The United States Department of Labor announced Monday that the federal agency will award a grant of $2.7 million to College of Eastern Utah to train laborers in multiple sectors of the energy industry.
The grant is part of nearly $27 million in investments made since 2003 in support of the nation's energy workforce through President George Bush's high growth job training initiative.
The college indicated several months ago that is has a desire to create an education facility to train workers in various sectors of the energy field. College President Ryan Thomas indicated that the funding would be used primarily for curriculum development at the proposed training facility, with some going toward administrative costs.
"This is a wonderful opportunity for CEU and the surrounding communities," said Gov. Jon Huntsman. "This sort of boost is perfect for our state's energy industry and the corresponding economic development in the area."
The grant totals $2,737,804 and has the backing of three key partners, including the Southeastern Utah Energy Producers Association, the Utah Department of Workforce Services and the Eastern Utah District of the Division of Rehabilitation Services.
Utah is one of six states to receive funding under the federal initiative.
"Utah's natural resources are plentiful and will play a vital role in meeting the United States' ever increasing demands for energy in the future," wrote Sen. Bob Bennett in a letter supporting the grant. "As of this time, however, there has been no investment of federal funds for the purpose of training individuals capable of assisting Utah in harnessing these resources."
"The proposed grant funding, as part of the high growth job training initiative, would be used for the development of those individuals involved in the oil and gas, coal and electrical power industries in this area," added Bennett.
Now that the grant from the U.S. Department of Labor has been announced, the proposed CEU energy center looks to become more of a possibility than some people may have thought.
And while some people have decried the concept as nothing more than a pipe dream, industry experts and public officials are beginning to realize the need for such a facility in the region.
"The growing demand for energy resources is creating new jobs in eastern Utah for workers who possess the right skill sets," said U.S. Labor Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao. "With this $2.7 million grant under President Bush's high growth job training initiative, the College of Eastern Utah will partner with industry to provide training and certification programs so workers can acquire those skills and access these new career opportunities."
Courses will include safety, instrumentation and technical skills certifications with the capacity to train up to 2,100 people annually.
Classes also will be offered to Hispanic and American Indian populations in their native languages.
"The training provided by the College of Eastern Utah and its partners will prepare workers with transferable skills, equipping them to compete for good jobs and promotion opportunities," said Emily Stover, assistant secretary of labor for employment and training. "The eastern Utah energy industry also will benefit from a pipeline of new workers to help address the challenge of a baby-boom workforce ready to retire."
Upon completion of the curriculum, participants will be offered additional training tailored to mining and power generation. Training will lead to a knowledge base that can be transferred across multiple energy industry sectors.
"We are trying to create a different approach to training in this area," said Thomas. He explained that courses will be offered on a non-traditional schedule.
He explained that in the education field, curriculum is often manipulated and adjusted to fit into a 14 or 16 week schedule and the type of training that the college plans to offer will not be constrained by the time frame of the traditional semester system.
Energy industry experts have raised concern regarding the need for more skilled workers in the industry. Specifically, experts warn the nearly half of the current energy workforce will retire in the next five to 10 years.
Many younger workers are unaware of the highly skilled, well-paying careers available. Many consider energy jobs as dirty, unstable and low-skilled.
However, despite the need for more workers in the industry, many training programs were scaled back or closed down due to a downturn in the industry in the late 1980s and early 1990s. And those training programs have not been revamped despite growth in the industry.
Further, with new technologies being implemented, employers are looking for workers who are more proficient in math, science and technology than in the past.
As a result, experts, including officials within the Department of Labor are looking for creative solutions that will help experienced workers who are retiring to transfer their skills and knowledge to a younger workforce as quickly as possible.
In addition, labor experts note that few industry-defined, portable credentials have been developed in the energy industry. Further, career ladders that show the possibility for promotion within the industry are severely lacking. As a result, many fail to see the viability of the field as a career choice.
The $2.7 million from the Department of Labor is indicative of the importance of creating a training center in the region.
"Price is an important energy hub for Utah and for the West," said Sen. Orrin Hatch. "The new energy training center will go a long way toward helping to ensure that we have the best prepared workers in the field developed, trained and taught right here in Utah. This is a big win for Price and Carbon County."
In the future, the facility could also receive backing from the National Mining Association, said Thomas. He indicated that the NMA has expressed an interest in developing a regional training center in eastern Utah. According to Thomas, a training facility similar to that proposed by CEU would serve as a support facility and the NMA would augment training.
In order to provide the necessary training, CEU plans to provide classes at the main Price campus and sattelite campuses located throughout eastern Utah. Hands-on training will be offered at the CEU Energy Center. Additional training will be offered at the center's on-site mine and other employer-chosen work sites.
"There are several pieces that are coming together that we have been working on for a number of months," said Thomas.
However, one of the pieces of that puzzle, the physical location of the CEU Energy Center is still in the works. Thomas explained that the college is working with multiple donors and plans to purchase land from Plateau Mining Corporation located at the former Willow Creek Mine in Price Canyon.
In October, Thomas and other CEU officials approached the Utah Permanent Community Impact Fund Board in an effort to acquire temporary funding for the purchase of 300 acres and buildings housing state-of-the-art equipment that would be used for the training program.
Board members were reluctant to provide funding for multiple reason and as a result, CEU is looking to private donors and alternate sources of funding in order to purchase the property.
Though funding for the land is still in the works, Thomas was optimistic that the college would be able to move forward with the planned training facility. He explained that lawyers representing the Plateau Mining and CEU are in the process of reviewing the contract and felt confident that the transaction would take place as anticipated.

Video: NRA's LaPierre: We need 'swift' punishment of criminals
WASHINGTON (AP) - Former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords says Congress should be bold in writing new laws to address gun violence in America.
Giffords was severely wounded in a 2011 shooting spree that killed six people during a forum in Tucson. She told the Senate Judiciary Committee that Americans are counting on lawmakers to address the problem. Speaking haltingly, she said: "It will be hard, but the time is now. Too many children are dying."
The former Arizona congresswoman was the first witness at Congress's initial hearing on gun violence since the Newton, Conn., elementary school massacre in December.
The Senate committee is taking the lead in writing legislation to address gun violence. Many want to re-impose an assault weapons ban and prohibition on large-capacity ammunition magazines. The National Rifle Association opposes these proposals.
Former astronaut Mark Kelly, and Giffords' husband, told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday that he and his wife are gun owners who support the right to own guns. But he says Congress must strengthen laws to prevent criminals and the mentally ill from getting guns.
Kelly said he and his wife are "two reasonable Americans" who believe it is time for Congress to act.
Kelly sat at the opposite end of the witness table from Wayne LaPierre, executive vice president of the National Rifle Association. LaPierre also was testifying.

It is almost as if the New York Rangers looked at the list of things that they needed to do in order to win game 2 of their series with the Philadelphia Flyers and made sure that they didn't do a single thing. The Rangers gave away a game that could have made their playoff lives a whole lot easier but sometimes I really wonder if this franchise prefers the hard way when it comes to doing anything.
The one thing this Ranger team badly needs to develop is a killer instinct as they just don't seem to know or realize what to do when they have a team on the ropes. There isn't a player who is willing to step up and finish off a team to turn a game into a laugher.
Up 2-0 after 8:22 of the first period instead of pouring it on and not giving the Flyers any kind of momenteum, the Rangers did exactly that. The experts talk about the shift after a goal being a key factor in a game and they were right as the Flyers went after the Rangers in that shift looking to force a mistake or two.
Carl Hagelin gave them that mistake when he took a bad holding call at 9:56 of the first and the Flyers had the life they needed to get back into the game. The Rangers may have killed off the penalty but they also killed their own momemteum in doing so.
They stopped attacking the crease area, nobody tried setting up shop in front of Flyer's goalie Ray Emery which turned him into a confident goalie. Yes the Rangers had the edge in shots on goal but the majority of those shots came from the perimeter where Emery had all day to see the shot coming in and make the save.
All of a sudden it was like the Flyers had built some kind of force field where the Rangers could only shoot the puck from long distance. The Rangers had 17 shots on goal in the 2nd period but I seriously doubt they got more than a couple of them from in close. And no I am not going to sit here and give the Flyers the credit for this win because the Rangers handed the win to them.
Ranger's coach Alain Vigneault said his team had several "grade A" chances to score and I am sorry but the coach is kidding himself because Emery wasn't having to scramble in his crease to make saves like he did in the first period when he was a step behind the Ranger passing game during the 2 goals.
If you are feeling frustrated about this loss there is good reason to be as the Rangers got suckered into playing the Flyer's sytle of play. The Rangers were reacting to everything the Flyers were doing rather than skating away as they did in game 1.
The Rangers did cut down on their giveaways by 4 but still a 12-5 margin is way too much. Brad Richards and Derek Stepan each had 3 for the game and sorry your top 2 centers need to play much better than that.
And yes the required reminder that Rick Nash other than a secondary assist on the first goal still is for the most part failing to get the job done. 17 NHL playoff games and just 2 total playoff goals is unacceptable. If you want to be considered a star player in the NHL then you better do something in the playoffs as that is where reputations both good and bad can be made.
If Alain Vigneault swaps out Jesper Fast for Dan Carcillo instead of JT Miller then he will be helping the Flyers more than the Rangers. The Rangers will not win if they are suckered into playing the Flyer's style of chippy play. They just do not have the kind of players who can match the Flyer's physical brand of hockey.
Alain Vigneault needs to keep the Rangers focused on doing the things that won them 25 road games like playing a disciplined game where the Rangers dictated the tempo and forced the other guys to play catch up. Changing the lineup because you fear what the Flyers will do also tells your players that their style won't work when it very much has a proven track record.
You Didn't Ask Me BUT
I love Ryan McDonagh as a player and as a person but he is the last guy I would want as the next Ranger captain. McDongah is way too much the nice guy and the Rangers have had way too many players of late who are "nice guys."
I am sure having a locker room full of guys who love each other is nice but the Rangers need their next captain to have a bit of a "jerk" in him. They need a leader who even if he is quiet will want the puck in the biggest situations. They need someone who is not going to be afraid to get into someone's face when he isn't playing good hockey.
Yes they do need someone who will stand up in the locker room and demand accountability from his teammates. Do the Rangers have someone on their roster to fill that role, maybe as I think Derek Stepan might be kind of young but I believe he is poised to become a team leader.

A recently estimated 40 percent increase in high school and college students who are receiving head-lice treatments has California-based head-lice expert, Marcy McQuillan believing that the "group selfie" may be responsible.
A selfie is a type of self portrait that is usually taken with a hand held digital device. A group selfie is two or more people taking a selfie-photo of themselves in close proximity of one another.
The Province reports that since the pests can't jump or fly, McQuillan suspects the proximity of these head-to-head photos are what's causing the increase in patients she's seen in the last two years at her two head-lice treatment clinics.
But local school boards and health experts say they haven't seen enough of an increase in head lice among teens for McQuillan's theory to hold water.

I had shoulder surgery on 2/18/2014 and am currently recovering. I had shoulder surgery over a decade ago on my other (right) shoulder, this surgery was way more involved. Dr. fithian is the most thoughtful, attentive and understanding doctor I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I am so happy he is my surgeon and hope that anyone that has a choice is able to have him work with them.

Dr. Fithian replaced my left knee in 2009. One week ago today he replaced my right knee. I feel better everyday. This is a doctor who realizes everyone experiences pain on different levels and one pill may work differently depending on tolerance. I was in a lot of discomfort and I thank you for listening. 5 star doctor

The VA told me that I had reached the permanent and stationary plateau with my leg that was damaged in the USArmy during the 60's. They stated total knee replacement would not help/was un-necessary. Dr Fithian disagreed and replaced the knee. I went back to my very demanding job with almost no loss of range of motion. A great doctor.

LAFARGEVILLE For the past several years, the town of Orleans has been trying to bring potable water to Route 12 residents whose wells have been contaminated by salt.
And although its a small step, the town finally is moving forward with the preconstruction engineering phase with a $500,000 Empire State Development grant.
Orleans Supervisor Kevin C. Rarick said the grant will allow the town engineer, Fourth Coast Inc., Clayton, to design the proposed water system so the town has a starting point on the estimated $10.8 million project along Route 12.
Fourth Coast engineers have said the scope of the project ultimately will depend on funding availability for the actual construction.
Mr. Rarick said that even if the project is split into phases, the town needs to start out shooting for the moon aiming as high as it can to try to serve as many people as possible.
If the town can find funding for the project in one fell swoop, the Route 12 Water District would bring municipal water to roughly 500 housing units between Collins Landing and Fishers Landing.
Collins Landing in particular has long been plagued by salt contamination originating from runoff at a nearby state Department of Transportation maintenance facility.
Residents, who were made aware of the issue in 2002, suspect that road salt had been seeping slowly into the ground and contaminating wells for decades.
While DOT has been providing affected property owners with bottled water as a short-term fix, local officials have been pressuring the department to chip in for the project, to no avail.

Innovation: online web platform and tools for golf game
Golf is known for being a frustrating sport. Sometimes the frustrations begin even before getting to the tee box. That's what Brian Wroblewski and his business partners wanted to solve when they created GolfPipeline, an online web platform designed to give golfers some modern tools for their golf game.
"We really wanted to provide golfers with the single best source to manage a golf game," said Brian Wroblewski, president of GolfPipeline. "Our web platform combines the best parts of the most popular consumer websites and allows avid golfers to reserve tee times, invite players, and even track their golf scores from a single source."
"The website is designed in a way that allows the golfer to use as many or as little of the tools as they feel comfortable with," he said. "We've taken similar components that websites like Facebook, Open Table and Travelocity have and applied them to a golf environment."
Users can set up profile accounts on Golfpipeline.com where they can input their golf information and then reserve tee times at GolfPipeline member courses, Wroblewski said.
The site is designed so users can locate any golf course within a defined geographic area, search available tee times (at member courses) or search for favorite courses.
"We have approximately 20 member courses in Wisconsin right now, and that number is growing every day," he said.
According to Wroblewski, one frustration GolfPipeline seeks to address is the hassle of calling multiple courses in search of available tee times for foursomes or multiple groups of people.
The web platform allows a golfer to indicate how many holes they'd like to play, with how many people, and what window of time they'd like to schedule a tee time in, Wroblewski said.
"Once they've defined those parameters, GolfPipeline will aggregate all available data from golf courses in the area that have available tee times that fit the criteria. Golfers will be able to select the course and schedule other foursomes around that tee time if they want to do larger groups or an event."
The web platform links directly with the golf course's reservation software, he said.
Golfers are able to reserve their tee times, and cancel them all directly from GolfPipeline. No credit card information is exchanged. The golfers pay once they get to the course.
There are only 12 different types of software that courses use for scheduling, Wroblewski said.
GolfPipeline is already built to seamlessly function with the two most popular ones.
"As soon as a course signs a contract with us we can have them live on the website within one day," Wroblewski said.
If a course is not currently a member of GolfPipeline, users can "suggest" the course be added to the site by a simple click of a button.
Membership to GolfPipeline is free for golfers and for courses. GolfPipeline secures a percentage of the money the course charges for the tee time if it's booked through the web platform, Wroblewski said.
"We receive 5 percent of the reservation cost if it's a peak tee time and 15 percent of the reservation fee if it's an off peak time," Wroblewski said. "We let the course determine peak and off peak times as well as their booking prices. If a reservation is never booked through GolfPipeline it's just free advertising for the course."
Wroblewski hopes to reach 250 courses by the end of 2012 and initially plans to expand throughout Wisconsin and the Midwest.
In addition to the convenience the platform offers in booking tee times, it also allows golfers to invite multiple people to golf events.
"Another frustration we had prior to GolfPipeline pertained to not knowing when a game was happening. We'd hear about it later and then wonder why we didn't get called," he said. "GolfPipeline allows a golfer to create a golf event at a specific course with a specific tee time and invite as many people as they'd like."
Everyone will receive a notification that they've been invited to play at a certain course, at a certain time, and the first three golfers to accept get placed in.
"Once the event is full, a second email will go out saying the event has been filled and that they can still book additional foursomes at the same course if they'd like to," Wroblewski said.
Users can even invite people or add placeholders to the game for people who aren't users of the web platform and aren't interested in signing up.
In addition, the web platform also allows users to keep track of their golf scores over an entire season and link directly to their USGA golf handicap. Users can set up golf profiles with as little or as much information as they want and even keep track of GolfPipeline friends and their games and scores.
"We've tried to make it as user-friendly as possible," Wroblewski said. "It's really about alleviating some of the frustrations of the game and giving golfers some modern tools for their golf game."

I enjoy these updates I live in texas so the only information i get on the minor league players is coming to message boards. Thanks for the effort.adonijah1510 wrote:Tonights updates wont be as detailed as before im actually in Yonkers, NY racing horses, but ill be updating between innings wont have the pitch count that will be about the only difference. I would love to go to more Shorebird games don't have the money for it. I live about 40 min from the stadium. I've been to all the minor league stadiums this season but Aberdeen plan on going on the 1st of September. I've been to about 6 O's games this year so far been to all the legends dates. If I had the money ild be down to Delmarva every night I didn't have to work, alot of the time I listen to their radio feed and take my notes. I started this thinking people would like to be able to read up on the birds on the farm on a more detailed level.

The Brooklyn Cyclones announced their 2011 coaching staff with the headline "Sweet Music on Coney Island," on Monday.
The headline of course refers to new manager Rich Donnelly new pitching coach Frank Viola, who will begin his coaching career with the Cyclones.
Viola the pitcher, holds a special place in my consciousness. I'm too young to remember 1986, but I'm not too young to remember Sweet Music. The hometown boy coming home to save the Mets? What could be better?
First, I learned about how players age and a little bit of the business of baseball from Viola. His acquisition (for Rick Aguilera, Tim Drummond, Kevin Tapani and David West) helped introduce me to the business of baseball where you could trade a truckload of players and prospects for one legitimately good one. It looked like a great deal for a year, when Viola was a stud in 1990: when he was 20-12, 2.67 ERA, 141 ERA+. Then a year later, Tapani and Aguilera helped lead the Twins to the 1991 World Series. (Despite the fact that I think I had like 12 David West Topps Rookie cards, he merely turned into a middling reliever.) The thing with Viola? He had a great first half in 1991 and then sucked it up in the second half going 3-10 with a 5.53 ERA and 61 strikeouts and 21 walks in 99.1 innings to finish up 13-15, with a 3.97 ERA, with an ERA+ of 92, his worst season since 1983. He chose Boston as a free agent, and pitched capably for the Red Sox for the next three years.
Second, and perhaps more importantly, Viola's nickname helped introduced me to the double-entendre. I'm grateful for both.
Since his retirement, Viola has taught high school and worked for NESN as an analyst. He's never coached professionals. He'll clearly be doing a lot of on the job learning this summer.
Viola is 21 years older than the Cyclones' new hitting coach, Bobby Malek. Malek made it up to AAA with the Mets in 2006 hitting .179/.220/.214 before he was released. Malek played 28 games for AA Jacksonville in 2008, then a Dodgers' affiliate, before retiring in May to begin coaching for the Mets in the GCL. He spent two years coaching for Kingsport, in the Appalachian League.
While Viola and Malek have a combined two and a half years as professional coaches between them, new skipper Rich Donnelly has 26 years in the big leaugues in a coaching career that began in 1972. He was a member of Jim Leyland's staff for 14 years, and won a World Series with the magical Marlins of 1997. He's been a roving instructor for the Pirates for the last three years.

SPRINGFIELD, Va. (WUSA9) -- Seventeen-year-old Maddie Wittich has a look of shock on her in one of the photos taken after the Boston Marathon bombings.
She can be seen in a red Richmond sweatshirt and is walking with her sisters and her mom who is being carried by Former New England Patriot Joe Andruzzi.
Julie Wittichhas a broken leg from the blast. Her three girls, somehowescapedinjury, but they will never forget the horror they saw.
"I"ve never been so scared, really really scared," said Maddie Wittich"I saw a person whose clothes were burned off lying on the ground."
They worried about their father, who was running the Marathon on his 49th birthday.
"Wedidn'tknow if he was OK."
They were about 15 feet away from the second blast . As they huddled in the doorway , a police officer told everyone to run away in case there were more bombs.
Julie Wittichsaid, "I could not walk... I can't walk."
Her two oldest daughters picked her up but it was her 16 year old Christine who carried her for blocks. That's when former NFL player helped carry Julie Wittichthe rest of the way to an ambulance.
"They sat me on a curb and a Harvard med student came over," said Julie Wittich. "One of the paramedics said 'Ma'am your leg is broken and then you have to go to the hospital. I didn't want to leave my kids."
But Maddie insisted. Now she and her younger sisters were on their own in a strange city, at dangerous time. Again, they were told to run.
The girls, eventually found their father, who was fine and they came home to Springfield yesterday.
"We are so fortunate... so many people aren't," saidJulie Wittich.
Julie is also thankful for fit children who were strong enough to carry their mom in a time of great need.

CANTON A Morristown woman stands accused of stealing nearly $500 from a Canton doctors office last year by falsifying bookkeeping documents, in one case for as little as $3, according to court documents.
Village police on Wednesday arrested Lucinda G. Elliott, 41, of 501 Main St., Morristown. She faces 24 counts of first-degree falsifying business records, a class E felony, and 24 counts of petit larceny, a class A misdemeanor, interim Canton Police Chief Victor N. Rycroft said.
Ms. Elliott worked in a doctors office at the E.J. Noble Building, 80 E. Main St. Police began an investigation in November after receiving reports of bookkeeping irregularities with the offices accounts receivable, Mr. Rycroft said.
Ms. Elliott was employed as a secretary and office manager for Dr. Colleen M. Livingston, court documents show. In October, Dr. Livingston told investigators, another employee informed her that Ms. Elliott reportedly was maintaining a duplicate set of documents.
A review of office records revealed that Ms. Elliott falsified records for two-dozen transactions between February and October 2012, in amounts ranging from $3 to $100, according to court documents, with many entries for $10 or $15. Ms. Elliott allegedly deleted entries for the original transactions and kept the cash, which totaled $498.
She was arraigned Wednesday before Canton Town Justice Christopher R. Curley and released on her own recognizance. She is to reappear before the court later this month to answer the charges.

BUFFALO, NY - In a difficult fiscal time, Erie County is looking at a surplus. County Executive Mark Poloncarz estimates the a surplus between $4 and $5 million.
One month ago, Poloncarz warned of cuts in services if the legislature didn't pass a property tax increase. The lawmakers opted to make cuts and spare homeowners a tax increase of 3.4%.
According to Poloncarz, when sales tax revenue figures are in for December 2012, he anticipates a surplus. However, he is still worried about the current fiscal year. "In the 2013 budget, which we're in right now, it uses $4.5 million of our piggy bank or fund balance, just to balance the budget."
Poloncarz said the worry for 2013 surrounds "the sales tax numbers we saw at the end of 2012. They are not high enough to carry over where we should be in 2013."

Actually, some states in the U.S. will recognize a "common law" marriage. (I have no idea for other countries.) But it's really pretty simple, actually. If you:
1) can legally get married
2) agree to get married
3) fuck
4) live together
and 5) tell people your married
then these states will recognize your marriage, without any sort of ordained minister. The idea is that marriage is a contract, and so if you agree to it and people rely on the fact that you're married, then it would (probably) be unequitable to many different parties to deny the legal status of the marriage.
So this means that we can have our marriage ceremony without having to deal with the priest/minister issue at all. Of course, a true Pastafarian marriage would have to be officiated by a Pirate Captain, preferably at sea.
I'm new here, but thats my $.02

His entire life was spent enjoying the Carbon County lifestyle.
He attended Carbon High School.
He worked for Price city, Utah Railway, Carbon School District, and never missed a day at Mad Man Basso's.
His work ethic was second to none.
But when he wasn't at work, you could find him with a deck of cards playing poker with his brothers, sisters and friends.
Jimmy loved his trips to Wendover and to the Bellagio with Spinuzzi in Vegas.
In the early years, he loved to hunt, fish and camp with the family. But in the later years, this was definitely replaced by the ring of a jackpot.

(Jessica) Basso, Price; Ross Henrie, Price; Todd (Kristen) Henrie, Wellington; Debbie Diamanti, Idaho; Carol (Kent) Marsing, Price; Kevin Basso, Wellington; brothers and sisters, Mary Christensen, Eleanor Haycock, Frank (Joyce) Basso, all of Price, Henry Basso, Salt Lake City; many loving grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Their love was truly a special love, one that two people in love should strive for. After 66 years of marriage, they never spent time apart.When you were around them, you could see how strong their love was.
Dad was self-employed in coal mining, saw mill, redimix concrete and trucking businesses. Mom was an immaculate homemaker with many talents, which she shared with everyone she knew.
Wonderful homemade meals were ever present and there was always room for one more at the table. Even in their later years, hard work was something they enjoyed. They devoted much of their time serving in the LDS Temple and in the service to others. Their example of unselfish giving, leaves us with a model to follow.
They both were preceded in death by their parents, Cyrus and Eliza Wilberg and Grant and Lillie Snow. They are survived by two sons, Reece (Joan) Wilberg and Drew (Dolly) Wilberg. Dad had three brothers who preceded him in death, Lamar Wilberg, Kenneth Wilberg and Ted Wilberg. He is survived by two sisters; Cloe Williams and Ruby Daniels.

|GE Jets Create Buzz in Asheville, Ashe County
|Written by Steve Frank
|Friday, 15 November 2013 11:20
There was excitement in Asheville yesterday—and anticipation in Ashe County—as GE Aviation, broke ground at the site of its new advanced composites factory near Asheville. GE's plans include expansion of their facilities in West Jefferson, as well, and new jobs at both plants over the next few years.
GE Aviation's executives involved in Composites Manufacturing were joined by Governor Pat McCrory and officials from the Asheville Area Chamber, Buncombe County, City of Asheville and NC Department of Commerce for the groundbreaking. The new 170,000-square-foot facility will be the first in the world to mass produce engine components made of advanced ceramic matrix composite materials. The GE release says the company will begin hiring at the new CMC components plant in 2014, and within five years, the workforce at the plant is expected to grow to more than 340 people.

In 1995, Connie and Michael Jackley experienced life's greatest pain as they lost their only child, Rachel, 21, to cancer. Several years later, when Connie was diagnosed with cancer herself, she did not have the desire to fight. Thankfully, Dr. James Watson, a surgical oncologist at Fox Chase Cancer Center, entered the picture and inspired her to keep fighting when she felt like she had nothing left to give. He performed multiple surgeries on Connie over the years to keep her alive and well. Connie now considers Dr. Watson a friend.
In the spring of 2002, at the age of 52, Connie began to develop complications due to menopause. She was in a great deal of discomfort and was plagued by excessive bleeding. Her gynecologist ordered a battery of tests to determine the root of the problem, which turned out to be uterine cancer.
Connie recalled being strongly encouraged by her employer to go to Fox Chase Cancer Center instead of a local hospital with a cancer division. "Thankfully I took his advice and I made an appointment with Dr. Edelson in Fox Chase's gynecological department," shared Connie. During the consultation, he noted Connie's family history of colon cancer. The doctor recommended that she have a colonoscopy and explained that since she was going to have a hysterectomy anyway, it would be the perfect time to take care of any problem with her colon as well.
"Sure enough, the colonoscopy showed a cancerous polyp," Connie said. "And as a result of the cancerous polyp, Dr. James C. Watson at Fox Chase came into my life!" During an extensive surgery, Dr. Watson performed a colon resection and hysterectomy. Following surgery, Connie did not require chemotherapy or radiation as all of the cancer was removed during both procedures.
"I remember being very impressed with Dr. Watson at our first meeting."
"Dr. Watson was always so good at explaining everything so well," recalled Connie. "He never made me feel like I was just another patient. He made me feel relaxed from day one.
"Fast forward to 2003, when my husband had to rush me to the local emergency room because I was experiencing extreme stomach pain," said Connie. The results of a CAT Scan helped doctors identify a pancreatic tumor.
"It was time to call in Dr. Watson once again, and I couldn't have been happier that he was able to help me."
Dr. Watson recommended another surgical procedure, this time a distal pancreatectomy (removal of the end of the pancreas), due to the size and location of the tumor. Connie was pleased with her recovery and again, decided not to have additional treatment due to her personal experience watching her daughter struggle through treatment.
Several years later, in 2005, Connie began to experience more gastrointestinal (specifically, bowel) issues. Her local gastroenterologist could not determine (after many colonoscopies and tests) why her bowel was not functioning properly.
"I actually called Dr. Watson in tears and begged him to help me and he was so wonderful, as usual."
Dr. Watson invited Connie back to Fox Chase for additional testing, as he had a sense of what might be wrong. He ordered an arteriogram, which identified the part of the bowel that stopped functioning. "It was back to the operating room to have more bowel taken out," shared Connie. Fortunately, no cancerous tissue was detected. Connie was extremely grateful to Dr. Watson for his foresight in determining what was going on.
Over the next 2 years, Connie continued with her regular doctor's visits, CAT scans and blood work. In 2007, a CAT scan again revealed another tumor. This time the tumor was located at the head of her pancreas. "I was at my wit's end," Connie recalled. "I felt like I had been through enough and I did not want to go ahead with any more surgeries."
Dr. Watson called Connie on several occasions, trying to convince Connie that he could help. He explained to Connie that she did have reasons to go through with the surgery. "He assured me, with a sense of genuine confidence, that I would come out of the surgery successfully with few side effects," she shared. Connie was grateful for Dr. Watson's personal concern for her situation and for taking the time to help her work through some of her non-surgical related issues. "Dr. Watson really cared about healing me - emotionally, not just physically."
After deliberating with her husband, Connie agreed to undergo another surgery. Although she felt the hospital stay was a bit lengthy, she was happy to report that in the end, she did quite well. She began taking enzymes each day to help digest her food, and, as before, she chose not to undergo additional treatment. "This was a very personal decision - one that was not recommended," she admitted. "But it was my choice. And my physicians respected that."
Following surgery, Connie continued to see Dr. Watson for regular exams who detected a lump in Connie's breast.
Once again Dr. Watson saves the day!"
A biopsy revealed cancer in Connie's breast. In March 2009, Dr. Richard Bleicher, a breast surgeon at Fox Chase, performed a double mastectomy on Connie. She chose to undergo breast reconstruction under the care of Dr. Neal Topham, also at Fox Chase. "I am doing well at this point and I am so relieved that I went through with the breast reconstruction."
"I really feel like Dr. Watson is my friend, not just my surgeon."
Connie wrapped up her story by thanking Dr. Watson for his dedication, respect and medical expertise. "Because of Dr. Watson, I am still here and I truly feel like I am accomplishing more in my life now than many healthy women who never had to go through any surgeries. I really feel like Dr. Watson is my friend, not just my surgeon. I just cannot say enough about him and about everyone at Fox Chase."

I've long felt that I coulda (shoulda) been a helluva horse jockey, but was unfairly discriminated against because of my height. I can relate to Chubbs or Big Irfan:
The 'four lions*' gang that planned the biggest terrorist atrocity the UK has faced in a generation was led by a 23-stone chemist deemed too fat to be a suicide bomber.
Nicknamed 'Chubbs' and 'Big Irfan' by his fellow plotters, it was Irfan Naseer's bulky frame that helped him to work on his bomb-making skills while at training camps in Pakistan.
The 31-year-old was too overweight to go on physical training exercises, and admitted he was mixing chemicals rather than 'running up and down the mountains with weapons'.
Naseer gained an A at A Level chemistry, and honed his skills during a four year pharmaceuticals course at Aston University in Birmingham, coming out with a 2:2 degree in 2003.
He barely worked afterwards and spent his time showing his fellow terrorists how to make a bomb out of sports injury treatments.
His fascination for science first began during experiments at school while studying for GCSE chemistry classes, when the teacher showed him how to distil chemicals with a Bunsen burner.
'When I was doing my GCSEs, one of the teachers did an experiment where he had a Bunsen burner and he threw a chemical on to the fire', he told the court.
*The other "lions" are named Irfan Khalid and Ashik Ali. Except there are only three of 'em.

The Carbon Dinos ended their football season with a final home game against Union on Wednesday night. It was another case of the final score not reflecting the real flavor of the game. The Dinos lost the game 28-6, but gave the Cougars everything they could muster despite having seven defensive and six offensive players out of the line-up due to injuries.
Union received the ball first and quickly broke free on the kick for a big gain. But that was called back because of a penalty and Carbon made the Cougars earn every inch of ground they gained. A former Carbon High student, JJ Morley, ran in the first score of the night for Union in the first quarter.
After two failed drives, Carbon's Kris Murdock stepped in front of a Cougar pass and returned the ball 62 yards on the interception for the Dinos. The quarter ended 7-6 in favor of Union. The second period was one of defense as neither team could do much. But late in the half, Dakota Cisneros connected with his receiver and suddenly the Dinos were knocking on the door at the Union two yard line. With less than two minutes to play it looked like Carbon could take a lead into the locker room.
But Union forced a fumble and drove down field to score. Carbon went back on offense and Union intercepted a pass and scored again. That few minutes were the turning point of the game.
A recharged Dino team came out of the locker room and played hard in the final half but could not seem to get a solid drive going. Defensively, they kept Union from doing anything in the third quarter, but minutes into the fourth, the Cougars finished off a drive to score their final goal. The rest of the game continued to be a defensive stand-off.
Coach Jeff Blanc had a lot of kudos for his team for both the game and the season. He began by pointing of the effort of several of his players including Connor Rowley on defense with 14 tackles and a sack. He also noted Daulton Nelson had nine tackles and a sack; as well as Dakota Cisneros' effort that resulted in eight tackles.
On offense, he praised Tanner Gagnon who pulled in six receptions and was in on some big plays. He noted his offensive line was able to block and give quarterback Cisneros more time in the pocket. Colin Moynier also finished with two receptions for 31 yards.
He and the coaching staff are already excited about next season. They feel like they really laid the foundation for the program and it will continue to build. They will have eight starting defensive and seven offensive players returning for next season.
Blanc said the thing he was most proud of is how well the team represented Carbon High and the community this season. He said they did not have one disciplinary problem all season and the team always displayed a great attitude on and off the field.
He reminded his fourteen seniors that they can take pride in what they started this season. Blanc feels strongly that they will be able to look back and see the fruits of their efforts in a much improved program in the next several years. They also were instumental in getting the Dinos their first victory in over two years.
As for Blanc, he is planning on returning for many seasons to come to build a great football program.
