A Lane County resident who won a $1.5 million jury verdict against the Oregon Department of Transportation is suing the agency again — this time claiming ODOT rescinded a job offer in retaliation for his previous legal victory
Steven Templin of Pleasant Hill filed a complaint April 10 in Lane County Circuit Court
alleging ODOT passed him over for an engineering position because of his whistleblower history with the agency
The complaint seeks more than $2.4 million in damages
Templin applied for the position of Statewide Structure Quality Engineer
a technical lead engineer who assists with the statewide bridge construction program
He said his application highlighted "15 years of experience with ODOT working on bridge and highway structural construction."
Templin's lawsuit says that when interviewed for the position
he was asked numerous questions about his previous lawsuit
which the complaint alleges is in violation of ODOT's written policy that all candidates must be asked the same questions
Templin said he answered the questions anyway
and a hiring manager later verbally offered him the job and provided him a compensation offer,which he accepted,according to the complaint
But once ODOT leadership was informed of the job offer
two ODOT employees Templin had not listed as references were contacted for negative comments "in an effort to create a more compelling pretextual basis for revoking the offer."
the hiring manager then rescinded the job offer based on those negative references and direction from senior managers
The lawsuit states it is against policy for ODOT to base hiring decisions on references not listed by the applicant and for a hiring manager's decision to be overridden
ODOT officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the lawsuit
Templin's lawsuit said he submitted a request to meet with the hiring manager to discuss ODOT's concerns and the hiring manager's supervisor told him ODOT was moving forward with another candidate and "the agency does not wish to meet to discuss any further.”
"Without the acts of retaliation set forth above
Templin would have been hired for the position of ODOT Statewide Structural Quality Engineer
Templin has suffered economic losses in the form of the difference in compensation
employment benefits and retirement benefits between the two jobs," the complaint said
The lawsuit states it is believed the position of Statewide Structure Quality Engineer remains unfilled
"ODOT’s assertion that a better candidate was given the job was pretext
intended to hide the retaliatory reason for revoking Templin’s offer," the lawsuit states
Templin's lawsuit seeks more than $2.4 million
including $428,806 for the difference in wages
retirement income and benefits over 15 years between his current job with Lane County and the one he applied
And $2 million for the "mental pain and suffering
embarrassment and humiliation caused by again being retaliated against
and derided by ODOT for simply doing what he is legally entitled to do."
Templin was a resident engineer for the Oregon Department of Transportation from 2015 until 2020
ODOT stated that it fired Templin for reasons other than those cited, but in 2022, a jury sided with Templin and awarded him $1.5 million in damages

UTAH STATE AGGIES BASKETBALL
12:15 PM | Updated: 4:22 pm
NEVADA - JANUARY 15: Karson Templin #22 of the Utah State Aggies gestures after hitting a 3-pointer against the UNLV Rebels in the first half of their game at the Thomas & Mack Center on January 15
BY TANNER TRIPP
Utah- The Utah State Aggies are building on some offseason momentum following their third straight NCAA Tournament appearance and incredible success under first-year head coach Jerrod Calhoun
In the wake of Calhoun signing an extension to remain in Logan and Mason Falslev striking a deal to return for his junior season
Karson Templin has also expressed his commitment to the program
returning for a third season instead of entering the transfer portal
Let's get it! Back for year 3, thank you to the coaching staff for believing in me and the Blue A Collective for keeping their commitments and making this happen.Can't wait to be back in the spectrum and for another great year. Go Aggies🤘❤️ pic.twitter.com/mrunMyDJ3D
— Karson Templin (@karsontemplin) April 14, 2025
In his first two seasons as a member of the Utah State Aggies
Karson Templin has provided a spark off the bench as a core piece of the second unit
The 6’8 forward shined in stints during his freshman year under Danny Sprinkle
the experience helped him develop and improve going into his sophomore season
The growth in Templin’s game was noticeable almost immediately when he put up double-figure point totals in three of the first four games of the season
something he didn’t do even once in his freshman year
He was also getting significantly more minutes as his average skyrocketed from 7.6 to 17.1 minutes per game over the course of the season
Karson even started three games for the Aggies in 2024-25 against Montana
showing that he had clearly gained Coach Calhoun’s trust to be able to start in the team’s biggest game of the year
Karson Templin averaged 7.4 points and five rebounds
an impressive rise from 20% his freshman year
Karson had several strong performances this season
10-rebound double-double in an 89-83 win over Fresno State
He was 5-8 from the field and 2-2 from beyond the arc

Templin continued to be the energy guy for the Aggies off the bench
but his development in being able to hold his own inside while also stretching the floor with an improved three-point shot showed how pivotal his play can be to Utah State’s success going forward
Continuity from year to year has become a luxury in college athletics
something the Aggies know from experience over the last few years
Utah State has had four different head coaches in charge
rosters have also looked extremely different from year to year
the only three returners were Mason Falslev
forcing the new coaching staff to field their roster primarily from the portal
who all certainly had lucrative offers to jump ship and take their talents elsewhere
This rare stability in this day and age of college sports will give the Aggies the chance to truly build from last season to next
While the squad did lose pieces like Ian Martinez
and Braden Housley have entered the transfer portal
With just four departing transfers so far and eight days remaining in the current portal window
the only Mountain West teams with fewer exits are San Diego State and Nevada
This means that along with Falslev and Templin
and Isaac Davis are all seemingly coming back in 2025-26
allowing the returning coaching staff to supplement the already strong roster with transfers as opposed to building a team entirely from the portal
It has also become less common for top players for mid-major teams like Mason Falslev and Karson Templinto to turn down the chance to jump to a Power 5 program
This can be seen even just within the Mountain West Conference with Donovan Dent transferring from New Mexico to UCLA
this much returning firepower to a team that already made the NCAA Tournament will mean high expectations heading into next season

It was a memorable moment in a game the Aggies really wish they could forget
Riding high after winning the first 10 games of the season
the Utah State basketball team was clinging to a four-point lead against UC San Diego on Dec
17 at the Spectrum when USU guard Mason Falslev missed a shot from directly underneath the basket
The misfire went off the glass and over to the other side of the basket
It initially looked like UCSD’s Cade Pendleton was going to come away with the board
but Falslev managed to tip the ball out of his hands in mid-air
leading Aggie Karson Templin to dive after the carom with his usual reckless abandon
The sophomore forward managed to get control of the basketball while on his back
but Templin was quickly swarmed by the greedy hands of Pendleton and Tritons guard Justin Rochelin
In an effort to maintain possession of the basketball
somehow propelling his body straight up with just his head and neck still on the floor
It was an impressive athletic move that looked a little bit like break dancing … or perhaps another sport
“I don’t know if he was trying out for the gymnastics team or what?” Utah State head coach Jerrod Calhoun said of Templin going inverted
“I don’t know if (USU gymnastics coach) Kristin (White) was in the stands or not
Falslev managed to grab his teammate’s ankles for support just as an official blew the whistle
enabling the Aggies to maintain possession on a held ball call and Templin’s lower body to be carefully lowered to the floor
I don’t really know what happened,” Templin declared a few days later
All I know is I was trying to get back to my feet
so I think I was trying to roll over backwards onto my feet
I think he thought we were doing a football celebration or something
While Templin emerged from the scrum unscathed
the Aggies turned the ball over during their subsequent possession
a not-insignificant turnover considering the home team ended up losing the game to the Tritons by two points
Templin’s acrobatic move during the UC San Diego game was unusual
The effort was something Utah State fans have become very accustomed to seeing from Templin the past two seasons
the Texas native has been putting his body on the line in pursuit of basketballs
drawing comparisons to a young Justin Bean
who initially walked on at USU and redshirted in 2017-18 before emerging as a starter and a star the next four seasons
230-pound Templin is probably a bit undersized to man the post for a Division I team
who played in the NBA G League for the Memphis Hustle in 2022-23 before signing with Alba Berlin in Germany in July 2023
Templin has become a fan favorite at the Spectrum for his hustle plays
“I feel like that’s something I’ve kind of been hearing ever since the Ryan Odom coaching staff,” Templin said of the Justin Bean comparison
“That’s one thing they told me when I was kind of looking at coming here
like ‘We just see a lot of Justin in you.’ And I take that as a huge compliment
A standout at Lovejoy High School in Lucas
Texas — about 200 miles away from Bean’s hometown of Moore
11.1 rebounds and 2.0 blocks per game as a senior
who spent the 2021-22 and 2022-23 seasons at Utah State before taking the job at VCU
Templin maintained his commitment to the Aggies
a regular-season Mountain West title and its first NCAA Tournament victory in 23 years
That was enough for Washington to hire Sprinkle away
but less than a week after Calhoun was hired
Templin announced he was once again staying at Utah State
Playing primarily behind 2024 Mountain West Player of the Year Great Osobor last season
averaging just 7.5 minutes per game and scoring 58 total points
Although he’s still come off the bench all but one game thus far this year
Templin needed just six games to score his first 60 points of the 2024-25 season
“Karson has been a wonderful teammate,” Calhoun said
I think he really embodies what we want a Utah State basketball player to look like
He’s taken the next step as a sophomore — just like Mason has — I think both kids fit our system to a tee.”
finishing around the rim and giving energy
He’s really grown with his passing and his understanding of offense
Last year he was in a lot of foul trouble and had inconsistency with his minutes
I think he will only get better and better.”
Templin is starting to answer the question of whether or not he’ll be able to develop his offensive game in a manner similar to Bean
who went from averaging 4.1 points as a redshirt freshman
to starting all 97 of Utah State’s games the next three seasons
After averaging 11.9 points and 11.4 points his sophomore and junior seasons
Bean averaged just under a double-double as a senior: 17.4 points and 9.9 rebounds
mostly from his junior and senior years,” Templin said when asked if he’s seen tape of Bean’s college days
Templin is averaging 10.3 points and 5.3 rebounds per game despite playing only 17.5 minutes per night
and the forward is 8 of 16 from 3-point range after knocking down a career-high three 3-pointers in Utah State’s 75-68 win at St
Coach tells us if we’re open to shoot it,” said Templin
who scored a career-best 18 points and connected on two 3-point attempts in the loss to UC San Diego
if I am open and have a good look at the rim
so it’s something that I think I can definitely add to my game a little more as I get older.”
Templin grew up the offspring of a former Ricks College softball player from Sandy and a BYU graduate who grew up in Texas
Templin made an unofficial visit to Brigham Young during the summer of 2022
so we have a little beef there,” Templin said with a grin
I think my dad’s become an even bigger Utah State fan than BYU fan now so it’s kind of taking over
who started recruiting Templin during his sophomore year at Lovejoy
Templin has stayed with his commitment to the very first basketball program to make him an offer
And due to his relentless drive and energy
So much so that a group of a half-dozen Aggie fans often show up on the first row of Utah State games at the Spectrum sporting blonde wigs and black Cobra Kai headbands
Although Templin normally wears white Nike headbands to contain his flowing locks
there is undeniably a physical resemblance between him and famed “Karate Kid” and “Cobra Kai” character Johnny Lawrence
I think it’s a cool kind of thing to be compared to
And I like it because I like to play physical

GROVE, Okla. — At Second Chance Pet Rescue
the atmosphere is filled with excitement as dogs and cats await their weekly special guests — local students eager to read
“The very first thing you see is a smile on every child,” says Louise Templin
the founder of 'Claire’s Reading Program.' This unique initiative invites first
and third graders to the shelter to read aloud to animals
creating a loving bond between kids and pets
Templin's inspiration came from her granddaughter
“He (Templin's son) sent me a picture of Claire reading to the animals
I started to think about how children lost so much reading time during the pandemic
and my little wheels just started turning,” she said
who enthusiastically supported the program
“I don't think she even finished her sentence
The program officially kicked off last year
it has blossomed into a heartwarming experience
a group of third graders arrived at the shelter
'I need to go back and tell my teacher I want to learn more words
The enthusiasm for learning has grown among the students
as they recognize the value of improving their literacy skills
The emotional impact of the program extends beyond the students
I wasn't prepared for the impact it would have on me emotionally to see those kids connect with those dogs and cats,” Smith said
reading to the animals is more than just practice; it’s an opportunity to contribute to their community
“The kids are so proud they have been able to contribute to their community
Templin hopes the program continues to spread kindness and foster a love for reading among the students
“It’s one time during the week that makes right here warm and fuzzy because you hope that you are making some kind of difference with literacy,” she said
Templin and Smith said they have already started planning the schedule for next school year
and three other senior team members will also be promoted
“This group is a sampling of the exceptional leaders who have been an integral part of Landmark’s success over the last decade,” said Rogers
“They have been instrumental in the growth of the Landmark platform with a proven track record of excellence
I continue to be impressed by this group’s consistent work ethic
deep understanding of the complexities of our vertically integrated business
and ability to create value for Landmark and our investors.”
Landmark Properties is pleased to announce four new leadership positions
Walt Templin will move to a new role as President and Chief Investment Officer from his role as Head of Investment Management
Templin will oversee all aspects of the firm’s investment strategy including acquisitions
He will also work with Landmark Properties’ executive leadership team on the company’s continued growth in the U.S
student housing and Build-to-Rent sectors and expansion into the UK and European Student Housing Markets as well as into Traditional Multifamily
formerly Executive Managing Director of Development
will be elevated to Chief Development Officer
Doornbos has been with the firm since 2010 and is based in Athens
Art Templin has been elevated to Chief Operating Officer
Development and Construction from his current role as Executive Managing Director
Templin will be responsible for the full-cycle execution of new development opportunities across Landmark’s vertically integrated platform
He will also be responsible for managing day-to-day operations of the departments and ensuring company goals and objectives are met
Porter McDonald will assume the role of Executive Managing Director
He was formerly Managing Director of Investment Management and will lead the organization’s investment team focusing on acquisitions
and driving investment growth maximizing portfolio returns
“Our exponential growth combined with the ever-evolving commercial real estate landscape demanded that we expand our executive team allowing me to focus more on the strategic direction of the firm as we explore and expand in new verticals,” said Wes Rogers
“This is certainly not me stepping away from the business in any way whatsoever
but rather us changing job titles to better reflect everyone’s roles
I am very fortunate to be surrounded with hard working
intelligent professionals and that has given me the opportunity to concentrate my efforts on the broader picture moving forward.”
If you find yourself craving an Easter celebration that includes beer and booty shaking after your traditional Easter festivities, the 15th Annual Bunny Hop hosted by New City Movement might be right up your alley
I strut down to the coveted line down 300 West towards T.F. Brewing for the much-anticipated event around noon
where a colorful array of bunny ears and bushy tails buzz
It’s clear this is no average Easter event
featuring Easter bunnies far less terrifying than the ones I feared at the mall as a child
this could easily be the Met Gala for SLC’s hottest bunnies
neon garb and fuzzy plush ears setting the theme
I feel like I’ve discovered a secret
dazzling bunny ball that is clearly anticipated year round
My nerves fade as I am offered a pair of sequin rabbit ears by a kind mustached man
The brand-new Silly Rabbit brew boasts earthy notes of tropical fruit and fresh-cut cannabis
One beer may as well count as two under the afternoon sun
so this brew was all I needed to hit the dance floor
The crowd was bursting with positive energy and community
with people of all ages coming together to romp and boogie
This event attracts a radiantly hospitable group of people
A portion of the proceeds benefits Comunidades Unidas
a local nonprofit dedicated to creating a better Utah where the Latinx and immigrant community has the courage to take and use their social and political power in favor of their collective interests
Brewing staff and event-goers alike were quick to speak with verve and enthusiasm about this year’s chosen cause
These SLC folks might’ve skipped church this Easter Sunday
but the kind of holiness only the coolest Utahns know of illuminated T.F Brewing‘s patio during the 15th Annual Bunny Hop

“I think there are a few breweries in the nation that are taking on wine production as well
and for us it’s important to keep challenging ourselves,” she relates
they’re going to start to learn about grape varietals.”
First steps included field trips to visit Evan Lewandowski of the popular and formerly Utah-based Ruth Lewandowski Wines
where the team learned about the ‘natural wine’ approach and made connections for sourcing grapes
Making beer and making wine are different and methods don’t always translate
“It’s a little bit more barbaric,” Watts adds
Kevin’s fondness for German beer styles expressed itself in the choice to do a Riesling (a classic German grape) for their first attempt
which was fermented with natural yeast and no chemical additions or filtration
the wine was served relatively young on draft and the result was a bright
A bottled pét-nat version followed shortly after and was extremely popular
Wine releases since then have included the 2024 Red Blend with big notes of leather
These are sold on draft in the TF Brewing taproom or bottled in their to-go shop
The initial risk of selling wine to beer drinkers seems to have paid off
because wine drinkers are a whole different ball game
“I think it’s a really nice marriage of the two here.” The brewery had been buying natural wines to serve in their taproom
“There are a few breweries in the nation that are taking on wine production as well
and for us it’s important to keep challenging ourselves.”
The wine/beer hybrids haven’t stopped flowing either
although those are a harder sell to the public who may not know what they are
“The oenobeers are a little tiny side project,” says Kevin
“It’s the kind of thing we do maybe once a year
just to learn.” And learning is a constant theme for this program
“The brewers are learning methods from winemaking … They’re really excited about it,” gushes Watts
they’re going to start to learn about grape varietals.” 2023 and 2024 saw the release of a series of grisettes
The most recent was their Giddy Up Grisette aged in Chardonnay casks with rosé wine must

We balance the culture of craft beer with the businesses it supports
There are loads of technical aspects a skilled brewer should nail down to create something special
but there’s also a point where you just have to give up some autonomy
at least accept it’s OK to play a little for some R&D
One of the most important things people in American craft beer have learned in recent years is how this also applies to their customers
A diverse menu that may expand beyond just beer is becoming table stakes and creativity in what kind of styles and flavor experiences you offer—in or outside of beer—can matter more than ever
but you also have to be flexible to what you hear and learn from people sitting at your bar
we explore this idea and what it means to grow a business and expectations with Kevin and Britt Templin of Salt Lake City

The California Department of Transportation advises motorists that Southbound Interstate 5 will be reduced to only one or two lanes in northern Los Angeles County between Vista Del Lago Road and Templin Highway beginning Sunday night
Lane closures are necessary for the safety of travelers and workers who are constructing pavement
Southbound I-5 has only three lanes due to storm damage in 2023
Crews are working to restore Southbound I-5 to four lanes
Lane closures will take place on the following schedule
which is subject to change due to weather or operational reasons
leaving at least one lane open for traffic
Motorists should allow extra travel time and expect delays on Southbound I-5 due to this construction activity
Closure times and the number of closed lanes are subject to change due to weather or operational reasons
Northbound I-5 is not involved in these scheduled closures
This construction project is repairing slope damage from powerful storms in early 2023 which saturated the region and led to a landslide on Southbound I-5 north of Templin Highway in the Castaic area
Before starting your travel, you can check highway closures 24/7 at QuickMap.dot.ca.gov or by using the free QuickMap app, or by calling 1-800-427-7623.

died and one man is hospitalized after a solo-vehicle crash on Interstate 5 in Castaic Monday afternoon
The California Highway Patrol said on Monday
officers from the Newhall Area was notified of a crash with an ambulance responding on southbound I-5
along with Los Angeles County Fire Department personnel responded to the scene
CHP said a preliminary investigation found that a 24-year-old Bakersfield man was driving his 2001 Toyota Avalon southbound I-5
south of Templin Highway at a high rate of speed
the driver made an unsafe turning movement and ultimately collided with the dirt ascending embankment which caused the vehicle to go airborne and came to rest about 50 feet down the descending dirt embankment
CHP said there were a total of four people in the car
ranging from the ages of 25 to 30 years old
One passenger was taken to Henry Mayo Memorial Hospital in critical condition
CHP said a Sig-Alert was issued for the right two lanes for the investigation and recovery of the vehicle
the right two lanes were closed from about six hours
Anyone with information regarding this crash is asked to call Officer Penza or the Public Information Officer
Greengard at the CHP Newhall Area at (661) 600-1600
A plan to expand a popular Post Falls marina on the Spokane River has drawn criticism from several residents along the river and support from other community members
414 PF Hospitality LLC filed an application last year with the Idaho Department of Lands for an encroachment permit to expand Marina 33 at Red Lion Hotel Templin’s on the River
reconfigure fuel lines with two new dispensaries and build a new ship store on the river
The application also calls for relocating the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office boat garage within the marina footprint
and an investor group announced their acquisition of Templin’s last spring
bar and marina was founded in 1986 and new ownership said in a news release last year that it would make upgrades to the hotel last year and this year
would also phase upgrades planned to the fuel system
the food and beverage stand and the marina
and a phone call Friday to 414 PF Hospitality LLC was not returned
the marina upgrades would include replacing old
decrepit docks and rearranging the marina to provide more moorage to the community
specifically 100 additional boat parking spaces
The new boat slips were among the primary issues residents living near the marina addressed at a public hearing last month at Coeur d’Alene High School
claiming more boats on the water would cause more congestion and safety issues on the river
They also said the additional boats riding in the river would further damage residents’ docks and erode their shorelines
we believe that our elected officials and leaders have a blatant disregard for the current condition of the river
for the fact that most people believe (know) that the river most likely has exceeded its maximum carrying capacity a few years ago
and disregard that 100 additional easy-access boats would continue to do damage to the river,” Sheryl Scofield wrote in a proposed letter for newspaper publication
A resident who lives down the river from the marina near Coeur d’Alene wrote in an email to the state that the additional boat slips will help fill the shortage of slips and that 100 slips will barely be noticed on the river
The application also shows the sheriff’s office boat garage would be moved near the center of the marina while the new ship store
would be built on the southeast edge of the marina
19 hearing at the high school that relocating the ship store to the edge of the marina will help slow boaters’ speed as they enter the no-wake zone
Hislop said the ship store will be more accessible and safer for boaters to enter and exit the marina
Gas tanks would be located outside the store
In a letter from Post Falls Mayor Ron Jacobson to the Department of Lands
Jacobson offered his support for the application
“I have reviewed the applicant’s plans to reinvigorate the marina by providing additional slips and a publicly accessible boardwalk and believe that these improvements will benefit the residents of Post Falls by increasing public access to the river
which is part of what makes living in North Idaho so desirable,” Jacobson wrote
Jacobson told The Spokesman-Review the proposed Templin’s redevelopment
He said he’d love to see Templin’s brought back to the quality level that Bob Templin had it when he built it in the mid-1980s
“I think it’s a diamond in the rough,” Jacobson said
“It was at one point a very viable operation
“I think for anybody to come in like StanCraft is planning to do and renovate the project I think is going to be nothing but beneficial to the city.”
He said he understands concerns about the heavy traffic on the river
“That river has changed so much since I was a kid you wouldn’t even recognize it,” he said
I understand that the people along both sides of the river are concerned about boat traffic
requested last month’s public hearing in a letter to the Department of Lands
the residents voiced concerns about the additional boat slips and bright lighting on StanCraft’s waterfront
including the four residents who signed the objection letter
spoke in opposition to the application at last month’s hearing
The marina would expand farther into the river
further narrowing the river and causing more boat traffic and safety problems
A diagram in the application shows the narrowest point of the river at the marina would be 320 feet from the new ship store to the other side of the river
Sheryl Scofield told The Spokesman-Review her primary issue with the proposed expansion is it would encroach into water that does not belong to the marina
The application indicated the project would stay in the “original encroachment permit boundaries.”
resource supervisor at the Department of Lands’ Navigable Waterways program in North Idaho
said at the public hearing that the “logboom,” which the marina would expand to
“It’s historically only been the marina itself that sets the footprint,” Ahmer said
the new breakwater that they’re proposing would set the marina footprint since it’s incorporated into the marina with marina slips and it’s connected to shore.”
Ahmer said there are no rules for the Department of Lands to enforce when it comes to additional boat slips provided in the Spokane River or related to potentially increasing boat traffic
“While objectors have raised concerns regarding carrying capacity of the Spokane River and potential associated safety risk
there currently is no information in the record to show that these effects are likely to occur,” Ahmer said
Ahmer said the Department Lands can appreciate concerns about boat traffic
but the state agency did not receive comments from the county
sheriff’s office or other agencies with expertise about boater safety being jeopardized by additional boat slips
“With there currently being insufficient evidence in the record regarding any likely adverse impacts of lighting or increased boat traffic
in addition to there being no specific encroachment standards relating to those impacts for IDL to enforce
these concerns as presently stated in the record are likely not sufficient grounds for denial of the application,” he said
Sheryl Scofield told The Spokesman-Review there have been several unreported accidents and near-misses on the river that the sheriff’s office doesn’t know about
She said she also believed Idaho code goes against additional boat slips because the protection of recreation and “aesthetic beauty” of the river must be considered against the navigational and economic benefits of the proposal
“We say it’s profit versus the best for the river and for human life and safety,” Sheryl Scofield said
who lives about six houses down from the marina
was one of the residents who said 100 more boats on the water would worsen safety and soil erosion along waterfront properties like his
and I just don’t know how much more traffic it can handle,” he said
Sloan said he’s rooting for StanCraft as a whole
“I want them to succeed down there,” he said
we’ve always said it feels like kind of a diamond in the rough and it just needs a little shot in the arm.”

Synchronized video data from multiple camera views and marker-based data were simultaneously collected from 127 participants performing three repetitions of the DVJ. Lower limb joint angles and joint moments were calculated and compared between the markerless and marker-based systems. Root mean squared error values and Pearson correlation coefficients were used to quantify agreement between the systems.
Root mean squared error values of lower limb joint angles and joint moments were ≤ 9.61 degrees and ≤ 0.23 N×m/kg, respectively. Pearson correlation values between markered and markerless systems were 0.67-0.98 hip, 0.45-0.99 knee and 0.06-0.99 ankle for joint kinematics. Likewise, Pearson correlation values were 0.73-0.90 hip, 0.61-0.95 knee and 0.74-0.95 ankle for joint kinetics.
These results highlight the promising potential of markerless motion capture, particularly for measures of hip, knee and ankle rotations. Further research is needed to evaluate the viability of markerless ankle measures in the frontal plane to determine if differences in joint solvers are inducing unanticipated error.

Introduction: 3D Markerless motion capture technologies have advanced significantly over the last few decades to overcome limitations of marker-based systems
As markerless motion capture technologies develop and mature
there is increasing demand from the biomechanics community to provide kinematic and kinetic data with similar levels of reliability and accuracy as current reference standard marker-based 3D motion capture methods
The purpose of this study was to evaluate how a novel markerless system trained with both hand-labeled and synthetic data compares to lower extremity kinematic and kinetic measurements from a reference marker-based system during the drop vertical jump (DVJ) task
Methods: Synchronized video data from multiple camera views and marker-based data were simultaneously collected from 127 participants performing three repetitions of the DVJ
Lower limb joint angles and joint moments were calculated and compared between the markerless and marker-based systems
Root mean squared error values and Pearson correlation coefficients were used to quantify agreement between the systems
Results: Root mean squared error values of lower limb joint angles and joint moments were ≤ 9.61 degrees and ≤ 0.23 N×m/kg
Pearson correlation values between markered and markerless systems were 0.67-0.98 hip
0.45-0.99 knee and 0.06-0.99 ankle for joint kinematics
Pearson correlation values were 0.73-0.90 hip
0.61-0.95 knee and 0.74-0.95 ankle for joint kinetics
Discussion: These results highlight the promising potential of markerless motion capture
Further research is needed to evaluate the viability of markerless ankle measures in the frontal plane to determine if differences in joint solvers are inducing unanticipated error
Analysis of complex human movements provides critical insight across a broad range of health, disease, and performance-related applications. To generate such insights, researchers and clinicians frequently aim to associate both patterns of movement (kinematics), as well as internal and external forces and torques applied to the body (kinetics) with specific health-related conditions (Xu et al., 2023; Xu et al., 2024)
accurate and reliable measurement of kinematics through marker-based motion capture requires a dedicated laboratory space with advanced instrumentation operated by highly trained individuals
This process is exceedingly time-consuming and can significantly limit use in routine clinical and functional athletic assessments
One method to overcome the limitations of manual labeling is the use of optical motion capture systems to generate automated 3D labels for training, as demonstrated in HumanEva (Sigal et al., 2010), Human3.6M (Ionescu et al., 2014), and TotalCapture (Gilbert et al., 2019)
By projecting 3D labels onto 2D image frames
this technique enables efficient and consistent labeling of occluded points and additional body landmarks
motion capture-based datasets often lack the environmental and subject diversity seen in public datasets
such datasets can suffer from inherent errors associated with marker placement
In response to these challenges, synthetic datasets such as AGORA (Patel et al., 2021), SURREAL (Varol et al., 2017), and Infinite Form (Weitz et al., 2021) have been developed to provide diverse
automatically labeled training images at a large scale
Studies show that incorporating synthetic data into neural network training can reduce error in both 2D and 3D joint position measurements
the efficacy of synthetic datasets in reliably producing biomechanics metrics
It is uncertain whether markerless motion capture trained on synthetic data can achieve the necessary accuracy and fidelity across all three planes of motion to evaluate complex dynamic movements
the DVJ is an ideal movement task for comparing marker-based and markerless motion capture systems
the purpose of this study was to evaluate 3D kinematics and kinetics calculated from a markerless motion capture and compare to kinematics and kinetics obtained from a marker-based system for the DVJ
We hypothesized that the markerless system
would produce 3D kinematic and kinetic measures that closely align with marker-based data
particularly in non-sagittal planes of motion
due to the enhanced representation of these planes of motion provided by synthetic datasets
Video-based markerless cameras and a marker-based motion capture system (both Qualisys AB, Göteborg, Sweden) were used to capture movement data. The marker-based system used a set of 55 retroreflective full-body markers to capture the DVJ movement (DiCesare et al., 2019)
with a focus on achieving high accuracy in lower extremity tracking
a static trial was captured with the participant in a T-pose
The markerless setup used 12 Qualisys Miqus cameras recording at a frequency of 120 Hz
while optical marker-based motion capture was collected using 80-Qualisys cameras at 240 Hz
Two force plates (AMTI; Advanced Medical Technology
MA) were located in the center of the capture volume and recorded ground reaction forces (GRF) and center of pressure at 1,200 Hz
Qualisys Track Manager software (Qualisys AB
Sweden) calibrated the global 3D reference frame for the markerless video system and force plates such that they coincided with the marker-based global 3D reference frame and has built-in functionality to synchronize the data streams in time
The optical training dataset obtained during marker-based motion capture data collection consists of images of individuals performing various functional and sports-related movements. Images are labeled using a patented approach that identifies 85 3D anatomical locations based on model pose estimations which are reprojected into a 2D space (Templin et al., 2023)
The 85 keypoints consist of the same 25 keypoints used in the COCO dataset plus additional keypoints throughout the body to ensure that each of the following body segments has at least three attached to them: head
This allowed for full characterization of six degrees of freedom for each segment
the CNN uses each input image to produce a collection of probability maps which correspond to each anatomical landmark and represent the likelihood the landmark is present in any given pixel of the input image
The architecture of the network utilizes multiple concurrent branches at different resolutions that connect at several stages to capture fine-grain and coarse-grain features
This allows the network to correctly locate smaller landmarks such as within the hand while preserving its ability to represent larger relationships such as the ones between limbs
A mean-squared error cost function is used to measure error between the output of the neural network and the ground truth landmark locations to update the network weights
The neural network was trained until the performance on the validation set converged
Ankle subtalar angle includes both transverse and frontal plane motion but for reporting purposes are included in the ab/adduction angles
This model is scaled to match each participant’s anthropometry by using median segment lengths of each segment during each trial as determined by keypoint locations
the pose of the model in each frame is globally optimized using inverse kinematics via the Python Application Programing Interface with the OpenSim Inverse Kinematics (IK) tool
All marker-based motion capture data were quality controlled, and any gaps in marker tracking were corrected. Next force plate data were filtered with a 4th-order bidirectional Butterworth filter with a 50 Hz low-pass cutoff frequency for further processing (Roewer et al., 2014)
Marker and markerless data were filtered with a 4th-order bidirectional Butterworth filter with a 6 Hz low-pass cutoff frequency in Python (version 3.7)
Filtered data were used as input for the IK tool in the scaled model as described above
The kinematic output from both markerless and marker-based systems was used as input along with the GRF collected from force plates to calculate joint moments using the OpenSim Inverse Dynamics (ID) Tool
Each trial for both systems was normalized to 101 points during the stance phase of the DVJ
The beginning of the stance phase was determined by the first timepoint when either force plate recorded a measurement of >10 N
and the end of the stance phase was determined by the first timepoint after the starting point when both force plates recorded a measurement of <10 N
The 10 N threshold was used to identify the start and end of the stance phase because it represents a point where the GRF becomes minimal
a “moderate” fit was defined as an RMSE value that was ≤10°
and a “poor” fit was defined as an RMSE value that was >10°
without an established consensus in the scientific community
“good” fit was defined as an RMSE value ≤0.15 N⋅m/kg degrees
a “moderate” fit was defined as an RMSE value that was ≤0.30 N⋅m/kg
and a “poor” fit was defined as an RMSE value that was >0.30 N⋅m/kg degrees
Markerless kinematics demonstrated good to moderate agreement with marker-derived data (Figure 2), with average RMSE values of 2.52–9.21° for hip, knee, and ankle angles (Table 1)
and ankle values had good to moderate fits with RMSE (≤6.93°) and NRMSE (≤0.11) and very strong correlations (≥0.97)
Frontal and transverse plane knee and hip kinematics also demonstrated good to moderate fits with RMSE values (≤5.68°)
and moderate correlations (0.45–0.69)
The ankle subtalar angle had a moderate RMSE (9.61)
Mean ± 1 standard deviation of the time history trajectories of lower-limb DVJ kinematics measured by the marker-based (black) or markerless (orange) system
Ankle Ab/Adduction is the subtalar angle which includes both transverse and frontal plane motion
RMSE ±1 standard deviation and Pearson correlation ±1 standard deviation of markerless relative to marker-based system for lower limb DVJ kinematics
Very strong to moderate agreement was observed for hip, knee, and ankle moments (Figure 3). Very strong correlations (≥0.90) were observed for the sagittal plane hip, knee, and ankle moments (Table 2)
Strong correlations (0.71–0.78) were observed in the transverse and frontal plane hip
While the frontal plane knee moment exhibited a moderate correlation (0.61)
Moderate agreement with respect to RMSE was observed in hip sagittal (0.23 N⋅m/kg)
and knee frontal (0.16 N⋅m/kg) plane moments
All other degrees of freedom showed good agreement (RMSE values ≤0.15 N⋅m/kg)
Mean ± 1 standard deviation of the time history trajectories of lower limb DVJ kinetics measured by the marker-based (black) or markerless (orange) system
RMSE ±1 standard deviation and Pearson correlation ±1 standard deviation of markerless relative to marker-based system for lower limb DVJ kinetics
The present study is the first peer-reviewed evaluation of the ENABLE markerless motion capture system compared to a marker-based system
ENABLE has several distinct characteristics relative to other markerless systems
the dataset used to train the underlying neural network includes 85 keypoints
with at least three keypoints on each body segment
which is essential for non-sagittal plane tracking
roughly half of the training set consists of synthetic data which be generated quickly and without human intervention
ENABLE uses musculoskeletal modeling to biomechanically constrain the kinematic output to be physiologically reasonable
The purpose of the study was to assess the 3D kinematics and derived kinetics from ENABLE relative to a traditional marker-based system
Strong correlations were observed in hip (flexion/extension
knee (flexion/extension and internal external rotation)
and ankle (plantar/dorsiflexion and subtalar angle) joint kinetics and hip
While moderate associations were observed with knee ab/adduction and internal rotation angles and only subtalar ankle angle had a weak association
The difference between the present study and Uhlrich et al
is that all our landmarks were inferred directly from the video
created a separate neural network to identify additional landmarks exclusively from sparse keypoint labels
marker-based systems also require substantial manual effort to post-process and gap-fill missing marker trajectories
Analogous manual editing of the markerless points was not used to augment the ENABLE data processing
but in the future could be an added feature for users who are experienced with such data post-processing and would like to further improve accuracy
Despite the limitations of marker-based tracking
it is considered the standard to acquire accurate non-invasive kinematic information in the biomechanics community due to the difficultly of collecting data using more accurate methods such as biplane fluoroscopy or the use of bone pins
These methods are often discouraged from use because biplane fluoroscopy uses excessive radiation to capture full-body motion and bone pins are invasive and may impede motion due to discomfort
Our hope is that the results of this study may help to introduce the biomechanics community to markerless tracking methodologies
which have a desirable ease of use at the time of data capture
to our knowledge the present study is the first to compare 3D kinetics derived from markerless and marker-based system for a landing and jumping task
and ankle moments were strongly correlated between markerless and marker-based inputs
the joint moment correlation was greater than the correlation observed for the corresponding joint angle
Despite the trend observed with non-sagittal kinematic data
non-sagittal plane correlations did not show a reduction with increasingly distal joints but instead showed moderate to strong correlations
This finding demonstrates that despite low to moderate kinematic correlations for some joints
the joint moments required to produce the respective motions exhibited similar trends
The two greatest differences observed between correlation values of kinematics relative to kinetics were at the knee adduction joint (kinematic correlation = 0.45
delta = 0.16) and the ankle subtalar joint (kinematic correlation = 0.06
markerless motion capture systems have the potential to vastly expand the impact of 3D motion analysis used across the many patient and athlete populations
This study provides additional insight into the utility of using a markerless system to measure lower extremity kinematics and kinetics
Further verification of markerless-derived biomechanical data will help demonstrate validity and practicality in translation settings
Development and validation of markerless systems will lead to more ubiquitous
routine quantification of biomechanics in non-laboratory settings (e.g.
investigation into the benefit of using synthetic training data in other environments to further improve markerless motion capture system performance is warranted

Dave wrote a series of fantasy stories with his grandchildren as heroes
He also wrote an autobiography and a biography of Mickey’s life that were shared with his family and friends
In spite of physical limitations during the past four years
David remained involved and connected with his family through Saturday morning Zoom meetings and daily phone calls

From loyal reader and rabid fisherman Michael Sopocy: “I saw you were looking for the top fisherman from Illinois
Jim Templin is by far the best fisherman to hail from Illinois
He guides up north and competes regularly in tournaments on the Fox Chain O’ Lakes
He never did national stuff because he values his family and loves taking clients out to catch fish
I would strongly recommend doing a story on him.”
I have to say that I was completely underwhelmed by the response I received for nominations for “best fisherman,” but I know Templin
and I am glad that you threw his name into the hopper
because I believe he is worthy of the honor
known as “Jimmy T,” is an accomplished guide
He started guiding about the same time he began working behind the counter at the Ed Shirley tackle store in Morton Grove
The store went belly up in 2007 and Jimmy T bought it
Templin’s first foray into guiding was simply taking friends and bait shop customers out for an evening of fishing and fishing instruction
He’d ask the anglers to buy dinner and fill his boat’s gas tank
he realized that he could charge a fee for putting clients on fish
He was always helping his clients to find fish and he was exceptional at teaching fishermen how to become better fishermen
Teaching the average angler to become more proficient is the thing about guiding that Templin loves best
Unlike most every other guide on the water
“You’ll find me sitting in the middle of the boat
I’ve had clients who want to watch me fish
but usually I do the watching while I am teaching
If I only have one client in the boat with me
it’s about me teaching the client,” Templin said
They are the ones who make the sport more popular by teaching young or inexperienced fishermen how to be successful
I used to think that if someone bought a bait shop because they thought it would allow them to fish more
Bait store owners hardly ever fish because they are in their stores for endless hours
Bait store owners rarely guide and the ones who do are nowhere near as good a Templin is
who has opened a second location of his Fishtech tackle store
has developed a pair of excellent managers for his Morton Grove and Southern Wisconsin locations
Jimmy T is one of the legendary “Chain Rats,” who fish a heavy weekend and weeknight tournament schedule of 37 events a year
He finishes in the money more often than not
he feels that he learns a lot on the tournament scene and that knowledge makes him a better teacher for his guide customers and his tackle store customers
The bottom line is that Jimmy Templin believes the key to fishing is knowledge and education and that’s what makes him the best fisherman in Illinois
