The day that those associated with the Princeton Day School boys' basketball team had hoped would never come is finally upon them.
Come Monday afternoon at 5:15 p.m. when the Panthers host rival Pennington, the post-Davon Reed Era will finally commence.
Reed, now seeing significant action as a true freshman at the University of Miami, graduated with the third most points in county history (2,102) and is just one of three players in county history to surpass the 2,000-point mark.
"It's here," Princeton Day School co-head coach Paris McLean said with a laugh. "That's something that was the elephant in the room. Our guys knew it was going to happen. I firmly believe that our kids —the young men in our program — are ready for their opportunity.
"They're ready to step up, they're ready for their leadership role and their ready to prove that, yeah, Davon was an outstanding player, one of the best in county history, but our program was not just one player. I know Davon would echo those same sentiments and I know our team is ready to prove that to people."
While there will be plenty of teams who dismiss the Panthers now that Reed (and fellow seniors B.J. Dudeck and Tavante Brittingham) have moved on. But after being the hunted for the last two or three years, McLean doesn't mind being the hunters this time around. Especially when he has nine seniors he can rely upon.
"It's a senior-laden team, it's guys with experience," McLean said. "We graduated two or three starters, but we had a lot of younger guys, the juniors who are now seniors, play great varsity minutes in big games. We've been to back-to-back state title games, the PrimeTime ESCIT and the Big Apple Classic, so these guys are battle tested. They're ready for their moment and they deserve it."
The 2012-13 season proved to be one of the most memorable years in county history from a preps' perspective. Mercer County's five prep schools combined for an 87-48 (.644) record with every team finishing at least six games above .500.
Pennington captured the NJISAA Prep B title in a thriller over Princeton Day School and Hun took home top honors at the Mid-Atlantic Prep League tournament.
"I think it was a really good year for the preps," said Hun head coach Jonathan Stone, who captured his 200th victory last season.
"I'd like to think we're competing not only well with each other but outside of our own ranks as well. That's always a good thing for all of us when we can do that."
Hun, which has finished with a .500-or-better record in 11 of Stone's 13 years at the helm, will be right in the mix yet again.
One intriguing part of the Raiders' success in recent years has been the influx of international players that have made their way to Princeton.
Hun had five players from outside of the United States border last season and it will be the sixth straight season the Raiders have had at least one player who calls a country other than the United States their native land. Four players on this year's roster — Remi Janicot (Belgium), Xin "David" Li and Su Cheng (China) and Josh McGilvray (Scotland) — bring the Raiders international flare.
"They've been really good kids," Stone said. "The only downside is maybe they're not here as much as the kids who live close by in terms of the offseason. But for the most part they've gelled easily with our guys. We have the international population with the school, so that certainly helps the process of ingratiating those guys."
Last season: 20-6 overall.
Head coach: Jonathan Stone (14th season).
Assistant coaches: Justin Feil, Dale Florio, David Smith.
Roster: Akash Mukkavilli (5-8, Jr., G), Eric Williams (6-1, Jr., G), Jason Geter (6-1, Sr., G), Michael Bourke (6-2, Sr., G), Kyle Borden (6-3, Jr., F), Su Cheng (6-3, So., G), Daniel Osley (6-3, Jr., G), Tucker Stevenson (5-11, Jr., G), Taylor Heilman (6-4, Sr., F), Xin Li (6-5, Sr., C/F), Joshua McGilvray (6-8, Sr., C), Remi Janicot (6-7, Sr., F), Jehizkiah Johnson (6-5, So., C/F).
Fast facts: Coming off of its first 20-win season since 2006-07, the expectations remain high at Hun. The Raiders will once again boast a massive low-post present in McGilvray, Janicot and Li. Hun graduated its leading scorer in Fergus Duke (11.8 ppg., 49 3-pointers), but guards Bourke (5.9 ppg.) and Geter (2.4 ppg.) should see a spike in offensive production. Olsey, a post-graduate from Hollywood, Fla., should contribute right from the start. The Raiders play six of their final seven games at home, including meetings with Mercer County prep rivals Lawrenceville, Princeton Day School and Peddie.
Last season: 18-6 overall.
Head coach: Ron Kane (23rd season).
Assistant coaches: Chris Hyson, Paul Brown, Pete Carill.
Roster: Luke Apuzzi (5-10, So., G), Charlie Card-Childers (6-8, Sr., F), Sean Cuskley (6-2, Jr., G), Brandon Federici (6-4, Sr., G), Will Jacob (5-10, So., G), Mike Klotz (6-3, Sr., G), Grant Lozaya (6-3, Sr., G), Grant Newsome (6-3, Jr., G), Sebastien Pierre-Louis (6-4, Jr., G), Sunny Pipalni (6-8, So., F), David Plumlee (6-3, Sr., G), Mitch Shiotani (6-1, Sr., G), Francis Yu (6-3, Sr., F).
Fast facts: Kane, the second-longest tenured boys' coach in the area, likes what he's seen from his team thus far. The veteran coach did concede that his team's a work in progress but a great work ethic, chemistry and continuity on the offense end should pay positive dividends. The big question will be replacing the offense production provided by Sam Borst-Smith, Lewis Hayes, Matt Johnson, Roy Brooks and injured Randall West (49.8 ppg. combined), but Klotz, Card-Childers and Federici, a former standout at Colts Neck, are all more than capable to pick up that slack.
Last season: 15-9 overall.
Head coach: Joe Rulewich (8th season).
Assistant coach: Matthew Roach.
Roster: Everson Davis (6-2, Jr., G), Isaiah Seetram (5-8, Jr., G), George Langberg (6-3, Sr., G), Lucas Niglio (6-1, Sr., G), Nate Hickman (6-3, Sr., G), Alex Brown (5-9, Sr. G), Marlik Toure (6-0, Jr., G), Sohan Kumar (6-0, Sr., G), Jason Magid (5-8, Fr., G), Bryan Rivers (6-0, Sr., G), Carson Vey (6-3, Jr., F), Asher Baron (6-5, Sr., F), Dylan Lloyd (6-4, Jr., G), Max Grutschus (6-6, Jr., F), Austin Shelton (6-5, Sr., F).
Fast facts: The Falcons lost 80 percent of its scoring from last season in graduating DeAndre Noble-Haywood, Wes Dickinson and Jonah Brooks but should help fill that void by welcoming to the fold Rivers, one of the most prolific scorers in Colonial Valley Conference history, for a post-graduate year. Rivers graduated as the leading scorer in West Winsdor-Plainsboro South history with 1,458 points, which was sixth most in CVC history and 20 most in county history. It might take a bit of a feeling out process for the Falcons' big men at the varsity level, but Vey, Baron, Llyod, Grutschus and Shelton could combine for a formidable front court.
Current record: 2-0.
Last season: 15-9 overall.
Head coach: Bernie Gurick (25th season).
Assistant coaches: Carl Corino.
Roster: Paul McWhirter (5-10, Sr., G), Kaison Randolph (6-2, Sr., F), Tyler Jones (5-11, So., G), Matt Simkus (6-4, Sr., C), Derek Hullings (6-0, Sr., G), Bryce Sistrunk-Lewis (5-8, Sr., G), Elijah Wright (6-2, Jr., G), Isiah Taylor (5-10, Jr., F), Marcellus Morris (6-2, Jr., F), Andrew Gurick (6-6, Jr., C), Kevin Maley (6-4, So., F), D.J. Rice (5-11, Fr., G).
Fast facts: The defending NJISAA Prep 'B' champions lost one of the area's top young players in Myles Stephens, who transferred to St. Andrew's (Del.), so there were some who had concerns about the ability to have that scoring void filled. But those concerns were quickly stomped out Tuesday when Randolph — already a 1,000-point scorer — dropped in 23 and was complemented nicely with Wright and Jones chipping in with 19 and 17, respectively. Size could be an issue for the Red Raiders, but they'll try to compensate for that with one of the most athletic starting lineups in the county.
Last ceason: 19-8 overall.
Co-head coaches: Paris McLean (7th season), Tim Williams (2nd season).
Assistant coaches: Anthony McKinley, Monroe Blakes, Brian Dudeck, Darius Young.
Roster: Chase Lewis (5-10, Fr., G), Josiah Meekins (5-9, Jr., G), James "J.P." Radvany (6-4, Jr., F), Zack Banks (5-8, Sr., G), Deante Cole (5-10, Sr., G), Langston Glaude (6-1, Sr., G), Brandon Glover (5-9, Sr., G), Jake Hall (5-10, Sr., G), Dan Lee (6-3, Sr., G), Ben Levine (6-4, Sr., F), Chris Okorodudu (6-5, Sr., F), Crawford "Ford" Schneider (6-3, Sr., F).
Fast facts: The Panthers are coming off of one of the greatest stretches in school history having won 51 games over the last four seasons. A large part of that success, obviously, had to do with having one of the best players in county history in Davon Reed, now at the University of Miami. But those who think that PDS will not be competitive will likely be sorely mistaken. The Panthers boast a roster with nine seniors with four of those players – Cole, Glaude, Okorodudu and Schneider – all logging significant, battled-tested minutes last year. Add the athletic Radvany and one of the top young talents in the area in the mix in Lewis, and the Panthers have a chance at being one of the biggest under-the-radar teams in the county.

There are countless ways to measure the consumerist absurdity that makes up the pulsing heart of the Super Bowl (what, you thought it was football?). There's the millions of dollars spent on the TV ads, of course — and those, any culture critic is quick to quip, are the real reason to watch. There's the spectacle of half-time show, the organizers of which are engaged in a Sisyphean task of making this year's more bombastic than the last. And if you zoom out a bit from the actual event, there's the stocking up of foodstuffs, party supplies, and yes, brand-new HD TVs taking place around the nation in anticipation of the big event.
When it comes down to it, no other event other than Christmas inspires such consumption. But all that's well-known, old hat; calling the Super Bowl a spectacle of consumerism is like complaining that Christmas has become too commercial. So let's look at another jaw-dropping consumption-related statistic that most people haven't heard about the Super Bowl. How's this one:
According to Just Energy (via TriplePundit), Super Bowl XLV will use a staggering amount of electricity — enough to power 1,500 homes for an entire year. The total calculated energy includes powering the actual event, related functions, hotels, stadiums, and broadcast transmissions. It doesn't take into account the power sucked down by folks' TVs at home. And it's "green" because the NFL hired a company to offset the energy use with 'renewable energy certificates'.
Certificates or no, the Super Bowl remains the epitome of the mighty excess of American consumer culture, hands down. We could power an entire small town for a year with the energy usurped by the Super Bowl; we could feed that same town for the same amount of time with the leftover junk food from the day's event. Now, I've got nothing against football, or even extravagant celebrations — but we should probably take a look at what it is that forms the foundation of what we're actually celebrating: It is, after all, an event that has become our nation's premier spectacle simply by being a bigger spectacle than anything else, built on the promise of being one giant opportunity to sell us stuff.

I have taken small position in this stock simple because I ve seen to many new branches poping up all over long Island N.Y. Not to mention I thougth the divident was not to bad. Why so many people dislike this stock. Keep in mind I'm new to this investing thing.
Yes, dividend is okay, but my initial investment of 1,000 shares is down over 4K. The only I have, except to lose money by selling, is to see if this piece of crap gets bought out by a bigger bank. No guarantee then of making money.Just be careful there are much better stocks to invest in that BANK stocks. IMO.
Probably a good move. Years ago Peter Lynch, one of the geatests investors of all time hit a "4 bagger" (REALLY BIG GAIN) when he noticed that more and more women walking to work in Manhatten were wearing sneakers instead of heels. He bought NIKE etc. and the rest is history.
Plot the 5 year chart and you'll see why longer term investors are down on this stock. IMO, this is a good time to start building a large position. There is more upside potential than down especially with a dividend yielding over 5 percent.

The Granton FFA Chapter has been busy organizing a community carnival and dinner event for Saturday, Oct. 26.
All of the proceeds from the event will be used to help the Naedler Farm families as they begin the grueling process of rebuilding their dairy farm, which was destroyed by fire on July 18.
As a result of the fire, the barn was completely destroyed, along with all of the hay in the barn.
Over 80 head of dairy cows were lost and four silos were destroyed. The Naedler Farm is a joint partnership of two former Granton FFA members, Chad and Aaron Naedler, along with their parents Rodney and Janeen Naedler.
The FFA students understand the devastation that such a tragedy has had on the family and decided that they wanted to host some sort of benefit to help out. So, they have planned a Carnival event, which will be themed around Halloween.
For a fee there will be 25 games and activities for the children to participate in. There will be treats and prizes for the games, as well as cotton candy and popcorn for sale.
There will also be a costume contest, so everyone is encouraged to wear their best costume, including the adults.
Besides the FFA carnival, several community members have been working to host a food stand to raise additional funds. At the event there will be Wenzel brats and hotdogs and Arby's Roast Beef sandwiches for sale, along with chips, cheese curds and beverages for sale.
In addition, there are many great prizes being donated that will be available that evening, including a gun case, a half beef processed, two quarters of beef processed, theme baskets, cash and much more. There will be a silent auction and various drawings throughout the event, as well as a cake walk.
All events will run from 3:30-8 p.m., to accommodate the younger children and the farmers in the area.
The silent auction will conclude at 7:45 p.m. and food will be served after that for a while yet to make sure that everyone has a chance to participate. During the event there will be information available on gifting a heifer to the family.
The dinner will be held in the elementary gym, while the carnival and silent auction events will be held in the field house.
Organizers said they are still looking for volunteers that could help cook or serve food that day, as well as provide cakes or bars for the event.
Anyone wanting to make a contribution for the silent auction or drawings or to make a donation should contact Cheryl Steinbach at email@example.com by Oct. 18. Contributors will be recognized on a sponsor's board the night of the event.
For additional information as it is updated, be sure to check our Naedler Farm Benefit on Facebook or questions may be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com, or contact Cheryl Steinbach at Granton Schools.
Thrivent Financial will be providing supplemental funds for this event.

BIRCH RUN TOWNSHIP, MI — Republican Ray Letterman beat out Democrat C.J. Norris to win a four-year term as Birch Run Township Supervisor.
Letterman received 1,747 votes to Norris' 1,105 votes, winning 59.06 percent to 37.36 percent.
"It feels good, but a little nerve-wracking," Letterman said of his win.
Letterman, 50, has lived in Birch Run Township his entire life and is self-employed on his family's farm. He has served as a volunteer firefighter for 15 years.
Letterman said one of the first issues he will tackle as supervisor is the ongoing conflict between Birch Run Township and the Village of Birch Run.
"It looks like there's a pretty heated deal coming," Letterman said of the conflict between the two municipalities over a sewer hookup for a local golf course.
"It's a job worth doing to move forward," he said.

Election 2009 and the status quo | Bob Roegner
There are big changes ahead in the King County Courthouse and possibly Federal Way City Hall.
But the status quo remained in Kent and Auburn as Mayors Suzette Cooke and Pete Lewis were easily re-elected.
King County Council chairman Dow Constantine captured the county executive's office with a surprisingly large margin of 57 percent to Susan Hutchison's 43 percent. Constantine's win, along with the re-election of incumbent council members, suggests that while there may be some angst with the county, voters favored experience over change. With the county budget facing significant cuts and other issues in the near future, the new executive would appear to have his work cut out for him. One county insider said, "Dow appears committed to reforming how the county does business." But another, noting it's all the same faces said, "If all that changes is office space, then maybe all we've done is rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic." Only time will tell for sure, but who Constantine selects for his key positions will give clues about whether his thinking will take the county in a new direction.
The working environment between the executive and council has been historically awkward. On the surface, both sides will make all of the politically correct statements. But county government operates more beneath the radar than above, so interpreting the true messages will keep a lot of staff and political writers very busy.
The new county assessor will be Lloyd Hara, who defeated four other candidates, including Bob Rosenberger, who spent $100,000 of his own money.
In Federal Way, the public sent a mixed message. On one hand, they overwhelmingly returned incumbents Jeanne Burbidge and Linda Kochmar to office, while at the same time, appeared to be changing the form of government from council-manager to strong mayor. Also, it appears that Roger Freeman has defeated Diana Noble-Gulliford and will join the city council in January. He is perceived as likely to align with councilman Jim Ferrell, but could accomplish more if he stays independent.
The campaign for and against the change divided the community in a way that resulted in a lot of bruised feelings on both sides. If the numbers hold up, a mayoral election will be scheduled for the spring, but the speculation and maneuvering for position began about 15 minutes after the polls closed. Ferrell made his candidacy known many months ago, and it became a sub-issue to the entire campaign. Many other names are making the rounds including council members and state legislators. Others are being watched and courted.
In the interim, the relationships on the council will be publicly cordial, but privately strained. Many saw Ferrell's role as the leader of change. Others saw it as opportunistic ambition. Whatever your view, if the vote holds, the next few months promise to be filled with intrigue, raw politics and maybe a little fun.
As expected, Judge David Larson was re-elected and will be joined at the court by Rebecca Robertson, who defeated Judge Michael Morgan.
Over at the school district, the public sent a major message of support by returning longtime board member Ed Barney and newcomer Angela Griffin to office.
Next week, a closer look at the mayor-manager campaign and what it may mean.

An Essex County woman was found dead around noon today in her home with puncture wounds to her body, according to Paul Loriquet, a spokesman for the Essex County Prosecutor's Office.
Marilyn Gillispie, 51, a resident of Philip Place in Irvington, was found by police after her son reported he couldn't get in touch with her, authorities said. The marks on her body appeared to be stab wounds, Loriquet said.
Authorities are still investigating her death and have not determined whether foul play was involved, Irvington Police Chief Michael Chase said tonight.
Further details were not immediately available, authorities said.

BAY CITY, MI — The Bay City Commission walked back a measure that would have reduced the salaries of commissioners and the mayor by $1,000 each.
Now their salaries will stay at current levels.
Last month, Bay City's elected leaders failed to stop a salary reduction recommended by the Bay City Compensation Commission.
The only way to stop the pay decrease was to pass a proposal rejecting it. The commissioners last month failed to establish a two-thirds supermajority vote necessary to reject the plan.
But, during a Monday, June 3 meeting, one of the commissioners who cast a vote that favored the pay decrease asked for a second vote. The second vote resulted in a reversal of the first vote.
Commissioner Elizabeth Peters said, since her earlier vote, she was made aware of "motivations behind the Compensation Commission that I don't think were in good faith."
"That is troublesome to me," Peters said.
After the meeting, she said another commissioner suggested members of the Compensation Commission voted for the pay reduction for "political purposes," aimed at individual commissioners. Compensation Commission members have said the call to reduce the commission's pay was because of pay cuts to city employees in recent years.
Peters said she also wanted to call a second vote because Commissioner Douglas Sommer was not present at the first vote.
His vote could have made a difference that first time — that tally was a 5-3 vote — and when he was present for the second vote, it did make a difference.
The commission passed the new measure, 6-3.
The same three commissioners who voted in favor of the salary decreases — including Peters, who resurrected the question for Monday's meeting — voted against the pay reduction again on Monday.
Before the vote, Commissioner Larry Elliott questioned the motives of raising the vote a second time, suggesting leaders voting for the pay decreases actually wanted to avoid the cuts without having to suffer political consequences.
He did not single out any individual commissioner.
"There seems to be ... behind-the-door politicking going on to politically look good," Elliott said.
Peters responded, saying her only motivations were to address the Compensation Commission's motivations and allow Sommer a vote on the matter.
Commissioners Christopher Girard and Chad Sibley also voted for the pay decreases.
Commissioners earn $6,000 while the mayor — Chris Shannon — takes home $7,500 annually for their public service. The Compensation Commission initiative would have reduced pay to $5,000 for the commissioners and $6,500 for the mayor, respectively.
The Compensation Commission last reduced salaries in 2009, with pay for commissioners going from $6,700 to $6,000 and the mayor's salary cut from $8,000 to $7,500.

DAUPHIN ISLAND, Alabama -- The Coast Guard is searching for a man who they believe may have fallen overboard and into Mobile Bay this morning, the department said.
According to the Coast Guard, the department's Dauphin Island station received a call around 2:30 a.m. of a missing crewmember aboard a container ship from Singapore. The call came from the Mobile Bar Pilots, who help guide ships safely into the bay.
Missing is a 37-year-old Filipino crewman who was last seen wearing blue coveralls with white pinstripes and a life jacket.
The unnamed crewman is responsible for recovering the ship's Jacob's ladder after the pilot arrives on the ship. According to the Coast Guard, the ladder was found with a shoe on deck, "indicating the possibility of the crewmember falling overboard."
The Coast Guard has sent an airplane crew out of Mobile and a response boat from Dauphin Island along with a helicopter crew and an 87-foot coastal patrol boat for the search.
The Mobile Police Department, Daphne Search and Rescue, Bon Secour Fire Department and Alabama Marine Resource Division have also sent out boat crews to search for the man.

Special Homecoming
November 21, 2013 – Earlier this fall, my 5-year-old son, Alfred, and I helped lead the Misericordia Cougars football team into battle.
On October 5, we were asked by the university — which I graduated from in 2001 — to be honorary captains for the homecoming game against King's College.
I've been on the advisory board for the university's athletic department since 2012, and I've enjoyed working on two fund-raising events. The first was a kickoff dinner for the football program, and the second was an inaugural golf tournament. As I took the field for the ceremonial coin toss, I felt proud of my efforts. But more than that, I was mindful that without the tremendous support of the New York Yankees, my contributions would have been much less impactful.
While it's always nice to be recognized by my alma mater, which is located in Northeast Pennsylvania and plays in the Division III Middle Atlantic Conference, the experience of walking from the home sideline to the 50-yard line with my son was unforgettable.
When we got to mid-field, the King's College captains extended a hand to me and to my young son, who was somewhat in awe of his surroundings. Then, the referee introduced Alfred and I to the crowd over the PA system.
"The Cougars' ceremonial captains for today's game are Al Santasiere and his son Alfred," the referee said. "Al is the director of publications for the New York Yankees and a 2001 graduate of Misericordia University."
At that point, the referee handed me a commemorative coin, and I tossed it high in the air. For the first time in Misericordia's two-year football history, they won a coin toss. Later that afternoon, they took the game into overtime and nearly captured their first victory. But after two overtime rounds, the Cougars lost a heartbreaker, 41-40.
After nearly two full seasons, the Cougars finally earned their first victory. This past Saturday (November 16) Misericordia defeated Fairleigh Dickinson University on the road.

A quarter of the way through this dizzying, delirious memoir, James Ellroy, the bestselling self-styled "demon dog" of crime writing, famed for the likes of LA Confidential, treats the reader to a snatch of the podium patter he uses on his book tours. He says: "I need a strong woman to tame me with her love and walk over me in high black boots." But it's no mere audience pleaser — it is damn near his modus operandi. This book, subtitled "My Pursuit of Women", unflinchingly details Ellroy's lack of luck in love.

Austin Jerman is jumping right into basketball.
"Right now, it doesn't feel like football is over," he said this week.
"It feels like next year I'm going to have another season," said Jerman.

Shotgun offense
Warren County's all-time leading passer, Austin Jerman, lines up at quarterback out of the shotgun during a game vs. Titusville at War Memorial Field.
The standout senior quarterback has played his last high school football game, but has dreamed of playing at the next level. That dream might become a reality.
Before he's had much time to reflect on a high school career that includes the county's all-time career passing record, Jerman has already visited Division II Clarion University and Mercyhurst University, as well as Division I-AA Duquesne.
"Now that the season is over, I've thought about it more and more," said Jerman. "If I were to go to the next level, quarterback (is the position I'd want to play)."
Jerman has dreamed about playing pro football "on TV" since he was a little kid in the Warren County Youth Football League. It was only last year - as a junior in high school - did he start thinking about playing college football.
"We had a bad season (as a team), but our offense was able to put up some points (last year)," he said.
Jerman didn't fall in love with the quarterback position until seventh grade when this group of seniors was 1-5 in their first junior high football season, he said. "They didn't have anyone else to put out there," said Jerman.
"Football has been number one by four miles," he said. "It's always been my favorite (sport), even when I was younger, out playing (with friends) in the snow."
Those same friends just finished 9-3 in their senior season and a trip to the District 10 Class AAA playoffs; a turnaround from last year's 2-8 season.
"Last year was kind of our (varsity) debut and we didn't live up to what we (had always) wanted," said Jerman. "But what we were able to accomplish this year was awesome."
Despite being eliminated in the playoff semifinals by the top-ranked Class AAA team in the state, Jerman - and the Dragons - certainly made an indelible mark on the program.
In head coach Brad Wright's shotgun spread offense, Warren averaged close to 40 points a game and won its first playoff game in 10 years.
The 6-foot-2-inch, 180-pound Jerman became Warren Area High School's and Warren County School District's all-time passing yardage leader. He finished with 4,348 career passing yards, which is sixth all-time in District 10. Jerman passed Eisenhower graduate Cody Crosby (4,221) for the Warren County record. He also led the Dragons in rushing with over 700 yards.
"Austin was able to achieve a higher level of play not previously achieved at this school," said Wright. "The reasons for this are many. First, I'd like to say that in terms of what you look for in quarterback, Austin has all of the intangibles. He has a very strong arm, is tall and athletic, can read defenses, can scramble and extend plays, can throw on the run and rarely if ever repeats a mistake. These are all things that he just doesn't do well, he excels at these aspects of QB play.
"In addition to this," Wright said, "Austin was very fundamentally sound in all aspects of quarterbacking and has a classic quick release. What really made my job easier as a coach with Austin, was that we were able to combine a great ground game system in the Veer option and a West Coast style in the passing game. His dual threat ability gave us a very dangerous balance of run and pass. This makes play calling a lot more easy when you have these options."
It's a good thing his coaches made him a quarterback in junior high.
"I began to take notice of him his freshman year," said Wright. "His ninth-grade coaches at the time were telling me that he had a bright future a head of him. I didn't get my first real extended look at him until his sophomore season when he started as our J.V. quarterback. Once I saw him put together a string of quality starts I began to think we might have a future star."
In two seasons as starting quarterback, Jerman has thrown for over 2,000 yards each season. He threw for 2,206 yards in 2011 and 2,091 yards as a senior. He is one of only two passers in D-10 history to reach 2,000 yards in two seasons. Corry's Scottie Frisina threw for 2,065 yards in 2009 and 2,010 in 2010, and he walked on at Division I West Virginia.
"His total of 2,206 yards during the 2011 season stands as the fourth highest all-time single season total in D-10 history," said Wright. "Austin ended up with 4,349 yards in just two seasons as a starter. That is absolutely remarkable. Had he another year as a starter, you might be looking at D-10's all-time career passing leader. He certainly is the undisputed best passing QB in Warren County football history and has cemented himself as one of D-10's all time best all-around QB's. On top of his passing totals, he also rushed for 895 yards and 13 rushing TD's in his two years as a starter."
Jerman joked that Frisina walking on at West Virginia isn't helping matters. He's had friends, Kory Thomas and Mitch McTavish, trying to convince him to try to walk on at West Virginia and Penn State, respectively.
For the time being, Jerman is focusing on finding a college that has a strong program for athletic training or physical therapy.
"Right now, I've been focusing on just the academics part," he said. "It's definitely just hitting me... going into this season I was focusing on the season ahead."
He said he doesn't have to make a decision about whether to or where to play college football until February.
He said he visited Clarion University with teammate Mark Davis on the weekend the Division II Golden Eagles were playing Slippery Rock. Davis was one of his primary receivers, and Jerman is not lost on the fact that the Dragons were a strong team, and not just individuals.
"One of Austin's best attributes was that he had the mental discipline and offensive awareness to spread the ball around to all of his talented receivers," said Wright, who added that Jerman is one of the best defensive backs he's coached, which helps his quarterbacking. "We ended up with six receivers over 100 yards this season. Three of those receivers had over 400 yards. He never dropped back and just looked for one guy. He always read the defense and delivered the ball to the correct person.
"Austin's county passing record is certainly something that we can attribute to an over all team effort," said Wright. "I felt that in my five years as head coach of Warren Area High School, this was our best all-around team. Our pass protection was the best in my five years here as well as our running game. Being better in both of these areas helped open up a lot of things in the passing game for this team."
Jerman said it's surreal to be asked where he is going to be playing college football, given that he's looking at mainly Division II colleges.
"I'm just going to see how it all plays out," he said. "I've been getting the question a lot and I just don't know how to answer it."
He thinks the Dragons the loss to No. 1 Cathedral Prep - 54-12 in the District 10 Class AAA semifinals - was a tremendous opportunity for Warren to show how far they've come.
"The caliber of players they had was unbelievable," said Jerman.
Prep's starting quarterback, Damien Terry, is District 10's all-time leading passer and is going to D-I Michigan State.
"He was fun to watch," said Jerman. "They are the best team in the state and have so many (college) recruits. I was a little sore after, but I think it was all worth it. For the most part, we held our own. Playing a team like that - a private school, I don't know if it's fair, but it was a good test. If they go on to win the state championship, we can say (we lost to the best team in the state)."
The game might have given Jerman a forecast into college ball, in which he said is obviously "much faster," and linemen much bigger.
"Austin has not made up his mind yet where he is going to college," said Wright. "At this point, his plan is to play college football somewhere. One thing is for certain, though: he is an intelligent young man who will be thinking of academics first."

Bowlers roll for kids
A spring snowstorm was no impediment to the 10th annual Bowl For Kids Sake fundraiser to benefit Oak Harbor Big Brothers/Big Sisters in fact, the warm confines of Oak Bowl on Midway Boulevard was the place to be Saturday morning.
The historic facility, in its 51st year of operation, was jumping with bowlers of all ages turning out in support of the worthwhile cause.
Bowlers began arriving at 8:30 a.m. for a round of socializing and practice before the action got started about an hour later.
All of the funds raised from T-shirt sales, donated prizes, raffles and team entry fees go directly toward matching children with carefully screened, caring Big Brothers /Big Sisters volunteers, and bowlers of all ages were out in force to share in the magic of connecting a child with a mentor.
Team names were diverse as the bowlers themselves and ranged from the Kiwanis Club, that has been a part of the event since its inception 10 years ago, to a team that called itself The Divas and The Guy.
In between were the Key Bowlers, all from Oak Harbor High School, who spent a fun Saturday morning dressed in their black T-shirts with a huge green star imprinted the front knocking down pins for the worthy cause.
Martha Wallin said this is her fifth year bowling in the event.
I am bowling on the Kiwanis team again this year and we are also the sponsors of the Key Club team, she said.
Oak Harbor High School senior KeryJeane Gehling, who is involved in just about every activity imaginable from being a member of the Wildcats medical staff at football games, to taking tickets at soccer and basketball games, to being a lifeguard at John Vanderzicht Memorial pool, said she has bowled at For Kids Sake fundraisers in previous years.
They are a lot of fun to be in and there are so many people who get involved to help out and make the event a success, she said.
Some of the bowlers were in the event for the first time and were surprised at the number of participants.
Two of the first timers were Cathy West and Nicole McCluskey, both from Oak Harbor, and both members of team Kiwanis.
I work at Whidbey Island Bank, McCluskey said. This event is really something and Ill be back next year.
Big Brothers/Big Sisters board member John Dyer was also on hand, along with his granddaughter, Lucy Stanford, and her mother, Jennie.
Ive bowled in this event before, but I havent for a few years, Jennie Stanford said. Im back again and it seems to get bigger and better every year.
Everyone involved had a good time at the event and $15,300 was raised to benefit the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program.

HAMPSTEAD — Topsail beat West Brunswick 2-1 Friday in West's final baseball game of the Mideastern 3A/4A Conference season.
Topsail scored two unearned runs in the bottom of the first inning with two outs in taking a 2-0 lead.

The North Carolina High School Athletic Association's annual spring board of directors meeting accepted and approved statewide alignment of conference teams. North Brunswick will join the Mideastern 3A/4A Conference in the 2017-18 season and will compete as a Class 3A team.
Additional items:
LELAND — North Brunswick's boys finished first and North's girls finished second in the East Central Conference track and field championships.
North's boys scored 197 points in the six-team meet May 5 at North. Croatan was second (121.25).
For North, Jayhlen Washington won the 110-meter hurdles race (14.0 seconds), the long jump (23 feet, 4.5 inches) and the triple jump (46-0). Larry Hobbs was third in the long jump (19-9).
Cameron Barnhill won the 100-meter run (10.9) and the 200 (23.1).
West Brunswick beat New Hanover 3-1 May 4 in a Mideastern 3A/4A Conference baseball game.
Winning pitcher Johnathan Carlyle (8-0) gave up six hits in seven innings. He struck out three, walked one and hit one batter.
West scored two runs in the bottom of the sixth in taking a 3-1 lead. With one out, Ashburn reached on an error. He stole second and scored on a two-out double by Tyler McDuffie. Carlyle singled home McDuffie.
The West Brunswick boys' golf team fell eight strokes short of qualifying for the state tournament next week at Whispering Pines Country Club.
In the NCHSAA 3A Regional Monday at Reedy Creek Golf Course, the Trojans shot a 340 and finished tied for fifth among 11 teams.
The top three finishers from the regional qualified for state: C.B. Aycock, Corinth Holders and West Craven. Each team shot a 332.
No one from West qualified individually. Tucker Vaughan shot an 80 and tied for 11th. He missed qualifying for state by two strokes.
West Brunswick beat Ashley 14-4 in six innings Monday in a first-round game of the Mideastern 3A/4A Conference championship softball tournament at West.
The Trojans scored nine runs in the fourth inning en route to the victory.
The first week of May can be a magical time for fishermen of Brunswick County. As history tells it, May is typically the transition month for almost all targeted species of game fish along the southeastern section of North Carolina. Mahi mahi have begun their annual late spring run up the edge of the coast, the king mackerel have started feeding in the 30-mile range and, thankfully, a few Spanish mackerel have been found along the beachfront.
The average water temperature in our area is holding in the lower 70s and that has triggered a good flounder bite. Shallow areas like Tubbs Inlet and Dunn Sound, S.C., and Hogg Inlet S.C., have all produced numbers of small flounder the last few weeks. As the water temperature has continued rise and is holding around 70 degrees even in our surf zones, deeper areas have started to show signs of life. Places like the Little River (S.C.) jetties, Shallotte Inlet and Lockwood Folly have all seen more flounder this week with solid keepers in the mix.
What a difference a few years makes. When I first started writing this column almost 13 years ago, I remember speaking with Marcia Heady. At that time, she was the athletics director for West Brunswick High School.
"We can't get enough kids to field a golf team," she moaned. "We have to beg kids to play. We hardly need tryouts. It's sad, because we live in the golf capital of the world and our kids just aren't into golf."

It's always curious how the seemingly most menial and subtle changes to a blend recipe can have such profound radical effects on cup quality and flavor. It's also reassuring to know there is so much validation for sourcing such a wide array of different coffee origins. Guatemala is distinctive from El Salvador, which is distinctive from Costa Rica, etc. And even within a country there is a tremendous amount of disparity and variety. Reduce a blend by 10% of one Central American quality and replace it with 10% of another, and you suddenly get brothy instead of cider. Who knew?!?!

Every year Seasonal Affective Disorder (whose meaning is summed up in its acronym: SAD) reasserts itself on my psyche. As winter wears on, simultaneously wearing on everyone's nerves, with the exception of the unique group of people who engage in outdoor wintertime activities, It seems as though the world will never be warm again.
On a positive note, along with the weather-related funk, mid to late winter also brings some great coffees. Coffee, like any other agricultural product, has peaks and valleys in its harvest, and subsequently, its quality and freshness. We're finally working our way through last year's crop of coffee, which is starting to seem a tad lackluster. At the same time, we're starting to receive newly harvested coffee that practically sings with nice fresh notes; clean and sparkling - just like the spring that is sure to arrive any day now.
This bright note in an otherwise windy and cold reality has become one of my life's little pleasures. I hope you enjoy some of the bright and juicy coffee flavors that will be finding their way onto our shelves now, and in the coming months.

Interesting cupping today. Noted the difference in Papua New Guinea coffee residing in our warehouse here in Mpls for just the past few weeks. The coffee that is 'fresher' and due to deliver from NJ/NYC cups with a slightly more tart and sharp note, while the current has turned more milky, herby, and almost hint of rhubarb. Reminder of this is why we taste every day, and the roasters can adjust accordingly. ~B

Today on the cupping table we had what can best be described as an aged Ethiopian Harrar. As you might know, one of the pieces of the Reindeer Blend puzzle is an aged Sumatra. This coffee helps bring out the spiciness of the blend and deepen the body.
While i had some expectation of what we might find when i heard the term bandied about, it was nothing like i expected. There are coffees best suited to aging, and even then it requires strict monitoring to be sure the process doesn't ruin the beans.
Ruined is the friendliest way i could describe this aged Harrar. Something tells me either an importer sent the sample by mistake or has a pretty twisted sense of humor. The first slurp triggered a physical reaction that made me want to spit it our immediately and left me gasping. Dirty, burning burlap might be the words i'd use to describe it. Nothing like the juicy blueberry, high juniper or jasmine notes, and big bodied sweetness you normally find.
There are good days and bad days in the cupping lab, and while we'd love wine and roses all the time, there are the days that remind us why we must cup every sample, every time. Quality, specialty coffee doesn't happen by accident, and it's our job to be the custodians so you can reap the benefit in your cup.

People seem to think that just because I advocate eating your own dog food, that means that I don't approve of usability testing.
Nothing could be further from the truth. Cheap "hallway" usability testing is one of the 12 requirements of The Joel Test. There's a whole chapter on usability testing, and how to do it the right way, in my upcoming book.
Carl Zetim wrote a critique of my article called "Eat Your Own Dog Food, but Not as a Substitute for Usability". Sorry, you can't read it, he works for Giga and they charge for their ideas. His critique basically said that eating your own dog food is "one of the most pernicious barriers to doing true usability," and then he gives the unlikely example of Microsoft, which actually does tons of usability testing.
Just because I said "eat your own dog food" doesn't mean I don't advocate usability testing. It's just a logical fallacy. They could have said "Eat Your Own Dog Food, but Not If It Means The Dog Will Go Hungry." It just doesn't follow.
You're reading Joel on Software, stuffed with years and years of completely raving mad articles about software development, managing software teams, designing user interfaces, running successful software companies, and rubber duckies.

Corn producers and other professionals in the agriculture industry depend on the Iowa State University Extension publication Corn Diseases, PM 596. It is always in high demand, and after a revision, is back on the shelf to be ordered from the Extension online store.
The title is precise, the photographs dynamic and the information concise. Alison Robertson, Daren Mueller and Greg Tylka, extension plant pathologists updated the publication by adding new photographs and information on a couple of "new" diseases.
"The booklet is divided into four sections – foliage and above-ground diseases, stalk rots, diseases affecting roots, and ear and kernel rot," said Robertson. "We have added two diseases - Physoderma brown spot and anthracnose top dieback - and a section on management of foliar diseases with fungicides."
Corn Diseases, PM 596, details diseases that occur on a regular basis in the Midwest and those that occur less regularly but are potentially very damaging when they occur. Along with multiple photographs, each disease description includes symptoms, favorable conditions for disease development and management options.
"Every year corn diseases reduce yields to some extent and can be responsible for reductions in grain and seed quality," Robertson said. "Their occurrence is strongly influenced by weather conditions – and we have had an assortment this year."
For additional publications on corn diseases and other production issues, visit your county extension office or check out the Extension online store.
Alison Robertson is an assistant professor of plant pathology with research and extension responsibilities in field crop diseases.

Just like the last three years, the Sacred Heart High School softball team reached the NJSIAA Non-Public South B championship game. But, unlike the last three years, Lions coach Les Olson didn't think the team's run would end in the sectional final.
There was something different about this year, about this team that didn't exist the previous seasons.
"There was this aura about them," Olson said. "They just had this presence (in the playoffs) that, 'We have this. It's not going to be a problem.' You could just see and feel it."
Junior Lindsay Dwyer agreed, and said it started in the winter when news broke that the Camden Diocese was going to close Sacred Heart at the end of the school year. The players were obviously devastated by the announcement but decided at that time that there would be no better way to go out than as state champions.
Even though the decision was reversed later in the winter, the wheels were already set in motion for the Lions.
"We got together after (hearing the news) and asked, 'What should we do?'" Dwyer said. "Coach told (team captain) Rachel Gavigan she was going to lead us to a state title. We just got so amped up and had more power and intensity than any other year."
The Lions exercised their S.J. demons and beat Gill St. Bernard for their first title in eight years and then recorded a 3-1 victory over Immaculate Conception to win the school's first state championship in its 85-year history.
It capped a season in which the Lions, who were named the Today's Sunbeam/News of Cumberland County Team of the Year, went 27-6 and won the Overbrook Tournament.
"I think what we did so well was when we lost, we learned from it," said Gavigan. "Coach always tells us that we have to learn from the losses and that is why we played our best at the end. That is a credit to those girls. Losing to Buena twice and not winning the conference, we could have given up. But, we had a goal of a state championship, to not give up on each other and we pulled through."
After starting the year 11-0 before falling to Absegami, 5-4, the Lions hit a rough patch in the middle of the season. They went 3-3 with losses to Buena, Clearview and Gloucester Catholic but quickly recovered and won their final eight games of the year.
"It was a little bit of a roller coaster ride," Olson said. "After winning our first 11 games, we hit a stretch were we were not quite sure where we were going. We lost some games we shouldn't have but at the end we caught that special fire and special roll that carried us through to the state championship."
They also caught a nearly untouchable pitcher, too. Sophomore Rosie LaGrotta pitched a two-hit shutout against Wildwood Catholic in the quarterfinals, a no-hitter in the S.J. final and a one-hitter in the state title game.
The focus, at least for the returning players, is already on next year. They realize that they will be wearing a giant target on their backs and everyone will try to knock them off the perch.
"We know we will be playing with a huge bullseye on our backs and everyone will be treating us as the team to beat," Dwyer said. "It won't matter to us because we are going to keep moving forward and playing with that same intensity we did this year. We want another state title."

Dee McComb
Biography: I have been a real estate settlement professional over 35 years, escrow educator, including community college, and speaker.

I bring people skills, problem solving skills and listening with consensus building to the table. Fairness for utility ratepayers, and consistency in working with implementation of the impact of SMP changes as well as exploring alternative revenue sources beyond real estate recovery development and impact fees are all important. Balance in maintaining our small town atmosphere, encouraging growth, and supporting the arts while tackling budget issues and controlling expenses are high on the list.

GREENFIELD – A 6-iron was wielded as a weapon during an attack Monday afternoon on a 61-year-old Davis Street man who reportedly owed his attacker $20 for a recent heroin purchase, police said.
Police were sent to 123 Davis St at about 4:30 p.m. for a report of a fight in progress, according to a post on the department's Facebook page.
Witnesses told Sgt. James Rode they saw Oscar Ramirez, 26, 60 Central St., Apt. 1, Turners Falls, enter the home and Kirsten Sweeney, 23, of 100 Broadway St., Lake Pleasant, rip a screen off a window and open it.
Witnesses then saw one of the suspects on top of the victim, beating him up.
Ramirez and Sweeney then fled the scene, police said.
The victim, 61-year-old Donald Poinsett, told police that he owed Ramirez $20 for heroin that he purchased several days ago. He told police the fight was over money owed and that he did not want to press charges.
Bernardston police arrested Ramirez and Sweeney a short time later and brought them to Greenfield police.
Poinsett had an active warrant and was arrested for that, Upon booking, officers noticed that his left arm was injured.

Pretty Katherine splashed home to an easy win in the $16,300 City of Roses Handicap at Portland Meadows. Sent off as the even money favorite, Pretty Katherine raced a little green on the opening turn, but settled into stride behind early pace setters Tapit So Lightly and Perfect Finish, who set moderate fractions on the front end. Pretty Katherine started to accelerate at the 3/8ths pole, and quickly swept up to the early leaders. She took command at the quarter pole and quickly drew away through the stretch, winning by six lengths.
Pretty Katherine was ridden to victory by jockey Javier Matias for trainer Jerry Hollendorfer and owners George Todaro and Jerry Hollendorfer. Tapit So Lightly stayed on to finish second, almost three lengths clear of Perfect Finish, who ran third.

WELCOME TO MUSIC TOGETHER OF DAVIS! Offering music and movement classes for
infants, toddlers, preschoolers, kindergartners
& the adults who love them . . .
Music Together® is an internationally recognized early childhood music program for families with children birth through 5 years old. Now taught in over 2000 communities spanning more than 25 countries, the program was developed in 1987 by the Center for Music and Young Children in Princeton, NJ. Music Together pioneered the concept of a research-based, developmentally appropriate music curriculum that facilitates adult involvement. Through informal instruction, classes provide an engaging, playful, and non-performance-oriented learning environment that emphasizes actual music experiences rather than concepts about music. One of the unique features of Music Together is that no matter where you are -- whether it's California or Istanbul -- your family is singing the same songs and reading the same songbooks.
Music Together classes build on your child(ren)'s natural enthusiasm for music and movement. We believe that music ability is as much a basic life skill as walking or talking, and that all children can achieve basic music competence -- i.e. learn to sing in tune, keep a beat, and participate in music-making with confidence and pleasure -- provided that their early environment supports such learning. Music Together creates a rich musical environment in the classroom, while also facilitating family participation in spontaneous musical activity at home within the context of daily life. The program provides children with the basic musical skills needed to enjoy school and social musical activities, and to study voice or an instrument if they choose to do so in the future.
Schedule a demo in one of our current classes, and see whether Music Together is a good fit for you and your child(ren)!
