PASCO -- Who'd have thought there'd be a downside to cheaper gas?
There appears to be one at Mid-Columbia Grocery in Pasco, where the traffic created by Shyan Din's relatively low gas prices has him in trouble with Franklin County's code enforcement officer.
Din's store at 6409 W. Court St. on Thursday was selling regular gasoline for $2.99 per gallon. That's more than 30 cents cheaper than the average Tri-Cities price of $3.32 per gallon and one cent better than the average from a year ago, $3, according to AAA.com.
Word gets out about the price, and people will even drive over from Richland and Kennewick to fill up. In the process, traffic gets backed up onto Court Street and Road 64, causing a hazard, said Jerry Lingo, county code enforcement officer.
He said the drivers often become reckless, flipping each other off, having fistfights and getting into accidents. On Thursday, he saw one man parked in Court Street waving people past.
"Somebody's gonna get killed. All I'm trying to do is prevent that," Lingo said. "I have no desire to run him out of business, but he's got to be a responsible business owner."
The problem has existed for three years, Lingo said. Two years ago, Din and county officials met to address the situation.
Din agreed to about six steps to improve it, but he never completely carried them out, Lingo said.
He painted lanes on the parking lot pavement, but the paint washed away and he didn't redo them, Lingo said. Din didn't work to develop an overflow parking area across Road 64 like he was supposed to, Lingo said.
Din has an attendant to help direct traffic, but the person often isn't out there dealing with the problems as they occur, Lingo said. Din put up signage to encourage one-way traffic flow through the lot, but the signs didn't hold up.
The only step Din fully complied with was to put longer hoses on the pumps, Lingo said. With the longer hoses, cars don't have to turn around if they pull up to the pumps with their gas tanks on the wrong side, he said.
Din said he has made a good-faith effort, but that he's being unfairly targeted.
"I need the cooperation of the Franklin County, and they need my cooperation as well. Whatever they ask me, I follow up those," said Din, 58.
Lingo may have connections to other gas stations, Din theorized, and is pressuring him on their behalf because his gas prices are so much lower. Lingo said that's not the case.
"Code enforcement and business registration rules regulate that any business be responsible for the conduct it creates, including any public nuisances," Lingo said.
When Din's license is up for renewal at year's end, if the problems aren't corrected, his renewal application likely will go before the county commission for review, Lingo said. The county commission could choose not to renew the license.
Din said he's being punished for lowering his gas prices, but he should be able to charge whatever he wants.
"I think it's my right. This is a free market, a free country," Din said. "But traffic controlling is not my job."

MALONE — A third person who broke into a Malone home where the owner was beaten with a crowbar last year has been sentenced to state prison.
Todd Knudson, 20, of Sharron Avenue, Plattsburgh, pleaded guilty to first-degree burglary and was ordered to serve one to three years in prison by Franklin County Court Judge Robert G. Main Jr.
He must also pay $484 in restitution for the June 26, 2011, break-in at the home of Jeffrey Durant on Duane Street Road near the Malone Golf Club.
Durant was asleep on his couch when he was beaten about the head and torso with a crowbar wielded by Daniel DeCarlo, 29, of Sandalwood Way, Plattsburgh.
Durant was dating DeCarlo's ex-girlfriend at the time of the attack.
The victim suffered a 3½-inch skull fracture, 55 stitches to his forehead and back of his head, a broken nose and severely bruised shoulder, which now precludes him from participating in sports.
DeCarlo was sentenced to 14 years in state prison in August after pleading guilty to second-degree attempted murder, first-degree assault, first-degree burglary and first-degree gang assault.
Knudson, who agreed to testify against DeCarlo, and a third man, Brendon Collins, 20, of Plattsburgh, who also cooperated with prosecutors, came to Malone with DeCarlo from Plattsburgh that morning.
They used a map DeCarlo had drawn, as well as night-vision goggles, to make their way from the Malone Recreation Park to Durant's home.
He managed to fight off his attackers and escape, and Collins and Knudson fled back to the Rec Park, where they arranged a ride home.
DeCarlo was found by State Police in the locker room at the Golf Club, soaking wet and wearing a trash bag over him like a poncho.
Collins, who held Durant in a head lock during part of the attack, was sentenced to six years in state prison after pleading guilty to first-degree burglary under Superior Court Information rather than a formal grand-jury indictment.

A woman was arrested for driving under the influence of drugs Tuesday after driving through a red light and nearly hitting a telephone pole, according to an report.
Adriene Adams, 30, was stopped by officers in the Rite Aid parking lot on Barnett Shoals Road. The officer reported that he didn't smell alcohol on her breath, but Adams seemed "spaced out." When the officer mentioned that she ran a red light at the intersection of Barnett Shoals Road and College Station while driving on the wrong side of the street, Adams' speech became more slurred. She told officers she shouldn't have run the red light.
Police reported that Adams was grabbing the wall and shopping carts at Rite Aid for support, and seemed like she was about to fall asleep. After a few minutes, police asked if she would be willing to take a few tests to see if she was safe to drive. When asked to walk heel to toe in a straight line, Adams lost her balance multiple times and raised her arms for balance. She then told officers the test "was the hardest thing" she had "ever had to do" after the test was completed.
Officers later determined Adams was driving under the influence of a pain reliever. She was arrested, charged with DUI and then transported to Clarke County Jail.

Monday, July 1, 2013
Specialized Racing's Christoph Sauser won the third marathon world championship title of his career on Saturday afternoon in Kirchberg, Austria. He previously was marathon world champion in 2007 and 2011.Racing in the colors of Switzerland and on his S-Works Stumpjumper 29er Hardtail, Sauser crossed the line in 4:30:13, just five seconds ahead of main rival Alban Lakata of Austria. "Leading up to a race like this, it's hard training, and there is a lot of pressure. You always think too much and you're in your head," said Sauser. "I think I found a nice balance for this race. I wasn't too nervous going into it, and I let the other guys make the pace while I stayed out of trouble. You have to relax early on - in a 4.5-hour race, you can't be too tense too early. Then I put myself into high adrenaline mode in the last half hour, which helps me win these marathon races." "It was hard mentally. For me, I always knew that the last climb and the last downhill would be the main goal." Shortly after the start, all of the favorites were near the front, including Sauser and Specialized Racing teammate Jaroslav Kulhavy of the Czech Republic. The 95km course featured four major climbs. The first two climbs whittled down the field. The penultimate climb further worked over the lead group, then consisting of six men, and left only Sauser, Alban Lakata and Hector Leonardo Paez together at the front. "After that, the three of us rode quite steadily until the showdown on the on the last climb which went from 800m to 1800m," said Sauser. "Paez attacked right away going into the climb after the last feed zone. Alban and I kept it steady and caught him. Alban knew he had to push the pace because a few weeks ago at the Bike Four Peaks [which Sauser won - Ed.], when we finished with this same downhill, I put lots of time into him there." "The last 10 minutes before the downhill, I gave it all. I knew I had to go into the downhill first," said Sauser, who was riding Specialized S-Works Renegade 1.95 tires. "I made up a good 10 seconds and went into it first. Then the big pressure was on - not to make any mistakes on all the slippery, wet roots and deep, sticky mud. There were some dry parts - it was always changing, and it was impossible to pass." "I could see him behind me the whole time, and whenever I'd ride more safely, he'd come closer. Then I let go of my brakes. It was such a relief to come out of the downhill into the four cross track and ride the four berms to the finish. It was like all the pressure was off." This title adds to Christoph's already long list of achievements: - 3 x World Marathon Champion
Kulhavy, the Olympic cross country champion and a regular favorite on the World Cup circuit, was surprised at the speed at which Sauser and some of the others were able to climb the first major ascent of the day. At the top of that climb, Kulhavy was six minutes down and realistic about his chances. After descending the first mountain, Kulhavy made the call to pull out at the tech zone."I decided I would not keep going until the next climb. The course is not so good for me - I'm not a marathon specialist. It's better for me to do some training and concentrate on my next races instead. My next races will be cross country races only. I would like to try to win some of them. I have a lot of time now for good training and preparation. I'm looking forward. I felt really good in Val di Sole at the World Cup, but now I'm feeling even better." Two other Specialized racers - Kohei Yamamoto of Japan and Max Knox of South Africa - both racing Specialized S-Works Stumpjumper hardtail 29ers, were making up time on the downhills, but they struggled on the steep climbs, especially Knox. The two pushed themselves to the limit on the final climb of the day and were rewarded with an awesome 7km long downhill toward the finish where Yamamoto was 25th and Knox was 31st. In Women's Anika Langvad finsihed 4th, while Tereza Huříková earns top 10 in her first marathon Worlds. Both on a S-Works Fate 29er. Christoph and the whole Team, on behalf of everyone at Specialized, congratulations, we're proud of you - enjoy the celebrations! More on iamspecialized.com

HOUSTON -- It was a moment that would define the rest of his life and re-define the meaning of home.
"When I look at my house, I don't see my home that I grew up in anymore," said Robbie Tolan. "I see the bullet holes in the house still there. It's a constant reminder. "
Shot in his driveway by a Bellaire police officer in December of 2008 after his car had been mistakenly identified as stolen, Tolan's story is now being told by filmmaker Keith Beauchamp on the Discovery Channel's "Injustice Files."
"I kept thinking, is this really how my life ends," Tolan said in the documentary.
Life didn't end -- just life as he knew it. The former stand out on Bellaire High School's baseball team had aspirations to go pro like his father before him. After he was shot, he returned briefly to play as an outfielder in the Frontier League, but ultimately walked away from the game.
"It wasn't necessarily by choice," said Tolan. "When you've been shot and you've taken a year off from the game and you still have a bullet in you, you become more of a liability."
Bellaire police sergeant Jeffrey Cotton was acquitted of aggravated assault for his role in the shooting, and Tolan's civil lawsuit was thrown out. Now, instead of being recognized for his baseball skills, he finds himself a willing, if somewhat reluctant, crusader against racial profiling.
"When you talk about racial profiling and guns are involved in police shootings, the majority of the victims are dead," said Tolan. "Those people can't speak for themselves. You feel obligated to speak on their behalf."
While life didn't turn out the way he expected, he's making the best of the hand life has dealt him.
"You just think about your blessings," said Tolan. I have a lot that I could be angry with, but that's no way to live."

The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — The Big 12 Conference released its 2013 football schedule on Tuesday and Oklahoma announced its entire schedule as well.
The Sooners will open the 2013 season on Aug. 31 at Owen Field against Louisiana-Monroe. The conference schedule will begin earlier than it ever has. West Virginia will come to Norman on Sept. 7.
"Our scheduling philosophy has been well documented over the years. We work annually to ensure that our schedule is challenging and gives our team an opportunity of competing for championships," OU athletic director Joe Castiglione said in a statement on Tuesday. "We are excited about opening our Big 12 Conference schedule at home and look forward to facing quality competition throughout the year."
OU will play the first three weeks of the season. The three-game run ends on Sept. 14 when Tulsa comes to Owen Field.
After the open date, the Sooners close out their non-conference schedule on Sept. 28 at Notre Dame.
TCU makes its first appearance in Norman as a member of the Big 12 on Oct. 5.
The 108th meeting between Oklahoma and Texas will be held in Dallas on Oct. 12 as the Sooners look for their fourth straight win in the storied Red River Rivalry played in the Cotton Bowl. The OU-Texas game will be followed by a trip to face Kansas on Oct. 19. Texas Tech visits Owen Field on Oct. 26.
OU enjoys an open date on Nov. 2 before resuming its schedule on Nov. 9 at Baylor. Oklahoma returns home to host Iowa State on Nov. 16.
The Sooners finish their regular season schedule with back-to-back Big 12 road contests for the first time since 2010. Oklahoma visits Kansas State on Nov. 23. The regular season concludes on Dec. 7 as the Bedlam Series returns to Stillwater.
Sticking up for the D: OU wide receiver Kenny Stills took up for the Sooners when asked about the unit's issues last week against West Virginia.
"You guys are tough on the defense but there's not a lot of defenses out there that can stop Tavon Austin and Steadman Bailey and Geno Smith," he said. "Those guys are the real deal. It wasn't anything that had to do with our players. They were just unstoppable. I wouldn't say anything is wrong with our defense but we've been there, we've had our struggles. I've told all the guys on defense, plenty of times since Saturday, those guys were unstoppable. Every once in a while we're going to have to trade points and come out on top."
However, Oklahoma State held the Mountaineers at bay when it beat them, 55-34 on Nov. 10.
Goal is still out there: The Sooners' hopes of winning the Big 12 championship were rekindled by Kansas State's loss to Baylor last Saturday.
The Wildcats still hold the tiebreaker over OU, but both teams have one conference loss.
"With these last couple weeks with how college football's been going, anything could happen," defensive tackle Casey Walker said. "Who thought K-State was gonna lose to Baylor? I didn't. You've just gotta keep going forward and keep playing good football from here on out, because you never know what's gonna happen."
No doubt: OU quarterback Landry Jones picked up the one individual achievement his career lacked against West Virginia: he led the Sooners to a come-from-behind victory.
Jones always believed he was capable of doing that. Now he heads into the Bedlam game knowing he can do it again if needed.
"It was a confidence booster. I don't know if I've ever doubted myself in those situations," he said. "Those situations are a matter of executing football. It's not any different than any other situation. It's about going out there and playing ball and playing ball at a high level. It was a confidence booster, but I don't know if I ever doubted myself in those situations."

Primary tabs
Robert F. Inger's association with the museum began as a volunteer for Karl P. Schmidt in the Division of Amphibians and Reptiles during the 1940s. After studying Zoology at the University of Chicago, Inger was hired by Schmidt as Assistant in the Division of Amphibians and Reptiles. He held this position until he was appointed Assistant Curator of Fishes in 1949. Inger succeeded Clifford Pope as Curator of Amphibians and Reptiles on January 1, 1954.
Early in his career Inger began to specialize in the ecology, systematics and zoogeography of the herpetofauna and ichthyofauna of Southeast Asia, especially the amphibians. Since 1950 his research has concentrated on the ecology of communities of amphibians and reptiles in Bornean forests, a project that continues to the present. Robert Inger's fieldwork began in 1950 with his first trip to Borneo. Since that trip he has returned to Borneo over sixteen times. He has also conducted fieldwork in peninsular Malaysia, Thailand, India, China, Brunei, and Zaire. A substantial part of the Division's collections consists of specimens Inger has collected. His Bornean fieldwork alone has added over 41,500 specimens. Inger's collections contain extremely large series accompanied by detailed field notes. Though Inger retired in September 1994, he continues a full-time schedule of lab and field work as Curator Emeritus.
Inger has described more than 75 species of herps, mostly frogs. Over forty species including reptiles, amphibians, fish and crustacean honor Inger by bearing the name stem "inger" in either the species or genus name. He has authored 7 books and has had 136 papers published in refereed journals.

That Barboza fight was honestly the MOST impressed I've ever been with Cowboy.
Mainly because he was losing that fight, but he found a way to win.
That to me is the ESSENCE of mixed martial arts.
He was hanging in there, but it looked like just a matter of time til he was going to get rocked on the feet.
Instead of waiting for that to happen he lands a crisp jab, takes the back, and before Barboza even registers the switch from striking to grappling, Cowboy sinks in the choke.
Absolutely impressive when a guy is "losing" in one area, and so he switches it to another.
Respect Cowboy!
It did look like barboza had started to hurt cowboy, but that cowboy gameface was impressive.
Just before he got dropped barboza looked slightly frustrated that his shots 'seemed' to not have any effect.
That was just an impressive fight for him. A tough match-up and he finished the fight. This is how guys earn fans and money.

Hopefully that rematch will be what most of us expected in that first fight.
I swear when I was watching that fight it looked like Cerrone's jaw got broken
I thought he talked a bit funny after the fight, too.
Cowboy has had so many fights and so many bonuses in a relatively short period of time. I just counted 14 bonuses between the UFC and WEC and 23 total fights between the two orgs. I'd liike to see where he ranks all time in terms of gross earnings.
I swear when I was watching that fight it looked like Cerrone's jaw got broken and he didn't close it for quite some time. Nice to see him come out without an injury and ready to fight.
I've said it before. He should train year round and be ready to step in anytime someone is injured. I wish there was more fighters like him. I'll throw down money to see him fight anyday. He deserves to be paid well.

It does seem that way... Always thought that would have been a closer match up had Cerrone used his kicks instead of turning it into a straight boxing match.
Awesome attitude. He represents Denver well. Except for his over tanning and irresponsible money management.
When looking at who to book Cerrone with, he really can't have a "bad fight" in the bunch...except for maybe Pat Healy lol.
I was hearing that they might want to hotshot a Khabib/Cerrone fight to build Khabib while the LW title gathers dust until the Pettis/Gil fight.
I'd personally love to see Cerrone/Joe Lauzon....just jeezus that's an awesome FOTY matchup if there ever was one.
Jorge Masvidal is another hell of an underrated talent, but really requires sound matchmaking to make exciting bouts and would like to see how he handles Cerrone.
Word was that Josh Thomson was mulling over retirement and is pretty banged up(as always), but Punk/Cowboy would be excellent.
Wouldn't be shocked if they book Cerrone/Miller, but I don't know if Jim wants to fight so soon between fights.
I personally believe Abel Trujillo is incredibly overrated, but he and Cerrone could have some fireworks too.
Then there's Michael Johnson and Myles Jury, both of whom are gradually building their resumes while they make a run upward at 155 but I'm not sure that either is an enticing matchup for Cerrone as they may game plan and work the outside to defuse a lot of Cerrone's exciting style.
Michael Johnson should step up, that would be a great fight

The Clarksville Police Department upped its patrol last weekend to conduct a blitz on traffic violators and reel in higher-level offenders.
The four-hour blitz, from 10 p.m. Friday to 2 a.m. Saturday, resulted in 15 arrests and the confiscation of drugs including cocaine, marijuana, narcotic pills and spice. The department reported seizing more than $3,000 of drug money during the program.
Officers set up two blitz areas, both near locations with a high frequency of police calls.
The blitz areas were concentrated near Eastern Boulevard and Interstate 65 and at the Lynch Lane area off Lewis and Clark Parkway.
Clarksville Police Chief Mark Palmer released a statement following the blitz.
"This program was successful in targeting drugs being transported in and out of Clarksville," he stated. "We will continue with these blitzes to keep these drugs out of the Clarksville community."

There were tears, laughter and memories -- usually within seconds of each other -- Tuesday in Suwanee as family members, friends and others attended the emotional .
And there was a lot of talk about family and spirituality as the Prince and Hansen families were among those attending services for the brothers, killed in a June 18 boating collision on Lake Lanier.
"Family is the perfect eternal organization," said Gary Hansen, one of the boys' grandfathers, at the ceremony at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Suwanee Dam Road. "Truly, family can be together forever."
Indeed, the cover of the ceremony program carried the inscription, "Our family is forever."
Also speaking at Tuesday's ceremony, which began at noon and ended about 1:45 p.m., were Jeff Humphrey, a family friend, and Suwanee Police officer Wes Edwards, an uncle to the Prince youths.
Michael Prince Jr., Tara Hansen Prince and Ryan Prince sat near the pulpit. After the ceremony, they and select family and friends left for a private graveside service and burial.
The Prince brothers, however, were recalled as being very different in personality: Jake, 9, was "an open book ... Griffin was a secret," recalled Humphrey, who knew Tara Hansen Prince, the boys' mother, from North Springs High.
In fun, Humphrey recalled that Jake once left a taco in the back of his car "for several weeks. ... It was a small reminder of Jake."
Of the introverted Griffin, Humphrey said that "texting was invented for Griffin. ... He was painfully shy and reluctant." But Humphrey said that one of Griffin's teachers said he had "a great smile to go with a great heart."
Hansen, the grandfather, talked in more spiritual tones about his grandsons.
"The miracle in this," he said, "is that God was able to use these events to bless us and increase our faiths."
He added that the families have made a pledge never to speak of Griffin and Jake in the past tense.
"I still have 16 grandchildren, and Ryan is still the big brother."

Marion Brooks is the anchor of the NBC5 News at 4:30 p.m. each weekday. She also reports for the 10 p.m. newscast and is a regular contributor to WVON's Cliff Kelly Show.
Brooks joined NBC5 in 1998 as a weekend anchor from Atlanta, Ga., where she also served as an anchor/reporter. Her career has spanned over several regions and market sizes in the country. Beginning at the Sarasota Herald Tribune in Sarasota, Fla., Brooks learned the advertising side of journalism in a management training program for the New York Times Newspaper Group.
Her first job in broadcasting was in radio at WGST, a news talk station in Atlanta, in the entry level type of job that exposed her to the long hours, hard work, and adrenaline rushes of newsgathering. She credits this experience with solidifying her desire to work as a journalist.
Her first television job took her to one of the poorest regions in the country, the Mississippi Delta. From there her career wound through markets around the country with stops in Jacksonville, Fla., St. Louis, Mo., Atlanta, Ga., and Chicago.
She's covered everything from major natural disasters to politics, crime and courts to health, consumer issues to two Olympic games, and much in between.
As an anchor, she's as comfortable anchoring from the field as from the set and has been at the helm during breaking news coverage for several hours, both with a co-anchor and on her own.
Community outreach is a principle part of her work at NBC5 and Brooks has emceed some of the most important events in Chicago. They include functions for the Urban League of Chicago, Rainbow PUSH, N'Digo Magapaper, Black Creativity, Midtown Educational Foundation, The American Heart Association and the Make A Wish Foundation, to name a few.
Brooks has a bachelor of arts degree in English from Spelman College and is a member of the National Association of Black Journalists.

Associated Press
Years from now, when Marshall fans are thinking back on the history of their favorite college football team, the series with Central Florida will not be remembered fondly.
The Thundering Herd last defeated the Knights In 2004 on a blustery Halloween eve in Huntington. That was both teams' final season as members of the Mid-American Conference, and UCF had one of the lousiest programs in the nation.
In 2005, UCF started to turn things around — largely at Marshall's expense.
The teams' inaugural Conference USA game was against each other. UCF's 23-13 win proved to be a pivotal moment for the football program. It snapped a 17-game losing streak and led to the Knights becoming a perennial contender for the league championship.
It was also the first of an ongoing seven-game losing streak to the Knights by Marshall. Not every game has been a blowout — save the 2007 meeting, when current Detroit Lions running back Kevin Smith rolled the Herd in a 47-13 UCF win — but there is no denying the Knights have been a thorn in Herd Nation's collective flesh.
•In 2006, with the Herd looking to avenge the embarrassment of 2005, UCF deflated a Wednesday crowd at Joan C. Edwards Stadium. Anthony Binswanger's 50-yard field goal, his third field goal of the game, put Marshall ahead 22-20 with three minutes to play. But the Knights drove 76 yards on the ensuing drive, and Michael Torres' third 22-yard field goal of the night allowed UCF to escape with a 23-22 victory.
Marshall botched an extra-point attempt on its first touchdown in the one-point defeat.
•In 2009, Rocky Ross' 1-yard touchdown catch with 23 seconds remaining gave the Knights a 21-20 victory. It was bad enough that Marshall coughed up a 20-7 lead late in the third quarter. It was even worse that Ross was completely uncovered on the game-winner.
•Freshest in fans' memories, of course, is last year's 16-6 debacle in Orlando. The Herd could manage just 130 yards of offense and Rakeem Cato disrespected co-offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Tony Petersen.
And it rained. Hard. And a lot.
Marshall and UCF will meet for the final time at 8 p.m. today. UCF, along with Houston, SMU and Memphis, is leaving C-USA in July for the once greener pastures of the Big East.
It would be easy for the Herd (3-4, 2-1) to focus on ending their seven-game losing streak to the Knights. Beat them and send them on their way.
But there is a more important reason for Marshall to win the game. UCF (5-2, 3-0) leads the East Division, and Marshall is in position to unseat the Knights atop the standings.
That is the challenge that awaits the players and the coaches.
"Our team just has to go play," head coach Doc Holliday said. "Do what you do and do your job because they're plenty good enough. They just have to go do their job and we will see where we are at the end of the day."
"At the end of the day," Marshall wants to be waving the banner as division champion for the first time. Beating what has turned out to be its biggest nemesis is a must toward that goal.
Years from now, it sure would make all that reminiscing much nicer.

Naturally I'd like to keep the result as in the previous post, but it doesn't seem fair somehow.
Going with the "all Dwagons are actually in the same stack" thing, well, the Math needs redoing.
Two questions however.
1) Can I have the Stabbers direct their damage at the Dwagons without the targeting penalty?
2) Presumably the answer to 1 is no. All right. If I sent 6 Stabbers, these would croak the first Purple, and the Hobs on that would fall. Now there's two stacks. Can I immediately attack the Dwagons again? Or the Hobs first, then the Dwagons?
Ranged Stacks
A stack may be called Ranged if: all units it contains have the Ranged special, or all units, except the leading Commander, are Ranged, or, all non-ranged units in the stack are either riders on Ranged units, or mounts for Ranged units. If a stack is to fight as a Ranged stack when not all of its units are Ranged, then the non-Ranged units do not contribute damage to the battle calculation.

Negative Experience
Very Difficult Interview
I applied through an employee referral and the process took 6+ weeks - interviewed at Arcadia Solutions in March 2013.
Interview Details – Previous hiring admin was a wreck, but the folks who do most of the phone screens and the on-site interviews are live employees. They want to work with great people. Despite its flaws, Arcadia has a fairly difficult and competitive hiring process.
1) Informational interview
2) Phone screen with current consultant. Includes analytical "riddle".
3) On-site, which many other folks discussed below. Includes behavioral case, analytical case, presentation to sell yourself, and social lunch.
My advice here would be that it's alright to goof up; circle back, acknowledge your error, move through the corrections methodically and quickly. Especially when it comes to math errors.
And don't let them see you sweat. Clients don't want to see you sweat.
Interview Question – How much does it cost to wash all of the windows in NYC, once each? View Answer
Negotiation Details – There was no negotiation---HR completely bungled the hiring process. That's why the new HR administration is there.

Easy Interview
I applied online and the process took 6+ weeks - interviewed at Arcadia Solutions.
Interview Details – Four interviews - 'Case', 'Analytical', Presentation and 'Social'. The case and analytical are simple versions of any case pratice you've ever done. The 'analytical' focuses on a quantitative approach to choosing a business solution and is very straight forward. The 'Case' focuses instead of more practice project management issues and is easy to walk through. The presentation is merely verbally relating how your resume relates to the job with a powerpoint and the social is just a business lunch.
Interview Question – There was nothing unexpected in the process. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – Easy. Salary negotiation was simple enough having them state their preferred compensation first.

I applied through college or university and interviewed at Arcadia Solutions.
Interview Details – Half hour on campus interview. Went through resume, asked why I was interested in the company and the position. Asked me a brain teaser type case question. Time for questions at the end. Asked to do an on site interview. 5 parts: 1. Going over resume/what I know about the company/why I'm interested. 2. Case Study Question 3. Math/technical question 4. Lunch 5. Had to prepare a 20 minute power point presentation as to why I was a good fit for the company. Everyone at the company was very nice, thought interview went well.

I applied through college or university and the process took 1 week - interviewed at Arcadia Solutions in October 2012.
Interview Details – Very strange initial process. Was not initially contacted for an interview, then received an e-mail the day before the on campus interviews. Very short, mostly informational (going over resume) and little behavioral interview. No case was worked over during this interview and was intended for a second round apparently. A week later received an email stating that I wasn't chosen for the next round. Overall unclear process.

Average Interview
I applied through an employee referral and the process took 3 months - interviewed at Arcadia Solutions in September 2012.
Interview Details – Spoke with a former employee who referred me to a current employee who then passed my information along to HR. Was first contacted by a member of their team at the beginning of August. After some email tag, scheduled my first round phone interview at the end of August. All questions were related to my resume/behavioral fit. After Labor Day, scheduled second round phone interview for second or third week in September. Again, about a 30-45 minute phone call, this time with two short brain teasers at the end (angle between hands on a clock and number of college/university students in the US). Honestly felt/still feel that this second phone interview is a waste of time on the company's behalf. Just include the brain teaser stuff in the first interview.
Was asked in for an in-person interview one week later, which as others have posted here, involved a 15-20 minute presentation, a case discussing a dysfunctional project manager and the steps you would take to remedy the situation, a case involving a bunch of numbers related to revenue and costs of two health plans, and a lunch with two consultants. After the lunch, I met with the recruiting manager for about 30 minutes for some final questions. The quant heavy case was a bit confusing in its presentation, but overall none of this was too difficult. Total interview lasted from about 10AM to 3PM.
Was notified 10 days later that I would not be receiving an offer. When I asked for feedback, they said it's company policy to not give feedback, which is a shame.

Interview Details – Very arduous interview process. Two phone interviews, then a 4+ hour onsite.

The process took 1 week - interviewed at Arcadia Solutions in April 2012.
Interview Details – Applied through my school's online job application system, and was invited to interview on campus. Interview consisted of typical questions (tell me about yourself, walking through the resume, "what are you most proud of?", "tell me about a research project"). The interviewers were friendly and talked about the enjoyment they get, the travel involved (4/5 days in the week), the often difficult work week (sometimes 60-80 hours), the young culture, and carving your own path within the company. There was an easy analytic exercise (not quite a case question) at the end of the interview that mostly required using the P = R - C formula. I was notified within the next week that I would not be invited to the next round of on site interviews, and was okay with it considering I wasn't very interested in the travel and long hours involved with the job.

Update: Dec. 31, 9:30 p.m.
A suspect and a law enforcement agent are both dead after an attempted armed robbery at in Seaford Saturday afternoon.
According to police, around 2 p.m., a white male in his 40s entered the pharmacy with a gun and attempted to rob the store. Det. Lt. Kevin Smith said that the suspect left the store with an indeterminate amount of cash and Oxycontin when he was confronted by three law enforcement officers; two off-duty and one retired.
Shooting ensued and one of the officers was struck by gunfire and taken to the Nassau University Medical Center, where he succumbed to his injuries, police said.
The suspect was then shot and killed by another one of the officers at the scene, Smith said.
The deceased officer was an agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
A witness from Seaford told Patch that she pulled up to the front of the pharmacy with her 13-year-old son shortly after the shooting and saw two bodies on the ground -- one of which was being attended to by paramedics. The witness also said that she saw another man handing his gun to officers at the scene.
The name of the suspect and officer have not yet been released.
This is a breaking news story, Patch will update the story with more details when they are made available.

Carson looks to early education to fight crime
Listen to the story
Officials in Carson City are taking up the call for a federal proposal that would invest billions of dollars in pre-k and early education programs.
It's part of a national bi-partisan campaign, supported by more than 5,000 members of law enforcement, that seeks to reduce the state's incarcerated population. In Nevada, almost 60 percent of inmates cannot read or write.
"These are troubling statistics, but I see the human toll day after day as people come through the doors of this jail who can barely read or write."
That's Carson City Sheriff Ken Furlong who is spearheading the local effort to get federal investment in the education system. Furlong says Nevada could save 26 million dollars a year and reduce the prison population by 1,300, if this state-federal program was implemented. The program is expected to be proposed in Congress in the coming weeks.
Judge Kristin Luis says when students don't have that early education experience, it very quickly limits their options.
"What bothers me is when I see kids in the juvenile system by the time they reach the age of eight or ten, and I see more of them than I would like to see. Changing the course for them at that age is a lot more difficult if we haven't built that foundation sooner."
The national program would be free for Nevada for the first three years and after that there would be cost sharing between the state and federal government.
Carson City has the highest violent crime rate per 100,000 people than any other county in the state, with more than 18,000 violent crimes annually. Officials say that's linked to the fact that 38 percent of students do not graduate on time.
