Congressman Jones accurately foretold that whatever the conspirators had intended, "it will redound to their own disgrace." Men who had spoken belittlingly of the commander in chief would later deny they had ever held him in anything but the highest regard. Gates soon tried to effect a reconciliation with Washington, but his attempt was rebuffed. Congress later removed him from the Board of War and assigned him to a succession of field commands. His reputation as a military hero would soon come to grief in South Carolina where, at the Battle of Camden on August 16, 1780, his troops were routed by the British. During a hasty retreat, Gates' undisguised anxiety for his own personal safety made him an object of ridicule among his men. "The general's frantic dash from the scene," says historian John Ferling, "proved his ruination."
Mifflin also suffered a measure of disgrace. Charged with having contributed to the troops' hardships at Valley Forge through mismanagement of funds as quartermaster general, he was forced to resign from the Board of War. He denied conspiring against Washington, insisting he had always "dearly loved and greatly admired" him.
As for Conway, who was scarcely the most significant figure in the Conway Cabal—despite the name by which it became known—Congress acted with crushing decisiveness. Still denied a senior command in the army, he offered his resignation April 1778 and was surprised when it was accepted. Before returning to France, he wrote Washington "You are in my eyes the great and the good man. May you long enjoy the love, veneration and esteem of these States, whose liberties you have asserted by your virtues." In that, at least, his wish would be realized.
Historians disagree over the significance of the attacks on Washington. In his monumental biography of Washington, Douglas S. Freeman stated that "the imperative reason for defeating [the cabal] was to keep the Army and the country united in the hard battle for freedom." But Ferling tends to minimize its importance. "I don't really think the cabal existed as an organized conspiracy," he says. "It existed more in Washington's mind than in reality." Certainly, Washington was convinced that a "malignant faction" had conspired to remove him. So, too, was Patrick Henry, who, along with others, feared for the patriot cause if such efforts had succeeded. Whatever the strength of those who considered Washington a liability, it is impossible to calculate the consequences for the Continental army, the American Revolution and the embryonic United States of America had their sentiments found greater resonance in Congress—and forced or provoked the man who would later be called the Father of the Country to resign his command.

The nation's supply of homes in some stage of foreclosure plummeted 23% in March, declining from 1.5 million housing units a year earlier to 1.1 million distressed properties, CoreLogic said in a new report Tuesday.
Completed foreclosures also declined 16% to 55,000 units from 66,000 a year earlier. Despite foreclosure filings dropping year-over-year, the number of completed foreclosure actions actually rose 6% from February to March, rising from 52,000 a month earlier.
Still, the overall trend is for foreclosures to decline each year.
"In March, completed foreclosures were down 52% from the peak in 2010, and almost all of the top 100 major metropolitan areas have declining foreclosure rates," said Mark Fleming, chief economist for CoreLogic (CLGX).
"The foreclosure rate nationally is down 23% relative to a year ago, signaling continued reduction in the stock of distressed assets."
While foreclosures are falling, the number still remains high when compared to real estate cycles established before the 2007 market downturn.
From the years 2000 through 2006, the nation averaged roughly 21,000 foreclosures per month.
Since the onset of the crisis, CoreLogic estimates 4.2 million homes have been lost to foreclosure.
The five states with the highest number of completed foreclosures in March included Florida with 103,000 foreclosures, followed by California (83,000), Michigan (70,000), Texas (53,000) and Georgia (48,000).
The states with the highest foreclosure inventory rate based on the percentage of all mortgaged homes includes Florida, which boasts a 9.7% foreclosure inventory rate.
New Jersey comes in second with a 7.3% foreclosure inventory rate, while New York, Maine and Illinois maintain foreclosure inventory rates between 4.4% and 5%.

Freshman point guard Derrick Jasper of Kentucky hit a three-point shot late in the second half to send his teammates into a frenzy, and then he hung on to defeat Josh Ship of UCLA, 13-11, to capture the NCAA March Madness 07 Videogame Tournament at the Hyatt Regency Maui on Saturday.
Jasper, a freshman from Paso Robles, Calif., connected on a long three with just over a minute remaining to go up 11-7. The two players then exchanged baskets before Ship made it close off a put-back in the final seconds. But on the in-bounds play Jasper held the ball to run out the clock and preserve the win. He was named the best videogame player at the Maui Invitational.
Jasper, who once played on an EA Sports-sponsored AAU team, wasn't challenged in any game until the final contest, posting three straight blow-out victories to reach the final. Jasper defeated Joey Dorsey of Memphis, 20-8, in one semifinal after wins over Sean Caddell of Chaminade (35-11) and Karron Clarke of DePaul (23-10).
The other semifinal was closer and featured Ship carving out a narrow 16-10 win over Brad Sheenan of Georgia Tech. Spurred on by UCLA head coach Ben Howland, who stood on a chair to cheer on his sophomore guard, and the rest of the Bruins tightly packed around the participants, Ship was able to break Sheenan's 1-2-2 press in the second half to out-score Sheenan 8-2 in the final period.
Each of the eight teams participating in the 2006 EA SPORTS Maui Invitational selected two representatives to compete in the NCAA March Madness 07 Videogame Tournament, using a pre-final version of NCAA March Madness 07 for the Xbox 360. Players were matched up against their actual first-round opponents of the Maui Invitational, playing 2 three minutes halves. Players had to use their actual teams in the game and games were played in the virtual Lahaina Civic Center.
Ship reached the final after an opening game 21-18 victory over Zach Whiting of Chaminade, a former EA Sports intern, and a 21-11 win over Wesley Green of DePaul.
The videogame tournament is an annual prelude to the EA Sports Maui Invitational college basketball tournament that opened today.

Wellwood-Couturier-Ford 12/22
Each of them scored a goal -- Ford got his first -- and Couturier added two assists to post his eighth multi-point game of the year. He's back up to a point-per-game pace now with 26 through 26 games.
"I think we're finding some good chemistry with each other," Couturier said. "We're finding each other well out there. Things are going our way and hopefully things keep going well."
Couturier scored on a bizarre play to get Adirondack's wheels turning early in the first period. At the tail end of a Bridgeport power play, he stole the puck from a defender at the blue line and sped down the right wing. Brandon DeFazio slid to knock it away from him, but Couturier tracked it down in the corner. Then, in one quick motion, he spun and fired it toward the slot. He said he was looking for Brayden Schenn, but instead it wound up deflecting in off Bridgeport' Aaron Ness for a 1-0 lead.
"It's not an unusual play," Phantoms coach Terry Murray said. "You're going to see those kinds of decisions made all of the time. You're just hoping something good happens, whether the puck goes in the net or somebody's driving through and there's something loose in front of the crease. It's always the right decision to make a play to go to the net and this time it happened to find a way in."
In the second period, Ford redirected Couturier's shot from the point through goalie Anders Nilsson's legs. He had a pretty emphatic celebration, but he was happy to finally get one after going without in his first 16 games. Murray hoped this is what he needed to finally get back into his old form.
"I thought that was a really good shift for us," Ford said. "Wellwood was buzzing around and Coots just a simple shot on net. ... Coots can move the puck really well, create a lot of opportunities."
That's what happened on the third goal. The center got a pass from Jeff Dimmen and took it behind the net, centering it to Wellwood who had basically an empty net to shoot at and buried it. He had one goal in his first 21 games, but has now scored two in his past three. He could be heating up too.
But then again, the same can be said of the entire Phantoms team. They've now won three in a row, which matches a season high. They're also getting bounces to go their way: tonight they scored three goals on 18 shots, while Bridgeport had two on just 36. Credit to Scott Munroe, who played well against his former team. All told, it's a pretty good way for a team to enter the holiday break.
"The guys came focused," Murray said. "It's very easy at this time of the year to have concentration that might be other places -- what are you going to be doing in two days and travel I have tomorrow and all that. We couldn't allow even four percent off on our focus. We had to be right on to play the right way and everybody did a great job with it."
However, is the timing of the break a bad thing? They'll basically forget about hockey for the next few days while they spend time with their families, then reconvene and take on Providence Friday.
"We saw last week or two weeks ago that we were last in our conference," Couturier said. "We knew if we wanted to make the playoffs that we had to make a push from now on. We've been playing some pretty desperate hockey lately and we've put a couple wins on the board. That'll put us right back in the race."
Regarding Ben Holmstrom's knee injury, which will keep him out four-to-six months, Murray said he'll reconsider naming a new captain because of the length of the recovery time. "I think we need one," he said. He'll talk it over with the coaching staff. I'll ask again after the holiday break.
Check out tomorrow's paper for the game report and a holiday feature on some of the Phantoms, including Munroe. This will be his first Christmas as a father.
Finally, a non-hockey bit of news. You'll recall how the Sound Tigers wore the names of the Sandy Hook Elementary School victims on the back of their jerseys tonight? Well, they also displayed the names of the fallen teachers and faculty on the scoreboard the entire night next to a green ribbon. I saw Murray and assistant coaches Riley Cote and Kjell Samuelsson also wore the ribbons.
One of the routes you can take from Glens Falls to Bridgeport goes straight through Newtown. It's the way I went and I got a little choked up just being there. Some of the Phantoms staffers also made the trip down and went the same way.
They left this stuffed Dax at the Town Hall with the following note: "The Adirondack Phantoms send their condolences to the victims, their families and the Newtown community."
Until next time,

Lady Dragons earn school's third state title in five
It looked to be a runaway from the start,
but Saturday's state Class A championship final turned out to
be anything but.
Jefferson's Lady Dragons recovered from a 12-point second-quarter
deficit to defeat the Lady Wolves of Wesleyan 55-52 to claim
the 2001 girls' state crown.
Wesleyan pulled out to an early 20-9 lead in the opening frame,
though a trio of crisp passes down the lane from Staci Childress
to Sunny Bush and Lee DuBose resulted in six quick points that
closed the gap to 22-15 by quarter's end.
"They sure had me worried in the first quarter," head
coach Kevin Jacobs said afterward. "We knew they'd come
out and hit some three pointers, but we didn't expect them to
hit that many." Wesleyan hit six shots from behind the line
in the first half.
Jefferson showed great patience in the second, passing around
the perimeter to open someone up. Melinda Floyd turned out to
be that someone, the junior wing hitting three three-point shots
in the period. Still, the Wolves held a five-point lead at the
Quarter three was the magic one for Jefferson. Jefferson's full-court
press held the Wesleyan offense in check, and the Wolves put
only two points on the board and came up with only one offensive
rebound. Wesleyan missed five shots from the paint, and in the
midst of the quarter gave up four straight turnovers.
Meanwhile, the Lady Dragons hit seven of 13 shots in the period
to take a 46-36 lead into the final quarter. Jefferson's technical
game was superb in the closing minutes, with several plays that
ran so smoothly, they looked as if they'd leapt off the chalkboard.
Wesleyan pressed hard in the fourth, and the tactic paid off
for the Wolves, though not as well as it had earlier for Jefferson.
The Lady Dragons missed two uncontested layups in the fourth
quarter, but DuBose put seven of her team's nine on the board
to maintain a slim edge.
Wesleyan's shooting remained suspect, but the Wolves' press managed
to pick off four of Jefferson's inbound passes in the quarter.
With a minute left and Jefferson up by seven, Nikki Luckhurst
tipped away an inbound pass and threw to Dana Birnie for an easy
two points. After a foul and a missed Lady Dragon free throw
attempt, Luckhurst found the basket from outside for three points
at the 27-second mark to make it a two-point game.
Guard Jenny Hall tipped another inbound pass away and picked
up the loose ball after a mad dash, but DuBose intercepted Hall's
pass across court and was fouled. DuBose hit the first of her
one-and-one foul shots, leaving Wesleyan plenty of time to set
up for a tying three-pointer.
The Lady Wolves rushed their shot a bit, and missed from three-point
range. Jefferson senior Ashley Evans fought for the rebound under
the basket, resulting in a jump ball. The possession arrow pointed
to Jefferson, with only two seconds remaining.
DuBose inbounded underneath the Wesleyan basket. Head coach Kevin
Jacobs had instructed DuBose to throw the ball as deep down court
as possible, and the junior followed the command. The ball was
picked off, and Wesleyan had one last chance to tie, but the
shot was taken late and missed the basket.
"We could probably play them 10 times, and it would come
out 5-5," Jacobs said of Wesleyan. "Today was just
our day. Our heart and our guts and our hustle have brought us
a long way."
DuBose had 22 points in the game. Melinda Floyd scored 14, and
Annie Goza 12.

If the Leopard's last three games are any indication of how the
rest of their games will go, they could be in for a good season.
Banks County scored 43 runs in their last three games while giving
up only 11.
"We came out hitting it," Leopard head coach Mike Williams
said. "I'm fairly pleased with the way we hit the ball."
The team combined for a .429 batting average over its first three
games. The Leopards have also hit five home runs.
Banks' next test will come Saturday in a doubleheader at Jackson
County beginning at 11 a.m.
On Monday, the Leopard's all-important region schedule will open
up against first-year school Apalachee.
"Jackson County will be a big game for us," Williams
said. "They'll be good and competitive. They're the best
team we'll see outside of the region. We feel like we can beat
them, so hopefully we can come out with a victory. But our main
focus is the region play."
As Banks County moves into its region schedule, the team will
have a chance to look at its past few games to find areas that
need work.
"Defensively we have not had a lot of opportunities to field
the ball," Williams said. "We've made some errors.
Our defense played OK, but they haven't been tested."
As for pitching, all three of Banks' hurlers saw time on the
mound last week.
"We saw several different guys throw and, for the most part,
we're pretty pleased with what we've seen," Williams said.
"We saw a little control problem against Lakeview, but some
of them may be nervous these first few games."
So far, the Leopards have posted a 2.72 ERA and have given up
seven earned runs. At the same time, Banks County has recorded
30 strikeouts.
"I'd much rather see folks swinging than walking to first
base," Williams said.
Bats Hot, Gloves Cold
For Baseball Tigers
The hitting is there and the pitching
is coming around, but if the Commerce Tiger baseball team doesn't
find some defense, it'll be a long season.
Three games into the 2001 campaign, the 1-2 Tigers have committed
17 errors. In the process, they beat Athens Christian last Thursday
9-7 in Commerce, but dropped a doubleheader Saturday to Banks
County, 12-2 and 9-7.
"We made, in two games, 13 errors, which severely handicapped
us," pointed out coach David Cash. "We're not a good
enough hitting team or good enough pitching team to give that
many errors. We can't afford to give four outs in an inning,
but sometimes it felt like we were giving five or six."
The Tigers were scheduled to take on Athens Academy today (Wednesday)
at 4:30 at home.
"They're a pretty good team. I hope our errors will take
care of themselves. Our hitting is adequate, our pitching is
coming around, but our defense is still suspect," Cash concluded.
In the Athens Christian contest, the game went back and forth.
Athens Christian took a 1-0 lead in the top of the first, but
Commerce went up 4-1 in the bottom of the second. The Spartans
added a run in the top of the third, but Commerce answered with
three in the bottom of the inning. The Spartans scored three
in the fifth and one in the seventh, but the Tigers added two
in the fifth to preserve the win, picking up 12 hits along the
Freshman Casha Daniels, who pitched an inning and a third without
giving up a run, got the win. Dane Cotrell pitched two innings,
Steven Bihss worked, and Chad Jordan and Brody Bearden also pitched.
"We wanted to get a lot of people some pitches, and we were
real pleased with all of the pitching," said Cash, "Casha
Daniels especially. He came in in the top of the third, got the
out, then retired all three batters he faced in the fourth inning."
On offense, Kevin Wilson had a pair of doubles and two runs batted
in. Charlie Epps had two hits and two RBIs, Jordan had a pair
of hits and one RBI and Craig Henderson and Cotrell each had
a pair of hits.
Cotrell pitched two innings and gave up seven runs on five hits
to take the loss, but he wasn't exactly supported by the Tigers'
offense or defense.
Banks County scored two runs in the first, five in the second,
three in the fifth and two in the sixth, while the Tigers' two
runs all came in the fourth inning. Commerce managed but three
hits, while making seven errors.
Bihss pitched three innings, giving up three runs on four hits,
and Henderson went two-thirds of an inning, giving up two runs
on two hits.
Henderson's two-RBI single in the fourth was the highlight of
the Tiger offense.
A seven-run second inning gave the Leopards a 9-2 lead and all
the runs they needed to sweep the twin bill.
The Tigers made it interesting with four runs in the seventh
inning, but the rally came up short.
Daniels took the loss for Commerce, giving up eight runs and
six hits in one complete inning. Bearden worked five innings,
giving up only one run on four hits.
Adam Stephenson had a solo homer and two RBIs, and Jordan picked
up an RBI for the Tigers in the only offensive highlights.
Jackson County 3-1 after first week of play
AFTER their first week of play, the Jackson County baseball team
is off to a solid start at 3-1.
The Panthers will take on Banks County and Rabun County Saturday,
beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday will also mark the team's annual
barbecue. Though tickets were presold, head coach Rusty Hendricks
indicated this week that there will likely be several chickens
left over for late-comers. The price is $5 per plate.
Lakeview will welcome the Panthers next Wednesday at 4:30 p.m.,
and the team's region schedule is set to begin March 23 at 5:30
p.m. at home against Monroe Area.
Tim Whisnant put up a no-hitter during last Wednesday's 6-0 blanking
of Apalachee. Whisnant faced 26 batters over seven innings, and
gave up only two walks.
"Tim had a good game," Hendricks said, "and we
played solid defense." The Panthers yielded only two errors
in the game.
Michael Savadge had the hot bat, with a home run, a double and
four runs batted in. Whisnant added a double to his spectacular
pitching performance, and Cody Fortson came through with a key
Blake Wilson kept his batting average perfect, with one hit and
a walk. Wilson was also hit by a pitch.
Jackson County split a doubleheader Saturday with Social Circle.
The Panthers won game one 9-1, behind strong pitching from Trey
McConnell. McConnell recorded eight strikeouts in the game, and
gave up only one walk and three hits.
Savadge continued to carry a hot bat, with a home run and a double.
"He's on fire right now," Hendricks said.
Fortson added a home run, Whisnant two doubles, and Wilson and
Michael Hill also doubled.
Lee Reese came through with a double and a sacrifice.
"We played a good solid game. Everybody did their part up
and down the lineup. We totally dominated the game offensively
and defensively."
Game two was a different story, with the Redskins winning 4-0.
Hendricks gave his bench players extensive playing time in the
"We didn't swing the bat well in that game. We could have
won, but we still felt good about what we've got going on. The
main thing is that we got Michael Savadge on the mound."
In his first pitching performance since a Christmas auto accident
that injured his pitching shoulder, Savadge struck out seven
and walked three in six innings. He gave up five hits, but only
one earned run.
"He didn't get a lot of defensive help," Hendricks
said. Jackson County committed six errors in the game.
"He felt confident afterward, and he didn't have any pain,
other than the normal arm tiredness. That was a big plus for
us. We don't like the errors, but we feel good about the starting
mix we've got out there.
"We feel real good about how hard the guys are working,
and our chemistry is good. We're still working toward the region
schedule. If we can get everybody back to 100 percent health,
we'll be able to compete."
1981 season was the peak of a remarkable MCHS girls' basketball
The old banner that hangs from the Madison County gym ceiling
is lifeless to those who don't know the stories behind the cloth.
But for many in this community, the 1981 Lady Raider state championship
banner signifies a part of their life that will never be forgotten.
They recall that some 1,500 Madison County faithful made the
trek to the Macon Coliseum March 14, 1981 - 20 years to this
day - to watch the Lady Raiders whip Teresa Edwards and the Cairo
Lady Syrupmakers 50-34, ending a magical 30-0 season.
They remember the trophy presentation, the smiles and hugs, shouts
of elation, the ride home, ending with fire trucks setting off
their hoses as the bus entered the school. Then a red carpet
was laid out for the victors as they got off the bus.
Sheila Collins, one of the top girls' players in the history
of girls' basketball in Georgia, averaged 33 points per game
that year for Madison County. She was the stuff of legend - still
And on that historic March day Collins outplayed the future Olympian
in one of the best matchups imaginable. Madison County entered
the contest at 29-0. Cairo was 30-0.
The Syrupmakers had a height advantage. But neither Collins nor
her teammates were intimidated. And why should they be? The Lady
Raiders had lost just nine games over the previous three years.
And with her team up 25-22 at intermission, Collins took the
floor again after halftime, knowing the day was Madison County's.
"I told Becky Porterfield when we came back on the court,
'We're not going to lose,'" said Collins, who finished the
game with 29 points to Edwards' 14.
Collins' dominance over Edwards typified the year for the star
and her team. Consider that the closest the Lady Raiders came
to a loss was a seven-point, 68-61 win over Forsyth County in
the second game of the season. Consider that the Lady Raiders
averaged 70.9 points per game, while allowing just 39.8 points
per contest.
But on a broader scale, the 1981 season typified the times in
Lady Raider basketball. The championship season was the pinnacle
of a Madison County era of dominance under head coach C. Leon
Fitzpatrick, whose teams were 209-41 between 1976 and 1984. Fitzpatrick
retired from the position with the highest winning percentage
(83.6 percent) among active girls' coaches in Georgia at that
Madison County advanced to the state semifinals six times during
that run, making the state finals in 1978, 1979 and 1981.
Fitzpatrick said the 1981 squad was "not as talented as
the 78-79 team," but "they were a little more focused."
He added that the team had great senior leadership.
"They were an exceptional group of girls," said Fitzpatrick.
"They were just regular kids off the floor but very professional
on the court."
Fitzpatrick remembers how Becky and Beth Porterfield played solid
defense, how Lori Kinney could nail the outside shot, how Beverly
Johnson was "a good inside player to be only 5'9."
There were other players who contributed, too: Patsy Jones, Natalie
Allen, Latana Fitts, Lari Brown, Tammie Whitsel and Donna Arndt.
And Collins was, of course, amazing.
"She (Collins) could play the whole game - inside, outside,"
said Fitzpatrick. "She could go over big people. Her jump
shot was near perfect form. She had the kind of shot you don't
teach - picture book."
Collins, whose best game that year was a 57-point effort against
Franklin County, smiles when she speaks of one occasion in 1981
when her coach wasn't so happy with her.
She said her aunt wanted to take her to Atlanta to get her hair
done. But that meant skipping practice. So Collins told her coach
that she had to make a doctor's visit due to an illness. She
came back to school with a new hairdo.
"Which doctor?" the coach asked.
"I couldn't lie any more," said Collins.
So Fitzpatrick punished his star, benching her for the first
quarter in the showdown with Franklin County in the sub-region
tournament. A loss would have ended the season for the Lady Raiders.
"There were all these recruiters there to see me and I was
sitting on the bench," said Collins, who scored 29 points
after she entered the game in the second quarter. "My hair
looked great, but my aunt was having a fit."
But the recruiters noticed the girl with pretty hair. And Collins
went on to star at Tennessee, bouncing back from a knee injury
early in her college career with an All-America season as a senior.
Also in 1985, Collins was named SEC tournament MVP after scoring
95 total points in three tournament games. Following college,
Collins played professional ball in Italy and Germany.
Collins said she remembers the SEC MVP and the 1981 state championship
as the two most special moments in her basketball career.
"Playing in college was different than playing in high school,"
said Collins. "I enjoyed playing in high school because
it was so innocent. You just played because you wanted to. It
was a county effort. It pulled everybody together. I wouldn't
trade that for anything in the world."
Of all the coaches she's had, she remembers Fitzpatrick as one
of the best.
"He was very fundamental," said Collins of her high
school coach. "He was one of the most fundamental coaches
I've ever played for. He was very specific about what you were
supposed to do and when....Coach was able to make players accept
whatever role they had. I had to accept my role humbly."
Latana (Fitts) Coile, who now serves as an assistant varsity
girls' basketball coach at MCHS, recalls how the team dressed
alike and how the team motto was the popular song of the day,
"We are family." She said much of the team unity came
from Fitzpatrick.
"He (Fitzpatrick) was real big on being a team," said
Coile. "He knew what roles people could play....Our team
chemistry was really unique."
Coile said the coach was more advanced than his counterparts
of the day.
"Coach Fitzpatrick was a little ahead of the game with what
we were doing defensively with the man-to-man and also with the
fast break," said Coile. "He was doing things that
coaches in the late 1980s and early 1990s began to do. Our style
was a little ahead of most people."
Fitzpatrick said the moments on the court were made much brighter
because of the strong support of the community. The former coach
recalls the dedicated fans - like Gerald and Glenda Jordan, Hoppy
and Patsy Royston, Alvin and Geraldine Stamps and Al Stone -
who rarely, if ever, missed a game.
And he remembers how the team was "mobbed" by fans
when it returned from Macon after the championship. The gym was
full of people cheering and waving banners.
"It was like a game was going on in there," said Fitzpatrick.
But perhaps the biggest reward for Fitzpatrick extends beyond
the 1981 season and has taken years to realize.
"All of these girls have been successful in life,"
said Fitzpatrick proudly.
And that success touched the Lady Raiders this season, as coach
Coile helped the Lady Raiders reach the state's Elite 8.
Coile said she still looks up from the sidelines at the banner
and reflects on the special moments of 1981.
"When you go in the gym and look up at that banner, there's
a sense of pride," said Coile. "It still moves you
20 years later. There's still a spark inside."
Two players on the 1981 state championship team have family ties
with this year's Lady Raiders. Lori Kinney's niece Sheena Mason
played for this year's team. Sheila Collins' niece Ashley Collins
also played for the 2000-2001 Lady Raiders.

Spanning more than a dozen core titles and a quarter of a century, Final Fantasy's musical roots are nearly unparalleled. Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, Square Enix's new Chocobo-fueled release for 3DS, aims to draw upon this rich musical legacy to create something of a celebratory rhythm RPG hybrid. The merging of these two genres is ambitious, to say the least. The result of this fusion is a rich and wholly enjoyable rhythm experience, albeit one that doesn't utilize its RPG roots to the fullest.
Like most music games on DS systems, Theatrhythm's gameplay largely amounts to tapping and sliding the stylus on the touch screen. That said, the developers went to great lengths to keep players engaged with a variety of different play options. Theatrhythm is split into three different types of gameplay, each defined by the pacing of the songs. Battle Music Stages feature a faster beat, and task players with defeating as many enemies as possible by correctly responding to the given rhythm "triggers" (the circular prompts that tell you how and when to tap and slide) that scroll across the screen along four separate lines. Field Music Stages are a bit slower, and have the player moving the stylus up and down along a continuously flowing line - similar to a conductor's baton controlling the beat of the song. And lastly, Event Music Stages revolve around an important moment in each Final Fantasy game. Rather than the triggers scrolling from the left as they do in the other two stage types, here they consume the entire top screen, forcing you to keep a close watch at all times.
For Theatrhythm's visual presentation, Square faced the interesting challenge of trying to effectively bind 25 years of wildly varying graphical styles into one cohesive package. The result is the "chibi-fication" of the franchise's most notable characters. Small, stylized versions of Squall, Cloud, Lightning and Cecil - along with chibi Chocobos, Moogles, Summons, enemies, and the like - all populate the colorful world of Theatrhythm. Depending on the mode, the background will feature a bright, scrolling world (the chibi take on the FF universe), actual in-game cutscenes, or bits of gameplay. While it's a shame the Field segments all use the same background, the whole production offers an amazing, unique tribute to the franchise, an experience that should prove quite nostalgic for longtime fans of the series. The only downside here is that the footage is often repeated over the course of a song, which takes away from the otherwise great presentation.
As a music game, Theatrhythm is top notch, with varied play options, great backgrounds and just about the best song selection you could ask for. The developers also incorporate some RPG elements, which FF fans should be rather familiar with. After choosing a party of four, your chibi team of notable FF characters marches into battle. If you miss a trigger or execute one poorly, the team's shared HP bar goes down. If that hits zero, it's game over, meaning you'll have to start that segment over from the beginning. You can equip your team with an item, like a potion or Phoenix Down, which will automatically be used once certain conditions are met. Each character also has customizable abilities, such as Weapon Break (which reduces enemy attack power) or HP Up (which increases your HP).
The incorporation of RPG elements could have set Theatrhythm apart from other music games in a meaningful way, but unfortunately these aspects aren't as integral to the experience as you'd think. While leveling up in a rhythm game is a fun notion, in truth, playing with a level 1 character feels no different than playing with a level 65 one. Having a higher level simply allows you to get more and rarer items by defeating more enemies, but the items themselves don't do much either. Items and abilities may come in handy when you're trying to survive a particularly grueling song on the highest difficulty, allowing you to make it to the end and get a higher score, but most of the time their presence makes no tangible difference in how you actually play the game. In fact, they're completely optional (you even get a point bonus for not using items or abilities), further adding to the feeling that their presence was a bit forced. Theatrhythm is still an incredibly fun music game even considering the somewhat bizarre RPG integration, but it's a shame more wasn't done with this fusion concept.
One of the best parts of Theatrhythm is how it offers something for everyone. Music game novices can stick to the Basic Score of each song and simply enjoy the music and the backgrounds, while those looking for more of a challenge have the Expert Score and the blisteringly hard Ultimate Score to flex their skills. Each song also features a practice mode so you can work on getting to the end without worrying about your HP.
The fun isn't just limited to the main game either. In addition to having three difficulty settings for each of the three songs for 13 Final Fantasy games to master, there's also a Chaos Shrine where you can collect Dark Note rhythm challenges. These are additional songs of varying difficulty that you can complete alone or play with up to three friends locally. Extra touches like additional characters (unlocked by collecting special shards from bosses), the ability to swap stats via StreetPass, and the Museum (where you can unlock cards, music tracks and movies) give Theatrhythm plenty of bang for its buck. Overall, the game is a more than fitting celebration for the franchise's 25th anniversary.
The Verdict
Whether you're a huge Final Fantasy fan or just enjoy great rhythm games with fantastic music, Theatrhythm Final Fantasy is certainly for you. Although the RPG elements feel a bit wasted, the varied gameplay options, scaled difficulty settings, and plethora of unlockable goodies still make for an excellent rhythm experience.

Monday, September 21, 2015
As part of its recently released Blueprint for Collective Action for the Arts initiative, Cincinnati-based United Arts Fund, ArtsWave, has announced its' new strategy will allocate funding based on five community goals.
These goals include: to attract talent and position Cincinnati as a competitive region; to promote diversity and cross cultural understanding; to strengthen the vivacity of neighborhood communities; to broaden arts engagement opportunities for children in the region; and to draw young adults under the age of 40 into the folds of the arts community, deepening appreciation and interaction for the community.
This new approach will first identify community needs and then strategically focus grants where the needs align with these aforementioned goals.
As opposed to seeing proposals from organizations and thinking "'what do the arts need?', the strategy emphasizes the question, 'what does the community need?'" said Alecia Kintner, ArtsWave's CEO.
The hope is that this method, taking effect in the 2016 grants cycle, will sustain long term impact. In order to facilitate this conceptual transformation, ArtsWave will introduce two new online features.
First, the launch of new website in September, CincyArtsGuide.com acts as a resource for locals to find regional arts programming and up-to-date events. In October, ArtsWave will release a geo-mapping feature that provides a layout of each neighborhoods' arts education network with sorting filters to view various demographics and economic groups as well.
The chief impact strategy manager for ArtsWave, Tara Townsend, describes the intent of these new web features, "to see […] the integral role that arts and culture plays in our region in a highly visual and interactive way."

Best Cellars Opens New Store Directly Above Food Emporium Supermarket In New YorkNovember 16, 2012
This coming Monday, wine and spirits retailer Best Cellars will open a new location directly above a Food Emporium supermarket on Third Avenue between 68th and 69th Streets in Manhattan. Food Emporium and Best Cellars are both owned by Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. (A&P).
While A&P said "there is no connection to the grocery store," the new Best Cellars will be located at street level directly above the Food Emporium, which is in the basement. A&P said Best Cellars will operate independently, in line with New York State laws prohibiting grocery stores from selling wine.
The store will be the only Best Cellars location in New York, A&P said, in keeping with state laws allowing one unit per licensee. A&P operates 17 other liquor stores throughout New Jersey and Connecticut.
Best Cellars was purchased by Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. in 2007. In addition to Food Emporium, A&P owns and operates A&P, Pathmark, Waldbaums, Super Fresh and Food Basics.

Yehliu Geopark
May 14, 2011 § 2 Comments
Taiwan has fascinated me with its beauty. I anticipated the hustle and bustle of Taipei city prior to our relocation, but not the natural beauty of its surrounding areas. Last weekend A surprised me with a day trip to Yehliu Geopark. The trip involved an approximately 1 hour bus trip to Jinshan, and then a short walk along the harbour before we reached the park.
Yehliu Geopark is famous for its beautiful coastline, mushroom-like rock formations and sea-trenches. These are consequent of sea erosion and earth movements. I was taken aback by the whole experience. Each rock formation resembled something different, from a calculator to a dragon and to the popular "Queen's head". The waters were so beautifully blue and had we been allowed to, we would have dived at the opportunity of experiencing them first hand in the scorching heat. Cracks along the coastline reveal the unique shading of each layer of stone and together they form stunning patterns. I could go on for paragraphs about the harmony amongst sand, stone and sea, but instead, I will allow the pictures to speak for themselves.
Yehliu Geopark is definitely worth the trip for tourists, even if only for an hour or 2. One can take the Kuo Kuang Hao bus headed for Jinshan from Taipei Main Bus station. There is a small market area selling refreshments and local dried fruits, nuts and fish just as you exit the park. I would suggest that you take some water along into the park because there is a lot of walking to do and it can get pretty hot, especially in the summer.

Wow. They do look like mushrooms!
I could feel the heat from the pics… nice.

Saving on your small business health insurance can be a challenge. But there are ways to overcome the financial obstacles and get the coverage necessary for your business. There are two major benefits of employer-based coverage. First these plans, although expensive, usually carry the best all-around protection for you and your employees. Best Health Insurance Policies in business helps companies in attracting talented staff.
Secondly, offering advantages plays an integral part in attracting and keeping quality employees. How come policy for smaller organizations therefore far more compared to large corporations? Medical health insurance for small organizations cost a lot due to the premium excellent coverage focused among a little set.
Every individual within the category represents an alternative amount of fiscal risk to a insurance carrier, which hazard is inserted upward and distribute one of the category.
Massive corporations pay much less as the chance is distributed into such a massive collection, where enterprises are able to easily see unreasonably substantial gains in premiums because of at least one or 2 associates.
Small organizations need to cover their staff under condition mandates, that may require the coverages to pay for some particular medical issues and treatments. Massive corporations' coverage are below government law, usually self-insured, fewer mandated benefits.
A small business health insurance plan could also bring about many other good effects. The employees could be made and kept happier and of course more loyal to the small company. At the same time, the minor-scaled business could also attract more high-potential employees. Many workers these days are particular about the type and scopes of healthcare insurance offered by possible employers.


text: Trust no one in blackhat. Or.. trust no one in blackhat? >> What I'm getting at: The latest was a lot of people (including me) being scammed by WhyWork. In the past I and others were scammed by wealthy. Is this the new trend for bhw? It seems all of the big members, and most of the old big memebers are banned from here. Smitty, Montypython w.e I can go on for awhile. I know there are some good people, like Nicho and of course the people that actually work for/with bhw like harro, dave, pofecker (i think) and a few others. But I go through and see it, the big fellas, who you thought were the top dos here, gone, banned. Scammed or just made poor decisions (but a lot scam). So.. trust no one in blackhat? Your thoughts.

At the beginning of this month the International Association of Science, Technical & Medical Publishers (STM) released a suite of model licenses "for a variety of uses within open access publishing." If that sounds like reinventing the widely used Creative Commons, don't be suckered; it's far worse. Rather than merely wasting our time and trying our patience with superfluous model licenses, STM is promoting licenses that decrease the "commons" and stifle "creative" opportunity. While STM insists that the model licenses will "be complementary to Creative Commons licenses," these "complements" are restrictive in nature. Furthermore, three of the five models are "Full" licenses; only two were written to supplement other licenses.
Why should STM want to launch its own licenses when Creative Commons is at work (and working well) for PLoS, BioMed Central and a host of other signatories in opposition to STMs models? By STM's account, it's because science is special:
"CC licenses are intended to be used across the entire creative sector, and are not designed specifically for publishing, or for academic and scholarly publishing." (Open Access Licensing - STM's Model Licences, 30/07/14)
That is a true statement--it's also a statement that reinforces the virtue of Creative Commons licenses for scholarly publishing. Let's give science to the masses. Let's democratize the exchange of scholarly writing and research. Let scholarly articles and data rub shoulders with Flickr images, YouTube videos and Wikipedia entries. What could possibly go wrong? Will science crumple? Will university scholars spend all their waking hours watching cat videos? No, of course not.
What's really going on? What are the driving motivations behind STM's model licenses? Why do we need models that propose (in confusing and excruciating detail) controls on who is allowed to do what with works of open access academic scholarship?
Although I am certain that many of the people that worked on these models, did so with the best of intentions, the spirit of the approach aligns with negative cultural forces--specifically, a lamentable mix of elitism, fear, and greed.
For example, take a look at STM NONCOM SL. Why do we need five bullet points to define "commercial purposes"? Why is the license so intent on making sure that open access works are not posted on a site "that incorporates advertising"?
Such a restriction appeals to the elitism of scholarly authors. Apparently, we can't bear the thought of seeing an advertisement next to one of the more than 600 erectile dysfunction articles written by scholars every year. But let's be honest; there's no romance without finance. Our hallowed universities are commercial institutions--competing for investors, seeking customers and building brands. Sure, most are "non-profit" and many are "public," but we all have light bills and the money has to come from somewhere.
STM knows this as well as anyone. As a librarian, my inbox is flooded with advertisements from publishers--most of them are STM members. Without fail, I can depend on its members to hawk wares at nearly every conference I attend--even conferences on conflicts of interest. In fact, many journals published by STM members are not shy about including advertisements of some kind within their covers.
I have to admit that I'm not a fan of the smarmy Internet advertising marketplace, but do we really think that free, open access scholarship will be buried beneath a slew of weight loss ads? That doesn't sound like a promising business plan to me. With the right Creative Commons license, the article could be reposted to a site with fewer or no ads. Users would quickly learn where to go to avoid the distractions.
But that brings us to the fear. STM's licenses reflect a fear of the marketplace for "free" information. STM NONCOM SL worries that someone will find a sustainable and yet inventive and better method of serving open access content to scholars, students and inquisitive readers. Rather than encouraging its members to create new ways to share and disseminate open access scholarship, STM NONCOM SL fears that STM members will fail and, thus, it seeks to limit competition.
And so, also, the greed. STM NONCOM SL aims to give something away for free (access) while preventing others from sharing in the benefits of doing the same. This is an impulse we must all resist--authors too. When you share an open access work of scholarship, you do not need to be the sole beneficiary. In fact, that's at least part of the point of scholarship anyway ... isn't it? To share knowledge that will help others? Generations of scholars have been giving away their rights for free and watching as for-profit publishers make hefty profits restricting access to that knowledge. Now that we have an opportunity to build inventive digital mechanisms for nonexclusive distribution of free works, why would we look for ways to prevent people from creating tools that are so good that we'd be willing to pay for them?
Don't succumb to snobbery, fear and greed. Use a Creative Commons license and play by the rules of a widely understood social norm--one that, by the way, facilitates a little stinginess (see CC-BY-NC-ND). Be proud that someone benefits from something that you chose to share.

The other day I googled my book series Undersea Encounters to see what came up. I found two interesting mentions of the series that I'm going to share with you. This is a Shameless Plug Post, but occasionally I like to spread the news about my (other) babies.
I have written about vampires…but not the undead you're probably familiar with who sleep in crypts (or perhaps sparkle in the sunlight like the famous Edward Cullen). No, these are undersea vampires—called vampire squids.
I wrote about vampire squids in Octopuses and Squids, a book that is included as a reference in the American Library Association's list of The Five Strangest Animals on the Planet. Here's what they write about the vampire squid:
Vampire Squid don't turn into bats or suck your blood, but they're still pretty creepy. These sea creatures live in the deepest, darkest and coldest parts of the ocean where they squirt neon ooze at other species and turn completely inside out.
Some of the other strange animals they include are the star-nosed mole, the lungless frog, and an animal I've never heard of: The Long-Eared Jerboa, which is a sort of bouncing rodent that looks like a miniature Dumbo.
UPDATE: Check out this YouTube video from Planet Earth, narrated by David Attenborough, about the Vampire Squid:
The other mention of the series is on scientist Janet Stemwedel's blog, Sprog Blogging, which is on the Year of Science 2009 website, where she explains in dialogue the differences between syngnathids and cephalopods. The post has some great photos (scroll a bit down the page to see) from two of the Undersea Encounters books. If you don't know what syngnathids and cephalopods are, check out the post—-you may be surprised!

Reading List: Great Feuds in Mathematics
- Hellman, Hal. Great Feuds in Mathematics. Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley & Sons, 2006. ISBN 0-471-64877-9.
- Since antiquity, many philosophers have looked upon mathematics as one thing, perhaps the only thing, that we can know for sure, "the last fortress of certitude" (p. 200). Certainly then, mathematicians must be dispassionate explorers of this frontier of knowledge, and mathematical research a grand collaborative endeavour, building upon the work of the past and weaving the various threads of inquiry into a seamless intellectual fabric. Well, not exactly…. Mathematicians are human, and mathematical research is a human activity like any other, so regardless of the austere crystalline perfection of the final product, the process of getting there can be as messy, contentious, and consequently entertaining as any other enterprise undertaken by talking apes. This book chronicles ten of the most significant and savage disputes in the history of mathematics. The bones of contention vary from the tried-and-true question of priority (Tartaglia vs. Cardano on the solution to cubic polynomials, Newton vs. Leibniz on the origin of the differential and integral calculus), the relation of mathematics to the physical sciences (Sylvester vs. Huxley), the legitimacy of the infinite in mathematics (Kronecker vs. Cantor, Borel vs. Zermelo), the proper foundation for mathematics (Poincaré vs. Russell, Hilbert vs. Brouwer), and even sibling rivalry (Jakob vs. Johann Bernoulli). A final chapter recounts the incessantly disputed question of whether mathematicians discover structures that are "out there" (as John D. Barrow puts it, "Pi in the Sky") or invent what is ultimately as much a human construct as music or literature. The focus is primarily on people and events, less so on the mathematical questions behind the conflict; if you're unfamiliar with the issues involved, you may want to look them up in other references. The stories presented here are an excellent antidote to the retrospective view of many accounts which present mathematical history as a steady march forward, with each generation building upon the work of the previous. The reality is much more messy, with the directions of inquiry chosen for reasons of ego and national pride as often as inherent merit, and the paths not taken often as interesting as those which were. Even if you believe (as I do) that mathematics is "out there", the human struggle to discover and figure out how it all fits together is interesting and ultimately inspiring, and this book provides a glimpse into that ongoing quest.

After months of eager waiting, millions of Pokemon fans all over the world can finally start playing Pokemon Go, after it finally had a full release yesterday. The game, which has been in beta for several months, was first announced in September of last year after the death of former Nintendo president Satoru Iwata.
Pokemon Go has been in Beta ever since the first Japan-exclusive beta began back in March. The beta would later expand to Australia and New Zealand, with North America getting a beta in mid-May. Now, as July is getting underway, the game has finally been officially launched.
Pokemon Go is a smartphone game, plain and simple, that involves players making use of the game's app and its built-in world map to walk around their neighborhoods and look for wild Pokemon, which they can then catch and use to battle their friends and various gyms that pop up in other locations.
The game is free-to-play, and players can earn more Poke Balls to catch more Pokemon by leveling up, which they can use to capture more Pokemon. If that's not fast enough for you, you can also buy more Poke Balls with real money.
Not only is the game a fairly fun way to exercise and meet people, it's also something that many people have been wanting for several years: a Pokemon mobile game.
The game also comes with a smart watch that will notify you when a Pokemon is nearby, allowing you to head over to that location and catch them. However, you can also simply play with your smartphone if you don't want to deal with peripherals.
Just be on the lookout while you're trying to catch Pokemon; you may want that Charizard really badly, but don't do something like wander into a busy street trying to capture it. In the meantime, go out and start on your own Pokemon journey, and try to catch all the Pokemon you can.

President Obama's announcement last week that he is now in favor of gay marriage has caused quite a flurry of commentary, but I think most of it misses a bigger story that is taking shape behind it.
A CBS/New York Times poll released on Monday revealed that two-thirds of those polled thought that the announcement was made primarily for political reasons. Even more ominously, the proportion of Independents who thought it was primarily political was even higher: 70%. Among those who said it would make them more likely to vote for him, most were in states he's almost certain to win, while among those who say that it makes them less likely to vote for him, many are in critically-important swing states. Media bias can easily be seen in the headlines various outlets gave the story. ABC and the Huffington Post, among others, ran almost identical headlines: Obama's Gay Marriage Stance Won't Cost Him Votes. On the other side of the spectrum, Fox News and the Christian Post both headlined their stories "Obama's Gay Marriage Stance Could Cost Him Votes."
I want to suggest that the more significant effect is not the decision itself, which many of us think did not signal an evolution of his position on the issue but rather a revelation of where he had always been. The more significant effect is on the perception of Barack Obama's truthfulness and integrity among Independents.
Independent voters tend to be more idealistic than partisan voters — in fact, that's one of their primary motivations not to be associated with either party. That tendency towards idealism played very much to Obama's favor in 2008. He spoke in positive, hopeful, optimistic tones about a new kind of politics, and he promised a kind of leadership that would rise above partisanship and appeal to the better angels of the American spirit.
What those independents have seen after three and half years has been strikingly different. They now realize that while he often presents both sides of an issue with what Morton Blackwell calls "sweet reasonableness," the ultimate position he adopts is that of a hard left ideologue. He talks about compromise, but then shows that his idea of compromise is for the other side to surrender. He speaks about keeping lobbyists out of his government, and then hires dozens of them. He speaks about ending the politics of special interests, and then rewards his union supporters with billions in auto bailout dollars while destroying the life work of hundreds of small dealerships. It is in this context that this latest announcement comes, and when seventy percent of Independent voters say that they think Obama's new position on gay marriage was announced for political reasons, what they're gradually coming to in their subconscious minds is the recognition that this President is not the post-partisan breath of fresh air that they thought he was, but rather at least as cynical, self-serving, self-absorbed, divisive, nasty and deceitful as any politician they've ever seen. His comments about ordinary citizens display not merely an elitist view, but something much closer to contempt.
To the extent that this latest move is seen as politically calculated, it reinforces this underlying and growing impression that this President is not the man he appeared to be when the idealism of Independent voters fashioned his incredibly thin résumé into whatever profile they wanted him to have. Instead, he's either no better than all the rest, and quite possibly one of the worst. When an idealist's naiveté is exposed and trust is shattered, it is not easily rebuilt. Contributing to that devolution of the perceived of trust and integrity is the most significant effect that his much-trumpeted evolution on the issue of gay marriage may have, and that may indeed send him to defeat in November.

To kick off Celebration Weekend, the Career Development Center will hold the fourth annual Career Jam, a networking opportunity for students to learn about how to enter potential fields of interest once they are armed with their Skidmore degree.
Approximately 81 volunteer representatives from various firms and organizations, willing to share their industry insights with interested students, will fill the second floor of the Murray-Aikins Dining Hall on Friday afternoon from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
As a collaboration of the Parents Council, the Alumni Association and the Career Development Center, Career Jam consists of volunteers from local businesses, national brands and organizations, Skidmore Parents and Alumni and current employees. In the works since June, the event incorporates the vast network of the extended College community to provide students with a perspective on the various courses professional lives can take after college.
The increase in volunteers, from approximately 40 last year, comes from an increased focus on local businesses.
"We deliberately increased local representatives for students who are looking to intern while in college," said Deborah Loffredo, director of the Career Development Center.
Although some of the companies represented will be hiring, the event is not considered a hiring event. Career Jam centers on building a foundational professional network for students, and assisting in building effective and useful networking skills that can be utilized for the rest of their careers.
"Career Jam is a networking event," said Loffredo, "not a job fair. There are some who are looking to hire, but most are here to talk about their careers. They provide the opportunity to allow students to ask questions like, 'Do I need a graduate degree to enter your field?' or, 'What's a good entry-level job for me to get my foot in the door?' They are there to offer advice, and so many people want to help."
To help build anticipation for the Jam, events on Thursday begin with the What-Not-To-Wear fashion show on the second floor of the dining hall at 6 p.m., an instructional fashion show on how to properly dress in professional environments. Following the show, there will be an informational meeting with alumna Anne Wargo '89, who will provide tips on how to make the most of what will be many students' first networking experience.
Friday, the Jam will be in full swing, beginning with a presentation on the MB-190 course entitled "A Brand Called Me," which focuses on creating an effective, marketable self-image, in Gannett Auditorium at 1 p.m. The Career Development Center will then offer time slots for resume critiques and conducting mock interviews at the Center from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m., on a first-come first-serve basis to those who sign up ahead of time at the Center.
"It's never too early to start looking," said Loffredo. "It's never too early to search for internships. Career Jam it not just for Seniors-it is for everyone!"

Francia advises, 'Never give up your rights to the state'
At the risk of being dollar stupid … from a financial perspective, I'm struggling immensely
Steve LaMar and Vincent Francia
During Call to the Public, Bob Moore stated, "Two weeks ago there was a significant amount of noise" coming from a certain establishment in Cave Creek. He said calls were made to Vice Mayor Ernie Bunch as well as Town Marshall Adam Stein, both of whom contacted the offending business.
Bob Moore
Utilities Manager Jessica Marlow provided background on her request to enter into a WIFA (Water Infrastructure Finance Authority of Arizona) loan agreement in the amount of $1.4 million for the purpose of replacing the town's eight inch water line with a 16" water line from the Neary Tank to Rancho Mañana and from Canyon ridge Estates to Carefree Highway.
Ralph Mozillo
Marlow stated it was supposed to go to the Water Advisory Committee but they were unable to assemble a quorum. She also explained, under the worst case scenario, there was more than enough money ($175,000) budgeted for Black Mountain water line replacement that could be used to make the first debt service payments of $9,000 in January and $88,000 in July if necessary.
Fred Rosenfeld and Jessica Marlow
Mozilo and Councilman Jim Bruce asked why water company revenue of $750,000, previously transferred to the general fund, couldn't be transferred back.
Marlow stated those funds were already budgeted for other uses with revenue from Walmart.
Councilman Dick Esser clarified the 16-inch water line was not just for the benefit of Walmart but for the entire water system.
Mozilo queried why the motion contained an emergency clause.
Rosenfeld said it was a standard practice to automatically include an emergency clause for WIFA loans.
Trenk asked Marlow if the town was ever going to stop borrowing money for improvements to the water company and if there was an end in sight.
Marlow said the town was trying to do things right the first time around rather than continue to spend money patching things repeatedly as the former owner did.
Vice Mayor Ernie Bunch asked if some of the work wasn't already completed.
Marlow said it was and that coordinating the water line improvements with the road improvements has saved the town hundreds of thousands in both dollars and traffic interruption.
Town Manager Usama Abujbarah stated Walmart is about 100 percent certain it will start construction next month, in which case, there would be development fees. However, he also stated, under the worst case scenario the town could meet its debt obligations.
Moore spoke during public comment and stated the town's financial data online was one quarter behind, questioned whether council had current financial data available to assist them with making their decision and how the town was going to repay the $1.4 million loan.
Charles Spitzer said this was the first he'd heard about the $750,000 transfer and stated there are Cave Creek water customers that are not Cave Creek residents that are paying for Cave Creek's general fund, which he said was "not right either."
Councilman Steve LaMar moved to approve the resolution and stated the town should not be "penny wise and dollar stupid." He said completing the necessary infrastructure was one of the steps required to take advantage of commercial development along Carefree Highway.
Bunch, who seconded the motion agreed, as did Bruce.
Mozilo said, "At the risk of being dollar stupid … from a financial perspective, I'm struggling immensely."
Francia stated he couldn't remember the last time the word normal was used to describe the economy and said, while this was an expenditure, it was also an asset to the town. "This has been thinking outside the box that has kept things going."
Council voted unanimously to approve the resolution, with Mozilo and Esser voting yes, "reluctantly."
Council also voted unanimously to pass all the other action items on the agenda, including an infrastructure reimbursement agreement with Walmart, whereas Walmart would pay for nearly $4 million in infrastructure improvements for which the town will reimburse $1.2 million.
Sean Lake
Attorney Sean Lake stated Walmart plans to begin construction within the next few weeks and detailed the costs of the infrastructure improvements it would be making.
Marlow explained that a portion of the $1.2 million the town is agreeing to reimburse Walmart will come from the IGA the town has with Maricopa County Department of Transportation for Cave Creek Road and Carefree Highway intersection improvements.
Council approved a non-exclusive cable television license agreement with COXCOM, Inc. to provide cable services within the town of Cave Creek. While COX representative Michael Stull couldn't say when that might occur, he indicated it could be within the next few years and getting the license in place was the first step.
Trenk, who moved to pass the second reading of an ordinance that would regulate/ban the use of fireworks within the town limits, stated the ordinance was necessary and thanked Town Attorney Marlene Pontrelli and Rural/Metro Fire Chief John Kraetz.
LaMar encouraged people to contact their legislators about the passage of laws that are dangerous to the fragile desert environment.
Town Clerk Carrie Dyrek presented the first of two public hearings to explain the proposed extension of the Home Rule option as an alternative expenditure limitation, which would then go to voters in March.
The town has operated under Home Rule for the past 12 years, which allows the town to choose an alternative to the state-imposed expenditure limitations set by the legislature in 1980, before the town's incorporation.
Dyrek explained the state imposed expenditure limitation is based on a formula that considers increases in population and inflation only.
Home Rule allows council to set the expenditure limit through the adoption of its operating budget each year.
In other words, despite the town having the revenue to make certain expenditures, the state imposed limitations would preclude it from doing so, except for limited exclusions if expenditures are made using financing rather than cash.
The second public hearing will be on Nov. 1, when council will vote to adopt a resolution to place Home Rule on the ballot.
Before adjourning Francia asserted, "Never give up your rights to the state."
