After his mighty "Hammerklavier Sonata," Ludwig van Beethoven continued with writing sonatas, but on a smaller and more intimate scale.
The "Sonata No. 30 in E" is a rare combination of nostalgia, youthful vigor and an antiquarian's love of baroque musical forms.
In the first movement, the music swims out of the void into being and the composer weaves passages that simultaneously project them forward and fall back into reminiscence.
In the first segment:
The promise of gold's safety lured many in uncertain economic times and the price, which was often stable, shot up over the past decade to unprecedented levels. Doomsayers predicting the collapse of the U.S. and world financial systems all bet on gold.
As the housing sector continues to rebound and the national spending begins to shrink, the price of gold has fallen more than 25 percent with analysts predicting it will continue to fall, perhaps even touching the $1,000 per ounce level.
On Tuesday Bexar County Commissioners celebrated the 5-year anniversary of the Mental Health Court.
In 2008, the program began diverting non-violent, mentally ill offenders from jail, and instead entered them into a structured treatment program and case management to stop the cycle of arrest-release-arrest that many offenders get caught in.
Judge Michael Mery, who founded the court, said people who are now recovering from drug abuse or mental illness often tell him how the court changed their lives:
House Bill 2197, which is authored by Rep. Rafael Anchia, D-Dallas, was set to continue the funding for the Texas Lottery Commission for the next 12 years.
However, the bill was initially defeated, a move that Anchia said took him by surprise:
According to a city ordinance read into the record Monday night, three-wheeled pedicabs would be allowed to take pedestrians around downtown area.
New Braunfels Mayor Gale Pospisil said there are already business people hoping to start running pedicabs as soon as possible.
"I think it will just be a nice added amenity and particularly since it does cover the historic downtown area where we have a lot of historic buildings and things. I think it will certainly be a nice attraction," Pospisil said.
My piano teacher told me about the story of Ludwig van Beethoven's creation of his biggest Piano Sonata the "Hammerklavier."
It goes back to John Broadwood sending him his best and biggest piano, and Beethoven's reply was this groundbreaking work. When I looked up to confirm what I was told, I found out the story was even more amazing.
San Antonio's District 9, which covers the city's North and Far North sides, has two candidates for city council. One of them is the incumbent for the seat, Elisa Chan, and the other is Chan's former campaign worker and chief of constituency, Jason Salinas.
Chan would like to see a third term, but Salinas said he wanted to give voters an option, so he signed up for the race on the day of the deadline.
"Democracy works best when voters are given legitimate choices, and when citizens are heard and are properly represented," Salinas said.
A bill that would bring the Lower Colorado River Authority under the review of the Sunset Commission causes sparks to fly in a House committee.
The bill also would allow the district served by the LCRA to elect the members of the quasi-governmental board rather than all 15 being appointed by Gov. Rick Perry.
The bill's author, Rep. Donna Howard, D-Austin, said her second bill addresses the review of the LCRA and its activities by the Sunset Commission.
The San Antonio Conservation Society is hard at work putting together the final touches in La Villita for Night in Old San Antonio, a tradition dating back nearly 100 years.
"We started back in the 1920's when the city wanted to do an Indian festival, and so we stepped forward and put on a very short one night festival for that," said NIOSA treasurer Barb Machado. "Then it grew and they tried a couple of things along the banks of the Riverwalk and then after that they decided to turn it into this."
Proposals were made by both the Republicans and Democrats in the House, but it is House Bill 3791, the Republican "Texas-ccentric" plan, that is heading to the House floor for a vote.
The plan is to get federal dollars in the form of a block grant that is used to create a state alternative to Medicaid expansion, though the federal government has not said if such a grant will be given.

|Alice Vigen, 91
|Written by TRF Times
Thief River Falls - Alice Vigen, 91, formerly of Grygla, died on Monday, Nov. 12, 2012 at her home in Thief River Falls.
Funeral services were held Saturday, Nov. 17, 2012 at Grace Lutheran Church in Grygla, with Rev. Vicki Saude-Worthington officiating. Casket bearers included Alice's grandchildren. Honorary casket bearers included Grygla VFW Auxiliary and Lull-A-While Homemakers Club. Interment was held at St. Olaf Cemetery near Grygla.
Alice Elaine Wold was born November 26, 1920 at home on the family farm near Gatzke, the daughter of Joseph and Clara (Erickson) Wold. She was baptized and confirmed into the Lutheran faith at Landstad Lutheran Church near Gatzke. Alice attended country school, and continued her schooling at Lincoln High School in Thief River Falls.
On Saturday, April 12, 1941, Alice Elaine Wold had become Mrs. Ervin Vigen. 1941 would come to be known as not only the year Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, the year Penicillin treatment was introduced, and the year gas went to 19 cents a gallon, but also the year that was the beginning of the whole Vigen clan. The original honeymoon cottage was a remodeled chicken coop…those living accommodations lasted only a short time and by the spring a real house had been moved on to replace the original one.
April, 1942 brought the arrival of the first little Vigen—Larry. An upstairs and a bedroom addition were added to the house to accommodate the new Vigen arrivals. By 1951, their 10th anniversary, drive-ins, crew cuts, and convertibles were in, I love Lucy was on TV, Mickey Mantle became a Yankee, and the Vigen clan had expanded to five. After Larry came Marcia, Robby, LeRoy and Susan. By their 20th, in 1961, there were seven altogether. Pat arrived in 1952 and Howard in 1957.
As the years went by, Alice did what most mothers of seven would do, kept everyone clean, dry and fed. By 1968 enough of the kids had left home so Alice and Ervin could afford a new house. Between 1968 and 1988, Alice spent 20 years at the Land-O-Lakes turkey plant. 1991 finds Alice keeping busy with quilting, sewing, reading, making lefse and spoiling her grandchildren. Ervin died on Dec. 2, 2004 and Alice remained on the farm until 2008 when she moved into Thief River Falls.
Alice was a member of Grace Lutheran Church in Grygla, the Grygla VFW Auxiliary, and the Lull-A-While Homemakers Club.
Survivors include her children, Larry (Mayvonne) Vigen of Goodridge, Marcia (Russ) Johnson of Rosemount, LeRoy (Madelyn) Vigen of Thief River Falls, Susan (Gene) Paulson of Fosston, Patricia (Larry) Grabowska of Stephen, Howard (Mary) Vigen of Lakeville; grandchildren, David (Missy) Vigen, Paul (special friend, Kristen) Vigen, Leah (Dallas) Bothum, Ritchy (Kristi) Johnson, Scott (Kelly) Johnson, Stephanie (Adam) Baumgartner, Andrea (Brent) Poole, Andrew (Lindsay) Paulson, Jaime (Bret) Yaeger, Sarah (special friend, Randy) Grabowska, Amber (Jason) Dungan, Dustin (Jenna) Grabowska, Lisa Vigen, Phillip Vigen; great-grandchildren, Brenden, Kailee, Nevada, Ryan (Lisa), Kerri, Logan, Lindsey, Kirsten, Kyle, Collin, Kayci, Austin, Hannah, Lucy, Bo, Tanner, Lauren, Morgan, Jaiden, Ashton, Hudson, Brooks, Bella, Presley, Rylee; great-great-granddaughter, Madison; brother, Kermit Wold; sister, Helen (special friend, Ed Cassidy) Swanson; sister-in-law, Violet Wold; and several nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Ervin; son, Robert in 1964; sisters, Evelyn (Obert) Grovum, Margaret (Francis) Haack, Shirley Wold; brothers, Juel Wold, Adrian Wold; and sister-in-law, Ellen Wold.

CLEMSON vs. LSU
Monday, Dec. 31, 7:30 pm
This should be one of the most intriguing overall bowl matchup of the year outside of the Alabama-Notre Dame national title game and perhaps the Oregon-Kansas State Fiesta Bowl. The orange Tigers weren't able to defend their ACC Championship, blowing a game at Florida State early in the season. Clemson was still in good shape for a BCS at-large bid before it was rather shockingly beaten soundly by South Carolina and its backup QB in the regular-season finale. LSU opened the preseason at No. 1 in the polls but took a hit early with the dismissal of the "Honey Badger," Tyrann Mathieu. Still, the defense was among the nation's best, and LSU just might be playing for a national title if not for a stellar final-minute drive by Alabama QB A.J. McCarron in the classic 21-17 Tide win on Nov. 3. LSU got a bit of a scare when it was announced shortly after the season that coach Les Miles had talked to Arkansas about its head coaching job, but Miles seems to talk to someone every year (Michigan twice). He got his nice new extension. These two couldn't be much more different. The Clemson offense is one of the best in the nation – so good that coordinator Chad Morris got a few interviews for head coaching jobs and still might be hired at Texas Tech. Behind ACC Offensive Player of the Year and quarterback Tajh Boyd, Clemson set school records (again) and led the ACC in scoring, total offense and passing. The Tigers had a whopping six first-team All-ACC players on offense. This could be the final college game for Boyd and stud receiver DeAndre Hopkins as both might declare for the NFL. At least receiver/return man Sammy Watkins has to stay one more year.
LSU, meanwhile, didn't get the season expected out of highly-touted QB Zach Mettenberger, although he definitely did get better as the season went on. He was actually better than McCarron in that Alabama game. Still, the Tigers ranked No. 106 in passing. They did find a future star running back in freshman Jeremy Hill. But being as LSU is in the SEC, its defense is the calling card. There are multiple NFL Draft picks on the roster, especially up front.
Clemson scored less than 37 points just twice all year and it was against its two SEC opponents: Auburn and South Carolina. So as good as the Tigers offense is, it clearly can be neutralized by the speed and physicality of SEC teams. LSU has allowed more than 22 points just once, a typical letdown game win over Mississippi. I'm sure both LSU and Clemson want to put last year's bowl disappointments behind them, with LSU looking offensively inept in the national title loss to Alabama and Clemson looking defensively atrocious in a 70-33 loss to West Virginia. Both teams know this building well and the crowd should be about split. I still remember how the SEC treated the ACC like a little sister on the final weekend of the regular season. But again as there are lots of games that do not seem to be that close this game should be interesting and close. I have LSU winning this game by a point and obviously have to sit back and wait it out until closer to game time to make my final decision. Really makes sense to play Clemson since the line keeps rising and I do have a slight lean on Clemson BUT with New Years Eve and since Im not watching the game I will roll with the Over and take a small shot on that.

The center of Tropical Storm Bertha was passing between the Lesser Antilles islands of Martinique and Dominica near 4 pm EDT on Friday, but has brought little in the way of strong winds or heavy rain to the Lesser Antilles Islands so far. As of 4 pm, Martinique had received 0.35" of rain, with top winds of 22 mph. Dominica had a wind gust of 43 mph at 4 pm EDT.
Looking at the press and blogs reports, I would be interested to see in the blog comments how people think "super" and "monster" entered into the discussion. There is a burst of the adjectives in the press and blogs in May, followed quite quickly in June by people distancing themselves from the extreme description. Accompanying this distancing is the growth of commentary in the press and blogs about exaggerated claims and failed models. I point out explicitly, there is no language of exaggeration in the summaries from the prediction centers, which should be viewed as the basic knowledge-based information. Therefore, there is no foundation to say these models have failed in any fundamental sense.

that would a wonderful present for the unfortunate homeless men this
Christmas. Lets not forget those less fortunate this season.
An online journal about visual art, the urban landscape and design. Mary Louise Schumacher, the Journal Sentinel's art and architecture critic, leads the discussion and a community of writers contribute to the dialogue.
Two years ago, the Journal Sentinel began a new tradition by offering our readers the gift of art on Christmas Day.
Last year, we published a reproduction of Georgene Pomplun's painting "Country Winter" (image, left) prominently on the front page. In 2008, we ran an image Tom Shropshire's "Winter's Eve at Holy Hill."
This year, we will again reproduce a painting by a Wisconsin artist in the Journal Sentinel on Christmas.
The artwork will be selected by Publisher Elizabeth Brenner, Editor Martin Kaiser and art critic Mary Louise Schumacher. As we have in previous years, we will show many of the artworks not selected for the front page on jsonline.com.
We are looking for a scene appropriate for Christmas Day and made by a Wisconsin artist, living or dead. The artworks should be paintings or prints. We are not accepting photography or images of three-dimensional artworks.
To nominate an artwork, please send high resolution digital images, the title of the artwork and the name and phone number of the artist to Schumacher at email@example.com with "Christmas art" in the subject line.
Or, send a disk via the U.S. mail or deliver it in person to Mary Louise Schumacher, art critic, 333 W. State St., Milwaukee, WI 53203. You should have the rights to reproduce the image. Entries must be received by 5 p.m. Dec. 17.
Design Ideas is a weekly column exploring the many ways that design intersects our lives.
An ongoing series of interviews with creative people.

I am hooked. (And sorry, I have been away awhile.)
Epi 4: John Barrowman! Woot!
I am hooked. (And sorry, I have been away awhile.)
Epi 4: John Barrowman! Woot!
I LOVE this show and read the character biography on Wikipedia. But unlike the rest of fandom I hate Laurel and hope Carly, Diggle's S-I-N, become's of hero's love interest. I also saw the huntress has been cast so she and Laurel are not the same person, THANK GOODNESS! I also love it that the hero has his mother to answer too. Apparently the Arrow is fashioned after The Dark Knight which I do not mind at all. Have no idea who this John Barrowman person is...
Count me in as another who has been following Arrow since it's first episode and try to get my viewing times straight cause it's on Wednesday and so is Survivor.
Methinks mommy dearest is not one to be trifled with. That being said, she should probably be on her son's "hit" list cause it sure seems to me that she had something to do with the boat going down that drowned her first husband.
Crazy about sports!
I've watched every episode. I'm a comic/superhero fan. It's very well written so far.
Looking forward to seeing The Huntress as a guest star. (The Huntress was on "Birds of Prey" a few years ago on The WB)
Awwwww, let's keep Laurel around for a while and watch Superhero squirm some more while he tries to hide how much he still very much cares about her AND concealing who he is at night time.
Baby sis -- what a pain she is yet has some pretty good insticts/insights. Let's keep her.
Feeling sorry for newest hubby, thinking he's going to meet up with some bad, courtesy of his wife. After all, getting rid of husband #2 should be easier to manage now that she's had some practice aka bumping off hubby #1.
Crazy about sports!
Arrow is definitely the best new show of the year.
It's official. I am madly in love with Meryl Davis.
I too am loving this show. I agree Laurel isn't the greatest but she is just a typical swooning one-dimensional character. I think it would be fun to have sis become aware of what her brother is doing and join in to help him. Looking forward to finding out more about the island and what happened there.
I too would love to hear more about the island. Little sis is very intriguing character.
Since I am not a reality show fan this is pretty much it for TV viewing on Wednesdays. Not sure I would have tuned in otherwise but I am enjoying it. Obviously it is a big stretch of the imagination but I am will to suspend disbelief to be entertained. Now that is it revealed Mom has secretly recovered the shipwreck I think the chances are slight she was behind any wrongdoing. (One would prefer the evidence to be lost at sea surely.)
Diggle is great - love that his first reaction was "forget it you insane criminal". Love that when he finally agrees to take the job he makes it clear he is no sidekick and still doesn't completely approve but sees a lack of choice.
I really am kind of on the fence about Laurel but think we should give them some time to develop her character better. She is a strong woman who is not foolish, but seems to be unable to make up her mind if she approves, disapproves, or is just conflicted about Arrow's goals and methods. I really think they should play it more as conflicted and stop having her swing completely to and fro from yea to nay and back again.
Island scenes - well hard to watch the lessons but they provide good background to explain need for ruthless behaviour.
Certainly this show is much better realized than that failed show with David Lyons - what was that mess called again? Oh yeah - The Cape.
Where's Arrow?! It's my Wednesday night viewing!
I love Fake Batman too! Somehow I've managed to get my husband to watch it with me. Each week he groans about how bad it is, but he has been sucked in by the conspiracy plot, and now has to watch to see how it all turns out
Love, love, Arrow, so much fun to watch! One of the most entertaining new shows. It's my guilty pleasure for sure...
Here in Canada, I watched it on Tuesday. Not sure why it was being televised on a Tuesday night, but worked well for me since I had a meeting Wed nite.
Crazy about sports!
For some reason, mine didn't dvr correctly. I'll have to watch online instead.
1. In public, Oliver is keeping up his playboy/jerk persona. But with people closer to him, he is showing how he has changed. If he doesn't want people to know that he is Arrow, wouldn't he keep up the playboy/jerk person with everybody? (Well, everybody except those he lets know that he is actually Arrow...)
2. Towards the end of the episode, when Laurel returns to Oliver's house after their mini-makeout session, she says, "Nothing can ever happen between us". Why? He's changed, he's not a jerk anymore. They obviously care about each other, both are attracted to the other... Thought they could have been clearer about why she felt nothing should happen between them. And why he agreed...
It's official. I am madly in love with Meryl Davis.
Well the answer to your 2nd question could be because of her sister's death and her dating Tommy now, his friend. As for him, it is both those and his secret life which he told Diggs she was getting to close to. Plus I can't stand her and I am sure that is another reason why.
Last edited by Buzz; 11-11-2012 at 12:05 PM.
As for Laurel saying "nothing can happen between us" I am thinking she's trying to keep herself emotionally distanced from him cause she's not really sure she can completely trust him -- after all, he did successfully lie in a polygraph. My guess is that she is still emotionally drawn to him but is fighting it -- typical, hey?! I think I understand why he agreed. He knows that Laurel knows he lied and he wants to give her time and space to show her that he really has changed. Not going to show all his cards to her yet. Besides, he has a job to do and he likely doesn't want her involved in his "new" activities -- at least until he believes he can trust her with such knowledge. I think he trusts her to a certain degree -- after all he showed her his scars -- but he's not ready to tell all.
Crazy about sports!

Lee Friedlander
Playing for the Benefit of the Band $65

With more than 200 photographs in the new version, some published for the first time, the collection captures jazz greats and everyday players on their home turf, as well as the city's famed second line parades, between 1957 and 1982.
Melanie Bilenker
Gather Brooch $4,200
Melanie Bilenker's heartbreakingly intimate vignette etched on a simple brooch is a one-of-a-kind accessory. The nude woman expresses something elusive on both sides of the enamel pin, both in her face and her sinewy pose.

Persian-born artist Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian fled occupied Iran during World War II for NYC, and her luminous body of work reflects the lifelong journey.

Matt Austin Studio
Chalk Ware $25
They're mundane items sculpted in humble chalk, yet artist Matt Austin's Junk Drawer collection lends some kind of elegance to the miscellany that piles up around the house. Open tubes of lipstick, dice, screws and classic salt shakers in striking white provide a beautiful version of hodgepodge.
Low Hanging Fruit Tee $35
Sibling duo KOIVU calls their approach "youthful surrealism" but there's doubting this is solid design that's pretty damn funny. Their tongue-in-cheek humor and graphic knack shines through in the Low-Hanging Fruit T-shirt, which paints a bright picture of an otherwise slightly dismal category.
Sigrid Calon

Matt Austin
Carved Wood Cactus $190
Artist Matt Austin has a knack for shaking up familiar motifs and making us look twice. This time, he's reimagined cacti in carved wood—simple, but brilliant.
William Edmonds
William Edmonds Pottery $67
Artist William Edmonds expands his imaginative aesthetic to ceramics, creating household pottery pieces in unexpected but practical shapes. Mugs bring a rustic touch to the table in painterly earth tones glazed to abstract perfection.
Jean Jullien
Bum $134
French artist Jean Jullien takes a cheeky look at beach culture through his series of visual ruminations entitled "La Plage." Inspired by the social oddities of hanging seaside and "how naked it all gets," Jullien created pared-down yet vibrant images of ice cream melting, people swimming and of course, the ubiquitous butt. His abstract, Rothko-like giclée print called "Bum" is the perfect subtle reference ready to shine at home.
American Design Club
The American Design Club gives the classic backyard bag-toss game a handsome facelift with The Cornhole Project. Show off your hand-eye coordination with a cornhole board hand-crafted by Joshua Breeze in Brooklyn and kitted out by a slew of designers, including Brian Farrell, The Principals, Scrapile, Elisa Werbler and more.

If the world wasn't made to fit you, you're in good company. The legends of action sports go through life reveling in originality and crushing conventional ideas beyond recognition. If ordinary sunglasses just don't fit, Fives Squard is the answer. Unlike conventional sunglasses that stick out at the sides, this frame uses Condensed Cranial Geometry for a tapered architecture that feels as good as it looks and it's a look that soaks sophistication in adrenalin. Dimensional reliefs, metal icons and sculpturally integrated hinges take the whole idea of street-smooth style and amp it with attitude.
Our Three-Point Fit maximizes comfort while holding the lenses in precise optical alignment, letting the innovations of High Definition Optics® (HDO®) do their work. Optical performance and impact protection meet ANSI Z87.1 standards, and with 8.75 base lens curvature, you'll have extended peripheral vision and improved side protection against sun, wind and impact. Patented XYZ Optics® helps keep vision sharp at every angle of view. We engineered this sunglass with durable yet lightweight O Matter® and matched it with pure Plutonite® lenses that filter out all UV.
Fives Squared can be fitted with Oakley Authentic Prescription Lenses. Plenty of colors are available for our premium corrective lenses, and if you choose the non-prescription version, you can pick from a range of popular hues. Options include Iridium® coated lenses that precisely balance light transmission and reduce glare, as well as Oakley polarized lenses that kill 99% of glare without muddying your vision with the haze and distortion found with ordinary polarized lenses.
Sometimes truer color recognition is essential, like when you're biking down a mountain and you need to see where the brown of the trail meets the green of the shrubs. Available lenses that help maintain color recognition include Warm Grey, Black Iridium® and Black Iridium® Polarized for bright sun, or Grey for medium bright light. When you need visual contrast and enhanced depth perception, your best choice is Dark Bronze or Bronze Polarized, both of which work well in bright sunlight.

Maybe, and maybe not. Or perhaps it is better phrased that "can do" does not equate to "does do." Or it's just a plot hole. If you could talk to anyone at all, on any Side, don't you think that you'd have a chat with everyone, every turn? There is no down side, and the positives of intelligence gathering and relationship building would seem to make it a no-brainer.oslecamo2 wrote:Eerr, the decrypted archons explicitly said he can make an unlimited number of thinkgrams per turn.
I agree. I just think that if you actually have zero cost to do a thing that can bring you value, that doing that thing would be a matter of habit by now for anyone who isn't a complete idiot. And Charlie isn't being positioned as being a complete idiot. In other words, I'm not buying that Charlie can do unlimited thinkagrams per turn, because if that was true he would actually do unlimited thinkagrams per turn. It is a plot hole, and I doubt this plot hole will be filled. The author needs to learn that citing some capability needs to translate into the logical and practical use of that capability. And anything cited as "unlimited" needs to be very carefully examined indeed.oslecamo2 wrote:Thinking you're on top of things is diferent than actualy being on top of things.
You are listing things that shmucker rich Sides can do. But you are ignoring the fact that shmucker poor Sides have plenty of options as well. Jetstone and TV are both Sides which are described as being shmucker poor right now. This is limiting their options, but neither Side is positioned as being crippled by this. Jetstone, by all conventional wisdom, is about to destroy the invading army. TV is sitting pretty with a new allied nation which is absorbing the direct impact of combat (why this is an advantage to TV is anyone's guess. Caesar at least seems to feel that the shmuckers spent on FAQ would have been better spent on TV. But that is beside the point.). Shmuckers is a part of the game, but a Side can do plenty of things without shmuckers. And really, tribals turning? This has been positioned as being an extremely rare and odd occurrence, despite that fact that the story has showed it happening twice. Using shmuckers to boost the production of troops by creating more allied units is very much like hiring a caster to speed the production of a city. No Side can be faulted for the fact that natural allies have been shown to be unreliable when the author has taken pains to point out that this behavior is very unusual. Hell, Stanley is pissed off that he can't find gobwins, and gobwins turning is the whole reason he is now the Overlord of GK. Stanley isn't a very reliable source of information, but this does show the standard mindset on natural allies.oslecamo2 wrote:Like what? Spamming tribal troops that have a considerable chance of turning against you?
And yet again, Ansom's "polite" offer of discussing terms was by any real knowledge of Erfworld an offer to have the GK units slaughtered out of hand. Labeling it "polite" is like labeling a suggestion to go fuck yourself as polite. Both messages can be delivered with seeming courtesy, but neither is truly courteous.oslecamo2 wrote:Oberon wrote:My point exactly. The "winner" offers some outrageous terms which it knows will be refused, and then attacks with the supposed moral high ground of being able to claim that the other Side was unwilling to come to terms. This is what Ansom offered. There were no real terms offered, it was just "I will have your sword", with no promises to spare any of the GK forces.
Yet, earlier on the strip when Hamster contacted Ansom to provoke him, Ansom politely asked if he wanted to discuss the terms of his surrender. Then Hamster himself made Ansom enter RAGE mode with fae hints that there were traitors on the coalition.
But feel free to keep believing that anything Parson said or did would have deterred Ansom from his goal of ending the GK Side, capturing GK and splitting the treasury amongst the members of the RCC. I find it highly amusing that you can read about the Noble tradition of offering "some perfunctory unacceptable surrender terms, an insult to injury sort of thing, masquerading as mercy. When you refuse, then they will feel justified in shooting us all down" and still believe that nobles offering surrender terms have a higher purpose than self-justification.
Unless Jack is made out to be an unreliable source of information, his offered opinions needs to be considered to be Word of God, especially when the protagonist is basing his plan on Jack's advice. Stanley is the sole source of unreliable information we have to date, with Parson stating something like needing to make a "saving throw vs. suicide" any time he tried to get information out of Stanley. All other mentors for Parson must be considered to be accurate sources of information, or the story would have no basis.

Detroit Pistons Draft Dreams: Demetri McCamey
Alright, I've been looking at enough lottery prospects over the last week. Gotta catch up on some second round guys. I think the consensus is the Pistons need help in the frontcourt, but if a good point guard were available, fans would be happy with that pick as well, as long as all of the intriguing second round bigs were off the board. Demetri McCamey is one of the more interesting prospects who could go early in the second round.
Measurables: 6-foot-3, 200 pounds, senior PG from Illinois
Key stats: 14.6 points, 6.1 assists, 4.3 rebounds per game while shooting 45 percent from the field and 45 percent from three
Projected: Second round
How would he help the Pistons?
There are three things to really like about McCamey: he's big for a PG at 6-3, he's made himself into a great perimeter shooter (hitting 45 percent of his threes this season) and he takes good care of the ball.
The jumpshot is particularly impressive, considering this is what ESPN's Chad Ford wrote about him last year:
He's not a great athlete, nor does he have a consistent jump shot yet.
To go from that description to shooting 45 percent from three in a year shows that McCamey put a tremendous amount of work in. The second round features a lot of players with fairly equal numbers of flaws and limited upside. The key is picking players who have a good chance to work their way into being good role players. Depending on what happens with Rodney Stuckey as a restricted free agent, McCamey might prove to be good insurance should the Pistons be down a point guard heading into next season.
He's also able to play both guard spots, so if Stuckey returns, McCamey wouldn't necessarily be buried on the bench.
How wouldn't he help the Pistons?
McCamey isn't going to be a player who can attack the basket from the PG spot the way Stuckey or even Will Bynum can. Although his numbers from the season were solid, the Illinois offense struggled at times because of McCamey's inability to get in the lane and create shots consistently. McCamey also didn't have the best defensive technique. He's strong enough to be decent at that end of the floor, but he'll need to work on using his body to his advantage because he'll get torched by some of the league's quicker guards.
What are others saying?
Outside the 3-point arc, McCamey demonstrated that he's a top notch shooter at the point guard position, connecting on an excellent 45% of his 3-pointers this season. He's comfortable shooting off the dribble or off the catch, and he has range well past the NBA 3-point line. This bodes well for him going forward, and should help to open up the floor for dribble penetration for himself and his teammates, especially if he needs to spend time playing off the ball, which is certainly a possibility at his size.
McCamey was another player who, after three years at Illinois, looked like a known quantity. He was a big, physical guard with deep range on his jump shot. Illinois never really asked him to run the show until this season. Now, he's making the most of it.
Throughout the years, I've seen him add many moves to his arsenal, and he's been a better player as a result. One thing that was really working last year, but not so much this year, is the pull-up and shoot three, on a fast-break. It only makes sense for him to develop this shot as his momentum is so strong on fast-breaks that with defenders back-away so quickly, him pulling up and shooting gives him a wide open look. He hit it pretty regularly last year, but I haven't seen it go down as often this season. Another move that came up huge in big games last season is the end-of shotclock isolation play: 2 cross-overs, step back, and nail the fade-away three. That almost single-handedly beat Wisconsin at the Kohl Center last year and began talks of the NBA draft.

A tall point guard will go a long way to solving the issue we have when Ben Gordon is on the floor. Playing along side Gordon that PG would also have to be a good defender. I am still hoping we go for size with all our picks but if a good PG drops down then i am all for it.

I really want to like McCamey for what he is capable of doing, but the fact that his team wildly underperformed in his last two years is cause for concern, especially since he was the floor leader. Maybe it had something to do with Bruce Weber's coaching, but I would have liked to see McCamey lift his team on his back during Big 10 play, but more often than not they just floundered. Probably part of the reason he's a second rounder at best.
