Fresh: In leading players' righteousness and unwillingness to compromise, this real-life drama encapsulates current U.S. society's tug-of-war over values.

Clear Cut: The story of Philomath, Oregon
A true and accurate depiction of events that tore a small town in half. As a resident of Philomath with high school aged children at the time, I lived through the pain of seeing a great town fall victim to a misguided man's attempts to control morality by extorting the town's legacy college scholarship money. The futures of many, many kids were abruptly taken away buy this man. True, real life view of small town America in the struggle for tolerance versus money.
