Keyes of Casper (formerly Miss Verna Keays of Buffalo), was adopted by the fourteenth legislature on January 31, 1917. The Great Seal of Wyoming is the heart of the flag. On the bison, once the monarch of the plains, is the seal representing the custom of branding. The colors of the State Flag are the same as those of the National Flag. The red border represents the Indian; also the blood of the pioneers who gave their lives reclaiming the soil. White is the emblem of purity and uprightness over Wyoming. Blue, the color of the sky and mountains, is symbolic of fidelity, justice, and virility.

  • Wyoming's Enduring Rural Western Image Was Created by Cultural
    Wyoming's enduring rural western image was created by cultural forces as longstanding and national in scale as the forces that left Wyoming economically underdeveloped. State promotion of Wyoming's traditional image in the inter- ests of economic development is not nostalgic under these circumstances. diversified economy, including both rural and urban development, were rapidly and consistently accompanied by cultural images of the state as "western." For insiders and outsiders alike, these images identified Wyoming with beautiful natural scenery and the world of the range cowboy-in short, as an undeveloped, even undevelopable place. The cultural forces that shaped Wyoming's state identity have been as powerful, longstanding, and national in scale as the economic forces that tapped Wyoming's resources but failed to plant large urban manufacturing centers there. Any successful effort to create new images of the state and to develop a viable economy must begin by understanding the national scope and resonance of Wyoming's cowboy image. After a hundred years, Wyoming state officials were left holding the bag of antici- pated progress that never materialized. Why did this happen?State economic planners have grappled with the question, but their answers have traditionally laid the blame on economic forces that were either beyond the state's control, or were misshapen by state tax and economic development policies.' Contemporary state planners have focused on identifying what is structurally wrong with Wyoming's economy, em- phasizing-for obvious reasons-what the state could do differently to promote busi- ness, to create new kinds of jobs (especially in telecommunications and information --"--------""--" FRIEDAKNOBLOCHteaches American Studies at the University of Wyoming.

  • Lower Paleozoic, Moxa Arch, Southwest Wyoming
    Stratigraphic evaluation of reservoir and seal in a natural CO2 field: Lower Paleozoic, Moxa Arch, southwest Wyoming Ranie Lynds1*, Erin Campbell-Stone1, Thomas P. Becker 2, and Carol D. Frost1 1Department of Geology and Geophysics, University of Wyoming, 1000 E. University Ave., Laramie, Wyoming 82071, U.S.A. 2ExxonMobil Production Company, 396 West Greens Road, Houston, Texas 77067, U.S.A. * Correspondence should be addressed to: [email protected] A BSTRACT The Moxa Arch in the Greater Green River Basin, southwestern Wyoming, hosts two potential reservoirs for CO2 sequestration. The Bighorn Dolomite and Madison limestone are interpreted to be independent reservoirs based on differing CO2 compositions and production histories; the two reservoirs are separated by Devonian carbonates, siliciclastic rocks, and evaporites. On the Moxa Arch, the Bighorn ranges in thickness from 67 to 120 m with porosities from 3 to 15 percent. The massive buff-colored Steamboat Point Member comprises the bulk of the subsurface Bighorn in southwest Wyoming. Mottled dolostone (light-colored patches with higher porosity and dark-colored patches with lower porosity) is very common and is presumably the result of preferential early dolomitiza- tion of bioturbation. Core study suggests that this factor affects gas saturation and storage in this extensive reservoir. The lower Member of the Jefferson Formation is the most probable seal within the Devonian stratigra- phy. Strata of this member are interpreted to have been deposited in a shallow basin semi-isolated from the deeper marine environment to the west. 87Sr/86Sr isotopic analyses of anhydrite sampled from Moxa Arch well cuttings support the interpretation of a depositional environment exposed to a mixture of seawater and fresh- water.
