    Fire Restrictions Still On

    logo_yavapaicountyVerde Valley AZ (July 8, 2014) – The monsoon rains have begun, and Northern Arizona has received some moisture. Unfortunately, not all areas have received significant amounts to reduce the potential for wildfires. With continue rain events over the next couple weeks the moisture in live fuels will rise and the fire potential will lower. Currently, the Yavapai County Fire Ban, as well as the Prescott National Forest fire restrictions remains in effect.

    Under Yavapai County restrictions all campfires and open flames, such as tiki lamps, are banned. The ban also prohibits the outdoor use of equipment that generates open flames or a spark. This restricts the use of welding equipment and chain saws. Residential propane and natural gas barbeques with covers are permitted; they must be attended at all times. The full version of the county’s fire ban can be found at:

    Stage II Fire Restrictions are in place on the Prescott National Forest. In general, these restrictions prohibit campfires and smoking, chainsaws, welding, explosives, internal combustion engines without spark arrestors, fireworks and the discharging of firearms. Gas grills and gas fire places (fires that can be “turned off”) are still allowed under Stage II restrictions on the forest. Violation of any fire restriction orders is punishable by a maximum $5,000.00 fine or six months imprisonment or both.

    The Prescott National Forest restrictions press release can be viewed at: http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/prescott/news-events/?cid=STELPRD3801260

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
