And he’s not a hands off kind of guy at the jail, either. He Raiders kick to win mixes it up when he has to. Recently, an inmate fell off the top of one of the bunks and hit his head on the concrete floor. Griffin, mindless of his own safety, rushed in to resuscitate the inmate, who had stopped breathing. After bringing the inmate back to life, Griffin stood up and realized where he was. “I stood up and realized I was in the tank surrounded by inmates who were all thanking me,” Griffin said. “And then you think, ‘Jesus, I just saved this guy’s life,’ and then you think about where you’re at. Wrap your head around that.” And here’s something else to wrap your head around: in his other life, outside of the jail, Griffin is a national – make that international – champion power lifter. At 6-foot-3, 308 pounds, Griffin competes in the 308- pound weight class in both the amateur and law enforcement classes, and ended up winning both recently at the International Powerlifting Association Championships in Newport, Ore. At the IPSA Championships, Griffin put up a 551.1 pound bench press, 700 pound squat, and a 585 pound dead lift. For those not in the know, that’s a lot of weight. “I like to compete in the ama- teur division because that’s drug-tested,” Griffin said. “I was pretty tired after that day, but happy. I’ve always been the strongest person, from high school all the way through.” And, being lucky enough to

DIRECTIONS: A. Using each "Chaos Grid" number with its letter one time, arrange the numbers with their letters for the "Order Grid" so each vertical column, horizontal row, and two diagonals each ADD to numbers inside thick lined cells. B. Some correct numbers with their letters have been put into the "Order Grid" to get you started. Also, above the "Order Grid" is a "Decoded Message" clue. C. After you have solved the "Order Grid" doing as direction "A" says, put the let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
