SOURCE Museum of the African Diaspora
Supports Two-Year Storytelling Project 'Crossing Fences' Opening Feb. 27
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Thanks to a generous multi-year grant by The James Irvine Foundation's Exploring Engagement Fund, the Museum of the African Diaspora (www.moadsf.org) in San Francisco is pleased to present I've Known Rivers: MoAD Stories Project – Crossing Fences: Conversations & Stories with African American Men Across the Generations on February 27.
"We are grateful for the support of The James Irvine Foundation which allows us to present this remarkable project and engage new audiences," said Linda Harrison, Executive Director of MoAD. "Crossing Fences, inspired by August Wilson's landmark play, Fences, is a unique two-year collection of important and impactful stories from local men of color that spans generations."
Crossing Fences is the latest in the two-volume collection of stories that enhance the museum's digital archive I've Known Rivers Project. The first-voice stories are those of a dozen multi-generational men of African descent who live in Oakland. Their previously untold experiences capture the essence of what it means to be Black and male in America. The conversations and storytelling have been adapted for the stage and will be performed in faith-based organizations.
"This is undoubtedly the most ambitious and exciting volume of I've Known Rivers stories we've ever produced," said Cheo Tyehimba-Taylor, Founder and Project Director of the Stories Project. "We're using Irvine's Exploring Engagement Fund to connect and interact with new audiences to record, commission-for-performance and theatrically present these meaningful stories that rarely get told."
The James Irving Foundation is a philanthropic nonprofit organization to benefit Californains by promoting social equity and enriching the cultural and civic life through grants in the arts, youth and education, and state governance and civic engagement.
About the Museum of the African Diaspora
The Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) showcases the history, art and cultural richness that resulted from the dispersal of Africans throughout the world, with innovative and engaging exhibitions, education and public programs. MoAD opened in 2005 as a cornerstone to the revitalization of downtown San Francisco on the ground floor of the St. Regis Hotel and Residences at 685 Mission Street. As a nonprofit organization, the museum's operations and programs are supported by grants and contributions from public and private sources. Visit www.moadsf.org.

The semifinals for the 2008 Beijing Olympics Mens Basketball tournament are set, and the U.S. is only one win away from being guarenteed a medal. But in their way, they have Argentina, and even if they beat the gold medal winner from Athens, they may have to face Spain, who won the FIBA 2006 World Championships.
The road to redemption is nearing a happy ending for the U.S. squad. After a very disappointing bronze medal in 2004, and another bronze in the 2006 World Championships, the U.S. began it's path to international basketball glory with a win at the FIBA Americas Championship just one year ago.
They were dominant last year, going 7-0, and than defeating Puerto Rico in the semifinals by a score of 135-91 and than Argentina in the finals by a score of 118-81. They completely, and utterly, creamed both squads, and it looked like the U.S. was headed to the right direction for these Olympics.
Even though they were still doubted coming into these Olympics, I believe that the Redeem Team has demolished those doubts, and any expectations set for them. Their stifling defense and thundering offense has provided blowout after blowout. The only "close" game the Redeem Team has had was versus Australia, when they only won by 11 against an Aussie team without their best player in Andrew Bogut.
The U.S. faced off with the Australia in the their first game in the medal rounds. The Australia National team hung close to the U.S. early in the game, as they were only down by 1 point entering the second quarter. The U.S. than outscored the Aussies by 11 in the 2nd, and took a 12 point lead at the half.
The 3rd quarter was all U.S. as their suffocating D held Australia under the 20 point mark for a second consecutive quarter, and the Redeem Team offense exploded for 34 points. Australia was only outscored by 3 in the 4th, but it was too little to late. The U.S. already had the game won.
Kobe Bryant was sticking to defense thus far in the Olympics, but he had a great offensive game, with 25 points. LeBron had 16, 'Melo had 15, Deron Williams and Chris Bosh both had 10. Tayshaun Prince had 9, Dwayne Wade and Dwight Howard both scored 8, while Michael Redd had 5. Rounding out the scoring: Jason Kidd and Carlos Boozer had 4, and Chris Paul scored 2.
I think the key to this game for the Redeem Team was all their rebounding. They crashed the glass all game long, and out rebounded the Aussie team 57-28 (19 of the 57 were offensive boards). 7 players rebounded 5 or more. LeBron lead the team with 9, Wade had 8, Howard and Paul had 7, Bosh had 6, and 'Melo and Kobe had 5 (4 of Bryant's were offensive.
If I had to choose a Player of the Game for the Redeem Team, it would be LeBron. He scored 16 points, rebounded 9, dished out 3 assists and had 4 steals. One bleak stat for him is his 1-4 showing at the free throw line.
Up next is Argentina, whom the U.S. have been able to handle in recent years. They whupped them last year (118-81, as stated before) and are poised to once again, handle the Argentinian National Team.
It doesn't look like anyone can stop the Redeem Team now, in the quest for gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

Ah, the maligned fruitcake. Many store-bought varieties, stuffed with unrecognizable candied bits, deserve their bad reputation—but not these wonderful cakes, made with a generous serving of dried fruit and candied orange peel in a light batter. There's only one trick: buy the best-quality, moist dried and candied fruit you can afford.

In Premiere Elements 10 (for Mac), I'm using the dip-to-black transition to end a short music video. No matter how long I make the last clip or how long I set for the duration of the transition itself, it dips to black within 15 - 30 frames. I need a slow, linear-looking fade to black -- on the order of 3 to 4 seconds -- and this seems to be impossible with Premiere Elements. Even if I make the final clip 5 seconds and make the dip-to-black transition cover the last four seconds of the clip, for example, the screen is invariably completely black well before it even reaches the halfway point of the transition in the timeline. I've never seen anything like this with other programs. I see no way to adjust the linearity of the effect -- only the duration and starting and ending percentages.
Has anyone else encountered this and is there a solution...?
Try stretching it wider on the timeline.
As I show you in my book, the longer the transition (or title, for that matter) the slower the animation.
If you find that the Transitions are too short, you can set the default in Edit>Preferences, to be longer, or shorter.
Good luck,
That's not what I'm seeing; as I said, I can make the transition 60 frames (for example) but the actual fade takes place very quickly and non-linearly -- maybe over only the middle 15 frames. I know how to change the duration of the transition by either changing the default or by stretching it in the timeline, but that's immaterial. That changes the length of the whole transition but seems to have no bearing upon the rate -- I just end up with more light frames at the beginning and more black frames at the end. This is a bug. Does anyone actually do three-second fade-outs in Premiere Elements...?
OK, then tell us about the Handles on the two Clips - the Frames before the In Point of the following Clip, and after the Out Point of the leading Clip.
Good luck,
Thanks, Bill. The handles for the transition are a red "C" at the beginning with double-headed arrow in the middle (open toward the fade) and a red backwards "C" at the end of the transition (open toward the fade). The transition is placed at the end of the final clip; there's no clip after the intended fade-to-black. There is a separate set of identical handles for the ends of the clip itself. I hope this is what you were asking for...
Sorry, Bill -- didn't know the terminology. It doesn't matter if there are seconds worth of hidden frames on either end. These are stills imported as three- to five-second clips; they then have pan-and-zoom applied so they are like video clips. But it doesn't matter if I shorten them (to leave ample frames) or if I lengthen them -- the fade-to-black still does not work as it should.
I'm not sure why making the transition longer isn't working for you. It certainly should. (It does on my computer.)
But you can also try double-clicking on the transition and manually changing its duration in the Transition Properties panel.
Lengthening the transition will most certainly slow down the dip in and out of black. But if you're concerned that it's not staying black long enough, that's another problem -- and not one you can fix without creating the transition manually.
I know it's not directly answering the Dip To Black transition issue, but couldn't the OP just use the clip opacity and adjust the keyframe to be the length desired?
I think with the keyframes, you can also change the keyframing from linear to Bezier (or other?) if the default linear fade isn't exactly what was needed (although I forget how to do that).
Got you, and thanks for the clarification.
If adjusting the Dip-to-Black Transition is not working correctly for you, I was about to recommend Ed's suggestion, but he posted that, before I could think of it.
Keyframing the Opacity will do the same thing, and can be infinitely adjusted for the pace of darkening, to the degree of darkening.
Also, can you post a screen-cap of your Timeline, with those Still Image Clips showing. There might be something that others will see to help you.
Good luck,
Thanks, Bill and Ed -- that's a good idea about the opacity. I assume that the black then shows through. I'm attaching a screen grab, as you suggested; it has the last few clips and only one of the audio tracks. The playhead (or whatever it's called in Premiere -- the vertical red line) is in the final clip and that's where the issue is. The clip starts with a brief dip-to-white (8 frames; looks like a flash) to sync with the beat, is then "normal" for < second, and then has slow (several-second) fade to black. The playhead is roughly in the middle of the dip-to-black (fade-to-black) transition -- yet at this point the clip is already completely black! (You can't tell that, of course, from the grab but I positioned the playhead there just to point that out). But I'll experiment with opacity... Thanks!
The "playhead" is called the CTI (Current Time Indicator) and is the little blue 5-sided polygon. The red line is the Edit Line, and is attached to the CTI. [Note: That is how it has been deliniated for many versions of both PrE and PrPro, however, as of PrPro CS 6, Adobe decided to change the name to: Playhead. That renaming might transfer to the next version of PrE, in the Help file?]
It appears that your CTI (we'll use the existing nomenclature, at least for now) is in about the middle of your Transition, which I assume is a Dip-to-Black. It also appears that your Opacity rubberband is showing 100% Opacity. Is that correct?
I would do a test. Do a Save_As, and increment your Project's file name, so you do not overwrite what you have, and so that the new Project stays Open. Delete your Dip-to-Black Transition. Select your Clip, click on the Effects Tab, and then Edit Effects. If you do not see the Effects Control Panel, WITH its little Timeline, look at the upper-right of the Effects Control Panel, and click on the little "clock" to Show Keyframes.
Then, just like you did with your Audio, with its Keyframes, add Opacity Keyframes. You will want to twirl open Opacity, to see the slider. Add the first Keyframe with the little clock next to Opacity, where you want the Clip to have the last of its 100% Opacity, then navigate to the point that you want it to have 0% Opacity (black). Render that part of your Timeline by setting the WAB (Work Area Bar) over just that part of the Timeline and hit Enter. Play that Clip, watching the change in Opacity. Does that get you what you want?
Note: the Keyframes, that you initially apply, will be Linear in their operation. You can alter their Interpolation, by Rt-clicking on them. You might find that Linear is just fine, or that you like, say Ease Out for the first, and then Ease In for the last. For Opacity, I normally like Linear best, but for Title Fades, might go with Bezier, or just Ease Out/Ease In. That choice is up to you, and the look that you are seeking.
Good luck, and let us know how the Opacity Keyframes look.
I am having the exact issue. I used premiere on my PC at home and when I got a Macbook at work, this issue arrised. I set the transition to start or end at 50%, but it'll always start at 0% or end at 100%. I've used this correctly on my PC, so I'm not sure what the issue is. I have been changing the opacity to allow for dips, but it would be nice if the transition worked as intended to save me some time/layers/hassle.

I own two Peterson Strobe units. The Strobo clip is # 2. It is a convenient item for a quick and initial tune when doing test(s) on repairs.
Excellent tuner. My guitars have never sounded sweeter.
I've been playing, repairing and setting up guitars for 20 years now. I still can't believe how much better any guitar sounds after tuning up with the sweetened tuning. My guitars sing like never before, get yourself one of these.
Recebi da Stewmac muito rápido. O produto é leve, prático e muito preciso. Muito fácil de usar. Gostei. Recomendo.
Fast and easy connect and tuning check, so much better than connecting up a cable to a standard tuner, also love the strobe function..
The StroboClip is a super accurate, easy to use tuner. Since I deal with several different instruments/tunings, I really like the sweetened tunings feature. I had a question about the use of the Dobro settings for Open E tuning on electric guitar and the folks at Peterson responded within the hour! As it turned out, it works well for the app I needed to go with. I would definitely suggest this product to any one, especially if you have a sensitive ear. You'll appreciate the difference.
As a performer and part - time repairer of about 15 yrs, I have had my fair share of tuners. After years of stomps in dodgy loop paths or dubiously balanced on top of my tilted amps, finally decided to try a clip on. Tried out a few offerings, some from highly respected brands b/f having a punt on this. I have never experienced a more accurate tuner in my life. When checking my old intonation setups with this I found that I was up to 5 hz out!! No wonder they were so hit and miss.
The sweetening temperings quickly make my guitars sing in a way that my previous tweakings could only rarely achieve. Great to use on stage. This little guy is the go - Buy It !!
Ps: Fast delivery. Got it at a fraction of the cost I could get it here in oz, cheers :0)
I have been using a Peterson Strobostomp for a couple of years, but needed an equally accurate clip-on device, so that I wouldn't have to carry around the stomp when I just wanted to go "light" with my acoustic guitar. I got it!
Equally accurate thanks to the same "strobo method" of tuning, folds nicely in the box inside the guitar case, very sensitive yet isolated enough(I frequently tune-up with it sitting right next to a drummer playing), rugged, easy to operate, visible in any conditions. You can safely rely on it to substitute for ear tuning in noisy, live situations.
It is really worth the money spent!
Thanks Stewmac!
The new Peterson StroboClip is by far the Best clip on tuner I've ever used or owned! Despite the fact that it was backordered for months, it certainly was well worth the wait!
First of all, it comes immaculately packaged in an cool aluminum box. The clip itself is great in that it literally can be tilted and angled into just about every conceivable position you will need to be able to see the display clearly.
I already own the Strobo Flip, and the Strobo Clip is just as accurate as the larger home unit.
Most incredibly, this little unit has Sweetened tunings for even MORE instruments than the StroboFlip--including Ukulele, Mandolin, etc!
Overall, I don't believe you can go wrong with this amazing clip...I'm going to order a 2nd one as a backup and an extra to give to my friends as a gift!!
This thing has spoiled me now with perfect tuning. I had seen my local luthier/repairman using the $200 version in his shop for setting intonation, and when I saw that Stew Mac had this one, I had to have it. It's easy to learn to use, and really makes the difference--and to have this ability in a clip-on version is heaven. With my other clip-on tuner, I could finish tuning and then would have to tweak it further using my ears--not now. Thank you Stew Mac!

Joe the Plumber speaks out on Foreign Policy
Normally open July 4th only---the one day a year when partisan politics, religion, etc. are acceptable topics on this Board (within reason). The forum is now closed.
One of the more bogus criticisms of Obama is his associations, especially when you consider that McCain has associations with people that are every bit as controversial as Obama's.
Jeremiah Wright = John Hagee
Michael Pfleger = Rod Parsely
Bill Ayers = Richard Quinn
Rashid Khalidi = Anthony Bouscaren
This selective outrage amazes me.
Exactly. There actually ARE left-wing political radicals in this country, but we treat them like they are flat-earthers. Almost no one knows their names, and they struggle to get 1% of the vote. And they would uniformly reject Obama as hopelessly "mainstream," "corporate," etc., etc.
Does anyone do that anymore? I was in England in 1979 and (in the crowd I was associating with) Thatcher was routinely called a "fascist"--with great gusto and repeatedly. I remember a little bit of that with Reagan...but it was hard to hear it without laughing, at least a bit. Has anyone said that about Bush II? Bush and Cheney are guilty of many things, but anything ressembling old-fashioned "fascism"? I don't think so...
Trig, trig, trig, I am having trouble fending off all these slings and arrows.
I don't know why you are hung up on arugula. Did you miss my explanation that this is just an example of an incident that got huffaws from chicken-fried steak eaters?
Heck, I didn't even know what arugula was until Obama commented on the price of it. Relax, his consumption of arugula does not enter into my assessment of his candidacy.
You are right about the guffaws. Maybe. I don't know if is either is a word and I am wearing out my Websters.
I don't know why it is impossible to believe someone doesn't know how many houses his extended family owns. Heck, I am not even sure who owns the house my ex lives in that I paid for and maintain.
Uh oh! Lonewolf, it seems that your guy may have outsmarted himself this time.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/2 ... 38606.html
Have I failed to mention that McCain is "my guy" by default only as the best of two depressingly weak choices ? His resume is rife with "stuff" I do not agree with.
This was obviously before he was recognised as a bad guy. When Obama met him he was far badder. This will not help deflect Obama's obvious attempts at fraternizing with terrorists.

Thanksgiving is a mere two weeks away, a fact that is scarier than any monster you might have run into last week on Halloween.
Mark Gaier and Clark Frasier
Sam Hayward
While some Maine restaurants do stay open on the fourth Thursday in November, most close their doors, and it makes you wonder: Is Thanksgiving a busman's holiday for chefs?
Do they hang up their pots at work only to have to take them down again at home? Does their family expect them to create some spectacular spread every year like the ones you see in the Thanksgiving issues of glossy food magazines?
Or are they allowed to chill on the sofa, for once, and watch football while someone else does all the work?
I asked a wide range of southern Maine chefs how they celebrate the most food-centric holiday of the year. Their answers, gathered by both phone and email, were enlightening and entertaining.
I also asked them if they have a special dish they simply have to prepare every Thanksgiving -- perhaps something that brings back childhood memories, or something that has become a family tradition?
And I wondered: Do they allow themselves to indulge in any guilty pleasures on the holiday? Do chefs with refined palates ever eat the dreaded green bean casserole or sweet potatoes with marshmallows on top?
Most of them wouldn't cop to the casserole or the sweet potatoes, at least not publicly. But it turns out Maine chefs do partake in some interesting culinary extravagances that go beyond the usual Thanksgiving fare.
Here's hoping their responses entertain and inspire you as you plan your own Thanksgiving table.
DEMOS REGAS, Emilitsa, Portland
(Thanksgiving) is a real holiday for me in the sense that I am out of the restaurant. I have a great team in the kitchen, including my son Nikos, but I insist on going in every day myself. In fact, now that we are opening for lunch, I am there even more. We are all about philoxenia, which literally translated means taking care of strangers and is the Greek concept of hospitality. The door is open to everyone. It is a way of life for us, it's in our blood.
So on Thanksgiving, my brother John and I actually go kayaking to escape a little. For us it's a day about being in nature and being grateful. I don't cook up a storm on the Thanksgiving holiday. I do that every day. The truth is that on Thanksgiving, we eat these special Coney hot dogs from my other son George's restaurant in Duluth. I'm not kidding. He overnights them to us with this phenomenal chili minced onion sauce. We love them. In a way, it connects our family by food.
Guilty pleasure: I grew up with flavorful food, whether in my dad's restaurant, Regas Cafe, where he cooked "American" food or upstairs in our home where my mom was the chef for all us kids and anyone else who dropped in. While we loved Dad's classic hot turkey sandwich with brown gravy, we were partial to Mom's home cooking: Marinated lamp chops, moussaka with lots of bechamel, baklava, and the works. We started in the morning and literally grazed all day on spanakopita, hot bread out of the oven. That's not to say we weren't intrigued by homemade American-style pies. At the restaurant, really a diner, Dad served mile-high pumpkin as well as banana cream for Thanksgiving. They were nothing like the Greek desserts we had as kids. That probably influenced my guilty pleasure for the holidays -- a festive after-dinner drink as an aperitif. I like Kahlua with metaxa, a Greek brandy, with whipped cream and all. It's like having dessert before dinner. Yes, I'm aware these are disparaged as "girly" drinks in some circles. I'm okay with that. In fact, I think I'll pair one with a Coney dog.

I first visited Ohio City in the early '80s with my parents and six siblings to shop at the West Side Market, and I remember my immigrant mother and first-generation father sharing their love of the old-world vibrancy of the market. I also remember how dilapidated the surrounding neighborhood was — but how it had a soul and energy that the insipid suburbs lacked.
Fast forward to the early '90s. I was studying urban planning at Cleveland State University's Urban Studies College, and I had a number of opportunities to study aboard. There was a trip to my family's farm in Ireland and later a summer in Poland, along with more than a dozen backpacking trips to Europe, Asia, South America, the Middle East and all across North America. I'd become fascinated with cities and the way the best of them can make the lives of their citizens robust and happy.
These travels inspired new ideas to bring back home and have also made me love Cleveland all the more. It seems that the people who complain about Cleveland are the ones who don't have a passport.
The rebirth begins
I opened my first restaurant on a whim during my junior year at CSU. After an eight-year run, CSU refused to renew the lease and I was on the hunt for a new location. After considering cities across the country and overseas, I realized how lucky we were to live in Cleveland at that moment in time. The opportunity present in this "post-industrial frontier" was astounding, and there was no better example than Ohio City. Wanting to control our real estate, my business partners and I were able to purchase the real estate for our first Ohio City venture — McNulty's Bier Markt, Bar Cento and Speakeasy — for $400,000.
That's less than my Manhattan friends were paying for a closet-sized condo. The year was 2003, and people all over thought we were crazy to invest in blighted Ohio City. They thought we were completely insane when we bought the building across the street that was condemned and vacant to open Market Garden Brewery.
Then something happened: We were joined by many other like-minded entrepreneurs who opened fantastic owner-operated businesses like Crop Bistro, Soho Kitchen, Bonbon Pastry, Joy Machines Bike Shop, Johnnyville Slugger Custom Baseball Bats, Vision Yoga and many more.
The skeptics went quiet when they saw that the rising tide actually was lifting all ships. The urban pioneering Conway brothers of Great Lakes Brewing Co. saw record sales at their 25-year-old brewpub. The 101-year-old West Side Market hasn't been this busy in decades. And now our biggest challenge in Ohio City is finding parking for the thousands of cars that visit each week.
But something else happened too. All of a sudden, everyone wanted in on Ohio City. The rent on my one bedroom apartment above Third Federal Savings & Loan went up to $1,075 per month and a years-long waiting list formed for housing in the neighborhood.
As of this writing, there was only one available storefront north of Lorain Avenue and nearly 500 residential units are under construction or shovel-ready within a 10-minute bike ride. I just bought a scruffy piece of land a three-minute walk away and will build seven fee-simple townhomes where my mortgage will be less than my current rent. Naysayers will cry "gentrification," progressive thinkers will see that progress and revitalization is happening at a pace and scale rarely seen.
Recognizing the need to diversify Ohio City's retail so it's not simply a restaurant/bar/brewpub district, we are actively promoting and collaborating with other forms of retail. And we're putting our money where our mouths are by purchasing the Culinary Arts Building on West 24th Street and working to convert it to a 43,000-square-foot fermentation facility with a retail store open six days a week selling our house-made beer, whiskey, cheese, charcuterie, kombucha, vinegar, pickles and so on. We'll also offer tours, classes, cooking demonstrations and culinary training programs on site.
Get back on your feet
So what does the future hold for Ohio City?
Now that the commercial corridor is vibrant and largely full, the big push is on housing. As the oldest residential neighborhood in Cleveland, we've got an amazing stock of beautiful historic homes. While most have been painstakingly restored, there are still historic restoration opportunities. New construction — both for sale and for rent — is where we can bring in the thousands of housing units that are in demand. I'm in the process of buying buildable land within a 15-minute bike ride of the West Side Market to meet the huge demand for housing close to the energy of West 25th Street.
There is much concern voiced about the high demand for parking in Ohio City. While it's a great problem to have, it also performs double duty as a motivation to build out our neighborhood densely and vertically, with a strong bent toward public transport, protected bike lanes and walkable areas. When I move into the new townhomes in Duck Island (just next to the Velvet Tango Room), my walk to work will go from crossing the street to a whopping three minutes. And what was once a blighted piece of derelict land at the corner of Abbey Road and Columbus Avenue will soon be home to seven townhomes.
Sometimes people cringe when they hear words like density, walkability and bike lanes. Funny how they love these things in cities like Paris that were designed before the automobile became the exclusive focus of city planners. It's ironic when the same people that are skeptical of bicycle commuting in the winter would think nothing of skiing at sub-zero temperatures and enjoying a beer après-skiing ankle deep in snow. Maybe it's time we start living the lifestyle we so admire when we holiday overseas. Or more likely, it's getting back to Cleveland's roots.
Ohio City was once a dense, vibrant, walkable neighborhood with department stores, hardware shops, dentists, doctors, taverns and breweries galore. I hope it will be once again. We certainly are well on our way ... and the best is yet to come! ●

If there was any worry that the quality of The Walking Dead would decrease after the first episode, then Starved for Help should come as a relief. Not only is this second installment a gripping mystery, but it also forces the player to make some genuinely tough decisions. With a number of exciting twists and turns, Telltale Games shows us what they are capable of with this engrossing episode.
Before we get too deep into this review, let me warn you up front that there will be a whole lot of episode one spoilers. It goes without saying that if you haven't played the first episode, then this review is not the place to start. Go play The Walking Dead: A New Day right now, I'll wait for you.
Three months have taken place since the events of the first episode. Lee, Clementine and the rest of the survivors have managed to keep themselves alive, if only barely. Food is starting to run low and morale is at an all-time low. To make matters worse, Lee found more survivors in the woods, which means more mouths to feed. The zombie threat still exists, but right now the real worry is of people dying of starvation.
As luck would have it, a pair of strangers happens upon the camp looking for gasoline. Better still, these two come with the promise of food and water. Lee and his group are told about a dairy just down the way, the answer to all of their prayers. Unfortunately there's just one catch -- the dairy is surrounded by forest bandits that are making it tough on the nice family living inside.
Before long Lee gets wrapped up in helping them, but things are not what they appear. When one of the survivors is injured, the helpful family starts acting funny. They lock up the barn and won't let anybody in the house, sending Kenny into a paranoid fit. Is there something devious going on here? What is tightly locked inside the barn? And why won't the middle-aged women let Lee see his injured buddy? All of these questions are answered in this two hour episode.
Much like the first installment, Starved for Help is split up between quick time events and traditional point and click adventure gameplay. There are moments where all you have to do is talk somebody out of doing something stupid, while other times you'll collect and use items scattered throughout the environment. You'll be presented with a number of tough decisions, including deciding who gets to eat for the day.
The choices you make are important and will carry over into the next episode (and beyond). That was certainly the case with this episode, which saw me denied help because of things I did and said in the pilot. This episode is designed to create friction in the group, something that I suspect will linger far beyond the next installment. Before the end of the game you'll have to make far tougher choices than who eats.
This episode is decidedly darker in tone than the pilot. The fact that only a few zombies ("walkers") are spotted doesn't mean you are off the hook. This is an episode that shows the worst in human beings, and not always in the way you expect. At the same time, the game asks you to understand the plight of these people. The world has been turned upside down and survival is now job number one. While there is still a line between good and bad, you can tell that it's getting blurrier with each passing episode.
The gameplay and presentation remains unchanged from the first episode, so expect a lot of wandering around and conversations. Thankfully, the game's writing is sharp enough to keep me from noticing the lulls in the action. I'm always excited to talk to the next person, if only because it helps me get to know them more. Plus, it plays into some of the puzzle solving in creative ways. If you were bored by the graphic adventure nature of the first episode, then chances are you won't care much for Starved for Death.
As a middle episode, I didn't expect a whole lot of resolution. And while it's true that the story continues for these survivors, I was happy to see that there was a conclusion to at least one or two threads. The St. John Dairy is an exciting new addition full of new things to look at and people to interact with. My only complaint is that it feels like we're just bouncing from one farm to another, but at least a new storyline sprouts out of the dairy.
Fans of the first episode are in for a real treat with Starved for Death. This is a gripping installment full of smart writing and great voice work. There are a number of new locations to explore, fresh faces to see and even a mystery to solve. So, what's locked inside of that barn anyway? You'll find out when you play through The Walking Dead: Starved for Death.

BATAVIA — The principal of Batavia High School will be the next superintendent in the Batavia School District.
The School Board Tuesday approved hiring Lisa Hichens as the next superintendent, succeeding Superintendent Jack Barshinger, who will retire at the end of the school year.
Hichens has served as the principal of Batavia High School since 2009.
She first joined the district in 1994 as a math teacher at Batavia High School. She also served as assistant principal of teaching and learning from 2005 to 2009.
"Over the years, Dr. Hichens has established herself as an exceptional educator and administrator and has garnered the respect and admiration of colleagues, students, parents and the community," said board member Cathy Dremel.
Hichens will officially begin her role as superintendent on July 1, when Barshinger retires from the leadership post he has held for the past seven years. Transition planning with Barshinger will begin early next week and will continue through June 2013, school officials said.
Hichens' promotion to superintendent will leave a vacancy for the principal's position at Batavia High. The position, along with the director of human resources and assistant director of curriculum and instruction, is expected to be filled by March 2013.
Hichens earned her Ed.D. in leadership in curriculum and instruction from Aurora University, where she also earned her superintendent's endorsement. She received her master's degree in educational leadership and her general administrative certificate from Northern Illinois University and earned her bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois.
Hichens lives in Naperville with her husband Mathew and their children, Emma and Owen.
