Outdoors notebook: Crystal Lake site of Family Outdoor Expo
City Care will host a Family Outdoor Expo Sept. 28 at Crystal Lake in Oklahoma City from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m.
Since the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation canceled its annual Wildlife Expo at the Lazy E Arena and Ranch this year, City Care decided to host a mini-version of the event at the 60-acre lake it manages near SW 15 and MacArthur.
Events include fishing for kids, archery, bow making, flint knapping, kayaking and more. Because Crystal Lake can't accommodate the crowd the Wildlife Expo draws, attendance will be limited by a free ticket giveaway.
Tickets to the Family Outdoor Expo will be given away to the public at the following locations: Bass Pro Shops in Oklahoma City, all Charleston's metro restaurant locations, Arrowhead Archery Shop in Del City, the OKC Kayak Paddlesport Superstore and the H&H Shootings Sports Complex.
City Care is a nonprofit that was founded in 1996 to provide assistance to the homeless and low-income families. The City Kids Outdoors Program uses Crystal Lake to foster an appreciation of the outdoors among the children of City Care's Whiz Kids program, which offers tutoring to inner city children.
For more information on the Family Outdoor Expo, call Greg Webb at 609-2400.
European pheasant hunt to benefit youth hunting program
The Oklahoma City Sportsman's Country Club is sponsoring a European pheasant shoot on Saturday at Prescribed Hunts near Marlow. The proceeds will benefit the Oklahoma Youth Hunting and Shooting Program, which provides hunting trips for children from non-hunting families.
The cost of the European pheasant shoot is $300 per hunter, which includes 12 birds, a warm up shoot and lunch. To reserve a spot, contact Spenser Kern of Prescribed Hunts at (580) 475-2629 or visit www.prescribedhunts.com.
Goose, teal hunting seasons open
Saturday marked the opening of Oklahoma's September teal season and resident Canada goose season statewide.
This year, hunters can take six teal per day — up from four in previous years. The special resident Canada goose daily limit remains at eight.
Blue-winged and green-winged teal are the first ducks to travel through Oklahoma as they migrate southward on their traditional journey to wintering grounds in Mexico and Central and South America. They migrate quickly and don't stay in Oklahoma a long time.
The best teal strategy usually involves scouting areas and being ready to hunt them as soon as a cold front arrives or immediately after, said Josh Richardson, migratory game bird biologist for the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation.
"The stronger the front, the more birds are likely to be moving through," Richardson said.
Richardson notes that there is significantly more water available to waterfowl in Oklahoma this year than last year when, despite near record numbers of waterfowl, hunters often had challenges getting to areas with enough water for a successful hunt.
Resident Canada geese are birds that live in Oklahoma year-round, providing a chance to hunt before migrant birds from the north begin arriving in large numbers.
"Geese follow a pretty regular pattern this time of year, so finding fields that they feed in that are open to hunting should provide good action," Richardson said. "Most often these birds spend their days within city limits, so gaining access to a roosting pond to hunt them as they return to loaf through the day is pretty difficult, but if you are fortunate to have such a location, that should provide some good shooting as well."
The teal season runs through Sept. 29. The resident Canada goose season runs through Sept. 23.
The regular duck seasons in Oklahoma kick off Oct. 1 in the Panhandle counties, Oct. 26 in Zone 1 (includes most of northwest Oklahoma excluding the Panhandle) and Nov. 2 in Zone 2 (everywhere else). The regular season for Canada geese will open Nov. 2.
DU Banquet Saturday in MWC
The Tri-City Ducks Unlimited banquet and fundraiser will be Saturday in the Midwest City Community Center.
Doors open at 5:30 p.m. with dinner served at 7 p.m.
There will be raffles and live and silent auctions for merchandise, including all types of guns.
Tickets are $35 for singles and $50 per couple. Cost for active military personnel is $15. Kids receive free admission with a paid adult.
Deadline approaching for big buck contest
Sept. 30 is the deadline to enter the Oklahoma Wildlife Management Association's big buck contest for the upcoming deer seasons.
To be eligible, deer must be legally harvested in Oklahoma between Oct. 1 (the opening of archery season) and Jan. 15 (end of archery season).
The contest will have three categories: gun (rifle, pistol, muzzleloader) from a low-fenced or unfenced area; archery (recurve, longbow, compound, crossbow) from a low-fenced or unfenced area; and gun or archery from a high-fenced area (defined as a fence at least 7 feet high enclosing, or constructed with the intent to enclose, the area).
The winner of each category will receive $500 and a free shoulder mount of the winning antlers. All contestants will be eligible for a prize drawing valued at $250.
Entry fee is $25. For more information and contest rules, visit www.okbigbuckcontest.com.

Primary teaching - honestly what is it like?

Hi all,
I have DS, who is a year old. When I had him, the idea was that I would go back to my corporate role in 6 months. DH and I visited every daycare in the area and couldn't agree on one and finally figured out the problem was not the specific daycares, but both of us not wanting him in daycare at all. Plus we realised that both parents being out of the home for 12 hrs a day just wasn't going to work for us - so I packed in my job, and am a sahm.
Now that I am thinking about it, I don't think my previous life is ever going to mesh well with being a mummy so I am going to have to retrain and do something more appropriate. I have done a bit of undergrad study before for fun and enjoyed it so am now thinking about going down that path again. At first I was thinking Accounting and doing bookkeeping from home or for a local business, and whilst this seems to be a sensible option, I would find it painful and I wouldn't love it.
Then I thought about teaching. I used to teach kids martial arts and was good at it. I am patient, am great with little kids, and want to do something that makes a difference in the world - and I feel this fits the bill. It's also a skill that is transportable. Plus, it fits in perfectly with having a child. So, enough of my long winded post. Do you enjoy being a primary teacher?

I love teaching and having my own class.
I do not love casual teaching.
Some people are lucky and get a job straight away, but there is also the very real possibility that you could end up going a few weeks with no work, and if you are just casual, ALL holiday periods are unpaid.

3 years without a job before ANZAC day, and only 2-3 casual days before then.
The teaching is fine. The getting a job is the crap bit.
Posted 25 December 2012 - 04:30 PM
Teaching is a wonderful career for all the reasons you mentioned.
It can also be exhausting, especially in the junior grades when you are on your feet nearly all day, constantly on the go...multitasking galore. There is physical preparation of resources and paperwork preparation at home, assessments, portfolios, reports, committee meetings, staff meetings, professional development research, arranging incursion, excursions, special event days, displays...just some of the aspects of working year. In other words it is not a 9am - 3pm job and whilst the holidays are generous some of those days are used to set up the room and prepare lots of resources for the term.
I have two young school age boys who also go to the same school I work at - it's a bonus in some ways (no need for outside care arrangements) and not in others. I often have to take them early to school with me so I can set up for the day and then they are there after school as I try to clean up.
When we get home they need prompting with their homework, I listen to their home reading, cook dinner and prompt the whole bedtime routine.
Some days I thrive on the business of it all and sometimes I fall asleep on the couch my 8pm.
The above views/ways are just my own and of course not common to all teachers.
Best of luck with any career choice you make.

Next year will be my 5th year as a teacher. You want honesty so here it is: (tired so using dot points)
* hated the 4 years of study, expensive (even with hecs) and time consuming
*first year out I hated it, long long hours and very stressful
*2nd year out a bit better, but still wasn't sure I was going to stick it out
*3rd year could only get small contracts and relief work, okay, but not good for the budget
*4th year: totally in love with teaching! But in saying that my kids are older and I devoted a lot of time and energy to my class.
I am still on contract and I probably won't get a permanent job for a few years yet as they are very rare. I mostly work 9 hour days, my students are on my mind a lot, the weekends involve work but also preparing for the working week, like ironing etc. As I am too tired at night to do much.
I absolutely love my job/vocation and have already started planning what I will teach next year, researching and working out my classroom layout. Like most teachers, I do spend a few thousand of my own money each year as well.
You do not teach for the money!

Does anyone know if it's also hard to secure a secondary teaching role in NSW?
Posted 25 December 2012 - 06:01 PM
I forgot to mention that I am one of the very lucky ones who is a permanent teacher. I am very grateful for it each year. As so many others commented it's heart breaking to watch so many casual teachers unsure where or if they will have a job year to year. These are good - great teaches who put in way above and beyond effort to add to their resume in hope of standing out for selection. I can only imagine the stress of them and their family due to the uncertainness of work year to year. I've never, ever noticed there being a hint of a 'teacher shortage' in primary schools about me - I think the fine print would read 'teacher shortage of high school maths teacher in extremely remote community.'

Depends what you are teaching. Maths and Science yes. English and history in Western Sydney. Most everything else is hard.
OP , as someone who went from corporate to teaching, the work hours are a lot more manageable as a teacher. Sure it's not 9-3, but less then corporate that's for sure
Posted 25 December 2012 - 06:16 PM
My friend is a high school teacher and has been a on contracts at the same school, fulltime for 4+ years. Only now has he finally be offered a permanent role. It's really been very hard on his family being financially unstable all those years. He loves teaching the teens, hates the politics of how the school is run and the instability of contract roles.

Thank you for your replies! A lot to think about indeed! My sister teaches secondary school, so I have been probing her for her opinion as well. She agrees with a lot has been said here and also added that the staff room politics can be crappy, but she wouldn't do anything else. She also feels it could be a good personality fit. Urgh..... I have a lot of thinking to do....... But I am actually a bit excited about it.
But thanks again all.

Honestly, I teach Prep and at the school I am currently at there is no way I could continue my career if I had a family Its far too exhausting and far too much work. I get to school at about 7.30-8am and don't leave until around 6pm, I also do schoolwork almost every evening when I get home and on the weekend. I love the job, it's very rewarding and I love the children I work with and seeing them grow - but at my current school it is very demanding and I don't think I could continue if I had young children. I only speak on behalf of my own experience, though!

I used to be a teacher and got permanency in nsw straight out of uni there is definitely LOTS of out of hours work. Also I worked in schools where children came from disadvantaged backgrounds and I often struggled with wanting to do more for the kids and feeling bad that I couldnt. I hated that society seems not to value teachers as I see teaching as so important. Also be prepared to be yelled at, sworn at and complained about- from teachers and students. That isnt just my experience, surveys by teachers federation indicates if happens much more than you think. Just some examples one six year old was kicking other six year olds and calling them mother f#@! Ers. I had him sit separately for a short time. His dad went off that I was picking on him. Many parents think that because they have 1 or 2 kids they could effectively teach a whole class and are often quick to let you know. Politics in schools can be crazy as you mentioned. Also while I found teaching to be challenging it wasnt intellectually stimulating. In primany school be aware you have to teach music as well as sport, art, history etc etc.

I went from corporate to teaching (secondary) and have found the hours much longer. Maybe not in terms of "office" hours, but the prep and marking done outside of school takes up a lot of time. And the difference is that you are always thinking about school in the back of your mind. It's not a job you can just leave at the office and forget about it.
And not to nitpick, but it's less thAn! Sorry, one of my pet peeves as an English teacher!

Larry K. McMullen, Swine Field Specialist, Southeast Area
Problem Statement:
As a requirement for exhibiting food animal projects at county and state fairs, all 4-H and FFA youth must be FSQA (Food Safety and Quality Assurance) certified. Therefore, any 4-H/FFA youth exhibiting beef, dairy cattle, bucket bottle calves, goats, sheep, swine, rabbits, and poultry are required to attend a training session or test out if they are to exhibit food animals. Junior members are required to attend each year for three years. Intermediates and senior members have an option to test out. Because of this mandatory requirement, the need for county certification meetings exists to make sure youth are properly trained and certified.
Programmatic Response:
A power point presentation was prepared and activities were planned for the 2007 FSQA training sessions. The training program consisted of background discussion on food safety, and the importance of the seven good production practices. A detailed discussion and hands on activities were conducted with good production practices 5, 6, and 7 Adequate and Safe Feed, Bio-security and Animal Welfare, and Ethics. A black light demonstration was used to illustrate how disease pathogens spread and the need for changing shoes and disinfecting equipment when returning from the fair. Also the black light was used to explain why animals returning from the fair back to the home farm need to be isolated from contemporary animals. A heavy emphasis was placed on the animal welfare/animal rights activists movement and how youth need to be cognizance of these groups while at the county or state fair. Information about Iowa State University, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and the Animal Science department was also presented for recruitment purposes. Certification programs were planned for Cedar, Scott, Johnson, Linn, Jackson, Jones, and Clinton counties.
Eighteen meetings in 7 counties were conducted. A total of 751 youth were certified and 157 adults also attended. Numerous verbal comments from parents were expressed on the positive content in the program. One parent even requested the program file. One county director also used the PPT program in working with county fair superintendents. The PPT program was available on the state 4-H web site for downloading and use in other counties. The FSQA programs also provided eight Iowa State University recruitment contacts. As a result of these training programs for FSQA certification 751 4-H/FFA members were now eligible to exhibit their livestock project at the local county fair as well as the Iowa State Fair. Through the instruction in the FSQA training, 4-H/FFA members will be providing the consumer with a safe and nutritious food product from their respective livestock project.

Apple on pace to sell 4.8M Macs in holiday quarter, down 7% year over yearDomestic sales figures from the first month of Apple's holiday quarter have signaled the company is on track to sell 4.8 million Macs in the three-month period, representing a decrease from last year.
U.S. Mac sales in October were down 16 percent year over year, according to the latest data from NPD Group. But Gene Munster of Piper Jaffray noted that Mac sales have exceeded NPD figures by an average of 12 percentage points in the last three quarters, which suggests, overall Mac sales were down just 4 percent year over year.
Munster's estimates call for Mac sales to be down 7 percent year over year in the December quarter, which would be 4.8 million total units.
The NPD figures suggest Mac sales were down 40 percent when compared to September. That's a normal seasonal trend as back-to-school sales end, Munster said.
"The focus of the December quarter will likely be on iPhone 5 sales, and we note our supply checks indicate that iPhone 5 supply has improved significantly in the last three weeks," he said.
This quarter will include sales of the new 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display, as well as new Mac minis with Ivy Bridge processors, and a redesigned iMac that is scheduled to arrive later this month. But Apple's Mac sales are dominated by portable machines, and the bulk of the company's MacBook lineup was refreshed earlier this year, while the latest updates feature more desktop machines.
A year ago, Apple set a new record by selling 5.2 million Macs in the December 2011 quarter. That represented a 26 percent increase from the same period in 2010.
Last year, Munster's interpretation of NPD's October sales data proved accurate in projecting Mac sales for the quarter. Munster said the sales figures showed Apple on pace to sell between 5.1 million and 5.3 million Macs in the quarter, and actual holiday Mac sales fell squarely in the middle of that range.

Let''s get real: There are a lot of audio interfaces, and if you can''t find one that precisely fits your needs, you probably aren''t looking hard enough. So where does the Blackbird fit in?
No one interface has it all. Some might have exceptionally low noise but a bit more THD than others, while some have superior crosstalk but maybe slightly more intermodulation distortion. These differences tend to be quantitative, not qualitative, and audible differences are subtle at most.
Blackbird''s main asset is its eight Onyx preamps. These preamps have a great rep, but when you put numbers on them, low noise and extremely low intermodulation distortion stand out. Subjectively, these are not "character" preamps, but follow the "straight wire with gain" philosophy. Gain goes up to +60dB, and all inputs are true Neutrik combo jacks that accommodate XLR or 1/4-inch balanced/unbalanced inputs.
MORE THAN MICSYou won''t find bells and whistles like onboard reverb or processing. Instead, Mackie has clearly gone for "industrial strength" features like word clock I/O, ADAT optical I/O (eight channels that support the same sample rates as the analog inputs—44.1/48/8.2/96kHz—with dual
SMUX ports for the higher sample rates), three stereo outs (Main, Mon, and Alt), dual FireWire ports, dual headphone outs, low latency (64 samples with ASIO/64-bit Windows 7), and of course, direct monitoring. Curiously, the optical ports can''t be used for
S/PDIF, and there are no coaxial S/PDIF jacks.
The first two preamps are "special" inputs. They''re front-panel and switchable among mic, line, and hi-Z for guitar; they also have a low-cut filter (–18dB/octave with a cutoff of 75Hz) and rear-panel TRS insert jacks. The remaining six inputs are rear-panel combo jacks with no additional features.
Phantom power is switchable in two groups: inputs 1+2, or 3–8. This is the one area where there''s an obvious compromise, as you can''t initiate phantom on individual channels, or even each channel pair.
As to construction, the 1U chassis is all-metal, and it''s built like a tank. If you dropped it, I think the main damage would be cosmetic (e.g., a scratch or dent). Also, the software matrix mixer GUI (which you need to download from the Mackie site) is full-featured—it allows linking, provides flexible direct monitoring with eight individual mixes, indicates peaks and levels, and much more. It also looks like a Mackie mixer, which is a cute touch.
Finally, if you need expansion, the company claims it''s possible to cascade four units on both Mac and Windows platforms—so for less than $1K street price, you can have 16 Onyx pres for complex acoustic sessions.
CONCLUSIONS I''ve been impressed with Mackie''s Onyx interfaces since the Onyx 400F hit the world several years ago; the mic preamps aren''t just hype. If you''re looking for "color" you''re in the wrong place, but if transparency and headroom are what matters, you''ll be very pleased with the Onyx design. Add in the other pro-oriented features, and the result is a solid, utilitarian, no-nonsense interface that just sits there and does its job—unobtrusively and professionally.

Rep. Justin AmashJustin AmashLibertarian looks for anti-Trump bump The Hill's 12:30 Report Ten third-party candidate names at top of Never Trump's list MORE (R-Mich.) has a commanding lead in his primary, according to a poll conducted by the Club for Growth, which is backing the congressman.
Partisan polls, especially ones conducted just on one day, should always be viewed with some skepticism. But a 48-point lead is a huge gap for Ellis to overcome between now and the Aug. 5 primary.
The Club endorsed the libertarian-minded congressman shortly after Ellis entered the race and has been running ads attacking Ellis in the district. The poll shows they've had an impact: Ellis's favorable rating is just 8 percent, and his unfavorable rating sits at 21 percent.
The Chamber of Commerce indicated when Ellis launched his campaign that it would help target Amash. But so far, the congressman has had more outside support in the race and has much more cash in the bank, with $730,000 to Ellis's $340,000.
The live-caller poll of 300 likely Republican primary voters with a history of voting in GOP primaries was conducted by Basswood Research on Feb. 6. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 5.6 percent.

High school football: Top-ranked Guthrie comes through in the clutch against Carl Albert
GUTHRIE — When Guthrie needed a big play from a wide receiver at the end of the game, the Bluejays called on their starting defensive end.
With 13 seconds remaining and Guthrie trailing by three points to Carl Albert, Guthrie inserted 6-foot-2 sophomore L'Liott Curry at wide receiver for the fade route. It is same play the Bluejays had used with Curry earlier in the season for a touchdown against Ponca City.
"He is more of an asset on defense, but when we need something, we can go to him anytime, Guthrie quarterback Bryan Dutton said.
Curry made a diving catch in the back corner of the end zone with eight seconds remaining to rally No. 1-ranked Guthrie past Carl Albert, 21-17, and keep the Bluejays unbeaten.
When the ball left Dutton's hand, it appeared he had overthrown Curry, who has lined up for only three offensive plays all season.
"He kind of did," Curry said of the 12-yard game-winner. "But I am long enough to get that ball."
Curry's magnificent grab completed a six play, 68-yard game winning touchdown drive in just 1:25.
Dutton, who had a rough first half by fumbling and throwing an interception that both were returned for Carl Albert touchdowns, atoned for those turnovers by going 4 of 6 on the game-winning drive.
The Bluejays' senior signal caller completed two passes to Cody Reihs for 17 and 13 yards, then hit Donovan Jordan on a 26-yard pass that set up the Bluejays on the Titans' 12 with just 24 seconds remaining.
With no timeouts left, Dutton tossed an incompletion on a fade route before Guthrie (6-0 overall, 3-0 District 5A-2) called on Curry to try the same play on the other side.
"Coach told me I couldn't take a sack," Dutton said. "I just threw it up the best I could, and he (Curry) went up and made a heck of a play. A hundred percent of that goes to him."
Titans' quarterback Steven Thompson, who rushed for 62 yards, said Carl Albert (1-5, 0-3) is beginning to feel snakebit.
"It feels horrible getting it taken from you like that," a dejected Thompson said after the game."
Guthrie dominated the game statistically, but it appeared four turnovers — two fumbles and two interceptions — might doom the Bluejays.
Carl Albert scored two defensive touchdowns in less than a minute apart in the second quarter on a 33-yard fumble return by defensive end Chantz Woodberry and a 46-yard interception return by safety Caleb Toney.
The Bluejays, though, were tied 14-14 at halftime with the Titans as Dutton connected on two first half scoring strikes with Jordan.
Carl Albert only ran three plays in the third quarter but took a 17-14 lead on Blake Walker's 28-yard field goal with 6:10 remaining in the game.
Dutton, who had only thrown one interception all season entering the game, said he needed to make up for his poor first half on the final drive.
"If it would have ended and we had not scored, it would have looked so bad on my part," he said. "This would have been a horrible loss, but we pulled through."

2007 GMC Yukon XL 1500 (2 Reviews)
2007 Yukon XL - Interior, second row seats when folded down, blocks rear cargo space and leaves a drop in the floor. Earlier models such as the 99 & 02 all seats folded down to open up the entire cargo space with a flat floor. ABS brakes pulse and is noticeable while slowing down - 99 & 02 did not do this with the ABS brakes. Had to replace drive train less than 100K miles and does not have the same power or torque with the towing package. 99 & 02 were great. Running lights burn out quickly. Had recall but wasn't published , had to replace some sort of oil pan - oil was leaking internally and not returning to oil pan or something like that. Engine runs higher RPM when towing and not shifting properly. Exhaust OK I guess no troubles yet. Heating & Air OK no troubles yet Suspension & Steering OK I would suggest before you buy a used 2007 or newer GMC Yukon XL you go to Edwards website and check out the comments - lots of unhappy campers with Yukon XL problems.
Extremely impressed with this vehicle. I have owned a 96' 2001' models prior and this one SMOKES THEM ALL! The power is very very impressive and the 4x4 is equally impressive driving through snow and rain. My wife loves the auto start which even remembers on its own to engage heated seats and heat when starting with remote start. The nav and back up camera are very much appreciated options along with entertainment system for our little ones. BUY ONE....YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!! PS; I traded in my Mercedez G500 for this Yukon and have never felt bad for doing it. LOVE THIS YUKON....

Movie review: 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2'
"The Amazing Spider-Man 2" casts a very wide web — looping in three crackling arch-villains and some minor evil-doers, a sweetly tortured love story involving broody Peter Parker/Spidey and brainy-cute Gwen Stacy, a dizzying CGI arsenal of swinging acrobatic effects and physics-defying fights and a swooping, eye-dazzling Cook's tour of Manhattan landmarks.
It's all by way of cobbling together a new chapter of the Marvel Comics superhero saga that's stuffed to the gills and dangerously close to being overcooked as it attempts to be all things to all movie fans. In the hands of the opportunely named returning director Marc Webb, the movie maintains a delicate balance. As he did in 2012's first film, Webb manages this so-called rebooting of the franchise by juggling some tried-and-true foundation elements and origin details with a few new wrinkles in an effort to satisfy super-picky comic-book fanatics and to court the more casual crowd of summer popcorn munchers.
For the most part, Webb succeeds, although at a cost of making a film that feels overlong, overplotted and narratively mechanical.
The emotional linchpin of the story is Peter Parker (30-year-old Andrew Garfield) juggling his upcoming high school graduation and superhero duties as Spider-Man with his burning ardor for perky Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone, the very definition of perk) and keeping in mind his oath to her dying police-chief father to shield her from danger by breaking off their relationship.
This time out, Garfield seems to have settled easily into the dual role, and he swaggers and swings through the big action scenes with athletic aplomb, while still projecting a funny, sexy, awkward boyishness that makes Parker so appealing. Matching him quip for quip and sparking up some surefire romantic energy — perhaps fueled by the actors' widely publicized off-screen romance — is cupcake-cute Stone, whose essential, earthy allure makes Gwen's eventual fate (comic-book fans will know what we mean) all the more distressing.
And plodding through this romantic storyline are three iconic Marvel villains (well, maybe two and a half). Jamie Foxx shows up as the geeky Oscorp engineer Max Dillon, a needy invisible man who initially idolizes Spider-Man and then turns villain as he's transformed into the pulsating, neon-blue Electro by an industrial accident involving electric eels. And the silky sinister Dane DeHaan is appropriately creepy as Parker's preppy childhood friend and Oscorp scion Harry Osborn, whose dire secret illness leads him to eventually follow his late father's fated path to become the Green Goblin.
Late in the action, an amusing Paul Giamatti lumbers in like a stray from the upcoming "Godzilla," decked out in a mechanical dinosaur suit. He's a Russian gangster nicknamed The Rhino, and his brief appearance in this already villain-heavy saga seems aimed entirely at setting the table for "The Amazing Spider-Man 3." With that film and two more Marvel sagas (involving Venom and The Sinister Six) on the drawing boards, this unwieldy yet entertaining contraption could just prove a prelude to better things.
— Dennis King, for The Oklahoman
PG-13 2:22 2 1/2 stars
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan. (Sequences of sci-fi action/violence)
