Show Volume XXIII Issue XVI The Ogden Valley news Page 11 February 1, 2016 Battling the Winter Itch… By Baily Kroening After a bumper-crop of much-needed white gold following several years of below-average snowfall, most of us are now experiencing a case of fullblown dry, itchy winter skin woes. However, with the help of Simply Eden, there are several ways to combat this problem, which most of us face living in such a dry state. While staying hydrated can help, there are several ways to help your skin topically as well. As much as everyone loves a good, old-fashioned hot shower during these cold winter times, skin actually prefers a more tepid solution. Hot tubs, long hot showers, and hot baths feel glorious, yet actually strip your skin of its natural oils. With its natural fats and oils, goat milk lowers the pH found in soaps, making goat-milk soap an ideal solution for dry skin, even benefitting those with more oily skin. Because of the natural fats and oils, and vitamins and minerals found naturally in goat milk, it is also an ideal ingredient for lotions. Goat milk is a humectant, which prevents moisture loss, while also possessing the ability to penetrate the dermal layer of the skin for deep moisturizing benefits. Consumers are always on the lookout for that luxurious product that’s going to leave their skin feeling soft, moisturized, and looking great—you can find such products at Simply Eden—a business that began locally here in Ogden Valley. Simply Eden’s goat milk soaps, lotions, body mousses, and much more, are sure to keep your skin happy, even through the harshest, dry winter weather—and summer weather too! It also protects skin from the wear and tear of daily activities. New, in store in Eden, are Simply Eden’s therapeutic and fun-fragranced bath bombs, such as Sweet Dreams, Pineview Beaches, Muscle Eze, and more. Sweet Dreams combines lavender and vanilla essential oils, making it perfect for a calming bath before bedtime. Pineview Beaches incorporates everything locals wish Pineview actually was—fresh, clean goodness, which can be applied without worry to the skin. An ideal, soothing ocean beach right in your personal bath! On par with the trends, Simply Eden also has Beard Oil. Keeping your beard soft and manageable has never been easier! Packed with nourishing oils, such as hemp seed and apricot, it is a simple way to keep both your beard and your sweetheart happy! Taking care of your body isn’t just for adults; Simply Eden also carries baby products, including Bum Balm with zinc! Also a favorite—talcfree baby powder, which is non-toxic and carefully crafted for even the most sensitive skin. It’s a safe way to heal and prevent skin irritation for children . . . and adults.

Unlike those decisions, Cape’s new grant explicitly allows the company to fly drones in an area wider than a closed set and near people participating in the intended purpose of the drone’s operation, including skiers, provided they are briefed beforehand on the operations and provide consent. “We have worked closely with the FAA since 2014 to ensure regulatory compliance of our service and are proud of our 100 percent safety record to date across thousands of flights around the world,” said Louis Gresham, President of Cape Productions. “Safety and compliance have been our top priority since Cape began providing drone services to customers, and we highly encourage any business or individual considering working with a drone company to check whether its operations are within the limitations of the company’s 333 exemption, and that all local, regional, and federal aviation requirements are met.” For more information, visit www.cape.com or <www.powdermountain.com> operator in the country authorized to fly drones within 500 feet of customers and in an area wider than a closed set. “As the first consumer drone video service to launch in the U.S., Cape is excited to move forward under the FAA’s new grant and continue to serve as a leader in the commercial drone industry,” said Jason Soll, CEO of Cape Productions. “This decision paves the way for Cape’s continued growth and reach into a wide variety of action sports, and also sets the foundation for an entirely new category of legal drone operations in the U.S. Cape now has the ability to offer applications for both consumers and businesses that were impossible under the standard aerial data collection and closed set filming Section 333 exemptions that other operators currently work under.” The FAA’s amendment clarifies and streamlines the regulatory requirements governing Cape’s service and places the company’s operations in a unique class apart from other companies authorized to perform outdoor aerial data collection and closed set filming. Previous decisions forbade drone operations closer than 500 feet to anyone other than the pilot and visual The Stars Speak: Celebrating Dark Skies A large, getmore-chairsquick crowd of nearly 70 gathered in the Ogden Valley Library in Huntsville a snowy evening after the start of the New Year to hear from supporters and nominators of the accreditation of North Fork Park as the world’s 21st International Dark Sky Park. Speakers included Representative Gage Froerer, Commissioner Matt Bell, Mayor Brent Taylor (N. Ogden), and Weber State Professors Stacy Palen (Physics) and Jeremy Bryson (Geography). Zach Thomas and Janet Muir of Eden gave a presentation, showing common- sense dark sky fixtures and bulbs that can be purchased and installed to help eliminate light pollution. Premiered was the stunning, time-lapse video of the night skies over the Grand Teton National Park; its accreditation team is being assisted by that of North Fork Park. The dark sky resources of national and state parks appear to have been moved nearer the top of the agenda. Expected the first half of 2016 are accreditations of Glacier National Park, Grand Canyon National Park, Goblin Valley State Park, and Dead Horse Point State Park.
