The forum was opened by the Deputy Secretary of the UN, Jan Eliasson. It was also attended by Piero Fassino, Mayor of Turin, who expressed his pride about the event and the collaboration with the United Nations: "This initiative is a great opportunity to showacse our city in an international arena."
Other recipients of the award were:

English Language Requirements Students registering in post-secondary level courses (numbered 100 to 499) will be required to meet the English language entrance proficiency requirements. Students in ESL or the University Foundations programs can register in those courses identified in the University Foundations program with lower levels of language proficiency.
PHIL 1003 credits
ReasoningPrerequisite(s): None
Have you ever tried to figure out why someone's reasoning wasn't quite right? Have you ever had your own cherished reasoning demolished? Have your essays, exams, or lab reports ever been torn apart for being illogical? If so, you need this course. Good reasoning is the basis for successful thought and action. Good methods of reasoning help us to analyze an issue or problem, to assess various solutions, and to understand how to find the correct answer. In order to detect and avoid errors in our reasoning, we examine fallacies of reasoning, different forms of arguments, the concepts of truth and validity, proof and evidence, consistency and contradiction, definition and generalization, deduction and induction. Throughout the course, we apply our methods of reasoning to various issues, both practical and theoretical.
PHIL 1103 credits
Morality and PoliticsPrerequisite(s): None
There have always been conflicts between individuals, and between social organizations and the individuals who compose them. What is the nature and source of these conflicts? Are they due to human nature? What rights and obligations do individuals have? What rights and obligations do social organizations — such as the state, a trade union, and the family — have to their members? What are justice and freedom? These questions, and the answers offered by classic and contemporary authors such as Plato, Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Mill, Marx, and Cordova are examined in lectures, films, discussions, and writing.
PHIL 1203 credits
Knowledge and RealityPrerequisite(s): None
Many of the traditional problems and arguments in philosophy deal with the nature of human individuality. Individuality is acclaimed as one of the great achievements of western civilization. The progress of civilization has often been measured by how much individuality is allowed to flourish. What is individuality? What makes me a unique individual? In order to answer these questions, we also need to ask: When do I have free will to express my individuality? What is the relationship between my physical nature — my body — and my spiritual nature — my mind? Am I really anything more than a complicated thinking machine? What happens to me when I die?
PHIL 2103 credits
Contemporary Issues in Morality and PoliticsPrerequisite(s): 15 credits of university-level course work
Through seminars and directed reading, problems of current interest in moral and political philosophy are dealt with, including conflicts between dominant moral theories, between the demands of morality and of politics, and between theories of justice, freedom, and human nature.Note: PHIL 210 is the same as POSC 270. Although the transferability may differ, credit cannot be obtained for both PHIL 210 and POSC 270 at UFV.
PHIL 2203 credits
Issues in Metaphysics and EpistemologyPrerequisite(s): 15 credits of university-level course work
Through seminars and directed reading, traditional problems of metaphysics and epistemology are examined, such as the nature of persons, theories of truth, free will and determinism, the nature of space and time, language and meaning, the relation of evidence to knowledge and belief, scientific method.
PHIL 2303 credits
Philosophy of LawPrerequisite(s): 15 credits of university-level course work
Our legal and penal systems are often severely criticized. We can better understand these criticisms and the issues they raise if we can answer a number of philosophical questions about the nature of law, punishment, and responsibility. Why do we have laws? What is law: is it essentially a constraining force or is it a force for freedom? What is the relationship of the law to morality: should the law enforce morality? When is a person responsible for an act and thus legally liable for punishment? Why do we punish criminals: to deter crimes, to rehabilitate the criminal, or to "pay back" the criminal? Is it ever justified to break the law?Note: PHIL 230 (formerly 130) is the same as CRIM 130. Although the transferability may differ, credit cannot be obtained for both PHIL 230 and CRIM 130 at UFV.
PHIL 2403 credits
Faith and Reason: Philosophy of ReligionPrerequisite(s): 15 credits of university-level course work
Religion is hailed for giving value to our lives where science and humanism fail, and it is condemned as a crutch, an illusion, a mere hedging of bets. What is the special character of religion? Is it appropriate to ask for evidence in religion, for example, in support of the existence of God, or does religion rely on special experiences of revelation and miracles? These questions raise many further issues such as the nature of God, the possibility of an afterlife, and the nature of good and evil. Responses to these and other questions given by people such as Plato, Aquinas, Descartes, Hume, and Freud are examined in lectures, films, discussion, and writing.
PHIL 2503 credits
History of Western Philosophy: Ancient PhilosophyPrerequisite(s): 15 credits of university-level course work
Who was Socrates and why did so many want him dead? What is Platonic love, anyway? Why did Diogenes wear nothing but a barrel? These questions and many more will be explored in this course. Western philosophy began in Ancient Greece and the questions and concerns that fascinated the Greeks are still with us today. In this course, students will read the works of Plato and Aristotle as well as those of the Pre-Socratics and the Hellenistic schools of Stoicism and Epicureanism. The class will be of value to students of philosophy as well as those interested in the history of Western culture.
PHIL 251A3 credits
Rationalism and Early Modern PhilosophyPrerequisite(s): 15 university-level credits
Rationalism, as a philosophical school of thought, originates in the 17th century with the work of Rene Descartes. Descartes presents his philosophy as a critical reaction to prior schools of thought. At the core of his objections is the claim that genuine knowledge is a result of operations of reason independent of experience. He contends that previous philosophies cannot meet the requirements imposed on knowledge by reason. In this course, we will explore how Descartes' rationalism arises from his critique of philosophical traditions and how subsequent rationalist philosophies, such as those of Spinoza and Leibniz, are themselves predicated on a critique of Descartes' arguments.
PHIL 251B3 credits
Empiricism and Early Modern PhilosophyPrerequisite(s): 15 university-level credits
For the Empiricist philosophers of the 17th and 18th centuries, anything that can be known about the world or about ourselves is said to be found in sensation and perception. However, this general agreement that knowledge is a function of experience gives way to disagreements regarding the nature of experience and what it actually enables us to know. In this course, we will examine the fundamentals of early modern empiricism, with a particular emphasis on how major philosophers of the time approached the question of knowledge, ethics, and politics. Philosophers to be covered include John Locke, George Berkeley, and David Hume.
PHIL 2523 credits
History of Continental PhilosophyPrerequisite(s): 15 credits of university-level course work
The real-life killers depicted in Orson Welles' film Compulsion were said to have been inspired by the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche. Adolf Hitler was rumoured to have carried of copy of Arthur Schopenhauer's The World as Will and Representation with him during World War I. These are just two examples of the intersection of 19th and 20th century philosophy and history. In this course we will examine the works of Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, and other European philosophers such as Hegel, Heidegger, and Sartre. The intent is to highlight the works of these thinkers so that the student can understand their importance to philosophy as well as the impact they had on the world.
PHIL 3003 credits
Symbolic Logic in ContextPrerequisite(s): 45 university-level credits
Symbolic logic is a formal reasoning system which has been influential in philosophy, computing, and mathematics. This course provides an overview of its most basic elements: propositional and predicate logic and their methods of proof. These elements are then critically analyzed to assess their strengths and weaknesses as a grounding for analytic philosophy and for rationality in general.
PHIL 3053 credits
Philosophy of Decision Making and Dispute ResolutionPrerequisite(s): 60 credits of university-level course work. PHIL 100 and/or 110 recommended
Complex decisions and dispute resolution tax our reasoning skills to the limit and challenge our hopes and beliefs. This course reflects critically on the philosophical principles behind different models of decision making and dispute resolution currently in use in law, business, and social settings. It enables students to make informed judgements about how suitable these models are for their own professional and personal contexts.
PHIL 3103 credits
Ethics and Public PolicyPrerequisite(s): 45 credits in Applied or Arts or Science programs, including nine credits in Philosophy or Political Science; or permission of the instructor
Sometimes our ethics are about how we act individually; for example, whether to make a charitable donation for cancer research. Sometimes, our ethics are about our political practices; for example, whether to make our charitable donations tax deductible.What role should ethics play in our social and political practices? Should our ethics -- what we think is right -- take into account the realities of politics -- of how we collectively make decisions? Should we structure our social and political practices to meet ethical requirements?In order to pursue these questions about diverse practices such as health care, international relations, business, employment relations, and government, we will look at various approaches to ethics that focus on practical issues of forming, justifying, and implementing political and social solutions.
PHIL 3123 credits
Occupational EthicsPrerequisite(s): 45 credits from Applied or Arts or Science programs, including one of Philosophy 110,210, 230, Political Science 120 or 270
Whether you are an employee, an employer, or an entrepreneur, you will face difficult ethical decisions in your working life. Every stage of employment, from choosing your career to deciding to retire, raises ethical issues. Every working relationship raises questions about your role and responsibilities, whether you are the boss or the customer, the professional or the student, the caregiver or the client. How should you choose a career? What rights should you have as a boss or as a subordinate? What information is private, what should be kept confidential, and what information must be shared? How will you determine and balance your loyalties, your priorities, and your responsibilities? When and why should you go the extra mile for a client, a colleague, or a boss? When should your job take second place to your personal life? This course will examine a variety of ethical issues in employment and show you how to apply ethical theories to situations you will face.
PHIL 3153 credits
Contemporary Ethical TheoryPrerequisite(s): PHIL 110 and six additional credits of Philosophy or Politics courses
Justifying positions on practical moral issues such as abortion, capital punishment, the duty to contribute to famine relief, or the rights of aboriginal peoples, requires reference to ethical principles which must themselves be justified. This course addresses problems in the justification of moral principles. Topics to be covered may include the objectivity of moral judgment, moral relativism, the nature of the good, impartiality, egoism, utilitarianism, deontology, feminist ethics and virtue ethics. The course will focus on detailed discussion of these concepts and theories as they affect practical moral reasoning.
PHIL 3183 credits
Environmental EthicsPrerequisite(s): 45 credits, including nine credits in Philosophy or Political Science; or permission of the instructor.
Do modern Western assumptions divorce humans from nature, divide mind and body, and justify using science and technology as means of dominating our environment for human convenience? Do environmental problems result? Are there better approaches to the environment? We will examine local examples of global issues to produce proposals for individual and collective action.
PHIL 3223 credits
The Philosophy of MindPrerequisite(s): 45 university-level credits
We commonly suppose that our basic conscious awareness brings with it knowledge of what we take to be our minds. However, upon reflection, we come to realize that the source of our mental activities is not as immediate or as clear as we would like. Traditionally, philosophers have been at the forefront in addressing questions regarding the nature of the mind. This course allows students an opportunity to explore dominant trends in the philosophy of mind, with an emphasis on contemporary positions.
PHIL 3233 credits
Philosophical Issues in the Social Sciences: Values, Objectivity, and NeutralityPrerequisite(s): Six credits of philosophy or 45 credits of Arts and Applied Arts courses
The social and human sciences are highly influential in contemporary social and political life. To what extent are economics, sociology, archaeology, anthropology, psychology, and political science, truly "scientific"? Is it reasonable to expect them to lead to law-like conclusions about social phenomena? What is the role of interpretation in explanations of social events? How do the facts of cultural and gender diversity affect the capacity to understand social phenomena? Is there some cross-cultural rationality that can be applied to all societies? Is it possible for social scientists to maintain political and gender neutrality, or is social inquiry always tainted by the biases of the researcher?
PHIL 3253 credits
Contemporary Philosophy: The Problem of TruthPrerequisite(s): PHIL 120 and six additional credits of Philosophy
"The truth is out there." "Truth is stranger than fiction." "The truth will set you free." Clichés concerning the truth abound. However, in contemporary academic circles, these commonplace assertions are actively questioned. Hence it's not unusual to find philosophers who argue that the truth is nowhere, that the truth is fiction or that the idea of truth is a weapon of oppression. In this course we examine such radical positions as well as recent attempts made to redeem the concept of truth. Topics to be examined may include the relationship between language and truth, the debate over the nature of texts, and the status of truth as a socially determined concept.
PHIL 3523 credits
History of Analytic PhilosophyPrerequisite(s): 45 university-level credits, including 6 credits of lower-level philosophy
For many Anglo-American philosophers, the history of 20th century philosophy is the history of analytic philosophy. What began as a term denoting a philosophical method has become a label for an entire philosophical tradition. In this course we will investigate major developments in analytic philosophy. We will begin with its emergence in the late 19th century and examine its dominant 20th century forms. Philosophers to be covered in the course may include Frege, Russell, Wittgenstein, Quine, and Davidson.
PHIL 3533 credits
Philosophies of IndiaPrerequisite(s): Six credits of Philosophy or forty-five credits in university-level course work
This course will examine Indian philosophy and its answers to fundamental and traditional philosophical questions regarding the nature and meaning of human existence, and the nature and limits of knowledge, and with practical questions concerning how one should live. Over the last 3,000 years a variety of schools have been developed to come to terms with these questions in the Indian context. PHIL 353 will introduce the principal schools of Indian philosophy, drawing attention to their importance in making sense of contemporary Indian society. Influences of Islam, Sikhism, Gandhi, and Aurobindo will be considered. The course will be of interest to students of philosophy who wish to explore an exciting and rich philosophical tradition that is in many ways distinct from that of the West, and to students who wish to develop understanding of Indian society and culture.
PHIL 3603 credits
Special Topics: Contemporary Issues for Philosophical AnalysisPrerequisite(s): 45 credits from Arts, Sciences or Applied programs, including one of PHIL 100, PHIL 110, PHIL 120
The course will provide students with an opportunity to investigate contemporary cultural and social issues using the methods of philosophical analysis. The student will gain a broader understanding of modern problems and will acquire a greater appreciation for the practical application of philosophical techniques.

PHIL 3623 credits
Philosophy of EducationPrerequisite(s): PHIL 110 or 45 credits of Arts and Applied Arts courses
This course is an introduction to the ethical and philosophical dimensions of education. Topics to be examined concern the aims of education, autonomy, the justification of education, the value of knowledge, the distinction between education and indoctrination, the education of the emotions, the justification of educational authority, equality of educational opportunity, personal relationships in teaching, professional ethics in teaching, and moral education.Note: Students cannot take EDUC 362 for further credit.
PHIL 3643 credits
Philosophy and ChildrenPrerequisite(s): 45 credits from Applied or Arts or Science programs
What is a child? The concept of a child occupies a precarious position and has not always received the attention that it deserves. Not yet a fully rational agent, but endowed with the potential to become one, the child's status spells trouble for core philosophical concepts. Theories of rationality, freedom, personal identity, and responsibility all impact children and their caregivers, yet often ignore them. Delving into philosophical theory and the practical issues of childhood, this course is of great importance not just to philosophers but to anyone who works with children, has children, or was once a child.
PHIL 3673 credits
Philosophy for CounsellorsPrerequisite(s): 45 university-level credits
This course is designed to enhance philosophical reasoning skills and increase knowledge of the content of philosophy in order to improve ability to deal with the issues and problems presented by patients and clients. The most successful methods in clinical psychology, psychotherapy, and counselling clinical methods, such as Rational Emotional Behavior Therapy, existential therapy, cognitive therapy, and Logo therapy, are largely fashioned after philosophy. Philosophical training is invaluable to clinical psychologists, therapists, and counsellors in their professional services to the public. This leaves them better prepared to deal with their clients' philosophical issues such as ethical decision-making, sorting out confused reasoning, coming to terms with religion, defining reality, and determining what it means to be a healthy person within society.
PHIL 3703 credits

Turning Data Into Action With 'Million-Dollar Blocks'
Certain truths about life in a neighborhood are readily apparent to people who live there, but less obvious to city and state officials. The Justice Mapping Center uses data to help bridge that gap with information about the prison system. By mapping the residential addresses of every inmate in various prison systems, Eric Cadora and his colleagues have made vividly clear a concept they call "Million-Dollar Blocks." In some places more than a million dollars are being spent every year to incarcerate the residents of a single Census block. Audie Cornish talks with Eric Cadora. One city is trying to put that information to good use. The push to create the Prison Reentry Initiative in New Haven, Connecticut, stemmed in part from Cadora's maps. When inmates from certain neighborhoods leave prison, there is an intensified effort to connect them with services to help them forge a new life.

Relaxing is all about getting your mind off of the stresses of life. Anything that will accomplish this can be helpful in making you feel calm and at peace. Here are some easy ways to feel more relaxed in your daily life.
Meditation can be a great way to relax, especially if you are under a lot of stress. Research has shown that meditation can be helpful in lowering heart rate and blood pressure, and even improving cognitive performance.
And meditation is pretty simple to do: just find a comfortable place, close your eyes, relax your muscles, and focus on one thing, whether it's your breathing, an object (a flower, or a painting)—or even a picture in your mind—perhaps you are sitting on a beach in the Caribbean. You can do this for as little as 10 minutes to experience benefits. The key is staying focused and not letting any distractions or thoughts enter your mind—being mindful is key. If you have a bit more time, take a Yoga or Tai Chi class—both incorporate mediation, along with physical movements.
Drink Green Tea
Green tea is very soothing—it contains theanine, an amino acid that gives flavor to green tea and also promotes relaxation. It is also thought that theanine is a caffeine antagonist, meaning it counters the stimulating effects of caffeine. So, drink green tea, and avoid caffeinated beverages, since caffeine can worsen the stress response.
Eat Mood-Boosting Foods
Many of us crave indulgent carbohydrates like cookies, candy, ice cream, pretzels, and other sweet and starchy foods when we're stressed, anxious, or tense. These foods can have a soothing effect in some women, and it may have something to do with low serotonin levels during these mood states. Serotonin is a brain chemical responsible for feelings of calmness and relaxation. It's thought that consuming these carbohydrates helps boost serotonin levels, which results in feelings of contentedness and relaxation. So, enjoy these treats if they provide some instant satisfaction, but do watch your portion sizes! I recommend 100 calorie portions—4 Hershey Kisses, or a small handful of pretzels. You may want to pre-portion out pretzels, for example, and take them with you as a snack when you leave the house. The 100-calorie packs work well too.
Create a Relaxation Room
Many spas have relaxation rooms to sit in before and after treatments, and it's a great thing to create at home too. A relaxation room doesn't have to be a "room" per se—it can be a space in your bedroom, for example, but the key is having an area or room at home, solely devoted to relaxing. You can have a really comfortable chair or daybed, with dim lights, or candles nearby— whatever it is that you enjoy and find relaxing. This will give you an opportunity to decompress, with very little stimulus—this is key. Forget the blackberry, cell phone and laptop—this is a time to kick back and relax. You might want to read a book or magazine, but the idea is to clear your mind of distractions and stressors.

Christmas is just more than a week away, so most Middle Tennesseans are probably in the thick of their holiday rituals: trimming the tree, wrapping gifts, mailing Christmas cards, stringing guitars and loading up the tour bus.
Yes, for many residents of Music City, it's just not the holidays unless they're performing the songs of the season on stage. This weekend's concert lineup features a flurry of local artists putting on holiday-themed shows everywhere, from neighborhood pubs to the city's most prestigious venues.
"It's a great time of year," says Vince Gill, whose 12 Days of Christmas tour with wife and Christian music star Amy Grant closes out its run with two nights at Ryman Auditorium next week.
"I get to go out and travel, ride the bus with Amy. We haven't seen each other all year long, it seems like. With touring and traveling, we've spent a lot of time apart. We first became friends through doing this kind of music, so it's kind of in our DNA in a really neat way."

En español | He wears a rosary around his neck, writes songs about love and landmines, and gets embarrassed about being named one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people. But sit and chat awhile with Juan Esteban Aristizábal and you tend to forget he's Colombian rock superstar Juanes.
Devoted to family, music and philanthropy, the composer whose songs have topped the charts all the way from Argentina to Belgium and beyond remains singularly down to earth — but with lofty goals.
"He's attractive to people of all ages," says Spanish singer Miguel Bosé, who often performs in concert with Juanes. "First, through his music, but more importantly, through his attitude toward life. He's a man who acts according to his principles, who is honest in everything he does. His strength lies in his faith."
A lofty description, but one that plays out in Juanes's life. His quest for peace is rooted in action. His desire to give back produces compassion, human rights and rehabilitation through his Mi Sangre (My Blood) Foundation, which helps poor Colombian children — primarily in rural areas — who are victims of landmines and war. "What I do is because life and music have led me to it," the singer says.
And his faith colors everything. "I come from a very, very Catholic family," he says. "We used to pray the rosary every day after dinner." Though he later questioned organized religion and searched for a personal definition of God, he retains his faith in prayer — "praying doesn't mean repeating a prayer" — and defines God as "something much larger than a human being, a powerful energy that is, in fact, love."
"What I do is because life and music have led me to it." —Juanes
His love for music, nurtured in a home filled with six kids, lots of singing and all types of instruments, transformed the shy boy into a singer with 17 Latin Grammys under his guitar strap and more than 12 million albums sold worldwide. "I was touched by the magic of music," Juanes says. "My way to communicate was through my guitar and music."
His dad, Javier Aristizábal, was the musical force in their home, giving him first an accordion, then a guitar to play, he says. Juanes recalls living as a child in Carolina del Príncipe, where his family raised cattle, owned a small market and rented out space for a bar. "Our bedroom was on top of the bar and every night, since I was very little, I would go to sleep and the music I heard until midnight was bar music — tangos, boleros," and the Colombian rhythms that later found their way into his own sound.
At 15, after moving to Medellín with his family, he and some friends formed Ekhymosis — much to his parents' dismay, who feared the band's rock and heavy metal sound and lyrics might be a bad influence. Eventually, he says, "I convinced them [music] was something serious for me."
His dad died 15 years ago, but his mom, Alicia Vásquez, 80, recalls her son's teen years: "He always played guitar in his free time, and other instruments, like the trumpet. What I most remember was his discipline and dedication."
As Colombia's drug and guerilla wars escalated in the '80s, the group's lyrics called for social change. "We didn't write love songs," Juanes says. "Rock was a way to vent." They also helped their community by raising funds and collecting books for schools.
Ekhymosis split up 12 years after they formed. Juanes headed to the United States on his own with $4,000 and his guitar, and ended up in Los Angeles. Alone in his apartment, he wrote more than 40 songs. "I came to know God, myself and many other things I needed to experience," he says. "I found a way to express myself as a soloist. I could talk about what I wanted, write what I wanted. But with freedom comes more responsibility.
One song, "Fíjate Bien," a cautionary tale about stepping on landmines, catapulted him to fame with fans and Colombian groups working with victims of war and other violence. "I wrote the song with no pretentions; it was just a song in the album," he says. "But when it became the single, all these people started to show up, the soldiers, the foundations, and I realized there was much to be done with music."

Bunch of lousy Fireman Ed wannabes.
Bunch of lousy Fireman Ed wannabes.
Add in the fact that the godawful decline came during a decade where we've seen the at-home viewing experience become exponentially better coupled with the economy tanking and you have a recipe for attendance disaster. They couldn't have chosen a worse decade to provide a **** product.
And what has their record been at home over that time? I don't have the numbers but it has been ****. I had season tickets from 06-10 and they lost a ton of home game over that span.
Mariners are last because Japan stopped being a fan.
Havent Been to the Playoffs since 2008
Havent won a playoff game since 2000
Havent been to the conf championship since 1992
Havent been to the super bowl since 1984
Havent won the super bowl since 1973
Its been a long time since this franchise has been relevant. This is part of our problem. Dare I say a big part.
Wow, that's a big surprise. You have to wonder why people don't go see our team lose a whole lot more than win. I truly believe that Dolphins fans are as much die hard as any other group of fans. There's a lot to do in Miami tho and all that losing it's not going to bring the fans in. In GB people have nothing else to do and nowhere else to go so they go even if they lose. Our fans are out there waiting a return to the glory days. Start winning in a consisten basis and the fans will support the team. Keep on mind the economy is bad and now we know it's going to stay bad for at least 4 more years....lol
Ozzy rules!!
The really sad thing is that this is because of NFL policy. This state can not support three teams. Jacksonville was a really bad idea.
A true fan sticks with their team through good and bad times. They don't jump ship and not show up until their team starts winning. That mentality is ridiculous. Either you're with the Dolphins or your against the Dolphins. It's that simple. There's no riding the fence.
Please God, let me see 1 Dolphins Superbowl victory before I die.
The sad thing is, the bandwagon fans are necessary to keep those numbers up.

Quince Orchard High School defensive lineman Adam McLean has noticed opponents increasingly running away from his side of the field.
He takes pride in that, but it also frustrates him to constantly chase the action rather than participate.
So, facing a cut block that kept him from the backfield and seeing the ballcarrier a few feet to his right, McLean knew he had a rare opportunity. McLean lunged over the blocker and reached with his long arms to tackle the running back for a short loss.
"Any time I see the ballcarrier or I'm just in the vicinity of the ballcarrier, I'm just trying to make a play," McLean said.
McLean added a fourth-down sack later the game and No. 1 Quince Orchard beat Bethesda-Chevy Chase 49-0 Saturday at Montgomery Blair High School in Silver Spring. The game was played there so it could be played on artifical turf instead of a muddy field.
Quince Orchard has posted three straight shutouts, held its opponent scoreless for the last 15 quarters and allowed just 13 points all season. Only Class 1A's Forestville, which has surrendered 12 points but has yet to play its Week 6 game (Monday at Surrattsville), has allowed fewer points among Maryland's public-school teams.
McLean — whose scholarships offers include Florida State University, Virginia Tech, Nebraska, Mississippi, North Carolina State, Boston College, Michigan State, Iowa and Maryland — has certainly helped Quince Orchard's defensive dominance.
"Adam is a good player," Quince Orchard coach Dave Mencarini said. "But I don't know if he's worth running away from all the time"
That's because Mencarini has so much faith in his entire defense.
John Ten Eyck, in particular stepped up opposite McLean on Saturday. After rotating in as a backup last season, Ten Eyck is starting at defensive end, and his sack on the game's second play set a tone for Quince Orchard holding Bethesda-Chevy Chase to just two total rushing yards.
"This is John's chance, and he's made the most of it," Mencarini said. "I'm proud of him."
Offensively, Quince Orchard cruised, as well.
Kevin Joppy ran for three touchdowns. Mike Murtaugh threw a 60-yard touchdown pass to Preston Bampoe-Addo, earning running clock late in the first half, and ran for another score. Kyle Green added a fourth-quarter touchdown run that gave Quince Orchard points on all seven of its possessions before taking a knee to end the game.
Quince Orchard (6-0) is now 23-0 against 4A South teams since moving into the region in 2011, winning by an average score of 43-5.
"We did what we needed to do," Ten Eyck said. "We set ourselves apart from the other teams in Montgomery County by not letting them get close to us. We're at the top, and that's how it's going to be."
Quince Orchard has eliminated Bethesda-Chevy Chase in the playoffs the last two seasons. Now, Quince Orchard might have dealt a crucial blow to Bethesda-Chevy Chase's hopes of extending its already-program-long postseason streak to three seasons.
"I was a little disappointed, not with the outcome, but with the effort," Bethesda-Chevy Chase coach Josh Singer said. "We had a great week of practice, preparing for this game. Unfortunately, we didn't do the things that we were doing in practice that could have made this a competitive game."
Bethesda-Chevy Chase (2-4, 20 playoff points) is now eighth in the 4A West Region, though Singer is optimistic. He views Quince Orchard, Gaithersburg and Northwest as the clear class of the region thus far, leaving one playoff berth up for grabs.
"As far as that fourth spot is concerned, anything can happen," Singer said.

Since starting the Refinery29 Instagram account a year ago, I have to admit that I've become completely obsessed. It's the first thing I look at on my phone when I wake up, and between posting to the R29 account and my own personal one, I find myself thinking about post-worthy images, a lot.But what's more exciting to me is the fact that I actually feel like Instagram has changed the way I see the world. I'm looking at the details now…in the gutters, on walls, in the sky, and especially at people's feet and nails. I follow a lot of people, so it was tough for me to narrow my favorites down to a list of just 10 — but somehow, I managed to edit things down to the very best of the best. After considering the frequency of posts, the uniqueness of each user's point of view, how they were shot (yes, I'm an iPhone-only purist!), and the overall radness of their photos, I came up with my list of the top people to follow on Instagram. So, fire up those iPhones, and click on through!

The term "heat island" describes built up areas that are hotter than nearby rural areas. The annual mean air temperature of a city with 1 million people or more can be 1.8–5.4°F (1–3°C) warmer than its surroundings. In the evening, the difference can be as high as 22°F (12°C). Heat islands can affect communities by increasing summertime peak energy demand, air conditioning costs, air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, heat-related illness and mortality, and water quality.
Communities can take a number of common-sense measures to reduce the effects of summertime heat islands. This website provides information on the heat island effect, its impacts, and the strategies that communities can take to reduce urban temperatures. Of the information available to communities, key EPA resources include a compendium of mitigation strategies, a community action database, and regularly scheduled webcasts.
