Besides the yield signs on the right-hand side - in the curb area - on the four streets entering the roundabout, the traffic engineer added yield signs on the left side of the streets as well.

The new signs were bolted into the asphalt Friday. By Sunday, they all had fallen down.

The big tent: The First Unitarian Church of Salt Lake City's mission statement notes that it values free thought and inclusive membership and promises to seek understanding in an atmosphere of love and mutual respect.

So it makes perfect sense that a church that promotes many liberal causes, including protecting the environment, and a few years ago passed a resolution opposing the importation of nuclear waste to Utah, would have as a candidate for its board of trustees Carol Fineagan, the vice president and communications director of EnergySolutions.

Breathe deep: Lakers coach Phil Jackson has been quoted in the media in the past complaining about the exhaust fumes from the motorcycle the Jazz mascot "Bear" drives onto the court to amp up the crowd before games at EnergySolutions.

This is a guy from Los Angeles.

Culture wars: The Jazz played a rare home game Sunday against the Lakers, and a different fan demographic from that of games played on other days was quite apparent.

The beer lines at Sunday's game were significantly up, while the lines at the ice cream stands were significantly down.

Rules are rules: A flier distributed at the Utah Republican Party Convention on Saturday urged delegates to vote against a resolution to change a party bylaw and release delegates committed to Mitt Romney so they could vote for whomever they want at the national convention this summer.

The flier said it was "paid for by Lowell Nelson and other devoted Republicans who play by the rules made by people who make up the rules as they go along."

Speaking of resolutions: Delegates at the Salt Lake County Republican Convention May 8 passed a resolution on energy independence that states, "Utah alone has enough oil and natural gas resources to supply the United States for tens of thousands of years."

Two delegates - a geologist and an engineer - stood to speak against the resolution because, they said, that statement was blatantly false.

But they were talking to Utah Republicans, who have shown disdain for science getting in the way of ideological blustering.

The resolution cited as its source "members of the Utah State Legislature," the same body where the statement once was made that since there is a dog species, and there is a cat species, but there is no "dat" species, the theory of evolution obviously is bunk.
