As I was starting to compile tomato and peach recipes for a "Make the Most of Late-Summer Produce" menu, I couldn't escape the Robyn thumping in my ears. Next thought: can I just write about Robyn instead? Can she somehow be food-related? "Ja" (that's "yes" in Swedish) is the answer*.
* Alright, this is a huge stretch. I apologize to any readers who have not heard of or listened to Robyn before. You may want to click away now.
Robyn and I, as I'm sure many other millennial ladies can relate, go way back to the 1990s during the Robyn Is Here days. Anyone else obsessed with the Swedish pop star? Can't go a day without listening to her on repeat? There have been a couple Robyn-themed dance parties popping up around Brooklyn. Even the Wall Street Journal was there.
But you need not go any further than your living room for a Robyn-charged dance party. Here's a menu to fuel the energy necessary for jumping in circles, bouncing all over, and whipping your platinum-blonde hair back and forth.
We Dance to the Beet Salad
Beets and citrus are a classic combination, just like Robyn and asymmetrical hair. This salad combines grapefruit, orange, roasted beets, a bit of arugula for some peppery kick, nuts and a vinaigrette made with sherry vinegar, shallots, and walnut oil.
Gravlax is a traditional Swedish salmon preparation, and it seemed only right to honor Robyn's scandinavian heritage. In this recipe, jasmine and green tea replace the more common dill, making for a slightly smoky flavor.
Stars 4-Ever Sangria
While listening to Stars 4-Ever, sip on this fruity sangria. It's somewhere between a spiked lemonade and a sangria, complete with a starfruit slice floating around.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
East Carbon City recently received four grants totaling more than $300,000.
According to Mayor Orlando LaFontaine, three of the grants came as part of the United States Department of Agriculture's rural development program.
"We received three separate grants at just over $50,000 a piece," said LaFontaine. "However, due to the low countywide unemployment rate we are now being granted at only 50 percent, where we used to receive 100 percent granting from the USDA. I am very grateful for all that the USDA does for our community, my issue is that it is my feeling that the county unemployment rate does not reflect the truth of the employment problem in East Carbon."
LaFontaine reported that the Utah Department of Workforce Services statistics show East Carbon's unemployment rate at six percent, double the county rate that hovers around three percent.
"And that statistic of six percent is also misleading," said LaFontaine. " There are more than a few citizens in East Carbon who are neither on government assistance or drawing unemployment, so they are left out of the equation. It is my estimation that the true unemployment rate in this community could be as high as 10 percent."
Due to the low county unemployment rate the city has matched the grant funding to the tune $100,000. An amount that has put significant strain on the small municipality's budget, according to LaFontaine.
East Carbon plans to use the three grants to fund a variety of projects, including:
The purchase of a backhoe and dump truck.
The replacement of the city's two oldest police vehicles.
And the construction of a public bathroom in the Columbia subdivision of East Carbon.
"The public bathroom in Columbia was put on the priority list because it really is a health issue," said LaFontaine. "Many small children playing at the park have nowhere to use the restroom and you can imagine the problems that can cause in a very small community."
The East Carbon administration came under fire last year from county and city residents for purchasing two Hummer H3 vehicles for the local police department.
East Carbon City plans to do the same thing with the current USDA grant monies.
"We are getting those vehicles for a price comparable to any other SUV and an SUV is required to patrol the terrain in our community. Not only for our city protection, but for the county patrol we do as well," commented LaFontaine.
"People always get on us for buying new police vehicles but what citizens forget is that when our law enforcement officers get in their vehicles it could be a life or death situation. Making sure our police department has more than adequate equipment is a top priority to me and the city council," added the East Carbon mayor.
In addition to the three USDA funding allocations, the city has received a $148,300 grant for a community walking trail to be built in East Carbon and Sunnyside.
"This is a very exciting project for our cities," said LaFontaine. "David Maggio and Doug Hintze have been working very hard to get this project off the ground and we are starting to see some light at the end of the tunnel."
The non-motorized walking trail would begin at East Carbon's Viking Park with a track and then head south along the Grassy Trail Creek through the entire community until it crosses Utah State Highway 123 below the Sunnyside Park. The trail would then make its way through the Sunnyside Park.
"This trail will go a long way to solidifying our two communities, connecting us and making us one. It will also make a starting point for a possible single track mountain biking trail that could go from our community all the way up on top of Bruin Peak," explained LaFontaine.
According to the East Carbon mayor, the walking trail project has a $300,000 budget, which could be increased by $100,000 for additional lighting and seating areas at locations along the trail.
"I approached the county commissioners about partnering with us as they have with Price and Helper. I have not heard from them as of yet, but I am hopeful they will help us with this project," indicated the East Carbon mayor.
LaFontaine reported that the municipality has already received a commitment for more than $70,000 of in-kind labor donation from the East Carbon Development Corporation.
"If our city did not need these grants, we would not be going after them. The truth of the situation is that the loss of our high school and pool was a big hit on this community," said LaFontaine. "I have seen our county make a commitment to the recreational needs of its citizens and I want to do the same for the citizens of our town. I believe that recreation is the key to both growth and crime reduction in this community."

R.A. Dickey is the National League's Pitcher of the Month
Major League Baseball has announced that R.A. Dickey is the National League's Pitcher of the Month for June.
Dickey went 5-0 with a 0.93 ERA in 48 1/3 innings over six starts during June. He allowed six runs, five earned on 21 hits with eight walks and 55 strikeouts.
Dickey leads the Major Leagues with 12 wins, a .923 winning percentage, and a 0.885 WHIP. He leads the National League with three complete games and is tied for the National League lead along with Johan Santana and Matt Cain with two shutouts.
No pitcher in New York has generated this kind of buzz or been so popular since Dwight Gooden between 1984 – 1986. It's almost disappointing when Dickey gives up a run at this point, which is a completely unfair standard to hold for him. He is dominant, entertaining, and fascinating all rolled together. That, along with his story make him the clear choice to start next Tuesday's All-Star Game, and I really hope Tony La Russa and the coaching staff give him the honor.

Did that stop the Giant's from giving Barry Zito seven years? Nope. Boston gave Dice K a six year contract straight out of Japan. Train wreck.
OK, you say "but they were pitchers". Miguel Tejada and Vladimir Guerrero signed SIX year contracts and neither of them ended well. Ken Griffey Jr's nine year contract was considered a "bargain", but it was really a train wreck. Carl Crawford's contract turned into a POS almost immediately after the ink dried.
None of this is hidden away by a sealed court order, it's all public record yet teams - and their ego maniacal owners - manage to make THE VERY SAME IDIOTIC MISTAKES over and over again. Unless Chris Davis is a COMPLETE idiot - and he sure doesn't give that impression - he knows there's an owner out there that is just dying to throw stupid money at him.

LINCOLN — Even now, the portable rental marquee sign sitting in the snow outside the Christ Church Parish House reads, in part, "Christmas joy continues."
"We haven't been able to change it because of the weather, the way it's been," chuckled Rev. Scott Gunn, the Episcopal church's rector for over three years now.
Fact is, neither Gunn nor his parishioners have had much to celebrate lately. Due to serious financial hardships, he has asked his congregation to vote on Jan 30 to accept a merger with Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Cumberland Hill.
Such a move would result in — at worst — the demolition of this exquisite, stone, historic place of worship, which has stood on Lonsdale Avenue since 1884.
Rev. Don Parker, Emmanuel's interim pastor, will request his members — numbering approximately 120 — to do the same.
Gunn sent out a letter on Jan. 10, stating in part, "After much thought, prayer and listening, our vestry (or Board of Directors) has come to the conclusion that we can do the work
God has given us to do more effectively if we merge … It is very sad to think about leaving behind our beloved buildings. No one would say these are 'just buildings,' or that this is an easy choice.
"However, as Christians, we are people of hope, who proclaim a resurrection faith," it continued. "We firmly believe that out of this sadness will eventually come joy and freedom in our new life as a congregation — (one that's) able to focus on mission and ministry, and not mere maintenance and survival."
On Wednesday afternoon, Gunn maintained that Christ Church, 250 families strong, can no longer afford its annual budget of just under $400,000. By uniting with those at Emmanuel, which has greater parking availability and more acreage on which to construct additions for classrooms, both churches will endure.
"If we don't merge, I don't see how our church will survive even until the end of the year," said Gunn, while sitting in his office, one he may not have 60 days from now. "I think Emmanuel has just been getting by as well. They — and we, like some churches around the country — are in 'survival mode.'
"Most churches nowadays are spending most of their energies just getting by, paying the salaries and the bills," he continued. "If we merge with Emmanuel, we'll get beyond that 'survival mode' and into what I call 'mission mode.' That means we'll be able to spend our energy on doing the work that God wants us to do. I mean, Jesus doesn't talk about raising money to repair a roof."
Most parish members, he readily admits, dislike the idea of having to attend a different church, or leaving the one they have behind. On any given Sunday, about 175 families attend services at either 8 or 10:30 a.m.
"In general, this parish has not had adequate income for as long as anyone can remember," he noted. "When I got here in 2007, our budget deficit got to be about $67,000, and the parish was within months of having to close. But we received a bequest from a woman who had been married to a parishioner, and that allowed us to operate for another two-plus years.
"I've told our congregation that we just don't have any more piggy banks to empty. Jan. 1 through Dec. 31 is our fiscal year, and what we had to do in 2010 was to empty out the last of our piggy banks. In fact, we even borrowed a little bit of money from ourselves to get through the year. We just can't keep doing that.
"I always try to tell people that a church has two budgets: One for day-to-day expenditures and the other a capital budget for long-term repairs to the building, and, say, a boiler. Ours is about to die. We have the perfect storm here."
He claimed the operating budget is down to just pennies, despite the fact tithes/offerings have risen $50,000 — from $185,000 to $235,000 — over the past two-three years. Those monies have gone to paying salaries and oil and electric bills.
He also said the church and parish house have a minimum of $200,000 in repairs that must be addressed immediately. They include the church roof, rotting wood around windows and structural damage to the tower above the church (which was built in 1884 after the original edifice, erected in 1834 for a small congregation of Episcopalians, burned to the ground the previous year).
"In addition to that, our buildings are across (John Street) from each other," he explained. "For a child to move from the church to Sunday school at the parish house, they must cross the street, which is very dangerous. And we only have 16 parking spaces directly behind this parish house.
"We have to rely on neighboring businesses, or the school department, to allow our parishioners to park in their lots," he added. "If they decided they didn't want us to do that anymore, our members would have serious problems.
"I knew there would be challenges like this when I got here, and we've done the best we can to restore these buildings. Since I got here, we've put over $150,000 into these buildings with fundraisers, so it's not for a lack of effort.
"It costs about $60,000 a year to operate these buildings — that is, just utilities and insurance. That's a lot of money … The operational costs (at Emmanuel) are lower, and the buildings will cost us two-thirds less to operate (under $20,000 per annum), it's handicapped-accessible and, again, it has expansion possibilities. We could build new classrooms and a bigger worship area."
Gunn mentioned discussions began this past fall. The rector at Emmanuel — located at 120 Nate Whipple Hwy. — had left in August, leaving the church without a permanent reverend. Parker became the interim pastor.
"I believe we sent the first e-mail to them, one saying 'Would you be interested in a merger/partnership?'" Gunn said. "We got an e-mail back that said, 'We were thinking the same thing!'"
Discussions ensued between the vestries of both churches, where they got to know each other as individuals and worshipers. They also formed a "merger team" of clergy and lay people to assess the feasibility of a merger, and all figured it would be best to combine memberships.
Long before that, in March 2010, the vestry at Christ Church initiated a series of membership conversations at the Parish House.
"That's when they learned there was a possibility of a partnership," Gunn offered. "There were some people, still are, who understandably were sad by the idea of leaving behind a familiar, historic place. However, some are excited because they understand the stress level (of making payments) would drop, and they could spend their energy doing God's work.
"Obviously, it's sad to think about leaving behind this church, but it would be even more sad if the love for our building kept us from doing the right thing," he continued. "Rev. Parker (who will remain on as an associate rector with Christ Church Rev. Melody Shobe) is excited about this. His plan is to help in the transition until December 2011.
"It's the same thing I've been talking about. It's all about doing the fulfilling segments of the church ministry. It will be a majority vote, and I believe both congregations will support the merger, though we're still hearing, 'Don't close! Please!'
"One of our members, he's 80 years old, did tell me, 'Those of us who are getting a little older need to set aside our feelings and let the younger generations make these difficult decisions.' I thought that was beautiful."
Gunn revealed financial pressure at both sites is considerable, for different but related reasons. If the merger is rejected, neither church could support a full-time priest (Gunn would be the "priest-in-charge"). Experience and mere numbers have shown that parishes with part-time clergy often fall into decline and close within a few years.
Should the two unite, the Christ Church Parish House will be sold, with the proceeds used to fund expansion on Emmanuel's property. Gunn stated that building's seating capacity is approximately 130 (with Christ Church about 350), so an addition would be necessary.
In the interim, Gunn's plan is to hold three Sunday morning services, those at 7:45, 9 and 11 o'clock, with the last slated for 5 p.m.
When asked if Christ Church would be demolished, he said only, "I'm not sure. Here's the issue with our church. Obviously, it's a beautiful, historic building which holds inside and out many memories, and behind it is the cemetery, which is as old as the (original) church. Next to the church (on the left) is our memorial garden, and that's where ashes (of those members who chose cremation) are interred.
"It's difficult to sell the church because of its proximity to the cemetery and garden, but — if we could find a person or organization that would have a use for it, we'd love to make an arrangement so it could remain standing."
(For more information, the church phone number is (401) 725-1920).
Gunn also mentioned if the mini-cathedral was torn down, the cemetery could "re-open" for burials, and the church would continue to own the surrounding land.
"That would allow us to leave the cemetery and memorial garden undisturbed," he noted. "We also could have outdoor services and other events on the property, and the land would remain holy."
Gunn acknowledged he had mixed emotions about the entire process, adding that churches across the United States are facing similar choices, "whether to live in the past, or move into a hope-filled future.
"As difficult as all of these questions are, they're exactly the questions we need to be asking," he said. "I'd say most of the active members of this church, their faith is growing deeper as we travel on this journey together. In other words, I think we're learning why church matters to us.
"I do think a merger would be good for the members at both sites. In life, we learn the most from experiencing difficult times, and the same is true for churches," he added. "This is real, this is life. It's happened. We (as a merger team) believe we've come up with a pretty good solution.
"When we turn the page on this difficult chapter, I believe the next chapter will bring us a great future."

The obvious ones are 0 and $e^{-x^2}$ (with annoying factors), and someone I know suggested hyperbolic secant. What other fixed points (or even eigenfunctions) of the Fourier transform are there?
The following is discussed in a little more detail on pages 337-339 of Frank Jones's book "Lebesgue Integration on Euclidean Space" (and many other places as well).
Normalize the Fourier transform so that it is a unitary operator $T$ on $L^2(\mathbb{R})$. One can then check that $T^4=1$. The eigenvalues are thus $1$, $i$, $-1$, and $-i$. For $a$ one of these eigenvalues, denote by $M_a$ the corresponding eigenspace. It turns out then that $L^2(\mathbb{R})$ is the direct sum of these $4$ eigenspaces!
In fact, this is easy linear algebra. Consider $f \in L^2(\mathbb{R})$. We want to find $f_a \in M_a$ for each of the eigenvalues such that $f = f_1 + f_{-1} + f_{i} + f_{-i}$. Using the fact that $T^4 = 1$, we obtain the following 4 equations in 4 unknowns:
$f = f_1 + f_{-1} + f_{i} + f_{-i}$
$T(f) = f_1 - f_{-1} +i f_{i} -i f_{-i}$
$T^2(f) = f_1 + f_{-1} - f_{i} - f_{-i}$
$T^3(f) = f_1 - f_{-1} -i f_{i} +i f_{-i}$
Solving these four equations yields the corresponding projection operators. As an example, for $f \in L^2(\mathbb{R})$, we get that $\frac{1}{4}(f + T(f) + T^2(f) + T^3(f))$ is a fixed point for $T$.
Following on a little from Andy's comment, Hermite polynomials (multiplied by a Gaussian factor) give a basis of eigenvectors for the FT as an operator on $L^2({\mathbb R})$
A very important fixed point of the Fourier transform that isn't in $L^2$ is the Dirac comb distribution, informally $$D(x) = \sum_{n\in Z} \delta(x-n),$$ or more properly, defined by its pairing on smooth functions of sufficient decay by $$\langle D, f\rangle = \sum_{n\in Z} f(n).$$ The fact that $D$ is equal to its Fourier transform is really just the Poisson summation formula.
(I wrote an argument explaining why $D$ should be its own Fourier transform in an answer to another question: Truth of the Poisson summation formula)

What is Advanced Passenger Information? Why do I need to provide it?
The immigration authorities of many countries require all airlines to provide passenger passport information prior to departure of any inbound or outbound flights to ensure safety and security. Currently these countries include:
Passengers travelling to the UAE from certain countries also need to provide Advanced Passenger Information. Currently these countries include: Iran, Iraq, Pakistan and Yemen.
Please be aware that information requirements are subject to change at any time.
Required passenger information for all API countries (note that additional information requirements vary by country):
If travelling to the United States of America, the following additional details are required.
Passengers who refuse to supply this information prior to travel will not be allowed entry to the USA and therefore will not be accepted for travel at check-in. It is important that the information is accurate to avoid delays at the airports both on departure and arrival into the USA.
US Citizens, Legal Permanent Residents (LPRs), transit passengers and departing passengers are exempt from the U.S. address requirement.
In addition to the Advanced Passenger Information above, the USA requires your next of kin contact details, in case of an emergency. This will include the person's name and the telephone number.

It's generally accepted that you have to choose between a bold lip or a smoky eye, but Kristen Stewart proved otherwise at the Los Angeles premiere of On The Road. Makeup artist Jillian Dempsey wanted to give the actress even "more edge than normal" with a vampy lip and ruby-colored, smoky eyes to complement her menswear-inspired Balenciaga ensemble. Hairstylist Adir Abergel followed suit, creating an "androgynous, roughed-up ponytail." All proof that sometimes you have to break a few beauty rules to make an impact.Skin
To score Stewart's porcelain skin, Dempsey used Armani Luminous Silk Foundation ($59) in #4, buffing the edges with a wedge sponge. She went over any imperfections with a creamy concealer and a small nylon brush, but avoided applying blush on the apples of the cheeks, instead using Lancome's Blush Subtil Palette ($42) in Nectar Lace for contour. "Apply blush along the upper cheekbone with a fan brush," she says. Dempsey waited until she'd finished the entire look to dust on Laura Mercier's Loose Setting Powder ($35)--sparingly!--to keep things fresh.
To create a dramatic, ruby-colored eye, Dempsey used shades from Lancome's Color Design 5 Shadow & Liner Palette ($49) in Ruby Affair. "I applied the lightest color on the lid, then made a half moon on her crease with the darker shades and just kept building the intensity," Dempsey says. Once the eye had reached a dark, ruby color, she folded a tissue to make a stencil, laid it against Stewart's face, and brought the color up and out. "Then go over the line with a small, clean brush for softness," she says. Next, she applied Lancome's Long Wear Calligraphy Gel Eyeliner ($25) in Black Fishnet, gently smudging the color along the lash line. Dempsey curled the actress' eyelashes and applied several coats of the brand's Hypnose Star Mascara (28); "I build the lashes by moving the brush side to side and up and down," she says. As for the bottom lashes, she uses a separate small wand to reach each one. Dempsey defined Stewart's eyebrows with Kevyn Aucoin's The Precision Brow Pencil ($24) in Brunette, and set with Anastasia's Brow Gel ($21) in Clear.
Dempsey reached for Lancome's L'Absolu Rouge ($30) in Rouge Velour to give Stewart the vampiest lips possible. "I began on the lower lip, in the center, and followed the cupid's bow in a heart to determine the shape," she says. She filled in Stewart's lips, blotted off excess with one layer of a tissue, and set the color with the same Laura Mercier powder before adding one final coat of lipstick.
Abergel wanted a "ponytail that looked great from every angle," so he prepped Stewart's dry hair with Fekkai's Coiff Bouffant Lifting & Texturizing Spray Gel ($25), concentrating on the roots, before making a deep side part. He pinned the top section of hair out of the way, coated his hands with the brand's Coiff Nonchalant Piecing & Forming Wax ($25), and pulled the rest of the hair into a "perky ponytail" on the left backside of Stewart's head. "The sides of the hair need to be pulled tight and severe to make this style more modern and edgy," Abergel says. Once the ponytail was secure he released the top section, backcombed the roots for height, and set it with Fekkai Coiff Sheer Hold Hair Spray ($25). He gently raked the top section back, twisting and pinning with criss-crossed bobby pins over the elastic, and into the ponytail. To finish, Abergel set the style with more hair spray and smoothed Stewart's locks over one shoulder--androgynous never looked so sultry!

YIELD: Makes 18 bars
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (2 sticks) parve margarine, cut into tablespoons
- Dash of salt
- 1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar, divided
- 2 large egg yolks, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons orange blossom water (optional)
- 1 tablespoon cold water plus 1/2 tablespoon water, divided
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the flour, margarine, salt and 1/2 cup of the sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse about seven times, or until the mixture looks like sand. You can also do this by hand in a large bowl with two knives or a pastry cutter. Add 1 egg yolk, the vanilla, orange blossom water, if using, and the tablespoon of cold water. Process or mix just until the dough comes together.
2. Place a large piece of parchment on the counter and grease lightly using the paper or foil wrapper that wrapped the margarine. Dump the dough onto the greased parchment and, using a rolling pin, roll into a large circle, about 9 inches in diameter.
3. To decorate the edge of the cookie, using the flat end of the handle of a wooden spoon, or the tip of your index finger, make indentations one after the other all around the outside of the circle.
4. Whisk together the remaining egg yolk with the 1/2 tablespoon of water. Brush the top of the cookie with egg wash. Using the tines of a fork, make one set of lines straight across the top of the cookie. Make another set about 2 inches below the first. Repeat until you have four to five sets of lines. Now slide the parchment a quarter turn to the right and make four to five additional sets of lines, each about 2 inches apart. The new set of lines should cross the first set of lines on an angle, creating a diamond-shaped grid.
5. Sprinkle the top of the cookie with the remaining teaspoon of sugar. Slide the parchment onto a cookie sheet and bake for 35 to 37 minutes, until the edges start to look golden. Remove from the oven and immediately cut the cookie into 8 or 12 large wedges or about eighteen 1 x 3-inch bars, if you like. If you wait until the cookie cools to cut it, you will not get nice clean edges.
Storage: Place baked cookies into an airtight container or freezer bags and store at room temperature for up to five days or freeze up to three months.

No Easy Day: The Firsthand Account of the Mission that Killed Osama bin Ladenby Mark Owen and Kevin Maurer
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
For the first time anywhere, the first-person account of the planning and execution of the Bin Laden raid from a Navy Seal who confronted the terrorist mastermind and witnessed his final moments.
From the streets of Iraq to the rescue of Captain Richard Phillips in the Indian Ocean, and from the mountaintops of Afghanistan to the third floor of Osama Bin laden's compound, operator Mark Owen of the U.S. Naval Special Warfare Development Group — commonly known as SEAL team Six — has been a part of some of the most memorable special operations in history, as well as countless missions that never made headlines.
"The arch-terrorist's death was 'just another job,' according to this gung-ho memoir by a member of the U.S. Navy SEAL Team Six that dispatched him. The pseudonymous Owen's (revealed by Fox News to be Matt Bissonnette) story is 'generalized' and scrubbed of 'classified information' but authentic enough to provoke Pentagon legal threats and convey a compelling realism. His meticulous narrative of the raid adds new wrinkles to the conventional account — he insists that Bin Laden did not try to fight or hide behind his wives before he was shot, unarmed, while peeking through a doorway (Owen sneers at his unpreparedness) — along with atmospheric details, from the terror of an initial helicopter crash to his cleaning of blood from Bin Laden's face for identifying photos. The raid caps Owen's well-observed memoir of training ordeals, awesome gear, bonding and banter, and special ops in Iraq and Afghanistan; co-author Maurer shapes these missions into tense scenes of strategizing, stealth and action. This is not a reflective book; the righteousness of post-9/11 military adventures is self-evident to Owen, and he worries only about measuring up to the SEAL standard of lethal teamwork. Still, it paints an absorbing portrait of the work-a-day soldierly professionalism that proved Bin Laden's nemesis. Photos. (Sept. 4)" Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
"This harrowing, minute-by-minute account by one of the highly trained members of Navy SEAL Team Six is narrative nonfiction at its most gripping, taking the reader through the mountains of Afghanistan and inside the slightly dilapidated-looking family compound in Pakistan." Entertainment Weekly
"The bin Laden story is the marquee event in No Easy Day, of course. But the formative steps in the authors own story are just as gripping. Mr. Owen's new information about the Abbottobad attacks adds a human element to much of what has been previously reported. There is no better illustration in No Easy Day that SEALs are ruthless pragmatists. They think fast. They adapt to whatever faces them. They do what they have to do." Janet Maslin, New York Times
"The book is a stomach-twisting close-up look at that historic mission in Abbottabad, told from the point of view of a super-elite member of SEAL Team Six who fired a bullet into bin Laden and helped carry away the corpse. Written in clean, polished prose...No Easy Day often reads like a gripping novel as the author recounts remarkably vivid details....No Easy Day puts you right there for every tense moment." Entertainment Weekly
"A cast of characters, including Owen himself, artfully drawn, yet painfully human, passionate descriptions of a lifestyle that few are privy to, as well as its breathlessly paced, inexorable march toward an inevitable ending…it's a remarkably intimate glimpse into what motivates men striving to join an elite fighting force like the SEALs — and what keeps them there." Associated Press
"Make no mistake: No Easy Day is an important historic document. Think if we had a first-person account of the last minutes of Hitler in his bunker. No Easy Day is brisk and compelling in its telling of the training, execution and immediate aftermath of the Bin Laden mission by the elite SEAL Team Six." Los Angeles Times
"[Mark Owen] has given us a brave retelling of one of the most important events in U.S. military history." People Magazine
"The writing is fast-paced, and Owen and Maurer tell some good yarns in a conversational style. They also neatly capture the camaraderie, the pranks, the constant training and the evident love that the men of SEAL Team 6 have for their jobs." Washington Post
No Easy Day puts readers alongside Owen and the other handpicked members of the twenty-four-man team as they train for the biggest mission of their lives. The blow-by-blow narrative of the assault, beginning with the helicopter crash that could have ended Owen's life straight through to the radio call confirming Bin Laden's death, is an essential piece of modern history.
In No Easy Day, Owen also takes readers onto the field of battle in America's ongoing War on Terror and details the selection and training process for one of the most elite units in the military. Owen's story draws on his youth in Alaska and describes the SEALs' quest to challenge themselves at the highest levels of physical and mental endurance. With boots-on-the-ground detail, Owen describes numerous previously unreported missions that illustrate the life and work of a SEAL and the evolution of the team after the events of September 11. In telling the true story of the SEALs whose talents, skills, experiences, and exceptional sacrifices led to one of the greatest victories in the War on Terror, Mark Owen honors the men who risk everything for our country, and he leaves readers with a deep understanding of the warriors who keep America safe.

The first Utah mine safety conference was conducted at College of Eastern Utah on Oct. 22.
The conference was the first session scheduled by the Utah Office of Mine Safety.
The office was created by recommendation of the Utah Mine Safety Commission formed by Gov. Jon Huntsman in August 2007 after the Crandall Canyon mine accident.
Garth Nielson has served as the director of the coal mine safety office for three months. He welcomed the attendees to the inaugural event.
The mine safety office is housed within the Utah Labor Commission. Sherrie Hayashi is the director of the commission and answers directly to the governor..
The focus of the office of mine safety is on proactive prevention.
"We must use our experience and knowledge to prevent accidents. The people here today have vast experience. We must be good leaders and show our support for safety. Every day, we lead people into a new environment that no one has been in before; we have a good idea what is there, but every day in mining is different. We need to focus on prevention. Prevention can make our operations safer," pointed out Nielson.
"Safety is a culture. We can't rely on luck. Have you ever stopped and thought how many lives you have saved. You are too good at what you do to rely on luck," added Nielson.
The Utah office is working in conjunction with the United States Mine Safety Administration.
State officials work with MSHA on any incidents. There have been eight incidents so far this year.
"We would feel good to never have to go to any incidents," said Nielson. "Compliance is a focus, but also safety and prevention. We need to hold accountable anyone who doesn't want safety and doesn't work safely."
Nielson indicated that the state office has worked to create an advisory council and he has visited every mine.
During the visits to mines and the communities, he realized that individuals are the most important part in the industry.
The most important thing the office can do is to keep miners safe and make sure that family, friends and neighbors go home at the end of the day.
The mine safety office director said the conference would address a variety of subjects with nine speakers.
Nielson introduced Debbie King from the Price office of the Utah Labor Commission. She works with miner certification.
"The OCMS is a new office but certification has been around a long time," pointed out King. "There are always a lot of questions on where to get training. The state of Utah certifies for five positions including foreman both underground and surface;Â fire boss and electrician both underground and surface."
King's office doesn't provide the actual training. Instructors at WETC and private companies do.
The state's labor commission office in Price completes the local certification process.
The labor office also handles the annual eight-hour refresher course and the 32-hour new miner certifications.
Records are kept at the state for people passing any type of certification. Federal certification records are kept at MSHA's office in Denver, Colo.
Certifications expire. If people leave the profession for five years or longer, certifications will then expire. An individual can retest if a certification expires or is revoked.
If electricians miss the yearly refresher course, they have to recertify.
How to educate and train the next generation of miners to do their jobs well and safely is a concern, said King. The instruction consists of two major components - classroom and on the job training.
CEU has training programs as well as the Western Energy Training Center and independent instructors.
CEU offers 15 week training courses for the certifications.
It is important for experienced miners to pass along their knowledge to incoming miners before they retire, said King.
The question of why more miners aren't passing the certifications was discussed at the conference.
Officials indicated that a better job of preparing miners for the certifications must be done.
King said her job is to get the information out to the miners. The job of miners is to study and prepare for the certifications.
The labor commission has a webpage coming in the future where Castle Valley miners will be able to download a study guide and testing schedules.
The miners will also be able soon to check when their certifications expire.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
Carbon County voters came to the Feb. 5 polls to cast ballots in the largest national primary election ever conducted on Tuesday.
Republicans in the county went with the candidate supported by the majority of the state, while the Democrats voted for the runner up in the state election.
Republican Mitt Romney received 1,017 votes in the county or 80.52 percent of the local ballots cast in the closed Republican primary.
The Republicans in Utah as a whole cast nearly 90 percent of the party's votes for the former Massachusetts governor and the man who took over the Salt Lake Olympics in 2002, managing to resurrect what seemed to a failing enterprise.
On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton came in with a commanding 1,040 votes in Carbon County or 56.43 percent of the local Democratic ballots cast.
But statewide, Democrats supported Barack Obama as the candidate garnered 57 percent of the primary votes in Utah.
Few political analysts would have disputed that Romney, almost an adopted son of the state, would win Utah's primary election.
But few political analysts predicted that Obama would beat Clinton on the Democratic ballot in Utah.
United States Senator John McCain from Arizona, often considered a friend of Utah, registered 143 votes in Carbon County.
Nationwide, McCain took a large lead in the number of delegates over his closest rival, Romney.
Other candidates running the Republican primary in the county receiving votes included Mike Huckabee with 60, Ron Paul with 28, Rudy Giuliani with 12 and Fred Thompson with three.
Obama, who garnered 38.42 percent of the Democratic primary votes cast in Carbon County, came in with a total of 708 local ballots.
Statewide, Obama garnered 69,638 votes in Utah's Democratic primary election compared to Clinton's 48,413 ballots.
Other Democratic candidates that received votes at the local polls included John Edwards with 64, Joe Biden with 12, Bill Richardson with nine, Dennis Kucinich with four and Frank Lynch and Christopher Dodd with three each.
Few problems were reported at the polls, but apparently some people got upset about the closed primary the Republican's were running.
"We, nor the state, determine what the parties do with their primaries," said Carbon County Clerk Bob Pero on Wednesday morning. "We are just the messengers of what they want done. We only administer the voting process."
To have voted Republican in the primaries, one needed to be a registered Republican or be unaffiliated and then declare to be a Republican. The Democratic side of the election was not closed and unaffiliated people could vote in that primary.
The turnout in some of the polling stations was high, but of the 15,365 registered voters in the county, only 3130 or 20.37 percent actually voted in the primary.
Alexis Horsley, assistant county clerk, said that the vote total released on Tuesday night would not be official until the canvas was done in a few days.
The turnout for the general election that will take place on Nov. 4 is expected to be much higher than the primary, because not only will the presidential race between the eventually Republican and Democratic nominees be on the ballot, but many local offices will also be up for grabs.

Castagnini, Gerber & Makovicka Lead Jays to Sweep of SIU, 9-1
OMAHA, Neb. - Creighton Baseball got two RBI from Federico Castagnini, Mike Gerber and Jordan Makovicka to claim a 9-1 win over Southern Illinois on April 21.
The Bluejays recorded its third three-game sweep of 2013 (second in MVC play) to move to 22-9 overall and 8-4 in the MVC. Southern Illinois fell to 18-21 on the season and 2-10 in conference.
Creighton jumped out on SIU in the opening inning, scoring four runs on four hits and two walks. Junior Brad McKewon opened the frame by smoking a double down the left field line. Castagnini sent McKewon to third with a sacrifice. Junior Jake Peter and Gerber followed with back-to-back doubles to give the Jays a 2-0 edge. Freshman Reagan Fowler's slow grounder to second was thrown home, but Gerber beat the play easily, pushing Creighton's lead to 3-0. Sophomore Kevin Lamb singled sharply up the middle, then one out later Ryan Fitzgerald and Makovicka drew consecutive walks to force home Fowler and give the Jays a 4-0 advantage.
Southern Illinois got a run in the fourth, but freshman Nick Highberger came on to escape a bases loaded, one-out jam without further damage. Highberger went on to toss a career-high 3.1 innings of scoreless relief, earning his first win (1-0).
Behind Highberger, the Bluejay offense added single runs in the fourth, fifth and sixth innings, while Castagnini's two-run single capped the scoring in the seventh.
Peter finished the day 3-for-4 with three runs scored and two triples, becoming the first Jay since 2006 to record two triples in a game (John Nowaczyk - April 8, 2006)
Southern Illinois' starter Sam Coonrod suffered the loss (3-3), allowing four runs on six hits in 1.2 innings.
Creighton returns to the diamond on Tuesday, April 23 as the Jays face the Iowa Hawkeyes in Iowa City, Iowa at 6:05 p.m. John Bishop and Dave Gustafson have the call on 1620 the Zone.
