Utahns for Ethical Government is a group of Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and unaffiliated voters who have prepared an initiative for placement on the November 2010 general election ballot. The initiative would establish an Independent Ethics Cornmission and a strict code of ethical conduct for the Utah Legislature. Among our supporters are former Governor Olene Walker and 39 former legislators from both major political parties. See our supporters link for more information. Legislators work for and are accountable to us, the voters, not the other way around, and the legislature has not been responsive to the public's desire for real ethics reform. Signing our initiative petition is a way to show the Legislature that voters care about leg- WEATHER f ----, THURSDAY RAIN / SNOW SHOWERS HIGH: 49 LOW: 25 FRIDAY 7- •-•.—....--, HIGH: 45 LOW: 21 RAIN / SNOW SHOWERS SATURDAY MOSTLY SUNNY HIGH: 51 LOW: 23 SUNDAY MOSTLY SUNNY ,‹t MOSTLY SUNNY 1000 Full Color HIGH: 50 LOW: 28 BUSINESS CARDS SPECIAL!

The books will be given to young children after visiting the doctor or the health department for health concerns or immunizations. This project was designed to promote literacy across Garfield County. Realizing how important it is to have books in the homes of young children, the chapter organized the book drive and knew that the clinics and health department would be great places to reach children of all ages. The PHS FCCLA chapter would like to thank the generous businesses and community members of Panguitch for their numerous book donations. Because of the kindness of the people of Panguitch and FCCLA chapter members, the Leaping Into Literacy Book Drive was a huge success. We were able to gather and donate almost 900 books to the children of Garfield County. As a chapter we would like to especially thank Joe's Main Street Market, Leland's Chevron, Zion's Bank, Heather Allen, A-OK Tree Service, Subway, Panguitch Drug, Matt and Genny Houston, Frito Lay , and Liz Unselt for your generous money donations and the support of our project.

ELK TESTS POSITIVE FOR CWD Samples from big game animals taken this past hunting season turned up something never seen in Utah before—an elk with chronic wasting disease. The cow elk—along with five buck deer—tested positive for CWD. The six animals were taken on units in Utah where CWD has been found in past years. CWD was not found in any new areas in Utah this past fall. "Chronic wasting disease is most prevalent in deer, but sometimes elk and even moose get it," says Leslie McFarlane, wildlife disease coordinator for the Division of Wildlife Resources. Everyone in the world was programmed by the place they were born, hemmed in by their beliefs, but you had to at least try to grow your own brain Scott Westerfeld THE GARFIELD COUNTY INSIDER is owned and operated by Snapshot Multimedia and is distributed weekly to all of Garfield County. Its purpose is to inform residents about local issues and events. Articles submitted from independent writers are not necessarily the opinion of Snapshot Multimedia. We sincerely hope you enjoy the paper and encourage input on ideas and/or suggestions for the paper. Thank you for your support. The cow elk was taken last November on the La Sal Mountains in southeastern Utah. Three of the five deer were also taken on the La Sal Mountains. The two remaining deer were taken on the Central Mountains unit in central Utah. DWR biologists collected samples from more than 1,100 deer, 37 moose and close to 370 elk this past season. Since the fall of 2002, the DWR has collected and tested samples from nearly 15,000 mule deer. Of the nearly 15,000 samples, only 48 deer have tested Multimedia positive for CWD. Thirtynine of those 48 deer were taken on the La Sal Mountains. CWD is fatal to deer, elk and moose. But there's no evidence the disease can be transmitted to humans. More information about CWD is available at wildlife.utah.gov/diseases/cwd.
