Galleries have been disappearing for a number of years and not just downtown. TOO many to list, sadly. It's not a surprise, when it comes to art we love to look but we rarely buy, the economy just sucks.
Yes, correct. It was the so-called "art galleries" that was holding the block down.
Susan this sounds so funny and I'm sure you were so funny and wonderful in it.. I would love to read a copy. Aline in London
Everyone should visit the awesome artists' studios at The Monterey Court Studio Galleries conveniently located on Tucson's historic Miracle Mile.
Many thanks to Sherilyn Forrester for helping to get the word out about the New Play Festival.

Mike/Jethro..Whatever your real name is, quite unlike you and most losers like you, I have a life outside of facebook, Yahoo and other assorted internet trolling. I do not have time to keep running back to this thread in an attempt to educate heathens that continually admit that they are too ignorant to even understand the basics. Lets recap what you should have learned by now. 1. Pink skin, European surnames and the Kings English are NOT indigenous to this region. 2. you are nothing more than a racist right wing Tea bagger that also probably claims to be a Christian and I have quite easily and adequately exposed you as such. 3. As a descendent of a European anchor Baby you have NO right to speak about OTHER illegal immigrants as though you were somehow better than them. If you want to speak about them in a way other than as your equals, go the hell back where you belong and I will listen to you, until then your opinions or anything you feel or may think is totally irrelevant to anyone except yourself. 4. Illegal immigration started in 1492, YOU are a Bi-Product of this illegal invasion NOT the Mexican people or anyone else with brown skin. Now go back inside your trailer, brush both of your teeth, think about the reality of everything you should have learned and leave issues like Immigration and reigning in the Border Patrol abuse to folks like me. The real adults have this, I promise.
What a great review, makes me want to hop a plane to Tucson to see how they do Oklahoma! there.
The soaring music is unforgettable and will stay with you as long as you live.
Perhaps the students get into the performance with so much enthusiasm because the musical is a simple story of human nature, mostly good, with really only one, Jud, the bad.
Oklahoma! is a happy play, unlike the usual American entertainment of violence and vulgarity. No crotch shots here, no bad guys win. It is nice to see good prevail. The audience will no doubt leave feeling happy for having such a fine evening with Oklahoma!
Please let's agree not to notice that the cowboy's called Curly in one paragraph and Curley in another and then back to Curly on third reference. I did that on purpose!
Bottom line: Do we really want millions upon millions of illegal aliens in the USA. With their reproduction rate at this rate America will be an Hispanic America by 2050 or even earlier. If you really think that at that point we will still be a world power you are sadly mistaken. I just have to look at the current Tucson crime rate to see where we are going.
We are do screwed ...but we just don't know it. (Some of us do).
Norm, there is no way you are for real. Your posts have to be from a right winger just trying to make the pro-amnesty crowd look like a bunch of crazy uneducated ignorant hatemongers. Especially after your "I shouldn't even acknowledge replies from posts containing European surnames" comment. That was Hilarious. I almost spit about my organic fair trade coffee...
If you are for real, you are too far gone to attempt a rational discussion about American's Immigration polices. It is like when two people debate on the issue of Radical Islamic Terrorists and the US's response to it. Then one person believes in the "911 was an inside job" rant. That is when I call a person a moron and realize there is no finding middle ground with the insane.
That is how I feel about your last rant.
Just to point out you did not even counterpoint my accurate depiction history of this region. I was waiting for you to mention Aztlan. Then I would have spit out my coffee..
Mike..this conversation could go on forever, it normally does when I state facts to racist fake Americans that think they belong here while displaying the utmost contempt for the people that actually do. BTW, your name is Mike?, really?..give me a break, I shouldn't even acknowledge replies from posts containing European surnames. I realize that most of you are victims of your twisted beliefs that were instilled there by generations of racist teachings, poor parenting and a downright willingness to remain ignorant. You went to a great deal of trouble to sound intelligent while spreading your misguided, disingenuous, racist banter, your dead giveaway (or at least one of them) was the ludicrous comment that all of you make "stop playing the race card' I have never known a racist that didn't immediately use this silly remark as a weak defense after he/she was properly outted/identified as what they truly are. I have been dealing with people like you since the early 60s, trust me when I say that there is nothing that you could possibly utter that I haven't heard at least a thousand times before, maybe in a different context or with a few words changed to better fit the particular group of minorities that are being attacked. I bet you even claim to be a Christian!
I actually wasn't even specifically referring to Arizona when I was speaking about you illegals, I was referring to this entire country. It doesn't matter in the least how Mexico viewed this area/state, how large or small the population of Mexicans were, or if there were disputes between different groups in Mexico. (That's the business of the Mexican Government and it's people) None of this smokescreen that you attempted to blow my way, justifies a European invasion, nor does it lend legitimacy to your erroneous claim that the decedents of the invaders (you) are the gatekeepers over the stolen land and somehow have a right to claim that the indigenous people of this region have no business on their own land.
Your silly and childlike rant is filled with references to "Americans" the U.S. etc., the very fact that you are constantly trying to pass foreign invaders and their European decedents (you) off as Americans, should in and of itself prove how twisted, misinformed and disingenuous almost everything you think and say is likely to be. In reference to your cartoonish rant of the day about how I Can get out if I have a problem with European invaders attempting to control the region, my response to you is the obvious. As a European invader on foreign soil, YOU have absolutely NO right or authority to tell anyone to go anywhere, if you cant deal with that simple truth perhaps you should sell your trailer, pack up your Willie Nelson tapes and head to the International airport. Don't forget to swing Weight Watchers and pick up your wife. As far as your racist rant against the "La Raza Studies" you have lost that battle as well, there is a well organized and highly successful movement taking place to bring MAS to every school Nationwide, not just in Arizona.
Almost every point you attempted to make about the Border Patrol is riddled with untruths, half truths and absolute lies! Not only do you NOT have a clue how background checks are conducted, how a file can lay on someone's desk for months and never even be processed, how a lack of manpower or hiring surges can effect the reliability of these processes or even that passing a background check in most instances, means absolutely nothing except that the person has never been caught or his mental instability has never piqued anyone's attention. Having been raised in a Police family (Real Ones) I am well aware of the mentality (or lack thereof) that one must possess to seriously compare a Border Guard to a real cop. (something you attempt to do all throughout your post/rant)
"I would like to know what they are doing that is "unconstitutional." Really?? You mean to tell me that a person like me who gets all of their information/education from the La Raza Studies at TUSD, can compile 3 1/3 file boxes (and growing) of documentation on these types of incidents/cases and a smart individual like you who quotes history and case law I(n a weak attempt to cover-up thousands of actual occurrences), cannot find any proof??? Have you ever shot a straight line in your life about anything? so incredibly pitiful - gotta suck to only have hate as one's companion. I am well aware of the 'Constitution Free' zones that have been set-up in our nation. none of this is applicable to my previous comments. Illegal Immigration began in 1492, Deal with it !!
Who's "homeland" are you talking about Norm? Arizona was first inhabited by the Hohokam people which might have been related to the present day O'odham nation groups. However, another theory is that the O'odham groups pushed off the Hohokam and took over this area for themselves. Are you talking about the Spanish that through their missionaries conquered this area from the O'odham? However, I am guessing you are talking about the Mexicans that through their revolution against Spain required this area. However, Mexico did not even consider this area as a state because of it very small population of Mexicans. This area was part of the Alta California Territory and even there were disputes between different groups in Mexico.
Although, this particular area was purchased by the US from Mexico through the Gadsden Purchase. Which Santa Anna basically conceded this area would have revolted sooner or later because of the large population of Americans that settled in the Southwest. So, again the only "homeland" you should be talking about is the O'odham people, which even then they could have stole it from previous native tribes. So, the US "stole" this land from Mexico. Mexico "stole" this land from Spain. Spain "stole" this land from the Sobaipuri people which probably were related to the O'odham. That is life. If you truly have an issue with how the US is the LEGAL owner of this area, get the hell out. So, get off your high horse and stop getting your information from the La Raza Studies at TUSD.
Border Patrol Agents (like most Law Enforcement) go through an extensive background check which can last over a year. When a person makes it through and gets hired, they go through a 5 month Academy and learn about the Constitution, Applied Authority and Immigration Law to conduct their job. I would like to know what they are doing that is "unconstitutional." Every part of their duties are backed by Laws, Regulations, and court cases. Their checkpoints were ruled Constitutional by the Supreme Court. Their traffic stops are based on several court cases that allow any Law Enforcement Officer to conduct a brief detention based on reasonable suspicion. Maybe before you just spew out words like "illegal and unconstitutional" you should research cases like "Terry vs. Ohio, Martinez-Fuerte vs. the US, United States v. Brignoni-Ponce, and laws like INA 287, INA 235, USC Title 19, USC Title 21.
So get off your misguided view of the "Border crossed them" crap, stop playing the race card, and pick up a history book. Maybe we should just allow the Baja Arizona crowd go a step further and give back Southern Arizona to Mexico. Then Mexico could feel bad and give it back to Spain, However, then Spain would have to give it back to the O'odham people. Then we would have to find wherever the Hohokam people went...
The only people I feel bad for are the O'odham people. However, that has NOTHING to do with how millions of people are illegally living in this country.
Got to love these people who stand on foreign soil with their pink skin, speaking the Kings English and telling the indigenous people of this continent that they don't belong here in their homeland. Don't like illegal immigrants? stop being one 1-800 FLY EUROPE, Please take your family with you. I love how the European invaders ratchet on and on about how "Hundreds of U.S Citizens fought and died to make the U.S the free country it is today".. If you want hero's shouldn't you actually be discussing how many of your European invader ancestors were lost murdering and pillaging this continent while stealing it from its rightful owners, so people like you can provide us with comedy relief as you stand here all full of yourselves claiming a land that is NOT and can NOT ever be yours. You people do realize that you are nothing more than the decedents of illegal European anchor babies, don't you?
Now getting back to the subject matter of this article. The United states Border Patrol is out of control, they have morphed into nothing more than a poorly trained, unintelligent, rogue vigilante squad. The thousands of illegal and unconstitutional actions that have taken place by this Agency and it's representatives are well documented. Since the lives of the dark skinned people who belong in this region, mean nothing to you because your imaginary border line crossed them many decades ago, Perhaps you would like to discuss the hundreds of recent abuse cases that are pending from American Citizens (yes, the fake pink ones that you so dearly love) No matter how much, disingenuous people attempt to rally behind this Rogue Agency and defend their inexcusable actions, the fact remains that there are BIG changes needed within this agency, including but not limited to.. Independent citizen monitors, congressional oversight and a total revamp of their policies, procedures, hiring standards and training. Rest assured these changes are coming and they are coming much faster than most people imagine. Excellent article by the way.
I agree with Mike. The bottom line is that people that have entered the US illegally should be deported. Try entering any other civilized country illegally and see what happens.
Heck, try to enter Mexico illegally and see what happens to you!
I have absolutely no sympathy for families that are separated because a member is deported. Take the whole family back with you. If you don't like living in your homeland, than make the changes in your society or government to make life better.
Hundreds of US Citizens fought and died to make the US the free country it is today. Just stepping across the border entitles no one to anything the US has to offer.
Hopefully, if the numbers are correct and 400,000 illegals are deported every year. Then within 10 years the majority of them will be gone.
Todd, your biased opinion on our government enforcing immigration law (which most countries do) might change if it was YOUR Social Security number that was being used illegally. Identity Theft is a huge issue in our country and a lot of it can be attributed to illegal aliens using them. Eight of the 10 states with the highest percentage of illegal aliens in their total population are among the top 10 states in identity theft (Arizona, California, Florida, Texas, Nevada, New York, Georgia, and Colorado).
If you still do not feel this is a important issue concerning illegal aliens, Can I used your Social Security number to get a loan? I promise I won't ruin your credit....
What did Law Enforcement ever do do you Todd? This is second negative leaning piece authored by you concerning law enforcement in about a month. Did you ever think of blaming people that are breaking federal law and they are the reason for the over crowded immigration prison system and not the Law Enforcement Officers, Prison Guards, and Judicial System?
Comparing our immigration laws to "Jim Crow" laws is like comparing any US president to Hitler. There is no comparison. You can disagree with our immigration laws, but comparing them to Jim Crow laws is just dumb.. I really hope your book has more balanced approach to this issue, but reading your opinion pieces in the Weekly, I will not hold my breath...
However, maybe I am overreacting to the issue of millions of people illegal entering and staying in our country. Unlawfully being present in our country is comparable to jay walking to some people. It must be the fault of our Law Enforcement Officials that they are just getting in their way....

Oh, & I also botched the original press release for THE GLASS MENAGERIE in January when I typed that Bette Davis was in the film instead of Katharine Hepburn. I had Bette on the brain b/c I had been promoting the film, THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER starring Bette Davis & Monty Woolley. So, you see...we are all human. =)
Apology accepted & appreciated. If it helps, I spelled Jay Leno's last name wrong in J-School at Michigan State & that was an immediate failing grade. Course, it wasn't a "real" article, but lesson learned. LOL
Bridging the gap between the sensibilities of a Tucson audience and the portrayal of real life drama happening only a few miles to our south through theater, is a supremely daunting task. These plays make an heroic attempt to widen our view. I am very proud of our efforts. These plays , I believe, motivate an audience to know and understand more. - Jim Klingenfus, Sound Designer.
My apologies for the phone number. I feel like a sub-human mongrel.
Just FYI... there's a typo in the phone number - instead of 622-1162, it should be 621-1162. Thanks!

There can be only one — and it might be Ryan Reynolds. The trades are reporting that Reynolds is the frontrunner to take over the "Highlander" reboot for Summit Entertainment, with "Intruders" director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo still attached to direct.
Variety, who reported the news, isn't sure if an offer has already been extended to Reynolds, but their sources are telling them that the two sides are "in talks and are very interested in working together." But, they caution, Reynolds still has plenty of other offers that might he might choose instead.
Reynolds seems like an odd choice to star in a "Highlander" reboot. Mind you, not that he couldn't do it. The guy knows his way around action, and whirled a couple of mean swords as Deadpool in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine". And while his would-be franchise starring turn in "Green Lantern" may have gone down in flames, his last movie, "Safe House" with Denzel Washington was a much-needed hit, with $201 million worldwide.
Still, as an immortal Highlander? He doesn't look, well, old enough. Gruff enough. You know, like he's lived through a thousand years and seen a thousand bad things. He's just so … contemporary looking. And young.
"Highlander", of course, concerns a race of immortal humans that travel across time trying to take each other's heads. The 1986 original starred Christopher Lambert and spawn a couple of sequels, each one more ludicrous than the next. It also spun off a very decent TV show starring Adrian Paul, who eventually took over the film franchise from Lambert a few years back.
And let's face it, Reynolds fans. Chances of us getting a "Deadpool" movie is getting bleaker by the year. Maybe a "Highlander" movie is a possible replacement. After all, Ryan Reynolds will finally get his hands on a pair of swords again, and who says his Highlander can't be a wiseass with a mouth on him?
By the way. My favorite "Highlander" movie? Bar none, the first sequel. It's friggin' genius.

Morris, Patterson
re-enter after injuries
Texas Tech coach Kristy Curry reported Casey Morris and Jackie Patterson appeared to be OK after the pair left the game with 11:20 to go in the second half of Tech's 70-63 victory against No. 23 Kansas on Saturday.
Morris and Patterson went for a loose ball and came up hurt.
Morris went to the locker room and came back with two fingers bandaged on her left hand. She re-entered the game with 6:17 to go
"It's a dislocated finger on her left hand," Curry said, "and we're just having her evaluated, but she's great and obviously was good. We put her back in and feel good about the prognosis."
Patterson stayed on the court for about a minute and was helped off. She appeared to hurt her left leg, but she was seen stretching it out on the bench and never went into the locker room.
She sat out the next 11:12, but came in with under 10 seconds to go.
Curry said Patterson looks OK, but will be checked out again in the morning.
Turnovers spark turnaround
Kansas helped dig itself out of a hole in the second half of its 70-63 loss to Texas Tech with a 15-6 run out of the gate.
The Jayhawks forced four turnovers during the run and scored six points off the extra possessions. Kansas didn't score any points off only four Lady Raiders turnovers in the first 20 minutes of the game.
Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson said that's what has helped them overcome early deficits early on this season.
Forward Chelsea Gardner, who scored 18 points and snagged 13 rebounds off the bench, was a big catalyst for the Jayhawks' renewed defensive effort in the second half.
"I was just staying out in the passing lanes and getting deflections and stepping onto ball side," Gardner.
Tech coach Kristy Curry said she tried to emphasize the "little things" with her team when she got a hold of them during timeouts.
The Lady Raiders finished with 12 turnovers.
"I just think we tried to settle them down," Curry said. "Tried to simplify some things offensively. ... It's just a credit to the kids for staying poised, for staying calm."
Kansas hopes to stop bleeding
Saturday's 70-63 loss to Texas Tech marks the third consecutive Big 12 Conference loss for No. 23 Kansas, which will likely drop out of the AP top 25 poll when it's released Monday.
Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson said this is a "bounce-back league," and that's exactly what the Jayhawks (11-5, 2-3 in Big 12) intend to do when they host Texas at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
"You can't let a loss beat your twice," Henrickson said.
Kansas was ranked as high as No. 17 this season before going 4-5 in its past nine games.
"You got to have some resolve and resiliency in this one," Henrickson said. "You don't want to hang your head and pout — it'll just start piling up on you. We got to be tougher than that."
Free Throws
Chynna Brown leads the team in scoring in Big 12 Conference play, averaging 15 points per game ... Saturday's 70-63 win against Kansas marked Tech's first back-to-back league wins since its first two games of Big 12 play last season ... The Lady Raiders improved to 2-1 against teams ranked in the AP top 25 ... Kansas' top two scorers, Carolyne Davis and Angel Goodrich, were both held to conference lows in scoring (Davis 11, Goodrich eight) in Tech's Saturday' win.

A totally reasonable case could be made that Gary Busey was thrown to the wolves this week by teammates who made him project manager in order to watch him fail. But even if he was, wouldn't you have done the same thing? The absent-minded actor somehow outlasted stronger players Mark McGrath and Richard Hatch, and in doing so, lowered the men from a juggernaut to a slowly imploding machine. It was time for him to go, and at no point was that more clear than when he sat in front of a room full of strangers desperately trying to explain what the hell a kite had to do with Omaha Steaks.
Even though a C- effort would have bested the Busey-led men, the women ultimately proved far better than that, headed by surprisingly capable project manager Hope. Her voice may not have been loud enough to drown out Star's meddling, but for the most part, she was assertive, willing to make decisions and competent. It wasn't quite enough to move her up the rankings this week, but it definitely was enough to showcase her as more than an also-ran.
The Celebrity Apprentice Power Rankings are a combination of ordered lists put together by Cinema Blend writers Mack Rawden and Jessica Grabert. Sixteen points are given for a first place vote, and this week, nine was given for a last place vote. Eight contestants have already been eliminated; thus, they automatically occupy the bottom slots. Here's a look at how this week played out…
#1) John Rich (32): I was a bit concerned about John this week after Busey called him "boy" and he, for all intensive purposes, shut down, but a good night's sleep did him well. On the day of the presentation, he worked like a madman assembling the odds and ends and making sure all was ready for Meatloaf's cooking expo. Expect a big effort out of him this coming week as he'll surely recommit and become the dominating force so many of us have earmarked as the eventual winner. Prolonged exposure to Gary Busey drives sane men to the breaking point. Thankfully for Rich, the radiation has lifted before too much harm was done.
#2) Star Jones (30): Star Jones just keeps working her way through tasks. She's vociferous about what needs to be done, she can at least pretend to be passionate about mundane graphics, and she is a presence in every task even if she isn't managing. If Celebrity Apprentice were a high school group project, Star Jones would not be the most popular person in the group, but she would be the person you could rely on most without worrying about the outcome. At the end of the day, that's what makes an administrator. I just don't know if that's what makes a Celebrity Apprentice. If Star Jones does get fired, she will not go gently into that good night. I do expect her to go with more taste than Jennifer Carroll from Top Chef All-Stars though.
#3) Marlee Matlin (28): I always like Marlee so much better when the women claim victory. If it only comes down to efficiency and creativity, few can compete with her, which is why when challenges go well for the girls, there's not a complaint that can be sent Marlee's way. I wish I could say the rest of the competition would be like this week's dominant victory, but a team she's on will lose again. What's going to happen if Nene freaks out on her in the boardroom or Trump asks her straight out who should be fired? Win-after-win can't tell us how she'll respond, and if history is any indication, the result won't be pretty. Get mean, Marlee. Start practicing now, you're going to need to thumb out a few eyes if you want to win.
#4) Nene Leakes (25): Nene has made it this high in the Power Rankings because she's more motivated than certain people with certain creative talents. She's still speaking her mind any chance she gets, and while that has made her a few enemies, it also means she can work on her own and make decisions during challenges. Unlike Star, she doesn't try to micromanage and unlike Marlee, she's unafraid to say what's what. On the other hand, we've seen her play great in contained elements, but she's shown a loss of control in the aftermath of the boardroom. If Nene's wildfire ever fully sparks, the whole prairie is going to light up. I'm a little worried about that happening around LaToya.
#4) Lil Jon (25): This week, Busey asked Lil Jon to cut out scraps of paper. Then he asked him to put black tissue paper in a box. He might as well have asked him to wear a nametag that said "LaToya". If anyone else were the project manager, I would condemn Lil Jon for not demanding more responsibility, but with Busey at the helm, all bets are off. Would you ask that loon to give you tasks when there's a seventy percent chance he won't even remember what he told you to do? I certainly wouldn't. Like the rest of the men, expect a reinvigorated Lil Jon to cash checks and snap necks this week as a Busey-less euphoria prompts him to once again reclaim his swagger.
#6) Meatloaf (22): For such a fragile, non-confrontational seeming guy, Meatloaf has had to step up to bat in the boardroom an uncomfortable number of times this season. It's more likely I'll hear Meatload say, "Someone step in, please" in an episode than I'll hear Trump congratulate the men on an aspect of a task. Meatloaf seems to be congealing like fat on the side of a pan into layers of stress. It was almost enough to land him in the bottom this week, if he hadn't kicked ass as an in-studio chef personality. If Meatloaf caved in at some point, it wouldn't be shocking. But he's remained heated throughout the competition thus far.
#7) Hope Dworaczyk (20): Hope stepped up and played well this week. She played so well she won her task, yet she's still near the bottom of the Cinema Blend Power Rankings' pile. Hope exists in a sort of limbo where she's too middle-of-the road good—her management style is a little too inoffensive and she doesn't bring a lot to the table creatively, excepting her muse-like looks. Hope doesn't have Meatloaf's creative talents, she doesn't take chances like Lil Jon, or speak her mind clearly like Nene. Hell, the world could implode and John Rich could go home next week. Or maybe Hope will manage to pull another rabbit out of her 34C bra next week and shock us all. I've seen stranger things happen.
#8) LaToya Jackson (18): With a win as project manager last week and no noticeable gaffs this week, LaToya's efforts have to be considered a great relief for the rolling women. With only five teammates left, she's no longer relegated to the role of timekeeper, but that hasn't stopped her from constantly complaining about how everyone is out to get her. Maybe they are, but that doesn't mean they're sabotaging challenges to put LaToya in vulnerable positions. Yes, they decided to have her cook a burger instead of a steak. So what? They made that decision for the benefit of the group as a whole. She needs to man up and stop playing the victim before she winds up the next casualty.
Here's a look at how each of the two ballots shook out:

Brown announced the news of the eatery's shuttering in a Friday tweet, and more news soon appeared on Love Cafe's Web site:
Love cafe was wonderful fun, but after 8 great years says adieu Jan 29! Find us at CakeLove Feb & beyond. Much love...— Warren Brown (@cakelovewarren) January 6, 2012
Love Cafe, a 50-seat eatery Warren established with the aim of complementing his CakeLove locations with a larger menu of salads and brunch items — read: Wifi — will close Jan 29.
Brown's cupcakeries continue to operate amid stiff competition.

Everett schools pass new video surveillance rules
The Associated Press
The Everett School Board has approved new video surveillance rules before cameras are installed in all its schools during the next school year.
About 400 to 600 digital security cameras will monitor all public areas in and around the schools, except in places where people expect privacy, such as restrooms and locker rooms, The Herald ( http://is.gd/lZDHQI) reported in Thursday's newspaper.
The new rules also require signs to be posted on school property disclosing the presence of video cameras.
The video images will be viewed at a central location in the data center of the district's new administration building.
A new building repair and technology levy is paying for the system.
Only district employees, school administrators and law enforcement will be able to log in to the system to view digital images. The goal is to allow quick response to specific security or safety issues, school officials said.
The security camera surveillance rules were approved by school board on Tuesday evening on at 2-1 vote. Jeff Russell, school board president, and board member Carol Andrews voted yes, while board member Ed Petersen voted against the proposal. Board members Pam LeSesne and Jessica Olson were absent.
Petersen asked for a delay in approving the guidelines.
The public needs "answers and information," he said. "To go ahead and make a decision before they have answers and information is at risk of communicating that we don't care what they think."
Russell said he felt that the district is "able to communicate that we take the security of our students and staff that much more seriously, particularly after Sandy Hook."
The cameras also will provide more safety for staff who work late, he said.
The district now has 82 older video-monitoring cameras installed in school hallways and other public areas, most in middle school and high schools.
Cameras previously were installed on many of the school district's buses.

The rich may be getting richer, but in reality, we all may be getting poorer.
A new report by credit rating agency Standard & Poor's says the widening gap between the wealthiest and poorest Americans is making the economy more vulnerable to destructive boom-bust cycles. The gap, S&P also notes, is a major reason for the nation's slow economic recovery from the cataclysmic financial meltdown in 2008. Five years ago, S&P estimated the U.S. economy would grow at a 2.8 percent annual pace over the decade. Now it has revised its projection to 2.5 percent, largely due to the wealth gap.
Policymakers, take note. It's one thing for social service agencies, places of worship and politicians to lament the gap in moral terms; it's quite another for S&P to cite the inequality issue as an economic danger sign. After all, S&P's work includes assessing the strength of the economy and health of Wall Street companies. Examining the wealth gap, which is bigger than at any point since the 1920s, S&P says it threatens to discourage the level of trade, investment and hiring that the U.S. economy needs to compete globally.
The weakness of the S&P report is in its lack of short-term solutions. S&P advises against using the tax code to level out the disparity but rather urges greater access to education. It points out that if the average American worker completes just one more year of school, the U.S. economy would grow an additional $525 billion, or 2.4 percent, over the next five years. Those additional dollars would not only rev up the economy but also bump up earning and buying power of more Americans.
Better education is a long-term solution that we'd all like to see, but it's also far easier stated than implemented, given the rising costs of college. The unfortunate reality is that U.S. educational achievement has stalled in recent decades, especially for low-income students, meaning that many Americans are missing out on the higher wages usually tied to advanced degrees.
And while S&P is right that heavy taxes designed to reduce inequality could remove incentives for people to work and cause businesses to hire fewer employees, the federal tax code needs to be simpler, flatter and encourage investment. Such a change would be useful in the short term as well as into the future in stimulating economic growth and narrowing the income chasm.
It's significant that Wall Street recognizes the dangers of our growing U.S. wealth gap. The next step is finding more robust solutions. Otherwise, the gap will widen, boom-bust cycles will worsen, and the economic growth in boom times will only be a fraction of what it could be.

While today's domestic horses rely on humans for many of their survival needs, a recent study by researchers in Germany demonstrated that domestication has not removed all their "wild" abilities. The results of the study, led by Lea Brinkmann, MSc, and colleagues at the University of Göttingen in Germany, indicate horses can still slow their body processes to conserve energy when food is short and temperatures are cold, important survival characteristics for their wild ancestors.
Although research has revealed signs of hypometabolism, or slowing of body processes, in the Przewalski horse, the closest living wild relative of the domesticated horse, previous research suggested that today's livestock had lost that ability because selection pressure was not needed to maintain it.
For the current year-long study, Brinkmann and her team evaluated 10 domestic Shetland ponies accustomed to outdoor housing. The ponies, aged 4 to 16 years, resided in semi-natural outdoor conditions: pasture in summer and paddocks with open stables in winter.
In summer the ponies had access to water and grass and were provided with hay, straw, and a mineral supplement. In winter the researchers split the ponies into one control group and one feed-restricted group to simulate natural seasonal food shortages; the feed-restricted group received first 80%, and then 70%, of recommended energy and protein requirements. Researchers recorded the ponies' ambient temperature, subcutaneous temperature, locomotor activity, lying time, resting heart rate, body mass, and body condition score.
The team found that the feed-restricted ponies exhibited reduced heart rate and subcutaneous temperatures in the winter, which are both signs of hypometabolism. The researchers concluded that domesticated horses, through seasonal fluctuations in their metabolic rate, can still adapt to seasonal environmental conditions.
"Domesticated ponies have retained the ability to adapt to harsh winter conditions like their wild ancestors, so year-round outdoor housing can be an adequate housing system for robust ponies," said Brinkmann. "However, despite the adaption ability, it is essential to provide adequate food and to carefully inspect body conditions when domestic ponies are housed outdoors year-round to counteract possible welfare problems."
The study, "Adaptation strategies to seasonal changes in environmental conditions of a domesticated horse breed, the Shetland pony (Equus ferus caballus)," was published in the April 2012 issue of The Journal of Experimental Biology. The abstract is available online.

Macrium Image file 87 GB, can't browse files
Hello, I have Macrium Free, imaged my entire computer, made the boot CD for the Windows PE....I boot up, do exactly what the sticky thread says . . . . the image is on a brand new Western Digital 1TB external HDD, when I try to image the internal HDD (seagate drive) Macrium simply puts the contents of the WD drive on the Seagate internal HDD, sort of like a simple copy/paste. Of course when I restart it doesn't load Windows because what is on the internal HDD is simply a few folders. I figured oh well do a fresh Windows 7 Ultimate install and grab the files after I mount the Macrium image, but when I do it just takes in a circle, I mount, open the image, which has a folder, with an image....this happens until there is nowhere else to click, but there are never any files to browse, the image files are large, I made 2, one on 2-20-15 (87GB) and one on 2-23-15(174GB)
Any ideas?
Thanks you

Windows 10 64 bit
Did you image both partitions, System Reserved and the "C" drive on the hard drive when you made the backup? If you only imaged the "C" drive that is incorrect and probably why its not working.
See my Win 7 drive, below for an example and also the Macrium screenshot of my Win 7 drive and both partitions selected for imaging.
|My System Specs
|27 Feb 2015
It certainly sounds like you are simply not choosing the correct partitions to be imaged in the Macrium interface. If you are trying to image the internal Seagate, that should have nothing to do with "the contents of the WD drive". I assume the WD is the destination drive---where you tell Macrium to store the image of the Seagate.
If the Seagate has a System Reserved and a C, you need to include both in the image file. Or you could make separate image files of each. But they both have to be imaged if you intend to have a bootable drive when restored.
Regarding size---the image file of the C partition should be about 40 to 50 percent as large as the actual occupied space on the C partition. Is that true in your case?
It's peculiar that your Feb 20 image is 87 GB and your Feb 23 image is 174 GB--twice as large. I'd expect images separated by only 3 days to be quite similar in size unless there were MAJOR changes in the C partition during those 3 days or unless you made an error and they are not in fact images of the same partition(s).
|My System Specs
|27 Feb 2015
I am pretty sure that I imaged all the drives that showed up in Macrium and then saved the image to the external WD drive. My computer went all screwy so I decided to restore the image from the external WD to the internal Seagte and there is my problem. Even if I imaged only the c drive shouldn't I be able to see all my files?
AT this point all I really want is my files from the image file.
As far as size . . . yeah strange it is 2 times as big, which tells me I did something wrong..which I think was after I created the image I mapped the WD external drive, which has the image file in a folder called "Zeek" which is in a folder called "back_up", so I assume Macrium included the mapped drive.
Is there a way I can at least get my files from the mrimg image file?
|My System Specs
|27 Feb 2015
You should be able to double click that mrimg file, which will force it to open in an Explorer interface with a drive letter attached to it. You can then browse the files within the mrimg file and copy them wherever you want.
When you make an image you have to be careful---you can select individual partitions to be included in the image file and exclude other partitions on the same drive. You've got a lot of control and it looks like you made some type of error there.
You can control where that image file is stored. You can make a new storage folder for an image within the Macrium interface after you select the partitions to be imaged. Or you can make that folder before you even open Macrium and then just tell Macrium to put the image file in that folder.
When I make a new image file, I make a new folder for it, using the date as the folder name. For instance D:\images\022715 if I were to make an image today.

OK, so I may have neglected to include the "system reserve", so what in the world is in that 87GB mrimg file? I figure it is all that data from the "c drive", I can live with with a fresh Windows 7 Ultimate install, but why can't I browse the mrimg file? When I get home I will post some screenshots so y'all can see what I mean.
To make matters worse, my other external HDD, that is files only, no image . . . just died, so it looks like mu only hope of getting my docs, pics.music . . . back is that mrimg file.

Do you in fact have Macrium installed on your hard drive?
I don't know why you can't browse that mrimg file if you poke it with the mouse. Possibly it is corrupt? You should see the first picture below. If you then put a checkmark in that checkbox below the "O" in the word "original", you should see something like the second picture. The G drive shown in that second picture is in fact the mounted image file. You can see the folders within it on the right. They can be browsed and copied out to another drive.

My images are stored on an internal.
I don't know what type of goofiness an external USB drive might introduce, so I'd at least try to copy the image file to the internal on your wife's laptop and see if that let's you browse it. Or try to plug the external into some other port on the laptop if available.

From THE AUTOMATIC EARTH
Firstly, I would say that the energy prices that currently seem stubbornly high should fall substantially as the speculative premium evaporates and demand falls on a resumption of the credit crunch. The sucker rally that has spawned all the talk of green shoots is essentially over in my opinion.
The result should be a reversal of a number of trends that depend on the ebb and flow of liquidity – we should see stock markets and commodity prices fall, a significant resurgence in the US dollar and a large contraction of credit. The scale of the reversal should be substantial, as should its effects on energy demand. Demand is not what one wants, but what one is ready, willing and able to pay for, and in a severe credit crunch the capacity to pay for supplies of most things will be severely reduced.
As demand falls, and with it prices, investment in the energy sector is likely to dry up. Many projects will be uneconomic at much lower prices, meaning that the projects which might have cushioned the downslope of Hubbert's curve (and the much steeper net energy curve), are unlikely to be developed. In this way a demand collapse sets the stage for a supply collapse that could place a hard ceiling on any prospect of economic recovery. That is a recipe for extremely high energy prices in the future…
The scale of the problem has been temporarily concealed by a market rally and the shovelling of tens of trillions of dollars of taxpayer's money into a giant black hole of credit destruction. This has done nothing to reignite lending, but the temporary (and entirely irrational) resurgence of confidence has restored a measure of liquidity. As that confidence evaporates with the end of the rally, that liquidity will also disappear.
Deflation is ultimately psychological. Without trust we will see hoarding of the cash which will be very scarce in the absence of the credit that currently comprises the vast majority of the effective money supply. The combination of scarce cash and a very low velocity of money will be toxic.
Money is the lubricant in the economic engine and without enough of it that engine will seize up as it did in the 1930s, when farmers dumped milk they couldn't sell into ditches while others were starving for want of the money to buy food. There was plenty of everything except money, and without money, one cannot connect buyers and sellers…
In my opinion, we stand on the brink of truly tragic circumstances.

Derek Jeter got his 3,000th hit almost two weeks ago and since that day he has gone 6-for-30 with one walk.
In that same period, Brett Gardner has gone 15-for-28 with four walks and seven stolen bases. He now leads the American League in steals and has the 13th best on-base percentage in the league at .372.
When you realize that Gardner started the year so poorly that his on-base percentage was .280 at the end of April, you can only ask yourself one question. Why in the world is he still batting ninth?
For the season, Gardner's OBP is 50 points higher than Jeter's, his batting average is almost 30 points higher and, for whatever it's worth, his slugging percentage is 70 points higher. If you were simply looking at these two guys as players and not by names, there wouldn't be any issue about who was batting at the top of the order.
Jeter's milestone was clearly a stumbling block when it came to shifting the Yankee lineup to best reflect the current state of affairs, but that's out of the way and the only thing that should matter at this point is doing what's best for the Yankees as a team. It's pretty clear that means moving Gardner to the top of the order so that the team's run producers have someone on base as often as possible.
Joe Girardi, who has long been resistant to making any change, seems to be cracking on this issue. He was asked about it again after Wednesday's win and gave a telling, if cryptic, answer.
"I might." Girardi said. "He's going so well, it's something I'll definitely consider. Just wait and see what happens."
This is the best time to make the change. With Alex Rodriguez out of the order, Girardi can simply drop Curtis Granderson, Mark Teixeira and Robinson Cano to make room for Jeter in the two-hole and avoid the hyperinflated uproar that would come with dropping the captain to a more reasonable spot in the lineup.
You'll have to let the other shoe drop at some point, but this gradual easing into a new role should make that easier. If not, that's tough because it has become clear what the best move is for the team.
Back in May when the Jorge Posada batting ninth deal exploded, Girardi said that he had to do what he felt was best for the team. In Gardner, he doesn't just have one of his team's best players, he has one of the better players in all of baseball over the last three months of the season.
That provides him with even more cover for making a move that should have been made a long time ago. Remember what you said, Joe, and put it into action.

Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in India
What are the succession rules for a proprietary firm? Can a father nominate his son to succeed after him & continue the firm as proprietor?
2 Answers from Attorneys
proprietory concern will devolve up on his legal on death , even nominee is made he is accountable to legal heirs , nominee may be able to continue the business but not as if his own but with accountability to legal heirs. However by executing a will , it can be made infavour of person of his choice excluding any legal heirs from succession
Dear Sir / Madam,
If the owner of a sole proprietorship dies, then the business also ceases to operate, because a sole proprietorship is not considered to be separate from the individual owner. But during the father's lifetime, the son can start a new sole proprietory concern and takeover the assets and liabilities of the father's proprietory concern.

Allen Legislation Would Study Feasibility of Tax Free Trusts for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities
Please Share:
Legislation approved today by the Senate Health, Human Services, and Senior Citizens Committee would commission a study on the feasibility of allowing family members and caregivers of persons with developmental disabilities to establish tax-free trusts for the long term care needs of those individuals.
S-1034 is sponsored by Senator Diane Allen and explores the possibility of allowing pre-state tax contributions to special needs care and placement trusts designed to supplement Medicaid benefits received by persons with disabilities. Current law allows the establishment of such accounts, but does not allow for pre-tax contributions.
"Caring for a loved one with developmental disabilities is an emotionally and financially stressful undertaking," said Allen (R- Burlington). "That stress is rooted not only in the immediate needs of the individual, but in trying to ensure that person is cared for into the future. This study will examine whether it is feasible for the state to establish health savings account style trusts funded with tax free contributions by family members or other caregivers and guardians to provide for these individuals' long term care needs."
The bill also requires the study to consult with advocates for the disability community to determine how best to promote and disseminate information regarding these trusts. The study would be directed by the Division of Developmental Disabilities within the state Department of Human Services.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Central Sierra Environmental Resource Center, Twain Harte, CA, USA
As a Kindergarten teacher and coordinator for much of the "green activity" on campus, I was pleased to have the Central Sierra Environmental Resource Center take an active role in helping our children, grades Pre-K through 5th grade, learn about our foothill environment as well as the high Sierras. They were never "preachy" but helped the students understand stewardship to nature--our need for trees, other flora and wildlife and our duty to protect them and our earth. Their presentations were grade level appropriate and were welcomed by students and teachers alike. I've also worked as a volunteer for CSERC and had the pleasure of laboring to stop erosion by planting trees along creek sides, pulling invasive weeds up and down canyons, helping with fence construction in a fen area, helping set up a fence-building day for a local wildlife reserve that nurses young creatures back to health and releases them to the wild. I often read in our local newspaper the input from Central Sierra Environmental Resource Center regarding environmental impact studies for local development, review of every proposed logging project on private and public lands of the region, water issues, and other community planning.

This is the extended version of our article, Hands-on With Titanfall, as featured on our home page.
It was a predictably warm Monday morning in Downtown Los Angeles when I walked into Milk Studios, a tucked away treasure not too far from Hollywood Boulevard and the Walk of Fame. I was greeted at the door by a man in a suit, who directed me to a sequestered desk, replete with name badges and a long sign in roster. After picking up my name tag and fumbling with my gear, I walked through the separate black curtains. Like Alice through the Looking Glass, I was in a new world - big screen LCD screens and Xbox Ones lined the walls and clustered in the middle of the room, each emblazoned with the Titanfall logo in glorious high-def.
We started the play test predictably with a tutorial level. Though the level was wrapped in a faux virtual reality training module, the thing that fascinated me about it was the pure fluidity of the controls; while the art of free-running known as parkour has been done before in various other titles, it has almost always been done either with little direct interaction from the player or with too many fiddly inputs and key combinations, almost always resulting in wonky and uncoordinated movements that long relegated the concept to the land of gimmickry. This isn't so with Titanfall - the controls are ridiculously tight and fluid, with each jump and twist feeling more visceral than ever before. It feels as if your character is an extension of you, moving smooth enough to grant fine control of motion and movement; running along walls, double jumping, and chaining air jumps with wall run acrobatics became almost second nature by the time I was done with the level. During one of my breaks, I joined in a conversation with Abbie Heppe, the Respawn Community Manager who I would later interview, and she put it best - "People need to get used to it I think, but once they get it, they love it. People say they try doing it in other games after they do it here!"
Once the tutorial was over, the real meat of the game began. Titanfall currently has three confirmed game modes, and between them - Last Titan Standing, Hardpoint, and Attrition - the game is broad and varied in focus, feel, and gameplay. As I joined a game of Hardpoint, a futuristic variant on Capture the Flag, I could feel the hectic gameplay luring me into the fog of war. I started reacting reflexively, taking defensive measures before threats even came onto the field, and supporting teammates in ways I would never have considered without having the parkour abilities of a pilot. After defending a Hardpoint from capture, I darted into the street, and encountered probably my first breathtaking moment in a first person shooter ever - a Titan stood before me, firing a salvo of rockets towards a friendly behind me, reloading his chain gun as he dashed quickly to the left. I managed to avoid the Titan's step, narrowly avoiding being crushed to death, only to have my pilot killed by a distant sniper, picking me off of from a rooftop several buildings over. Unlike most FPS deaths, I found I wasn't mad - I was impressed. Titanfall is a game that demands innovative strategy to survive; in other titles, circle strafing, rushing, and camping are viable methods of warfare, but in Titanfall, each Pilot and Titan has a variety of weapons that can obliterate any position from any distance, ranging from grenade lobbing rifles to high-rate miniguns. I found myself thinking less about how to rush from Point A to Point B, and more about how to simply survive from Point A to Point B.
Hardpoint ended dramatically for my team. Our assured victory started its slow descent into defeat about three quarters through the match, when our best Titan pilot was caught in a pincer attack between two enemy Titans. Though his nuclear meltdown meant at least one of the enemy Titans was damaged beyond repair, the other Titan managed to keep ground control relatively secure, and we were slowly pushed pack to point Bravo, which we lost during a surge of ground activity. As the game ended, we were urged to get to the dropship in the distance, and as a large group, we started to sprint towards our salvation. As we neared the dropship, a Titan dashed from behind a building, unleashing his chain gun into the crowd, dropping at least two of my allies, and a multitude of AI controlled grunts. I barely had enough time to look at my fallen comrades before I was shot myself, forcing me to watch in horror as three enemy Titans launched an all-out offensive on our drop ship, stopping any who had survived the onslaught from reaching it. It was only as the dropship exploded and the last salvos emptied that I realized we had evacuated on top of an apartment building; for the first time, the scope of the city hit me, and I realized just how large this world was.
"The world of Titanfall is one that's at the edges of the universe, where people journey to build lives, and it's more like getting to the west after traversing the Oregon Trail, but in space." Heppe explained the world to me, and it suddenly made sense why it felt so massive. "We want people to see Titanfall and say, 'this is a bed, this a home'; we want it to be something that is very familiar, but at the same time, you're looking around and saying 'Oh my God, we're in space!'." The aim is certainly familiar - games like Battlefield and Rogue Squadron have long tried to make the world feel truly massive and intricate, to various rates of success. Titanfall has treated this backdrop almost as a fine art, sculpting each element with precision and allowing it to flow organically into the game. There were many times where I caught myself becoming distracted by where the firefight was as opposed to the actual fight, and during my downtime between encounters, I found myself exploring the level and all the rich little details that come along with it.
As Hardpoint ended, Attrition began. The poster child of all FPS shooters, Attrition is essentially death match, but without all the trappings of the normal death match game mode. There are no penalties to your Titan countdown: if you have a Titan to call on, you can drop it now, during the next opportune chance, or as the mode of entry on your next life. Whereas other games push death match as a mode of absolute bloodshed and chaos, Titanfall seems to be the more regal, refined approach to the concept. While the mode is certainly a blood bath, success requires skill, not luck; grenades have a small radial splash damage range, and guns have very little aim drift, meaning that you have to be in control of your fire and strategy, or you'll simply get mowed down. It's not simply enough to have the largest weapon, either; during my match in Attrition, I discovered how to mount enemy Titans, an event that results in your tearing off protective plates and shooting into the brains of the Titan itself, either resulting in total TItan meltdown or your death by an angry and annoyed Pilot. Attrition is what it says on the tin - a war of troop loss. And troop loss there is. Your friendly AIs fall by the dozens, and you can expect Titan fire to engulf your entire area of operations; but do not think this replaces skill or talent, or you might just find yourself on the armored soles of an enemy Titan.
Last Titan Standing might be the standout mode of Titanfall. As the game started, I found my entire team were outfitted in the standard Titan mech, replete with chaotic and destructive weapons aplenty. It was only during this last game mode that it struck me; Parkour, though fluid and fun, was only half of why Titanfall was so fluid and fun. In any first-person shooter, weaponry is of prime importance, and Titanfall's weapons are fun, varied, and powerful. The chain gun feels like a chain gun, and I found myself experiencing a rush at the pure firepower of the rocket salvo. The Smart Pistol feels like it is what it is - a powerful weapon that requires skill and precision to use it effectively. The guns in Titanfall feel like actual firearms, with kickback, weight, and real-world behavior. More so than any title in recent memory, the firefights in Titanfall feel like actual firefights, in both hectic mayhem and as an analogue of the real world. When I encountered two enemy Titans in Last Titan Standing, I proceeded to force them to circle around a building, separating their firepower. When I encountered the first, I unloaded my entire barrage against them, and found myself losing sight of the target due to gun smoke and rocket trails. I could feel the kickback of the weapons as I unloaded into the hull of the enemy Titan, but when I was knocked from the side by the second enemy who I had lost visuals on, I was truthfully frightened; for the first time in recent memory, a game had scared me not by jump scares or loud noises, but by making me feel so much a part of the game that I literally had a fight-or-flight reflex. I had become my Pilot due in part to the realness of the environment and weaponry, and that is impressive in and of itself.
All of this is intentional, of course: nothing in Titanfall works because elements came together randomly or in unexpected ways. It all works because it was designed to, because it was planned and executed with the entirety of the game in mind. When asked if these designs, choices, and structures in gameplay were as intentional as I suspected they were, Heppe confirmed my suspicions. "We try to explain to people the reason why we do things, and the reason things are the way they are; a lot of people who are asking for things haven't played the game, so us doing the beta and getting the game out there for people to play and figure these things out for themselves is super important." It's an important distinction to be made for Titanfall; the game is meticulous in design and well thought-out, something that is refreshing in such a title. One of the many things I told Heppe during our conversations was that the game feels like it was designed by fans - it seems like every member of the Titanfall team is truly a fan of the game they are making, not just employees of a company that is happening to make a game. They truly enjoy what they are doing, and that comes through in the (near) finished product. That's not to say the game is entirely uni-directional or single-faceted; the game is as varied as the gameplay, and in a funny turn, this variation was due to the level of attention dealt by the developers. "Originally, there was this work on...power armor and stuff that was not really titans, so there is definitely a lot of those things [that] came along as the game was developing towards a Titan-based game...there were a lot of concepts early on." Heppe has of course spoken on other occasions of these concepts and plans, mentioning the mecha anime and manga influences on Joel Emslie from Masamune Shirow, famed artist best known for his work with Ghost in the Shell. These influences are obvious in the designs of the Pilots and the Titans, but it is clear that the art direction, like the game mechanics, is varied and complex, resulting in the beautiful masterpiece that is Titanfall.
The interaction is not just one-sided, though; Heppe made it clear that the community had a significant role in development as well. "We are always listening to [the community]. It's very rare that somebody is saying something about Titanfall on the internet, on twitter, on everything, and we're not aware of it." Heppe smiles, obviously excited. "For us, we're building this foundation that is Titanfall, so there's a lot of things that we found interesting, or we incorporated, or added later, but this is the game we're making." Heppe made it clear, however, that the game had not fallen into the "vocal minority" trappings as so many other crowd-influenced games have. "We hear all of that stuff, and some of it is stuff for a future date, and some of it is stuff that would horribly unbalance the game if we did it. I think you'll remember when we were clarifying, 'yeah, this is a 6v6 game'; it's not that we haven't tested it 10v10 or higher numbers, it's that the game wasn't fun when we did that, and we need to make decisions that make it a fun game for everyone playing it." It's a strategy that is clearly effective; every single person I talked to at the event was fascinated by the title, and as we played, we found ourselves rooting for the opposing team's interesting, unique, or skillful kills, taking joy in the exciting and fast-paced world that is Titanfall.
Of course, this experience is what makes a first-person shooter a success, and support for competitive play has been heavily balanced with the regular play experience. "We've tried to build a foundation for a fun game that is going to be awesome to play," Heppe continues, "We're not going to be shipping with all the same features to support [competitive play] that games that have been around for however many iterations, almost a decade I think for some of them, have, but I know that there's so much interest from the eSports community competitively and we're definitely interested in what they have to say. We can't build the whole game for them; we have to build an awesome game and hope that they enjoy that and are interested in picking it up and playing it, and carrying on Titanfall for the next few months or years. I think at launch it's going to be interesting to hear their feedback." That feedback is of prime importance to Titanfall's success in certain parts of the world. Case in point, there was a lot of legitimate fears amongst Australian gamers that the lack of local Azure servers, the servers that will be hosting online games, would result in an unplayable hundreds-large millisecond ping. Heppe assuages some of those fears, stating "Microsoft is building Azure servers in Australia...and they'll be going online later this year. In the meantime, we have been testing the game in Australia to make sure they won't get super ridiculous milliseconds lag. [...] Obviously we don't want anyone to have a bad experience playing Titanfall, and I'm really excited that Microsoft is building data centers to support them; I know that there's a huge community of Australian gamers, and I know we had said at E3 last year that we thought they'd be there by now - they're not, but we're doing everything we can to make sure they get a good experience too."
It's a common sentiment amongst EA and Respawn; the community is incredibly important, and they want the experience itself to be fun before anything else. In an age of rampant micro-transactions and derivative gameplay, Respawn seems entirely committed to the end-user experience, and this definitely comes across in Titanfall. Every single feature is so finely tuned, so perfectly balanced, that it is definitely an experience most players will want to continue for years to come. While it is far too early to be talking about sequels and DLC, I can say this - from what I've seen here, Titanfall is likely to become a franchise, and a popular one at that.
And as for the most common query for Respawn? "We get asked the number [of maps] all the time, and realistically, we want players to just go in and discover a lot of things about Titanfall for themselves, and the number of maps is one of those things. There are a lot, and they are very varied, even compared to what we're showing you today. Fractured has a lot of open spaces, and Angel City has a lot more vertical flanking and jumping off of buildings and sort of weaving in and out of these passageways. There are maps that are higher, there are maps that are totally different." Heppe laughs and smiles. "We haven't even shown one of my favorite ones yet!"

A controversial candidate for the safe Labor seat of Batman, Senator
Senator Feeney, a member of the Right faction, is favoured to succeed the retiring
"I think we need a breadth of talent and experience and I am part of that puzzle," he said.
"I have a first class track record in building and developing Labor ideas and weaponising them against the Liberal Party."
He pointed to his leading roles on the successful 2002 Victorian and the 2006 South Australian campaigns. He denied he was being parachuted into the seat despite enjoying the backing of Prime Minister
"Where that argument might have had some standing was if this was being dictated by the national executive or the state executive; the community will choose it is as simple as that," he said.
His opponent,
She said she would promote the "best" of Labor traditions and seek to be part of a "principle-based Labor Party".
"It is a party that has in some parts lost sight of its core values. I do not think the Labor government has effectively challenged the rhetoric around asylum seekers that was allowed to develop under the Howard government."
She had lived in the area for 15 years and felt the Labor members in Batman had a strong desire to see a local candidate.
Ms Thomas confirmed she had dropped her membership for some time saying she felt she could not be a member of a political party while serving as a senior public servant. She said she renewed her membership as soon as she left that role.
However she also admitted she was still a member of the party's central branch as she had not yet made it to a local branch meeting.
Both Ms Thomas and Senator Feeney have required special permission from the party's central administrative committee to qualify for the preselection ballot.
Senator Feeney denied that he was being delivered the seat courtesy of local factional bosses and their blocs of votes saying he was merely seeking support from the leaders in the electorate.
"Of course I'm trying to persuade them to support me, that is grassroots politics isn't it?" he said.
Senator Feeney bridled at his oft-used moniker of "factional power broker".
"These terms are hackneyed and overused. So many people are now described as powerbrokers it's a meaningless term," he said.
The Labor Party's powerful administrative committee was due to meet on Friday night and expected to agree to an abbreviated campaign allowing a two-day vote probably starting on July 1.
Party sources suggest the right, which is backing Senator Feeney, has the numbers strongly lined up in the seat. A good marker of the relative factional strengths is the fact that Batman sends 25 delegates to the state conference.
Predicting how those delegates would split in a poll of the membership is slightly fraught as no such election has taken place since 2002.
Instead under an arrangement agreed by the factions the two main leaders in the area, state MPs Robin Scott and Nazih Elasmar, counted 13 delegates as their supporters.
Then there are several others closely aligned to them. If those numbers translate to the preselection then the right will win easily.
Some note that the fact party members in Batman have not been approached to vote in 11 years shows how much the locals have been taken for granted.
There is also growing evidence that the stoush is rallying together the long-split right wing of the Labor party together against the Left.
If that were the case the preselection could produce a substantial shift in power in the Victorian Labor Party.
A deal was struck several years ago between the dominant portion of the right faction, led by federal MPs Bill Shorten and Stephen Conroy , and the party's left to avoid bloody battle s over seats.
Under that deal formerly powerful blocs including the Shop, Distributive and Allied Employees Union were marginalised.
The election of Senator Feeney in Batman would represent a more united approach by the right in the face of strong resistance from the left.

Ligue 1: Djamel Bakar eager to make big impact at Montpellier
Striker Djamel Bakar is ready to make an impact at Montpellier after the club confirmed he will sign a four-year deal.
Last Updated: 30/05/13 1:21pm
Bakar, 24, who was out of contract at relegated Nancy, hopes to build on his eye-catching performances after scoring five times in 35 Ligue 1 appearances last season.
"There were other top-flight teams who were interested, but Montpellier had a number of arguments," Bakar told ligue1.com.
"They're a club set up to grow, to play at the top end of the table, with very passionate people behind them.
"The fact they had been following me from the first half of the season also influenced my choice. That shows that they really count on me. To my mind, it's the right club for me to improve."

Marjorie Dean Parsons
Marjorie Dean Parsons, 87, New London, died Friday, July 4, 2014, at the New London Nursing and Rehab Center.
Funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m., Tuesday, July 8, at Elliott Chapel, New London. The Rev. David Mixon will officiate. Burial will be in Burge Cemetery. Visitation will begin after noon on Monday, July 7 at the Chapel and the family will receive friends from 6 to 8 p.m. Memorials may be made to the New London Fire and Rescue or the New London Community School Music Department.
She was born in Middletown on Dec. 6, 1926, and was the daughter of Arthur and Grace Elvinetta Connop Conard. On Dec. 31, 1944, she married Clayton Walter Parsons in Mt. Union. He preceded her in death. She was a 1944 graduate of New London High School and a former member of the Lowell Baptist Church.
She was a homemaker and a dairy farmer's wife. She was a member of the Lowell Get Together Club. She enjoyed cooking, baking cookies for friends and family. She loved music and played for many weddings and funerals and also enjoyed going to the care center and church to play the piano and sing.
She is survived by her daughters, Paula (Ted) Broeker-Mohrfeld of Mt. Pleasant, Sharon Phillips of New London, Debby (Daryl) Gipple of New London, Brenda (Dave) Anderson of St. Ansgar, and Jo (Dave) Hollingsworth of New London; 12 grandchildren; 21 great-grandchildren; and four great-great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; sisters, Betty Violon and Mildred Crocker; and brother, Arthur Clayton "Pete" Conard.
