 9, 2021 PUBLIC NOTICE GARKANE ENERGY COOPERATIVE Garkane Energy Cooperative held a public hearing on Monday, October 25th, 2021 to discuss a proposed rate adjustment brought upon by wholesale power increases by Deseret Power, Garkane’s power supplier.

The Board of Directors received and reviewed comments from nearly 500 members and weighed them very heavily when deciding how to proceed with the proposed rate adjustment. After much discussion, the proposal to socialize the Twin Cities $370,000 facilities charge among all Garkane members was not accepted. Instead, a proposal was voted on and approved for all residential Utah consumers to receive an increase of 5.5%, which was a few percentage points lower than what it would have been under the Twin Cities parity proposal. Other rate classes also saw minor increases. Although the Board decided not to lower the Twin Cities rates at this time, they also voted not to increase residential rates to the Twin Cities either, keeping their rates flat, while the rest of the membership saw a slight bump.

The rate adjustments will take effect on January 1, 2022, and Garkane consumers will see the adjustments show up on their February billing statement. A list of all approved rate changes can be found under the "Rates" tab of the www.garkaneenergy.com website.
