AUGUSTA, GA. — Without getting too deep into the psychological layers of who they are, perhaps the way Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson chose to spend their Tuesday at Augusta National Golf Club is illustrative of how different they are.
On a raw, gusty day that felt more like winter on the Irish coast than April in Augusta, Woods, dressed in all black, spent his morning practicing in the wind that raked across the property.
In his clinical way, Woods determined there was nothing to be gained by playing Augusta National in conditions that were a world apart from what they will be when the Masters begins on Thursday. He chose, instead, to focus on polishing edges.
Meanwhile, Mickelson, dressed in shades of gray, played 18 windblown holes with U.S. Amateur runner-up Drew Kittleson, insisting neither the wind nor the temperature (in the high 40s) were as uncomfortable as all those hands stuffed into pockets would suggest.
"It wasn't bad at all," Mickelson said, his cheeks reddened by the wind.
Either way, it was a prelude to what is to come this week when Woods and Mickelson, the No. 1 and No. 2 players in the world, respectively, chase the year's first major championship.
It is striking to realize they have now played 30 Masters between them, Tiger winning four times and Mickelson twice. It seems like yesterday they were the new kids. Now they're being asked to weigh in on the teenagers in the field, who grew into their games watching Woods and Mickelson at Augusta.
Each has had his Masters moments -- Tiger's record win in 1997, his slow-motion chip-in at the 16th hole in 2005 and Mickelson's leap upon winning his first major five years ago come to mind.
Their paths have crossed at Augusta but never spectacularly collided on Sunday. When both have finished in the top five -- it has happened four times -- they have yet to have a defining showdown on a Masters weekend, though they were paired in the final round in 2001.
They have dueled at Doral and in the Boston suburbs, trading victories, but their rivalry has been more imagined than real. Woods said he has gone head to head more often with Ernie Els in majors when, in reality, he has probably done more direct damage to Sergio Garcia in majors.
When Mickelson won the green jacket for a second time in 2006, it was Woods who presented the garment to him.
"I do have a picture of him sliding that jacket on me," Mickelson said, smiling.
Despite Mickelson's missed cut at Houston last week, a performance he seemed content to brush off, both arrive here intent on winning. Mickelson has won twice already this year, and Woods reaffirmed his place as the game's reigning master when he birdied the 72nd hole to win the Arnold Palmer Invitational 10 days ago in Orlando, Fla.
Asked if, despite a layoff of nearly nine months, he expects to win this week, Woods said simply, "Always."
Mickelson, asked to ponder the possibility of playing with Tiger on Sunday afternoon, said, "I think he's going to be there ... and I believe I'm going to be there."
For Mickelson, the challenge is driving the ball consistently, not letting his passion for power lead to too many wayward tee shots on a course that isn't as forgiving as it was a decade ago.
In the four years since his last victory here, Woods has struggled to hole enough putts.
When Woods drained the 16-footer to beat Sean O'Hair in the dying light at Bay Hill, it was another instance of him making the extraordinary appear routine.
"You know if you let him have that putt on the last hole or you let him have a chance, he's going to beat you. Whereas, you don't know that about anyone else," Ogilvy said of Woods.
In searching to explain the difference between Woods and Mickelson, Ogilvy went to Tiger's last Masters victory in 2005. After his chip-in birdie at the 16th, Woods bogeyed the 17th and 18th holes to fall into a playoff with Chris DiMarco, a rare wobble.
On the first extra hole, Woods hit two perfect shots and holed the birdie putt to win.
"Phil would do less than that because ... he's more human than Tiger," Ogilvy said.

Freeburg Community High School is the first public high school in St. Clair or Madison counties to launch a one-to-one computer initiative -- a plan to have a computer in the hands of every student.
Freeburg School District 77 provided a Samsung Google Chromebook to each of its 620 students.
"I thought it would give kids access to resources that, without it, they wouldn't have because of access to the Internet," said Andrew Lehman, superintendent of Freeburg District 77. "It allows kids to be more flexible in learning, in terms of when they access materials and how."
District 77 acquired the Chromebooks through a lease agreement, at a cost of $90 per student per year, for three years. The lease agreement is with a North Carolina company for about $183,000. To help offset the cost, Lehman said the district increased the registration fee for students by $25 per school year -- from $65 to $90.
School districts with larger public high schools, such as Belleville East and West and East St. Louis Senior High, have the challenge of coming up with the money to provide electronic devices to thousands of students.
Districts with a large percentage of low-income students, such as East St. Louis School District 189, face another hurdle. They don't have the option of increasing student registration fees, the way Freeburg did. In fact, East St. Louis doesn't charge its students any fees to attend school.
School districts also need to find money for infrastructure upgrades to support an influx of computers and train teachers to be proficient with the new technology.
Belleville School District 201 leaders are working toward putting more technology in the hands of students. The school board recently approved a $239,000 line of credit with the Bank of Belleville for technology upgrades throughout the district.
Assistant Superintendent Brian Mentzer said technology will be upgraded during the next two to three years. The district has up to $239,000 to spend on the project. The district will use lease levy money -- a portion of local property taxes -- to pay off the loan, according to Mentzer.
This year, the district plans to upgrade its computer servers and start trial runs of some individual electronic devices for both students and teachers. The technology upgrade schedule includes updating the equipment in computer labs at both Belleville West and East at a cost of $88,328, and about $100,000 for 371 Samsung Google Chromebook devices -- 161 for Belleville West and 210 for Belleville East.
District 201 officials aren't convinced one device for all students is the way to go.
"We think there needs to be access to a lot of technology that's just as diverse as the courses that we teach," Superintendent Jeff Dosier said.
"Every department, every kid, their interest is different," said Mentzer, the assistant superintendent. "A one-size-fits-all approach is probably not in our district's best interest at this point."
District 201 has 750 computers available to the 2,500 students at Belleville East, according to instructional technologist Joe Nesbit, which means roughly one computer for every three students. These computers are not assigned to individual students and are available in computer labs and classrooms throughout the school. Nesbit said Belleville West has a similar computer-to-student ratio.
East St. Louis School District 189 also is working to increase the number of computers available to its 1,482 students at East St. Louis Senior High School. Information technology director Abe Loveless said the school's main campus and its Career and Technical Education building have 422 computers/tablets available for student use.
Loveless said the district plans to set up three more student computer labs -- two in the library and one in the east wing of the high school -- with 32 computers in each.
Once the three new computer labs are up and running, East St. Louis Senior High will have roughly one computer for every three students.
Mascoutah High School doesn't have a one-to-one computer initiative. However, it does have a large number of computers available to its 1,035 students. Mascoutah School District 19 director of technology Debra Parkinson said about 850 computers are available to students at the high school, which has 20 computer labs and up to five computers in every classroom. That equates to roughly five computers for every six students.
"Our district strives to provide technology tools to support daily student learning," Parkinson said.
One-to-one in action
Students in Julie Klazynski's Algebra 2 class at Freeburg High recently used their Chromebooks to graph answers to word problems. The freshmen and sophomores worked in small groups to solve the problems and graph their solutions using the free website desmos.com.
Assistant Principal Kara Harris praised the netbooks for bringing students together and allowing them to collaborate on everyday work and larger projects. "We make sure they work with each other and communicate," she said.
Students in Klazynski's class compared graphs displayed on their netbook screens by holding them side-by-side to ensure they had the same answers.
Sophomore Natalie Huskey, 16, of Freeburg, said she enjoys using the Chromebooks. "They are easier. You don't have to go to the computer lab anymore," she said. "It's more efficient."
She also likes that everything she needs is on the device. "You don't have to worry about losing papers," Natalie said. "It's almost impossible to lose stuff."
Sophomore Megan Schaller, 15, of Freeburg, said the Chromebooks, which students are permitted to take home, make homework a lot easier. "It's helped me doing homework," she said. "If I don't know something, I can look it up (on the Internet)."
Social science teacher Julie Tedford had students in her consumer economics class use the Chromebooks to investigate stocks and build a portfolio online using Google Finance -- www.google.com/finance.
"It gives them an idea of how they might invest in the future," Tedford said.
Students were given $50,000 to invest how they saw fit, and Tedford said they would track their portfolio online to see how well it performed over a short window of time. Occasionally, to get her students' attention, Tedford asked them to "put the lids (tops) down" on their netbooks.
With the use of Chromebooks, Freeburg High School Principal Greg Frerking said, instruction can become "more student-centered" and "project-based."
"It raises the level of engagement for kids," he said.
There is a learning curve for veteran teachers when it comes to technology. Tedford said this year feels like her first year of teaching all over again. However, she appreciates Freeburg High taking "a leap" and getting technology in the hands of every student.
To protect the district's investment in the Chromebooks, Lehman said students had the option to buy third-party insurance for $31 per year. He said a "vast majority" of students bought the insurance, which fully covers the cost of stolen computers and accidental damages.
If a student does not have insurance, the student and his or her family are responsible for repairs or replacement of the Chromebook, according to Lehman.
Bring your own device
District 201 is fine-tuning its bring-your-own-device policy, which is expected to go before the school board for approval early next year. "Our biggest concern with allowing that is the use of the outside networks," said Dosier, the superintendent.
Belleville East Principal Stephanie Posey said teachers at East "do some cool things with technology," in particular using applications on students' smart-phones.
At Belleville East and West high schools, students are permitted to use their phones at certain times throughout the school day and when teachers give them permission, according to Posey.
East social studies teacher Keith Padgett said he sometimes has students use a phone app called Puppet Pals to create characters and craft a play. "Students end up making the lesson themselves. It's very effective," he said. "To me, technology helps bring history alive to kids in more ways than used to be possible."
East St. Louis District 189 Assistant Superintendent Sue McGown said the district is exploring the option of allowing students to use smart-phones at the high school. "We are always looking at ways to utilize technology in the classroom," she said.

World-renowned primatologist and conservationist Jane Goodall, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and UN Messenger of Peace, will deliver an address entitled "Making a Difference" 7:30 p.m. Thursday, April 11, 2013, in Kamine Gymnasium, Kirby Sports Center. A book signing will follow the lecture.
Her address is the College's Thomas Roy and Lura Forrest Jones Visiting Lecture for 2012-13. The event is free but tickets are required. (Update: The supply of tickets has been exhausted. The lecture will be televised live in Colton Chapel; no tickets for this are needed.)
The lecture will be streamed live on www.lafayette.edu. A link will be available on the homepage.
Rachel Brummel, assistant professor of environmental studies, will present "Conservation and Complexity: Examining the work of Jane Goodall and the Jane Goodall Institute," noon, Wednesday, April 3, in the Gendebien Room of Skillman Library.
Later that day, a documentary film about Goodall will be screened 7 p.m. in the Farinon Center's Limburg Theater.
Goodall, a native of England, first set foot in what is today Tanzania's Gombe National Park more than 50 years ago. Little did she know at the time that she was about to embark on a groundbreaking chimpanzee behavioral study that would rock the scientific community and redefine our understanding of animals and, ultimately, ourselves. Likewise, she probably never imaged that she would one day leave Gombe and begin a quest to empower others to make the world a better place for people, animals, and the environment we all share.
In her speech, Goodall will bring her audience into the world of the Gombe chimpanzees, from her early observations and experiences to the latest news and stories from the field. She also will share information about the work of the Jane Goodall Institute, which continues her pioneering research. Celebrating its 36th anniversary in 2013, the institute is a global leader in the effort to protect chimpanzees and their habitats. It also is widely recognized for establishing innovative community-centered conservation and development programs in Africa and for its global environmental and humanitarian youth program, Jane Goodall's Roots & Shoots, which Goodall founded with a group of Tanzanian students in 1991. Roots & Shoots connects hundreds of thousands of youth in more than 120 countries who take action to improve the planet for all living things.
Goodall travels an average 300 days per year, speaking about the threats facing chimpanzees, other environmental crises, and her reasons for hope that humankind will solve the problems it has imposed on the earth. Goodall's honors include the French Legion of Honor, Medal of Tanzania, and Japan's prestigious Kyoto Prize. In 2002, she was appointed to serve as a United Nations Messenger of Peace and in 2003, she was named a Dame of the British Empire.

Did you know that the San Francisco 49ers are playing the Baltimore Ravens this Super Bowl Sunday?! Are you ready for the big day - or more importantly, is your wallet ready? Don't worry, Patch has you covered.
According to Nerdwallet, consumers this year will be shelling out more money than last year - at least in game tickets, party staples and team jerseys. If you don't have your tickets yet, it's probably just as well. The average market price is $3,152 - up from $2,900 in 2012. This might not be the year to travel to the game anyway.
So do you have the Super Bowl party planned? Have you got your wings yet? If not, don't stress. The reported shortage of wings is not as bad as has been reported, but you will have to pay a little more.
This year, the average price for a pound of wings is $2.52, up from $1.97 last year. It does make the great wing heist a little easier to understand.
The good news when it comes to the cost of Super Bowl 2013, however, is in the electronics, according to Nerdwallet.
If you're one of the millions of fans that wants to score a new TV to see the big game on, you'll get more bang for your buck this year than in any other Super Bowl season.
Prices for a 32-inch TV dropped to all time lows in 2012 and have continued to drop this year. January this year is a good time for HDTV buying. It is typically a lean month for sales and merchants reportedly are willing to offer deep discounts. Couple that with concern in the industry that the TV market might be oversaturated due to mobile screens replacing the second and third television households used to own, now could be the right time to invest. Nerdwallet recommends you check out online coupon codes if you're buying online, and if you visit an offline store, try to negotiate on price.
Consumer confidence in America has taken a beating recently. Reuters/University of Michigan index of consumer sentiment, a measure of consumer attitudes about their personal finances and the state of the economy, dropped on Jan. 18 to a one-year low, but that's unlikedly to matter when it comes to the Super Bowl, right?
Enjoy the game!

This was really scrumptious! After reading the reviews I took the advice of changing the amounts and used whole 16 oz bag of noodles, 12 oz sour cream and 8 oz cream cheese which I mixed in with the noodles first before layering, then used 1 1/2 lbs of meat. I also used 26 oz of sauce which I think really made the difference in it not being too dry. I like lots of garlic too and only used 1/2 white onion that I cooked first! Fit perfectly in 9x13 pan and the cheese didn't overflow! Delish and my 5 yr old loved it!
I am an onion lover but this was too much...however, I didn't realize it until I tried a bite. Plus, it didn't seem that the meat/sauce mixture could cover the amount of noodles the recipe called for (maybe double the meat/sauce or reduce the noodles?) nor did it layer as nicely as I would have hoped. Not bad...but I'm not sure if I will make again.
The measurements for this recipe aren't even close to serving 11 people. There wasn't even enough of it to fit in a 9x13 pan. I put it in a square 8x8 pan. You'd need to use a 16 oz bag of egg noodles and double everything else except the onions. No way this fits into a 9x13 pan. I just stared at it in disbelief when I started assembling it. Also, it would be easier to mix the noodles with the sour cream/cream cheese mixture before assembling it. I found several of the noodles once baked were dry with no sauce on them. The taste is ok, it seems to be missing something though. May want to experiment with spices you know you like. I didn't add anything to it, made the recipe just like it appears and I was pretty disappointed. I *may* make it again, but will make some big changes.

By BRADEN LAMMERS
The Jeffersonville City Council mapped out the cuts it plans to make at a special meeting Monday to pull the budget within the reductions needed as a result of circuit breaker tax caps.
The city was forced to cut $3.25 million out of its budget to cover the reductions as a result of hitting the tax caps. The state of Indiana limits how much money can be collected in property taxes. It limits property taxes for individual homeowners at 1 percent of the assessed value of the property, 2 percent for rental properties and 3 percent for businesses. Any amount over the percentages cannot be collected by the taxing unit.
Indiana's Department of Local Government Finance approved Jeffersonville's 2013 general fund budget at $25.6 million, the same amount at which it was submitted by the council. The Parks Department budget before the tax caps totaled $2.7 million, and the Sanitation Department's budget totaled $2.99 million.
With the tax-cap hit taken out of all of the budgets that were approved for the city, the total amount Jeffersonville has to operate on for 2013 was $28 million. In 2012, the city was forced to cut $3.5 million out of the city budget to account for the caps.
The largest cuts were made to the city's parks department at $349,202, and the city's sanitation department at $423,823. Cuts to the parks department also included $245,500 that was cut when the city received its 1782 notice.
According to a worksheet provided by City Controller Amy Deering, the parks department's major cut came in its capital outlay line item. The total amount cut was $594,702, which reduced the total for 2013 in the line item to $858,119.
Shifting of employees resolved the cuts that needed to be made to the city's sanitation department.
Stephanie Miller, administrative assistant to the Jeffersonville street commissioner, explained that 16 of the department's 38 employee salaries should not be in the sanitation department's budget.
"[Former City Controller Monica Harmon] for some reason, I really don't know why, moved all of the employees to sanitation, which has caused a big problem to our sanitation budget," Miller said. "By moving those employees back to motor vehicle ... it will also take the pressure off that budget."
The 16 employees that were included in the sanitation department's budget work in the city's motor vehicle department.
"I don't think it'll be a problem, they have plenty of money in motor vehicle," Miller said.
With the cuts from the two city departments, the city council looked to addressing a remainder of $2.47 million to cut out of the general fund.
Deering explained that she and Corporation Attorney Les Merkley, in meetings with the department heads, were able to agree to another $1.79 million in cuts.
The remainder of $679,220 was the amount the council was looking to address Monday.
City Council agreed to across-the-board cuts for performance-based pay, which allows department heads to give their employees raises in a given year. As the council continued to comb through the city's general fund budget, they went through each department's line item budget to identify additional reductions.
Among some of the cuts made were for travel and training to several departments, including the Jeffersonville Police Department and the Jeffersonville Fire Department. The council cut its own budget by reducing unemployment and by cutting its capital outlays line item, which the council had set aside for paving and sidewalk construction.

Is there a faith, as regards magical thinking, that is ideal – that we should strive to develop?

Dogs may be asymptomatic or may be presented for nonspecific clinical signs. How long dogs or cats might be neutropenic before
showing clinical signs is unknown, but the duration from the onset of illness to the time of referral ranged from three to
180 days (median = 46 days) in one retrospective case series.5 Commonly reported clinical signs include lethargy, lameness (possibly shifting), and anorexia.16 Less commonly reported signs include diarrhea, vomiting, and hypersalivation.2,3,11
History taking and physical examination
Given that infections and drug administration are the most common causes of neutropenia, history taking and physical examinations
need to be directed at gathering information relevant to these areas.
Physical examinations need to be directed at detecting any nidus of infection. Careful auscultation for murmurs (endocarditis),
abdominal palpation, spinal palpation (discospondylitis), and palpation of the lymph nodes are vital.
Persistent fever is the most frequently reported physical examination finding in dogs and cats with immune-mediated neutropenia.6 In case reports, joint effusion, conjunctivitis, facial edema, oral ulcerations, epistaxis, pyoderma, abscessation of a
digit with local lymphadenomegaly, abdominal pain, mucoid vaginal discharge, and scrotal inflammation have all been reported.2,3,5,11
Complete blood count
On a complete blood cell count (CBC), dogs with immune-mediated neutropenia have a lower neutrophil count than do dogs with
neutropenia attributed to other causes.6 Severe neutropenia (< 500/μl) with a lack of toxic change is common,14 although reports in the literature are limited. Similarly, some reports of immune-mediated neutropenia in cats reveal that
the cats commonly have a marked lymphocytosis and mild thrombocytopenia.14 Toxic change of neutrophils strongly indicates concurrent secondary infection and should resolve with appropriate antibiotic
Concurrent anemia, which can be immune-mediated or from chronic inflammation or bone marrow disease, may be noted. Thrombocytopenia
may also be noted, with immune-mediated thrombocytopenia or bone marrow disease being the most likely causes. Multiple cytopenias
increase the likelihood of bone marrow disease.
Blood smear cytology may show clumping of neutrophils.3 It has been proposed that a concurrent monocytosis may compensate for the lack of neutrophils; this situation is seen in
people. Concurrent lymphocytosis may be related to chronic antigenic stimulation and may lead to hypergammaglobulinemia.
Additional diagnostic testing
Ultimately, the diagnostic approach to a neutropenic dog or cat depends on whether the patient is symptomatic and how severe
the neutropenia is.
Febrile patients. If the patient is febrile, look for a septic focus such as a pulmonary, hepatic, or splenic infection or abscess. Use radiography
and ultrasonography, and obtain blood, urine, joint fluid, and cerebrospinal fluid samples for bacterial culture.
If the results of these tests are negative, consider using a technetium-99m-labeled neutrophil scan to detect neutrophil accumulation
at a focus of infection. Serologic or polymerase chain reaction tests are also indicated to rule out infectious disorders
such as ehrlichiosis in dogs and FeLV and FIV infections in cats.
Anemic patients. With the presence of anemia, especially if it is marked, Coombs tests are indicated. An antiplatelet antibody test in dogs
with concurrent thrombocytopenia may be of interest. Evidence of concurrent immune-mediated blood cell destruction supports
a diagnosis of immune-mediated neutropenia. Similarly, positive antinuclear antibody or rheumatoid factor test results may
lend evidence of concurrent immune-mediated disease. False positive results are common if these tests are run indiscriminately
(e.g. testing for rheumatoid factor in a dog without evidence of erosive polyarthritis).14 Similarly, restrict antinuclear antibody testing to those patients in which concurrent nonerosive polyarthritis is present
or suspected.

Ten individuals, including seven children under the age of 16, were involved in a crash April 2 in Mineral Wells.
According to police reports, the crash happened just before 4 p.m. in the 3700 block of U.S. Highway 180 East.
None of the occupants were transported to the hospital and police did not receive any reports of injuries at the scene.
According to the investigator's report, a 2012 Dodge Durango driven by Kristine M. Duncan, 40, of Mineral Wells, was traveling east on U.S. 180 prior to the collision.
She reportedly stopped in the center turn lane as Ninfa P. Nanez, 35, of Mineral Wells, travelled westbound in a 2002 Chevrolet pickup truck.
As Nanez approached traffic stopped for a signal light, Duncan attempted to make a left turn and failed to yield for traffic in the right lane, police reported.
Nanez's truck struck Duncan's vehicle in the right rear, causing damage to both vehicles.
Duncan faces the charge of making an improper turn, the police report showed.
With dry road surfaces at the time of the crash, police listed only an unsafe turn as a contributing factor.

Special to The Leader
The Orange Leader
VICTORIA, Texas —
A bit of good news for Texans who will be getting together with friends and family and for community celebrations during the long Fourth of July holiday weekend: Not as many mosquitoes will on the hunt as in previous years because of dry weather patterns.
"They're a little bit down, but of course, with the increased activities outdoors, they're going to be looking for a meal," said Charles Boswell, owner of Mosquito Squad of Victoria. "I just encourage people to wear long, loose, light-colored clothing and wear repellent."
Boswell said DEET remains the standard-bearer for mosquito repellents, although those with lemon eucalyptus or Picaridin also have proved effective.
No West Nile virus-related deaths have been reported in the state so far this year. A few thousand cases and 89 deaths were recorded in 2012, however. Many of those cases were from metropolitan areas where mosquitoes often breed in man-made containers, Boswell said.
"I've got to believe that (they're breeding in) things like old rubbish and leaves and trash and stuff gathered up around property," he said. "Just a little bit of water goes a long way in initiating a breeding cycle, and so the best thing people can do is keep their property cleaned, mowed, 'weed-eated' and treated for mosquitoes."
The peak time for West Nile cases in Texas is usually from early to mid-July through the end of August.

The celebration party for Republicans Charlie Dent and Ryan Mackenzie at the Holiday Inn in Fogelsville was packed with supporters who were happy for their candidates but hesitant to celebrate as returns rolled in for the presidential election
Speaking before the election was called for Democrat Barack Obama, Dent said, "No matter what happens tonight, we are going to have to get spending under control.
"If we get this right we can have bright days ahead and I think we can get it right," Dent said. "If we get it wrong then we have a future of debt, doubt and despair - take a good look at Europe, that will be us."

Two local industries are in line to receive exemptions on the taxes they pay for storing "goods in transit."
The Greenville City Council is set to vote Tuesday on granting freeport tax exemptions and instead accepting a payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT) for AB Mauri Food and Masonite. The vote is scheduled during Tuesday's regular session, starting at 6 p.m. in the Municipal Building, 2821 Washington Street. A work session is set for 5 p.m. Tuesday.
Greenville Board of Development Chief Executive Officer Greg Sims approached the Council earlier this year, asking the Council to join with the Greenville Independent School District and Hunt County in a "Partnership Freeport Plan."
Under a freeport exemption, goods which are shipped either inside or outside the state within 175 days are exempt from taxation, but only if the goods are kept in a location which is not under the control of or owned by the manufacturer of the goods.
Sims noted that many area cities, counties and governmental agencies with whom Greenville competes — including Rockwall, Farmersville, McKinney and Terrell — have already passed the exemptions.
He cited two recent examples where Greenville would have benefited from the exemption, both involving companies interested in taking over the former Newell-Rubbermaid facility.
In a memo to the Council, Sims explained there would was expected to be no financial impact to the City of Greenville under the plan during 2013 or 2014, with an estimated cost to the city of $217,647 in the third year.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- Commemorative bricks bought years ago and placed at The Pyramid in Memphis are being removed and it isn't clear where they'll end up.
Workers began taking up the bricks after a fiberglass statue of Ramesses II was moved to the University of Memphis campus last week.
Before The Pyramid opened in 1991, families or individuals paid $50 each to buy more than 12,000 bricks that were inscribed to their wishes and used as paving stones in a plaza in front of the building. The Pyramid has now been leased to Bass Pro Shops.
City Housing and Community Development director Robert Lipscomb said the bricks may follow Ramesses to U of M or might be stored so families who bought them can retrieve them.

Buffalo Football 99 for 99 - #84: Zach Maynard Shows Potential, Youth. In his second start after replacing record breaking QB Drew Willy, Maynard throws for 400 yards & 4 TDs in a losing effort vs...
One thing that won't change in the Cal sports landscape is our fiery quarterback discussions, as Tedford maintains the QB competition will remain open. Beau Sweeney and Brock Mansion will get their chances to start under center again, although Kevin Riley is likely in the driver's seat. (If I had to post odds, Riley would be 75%, Sweeney 20%, Mansion 4%, Wertenberger 1%) That competition won't include Bridgford. The injury he sustained lifting weights will keep him out of action 4 to 6 months and makes him doubtful to see action in 2010. It does make Maynard's signing even more imperative, since Cal will be going into 2011 unclear of who their quarterback of the future will be.
The California Golden Bears finish compiling an outstanding recruiting class for 2010, as Keenan Allen, Chris McCain, Zach Maynard and Gabe King all commit to Cal.
Could the Keenan Allen to #PennState rumors be true?
