Yeah, I've been aware of what Media.Vision has been up to (except that Digimon game, thanks for sharing!) but the actual team that used to work on the Wild ARMs series has been dissolved for years beginning with the director leaving. It's such a shame that a lot of JRPG series that were favorites back in the day just kind of fizzled out at the end of the PS2 era give or take a little. There is still so much love for a lot of them like WA, Suikoden and Star Ocean. At least Tales is still going strong! Haha.
I actually think there have been some semi-recent releases of the Wild ARMs manga, Flower Thieves but don't quote me on that. I think that's it, though. There was also this just a few days ago:
I still own the entire series of games, though, so I'm good until my PS2 stops working some day.

All of which I'm very well aware, too bad essentially all of that list has nothing to do with localized games (of course, I'm sure that new Digimon game won't be coming here either). I still a want new Wild Arms regardless, but I guess Sony decided a long time ago that their own signature RPG series isn't worth pursuing anymore. A shame really. I guarantee I'll be more surprised than anyone else on the planet if I hear about a Wild Arms 6 announcement.
Seeing you mention the favorites reminds me that there was a segment in GameInformer called "Lost RPG Franchises: Where Are They Now?" that covered the progress of the greats while pointing out their current and possible odds at another entry. Mana, Suikoden, Shining, Shadow Hearts, Wild Arms, .hack, Grandia and Breath of Fire were all covered...and when I look at them all, I want to shed a tear for the ones that are pretty much dead (Shadow Hearts, Grandia) or being reduced to mobile gaming (Mana, Breath of Fire).
Same here; from the original all the way to XF, including the Wild Arms 5 10th Anniversary Edition box. To the ends of Filgaia...

My motto is better to see a series end before it becomes some mediocre, soul less husk. Usually what happens once original developers start leaving the company but the company still decides to put out more games in a franchise. Tales is the only franchise I can still say I enjoy all the titles in.
I'd check out Resonance of Fate if you liked classic Star Ocean, it's also by Tri-Ace. I mean, it's nothing like Star Ocean outside an action-y combat system, but it's by the same company and a great RPG nevertheless I liked it more than Last Hope which didn't feel like much of a Star Ocean game to me and part of why I'm not too sad there's no more Star Ocean games. Better to end it on that than continue it along and be Star Ocean in name only.

I've said it before, but I'd be okay with Wild Arms 6 being the series' swan song. I just want one last taste of Filgaia before it's time to put the series out to pasture, if you'll pardon the theme-appropriate pun.
I'm familiar with Resonance of Fate (or End of Eternity to the purists), and I've been heavily interested in it since I saw a run of it on YouTube as well as the Basel trio appearing in Project X Zone. I just don't have the time or finances for buying new games at this point, not to mention the gigantic backlog of unfinished games I still need to get to. Last Hope may have been a joke in a lot of categories, but it was still fun during battles.

The problem is Wild Arms hadn't even started to go bad. It was actually getting good with XF and 5 being fantastic takes on the new battle system from 4.
Most of the series were fine actually.
Cyber Connect still seems to have it when it comes to making games so a new actual .hack rpg would be ace. Probably would have actual co-op these days. Would be nice to see what they could do with modern online functionality.
Grandia 3 still had the best combat in the series and pretty great production values. No series provides the same combat. No reason for it to have died creatively.
Shadow Hearts 3 was fine and a lot of the same people went unto Lost Odyssey and now seemingly are doing nothing. I think there was some PSP game by one of the creative dudes behind Shadow Hearts, but thats it.
Suikoden V was great, but the creative head left during 3. Rumor was that Konami was just waiting for his return. Maybe this series should just be left alone.
Mana and Breath of Fire though are series that can easily come back, but are stuck to mobile games.
It would be fine if a lot of these companies were making other things in place of these series, but they aren't. Japanese gaming just kind of sucks.

Aww shucks. I forgot about the contest.
I would've written about DJ Max Fever. That game convinced me to import the rest of the series and is the reason I will keep my PSP until the day it breaks and I am no longer able to repair it (I've already had to replace an analog stick and the screen). This is because of those game's asinine non-transferable save files. But the games are good enough for me to put up with that one flaw.

Wild Arms: I agree. I have had essentially no complaints with any of the games in the WA series. Other than 2 and AC:F's awkward translation work, they're all fantastic games and XF was a really neat attempt to explore a different kind of RPG with the series.
.hack: .hack's future here just seems weak since we haven't had received anything beyond that recent new movie (at least nothing else comes to mind). That fighting game entry would have been nice, but a lot of folks said it's an insult to the series to suddenly resort to the fighter genre to turn a profit. I wouldn't know though. They're not my opinions.
Grandia: Most hardcores feel Grandia went to crap with Xtreme and III though (since Takeshi Miyaji left after Grandia II and believed that it was his great directing that made the first two games the jewels in the series). Both had great battle systems obviously, but III had a story that was marginally better in the beginning before it slowly degraded into a really generic conclusion with one of the worst final bosses ever conceived. Xtreme's loss of great character development, less than average plot development and lack of travel didn't do it any favors either. However, that nonsensical online iteration was what really nailed the coffin shut since the servers were shut down last year in November due to lack of interest (I knew that was going to happen).
Shadow Hearts: The game you're referring to is Arms Heart, which unfortunately was received with a lot of negativity for its high encounter rate and slow battles (not exactly a great combination when people prefer speeding through battles of repetitive animations). So I'm not surprised it wasn't localized, despite some folks want to still try it. Unfortunately my 360 isn't doing much anymore and I own nearly JRPG for the console except Lost Odyssey. I had heard some glowing remarks about it. If I ever hook it up again, I might consider it.
Suikoden: I guess it doesn't really matter anyway since Suikoden hasn't been keeping up here and Thousand Year Tapestry sold below expected numbers (guess that's what they get for trying to slap time travel in there). You probably heard a couple years back how the development team was disbanded, which has likely contributed to the series's slow stagnation and absence of localization.
Mana & BoF: I don't know Rah, I just have a sick feeling that both series are approaching a slow death considering that
a) Mana really went downhill starting with Dawn of Mana's awkward roguelike mechanics; the portable games made it worse, especially Brownie Brown's terrible attempt at an RTS game in Heroes of Mana.
b) BoF hasn't been around since the "great fan divide" caused by Dragon Quarter back in 2003 and now it suddenly returns a decade later with a cellphone game that has nothing to do with the series proper in anything other than name.
I guess they just want to rely on brand name to sell stuff, if anything.

I am perfectly fine with series ending. As much as I loved Grandia, Breath of Fire, Suikoden, and Wild Arms, I would not be upset at all if another game for them never came out again. Though I find the asserting a bit confusing. None of these franchises are as popular as the ones that have stuck around, like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, so I feel it's a bit unrealistic to think every RPG franchise can do that. Grandia I never felt would be a huge franchise with multiple titles, and I'm surprised it got as many as it did. Though as mentioned the series took a drastic turn with Xtreme. The first two games stand as a thing on their own. I don't see the issue with no more games for them being released. All series have to come to an end at some time and there are always new games and franchises rising up to take their places.
.hack was a novelty back in the day, but with the rise of similar franchises like Sword Art Online and Log Horizon, and actual Japanese MMOs like Final Fantasy Onine and Phantasy Star Online, and even multiplayer games like Monster Hunter, there might be little need for it anymore. .hack is also a case where the story was finished, and attempts to expand the story beyond that have been a bit questionable and unnecessary. One could probably expand the story of the World, but should they? That's the million dollar question for a lot of these franchises. Just because you could do something doesn't mean you should.
There's a few unfortunate cases (though none of them are RPGs) like Silent Hill, Castlevania, and Metroid where the franchises were extended after taken over by Western developers and became nothing like their original titles, but those can be ignored if one wishes. Though in Metroid's case we also got a few titles by the original developers again at least, though one was a remake, one was a flashback, and another effectively conclude the series' story. I feel any future Metroid games might probably be more western reboots/side stories as there's really nothing left to tell in the story. Other M had to resort to being a flashback considering Fusion ended the series, and once you have to resort to going back to continue a franchise, it might be wise to let it go. Even though it's a Nintendo franchise and Nintendo has no problem milking things, it's also one of the few that had an actual story and plot progression. Though as mentioned, reboots can fix that if Nintendo wishes.
I felt Breath of Fire peaked with 2 and 3 myself. 1 and 4 were alright, and Dragon Quarter was enjoyable, but extremely different. However, I do not think the magic of 2 and 3 could be recreated again. Suikoden is similar. 2 was the peak for me, and while the later games were fine, I don't think 'fine' is what developers want or should strive for. For me, Wild Arms took an unwanted direction after 3. The first 3 games I loved, but the later ones seemed to different to me. Not bad on their own, but the change in combat system did not seem like a Wild Arms game anymore.
I do not regret any of them fading away. Like people who love a certain anime, sometimes you don't need a sequel or for it to continue for hundreds of episodes and it's fine just as a simple one or two cour show. Then you move on and find new stuff to enjoy

The problem is there isn't new stuff to enjoy and these series haven't actually ended. The anime analogy also dosen't work because we're not looking for a continuation of the story or characters, but rather something with the same gameplay or concepts done again or done better. It dosen't even have to be under the title, just something with a new name. A spiritual successor.
Tri Ace dosen't need to make another Star Ocean, but it sure would be nice for them to make another action rpg, except thier output has slowed and now they are working on other people's games. Even if PSO turns out to not be another MH clone with PS2 assets, it's not a replacement for a well made Tri Ace game. Something like Valkyrie Profile or Star Ocean.
Game Arts dosen't have to make another Grandia, but no one really cared are was asking for them to make a MH clone. Will they make another jrpg? Who knows?
The Shadow Hearts series ended. Fine, regardless of the fact that no series has come in an taken up it's unique atmosphere the bloodline sadly ends at Lost Odyssey. With feelplus delivering mostly mediocre titles afterwords.
Did there need to be another Wild Arms? probably not and Media Vision is busy, but still there were plenty of places to go with the grid battle system.
Konami dosen't even make games anymore(outside of MGS) so of course Sukidoken is gone.
Square seems stuck on FF.
BoF seems like a series that could do anything, but I guess Capcom isn't interested in actually making jrpgs.
The problem isn't so much that these series have ended, but that so little has come up in thier wake. Especially if you like consoles. Handhelds are a little better. Just a little.
You're options are a few jrpgs that come out here and there and the otaku stuff that others like to peddle.

Did it? I remember before being forced to go there eventually and not been given the option to skip it. Though it's been over a year since I played it all the way through, so I could be misremembering.

Uh, I'm currently playing Witch and The Hundred Knight, Atelier Escha & Logy, Bravely Default, and Lightning Returns and that's just from the past month or so. If you look at the entire PS3/DS/PSP library then you got literally hundreds of RPGs. Helps to look around and actually see what comes out.

There were plenty of Japanese developers making plenty of Japanese console games that weren't that. Now, not so much.
I have every jrpg on the PS3 released in the US not counting NIS games. Even then I sadly have Time and Eternity.
I have every 360 jrpg released in the US. Even doubles when it comes to things like RoF.
It's not hard to do this since there aren't that many to acquire anyway. Are they even good is the real question. Things like Eternal Sonata, Time and Eternity, Infinite Undiscovery, and Enchanted Arms sure aren't home to write about.
When it comes to the PSP, I've played plenty of what it had to offer. From Ys Seven and Hexyz Force. I didn't even stop there. I've imported and played through titles such as FF Type 0, The Last Ranker, Zero no Kiseki, Nayuta no Kiseki, 7th Dragon 2020, and Sol Trigger.
On the DS side I think I can safely say I've played through most of the well received titles like Radiant Historia and TWEY. I'm playing though Bravely Default right now. It's ok at best.
When it comes to jrpgs, it really has nothing to with me not looking. Thats for sure.
There is a factual obscene of jrpgs on consoles. It's already bad enough we have to hold up NIS stuff now. Atlus has been mostly absent on consoles and they sure haven't made a jrpg for them. Square has only been able to whore out FF. Konami dosen't make games. Capcom dosen't even have a clue these days. You're Shadow Hearts, Digital Devil Sagas, Grandias, and whatnot are gone and haven't been replaced.
What great jrpgs have come to PS3 for instance? Ni No Kuni was ok. Resonance of Fate was what three years ago,? I guess there's the Yakuza games if you want to count them. Tales I guess, but those have been pretty subpar with Xilla being the most bland game out there. Either way, compared to the PS2 where there were plenty of varied, interesting, and quality jrpgs the PS3's been pretty pathetic.
So don't tell me there's been plenty of new stuff or that I need to actually look, because there is'nt.

Green Burial: Choose to be Buried the Natural Way
Posted on Jun 16, 2010 | Comments 22
Burials are mostly the living image of how we chose to live. So if you have a heart concerned about the environment, you have to consider being buried the ecological way.
Traditional burial and cremation practices have a negative environmental impact. The complicated methods of embalming prevent decomposing and the return to the Earth takes longer for the body. You can choose this or you can go for a greener way.
This would mean your relatives will choose a wood casket, no embalming will be involved and you will be buried a bit closer to the surface.
Click on the Image for Larger View.
So if you want to become part of the dirt you will go into, consider a simpler and closer to nature way of burial. Nature will welcome you with open arms.

We failed to see the fine print that the source of your beautiful graphics is Nathan Butler of Nathan Butler Funeral Home in Indiana, one of the first funeral homes to pioneer Green Burial in this country and certainly one of the most qualified resources on this subject.
If we don't encase the dead deep underground in cement and steel, they will most assuredly rise up against us during the coming zompocalypse.
Bury them right, or cremate them, unless you want to become a zombie too!
Interestingly, Muslims already do the greener way to bury their dead. Nothing but a clean white shrouder. I hope that simple fact opens up some peoples thoughts and clears away the doubt.
FOREST GRAVEYARDS. Plant a tree above the buried. Their physical self provides nutrients for the tree. The tree provides much more for the living. Imagine neatly kept forests. Nuts, fruits, all interplanted in a permaculture setting. That is a green burial.
Those are my wishes. To be buried under a sapling.
Wow! Excellent idea! I especially like the fruit tree idea. I'm gonna go with mango!
I'm glad that with all the crap happening in the world people have time or even care enough to actually research this kind of thing.
Um…. dying IS a part of the "real world," like it or not. No one or no living thing is immune. In light of the environmental disaster that is the BP oil spill, this article is perfect to get across the point that we do need to think about the way we do things.
Too bad that "Green Burial" would be illegal in most places.
Islamic burials in Bosnia and Herzegovina offer a very green way of burying: the deceased is given a bath and wrapped in sheets. There is no casket in the sense of a closed box, the deceased is laid on a wooden surface with a small frame on the narrow sides. A large piece of cloth is used to wrap the frame with the deceased in it.
A hole around 2m deep is dug and the deceased is placed in it with wooden boards placed over in a diagonal way and covered with ground. Usually a wooden headpiece is put and that's it.
(some overdo it with later-added tomb-like stone and concrete structures)
Excellent. Now it will be much easier for my zombie army to rise from the grave.
If it's good enough for Nate Fisher, it's good enough for me.
And in Six Feet Under, didn't his in-laws get super-upset that he chose to bury his wife that way? I think it was illegal in that show too, which is too bad. It makes sense to do it this way, really.
Wrap body in organic cotton cloth. Dig 6 foot hole. Place body in hole. Cover hole. Oh wait, Muslims already do that all over the world.
Cheap, Environmentally Friendly and you get to give a fraction back to the earth.
Or you could be buried ass up and make a nice bike rack.
Well, if you really want to do one last good deed, consider http://medcure.org/
One can go for a sky-burial. Put the body high up in the open sky, perched on some structure made of natural materials. Then vultures/crows would be able to finish off the carcass.
@ ZEN, you are a well read person !
undertakers will go bankrupt if people start following the way of muslims, also the same lot is used again for other muslim burials, a few years later.
My prefered way to be honest, I think donate all my needed organs, then give the remainder for all the insects to feed on. And hey, I ain't there anymore and at least I've won the lottery of life and actually lived!! As for any loved ones light a candle at home remember my life and get on with yours cause youll be joining me one day.
I'm very curious of the legality of this. This is how I've wanted to be buried for a long time, but my understanding is that there are strict laws on burials in most of the US.
Traditional Western burials do seem a great waste.
On the other hand, with a green burial, I just hope no-one later suspects you were murdered and wants to exhume your body to find evidence. Coz there won't be any left.
Yeah, WTF is up with standard burial in this country? Though, as others who are concerned about the coming zombiepocalypse have noted, cremation is obviously the way to go. If I weren't so concerned about the looming zombie threat, a green burial would obviously be fine. The standard burial racket is absolutely appalling and detrimental to the planet for many reasons.

Accessibility A Major Topic at EDUCAUSE 2012
With a couple of months to go before the EDUCAUSE 2012 Annual Conference opens on November 6 in Denver, Colorado (and online), I wanted to highlight the large number of sessions focusing on technology accessibility for persons with disabilities. In addition to the sessions listed below, many others will touch on accessibility to some degree as the higher education IT community continues to expand its emphasis in this area. (For example, many presenters planning to talk about web design and development indicate that their sessions will include discussion of universal design principles.) However, in reviewing the abstracts for the following, I found that they have some aspect of accessibility for persons with disabilities as their core topic. If I missed any, though, please identify them by commenting on this post. I'd like to provide as thorough of a listing as I can to help EDUCAUSE 2012 attendees find the accessibility sessions that meet their needs and those of their campuses.
(Note: EDUCAUSE will provide captioning for all 63 webcasts of EDUCAUSE 2012 sessions. Prior to October 1, 2012, captioning can be requested for any of the 25+ exclusive online sessions. After October 1, a session transcript can be made available on request. Please see the registration form to request one of these options.)

Reviewed by Gareth Jones
Directed by Seiji Chiba
Starring Masanori Mimoto, Shuji Kashiwabara, Donpei Tsuchihira, Mika Hijii
Distributed by Revolver Entertainment
It's pretty much common knowledge amongst cinephiles – especially those who enjoy their bloodshed – that some of the craziest, most creative, mind-bending and irreverent cinema around comes straight from Japan. Suffice to say, Seiji Chiba's Alien vs. Ninja lands itself firmly in "crazy" territory. Let's begin:
Ninja trio Yamata, Jinnai and Nezumi are on the retreat after a successful mission (obviously not a quiet one, being that it ends with a giant CGI explosion) when they notice a large flaming asteroid heading towards the nearby forest. Meeting up with a group of their fellow kin, including the smokin' hot female ninja Rin, they head off to investigate the landing site.
Before they get there, however, they're greeted by the appearance of a young frightened boy from the next village and an alien creature that makes short, bloody work of most of their crew before zipping off amongst the trees after Yamata removes the end of its tail. From there we have our group returning to warn their village before going out to destroy the alien menace once and for all. Cue a bunch of lightly comedic situations, gleeful gore, ridiculous guys in rubber suits that look like a cross between a poor man's Giger alien and a dolphin, and, quite frankly, more fun than you would ever expect you're going to have after the plodding first 25 minutes.
It would be impertinent to go into too much depth regarding the actual events that occur during Alien vs. Ninja as the sheer escalating insanity of the battles and plotline are what makes it an overall success. To know exactly what's coming would serve to rob you of that inimitable feeling of sheer astonishment so I'll cover the negatives first. As mentioned, the first 25 minutes or so of the film is badly paced; it's obviously designed to act mainly as character development, but save for one pretty well choreographed (yet bloodless) scene of swordplay, it pretty much amounts only to a bunch of walking around in the woods and horribly stilted comedy in the form of the usual comic relief "idiot" character, Nezumi. In fact, this character is quite possibly the worst thing about the entire film – the type of comic relief character that pushes too far, overshooting endearingly stupid and dropping right into the minefield of sheer annoyance. Due to this, Alien vs. Ninja is a difficult one to really get into… but trust me; hold on.
Once the first alien attack occurs, a few dodgy digital effects are thrown about that fail to impress, but it's also at this point that Alien vs. Ninja ceases taking itself seriously in any way whatsoever. A good thing, too, because once you catch a glimpse of the first screaming dolphin-creature ripping someone in half, so will you. If you don't, then stop right there; this isn't the movie for you! With each passing moment the batshit-insane-o-meter continues to fill as we're treated to flying buckets of gore, disembowelment, decapitation, and underground tunneling monsters, the creatures themselves acting like giant rolling blade-wheels, a perverted alien attempting to catch a grope of Rin's assets before we're treated to the sexiest alien battle scene you'll enjoy in a long time, alien parasites pulled from mouths and, finally, a climax so absolutely fucking nuts that I literally cheered. Once it gets going, Alien vs. Ninja manages to conjure up that same sense of excited bemusement and sheer, unbridled entertainment that I haven't felt so strongly in a genre picture since Ryuhei Kitamura's Versus. If that sings to you, then you absolutely must own this film. As a movie, it's difficult to come down too hard on it, but the failure of the comic relief character to actually be funny and the rather hard-going first act prevent me from going higher than the score below. Still, if you know what you're getting in for and, ideally, have a few friends and your mind-altering substance of choice to hand, Alien vs. Ninja will show you a whale (or should that be dolphin?) of a time!
Being a low-budget, shot on digital flick, Revolver Entertainment's DVD release of Alien vs. Ninja presents the feature just about as well as could be expected – though there are still a few noticeable moments of digital blurring during the more hectic fight scenes and dense forest, and the colour can look a little more washed out than intended at times. Still, it's been given a good amount of love in the presentation department, which is more than can be said for extras. Can we get a trailer, an interview… some behind the scenes footage or a music video for one of the kickin' J-rock songs from the soundtrack? Nope. We get nothing.

Meet the 2013 Future Curators
March 11, 2013
We asked the 2013 Future Curators to tell us a little bit about themselves and why they wanted to participate in the program. Here's what they said:
Kendall Applebaum: I am a senior at Nichols School. Being accepted into this program has been such an honor. It is extremely eye-opening and has really shown me what it is like behind the scenes at an art museum. I would love to pursue this as a career when I'm older. I have many other interests, such as photography, ice hockey, and lacrosse. I am attending Oswego State next year and will be playing hockey and lacrosse. I hope to go for my BFA there as well. I am excited to create our show and I cannot wait for everyone to see how it turns out!
Claire Augello: I attend Lewiston-Porter High School and reside in Youngstown, New York. The AK Teens program has been one of the most amazing experiences in my life so far and I look forward to creating an exquisite show with the team. Art is a huge part of my life and hopefully always will be. Thanks to this program I am learning more about art and what it takes to become a part of an art museum such as the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. I hope to someday have my photographs in an art museum as prestigious as the Albright-Knox.
Paloma D'Auria: I go to Nichols School and I am so excited to be a part of this program. I have always been very drawn to the theater and I like to think of an art curator as the equivalent of a theater director. I am really enjoying the opportunity to help direct an art show alongside thirteen great teens.
Joshua Fraass: I am a junior at St. Joe's. I love art and have been in art classes throughout my high school career. I started my own business—Go Green Recycled & Vintage—to share my passion for saving the earth and as a way to show people my creative ideas. I love what I do and I am honored to bring my business and art experience together in the Future Curators program and exhibition.
Katiana Hernandez: I am a senior at Williamsville East High School with quite the passion for art. I love being in the Future Curators program. Being surrounded by all things art—and others who have the same passion for art as I do—is the highlight of my week. The show will be amazing!
Whitney Kehl: I'm a senior at Attica High School. I love fashion, learning, and music, among other arts. I've been having such a great time being part of the Future Curators program so far. What really excites me, in addition to talking to all of the fascinating Gallery staff members and other teens, is getting to know the Albright-Knox itself. There is so much more to learn from it and other museums, which makes me very excited for the career path I will pursue in curating. I'm really starting to feel comfortable with what I want to do for the rest of my life.
Saraphina Masters: I am a senior at Tapestry High School and am happy to be going away to college in August. I plan on majoring in Classical Studies because of my long-held interest in Greek mythology. I play soccer for both school and a travel league, and I read extensively in my free time. I'm thrilled to be a part of the Future Curators team, and look forward to all opportunities presented.
Stephen Matthew: I am a junior at St. Joe's. I love to snowboard, paint, and listen to music. Music is a very important thing in my life because it fuels my creative process and it calms me down. I also love to help people and give back to the community. I love the Future Curators program because it gives me a realistic glimpse into what being a curator really is.
Megan McCuen: I'm a senior at Frontier High School. I plan on going to college for art history and museum studies. This program has afforded me the amazing opportunity to expose myself to life at a museum.
Morgan McCutcheon: I'm a 16-year-old junior who attends West Seneca West Senior High School. I wanted to join this program to experience what a career like this can offer me, and just enjoy this experience with people from different artistic backgrounds. I love the group I work with and I enjoy every session with them.
Brodie McPherson: I am so excited to be a part of this amazing Future Curators program. This program at the Albright-Knox will give me experiences that I may never get the opportunity to have again. As a senior at Lewiston-Porter High School heavily involved in the arts, I was ecstatic to discover that I had been accepted into this program. I am looking forward to creating many memories with the rest of the teens involved.
Alexa Nicoletti: I go to Lewiston-Porter High School. I am very interested in the arts and hope to go to college for art next fall. So far, this program has taught me a lot about the museum side of the art world, and I'm very excited to continue on with it and learn even more.
Maria Root: I am a junior at City Honors. I have always been passionate about making art and I am very excited to be exploring a more conceptual approach to it. I'm having a great time meeting other people my age who share my interest and learning about the behind-the-scenes processes that go into curating an exhibition. I have learned so much from this unique and informative experience.
Charlotte Saunders: I attend Sweet Home High School as a senior. I've been involved in art my whole life, taking classes as a little girl and, last summer, taking classes at the Albright-Knox. Next year, as a freshman in college, I will pursue a degree in fine arts. The Future Curators program has not only inspired me to view art in a new way, but has also exposed me to the different fields there are out there for my near future.
The 2013 Future Curators are currently sifting through hundreds of their peers' submissions to select artwork for their exhibition, which will be on view at the Gallery from Friday, May 3, through Sunday, June 16, 2013, with an exhibition opening celebration on Thursday, May 2.

Tonight, the second highest lottery jackpot in United States history, $355 million (boils down to $225 million) could be awarded if someone has the matching numbers on their ticket.
The chances of winning are near impossible—one out of 170 million—but if you won, you could pretty much buy whatever you want.
Here is what sports-related things I would buy if I were to win the jackpot.
Please share your dream sports purchases in the comments section.

Win or lose I rarely accept or offer rematches. When I play, I play lots and the fastest way to get to the next game is 'new game' If I log off after a game it's because I have a life outside of chess.com. If we meet again over the board today or some other day I will never abort regardless of our personal score. If you're bent out of shape because you didn't get a rematch, sorry about your luck. Play well.
