How about that E3?

Soooooo is this where we can post some of our own thoughts?
I'll start with Nintendo:
New Super Mario Bros. Wii looks pretty fun. Four Player platforming shennanigans can be really fun. LBP did the same thing, although I always felt like the mechanics of jumping and movement in that game never felt right. Or maybe it's just that they simply didn't move like how I'd expect them to, ie. like Mario. I'm sure that Nintendo can put a really fresh and polished spin on it. Key word polished. I'm also expecting some cool competitive modes in this new version, since the DS game was really great with that.
A great way to start a conference.
The middle bits of the Nintendo bit were kind of lacking, my eyes glazed over with Wii Vitality, which is yet another peripheral, and seemingly another step away from what we would typically call "games" or even "fun".
Regarding Motion +, I'd have to say I'm a little nonplussed about it. Simply because I though the wiimote was already capable of doing all of this stuff already.
It seems to me that if you really want so called "hardcore" experiences, that the DS is the place to go. We quickly caught a glimpse of a GTA style game, which was shocking to see running on DS hardware, and also a handful of RPGS, which is like kryptonite to my productivity when it comes to handhelds. I simply can't put them down! So I'm really excited about the DS. I don't plan on upgrading to the DSI until we start seeing something like an RPG leverage it's unique abilities. Pokemon heart gold/soul silver anyone?
Thankfully the Team Ninja/Nintendo announcement really brought things home in a big way. I'm not a huge fan of Metroid in either it's 2D or it's FPS incarnations, but I totally appreciate the sentiment. To be honest I'm not even all that into Team Ninja and their efforts. Having said all that I still can't help but be excited for this. Watching the video, I'm a little baffled as to what type of game this really is. At times it seems to be 1st person, and in other shots we get glimpses of side scrolling, and even 3rd person. Could it be possible that this game does it all? The mind boggles!
This was the perfect response to all the fans who felt like Nintendo has forgotten their true supporters.
As for Galaxy 2, I'm excited, although I should say there is a bit of…how to say…conflicted?
Galaxy is one of the highest rated games on Metacritic/Gamerankings (I think just shy of Ocarina), and no doubt that this new game will likely earn just as much praise. So more Mario fun is definitely a plus. As I mentioned above, Nintendo just really knows how to polish a game so that it's simply a joy to interact and play with. It's pretty much impossible for this game to be anything short of fantastic.
I do feel that since the original was so innovative, I was hoping a sequel would be equally as groundbreaking. It also strikes me that Galaxy 2 seemed like more of an expansion pack DLC rather than a new and fresh experience. But I dunno, it's early days for it so we haven't really seen anything of it just yet.
Anyway that's my little rant about Nintendo. Overall I thought it was ok, although it somehow lacked the thrills of the other two.
In all three cases, I think the true gold will be found on the show floor as news starts coming in about the smaller games that may not have been mentioned in the conference. There might be some hidden gems among them. For now, I'm marking Nintendo with a penciled in B dependent on what we see over the next few gems.

Awesome thoughts, Rey-O! I've been so busy keeping up with events and articles that I've not had the chance to dig into the forum till today. Adam and I recorded a podcast last night which I hope to have available today for download, barring any unforeseen delay in production. Seems this E3 had a little something for everyone, which is great.

Hey thanks Shaun, I'm going to give that podcast a listen!
For the sake of completion, I'll briefly go over I think Microsoft and Sony faired at E3.
Lets get Project Natal out of the way first. I think what we saw was promising, especially Milo. I do have to say that there was a bit of a disconnect between what we saw presented live and what we saw on video. Milo was really advanced, and yet the live "painting" demo was laughable. Ultimately we can't really take too much from what we saw since it's so early in development. Same goes for PS3 motion camera.
In terms of entertainment, they won hands down. Bringing in huge celebrities is a great way of getting attention, and in the case of Tony Hawk and Steven Spielberg, they genuinely sounded interested in their presentation. As for The Beetles and the Beetles ladies, not so much, but you can't really rip in The Beetles, so I'll leave it at that. Microsoft really kicked off E3 with a bang.
Out of all the games they showed, Alan Wake and Splinter Cell Conviction really grabbed my attention. Alan Wake for it's use of light/shadow as a gameplay mechanic and atmosphere, Splinter Cell for it's flashy way of displaying mission objectives and memories.
I felt like Sony had a huge uphill battle if they wanted to really impress and wow over the fans. Overall I'd have to say mission complete.
As far as their own motion controlled stuff - it looked pretty neat but it was in an even more experimental stage than Microsoft's, so again there really isn't much to say except "promising". I believe they had the EyePet on the show floor though, and from what I've seen it looks like fun, despite being something not in my age bracket.
With all of these gaming shows, my eyes usually glaze over whenever FPS' are shown, so I was glad to see that Sony kept that down to a minimum. MAG looks like fun for shooter fans, although it did seem a bit overly complex (check out all the HUD info).
The two big standouts for me were Uncharted 2 and The Last Guardian. Uncharted 2 looks like a graphical powerhouse, and if the original game is any indicator, it's all backed up by rock solid gameplay. The Last Guardian, I could talk for days about how much Ico and SOTC meant to me, but lets just say, I'm just really...really excited.
I know I'm missing out lots of stuff (Modern Warfare, Tony Hawk's Ride, FFXIV) but I'm just sticking to the few things that really stood out to me. I think that both Microsoft and Sony both had a good show, and I'm just going to call both a tie at B+. It all comes down to personal tastes.
As far as who really won E3? That's such a tough call, and I'm going to throw a curveball and say it was specifically the Nintendo DS. Mostly because of Scriblenauts, which, from the sound of it, doesn't even sound possible on
piece of hardware, let alone the DS. It's also the one place to play a metric ton of RPG's coming out in the next few months, so yay to that. Golden Sun DS, Mario and Luigi, and heck even Dragon Quest IX is on the horizon. I love my DS!

I'm amazed at how much your points reflect the ones Adam and I were talking about. Natal does look good but I admit everything seemed very rehearsed. I'm looking forward to getting some hands-on time with it at some point, and I do expect it to work - but it really seems like it does something impossible.
Sony's stuff looks interesting. Definitely more of a prototype at this point. They mentioned analogue triggers, which is something that really should have been on the Wii Remote.
Some E3 thoughts I didn't mention in the podcast:
- It's amazing to see how petty some of the company spokespeople can get in their presentations with their snide passive-aggressive attacks at other companies. Last I checked, they weren't school kids - so why are they acting that way?
- Every company seemed to be heading in the same direction in terms of philosophy and market targets. This leads me to the One Console future. Three consoles/generation just to play all the great games available is too much for both entertainment system real estate and our wallets.

Your right about the juvenile comments PR/dev's sometimes sling at one another. It certainly doesn't paint the industry and it's appreciators in a good light. I have to admit I do find it pretty entertaining though, in a supermarket tabloid 'he said/she said' sort of way.
The one console future, man, will be ever see it? Not any time soon, I suspect. Mostly because it'd require the very same people (you know, the ones who make catty remarks towards one another) to play nice.
As far as getting around to playing all the cool games we've heard about, I'm pretty sure I'll get around to mostly all of them in the fullness of time. I only have one console from this generation (the PS3, and if you count the DS) but eventually, I'll fill out the rest of my dance card - maybe not this year or even the next. So I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm really really patient!

I think it's safe to say the majority of us are from a Generation that knows nothing except constant console war. We've pledged our allegiances to one side or another time and time again! My mind reels at the thought of a one console future and whether i'll live to see it :P

I think there will be peace on Earth before a one-console world.

POMONA -- Police shot and killed a woman who allegedly brandished a gun at them late Saturday in Pomona, where four homicides have been reported in the past week and a half, officials said.
Sonia Angelita Castaneda-Montoya, 28, of Pomona died at the scene of the shooting, Los Angeles County Department of Coroner Lt. Cheryl MacWillie said.
No officers were injured in the incident, which took place about 9:45 p.m. in a motel parking lot in the 900 block of West Holt Avenue, officials said.
"Members of a multi-jurisdictional gang task force were driving through the parking lot of the location where they were confronted by a female suspect," Los Angeles County sheriff's officials said in a written statement."The female suspect brandished a handgun, resulting in an officer-involved shooting."
A handgun was recovered, officials said.
Sheriff's officials, who are assisting Pomona police in the investigation, did not say Sunday what agencies took part in the multi-agency task force, or what agency or agencies were involved in the shooting.
Pomona police deferred questions to the sheriff's department. Handling detectives could not be reached for comment.
No further information was released.
A search of Los Angeles County Superior Court records shows Castadena-Montoya was convicted of robbery in June of 2004 in Pomona Superior Court. A charge of making criminal threats filed against her was dismissed.
Saturday night's shooting involving the gang
Four men died in five separate shootings between March 7 through 12, police said.
The first in the series of killings claimed the life of a 24-year-old man who was killed by a shooter inside a passing car as he walked with a child and two strollers on 9th Street in the middle of the afternoon.
Police have reported no arrests in any of the killings.

Chenault Toughens Legislation to Prevent Federal Gun Law EnforcementNew bill changed to make it a felony for a fed to enforce gun lawsANCHORAGE - House Speaker Mike Chenault is doubling down on his bill to prevent federal officials from enforcing gun restrictions in Alaska. Although some people believe the bill is in violation of the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution, Chenault presented an even tougher version to the House Judiciary Committee Friday. Now not only would it allow for the arrest of federal officers trying enforcing gun laws, it provides that they would be charged with a felony. "The original bill had a Class B misdemeanor," Chenault aide Tom Wright told the committee. "We heard from many, many people throughout this state that they'd like to have it a Class C felony. So that's why we included it in here." The committee did not vote on Chenault's bill. But it did pass a resolution by Representative Charisse Millett calling on president Obama and Congress to back off on proposals to restrict gun ownership. You have indicated this comment should be removed.said on Thursday, Feb 14 at 5:58 PM Wait...tell me more about the drones. Are they necessary to the security of a Free State? Ice Inappropriate?

The Edge of Abstraction 25.05 - 29.06 - Shila Khatami, Dirk Krecker, Roman Lika, David Ostrowski, Bas dan den Hurk opening Saturday 25 May, 14 - 19h. In his 1995 video Painter, Paul McCarthy is dressed as a disturbing, overblown absurdist cliché of an artist and is filmed in a cheap studio. He smears paint on a canvas with an oversized brush, mumbling "God" and blowing raspberries. He rubs a giant paint-tube against a canvas with his body like a sexed-up cat against a pole. The result is an abstract painting – the most ridiculous form of artwork McCarthy could think to parody. Yet over ten years later something has happened. Abstract painting feels fresh again. Contemporary abstract painting is different to previous incarnations for a few reasons. It did not emerge in opposition to representational painting. It's not like we are living in times where painted images of the world are dominant. The grand history of paint is also not the point. It's almost 100 years since Kazimir Malevich painted "Black Square", and its utopian aspects feel old-fashioned. Gone is the enticing communist idea that anti-representation meant anti-establishment. The modernist abstract paintings of the 1930s and 40s, the minimalism of the 1960s and 1970s, even the neo-abstraction of the 1980s seem long past. And yet regular visitors to exhibitions or art fairs today can't help but notice the prominence of abstract artworks on the walls. The Edge Of Abstraction highlights a real sense of cross-media experimentation around contemporary abstract art. The main thing this new generation of artists is using to rethink abstraction is an emphasis on Process with a capital P. The journey appears to be the focus far more than the results these days. There is a fascination with materials that borders on fetishism. How the work is made is arguably the whole point.

Saratoga Springs residents say elimination of Saturday mail service is no surprise
SARATOGA SPRINGS — Saturday mail delivery is about to follow many other things into extinction in the rapidly growing digital age of social media and the Internet.
The U.S. Postal Service announced Wednesday that Saturday home delivery will be eliminated beginning in August, a move that's expected to save $2 billion and eliminate 35,000 jobs.
Local residents and business people say the change comes as no surprise.
"I'm fine with it. I can get bills a day later," said Anne Bishop, a Realtor with Prudential Manor Homes in Saratoga Springs. "Our business can survive it. We're open Saturdays on a limited basis anyway. It's a little inconvenience for everyone, but not something we can't adjust to."
Electronic communication has claimed many victims in the past decade, from large metropolitan newspapers to books replaced by Kindles to booksellers such as Borders.
"It's sad," said Janice DeMarco, co-owner of Lyrical Ballad, an antiquarian bookstore on Phila Street in Saratoga Springs. "I treasure post offices because I grew up with them. Our way of life is changing so drastically because of the Internet. I can't say I like it, but I understand what the post office is doing financially."
She said that most people who contact her business do so by Facebook, email or through its website.
Plans call for keeping post offices open on Saturday and mail will still be delivered to postal boxes. Package delivery, which has increased 14 percent since 2010, will also continue.
But people who want friends and relatives to get birthday cards on time will have to send them a bit earlier. Most people will just get more mail on Monday.
Joni Collura of Saratoga Springs said it's unfair for the Postal Service to eliminate Saturdays after just having raised the price of first-class stamps from 45 cents to 46 cents. Continued...
"It's not right," she said. "It's a little ironic that they're increasing the amount of a stamp, yet they're not going to have the service they've had for many, many years."
Saratoga Springs resident Jen Horn said, "I'm not surprised. I think soon they'll be doing even fewer days per week."
"It makes no difference," said Jim Oudekerk of Saratoga Springs. "I don't rely on anything coming in the mail on Saturday. Business is Monday to Friday. It is what it is."
Bill Sheeley has a postal box at the downtown post office on Broadway.
"It's not a big deal," he said of the change. "Most of my mail comes here. I'd like to see them keep the post office open."
Adirondack Trust Co. President, CEO and Chairman Charles Wait said, "I'm sure there are some people who rely on Saturday delivery. As a business person, I don't think it matters particularly because so much mail is electronic now."
The Postal Service has reduced its work force by 193,000 people since 2006 without imposing layoffs, spokeswoman Maureen Marion said. Many reductions have been through attrition and retirements, and it's hoped that layoffs can be avoided this time as well, she said.
Reductions will be across the board, including supervisors, but the greatest impact will be with city letter carriers. Rural carriers have different types of contracts and staffing arrangements, Marion said.
The change officially takes effect Monday, Aug. 5, although staff reduction planning will begin "almost immediately," she said.
Saratoga Springs Post Office has nearly three dozen mail routes. Continued...
"Really, it's been a long time coming," said Randy Reynolds, a postal clerk. "Most people have just been waiting for it to happen."

i've tried to print a couple of articles but every time i hit print nothing comes through on the printer as far as the story part of it. any suggestions? i'm sending this from firstname.lastname@example.com. thanks for any help you may have.
9:07 pm on Sunday, October 28, 2012
I sure hope they open something out here towards Trexlertown or surrounding area. I am thankfully on the second floor, and I always have emergency supplies, however some people either do not have the money or the transportation to get the items they will need. Needless to say if they do need help, Bethlehem is a bit far for people to go. NOTE: if you know me personally, you have my phone number, call me if you need help.
11:23 pm on Sunday, October 28, 2012

20 of the worst Oscar winners in history
Tom Huddleston sorts the least deserving Academy Award winners
It's Oscar season once again – and while Academy members scratch their heads trying to decide which of this year's crop of worthy titles deserves to take home the big prize, we trawl the archives to uncover the worst Oscar offences of all time. From the film that beat 'Citizen Kane' to Best Picture to the time 'Harry and the Hendersons' walked away with a handful of gold, here are all the Academy's biggest blunders in one handy list.
This is by no means a definitive rundown of all of Oscar's shoddy decisions – we didn't even have room to mention Celine Dion or 'Chicago' – so if you really, really hate 'Titanic' or really, really love 'Forrest Gump', tell us about it in the comments box below.
16. 'A Beautiful Mind' (2002)
Best Picture, 74th Academy Awards, 2002
By the late '90s, it seemed the Academy had decided to avert any chance of controversy by doling out awards to the blandest, most inoffensive movie they could find (see also: 'Shakespeare in Love', 'Titanic', 'Chicago'). The worst offender in this category has to be Ron Howard's entirely forgettable maths 'n' madness biopic, a disease-of-the-week TV movie which somehow escaped into the multiplex.
It could've been: 'The Fellowship of the Ring', 'Gosford Park', 'Mulholland Dr' (not nominated).

Just came across this link to a radio show Welles narrated in 1956 by Philip Wylie called Tomorrow! Interesting in that it came only three years after the George Pal produced "When Worlds Collide" also by Philip Wylie.
Needless to say, Welles narration towards the end of this show, describing the horrors of nuclear Armageddon is quite stunning.
Original broadcast date: October 17, 1956
Based on a novel by Philip Wylie
New York: Rinehart, 1954

OW: There it was! ...The Atom is on the way!
It came slanting down towards him. The long, slim, steely, monstrous dart! Cannonading down the sky to TARGET ZERO!
There it is.
LIGHT! Unimaginable blaze filling the sky! Shadows, fearsome, strident, hellish, LIGHT! Universes exploded. Fire stars and collisions, blinding super solar light!
Corley Borden vanished. A gas, incandescence, with a universal incandescent that melted the skyscrapers. Dissolved their steel bones, plummeted their stone carcasses to the buckling streets...
Beyond the land was in convulsion. Surging with heat and twisted avalanches of glass. At zero, was zero... nothing!

The Namibian Desert has fogs brought in by ocean air currents
A novel and affordable fabric may improve the efficiency of water collection from fog, helping to provide freshwater in desert areas.
Researchers from the Eindhoven University of Technology (EUT), in the Netherlands, and Hong Kong Polytechnic University, China, turned a cotton fabric into a water-collecting material by coating it with a polymer called PNIPAAm.
The fabric switches between absorbing moisture directly from the air when it is foggy and cold, and releasing it as water at warmer temperatures, according to a paper to be published on 21 February in Advanced Materials.
Every kilogramme of the sponge-like fabric can absorb around 3.4 litres of water from the air. When the ambient temperature rises, the material's microstructure changes and the water is released. These processes are repeatable, raising hopes the fabric could act as an autonomous water-collecting device.
The team hopes the material could be used to harvest water in dry coastal areas, such as the Namib Desert, in Namibia, where rainfall is scarce but ocean air currents frequently bring vapour-carrying fogs.
The temperature range within which the fabric collects, and then releases, water is similar to the typical daytime highs and night-time lows seen in deserts.
Apart from capturing drinking water from fog in dry mountainous and desert regions, the fabric could have other uses, says Catarina Esteves of EUT.
"One application would be in agriculture," she tells SciDev.Net. "You could mix the coated fibres in the soil where you want to grow plants. At lower temperatures in the evening, it would collect the humidity from the atmosphere. As the temperature goes up the next day, it would release that water into the soil."
The researchers plan to fine-tune the fabric to increase the amount of water that is collected and also to change the air temperatures at which it absorbs and releases water, so it can be used in a wider range of environments.
While cotton is relatively inexpensive and readily available in many areas, Esteves says that more work is required to scale up the team's pocket-sized laboratory samples for practical use in deserts.
The researchers hope to collaborate with companies and other institutions to optimise the material for large-scale production.
Fog-harvesting nylon nets are already used in Chile, Nepal and Peru, but these rely on wind pushing the tiny water droplets that comprise fogs onto them.
The cotton-polymer alternative absorbs water vapour directly from the air and was found to work just as effectively without wind currents in the laboratory tests.
Pilar Cereceda Troncoso of the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, who has worked on fog collection for 30 years, says that although fog-collecting nets are inexpensive, improving the efficiency of fog collection could "make a great difference".
But Anne Lummerich from the NGO Alimón, which set up fog collectors in Peru, says that in many areas currently using fog collection, fog can settle for weeks or even months, with temperatures not getting high enough for the new fabric to release water.
Shreerang Chhatre, a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, United States, says the fabric could be used to "collect an appreciable quantity of water at different locations by tuning the temperature at which this switching occurs".
He says that the use of simple materials might make it cost-effective on a large scale, but adds that the rate at which water is collected and released might limit this technology from being commercialised.
Advanced Materials doi: 10.1002/adma.201204278 (2013)
M. Asghar ( France )
11 February 2013
The cotton fabric coated with the polymer water absorbing material is a good development. It would be worthwhile to compare it with the nylon-based system for fog collection in Chile, Nepal and Peru to improve them further.
Mikbak ( France )
11 February 2013
The idea is far from new: it has been used in parts of Latin America, such as Peru, for more than a decade and a system has been developed to stop winds from shaking the droplets off the material. An article, in French, partly on the subject, including information about the studies in El Hierro in the Canary Islands, has been accepted for publication in "Pour la Science" in March.

5 Ways to Start Saving Money in the New Year
If your New Year's resolution is to get your finances in order, these guidelines will help you get started.
In this economy—and especially during this time of year—many of us are facing our very own fiscal cliff. While we may not be able to raise revenue as easily as the federal government can, these five steps may help you reach solvency and put savings in the bank, financial planners say.
- Get organized. Put due dates for bills on an electronic calendar and you'll get email reminders to avoid late fees. A good filing system will help when tax time rolls around and will be useful in the next step below.
- Get a budget. There's a ton of free online resources for this, including mint.com and budgettracker.com. Some even track your bills.
- Get a debit card—and some scissors for your credit cards. Better yet, pay cash whenever possible. It's a fact that most people spend more when using a credit card. And if you use a credit card, pay the full amount owed each month. Servicing that debt will only get you deeper into debt.
- Get a handle on your credit score. The first three steps will help with this. A higher credit score can help you get a better interest rate if you're looking to lower your home mortgage by refinancing, or help you get lower credit rates in general. You can check on your credit score for free by going to the government website annualcreditreport.com.
- Get professional help. Nonprofits like Money Management International offer assistance at no charge. Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University has helped many people become debt and financial-worry free. Ramsey's service isn't free, but you can get a one-week free trial to test whether it fits your needs.
Once you're free of debt and ready to grow your savings, you can look to financial services companies for investment advice, including banks (Bank of America, Wells Fargo and others), insurers (State Farm, Allianz and others) and brokers (Edward Jones, for example).
Good luck.
11:22 am on Wednesday, January 2, 2013
As a long time coach for Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University, I can highly recommend it (I have seen it turn lives around 100% for the better!) - and would strongly recommend you invest in the CLASS. There is a lot to be said for the accountability that comes with going to class each week, rather than being on your own online. Plus you pick up lots of suggestions and great tips and encouragement along the way. Go to www.DaveRamsey.com, type in your zip code and find a class near you! You'll never regret it.
12:37 pm on Wednesday, January 2, 2013
Dave Ramsey is a dope. His "advice" may help borderline mentally rchallenged people but otherwise he just loudly repeats ( and charges money to hear/read) what most people already know. Don't spend more than you have and avoid going into debt for stuff you don't need.
The fact is Ramsey is just another shill making money off of stupid people. How much do his books cost? How much is it to attend one of his "classes"? PLEASE! Take this spam some place else.
For what its worth

Is ASU's Musselman a candidate for USC opening?
Originally published: Jan 14, 2013 - 10:59 am
O'Neill was in his fourth season with the Trojans and had a 48-65 record with the school. This season, USC was 7-10 and 2-2 in the Pac-12 following a 76-59 win at Utah Saturday which snapped a 12-game road losing streak.
Bob Cantu, one of O'Neill's assistants, will guide the team on an interim basis.
But now the fun begins. Names of potential successors are already floating around, and that list includes a local figure, according to Yahoo! Sports' Marc Spears.
Musselman is in his first season on Herb Sendek's staff at Arizona State, and has played a part in the Sun Devils' resurgence in 2012-13. After splitting in Oregon over the weekend, ASU is 14-3 and 3-1 in Pac-12 play as they head home to host highly-ranked in-state rival Arizona Saturday in Tempe.
Interestingly enough, Spears pulled the tweet just moments after posting it.

Saratoga City Council's quest to move last call in the city from 4 a.m. to 3 a.m. ended Monday when the county's Legislative and Research Committee voted it down. Our Erin Vannella tells us why there are mixed feelings about the decision.
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. -- "They don't get out of work 'til midnight, 12:30. By the time they go home, change, they don't get here until 2:00," said Gaffney's bartender Valori Ness.
Saratoga bartenders are happy the county's Legislative and Research Committee voted 5-1 against advancing the City Council's proposal to move last call from 4 a.m. to 3 a.m.
"It's very lucrative," said Ness. "There's plenty of times I've doubled the amount of money I would've made just by being open til 4."
The City Council has spent three years addressing the issue, covering more than just bar revenue. The sole county supporter said the proposal addressed quality of life.
"We're not making these things up," said Saratoga County Supervisor Joanne Yepsen. "There are real incidents. The police have been looking at this and how they can reschedule themselves, how they can do more overtime. This is costing the taxpayers a tremendous amount of money to stay open that one extra hour."
Yepsen said it's unfortunate the county had to vote on a city issue, and wishes her fellow board members had spent more time considering the city's research before rushing to a vote.
"When we reach a threshold that our city is no longer the city people come here for because it turns into something different in the middle of the night, then we have to look at it," said Yepsen.
But others who voted against the proposal say the city is capable of handling some problems on its own.
"Truthfully I think the city's taken a lot of steps already to fix the problem," said Saratoga County Supervisor Matthew Veitch. "I think they've done a pretty good job with that. I don't believe the 3 a.m. closing time is a step that would've made drastic changes."

PORT BARRE — A Port Barre High School student has been booked with battery on a school teacher and public intimidation just as school was letting out for Thanksgiving holiday break on Nov. 16.
The Daily World reports 18-year-old L'Tredrick Charles Roberts, of Opelousas, became "verbally combative and aggressive" with Assistant Principal Barbara Roberson as she dismissed students from the school's bleachers that afternoon. Roberts was allegedly swearing and ordering Roberson to move out of the way.
Seth Ortego, a coach with the school who is also a trained reserve sheriff's deputy and police officer, stepped in between the two.
Roberts was booked into the Port Barre jail. He was released on bond Nov. 21.
3 New Orleans officers fired
NEW ORLEANS — New Orleans city officials say three police officers have been fired for allegedly violating the department's truthfulness policy.
One officer, a 29-year veteran, was fired after an investigation into his being asleep in his uniform one afternoon in his personal vehicle. The officer allegedly failed to tell investigators that at the time he had been hired to work a private security detail.
Two other officers were dismissed for allegedly lying about their use of electronic stun devices. Both had claimed they used the devices on an armed man. However, the city says in its Wednesday news release that a video recording showed the man was unarmed and did not pose a threat of bodily harm when the devices were used.
Doyline residents encouraged
to evacuate today
DOYLINE — Residents of the northwest Louisiana town of Doyline are being encouraged to plan to leave home tonight and stay away throughout the weekend.
Authorities will be moving 1 million pounds of an explosive powder from Explo Systems Inc., a munitions dismantling company at Camp Minden.
Authorities say the powder, an explosive propellant used in military ammunitions, is not an imminent threat, but should have been housed in a bunker approved by the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. It also should have been registered with the Louisiana State Police explosives division.
State police investigators found the explosives during an inspection of property leased by Explo Systems, where an above-ground magazine storage facility exploded last month.
The process to move the powder will begin around 6 a.m. Saturday.
Grant man facing charges involving juveniles
ALEXANDRIA — An Allen Parish man is facing dozens of charges stemming from a complaint that he was involved in an inappropriate relationship with juveniles.
Robert Lee Grimes of Grant, 47, was arrested Tuesday in the Pineville area by the U.S. Marshals Violent Offender Task Force and Rapides deputies.
Warrants for Grimes' arrest had been issued after an investigation that started on Oct. 29.
Grimes was booked with 21 counts of indecent behavior with juveniles, 11 counts of felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile and 32 counts of contributing to the delinquency of juveniles. He was booked into the Rapides Parish Detention Center, where he is being held without bond.
Ex-Slaughter alderman facing ethics charges
BATON ROUGE — Former Slaughter Alderman Thomas Boothe faces state ethics charges related to his alleged misuse of public office.
The Advocate reports the Louisiana Board of Ethics posted the charges on its website Wednesday and asked the Ethics Adjudicatory Board to conduct a hearing on the allegations.
The counts stem from events during and following a May 6, 2011, traffic stop.
Two Slaughter police officers had detained a resident of the town. The Ethics Board alleges then-Alderman Boothe arrived at the scene. He disobeyed a warning to leave and was later arrested.
Boothe could not be reached for comment. The telephone listing for his home had been disconnected.
Boothe served two terms as a member of the Board of Aldermen in Slaughter from June 2004 to June 2012.
Water Institute of Gulf hires director
BATON ROUGE — A well-known coastal researcher has been hired as director of the Water Institute of the Gulf's physical processes and sediment systems.
Mead Allison was associate director of the Jackson School of Geosciences' Institute for Geophysics at University of Texas at Austin, and has researched river delta systems for almost 25 years.
Chip Groat, chief executive officer and president of The Water Institute, tells The Advocate Mead brings a wealth of applied and practical experience to the Institute's research team.
Allison will be a professor at Tulane University's Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences in addition to working at The Water Institute.
Formed in 2011, the Water Institute is a nonprofit independent research group involved in coordinating research needs for coastal restoration and planning in Louisiana.
Iberia council changes garbage contract
NEW IBERIA — The Iberia Parish Council voted 9-3 to pass a resolution altering its contract with garbage collection company IESI so the parish saves more than $115,000 over four years.
As part of the resolution, the council also changed the waste transfer station company from a locally owned facility run by parish resident Gordon Doyle to a facility that IESI owns in Lafayette Parish.
The Advocate reports Doyle walked out of Wednesday's meeting after the vote. He told the council he would have to lay off workers if the change in contract takes place.
Duncan said should any layoffs take place, IESI staff members have said they would hire the out-of-work employees as the workload will increase.
Teacher booked with molestation
FARMERVILLE — An investigation into a family disturbance has led to a Union Parish high school teacher being arrested on four counts of molestation of a juvenile.
The News-Star reports 41-year-old Bridgette Lynette Murphy Gean of Farmerville was booked Tuesday into the Union Parish Detention Center.
Sheriff Bob Buckley said detectives' investigation revealed Gean had sexual relations with a 16-year-old male juvenile who at the time 11 months ago was a student at Downsville High School.
Buckley says deputies had worked a domestic abuse case Saturday night at Gean's residence where she denied any altercation had taken place. However, her husband told deputies that his wife was beating on him.
Vehicular homicide arrest in I-10 fatality
LAFAYETTE — A 21-year-old Lafayette man is facing charges of vehicular homicide and operating a vehicle while intoxicated following his arrest in connection with a Nov. 3 fatal crash on Interstate 10.
The Advertiser reports Joey Fontenot was arrested Tuesday.
Police says the arrest was based on the continuing investigation into the crash and on a toxicology report.
The man who died in the crash was identified as 25-year-old Kelly Theriot of St. Martinville.
Police say Theriot's pickup hit Fontenot's truck from behind.
Investigators say Fontenot was stopped on the interstate when the crash occurred.
It was unclear whether Fontenot has an attorney.
N.O. police officer arrested in theft case
NEW ORLEANS — A New Orleans police officer has been arrested for allegedly stealing a gift card from an armed robbery victim's purse.
A news release from the city says 31-year-old April Moses was booked into Orleans Parish Prison at 8:12 p.m. Thursday on charges of theft and malfeasance.
A Public Integrity Bureau investigation revealed that Moses left her assignment on Sunday and bought $85 worth of goods at a Target store in Metairie. Police say the purse was turned into 8th District front desk while Moses was working.
The victim called the district station to report that the stolen gift card had been used.
Police say an FBI agent assisted in the investigation.
Ex-La. accountant gets prison in fraud scheme
NEW ORLEANS — A former Mandeville accountant has been sentenced to more than three years in prison for stealing more than $170,000 from an oilfield consulting business and defrauding a hair salon on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain out of at least $40,000.
U.S. District Judge Stanwood Duval Jr. on Wednesday sentenced 61-year-old Anthony Tulli to 41 months in prison and ordered him to pay restitution to his victims.
Tulli also pleaded guilty in October 2011 to failing to submit more than $800,000 in federal taxes to the IRS for a scrap metal company also based on the north shore.
Sheriff's office to pay
for employees' degrees
THIBODAUX — Lafourche Parish deputies will soon have a chance to get an associate degree in criminal justice from Fletcher Technical Community College and the cost of tuition and fees will picked up by the sheriff's office.
Under the system, the sheriff's office will pay for the program for any employee who keeps a "C" average or better, starting in 2013.

Ex-N.O. official gets prison in Katrina plot
NEW ORLEANS — A former New Orleans city councilman has been sentenced to six months in prison for plotting to misuse federal money intended to help a nonprofit organization after Hurricane Katrina.
U.S. District Judge Lance Africk also on Thursday sentenced Jon Johnson to six months of home detention and ordered him to pay more than $79,000 in restitution to the federal government.
Johnson pleaded guilty in July to diverting funds from a nonprofit he controlled to his 2007 campaign for state Senate.
A court filing outlined more than $140,000 in grant money earmarked for the Ninth Ward Housing Development Corp. but didn't specify exactly how much Johnson stole.
Johnson also pleaded guilty to submitting false documents to the Small Business Administration after receiving a loan for repairing storm damage to his home.
Johnson, who also was fined $5,000, must report to prison by Jan. 8.
His attorney, Julian Murray, told reporters he does not know how the government arrived at a restitution figure of $79,691.
He said Johnson and his wife put hundreds of thousands of dollars of their own money into the nonprofit.

Pedro Ciriaco gets first major league hit
During Wednesday's 9-3 loss to the Braves, Ciriaco got his first opportunity to show the Pirates he could be the shortstop of the future.
In the ninth inning, Ciriaco came in to pinch-hit for Chan Ho Park. In his first major league at-bat, Pedro hit a RBI double. Not only did he get his first hit but he also picked up his first career RBI.
Going into the 2011 season, Ciriaco's is being considered for to play shortstop.
Ronny Cedeno –the Pirates current shortstop– has shown flashes of potential but has been very inconsistent this season. He will also be arbitration eligible for the third time and would be due for a raise. (He is currently making $1.125 M.)
"I don't know if I'm going to play or not, but I'm going to be here and learn from the veteran guys here and work and have fun as much as I can," Ciriaco said. "I was little and started playing, it was my dream to be in the big leagues. When I found out, it was amazing for me."
Ciriaco was acquired from the Arizona Diamondbacks in the deal that sent Ryan Church, Bobby Crosby and D.J Carrasco in return for Pedro as well as Catcher, Chris Synder.
Since being traded, he was batting .281 with Triple-A Indy.

Solyndra files for bankruptcy. BrightSource Energy cancels its IPO. SolarCity's IPO prices at little more than half of what the company had originally planned for and during the roadshow bankers for the panel installer play up the company's consumer finance angle to distance it from a number of high-profile failures in the sector.
Investors in the solar industry and clean technology in general have been skittish and the industry's been plagued by bad headline after bad headline in the past year.
Lawyers acknowledge that a slowdown in cleantech deals is altering their practices. Capital is more difficult to come by for many cleantech companies, lawyers say, and more of the work within the sector is focused on restructuring and turnaround situations.
Nonetheless, lawyers who advise cleantech companies say rumors of the industry's demise have been greatly exaggerated.
"It is not uncommon in Silicon Valley where early movers are unsuccessful, there is a retreat, and then another wave comes through," said Sayre Stevick, a Fenwick & West partner focused on green technology and life sciences. "I don't expect the next wave to be more than three or four years away."
In the past year venture capital financings have declined as a whole, and money going towards clean technology has dropped much more drastically. According to figures from the National Venture Capital Association for the third quarter of 2012, the most recent period for which numbers are available, total venture funding fell 6.5 percent to about $6.5 billion from the year-earlier period. Total deals actually ticked up slightly by about 1.6 percent to 890.
Meanwhile for cleantech, which the NVCA says includes alternative energy, pollution and recycling, power supplies and conservation, the total invested fell 11.2 percent to $791 million while the number of deals plummeted 27.5 percent to 58.
On the public company side there were at least 19 U.S. equity deals, including initial public offerings, follow-ons and convertible debt sales, in 2010 from cleantech companies, compared to eight in 2011 and 10 in 2012, according to data provider Dealogic.
While fewer startups are venturing into the cleantech space, more mature startups are still "alive and kicking and getting funded," said Fenwick's Stevick.
There are also more "pay-to-play" rounds, which are a type of restructuring, and refer to the process of forcing a company's existing investors that do not want to participate in further financings to convert their preferred shares into common stock, Stevick said. Preferred shareholders control a greater percentage of the voting rights in a company than do common stockholders.

KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) -- Brian Cashman wanted to make this perfectly clear: The umpires were correct when they called Alex Rodriguez out for interference on that crazy play during the AL championship series.
``They got it completely right, 100 percent,'' the New York Yankees' general manager said this week.
``But you would hate to have a game, or a series or even a season come down to a play where they miss it and instant replay could have helped,'' he said. ``So as far as instant replay, I'm in favor of it.''
Now, after a pennant race and postseason dotted with reversed rulings, baseball will get another chance to see who else wants to give replay a look.
The topic is on the agenda for Thursday at the GM meetings. And there seems to be growing support among teams to join the NFL, NBA and NHL in using instant replay on calls such as fair or foul and homer or not, but definitely not balls and strikes.

Large cupboards in which to keep clothes and other objects had been in use in France for some time before this type of furniture was adapted in the later 17th century to serve in rooms of state. An impressive appearance could be heightened by means of the materials used, as in this example, which is finely decorated with boulle marquetry - veneers (wafer-thin sheets that are glued and then cut out to a design) in ebony, tortoiseshell, brass, pewter and horn. The Paris workshop of André-Charles Boulle (1642-1732) made the most important pieces of furniture of this kind, but this example, although of high quality, is probably the work of another cabinet-maker.
