Security system false alarms are headaches for Ga. county police
George Chidi; Staff
Somewhere in Gwinnett County right now, someone's burglar alarm is probably annoying the neighbors and tying up the police.
And 99.5 percent of the time, according to police figures, that's all the alarm is doing.
The overwhelming majority of alarm calls to the police turn out to be false, Gwinnett County statistics show. The county spends a small fortune in lost manpower and gasoline on false alarms.
In 2004, only about one alarm in 724 was a real break-in, according to police statistics. In 2005, legitimate alarm calls nearly tripled, even as the total number of alarm calls decreased slightly.
During the first seven months of this year, the rate has decreased to about one legit alarm call for every 189 false alarms. The number of alarm calls has dropped each year since 2003, even as more residents have poured into Gwinnett County.
In 2003, Gwinnett officials revisited the county's false-alarm policy by adjusting false-alarm fees against homeowners and businesses.
There's some evidence that homeowners and businesses have become better at managing their alarm systems since Gwinnett County began cracking down using false-alarm fees. Most false alarms occur because users are unfamiliar with their security system.
But it's still a sore spot for patrol officers, who schlep to about 600 alarm calls to businesses and homes every week, or about 30,000 alarms a year, police statistics show. Each alarm call requires an officer to come to the building and look for trouble, said Cpl. Darren Moloney, Gwinnett's police spokesman.
"It's pretty frustrating to the road officer when you respond to the same house three times in one shift," he said. But when an alarm-monitoring company calls, the police generally must respond, he said.
"The only time we don't respond to an alarm like this is in severe weather," when hail or lightning can set off alarm systems, Moloney said. "Alarm companies will call us with entire neighborhoods going off."
False alarms tie up officers for half an hour or more each time, Moloney said. On average it takes county police about 11 to 12 minutes to get to the alarm, he said. If the building seems to be open, a second officer must be called to help check for intruders, taking up more time. A 2004 estimate on the county's Web site pegged the cost at about $13 a call.
The county recovers some of the cost through the false-alarm fee. Gwinnett County charges $25 for the second false alarm in a year, $50 for the third and $100 for the fourth. The police can revoke the registration of an alarm system after the fourth false alarm in the year, according to county statute. The police department handles the billing.
Compared with some counties in metro Atlanta, the fine is a slap on the wrist. Forsyth County charges up to $1,000 a call after the fourth false alarm in a year, for example. But Gwinnett collected about $429,000 in fees for false alarms in 2005 --- more than twice as much as the year before.
Most of the trouble with false alarms can be traced to users who don't know how to work their security system, said Stuart Huse, chief financial officer of Fortress Technologies, a Norcross-based security services firm.
The problems range from older users who aren't comfortable with technology to children who haven't been taught how to turn off the alarm. Sometimes cleaning crews at office buildings aren't given the access code. And occasionally, people just forget their codes because it's been so long since their alarm went off, he said.
When an alarm sounds, the monitoring company first tries to call the owner. If no one answers the phone --- or whoever does answer can't identify themselves properly --- the alarm company calls the police, Huse said. Many problems with false alarms could be solved simply by keeping phone information up to date, he said.
Even though the overwhelming majority of alarm calls are false, homeowners understandably worry more about that small chance that the problem is real, Huse said. The public expects a quick response from police, even if cops presume the alarm is false.
"I want the county screaming to my house when the alarm goes off," he said.
Gwinnett County spends a small fortune in lost manpower and gasoline on false alarms each year. Here's a look at the total number of alarm calls and the number of false alarms and a look at false-alarm fees collected by the police department.
Year....Total alarm calls....Legitimate alarm calls
2004....34,752 ..............48
2005....31,835 ..............124
*2006 ..17,660 ..............94

Jaguar, can u tell me which move najorf would be? I don't have any openings and I'm trying to find a couple of variations to try out. I have tried the dragon, and while I had success, I don't care for playing cramped games. I prefer openness so I can use my bishops better.
How you defend b2?
i know this. i plays this variation only.
I usually play d5 against the regular alapine but I play the najorf which is d6 if playing against Nf3 classical.
This would confuse me xD
if i do the same move? maybe the black have a chance to attack me? and some of my piece is improper place... theory only.....because im only a begginer
nice if only u know how to continue

West Seattle Bridge's 30th anniversary! Celebration starts rolling at Hotwire Online Coffeehouse during Thursday's WS Art WalkJune 11, 2014 at 9:05 pm | In West Seattle history, West Seattle news | 11 Comments
(Photos courtesy Southwest Seattle Historical Society)
Every West Seattle Art Walk has a multitude of reasons for you to visit local venues and see what – but tomorrow night, there's an extra reason: The start of a summer-long celebration of the West Seattle Bridge's 30th anniversary – a reason to talk about the bridge WITHOUT a discussion of traffic trouble! The photos accompanying this preview – and others – went up tonight at Hotwire Online Coffeehouse (WSB sponsor), which will be showing them off as part of the June Art Walk (and beyond).
Hotwire and other local businesses are collaborating with the Southwest Seattle Historical Society for the multi-site, multi-date celebration. Stop by Hotwire Thursday night not only to see the photo exhibit but also to see the new "Bridging the Gap" T-shirt in honor of the anniversary and meet its artist (more info on the SWSHS website) and to check out the "Bridge Blend" coffee beans that Hotwire is launching. Part of the proceeds from T-shirt and coffee sales will benefit SWSHS.
(Added: As Mike points out in comments, today is the 36th anniversary of the ship-vs.-bridge collision that led to construction of the new bridge!)
Read on for other highlighted events celebrating the anniversary over the next month and a half or so:
– Friday, July 11, through Sunday, July 13, 2014, West Seattle Summer Fest booth, featuring interactive art in which visitors can color themselves atop the West Seattle Bridge. "Bridging the Gap" T-shirts and "Bridge Blend" coffee beans also will be available at the booth.
– Monday evening, July 14, 2014, "Bridging the Gap: The Full Story Told by Those Who Were There," a free panel presentation in the Hotwire courtyard, including Charles Royer, former Seattle mayor and other city officials responsible for funding and building the bridge.
– Saturday evening, Aug. 2, 2014, "Sleepless in Seattle," the 1993 PG-rated movie partially filmed in West Seattle, dusk in the Hotwire courtyard, part of West Seattle Outdoor Movies. Proceeds from refreshment sales will go to the Southwest Seattle Historical Society.
Meantime, see tomorrow night's venue list and walking map for the entire Art Walk by going to wsartwalk.com.

So hard to believe it's been 30 years! Those pics bring back memories…
It was 36 years ago today/tonight, that the "Ship Hit the Span", which finally got the ball rolling on a high bridge that West Seattle had long fought to get.
Comment by miws — 9:58 pm June 11, 2014 #
Mike, thank you, I can't believe I didn't look that up while putting this together. … Will add to the narrative.
The ship that hit the span was captained by Capt. Rolf Neslund who was eventually shot to death by his wife Ruth. Her conviction is one of the few obtained in the U.S. without a victims body.

That is one stuck up bridge.
Comment by Jordan — 7:36 am June 12, 2014 #
36 years since my driver's ed final. We thought the bridge was going to be fixed in a week or two! Each of the old bridges had four lanes. It was quite the squeeze with the reduction to two in each direction?. And wasn't one lane reversible depending on the time of day? We ended up skipping the freeway portion of the driver's ed final!
Comment by gina — 7:44 am June 12, 2014 #
You're welcome, WSB, and thanks for the History Link link, and thanks to MSWS, for your link as well.
The linked Articles provide a correction to my comment; that the incident happened in the early hours of June 11, 1978. My comment implies that it happened late night June 11/early morning June 12.
I thought about that just after I posted, and thought about looking it up in either History Link, or in my copy of West Side Story that is right in front of me on my coffee table, but my next step was to log off the internet and go to bed. I was afraid if I visited either source, I'd end up staying up another half hour reminiscing, and I was really tired.
Just the night before, as I was just about to log off, I got lost in Internetland for another half hour, after making "just one more quick visit" to Facebook. ;-)
Comment by miws — 7:44 am June 12, 2014 #
Did it go without notice that the high bridge got significant funding from the feds? Ah, those heady days of matching funds and infrastructure investment as a national priority…
Wonder if the investment paid off? Wonder how many folks who have never driven an inch of the bridge helped pay for it?
Shared sacrifice for the good of the many. Crazy stuff, that.
Comment by wakeflood — 11:36 am June 12, 2014 #
"The feds" still fund things. RapidRide. Also, the two new Water Taxi vessels. Sorry I don't have numbers handy but it's been reported here before.
Never too soon to think about it, but when is the estimated date that this bridge will need to be replaced? 30 more years? What will the cost be?

The other day, a reader emailed me some questions regarding the functional
differences between Microsoft Visual
SourceSafe and SourceGear Vault. I'd rather
talk about the awesome sailing I enjoyed this weekend on a friend's boat in the
lovely San Juan Islands but the
corporate Sirens are singing and I am now back on the clock.
Vault is a new source
control application from SourceGear, the company that produces SourceOffsite, the most popular remote
access solution for Visual SourceSafe databases.
you know of some major differences between vault and sourceSafe that would lean
me towards using VSS?
Answer: I have not had an opportunity to evaluate
Vault personally. However, I have seen it discussed in the following
newsgroups and listservs: microsoft.public.vstudio.sourcesafe,
microsoft.public.vsnet.vss, and aspalliance.com's firstname.lastname@example.com.
I work remotely and
access to source safe code depositories via VSS are excrutiatingly slow. I
tried SourceOffSite and the access time was much better. Will the VSS
improve responsiveness when accessing files remotely?
Answer: You can probably improve your performance somewhat by
tweaking a few VSS settings. For details, see http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/Q123/4/73.asp (don't
skip the last paragraph...from what I understand, shadowing can
be especially expensive.) Second, SourceOffsite is often recommended as a
good third party solution for this situation. Finally, I often work remotely and
have observed that the fastest method by far is to connect to my
VSS client workstation on the corporate LAN via Remote Desktop
Connection (Start->Run->MSTSC) in Windows over a VPN. When connecting
via MSTSC, all of the heavy SourceSafe network traffic occurs on
the high speed LAN with only the screens being passed to me over my
[relatively] slow home connection.
What is the
history of VSS? Was it developed at MS or did MS buy the product from
another vendor?Answer: SourceSafe
was acquired by Microsoft in 1994 from OneTree Software. Ted Roche discusses the
history of SourceSafe in his book, "Essential

In this July 28, 2013 file photo, Pope Francis waves from his popemobile along the Copacabana beachfront on his way to celebrate the World Youth Day's closing Mass in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Sunday, July 28, 2013. Brazilian researchers say the Roman Catholic Church's 3.7 million estimate of the crowd that turned out to see Francis celebrate Mass on Copacabana beach is inflated, if still impressive. One of Brazil's top polling and research firms estimates the crowd at the Mass was at most 1.5 million people. (AP Photo/Victor R. Caivano, File)
In a July 31 article, Dubuque Archbishop Michael Jackels gave his spin on Pope Francis' non-judgmental comments on gay priests, asserting they are consistent with past doctrine. But in November 2005, the Vatican explicitly barred men with homosexual tendencies from the priesthood.
Unfortunately, the idea that the Catholic Church cannot change was reinforced by the pope when he asserted that the notion that women could be ordained was "closed."
Of course, as with any other human institution, the Catholic Church has changed throughout the years. Why women's ordination should be off the table puzzled the late bishop of Des Moines, Maurice Dingman.

Jones discusses green jobs as the solution to the environmental and economic crises, explained his position as the special advisor for green jobs at the White House, the funding set aside for green jobs training and much more.
The interview was conducted during the Vermont Business and Industry Expo, which was held last month in Burlington.

February 1st is the fiftieth anniversary of the Greensboro sit-ins. As a local television station describes it:
On Feb. 1, 1960, four black students at N.C. A&T sat down at the segregated lunch counter at the F.W. Woolworth store in downtown Greensboro and demanded service. The protest continued until July, when the counter was desegregated.
This pivotal moment in civil rights history is receiving the attention it deserves.
Here are my choices for The Best Sites To Learn About The Greensboro Sit-Ins:
The National Museum of American History has many resources, including videos and lesson plans, on the sit-ins.
The Woolworth Sit-In That Launched a Movement is from National Public Radio, and provides audio support for the text.
February One: The Story of the Greensboro Four is the website for a PBS film and has many resources.
The International Civil Rights Center and Museum doesn't have a whole of resources, but it's worth visiting for it's impressive opening presentation and for the fact that it's opening its doors next week — on the site of the Woolworth store where the sit-ins took place.
Greensboro Sit-Ins: Launch Of A Civil Rights Movement is a website set-up by the Greensboro local newspaper, and has a wealth of multimedia resources.
New Museum to Honor Power of a Sit-In Protest is the title of a new Voice of America Special English report that provides audio for the text.
The Legacy of The Greensboro Four is a video from CBS News.
A Participant Looks Back is a CNN video.
The New York Times has a slideshow titled Center Of Change and an accompanying article.
Protesters Reflect On Success Of 1960s Sit-ins is an article from CBS News.
A Brief History of the Sit In Movement is a slideshow from TIME Magazine.
Greensboro Sit-In is another site with multimedia resources.

DANBURY, Conn., Aug 13, 2007 (PrimeNewswire via COMTEX News Network) --
FuelCell Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq:FCEL), a leading manufacturer of ultra-clean power plants using a variety of fuels for commercial, industrial and utility customers, today announced the sale of a 300 kilowatt (kW) fuel cell stack module and associated balance of plant components to POSCON, one of the subsidiary companies of POSCO (NYSE:PKX), and FuelCell Energy's strategic partner for the South Korean market. These components enable POSCON, a systems engineering and electronics manufacturing company, to build its first power plant to prepare for its own balance of plant (BOP) manufacturing in Asia. These components are equivalent to a complete DFC300MA(r) system and are expected to ship this fall.
Under its licensing and distribution agreement with POSCO, FuelCell Energy currently ships complete fuel cell power plants to POSCO. When its own manufacturing facility is ready, POSCO will integrate FuelCell Energy's fuel cell module with POSCO's BOP, installing and servicing the units at customer sites.
POSCO's manufacturing plant is expected to have 50 MW of capacity by the end of 2008 and 100 MW by 2010.
"This arrangement allows us to capitalize on POSCO's manufacturing capabilities and their economies of scale as we work to meet the increasing demand customers in South Korea have for highly efficient, ultra-clean power generation," said Ben Toby, Vice President of Global Business Development for FuelCell Energy. "Over time, as POSCO gains experience with our DFC systems, we expect them to emerge as a superior BOP supplier, integrator and service provider -- not just for power plants there, but potentially for other parts of the world, too."
Having ratified the Kyoto Protocols, South Korea is becoming one of the world's leading adopters of clean energy technology, and a burgeoning market for fuel cell power plants. The country's Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy (MOCIE) last year introduced a renewable energy subsidy program that provides substantial incentives for fuel cells -- powered by biogas and natural gas -- exceeding the funding created for wind power, biomass and hydro, and second only to solar power.
This order brings FuelCell Energy's fiscal year total to 7.8 MW from POSCO.
About POSCO
POSCO (http://www.posco.co.kr), founded in 1968, is Korea's largest integrated steelmaker. Headquartered in the southeastern port city of Pohang, South Korea, POSCO produced 30 million tons of crude steel products, and reported record sales of US$21.56 billion and net income of US$3.45 billion in 2006. As one of the world's leading steel producers, POSCO manufactures and sells a line of steel products, including hot rolled and cold rolled products, plates, wire rods, flat rolled magnetic steel sheets and strips, electrical steel sheets and stainless steel products. POSCO is also rated A3/Moody's and A-/S&P, the highest credit ratings assigned to the world's integrated steelmakers.

Ok, here is my correspondence with emusic.com:
My first question: I was referred to emusic by an email from a friend, but I am unable to sign up because you are unable to authorize my credit card. This card is American Express and works for everything else including concert tickets I bought on line last night.
Can you help?
The answer: Thank you for contacting eMusic Customer Support. We wanted to provide you with an immediate reply to your issue. If this response does not fully address your concerns, please reply to this email and we will assist you promptly.
Tell A Friend credits are issued 30 days after the referred friend becomes a paying subscriber. Full terms of the offer are available at http://www.emusic.com/taf/rules.htm
If the Tell A Friend credits do not appear after the referred friend has completed his/her first paid period after the free trial, please let us know. We will need both the referred friend's e-mail address as well as the e-mail address of the person who made the referral. If you are the referred friend, please ask the person who referred you to provide us with this information.
We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused. Thank you for taking the time to refer a friend to eMusic.
I didn't think that answered my question, so I pressed on: I would like to subscribe to emusic.com, but for some reason you don't like my credit card. I was able to buy $40.00 worth of gas with it yesterday. Please help or I will have to cancel my subscription before it even starts.
The reply: Thank you for contacting eMusic Customer Support.
We are having trouble processing your credit card. Please contact your bank to determine the reason for this issue. Once you resolve your issue, you should be able to proceed accordingly.
If you would like to update your credit card information or provide a new card:
1. Login to eMusic - you will be presented with the update credit card screen
2. Update your credit card information and submit.
This will store your new credit card information. As soon as we are able to successfully charge your card
your account will become available for use.
Abbey - eMusic Support
Then I noticed my account was active, so I downloaded my 50 free tracks, but couldn't upgrade because of the credit card issue I thought was solved: When I signed up, your system wouldn't take my credit card. Now it apparently has. I've downloaded my 50 free downloads, but when I try to activate the account to start my subscription, the system doesn't like my credit card again! What is up? Can you help? I'm trying to spend my money here, and it's frustrating to get nowhere.
The Reply:
Your account is active and these are the terms.
The offer you accepted was for the eMusic Basic plan that includes 30 downloads for $9.99 per month as well as 50 extra downloads FREE for your first month: Per the information presented before you accepted:
Clicking the continue button indicates that you have read, understand and agree to our terms and conditions.
If you are enjoying your eMusic membership simply do nothing and your trial subscription will roll over into the subscription plan you chose above.
This confirmation was presented:
Your eMusic Plan
eMusic Basic 30 downloads for $9.99 per month Plus 50 FREE for your first month
Again, I am sorry for any confusion you experienced. I hope this helps you understand the charge you received.
My reply (by the way, I had never received a charge):
Hi Amber,
I appreciate your help, but now I'm really confused!! I logged in tonight and get the same message about my credit card not being accepted, I have 0 downlaods available, and cannot upgrade to the $9.99 account, let alone to the $14.99 or $19.99 levels. I have not received any charge yet on my credit card. Do I have to wait 30 days before I get 30 downloads?
Musically yours (almost),
Amber replies: Our subscription records indicate that your eMusic account associated with the email address
was not charged during the free trial period. When you registered with eMusic, we authorized your credit card with a small temporary charge. Many financial institutions display this temporary charge online for several days even though it is subsequently removed. Please be assured that you will not be charged for this account authorization. (then she listed all my 50 downloads)
Seems like we are making progress here, so I write: Thank you again Amber,
I have gotten the 50 free downloads as listed below, but I am ready to start my account in earnest, but I am still receiving the following message:
"We were unable to authorize your credit card. Please ensure that the information below is correct, or enter a new credit card."
Since you have authorized my card for the free trial, I'm hoping it can be authorized for the full-on membership. Do I have to wait the entire 30 period before I can do that?
Wait, it's not over yet:
Thank you for contacting eMusic Customer Support.
Our records indicate that your credit card was declined because the zip code you entered did not match
the zip code that is on file with your credit card company.
The zip code for your eMusic account under the email "<!--ustomerEmai--> " is: ZIP CODE
Please verify that this zip code matches the zip code associated with your credit card.
To update the zip code associated with your eMusic account you must input the correct zip code during the registration process. To do so, go to https://www.emusic.com/registration
/2.html, enter credit card information, choose a plan and click submit. If the zip code you provided previously does not match the one on file with your credit card company, an error message will be displayed and you will be prompted to enter a new zip code.

Ok, I'm getting a little irritated at this point:
Sorry, but the issue is yours, not mine, unless I'm not filling out the form properly somehow. I buy gas with that card, used it a K-Mart two days ago, and it's the card I use most often - without any issues. Somehow, after getting the same message when I originally signed up, one day I discovered I had 50 free downloads. I was never given any indication my card was okay at that point, but I assumed it must have been since you required the card for the free trial. I'd really like to subscribe, but if you won't accept my credit card, I guess I can't. I you can't resolve this issue, I will cancel.
Thank you,
And so are they!!
When attempting to process your credit card we are receiving a decline message, which would be coming from your bank.
As I have stated before, you would have to contact your bank and inquiry why our attempt for payment is being declinedRegards,

So now I'll try a little humor: Well Amb, is it all right if I call you Amb? I feel like we've bonded so we can be on a first syllable basis. I appreciate your help, but I give up. The zip code was correct, but I re-entered it anyway, and still got the same message. I tried clicking on the link below, but cannot sign in there because I already have an account. I really can't understand how I was authorized in the first place, since I've never changed my information and I was inititially rejected, then rejected again after my 50 free downloads. Now I'm dejected that I've been rejected and ejected.
Have a nice day!
So much for humor!!:
Thank you for contacting eMusic Customer Support.

I like the part where she says my "trail" has been cancelled. Good stuff.

Brian Fargo is no stranger to the world of video game development, having originally founded Interplay back in 1984. He's worked on titles like the original Bard's Tale and Wasteland, and Interplay developed everything from Battle Chess to Fallout to Baldur's Gate. When Interplay was acquired by Titus in 2002, Fargo left and founded InXile Entertainment, which later released an updated Bard's Tale for PS2, Xbox, and PC. Now both Fargo and InXile are moving onto next-generation consoles with the swords and scorcery co-op title Hunted: The Demon's Forge.
We recently spoke to Fargo about the game, which you can find just after the break. But be warned! Just prepare yourself for the sheer about of verbiage manages to foist upon us when we asked what the initial genesis for the game was. It's quite an answer! Read on to see what he has to say about the upcoming title, including why they limited to two characters, the depth of the puzzles in the game, and boob jiggle. Yes, boob jiggle.%Gallery-92197%

You talked a little bit about the genesis of loving games like The Bard's Tale and Wizardry, which are iconic. How did you go from those to Hunted?
Here's kind of how it started really. I am at home. I'm watching TV. I'm watching movies. I'm watching the Abyss. Whatever I'm watching, and I didn't feel like anybody had done what it felt like to be in a dungeon with today's graphic standards. Let's just start with that. What would that be like, right? And it's funny seeing that onscreen now. That's what I wanted. When you go back and play with Bard's Tale, you are wandering around in the dungeons and you've got the feeling, down there, and going down below, and being lost, and finding secret doors, visually it was never what things look like now.
And so I just wanted it to where you actually felt like you are in a dungeon. That was how it started. So we started to focus on that. Then it became, "OK, well look, we are not going to roll up your characters and have a party at six." Yes. I love that kind of stuff, too, but that's not ... the modern gamer, they don't even know those things. Well, the other part, let me backup for a second. We also wanted to do a game where we weren't fighting the technology at all. I said let's do a product that the technology does exactly what it's supposed to do. And we already intimately familiar with Unreal. With that said, we looked at other technologies, but if you want to go with this kind of perspective, it does this in spades. If you want to make a flight simulator, or an open based, open world driving game, that would be an issue. But for this kind of thing it was perfect. So that was number two.
Mark Rain came down. We were kicking it around, and I was telling him what we were going to do. And he said, nobody is really doing anything with Gears of War. Nobody is doing derivatives of Gears of War, or anything else. But we were searching for what would be the combat system. So it just made sense for us at that point to take that metaphor for today's gamer and mix it but get those elements. And if you've never heard of those games before and never played them before, we still think it's cool. We still think they'll enjoy it. And the way I structured it, I was telling him, is that I think in many ways games have been dumbed down over the years. And I think it's wrong. Even when I used to do those games early on, Bard's Tale, Wasteland, there actually was a younger audience back then. People think our audience is young, but it's not true. But it really was back then. And we always aimed very high, and they always figured it out. We always gave their intelligence the benefit of the doubt. But because of the narrow structure of design, you can't let people get stuck where it's a sin.
But because we put all of this stuff off of critical path, I now have the latitude to get as deep, and as intellectual, interesting, with puzzles and riddles, as I want. Because, you don't have to do it. Nobody can complain. And so, that's why. But I think that said, most of the people are going to go do it anyway. And they are going to have fun, and they are going to solve it, and they are going to compare notes. And how did you find this? Or how did you get that? Or do all sorts of cool clever stuff.
So I guess I answered your question in a roundabout way on where it came from ... right?
How do the puzzles work in single player? Will you trigger the necessary dialogue automatically?
You'll have a journal. You build that up. The one thing that wasn't well explained there is how single player works with the puzzles. As Caddoc you have to look at the braziers in the proper order and that will trigger E'lara to do it. You see, so that way you really did have to figure it out for yourself. We just didn't make you go through the rote action of switching characters and then making her do it, you know what I mean? The puzzle itself isn't in how difficult it is to shoot it. It isn't like a moving target. It's not like that. And if there is, we are not going to play it off that way. Like, what's the point of a puzzle, right? If you're not solving it yourself?
This is Hunted with a subtitle, The Demon's Forge. Does that mean that there could be no more stories in the Hunted space? Are you guys looking at this with an eye towards a franchise?
Yeah. That's a little marketing there on that one. We don't decide all those things. But no, my idea is this. I'm doing this for 10 years, just on this one right here. We want to take this out. To me, I already know exactly what the sequel needs to be on this. So yes, we really want to fill it out. I think there is going to be a lot of really, really, positive reaction to this off-path stuff. It's going to allow people to go, "Guess what? We can go a little deeper in the game guys." People will spend the time to do it. They don't have to just run and gun every two seconds. They are willing to do these things.
Do you have to go off-path to find better weapons? Are can you cruise through the whole game with what you start with?
No, no, you'll find better weapons along the path. That don't require all that stuff. It might be very minor going down the hall, or it will be more battle-oriented. In defeating some creature, it will drop, stuff like that.
Are the puzzles a big component of the game?
For sure. Yeah it is. We like that stuff. We do. So yeah it will be a big component of it. There is going to be some that are very, very, hard that you won't figure out. You'll be scratching your head. You may see the item that you are trying to get to and you may sit there for a half an hour and say, "I give." and move on. And that's okay. Deal with it. [laughs] You can't solve them all. Or maybe you will, who knows. You can pass some up if you want. That's the biggest game design change in the last 10 years. If you go back in the very beginning, back to the Bard's Tale, Wizardry days, you would play the game. You couldn't even save your game until you got out of the dungeon. That was the most punishing of all. And then it was like, "Okay, we'll let you save your game anywhere." The purist hated that because, you just saved you game, and kick open the door. If you don't like the results, you load again. Well, too bad. And then it was the puzzles that you get stuck on. Now of course we are doing it this way.
How are the players dropped into this game? Is there a cutscene that presents the a set up?
Oh, yeah. You haven't seen any of the movies yet. None of that. This is all in-game stuff that we've been showing you. All the cinematic cut scenes, you haven't seen any of those. You asked earlier in the demo why we didn't have more characters. Well, we wanted to develop really strong characters. Like, you know, the banter's fun. She's different. She's the more, no worries, move, run forward. He's the more conservative one. There's some humor. They talk about moments in the past. This is why we focus on those two in telling a story. It's a little difficult when you go, "Oh, I'm going to choose from six different classes" or this and that. You lose that ability to do that. That's what I was asking about the different characters. Not so much we are missing the ability for it to roll in their own.
Was it pretty early on in the story process where you guys were like, "These are our two characters"? I really feel like you're missing a magic user in here.
Yeah. Early on we had a third that we were actually going to do. Then for focus reasons we thought we'd hone it down to two. But within the future, there are some things that we can do. And maybe it's only two out of three that you're playing. Whatever. We'll look at that stuff. But we are taking on a lot as is and you're better served doing the things you're doing really, really well than trying to do a little too much because then you start to fall down.
When a character is finished with the game, what's the end game? Can they go back through the game again with their new items?
Well, that, or you can also go back through as the other character now. Most if not all co-op games, they are really the same person. There is no difference. With this there is truly a difference. Then there will be some other things later which we will later discuss that make the replay significant.
There's a big co-op element to this, but what about pure multi-player, are there any challenge rooms anything in the works?
We're not telling you guys the good stuff yet. We're keeping that hidden.
So what's the scope generally, lengthwise? What are you guys thinking?
I thinking if you're going to play, just straight up, forget wandering around solving puzzles, we'll be consistent with the other games in the category. If you want to do all this other stuff we're talking about, now you're up to 20, 30, now it starts to ramp up.
It sounds like there's a lot of side quests you can do. That is almost going to double your game length?
I would expect, yes. I think that's a fair statement.
How challenging was that? Was the core game scripted, and then you added the side quests and puzzles?
Let's see. We waited until we could feel the mechanics more and then we started to do more of that stuff; what's fun and what's not fun to do. Lighting is actually, her lighting, her bow and her arrow, that was originally for firepower reasons. But then as we did it in a dark cave, guess what, it was kinda cool, and then lighting the braziers became much more significant. That would be an example of something where we took it and ran with it, even from a puzzle telling perspective. So ropes, like radius effects, that sort of stuff. We've looked at the mechanics and now we're taking them out.
What happens if you're playing co-op and you are completely far away from the other character
There will be indicators to get you right back. We're not taking it like it's an old dungeon where you actually get lost and gotta get graph paper out or need some overlay mapping system. We're not going there. There's definitely exploration. You'll find a secret door here that I never knew was here before, or your buddies will tell you, I never looked there. It will be that kind of stuff. But you won't get lost so much. I don't see that happening. We'll have things that will tell you which way to go; will automatically tell you to go back to your ally.
In the demo, E'lara tossed a vial to Caddoc and it seemed to heal him immediately. Do those work on contact?
On contact, because you could be unconscious.
Oh, he was down, right.
He was down. The only way the game ends is if you both go down.
Just like Gears.
Yeah, Gears and Halo.
You were mentioning the Unreal engine, and in Gears, you know, you guys were talking about the comparisons to that. Well, they have the Torque-bow, and a melee weapon or two. Was it easy to develop the weapons using this engine and going into this medieval space?
The ranged weapons was easy. It was the melee that was more difficult. They don't do much on melee, right? And our melee feels good. It feels satisfying. You're breaking shields and you're having your shield broken. That was more difficult.
The shields, we heard about that mechanic where you're going to have to pick up a new one occasionally. Then there's obviously weapons. Are there other items, wear-ables, armor or anything that the characters encounter?
Yeah, you'll be finding some bracers, not the full inventory but you'll be finding some stuff like that. It changes the look of your character and it's protection.
And as this plays out, do we get to learn more about these characters and their background, why they're together?
Yeah, absolutely. I mean that's what is fun. I don't know if you caught the dialogue there where he talked about, "Well, remember the last time you touched something..." So it has a very Indiana Jones feel where there will be a lot of references to other things that happen in that world. It fills them out as characters. We did The Bard's Tale, and one of good things that came out of it was the way the narrator and Bard, they way they interacted is that we're really focused on getting inside the head of what the player is thinking in the situation, and the banter gives us our ability to respond to that. And what that means is that we understand what your head is thinking, player. Because, you know, some games I play, and I'm thinking, "Did they play this game one time themselves?" Well, if there is banter that is reacting to things that you are thinking, then you know the designers played the game. And so we're very focused on that. And when that banter reinforces what's happening, it really shines.
E'lara seems to be fairly well-endowed. After noticing a couple of times in the demo, I have to ask: did you guys put some boob physics in there?
You know, Max would have been the guy to ask for that. He may have, and I am not going to say he did or he didn't, but I'm not sure. I don't know, that's a good question.
She's certainly wearing the outfit for it.
I will say physics are physics. Whatever happens, happens. So whether he tripped the screen and made it happen...[laughs] who knows.
Good talking to you. Thanks a lot.
Thank you very much.

|Fish oil, but not soy bean or olive oil enriched infusion decreases histopathological severity of acute pancreatitis in rats without affecting eicosanoid synthesis.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20963474 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|Different dietary fatty acids affect eicosanoid metabolism in different ways, thus influencing the pro- and anti-inflammatory balance of prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Therefore, we analyzed the impact of [n-3], [n-6], and [n-9] fatty acids on eicosanoid metabolism and histopathology in acute pancreatitis in rats. Seventy-five male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into five groups (n = 15). Group 1 underwent only laparotomy, while in groups, 2-5 pancreatitis was induced. Groups 1 and 2 were then given saline infusion, groups 3-5 received fat emulsion (group 3: rich in [n-6], group 4: rich in [n-9], group 5: rich in [n-3] fatty acids) for another 18 h. Infusion rich in [n-3] fatty acids significantly decreased histopathological severity of pancreatitis, compared to all other groups. There was no difference concerning the concentrations of prostaglandins and leukotrienes between all groups. Parenteral infusion rich in [n-3] fatty acids reduced histopathological severity of acute pancreatitis in rats without changing eicosanoid metabolism at the endpoint.

Dropping river levels could impact food prices
Related Story
BATON ROUGE - The cost to do business for farmers could trickle down to the consumer as early as the end of this year.
Drought conditions in the Midwest and transportations issues on the Mississippi River are making it difficult to grow and ship product.
The Mississippi River in Baton Rouge is at its lowest level in years sitting at 3.6 feet, at the point along the west bank where officials measure. That's down from around 17 feet this time last year and 21 in 2010.
The channel in the middle of the river is deep enough for ships and barges to pass, but dredgers continue to fight silt buildup.
Between Baton Rouge and the Midwest, barge traffic has slowed since river pilots have to navigate a much more shallow channel. Farmers aren't able to completely fill barges because of the river's depth and the draft displaced by the usual weight.
Associated Grocers President and CEO Jay Campbell said since the drought has killed vast majorities of crops, consumers can expect to see inflated food costs at the grocery store.
"If you were to speculate, you could possibly see grocery prices up five percent, which is considerable. You know if you're spending 100 dollars, if may be 105 dollars, and maybe it's higher on some items or maybe it's lower on others," Campbell said.
The US Army Corps of Engineers continues to dredge the channel to make sure ship and barge traffic can continue.

The Panthers' highly successful season, which included a York-Adams Division I title, came to an end with a 41-24 loss to Exeter Township in the opening round of the District 3 Class AAAA playoffs.
The Berks County team, which entered the playoffs as the No. 12-seed stunned the No. five-seeded Panthers by scoring 24 unanswered points after falling behind, 17-14.
"We challenged them (the players) tonight," Exeter Township head coach Matt Bauer said. "The last two years, we were just happy to be here. We wanted to make a statement, and I think we did that tonight."
The Eagles seized the momentum by capitalizing on two big plays - one at the end of the second quarter and the other at the beginning of the third quarter.
Exeter drove 84 yards in just 34.3 seconds to take the lead for good with a touchdown just before halftime. Chase Yocum's 24-yard TD strike to Evan Lysczek came with only 1.2 seconds on the clock.
"I think it (the go-ahead touchdown pass) was huge," Central head coach Brad Livingston said. "For them to go the distance, that had to be a big boost for them, and it didn't help us at all."
Exeter Township then kicked off to start the third quarter, but Central failed to cover the short kick, and Exeter's Drew Bennett recovered.
The Eagles didn't score following Bennett's recovery, but they enjoyed field position the whole third quarter. Central did not cross midfield until midway through the fourth quarter.
"Nobody fielded it (the kickoff), and I don't know why," Livingston said. "We made a big error there and it put us in a bind the whole third quarter It seemed like we were playing on our end of the field the whole third quarter."
Central, which was unable to get its running game going (64 rushing yards for the night) finally broke through for a second-half touchdown when quarterback Dylan Hose hooked up with wide receiver Zane Knaub on a 34-yard TD strike with 3:42 left in the game.
Hose, playing his last game for the Panthers, completed 16 of 32 passes for 204 yards and three touchdowns. Knaub caught two of the TD passes (55 and 34 yards) and Robert Romey grabbed the other touchdown toss (six yards). Knaub, a senior, snared five passes for 122 yards.
"We had a tough time moving the ball all night," Hose said. "They did a good job of stopping the run. We were able to pass on them a little bit, but we just couldn't get it done.
The defeat in districts stung, but Hose will look back fondly on the 2013 season.
"We went undefeated in the division, we were YAIAA Division I champions. Great memories, great guys. I'll love these guys for the rest of their lives."
The veteran Livingston, who earned his 200th career victory this season, is proud of what his team accomplished during its 8-3 season.
"For this team to do what it did this year, they went on a seven-game winning streak. They lost three games, but if I heard right, all three of those teams (Exeter, Cumberland Valley and Hempfield) are still playing next week. So, we had one heck of a season."

Make-Up Application €40
A make-up session at Core Beauty is a pampering treatment. Prior to applying make-up, we cleanse, condition and moisturise the skin with Dermalogica products to suit your skin type. We blend foundations to match your skin tone and colour and our professional make-up artists can create many different looks.
Semi-Permanent Make-Up
Lip Liner: The semi-permanent lip liner is beautiful. It can appear to change the size and shape of the lips. This procedure helps prevent lipstick from bleeding into the surrounding skin. A soft pink is popular for those wanting a natural look but a more dramatic colour can be acheived if desired.
Eyebrows: The semi-permanent procedure for eyebrows can mimic the appearence of hair in the brow line. Anyone who desires more fullness of the brows will love this procedure and the time saved by not applying make-up. Those who used to apply pencil can go swimming, play tennis or wipe their forehead without the embarrassment of losing their eyebrows. Alopecia sufferers are pleasantly surprised at how nalural it looks.
EyeLiner: The semi-permanent procedure for eyeliner is popular with both male and female clients. Additional shadowing of colour can be added for a soft natural liner or a bold, defined line may be acheived.
