BROWNVILLE A group of about 30 community members, teachers, students, administrators and one board member gathered Tuesday at the fire hall to start a grassroots effort to save the General Brown Central School District.
The district faces both fiscal and educational insolvency due to a nearly $1.8 million deficit that could mean the potential loss of at least 23 positions, four programs and related services that could be reduced or eliminated. Many at the meeting agreed they need to come up with strategies in the next few weeks before the Board of Education adopts its spending plan and help board members plan for the future.
Two main questions linger: what are people willing to give up, and how much more money are they willing to pay to avoid some cuts?
Living in a society we all pay our taxes, said Sandra Young Klindt, a Dexter resident who has children attending Dexter Elementary. Im paying Social Security, welfare and Medicaid. School taxes are something weve all benefited from. When we were in school 10, 20 or 30 years ago, our neighbors were paying school taxes so we could get an education. Were paying it forward. We need to sell our school.
Mrs. Klindt, who is running for a board seat in May, said if the consensus is to go for the highest tax levy increase of just over 27 percent needed to keep programs and jobs from being cut, then people will need to persuade their neighbors of the need.
The districts 2012-13 budget is $20,829,411, with a $6,384,854 tax levy.
Jamie M. Lee, meeting co-organizer who has children that attend Dexter Elementary, said throughout the next two days people could submit questions via the Facebook page For Kids Sake, save General Brown Jobs, which was created by Kory Kittle.
After questions and comments are submitted, Mrs. Lee and meeting co-organizer Penny J. Price will send one list of questions to General Brown Business Manager Lisa K. Smith. Once responses to those questions are received, the group will meet again to determine a course of action and have facts people could bring door-to-door to educate their neighbors about the proposed 2013-14 spending plan and how it could be paid for.
Im willing to walk my road, Mr. Kittle said.
Daniel J. Dupee II, the only board member to attend the meeting, said a group of people the district needs to educate about the budget process are people ages 18 and up who may vote, but who dont pay school taxes. Something everyone has to realize, he said, is that a double-digit tax levy increase will be needed over the next three years.
This is a perfect example of why you never do a 0 percent increase, he said.
Last year, the board approved a 2.8 percent tax levy increase.
A few people at the meeting suggested getting General Brown students involved, and one teacher, who declined to be identified, suggested the district offer half-day kindergarten to avoid large kindergarten classroom sizes. Other ideas included consolidating the junior-senior high school late bus run with those of the afternoon runs from both Dexter and Brownville-Glen Park elementary schools and researching how to go about selling advertising on athletic fields and other school district property.
To join the discussion, people may request to join the Facebook group by logging onto the social media site and searching the group name. Mrs. Lee said people could also send her an email at email@example.com. Budget information is also on the district website, www.gblions.org.

According to a new press release at nokia.com, Nokia says user experience improvements are coming in 2010. At the company's annual Capital Markets Day event, senior executives noted Nokia Cell Phone core competitive advantages in the mobile devices market when outlining plans of success for the company. The goal of the annual event is to share progress and goals with the Nokia's investors in order to maintain financial strength for the company.
Nokia's CEO, Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, made statements at the event about Nokia's plans to bring Symbian to new levels in 2010 by improving user interface experiences. Kallasvuo also said that the Symbain operating system has the flexibility and capability to become the world's largest platform for mobile service and the company is going to push for global growth in the industry. A demonstration of Symbian user interface improvements was also provided at the event.
Symbian is currently a popular Smartphone platform, but is facing serious competition from the Apple iPhone. Nokia is hoping to position smartphones down to new price points globally, but the company has recognized that in order to keep up Symbian has to become more appealing to its users. Some visual samples of Nokia's plan are available at engadget.com.
Nokia is pulling its focus towards speed and visual appeal in order to stay in the game. Plans are set for larger screens on their mobile phones with multi-touch and single tap controls for the users. The company is also hoping to make all this happen three times faster than the program currently does things.
Overall, if Nokia says user experience improvements are coming, they have their work cut out for them. Several other companies are steadily working alongside them for a piece of the market share. Hopefully, all this competition will deliver some fantastic results to consumers.

After you complete the film you will submit a logline on the Wrap Up Form, which you turn in with your final paperwork on Sunday. Your logline will go into our Film Catalogue and will go to the judges to help them remember the film.
What's a logline? It's a very short, catchy summary of the story, usually not longer than one sentence.
Here is an example:
"Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl seeks a way home to Kansas, befriending along the way a scarecrow without a brain, a tin woodsman without a heart, and a lion without courage."
A logline is not the phrase that might appear on a movie poster. That's a tagline.
This is a tagline:
"Every second counts when you have 48 hours to make a film."
This is a logline:
"Brilliant filmmakers fight the clock to produce a film in only 48 hours."
Some advice on writing a good logline:
- The logline's job is to provide a quick sense of the story and make us want more.
- It presents the major plot of the story without character intricacies and sub-plots.
- It is the story boiled down to its essential essence.
- Many writing books encourage you to write the logline before you write the story, to clarify the intent of the story from the start.

National Book Critics Circle Award, Nonfiction, 2013
From the National Book Award-winning author of the "brave...deeply humane...open-minded, critically informed, and poetic" (The New York Times) The Noonday Demon, comes a game-changer of a book about the impact of extreme personal and cultural difference between parents and children.
A brilliant and utterly original thinker, Andrew Solomon's journey began from his experience of being the gay child of straight parents. He wondered how other families accommodate children who have a variety of differences: families of people who are deaf, who are dwarfs, who have Down syndrome, who have autism, who have schizophrenia, who have multiple severe disabilities, who are prodigies, who commit crimes, who are transgender. Bookended with Solomon's experiences as a son, and then later as a father, this book explores the old adage that says the apple doesn't fall far from the tree; instead some apples fall a couple of orchards away, some on the other side of the world.
In 12 sharply observed and moving chapters, Solomon describes individuals who have been heartbreaking victims of intense prejudice, but also stories of parents who have embraced their childrens' differences and tried to change the world's understanding of their conditions. Solomon's humanity, eloquence, and compassion give a voice to those people who are never heard. A riveting, powerful take on a major social issue, Far from the Tree offers far-reaching conclusions about new families, academia, and the way our culture addresses issues of illness and identity.
©2012 Andrew Solomon (P)2012 Simon & Schuster, Inc
"In Far from the Tree, Andrew Solomon reminds us that nothing is more powerful in a child's development than the love of a parent. This remarkable new book introduces us to mothers and fathers across America - many in circumstances the rest of us can hardly imagine - who are making their children feel special, no matter what challenges come their way." (President Bill Clinton)
"This is one of the most extraordinary books I have read in recent times - brave, compassionate and astonishingly humane. Solomon approaches one of the oldest questions - how much are we defined by nature versus nurture? - and crafts from it a gripping narrative. Through his stories, told with such masterful delicacy and lucidity, we learn how different we all are, and how achingly similar. I could not put this book down." (Siddhartha Mukherjee, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Emperor of All Maladies)
"An informative and moving book that raises profound issues regarding the nature of love, the value of human life, and the future of humanity." (Kirkus)
"A Gripping Masterpiece"
This is one of the most intelligent, expansive, and interesting books I have ever listened to - but it is not for everyone. It is very long and some of the topics are distressing, but gripping. I have no children special or otherwise, but I am a retired special ed teacher and have always wondered how people dealt with having a disabled child.
Mr. Solomon does not "talk down" to the reader. He expects his reader to be well-educated and with a good vocabulary. His Ivy League education, intelligence and literacy infuse each page. I'm so glad Mr. Solomon narrated his own book. His voice is a little hard to get used to, but I grew to love the sound of it - and grew to love him as well. Only he could inflect the voices of the people he interviewed. I'm glad I took the time to listen to it instead of reading it. Hearing it made the book great to me. I don't think I would have enjoyed it nearly as much if I had read it. Listening forces you to slow down and hear each word. I am a very fast reader and miss a lot of detail and beauty of language - listening to books has opened up a new world of literature for me, and this non-fiction book is written so beautifully that I'm glad I heard every word.
If you are interested in this subject, have the time to sink yourself deeply into a fascinating new world, I highly recommend this beautiful book.
English major. Love to read
I don't know how I am going to go on to my next book. Andrew Solomon's voice, physically and emotionally, has found its way into my soul. If you are reading this review, you know what this book is about (is it dry, you ask?), you know it is very, very long and that some people have said that his narration is flawed.
The book has more than research; it weaves research with case studies that makes the research live and breathe and stay with you far longer than you can imagine (I usually read fiction!). It is very, very long, but I slowed the listening of it down at the very end because I couldn't bear not to be listening to these stories of profound courage. I relished its length.
And Andrew's voice (I am calling him Andrew because he shared his story with me) brings you carefully and warmly into these people's lives while delineating his comprehensive but not boring research. He doesn't compare to Colin Firth but who's comparing? It doesn't matter because once you get the cadence down, he is telling you a startling story and he will capture you. AND he is a beautiful writer.
I am grateful to have been able to listen to this book.
"A peek into deeply challenged lives"
Eye-opening, poignant, triumphant
The forgiveness of a healthcare worker by parents whose MDS child who died because of a random careless act.
I believe a different narrator, not the author but a professional actor would elevate the experience of listening.
The question of correcting 'flaws' of nature in lieu of accepting a creature as created by God and by genetics, etc. creates a paradox with mixed feelings and a sense of knowing that either choice can be right or wrong but inevitably is irrevocable.
For parents and future parents because you never know if you will be a subject of such a book.
"Worldview Shift"
Recieving a new, different perspective on human diversity.
At first I actually thought is was a robot reader. He is flat, choppy, and sounds like a synthetic voice. I've heard him give interviews and he was vibrant and engaged; however, not so in the reading. I acatually considered not listening, but the content is worth putting up with the performance.
Hire a professional performer so the reading is as good as the content.
Growth occurs through connecting with all that is possible within any human.
A book that will change lives.
"Thought-provoking, challenging work."
I would absolutely recommend this book. Solomon has crafted a book that is astonishing in its scope, brilliant in its observations, and compassionate with its intensely personal material.
The depth of the research and the gentle and compassionate way that Solomon treats his subjects brings an incredible intimacy to each of his topics - deafness, down syndrome, autism, dwarfism, multiple severe disabilities, rape, crime - allowing the listener insight into issues and worlds of horizontal identities that might forever be out of sight to those not touched personally by the issues. His overarching thesis brings the threads of difference and disability together in a way that deeply affects the listener/reader.
As the mother of a child on the autism spectrum, his discussion of autism was closest to my heart. However, it was in his discussion of the ways in which parenthood and children's identity create complex emotional issues that parents must navigate that I found profoundly moving.
In my opinion, anyone affected by any of the differences or disabilities he discusses would find this book deeply moving. However, it is also my opinion that any parent, or in fact anyone at all, would come away from this work with new perspectives on compassion, understanding, and the nature of identity. For this reason, I think everyone who reads or listens to this work will come away a better person.
54 yrs, ,memb 12yrs,library -75%nonfic 10% fiction,15% classics. History, all sciences, bio, classics,diverse other interests.
This is the kind of book I search for. This book is TRULY remarkable. This book not only stretched my humanity, it opened a whole new vista. The biggest mistake you can make is to think that this book isn't for you, this book is for everyone and anyone who wants to enrich their experience of being alive.
The authors ability to articulate these stories ( including his own) with such honesty, depth and sensitivity are one thing. His stunning prowess really comes through when he extrapolates the wisdom within them and conveys these multifaceted insights with such remarkable clarity - It took my breath away! Wow this guy can write!
It's often a mistake for authors to narrate their own work- but not here. I think he did a really fine job of it and considering the intimacy of the work and the way he bares his soul, it seems almost necessary that he should do the narration.
Solomon wrote a book before this one on depression called THE NOONDAY DEMON-AN ATLAS OF DEPRESSION. it won the national book award in 2002 , Unfortunately its only available as abridged on audible at the moment -though I understand its 570pgs in its uncut form which may make its abridged form more accessible for some and not a bad option.
Im definitely going to be watching for more from Andrew Solomon, His combination of talents are rare and desperately needed in our time. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION
This is a quiet listen for those interested in the psychology of atypical parent-child relationships. It won't grip you, it won't suck you in, but you can pick up and listen at any point and get into it, which is unusual for an audiobook. I learned a lot about people with disabilities from this book, and have gained an appreciation for the exceptional circumstances depicted herein.
"A Must Read for Parents and Educators"
Yes - this book is celebrates the differences in all of us while depicting the joys and sorrows of having children who create a new normal.
The mix of personal stories with research about every topic he writes about made this book flow. Many of the personal stories were heartbreaking or made you cringe. Then he would detail the research about the particular topic - then another story. Fantastic.
This book is 40 hours of listening. Reading through this book would have required an enormous amount of 'sitting' time. Listening allows the 'reader' to work out, cook, clean, do laundry, etc and makes each activity more enjoyable.
Yes it made me laugh and cry at various times.
Thank you
Avid reader of classics and fiction, history and well-written genre novels. Music lover and huge audiobook fan.
"Moving study of identity and unconditional love"
This was a very long book with great emotional impact. It is very heartfelt and sincere and one of the most moving books I have read. I usually am wary of authors who read their own books, but the emotion of the author adds meaning to this text and is an important part of the experience. The book is a very personal exploration of the experience of parenthood of children who fall 'far from the tree'. The author interviews hundreds of families, focusing on parents with children who are 'different'. Most are children who are different from 'typical' society as well as different from their parents. The author refers to the identity shared with others not of the family as 'horizontal' identity. This is distinguished from a 'vertical' identity from family membership (i.e. father down to son). However the book also studies the issue of parents who purposefully or incidentally conceive children who share their horizontal identity. The issues the book raises are complex, emotional, and sometimes challenging and frustrating (not in terms of comprehension but rather in terms of experiencing emotionally difficult subject matter and politically/philosophically/religiously sensitive views). The book explores the limits of human morality and human dignity. The author concludes that the ability to sustain a horizontal identity with the love and support of parents and family is critical to a happy life for people whose lives are considered 'not typical' and that the ability to accept and embrace these horizontal identities -especially when it is foreign to us- is part of what 'love' requires.
I cannot say it is the 'best' book I ever read, or even the best I have read recently, but it is one of the most meaningful ones due to the weight of its subject. It's about identity, parental love, loss, fulfillment, disability, eugenics, abortion - pretty weighty stuff. What is wonderful about this book is that it presents the reader with the situation that initially faced the unwary parents and then pushes you to look at the situation from different perspectives. It discusses the implications of actions that are very emotional and asks you - or maybe forces you to examine the logical or illogical conclusions of your own beliefs and prejudices and those of the parents involved. It asks you to consider what you take for granted and what you are willing to reconsider in light of what you hear.
The book stemmed from the author's own experience of growing up gay with parents who initially rejected that identity in their son. He seems to have suffered his own homophobia as a result even after he grew comfortable as an adult with a gay identity. Thus, the question of identity and parental love is central to his quest to understand the many identities of the people in the different groups he studies - deaf children, those with autism, Downs Syndrome children, criminal children, schizophrenics, etc. Sometimes the book bogs down with all the different identities and examples, but it is always valuable and sincere and the multiplicity of examples helps to illuminate different aspects of the issues.
The book ends with a discussion of the author's own decision to become a parent. It's thus a very personal book as well as a study of parents and children with 'horizontal identities'. It is very focused on parental love and unconditional love and the nature of acceptance. Although I highly recommend the book, I think those who find it most satisfying will be those with some connection to people with horizontal identities or readers with very open minds willing to ask themselves questions that don't always have easy or evident answers.
Semper Audiendo
"Parenting a Different Child/Astounding Book"
The morning of December 14, 2012, I had a long drive and intermittent NPR stations, so I continued to listen to "Far From the Tree". The printed book is 702 pages long, and it's about 40 Audible hours. I was on Chapter X, Crime.
The book is beautifully narrated, and author/narrator Andrew Solomon's pronounciation of difficult terms is flawless. Even so, it's a difficult listen.
I have often wished that Audible had a true Table of Contents, and never more than with this book. The chapters are (with thanks to Amazon print) I. Son; II.Deaf III. Dwarfs IV. Downs Syndrome V. Autism VI. Schizophrenia VII. Disabilities VIII. Prodigies IX. Rape X. Crime XI. Transgender XII. Father.
Each section could, on its own, be a separate book - with the exception of I. Son and XII. Father - combine those two, and those would make a book.
Dwight Garner and Julie Meyer, writing separate reviews for the New York Times in November, love the book unreservedly. After listening to "Columbine", I was thinking of using a credit for this new book. I purchased "Far From the Tree" right after reading Meyer's rhapsodic review.
I am the mother of two teenagers who would not be in any of Solomon's chapters, but each and every section made me ache with my love for them. The challenges of normal teenagers, with raging hormones, lightning fast mood changes, and their sudden bursts of astounding clarity pale in comparison to what Solomon's families face. I am a better parent to them knowing that they are 'normal'.
I'm not a physician, sociologist or therapist - I'm just a Mom. I gained real confidence in trying my best to be a good Mom from this book. It was the best 'parenting' book I've read since "What to Expect When You're Expecting" by Heidi Muroff and Sharon Mazel. The books are entirely different, but reading them has the same effect. I am more (not less) confident about my mothering because of these books.
Which brings me back to December 14, 2012, the day of the Newtown/Sandy Hook mass murder. I have been wondering since then whether Sue Klebold, if given the choice, would have rather have been in Nancy Lanza's position - killed before she knew what her son did. I suspect not, and I hope Solomon can answer the queston for us.

Anyone looking for a decent CA player invite me! I'll fill a position!
Hi guys.
I wanted to clear some things up here.
There is good news and there is bad.
The bad news is that our webmaster has departed due to unforeseen circumstances relating to serious personal issues. Along with his departure went the domain and website and all the data that we had (users, rosters, teams etc)
The good news is that the league will still happen but it is currently postponed until we can get a new domain back up and running and have the rosters/data inputted.
If anyone in the community knows web design and would like to help out and or can spare their time with creating a new site then please message me. We don't need anything fancy, just something operational at this point in time in order to proceed with the league.
I would like to express my most sincere apologies to everyone involved as the rug was literally pulled out underneath my feet without any warning. I have spent a countless amount of time and effort organizing everything and getting the community involved and there is no way I am letting this obstacle dissolve the league.
Thank you
I'm sure there's some open source software out there that will do it.
GL re-organizing it, everyone was planning on starting this weekend, I say you start it anyway, then throw something up by next week. Everyone knows who they're supposed to play.
Pencil and paper that sht
I might be able to help with this, but I have no team so I'm not sure it's worth the time
Last edited by syncore; 12-07-2012 at 07:49 PM.
I'd like to volunteer helping with this.
I can provide a server for webhosting, and hosting of files (screenshots demos) if needed, and admin/site setup.
I'd also be happy in setting up a website, with design for this. (probably build off a cms, unless someone wants to volunteer with ruby/python help)

hi i would like to put my team on it how can i do ?
Hi Guys!
The new website has been launched! There will be plenty of updates coming in the next few weeks.
Please check it out at ---> www.qlgl.net <--- and if you have any questions please join our iRC channel ---> #QLGL <--- on irc.quakenet.org or you can email us with your questions/feedback at [email protected]
A special thanks to syncore for his hardwork and dedication to developing the new site and Bearadactyl for the hosting/domain.
Please ensure you read the rules and news on the site on how to register your clan. There are instructions for players and there are instructions for Team Captains. On a side note the map pool for the iCTF league needs to be updated as the site currently lists the old map pool.
In addition, since we are coming into a very busy time of the year the new league start date will commence in early January. The date has not been finalized but it will most likely start on Saturday Janauary 5th, 2013. For the time being, round up your clan mates and have them register on the site. Lastly, don't forget to get your roster organized and get some more practice in before the new year!
Thank you all for your support and patience!
Hi everyone!
Just wanted to remind all players and teams to re-register if you have not already done so on our new website @ www.qlgl.net
If you haven't had a chance to register your team please do so as soon as possible. Signup deadline closes on Saturday January 5th @ 11:59pm.
Season 1 will commence on January 12th, 2013. We have 200 players now registered and over 30 teams for the CA league.
Here's to a prosperous first season and a brand new year!
It might get moved but, I recommend at least trying to make a post in general discussion, as well as on ESR.
I noticed a lot of teams haven't signed up, and those that have either have only a few players or none at all.
Also would be great if the 8 player limit could be increased :-)

beyerdynamic system sold on the river Thames
beyerdynamic (GB) Ltd have recently supplied a TTS 300 multi-channel Tourguide system for the British Airways London Eye official cruise boat on the River Thames, installed by Antenna Audio.
Departing from its own pier, adjacent to the London Eye, the round trip runs for 40 minutes and takes in some of the most famous buildings in the capital, including St Paul's Cathedral, the Houses of Parliament, the Tower of London, HMS Belfast, Shakespeare's Globe, the Tate Modern and the Millenium Bridge.
The installed beyerdynamic TTS system includes 90 beltpack receivers and delivers live commentary and simultaneous translation as well as pre-recorded translations in 8 different languages - French, Spanish, German, Dutch, Italian, Russian, Japanese and Mandarin. It can handle up to 12 channels if required via innovative CT 316 transmitters and individual FE 316 beltpack receivers. The LG 30 recharging system is managed by a microprocessor, integrated 'dU' switch-off system and timer. This protects the FE 316 batteries against overcharging, while a dual colour LED display indicates charging-in-process and charging complete.
"We were very pleased to work with Antenna Audio in developing a versatile system to meet all the demands required for the river boat" said Matt Nettlefold, Conference and Presentation Manager for beyerdynamic (GB) Ltd. "The whole system is conveniently stowed away in 2 lightweight flight cases, with automatic recharging between trips. There is also provision for a T-loop signal for the hard of hearing"
The beyerdynamic TTS system also offers a choice of handheld or beltpack transmitter types. The beltpack transmitters can be charged internally (via the LG 30/P charging unit) or powered by an off-the-shelf 9v alkaline battery. A selection of different single and double-sided ear-pieces are available for use with TTS, including the single-sided DT 1S. These sit on the outside of the ear, which also minimises the need to sterilise between users.

Next, you'll tour the neighboring Elephant Cave (Goa Gajah), one of Bali's most historically significant sites. The facade of this ninth-century sanctuary is carved with creatures and demons, and you'll enter the cave through one of the mystical mouths. The tour then brings you to the cool mountains of Kintamani. Admire Mount Batur—with ribbons of black lava running down its peak into the valley below—and the shimmering lake of Batur. When you return to the city, you'll stop at the holy springs, believed to possess magical curative powers.
Days 5 and 6: No planned activities means you're free to spend the days in Ubud as you please.
Days 7 to 10: You'll transfer east to the Alila Manggis resort near Candidasa. Your four days and nights here are free for you to spend at your leisure.
Day 11: Depart the resort and head to the airport to catch your return flight to the US.
"Idyllic Bali is both a physical paradise and a place of almost mystic spirituality. The Balinese have managed to preserve a native optimism and sense of sanctity about their rich culture. Simply put, Bali is one of the most beautiful places on earth."-- Frommer's

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- Relive chapter 1 of Robert Griffin III's rookie season as a Redskin.
March 9th, 2012 -- The Redskins trade for Robert Griffin III
What to remember: If you love the Washington Redskins, March 9th should be celebrated like a national holiday. And if you recall the reaction the trade news stirred up one year ago, it mildly recreated some of those jubilant feelings felt in January 1992, you know, the last time Redskins fans watched Joe Gibbs get drenched with Gatorade. Twenty years and two months after Super Bowl XXVI in Minnesota, March 9th put New Year's Eve to shame. It was better than Trick-or-Treating for the million who worship the burgundy and gold. Random people were embracing each other with high fives and hugs in all sorts of public settings. Cars were beeping their horns in tune with "RG3!" chants. Area residents were literally and psychically drunk off of the news. The pure euphoria on Redskins fans faces -- and sunken stares of disbelief from Cowboys, Giants and Eagles brass -- provided the city with a numbing feeling, and this time a positive emotion for a change. Indeed the first chapter was born.
What we know now: Patience is the mightiest of virtues. And those draft picks were totally worth it.
April 24th, 2012 -- RGIII Meets the D.C. Media
What to remember: I first met Griffin in a Subway sandwich shop in Manhattan, on a Tuesday at 1 p.m. A marketing genius, Griffin would tally the most money ever for a rookie on endorsements before ever touching the field. All four local television stations were in attendance. All three local major newspapers had representatives, in addition to WTOP, WTEM and WKJF radio. The moment Griffin strolled out of a big black SUV with an entourage of marketing people and agents, enthusiasm and nerves crept into the tiny Subway. But Griffin was at ease and thrived in the chaotic atmosphere -- flashing lights, 15 microphones inches from his face, bloggers and cameramen standing on chairs with cameras. Rocking his green Subway socks and toothy smile, Griffin did what he does best: he won over the crowd. He swooned for roughly 35 minutes and told us "see ya Thursday." There's one additional sentence the quarterback preached to the crowd, which turned out to be the truest thing he's ever said: "You can't play the game scared." Fear is something the confident and collected Griffin doesn't have to do deal with.
What we know now: Griffin's media intrigue was even better than we originally anticipated. He's an open book. He's honest about everything. He'll even drop a joke once every few days. He gets it. Congress honestly needs more people like him. It became clear the local public was about to become infatuated with every move he made.
April 26th, 2012 -- Redskins select Griffin No.2 overall in NFL Draft
What to remember: It was the least speculative NFL draft the Redskins have ever been involved in. Griffin became the answer to the 20-year question mark at signal caller. Bye-bye Patrick Ramsey; hello Mr. Heisman.
What we know now: Dan Snyder was no longer the face of the Redskins franchise. Disrespecting the Redskins organization and chastising Washington's front office decison making was now a challenge for snarky NFL media professionals.
May 18th, 2012 -- Griffin appears on Jay Leno
What to remember: This was a significant moment for someone like myself who grew up in the Washington D.C. area. Previous sports stars from the nation's capital -- Gilbert Arenas, Alex Ovechkin, hell even Cal Ripken Jr. -- were too bland to be celebrated on a national level. Not anymore. Before he even stepped onto the field, Griffin's charm was winning over neutral fans.
What we know now: RGIII can beat beatbox and also NBC executives probably took note of Griffin's mass appeal. Although it would be hard to top Peyton Manning, hosting Saturday Night Live in the years to come is a distinct possibility. Griffin embraces his celebrity to a T.
Late July 2012 -- Shanahan puts Griffin's locker next to London Fletcher's
What to remember: Rich Campbell has the full story here. Mike Shanahan brilliantly forced this to happen, recognizing Griffin's god given talent in uniting all types of cliques together. Griffin's present leadership and serious practice tendencies made less talented players -- Josh Morgan, Alfred Morris etc -- believe they could flourish in this offense. Being negative were the Redskins of old. The Fletcher/Griffin leadership duo turned out to be a lethal combination for NFC East foes. Teammates bought in. Griffin's locker space later caused a stir when it was revealed he housed figurines of Spider Man and the Incredible Hulk, and several motivational quotes.
What we know now: Even if Fletcher retires following the 2013 season, Griffin will remember and cherish their relationship. In fact, I'll almost argue that Griffin willed himself to play in the Seattle playoff game out of his admiration for Fletcher's consecutive game streak. Let that sink in. It makes total sense.
July 26th, 2012 -- Redskins unveil pistol formation during training camp
What to remember: I remember vividly Redskins public relations officials expressed Coach Shanahan's displeasure with reporters tweeting out the Redskins new-look offense, which in hindsight makes a ton of sense. Remember, Washington didn't use the formation once during the preseason, which at the time made the pistol seem like a gimmicky practice routine. I even wrote that Griffin seemed to be playing scared and that Alfred Morris could be a sleeper.
What we know now: Little did we know at the time that Kyle Shanahan was about to put his stamp all up and down NFL film rooms. His pistol offense not only catapulted the Redskins to shatter franchise rushing records set by 'The Hogs', it arguably put San Francisco in the Super Bowl and nearly made Russell Wilson nab the Rookie of the Year award from RGIII. More colleges are going to experiment with running quarterbacks, meaning this trendy offense in the NFL is not on its way out.
August 25h, 2012 -- RGIII vs. Andrew Luck round 1
What to remember: It had buzz like any other preseason game in recent football memory. Which is basically saying you drank 10 O'Douls beers. This was the first time Griffin ever noticeably got irritated over the ever-prevalent Andrew Luck questions he'd been asked repeatedly. Perturbed and all, Griffin still managed fired off this gem: "It's not just something you can push away. It's going to be there our entire careers."
What we know now: Could a Luck vs. Griffin Super Bowl be the NFL's answer to Magic Johnson vs. Larry Bird? It was that easy to tell in August these two players were bust-proof.
September 9th, 2012 -- "Griffining"
What to remember:Even though Pierre Garcon's legs were mostly responsible,Griffin's 88-yard score might go down as the most iconic first touchdown pass in NFL history.Merchandise and cameo's of "Griffining" went viral for the following month.
What we know now: As much as I have and will continue to praise Griffin, this moment for me is near the bottom of his dozens during chapter 1. Sorry, but I'm violently sick of Tebowing, Harlem Shaking, Planking, Gangam Styling, etc. The people who watch YouTube for hours at a time are making our country a dumber place. Sorry, cynical rant over.
September 30th, 2012 -- First fourth quarter comeback
What to remember: Some of you won't vividly recall Griffin's stellar game at Tampa Bay (26-35, 323 passing yards, 36 yards rushing, one rushing touchdown). With 1:56 left on the clock, RGIII engineered a seven play, 56-yard drive, culminating in a Billy Cundiff (lol) game winning kick. Griffin's 15-yard scramble was one of his most underrated plays all season.
What we know now: After this win, there was almost little doubting that Griffin was already a more equipped competitor than Buccaneers QB Josh Freeman, and most other gunslingers the Redskins would play. Griffin's missile of an arm, lively legs, lack of turnovers and decison making were undeniable, even to his loudest NFC East naysayers. A 22-year-old rookie from Baylor had established himself as Washington's most valuable asset, just four games into the season. Griffin said following the win, "You want the ball in your hands. When something has to happen, you make it happen. And that's what we did."
October 7th, 2012 -- First Concussion
What to remember: Question time for you. How many scrambles did Robert Griffin III have in this game against Atlanta? Come on, take a guess. The drive in which he received a concussion was the his FIRST and ONLY scramble of the game. Griffin later admitted he got too risky on the dash next to the sideline. Slate.com does a wonderful job of statistically proving quarterbacks are just as likely to get hurt in the pocket as they are out of it.
What we know now: If Mike Shanahan had followed suit with several Washington Post columnists, Brian Mitchell, much of the 106.7 brass, and half of the fan base, and put RGIII in a Rex Grossman 2011-style offense, the Redskins would've tanked. They would've folded, RGIII-damned and all. Without a pistol formation, you'd see Alfred Morris' impact nearly cut in half. The threat of Griffin's legs joined by his fearless mindset left Kyle Shanahan with no choice but to design some of Griffin's runs through the option, instead letting him roam completely wild. Several Fox, ESPN and CBS commentators would note throughout the season how Redskins wide receivers get unbelievably wide open thanks to the pistol/option.
October 14th, 2012 -- "The Run"
What to remember: People tend to forget, this 76-yard scamper to glory took place just two days after the Nationals were eliminated in one of baseball's biggest heartbreaks, EVER. Griffin's touchdown run was like NyQuil and chicken soup for the wounded city of D.C.
What we know now: You know how some diehard 'Skins fans have that poster of John Riggins fourth-and-one run from Super Bowl XVII? I bet in 15 years fans will add Griffin's peak-back at the lone Vikings defender. It was a you-remember-where-you-were, this-type-of-play-never-happens moment.
October 14th, 2012 -- Fred Davis nicknames RGIII "Black Jesus."
What to remember: We all heard this, laughed, and also secretly agreed.
What we know now: If Davis is still convinced Griffin is Jesus, and he leaves Jesus in free agency, he's going to hell, right? Also I wonder if RG has called to talk to Davis at all during this process. I wonder if/when Griffin will get involved in free agency and draft decisions. You know Snyder would be tickled to have him in a meeting room setting.
November 4th, 2012 -- Rock Bottom
What to remember: Mike Shanahan's quote after the loss to Carolina: "Now you're playing to see who obviously is going to be on your football team for years to come. Now we get a chance to evaluate players and see where we're at." Of course Shanny argued his quotes were misconstrued but there was a good portion of redneck radio callers and distraught bloggers agreeing with Shanahan sentiment about evaluation mode.
What we know now: How about the real leader, Griffin's quote: "The media will say your record is what you are, but I just don't feel like our record is what we are." Griffin loved the challenge of putting Baylor on the map and certainly wasn't going to simply fold because the cards were stacked against him in D.C.
November 22nd, 2012 -- Turkey Day in Dallas
What to remember: NFL fans love to see Dallas, and particularly Tony Romo, suffer. Griffin granted the people their wish by beating the stuffing out of the Cowboys -- before a late Dez Bryant powered rally. Washington led 28-3 at one point in the first half, evoking memories of Super Bowl XXII and Doug Williams. Griffin was utterly flawless, throwing darts over the middle to Garcon and jet fighter bombs 60-yards to Aldrick Robinson. It really was like watching art, in front of a national audience albeit. All of a sudden, playing Dallas was fun again. The Cowboys were inferior now. The Redskins were the bullies. A torch had been passed.
What we know now: The Redskins were officially back in the playoff hunt. And some baby from Arizona has to be named Robert Griffin because of the quarterbacks March 9th trade vindicating performance. Also, beating Dallas is all that matters to 'Skins fans over the age of 55. So he's super cool with them now.
December 9th, 2012 -- The beginning of RG-Knee
What to remember: The injury saga that continues to ache many a heart across the D.C. area began on this misty Sunday at Fed Ex Field. On a 2nd-and-19 play with less than two minutes remaining -- aka four-down territory -- Griffin felt pressure up the middle, and whisked towards the left sideline. After gaining a decent six-or-so yards, Griffin did what any scrambling quarterback in the league would've done, bolting up field instead of out-of-bounds. He took a cringe-worthy blow to his left knee from Haloti Ngata. Remember Griffin returned to the game for four pretty productive plays, before an intentional grounding. Kirk Cousins pulled a comeback against the Super Bowl champs out of his ass, in what was one of the most compelling games in Fed Ex Field history.
What we know now: It all makes sense now. Griffin left the game against Baltimore for a snap, brought himself back in the game, played four more snaps until he couldn't stand any longer. RGIII went 2/3 for 37-yards, putting the Redskins at the 16-yardline. At that very moment, it's arguable he's as injured if-not more than he was against Seattle in the second half. Griffin produced against Baltimore and I believe could've potentially produced against Seattle.
December 3, 2012 -- Monday Night Upset
What we remember: I remember the luckiest fumble recovery ever, and thinking this team could do no wrong. By the time December 3rd had arrived, Griffin's best games of the season were long gone. Regrettably for Washington opponents, the Redskins roster had completely bought into Griffin and the defense had new life following the bye week. Alfred Morris, Rob Jackson and Griffin's 72 rushing yards gave the Redskins a 17-16 victory.
What we know now: Griffin's rushing totals against the Giants: 14 carries, 161 yards which equals 11.5 yards per carry.There's a reason the New York coaching staff is chatting with college coaches about how to stop the read option.
December 13th, 2012 -- "Cornball Brother"
What to remember: Journalism at its lowest form.
What we know now: It's sad that our country has to acknowledge manufactured dirt on ESPN 2's First Take and over cover it. As racist and absurd as a comment it was, it was even more our fault for continuing to rant about it for days. We all need to learn to ignore certain sports tabloid stories. Also we learned its impossible to say anything negative towards Griffin.
December 17th, 2012 -- RGIII has the top selling jersey
What to remember: This was bound to happen.
What we know now: How many years does he stay in the top three?
December 30th, 2012 -- Clinching the NFC East
What to remember: Adrian Peterson was mashing his way towards the coveted NFL rushing record against the hated Green Bay Packers -- and that game didn't come close to consideration for being flexed to NBC for Sunday Night Football. With wind chills in the teens, Robert Griffin had revived the Redskins from its deathbed, rallying his troops for just another battle, breathing confidence onto anything that came into his path. Even on what probably was his least effective game of his first season, RGIII protected the football, which was all Mike Shanahan needed him to do. If Tony Romo throws just one interception, Dallas would've won. Griffin to Romo after the game: "Hey Tony. I just wanted to say to you, don't listen to what anybody elseis saying about you. You're a great quarterback, man. And this gamedoesn't mean anything." Griffin knew that would make it sting even worse for Romo. Because there's no way Romo would've done the same had Dallas won.
What we know now: Read more here about my reaction the day after Washington D.C. had their first Redskins division title since 1999. The prodigy, on a gimpy leg and all, has his franchise two-four years ahead of schedule.
January 6th, 2013 -- Griffin tears his LCL
What to remember: Seattle was a much better football team than Washington, even with a fully healthy Griffin III. Whether you agreed or disagreed with Shanahan's decison (I agreed), its' over and done with. My biggest pet peeve about this decison is that most of the people ripping Shanahan for leaving RGIII in the game are the same ones who would pile on Shanny for pulling Griffin any earlier. The aftermath with the Dr. James Andrews situation was humongous black eye for Shanahan, because it all felt like a cover up.
What we know now: Griffin's quotes and tendencies about fearlessness are littered all throughout this chapter 1 essay. This situation was bound to play out during some point of his career. You know by now Griffin has a London Fletcher makeup in his character, willing his body through anything. Taming that inner fire must now be dually (and cooperatively) judged by Griffin himself, Mike Shanahan and the doctors. RGIII will strongly oppose the coddling about his health during the 2013 season, but that's life for a franchise dual-threat quarterback.
February 2nd, 2013 -- Rookie of the Year
What to remember: Alec Baldwin hosted the NFL Award's Show, roasting Andrew Luck for his neckbeard. He tossed a softball at RGIII about him starring in loads of commercials. Luck is such an easy target.
What we know now: "Sometimes it's not what you get for your team, it's what your willing to give for them," Griffin said as he closed his acceptance speech on stage in New Orleans.
Chapter 2: Coming in July from Richmond, VA.

I have two comments regarding the same Spring Valley Tribune.
I had opportunity to visit Spring Valley recently at the time of my SVHS class of 1960 reunion held during Ag Days. Per usual, it was great fun to visit with classmates as well as former neighbors and longtime friends.
I am always going to do this; then put it off.
Mary Jo Dathe wrote a story in her history column about the school buses of the '60s. That article brought back thoughts of dust and long rides.
One of the characteristics of my family, besides the 13 kids, the homeschooling, and the many odd things we do, is the fact that we've always had two dogs. And they're always big dogs. Very big dogs. They're not Great Danes, but they're definitely on the 100-pound end of the spectrum.
The article by Mary Jo Dathe with the subject of chickens brought back some memories, some rustic, some smelly, some back breaking and some happy.
It's undeniable that our rural towns are different than they were even one generation ago. There are a few less businesses, a few more shuttered houses. To passersby, it might appear that these places are dying, some already dead. Certainly, books like Joseph Amato's "Decline of Rural Minnesota" (1993) and Patrick Carr and Maria Kefalas' "Hollowing Out the Middle" (2010) tell the story of young people moving out, deaths outpacing births, and the decline of agriculture as a primary economic engine.
Enjoyed your column on the Kellogg family (Glimpses of Yesteryear April 29 edition). If you mentioned it, I missed it and I apologize for reading a non-Braille newspaper.
Residents who were incorrectly concerned that I do not support land buffers can rest easier tonight.
Kirby Johnson's recent letter to the editor (Spring Valley Tribune April 29 edition) hit the nail on the head as to why I strongly support repealing the estate tax – in order to protect the family farm.
Greg Rendahl recently expressed his disappointment with my opposition to Gov. Dayton's idea requiring 50-foot buffer zones along rivers and streams (Bluff Country Reader letter April 20 edition). He thinks I'm catering to the interests of a few "greedy" farmers.

I enjoy being part of this community, but there are many times when I hear complaints about the governing bodies of the community. When you get right down to it, the source of the complaint is ignorance.
State code does not allow local government to do very many things without it notifying the public, whether it be by code, public notice, or public hearings. It is up to the public whether or not they choose to partake of the information that is offered. An example is the public hearings regarding the future courthouse (that have been so poorly attended).
Recently Carbon County mailed out the Disclosure Notices to all property owners in the county as required by state code. This is to inform the tax payer what the value the property they own has. It is to show it has been assessed by the county assessor, and the proposed tax rates that it will be taxed. This information can then be accepted by the land owner, or appealed during the board of equalization.
While I won't go into detail, this process enables the tax payer to make sure that there is fairness in the VALUE that is assessed on the property. The board of equalization has nothing to do with the TAX RATE.
Some of you have seen values jump over the years. The reasons for this are many. The assessor is required to reevaluate every property in the county, every five years. Each of the five reappraisal areas are looked at by the assessor's office to determine if there have been changes to the property that would increase or decrease the value, and if the value placed on the property are also in line with sales that have occurred in the area. This tells them if it is line with what the "market" is doing. This process is supervised by a representative of the state tax commission to ensure that the assessor does not get out of line.
Once the process of valuation is complete, the values are given to the county auditor to set the tax rate. This is much more than the below formula, but you will get the idea.
(State Assessed Value + County Assessed Value) X Tax Rate = Entity Budget
State code allows the taxing entity to adjust the tax rate WITHOUT a public hearing to keep the entity at the same budget as the previous year. If their budget is increased or decrease this requires a public hearing, as noted on your disclosure notice. (See State Code Title 59 Chapter 2)
If the values of the properties go up, the tax rate goes down. If the values of the properties go down, the tax rate goes up to keep the budget balanced for the taxing entity.
The taxing entities in the county include Price City, Helper City, Wellington City, Sunnyside City, Scofield Town, East Carbon City, Carbon Water Conservancy District, Price River Water Improvement District, Utah State School Levy, Utah State Assessing and Collecting, Carbon School District, Local Assessing & Collecting, County Municipal Services and County General.
What determines which of the levies you are required to pay depends on the geographical area that your property lies in, These are also noted on your Disclosure notice.
Now comes to the answer to "Why did my taxes go up?" These are the scenarios.
â¢Your property was one of the five areas that got a detailed review by the assessor's office, and they found that the value should be higher.
â¢The State tax commission feels that the values in your area have gone up by a factored amount, due to sale information. The state then requires the assessor to factor the area by the amount the state tax commission decides.
â¢The value of state assessed properties have been decreasing in the area. This means that the tax rate must be raised on both locally assessed, and state assessed values to bring the budgeted value in balance. This is where much of the increases in the area have been coming from. State assessed properties, are just what it implies. These are on values that are assessed by the State of Utah, because the business that owns them owns properties in more than one county. Example include the railroad, coal companies, gas companies, telephone companies etc.
When their production is low or a location is closed, their value is dropped. The burden of their lost value, is then transferred to the entire population of the area through the tax rate imposed on the entire value.
As you saw in Sunnyside this year, the value of the Sunnyside Cogeneration plant lost a considerable amount of value. In order to keep the budget the same as allowed in state code, the tax rate was increase by all citizens to share the burden.
â¢You did something to improve the value of your property, such as a remodel, addition, garage, etc...
â¢This scenario is the rarest, but does occur. When the taxing entity needs an increase in the budget much like the Carbon School District just did, they do it through a process that is called "Truth in Taxation." Now seeing how there are approximately 14,000 properties in Carbon County, I would feel safe to say that most of these budget public hearings are very poorly attended.
All in all, I guess it is just easier to complain about a process than to understand it. It sure is a lot more fun!
Tax rate information for the last 20 years shows how the rate fluctuates, but this information doesn't tell the whole story. With further investigation it can be shown that the State Assessed Properties have gone down causing the local residents to bear the burden of their loss in value.
So I guess the reason for my taxes going up, would be to pay for loss in value for a big business that is in the area. The ironic thing is that if a large company is doing well in Carbon County, and in the rest of the state they are doing poorly, causing an overall loss, the state reduces their value which causes the local citizens to make up the loss. That would take place while in reality, they are making a profit in your county.
So why not give the assessing power to the governing body that the businesses assets reside in?
Disclosure: I work for Carbon County, but it is not my job nor responsibility to set tax rates, collect tax monies, value properties, nor record legal documents. I am not speaking on behalf of Carbon County or any other entity. I speak on my own. All information in this document was obtained through public information and can be obtained by anyone who so desires it. I pay taxes like everyone else.

SamFrom: WARWICK, NYAge: 55-64Customer Length: 1-3 Years
I recently opened an account that I am using for property management purposes on my rental properties in TN, I currently live full time in NY. I use several other banks who also have mobile deposit and have no problem depositing up to $2500 a day or a total of $5000.00 a month. I just went to use FTB's mobile deposit and find out it is limited to $250.00 per check and can take several days to have use of my funds. At my other banks there is a confirmation of deposit and access to partial funds either the same day or all funds by the next day. in this day & age of online banking and bill pay thru the Federal Reserve which is all electronic and virtually instantly, it is unacceptable to have this extremely poor level of service.I was going to open several more accounts for other properties I am purchasing plus trust accounts to hold securiety deposits for my tenents but will probably have to look elsewhere for my banking needs if this is any indication of future service.

This used to be a great feature with my college kids who are out of state - enabled them to deposit their paychecks by mobile deposit since they don't have a branch close by. Unfortuantely the policies have changed and it now can take 2-5 business days before the money post to their accounts where before it was posted the next day. Not sure there is any benefit to this feature now if the funds can't be available faster. My son depsoited a check on a Thursday before the 9pm deadline and it was not in his account the next day. Customer service told him about the change and it didn't show up in his account until the following Wednesday. He could have mailed me the check and I could have taken it to a branch quicker than using mobile deposit.

I've been using the mobile app in an iPhone since it first came out and make deposits several times a week. It works perfectly as long as the light is good and the surface is dark.
My question and grip is why I can I only view images from mobile deposits for a 30-day period -- and online they don't show either. Let me self-service my account rather than require me to take up your associates time by finding that information. The information is obviously there, just let me access.

I love this app for depositing personal checks but for whatever reason, this app struggles depositing my employers checks. And when I called either help support number in my email, all I got was an answering machine. Thanks for screwing me out of my paycheck for the holiday weekend.

After the last update almost a year ago, the app still force closes at the splash screen. Well known problem and no fix. Been with First Tennessee almost 20 years and am now thinking of changing banks, especially since they closed the branch that was closest to me. Now its a 40 mile drive. So mobile banking was great.....till now.....FIX IT!!!!!

Just tried mobile deposit and am very disappointed. Endorsed the check and took pictures of front & back of the check. Went through all the hoops only to get a message that the check could not be accepted because it was folded or had bent corners. WHAT? The check is in pristine condition, just came out of an envelope. Sad excuse for a service, FTB, you really missed the mark on this one.

YuriYFrom: GERMANTOWN, TNAge: 45-54Customer Length: Over 15 Years
When you deposit a check via mobile banking you can never be sure that teh check does not get rejected. Unfortunately, the bank does not tell you this right away, but you rathre find out about this the next day. That means that if you rely on this deposit for being able to pay your bills, then you bills will bounce and you will incur a large fee. I stopped using mobile banking ofr any checks above $500. It's crazy that FTN cannot figure out how to make this work!

LaurenFrom: MEMPHIS, TNAge: 19-24Customer Length: 1-3 Years
I signed up for an account with First Tennessee last week and specifically asked if I would have access to mobile deposits, as this was one of the main criteria I was looking for in a bank. I was told by the representative that I would have access to mobile deposits as a part of my account. She said that all I had to do was call their 1-800 number to be eligible. I called last week, and was told that normally you have to wait a year before you're eligible, but they were changing their policy, and I should have access by Monday. I called back today to check up on it, and the representative said that I would not be eligible until I had been a member for a year and direct deposited over $500 each month. I am getting extremely frustrated with the mixed information I am getting here, and will be finding another bank that is up front about their requirements.

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate reporter
Coach Patrick Clifford knew that when region play began, Carbon would face some of its toughest competition yet. So far it has proven to be true as the Dinos lost 3-1 to Juan Diego and then dropped a heartbreaker to North Sanpete to move to 0-3 in region eight action.
The Dinos struggled in the first half against Juan Diego on Wednesday afternoon. "We played sloppy in the first half and got ourselves in a hole we could not get out of," was Clifford's assessment of the game.
Juan Diego slipped in two goals in the first half of play while Carbon could not get anything to hit the net. Most of their shots on goal soared over the bar as the brisk breeze made them sail. Both teams began a bit of trash talk and the referee called the captains over and told them in no uncertain terms to "knock it off!"
The Dinos came out more focused in the second half. They played an even game with the Soaring Eagles and each team sent one in for a score. The difference in the game was the first half play of each team. Spencer Denison scored his first goal of the season.
The team hosted the North Sanpete Hawks in a grueling battle on Friday afternoon. In the first half of play neither team took control and the game was scoreless. Again Carbon went into the second half and showed they were a team to contend with. They controlled the play and took 24 shots on goal to 12 from the Hawks. They just didn't put the ball into the net.
With less than three minutes to play, a Dino defender over played the North Sanpete player, allowing him a one-on-one shot at the goal. Jake Malone did his best, but the ball squirted in and the Hawks had the win.
"I feel bad when our team plays as hard as they did and we still lose. I have said before this is one of the toughest regions in the state, any team in it can beat any other team. But for a goal here or there, we could be three and 0 instead of 0 and three. We have been right in every game we have played so far," noted Clifford.
The Dinos will play Delta on Wednesday at the Carbon High field at 3:30 pm. And then on to Juan Diego on Friday for another region game. They will finish region play with an away game on Wednesday, April 23, against North Sanpete.

PROVIDENCE – The Providence Friars are taking it to the Florida A&M Rattlers, 39-19, after 20 minutes at The Dunk. The most eye-popping stat is the 14 turnovers the Friars forced, resulting in 20 points.
Florida A&M, which was picked to finish last in the MEAC preseason poll, shot just 27 percent. For the Friars, Bryce Cotton continues to score at a high clip. The sophomore guard notched the team's first seven points on his way to ending the half with 13.
It's worth noting that Vincent Council spent some time on an exercise bike, no doubt the result of a nasty fall he took Monday night in Fairfield in which the point guard immediately grabbed his ankle.
The game is one of four PC will play as part of the South Padre Invitational. The Friars will play one more game at The Dunk – next Tuesday vs. Southern – before spending Thanksgiving weekend in South Padre.

What began as a San Diego Beer Week show of brewing solidarity has metamorphosized into a quarterly tradition that brings out not only fans of Stone beer, but members of Team Stone looking to check out inventive takes on the brewery's year-round beers. Every three months, we round up a dozen of our brewery staff and invite them to build casks incorporating tasty ingredients ranging from fruits and herbs to tea, specialty hops and different varieties of wood. Then, to stay true to the camaraderie theme that inspired the event in the first place, we hand them mallets (customized to include each brewer's name and the date of the event) and have them simultaneously tap their casks in the midst of a crowd of thirsty attendees. The next 12 Brewers 12 Casks 12 Mallets event will take place on August 22, 2013 at Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Escondido. The beers being offered up are…
- Stone 17th Anniversary Götterdämmerung IPA w/Lychee Fruit & Hersbrucker Hops by Callaway Ryan
- Stone IPA w/Cacao Nibs & Plums by Zach Goldstein
- Stone IPA w/Chervil, Savory, Thyme & Lavender by Laura Mirsch
- Stone IPA w/Tamarind, Lemongrass & Ginger by Josh Hagquist
- Stone Levitation Ale w/Peppercorn & Cilantro by Kihei Hutchinson
- Stone Pale Ale w/Lemon Verbena & Bergamot by Steve Via
- Stone Pale Ale w/Spanish Cedar & Spirals & Szechuan Peppercorns by Jeff Fanno
- Stone Ruination IPA w/El Dorado Hops, Cilantro & Pineapple by Sander Banta
- Stone Ruination IPA w/Kumquats & American Oak Chips by Ben Maushardt
- Stone Ruination IPA w/White Peaches & Chamomile by Anthony Tallman
- Stone Ruination IPA w/Moroccan Mint Green Tea, Cacao Black Tea & Toasted American Oak Chips by Justinian Caire
- Stone Smoked Porter w/Shaved Coconut & Toasted Almonds by Joaquin Bowman
We added a new riff to this tradition during its spring rendition, holding a lottery among all members of Team Stone who were interested in participating but had jobs outside the brewery component of our business. The winner that time around was one of our graphic artists, who busted out a cask of Stone Smoked Porter w/Toasted Hazelnuts. This time around, we invited two non-brewers to the festivities, our EH&S Manager and an Assistant Supervisor from Stone Company Store – Escondido. And they're no slouches. Their casks are every bit as ambitious and slobber-provoking as their fermentation specialist comrades. Take a moment to meet this dastardly dozen before coming out to sample their creations.

Submission Educators will come to regret relying on video games in the classroom->
stern writes: Per the New York Times, there's a role for play in the classroom, and there's a role for computers in the classroom, but there is little if any evidence that computer games help teach. Rather, they hurt attention spans and set expectations that may discourage students from learning things that, however important, can't be turned into a game.
