Se rían cruel e ignominiosamente de todo lo que fuese justo, pero que exigiese humillación y servidumbre. Confundían los honores con los méritos; a los dieciséis años hablaban ya de puestos seguros.

    www.tooeletranscript.com TUESDAY TOOELE RANSCRIPT Champion T cowboy tops his class See B1 BULLETIN March 6, 2007 SERVING TOOELE COUNTY SINCE 1894 VOL. 113 NO. 82 50¢ UTA won’t add busses for Tooele Route numbers will change but capacity, routes will stay the same by Suzanne Ashe STAFF WRITER Neither bus routes nor the number of busses running between Tooele and Salt Lake City will change when the Utah Transit Authority’s route overhaul goes into effect this fall. However, the names of the routes will change. According to UTA’s Senior Service Planner Steve Swan, all of the inter-county routes are becoming a “400 series.” This means the current No. 51 bus would be the No. 451, the No. 53 would become the No. 453 and the No. 75, which services the Tooele Army Depot, would be the No. 475. The No. 475 route is more of a reverse commute, Swan explained. It brings riders to the Tooele Army Depot during the morning commute and back to Salt Lake Valley during the evening commute. The three Salt Lake-Tooele County routes have a com- bined ridership of more than 700 passengers per day. UTA’s goal is to increase Salt Lake County ridership, now at 57,000 a day, by 12 percent over the next three years. However Tooele County service is not scheduled for an increase. According to UTA, there has been a 7 percent increase photography / Troy Boman in ridership on the Tooele-Salt Lake lines in the past five Northlake Elementary third-graders walk and run around the school grounds for 30 minutes once a week as part of Utah Department of Health’s Gold years.

Starring Ethan Hawke and Patricia Arquette as Mason's parents and newcomer Lorelei Linklater as his sister Samantha, BOYHOOD charts the rocky terrain of childhood like no other film has before. Snapshots of adolescence from road trips and family dinners to birthdays and graduations and all the moments in between become transcendent, set to a soundtrack spanning the years from Coldplay's Yellow to Arcade Fire's Deep Blue.

  • Using Non-Academic Multimedia Resources to Enhance Student Learning of Fact-Based Fraud Cases
    Journal of Forensic & Investigative Accounting Vol. 7, Issue 1, January - June, 2015 Using Non-Academic Multimedia Resources to Enhance Student Learning of Fact-Based Fraud Cases Ronald J. Daigle Jan Taylor Morris Ross Quarles* This paper discusses how multimedia (the combination of words, pictures, video and other recordings [Reed, 2006]) from non-academic sources can be used to make the coverage of fact-based financial statement fraud cases more interesting and educational to students. Most textbooks addressing financial statement auditing, fraud auditing, forensic accounting, and ethics courses contain fact-based cases for the purpose of providing students with insight into the detection, prevention, investigation, and ethical issues of financial statement fraud. The goal of studying such cases is to help students more fully appreciate the importance and relevance of one or more particular matters emphasized by the case. Unfortunately, students generally lack the adequate levels of professional and practice experience for truly appreciating many of the facts presented. In addition, due to the lack of a proper frame of reference, students may also doubt the reality and relevance of a case written by an educator for inclusion in a textbook for academic purposes. The Internet provides a wealth of readily available multimedia (particularly video) about actual instances of financial statement fraud—a number of which are the topics of many common textbook cases. Such multimedia from non-academic sources can be used to complement textbook cases to help students gain more interest and insight into a particular fraud. As a result, students can appreciate and learn more from the case than if textbook case materials were the * The authors are, respectively, Professor of Accounting at Sam Houston State University, Assistant Professor of Accounting at Sam Houston State University, and Professor of Accounting at Sam Houston State University.
