Fans of BioWare's big RPGs were treated to the briefest of teases during Electronic Arts' EA Play conference of E3 2017. EA revealed that BioWare's secretive new IP is called…
Mass Effect Andromeda: Criticism, Cruelty, and the Shadow of the TrilogyPosted by Eric Watson | Feature, PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One | No Comments
No other game series defined a generation as completely as Mass Effect. Developed from the ground up as a trilogy, the Mass Effect series told the story of one space-faring superhero and his or her motley crew of badasses. Taken individually each game contains major flaws, but the series collectively struck a nerve over its five year release window. They were AAA action games full of lasers and explosions. But the focus was always on your crew members and developing strong relationships, whether romantic or platonic.
In many ways Mass Effect represented a critical intersection between the Play Your Way freedom that RPGs can provide, and the linear theme park structure and spectacle of big-budget games. Add in one of the most well-constructed sci-fi universes since Star Wars and you have the recipe for one of the most beloved and memorable game series in modern gaming.
It's five years later. Five years since the release of Mass Effect 3, and a controversy surrounding the ending that proved the passionate fanbase could turn on a dime. BioWare would infamously take this vitriolic feedback to heart, eventually releasing post-launch patches to update and tweak the ending. The ending of the trilogy is still one of the most divisive and sour notes in gaming, brought on because the Mass Effect series has become such an important cultural phenomenon for gamers.
So it shouldn't be a surprise that the fangs came out for Mass Effect: Andromeda.
Mass Effect: Andromeda proves that you can't go home again. I mean that in the figurative sense, though literally Andromeda takes place hundreds of years and light-years removed from the Milky Way galaxy and the time period of the original trilogy. You arrive in an all-new galaxy after a 600-year journey, ready to explore and colonize a new slice of the universe.
That's an exciting premise, but Andromeda has a steep hill to climb. It has to separate itself from the original trilogy and its beloved heroes like Commander Shepard, Garrus, Tali, and Wrex. No more Reapers, no more Geth. Much of the beloved universe-building and lore has to evolve to fit a new narrative within a new galaxy.
Yet it also has to feel like a Mass Effect game. Thus the Andromeda Initiative brings along gigantic colony ships full of Krogan, Salarian, Turian, and Asari. All their conflicts are still there, like the genophage and hostility between Krogan and Salarians. You get to take the Milky Way with you, which prevents Andromeda from crafting a new journey into the unknown.
The biggest problem with Mass Effect: Andromeda, however, is technical. Awkward animations and poorly optimized graphics often destroy the immersion and cohesion in many dialogue scenes. If Andromeda was more about pure run and gun action that may be forgivable, but the Mass Effect series prides itself on role-playing and character interaction. During a tensely emotional scene the last thing you want is for your character to stare ahead dead-eyed, or look the wrong direction. It feels sloppy and unfinished, and we're talking about a AAA spin-off sequel that should have been given all the time and money it needed.
The general gaming public turned on Mass Effect: Andromeda with startling alacrity. Excitement melted away to cynicism as clips and images began circulating of the awkward and laughably bad animations and character models.
It began with playfully pointing out the goofy animation weirdness, like the ones below.

But things quickly grew cruel and sinister in a way the No Man's Sky developers are all too familiar with. A subsection of gaming troglodytes picked an ex-EA developer to heap all their blame on, and targeted her in a vicious harassment campaign. The Metacritic User Score currently sits at an ugly 4.6 with over 2500 user reviews.
When people are disappointed they look for someone to blame. But most video games, especially AAA games are a hugely collaborative process. The animation woes in Mass Effect: Andromeda are the result of time management and prioritization.
Jonathan Cooper, a veteran animator at Naughty Dog (formerly BioWare), put together an informative twitter thread explaining how the animations in Andromeda are built using algorithms rather than by hand. You can start the thread below.
Folks have been asking so here are my thoughts on Mass Effect Andromeda's animation. Hopefully people will better understand the process.

BioWare responded this week, and teased out future plans and patches: "We've received quite a bit of feedback, some of it positive and some of it critical. That feedback is an important part of our ongoing support of the game, and we can't wait to share more of our immediate plans with you on Tuesday, April 4."

— BioWare (@bioware) March 30, 2017
A lot of the controversy boils down to the simple fact that for many game development remains an impenetrable, mysterious process that most people are wholly unfamiliar with. The level of time, work, and money it takes to make a game, let alone a gigantic undertaking like Mass Effect: Andromeda is vastly underrated and under appreciated. It takes talent, skill, passionate, and often a detrimental work-life balance to produce video games in a highly competitive industry. To see the level of vitriol beyond standard criticism is disappointing, but not shocking to a series with such a passionate fanbase.
It's not all bad. Critics and fans were ultimately mixed on Andromeda. Technical issues aside, the story has a poor opening but gets better the further along you play (a common complaint for many big JRPGs as well). The new cast members are generally praised as being worthy of BioWare's past efforts, the flexible combat system is well-received, and some side quests offer compelling writing and scenarios. Andromeda's biggest failing is trying to survive in the shadow of the trilogy, and the technical difficulties don't do it any favors.
Constructive, thoughtful criticism is important and valuable to elicit the right kind of feedback and push people to make better games. Harassment and frothing hatred doesn't do anyone any favors, however, and could easily push many budding game developers out of the career altogether. I do worry that BioWare created a dangerous precedent in tweaking the ending to Mass Effect 3, opening the doors to harsher and more possessive criticism than most. We all want better games, and no one wants an amazing Mass Effect game more than BioWare. Hopefully they can still deliver one.
Mass Effect: Andromeda Launches TodayPosted by Eric Watson | News, PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One | No Comments
The first new Mass Effect game in five years is out today in North America. Developed by BioWare and published by Electronic Arts, Mass Effect: Andromeda is available for PC (Origin), Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. A companion app is also available for iOS and Android.
"We're very happy to welcome the fans back to the Mass Effect universe," said Aaryn Flynn, VP and GM of BioWare. "The team's vision for this epic new chapter was to take what our fans love about Mass Effect – great characters and combat – and add more emphasis on exploration while telling a different type of story. We're following a group of characters who are just starting their heroic journey, and we can't wait for our fans to discover more about them and this new galaxy."
Mass Effect: Andromeda distances itself literally from the original trilogy through both time and space. A 600-year long journey thrusts your colony-seeking crew into an all-new galaxy far from our Milky Way. You play as one of the Ryder siblings, a brother or sister. Your Ryder is a Pathfinder, a leader and vanguard of the dangerous exploration missions you'll undertake.
In addition to a single player campaign, Mass Effect: Andromeda will feature cooperative multiplayer, which play similarly to the multiplayer found in Mass Effect 3 and Dragon Age: Inquisition. Mass Effect: Andromeda also utilizes the Frostbite 3 engine, which is featured in all of EA's games of the last few years such as Dragon Age: Inquisition and Battlefield 1.
Launch day reviews have been lukewarm, ranging from praise to harsh criticism. The title currently hovers around a mixed Metascore of 75 (stay tuned for our review).
Mass Effect: Andromeda is available in Standard Edition ($59.99), Deluxe Edition ($69.99), and Super Deluxe ($99.99). The Deluxe Edition grants access to additional digital goodies, such as armor, booster packs for multiplayer, and a pet space monkey. The Super Deluxe Edition is digital only and comes with everything in the Deluxe Edition, plus "a [multiplayer] Premium Pack coming your way every week, for 20 weeks."
Former EA Employee Harassed for Mass Effect: AndromedaPosted by Eric Watson | News, PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One | No Comments
Mass Effect: Andromeda is making headlines for all the wrong reasons. The big sci-fi action sequel releases tomorrow. The first ten hours been available over the last week through Origin Access. Apparently it suffers from some awkward character animations. Players are blasting the internet waves with mockery and jokes, like they did with Battlefield 1 and pretty much every Assassin's Creed. Things quickly took a sinister and cruel turn, however.
A targeted harassment campaign focused on a female employee at Electronic Arts, who was singled out as being the "lead animator" and sole arbiter of Mass Effect's woes. Not only are video games vastly collaborative products, but the woman in question isn't even a current employee.
BioWare's General Manager Aaryn Flynn responded via Twitter: "Recently a former EA employee was misidentified as a lead member of the Mass Effect: Andromeda development team. These reports are false. We respect the opinions of our players and community, and welcome feedback on our games. But attacking individuals, regardless of their involvement in the project, is never acceptable."
— BioWare (@bioware) March 18, 2017
The harassment campaign can be traced back to the Ralph Retort, a GamerGate-friendly blog. The GamerGate losers are always at hand to make gamers look like complete troglodytes by harassing game developers – particularly any that aren't straight white dudes. A similar situation happened with Alison Rapp while she was employed at Nintendo, and blamed for localization in which she had no hand in. The most recent case was with No Man's Sky and Sean Murray, who had to all but withdraw from social media. Writer Katherine Cross has a good twitter thread breakdown of this terrible cycle of online abuse.
This isn't even BioWare's first rodeo with targeted harassment. Jennifer Hepler wrote much of Dragon Age: Origins and its sequel, but was harassed right around the launch of Mass Effect 3.
BioWare is known for creating heavily story-based action-adventure games with an emphasis on characters and relationships. They have a passionate and vocal fanbase, which can be terrifying when things get ugly. Exhibit A is the controversy that still surrounds Mass Effect 3's ending, and the fact that BioWare would later go back and update it due to the feedback.
The industry would benefit from game companies being more open about the design process. Many complaints stem from the general public being ignorant on how video game design and creation actually works – especially the amount of time, money, and people it takes. But when game developers are hit with witch hunts it doesn't exactly embolden companies to become more open. If anything, it's the opposite. As game developers become more diverse and games more mainstream, hopefully we can strike a nice balance in the future – and shut down any harassment as soon as it crawls out of the sewer.
A new video released today reveals Natalie Dormer's role in Mass Effect: Andromeda. The Game of Thrones star plays your ship's doctor, an asari named Dr. Lexi T'Perro. "She's got…
One of the most highly anticipated games of the last several years finally has an official release date. BioWare has confirmed that Mass Effect: Andromeda will launch on March 21,…

JACK & is a stand-up routine turned sitcom baking fiasco that mingles cakes and kitchen disasters, recipes and remedies, jokes, and goldfish to paint the portrait of a dream interrupted and resumed. The comedy of errors is structured on social codes and training from prison reentry programs to debutante balls. The performance considers re-entry to society after prison, focusing not the time one has served but the measure of one's dreaming that is given to the state.
"Jack" works the night shift at an industrial bakery. He returns home to bake a cake for his wife "Jill"; "Jack" ends up whirling through a dance—part dream, part ritual—re-entering his own internal life. The performance draws on aspirational class stories like those in The Honeymooners and Amos & Andy; the paintings of Agnes Martin, Ellen Gallagher and Ruth Asawa; tigers in Harlem; real and imagined entering society ceremonies like Cotillion balls; and markers of transition from John Canoe traditions, to the mirroring and mimicry found in African American dance pageantry of the late nineteenth Century.
Directed by Kaneza Schaal and starring Cornell Alston, the performance explores markers of transition and transformation and the liminal spaces that bridge worlds.
Kaneza Schaal is a New York City based theater artist. Her recent work GO FORTH premiered at PS122 and then showed at the Genocide Memorial Amphitheater in Kigali, Rwanda; LMCC's River-to-River Festival; Contemporary Arts Center New Orleans; Cairo International Contemporary Theater Festival in Egypt; and at her alma mater Wesleyan University, CT. Schaal received a 2017 MAP Fund award, 2016 Creative Capital Award, and is the current Aetna New Voices Fellow at Hartford Stage. This spring her new piece CARTOGRAPHY will be workshopped through New Victory Theater Lab, NYU Abu Dhabi, and will show at The Kennedy Center's New Vision New Voices. Her work with The Wooster Group, Elevator Repair Service, Richard Maxwell/New York City Players, Claude Wampler, Jim Findlay, and Dean Moss has brought her to venues including Centre Pompidou, Royal Lyceum Theater Edinburgh, The Whitney Museum, and MoMA.
Run time: 75 min.
JACK & is a project of Creative Capital, the New England Foundation for the Arts' National Theater Project, and The Map Fund, supported by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation; a National Performance Network (NPN) Creation Fund Project co-commissioned by the Contemporary Arts Center (Cincinnati) in partnership with On The Boards (Seattle), Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, Walker Art Center (Minneapolis), REDCAT (Los Angeles), and NPN; a commission by Hartford Stage through the Aetna New Voices Fellowship; and with support from BRIClab, the Baryshnikov Arts Center, and THE LUMBERYARD.
Note: the September 8 performance will be ASL interpreted.

May joy and nothing less find you on the way,
May you be blessed and a blessing
And may light guide you and countless others, all the way home.
Disturb us, Lord, when
We are too pleased with ourselves,
When our dreams have come true
Because we dreamed too little,
When we arrived safely
Because we sailed to close to shore.
Disturb us, Lord, when
with the abundance of things we possess
We have lost our thirst for the waters of life,
We have ceased to dream of eternity
And in our efforts to build a new earth,
We have allowed our vision
Of the new Heaven to dim.
Disturb us, Lord, to dare more boldly,
To venture on wilder seas
Where storms will show Your mastery,
Where losing sight of land,
We shall find the stars.
We ask you to push back
The horizons of our hopes;
And to push back the future
In strength,courage,hope and love.
We ask in the name of our Captain,
Who is Jesus Christ.

Palm Springs is a great vacation destination with a variety of activities to enjoy with your pets, including the the pet friendly Palm Springs Air Museum!
We've been lucky to spend the past several winters exploring the Coachella Valley with Ty and Buster. From sniffing out the top 10 dog friendly things to do in Palm Springs, to day trips to Borrego Springs and hiking in Joshua Tree National Park.
But all of these activities require cooperation from the weather gods. What can you do with your pet in Palm Springs if it's too rainy, windy, or hot to be outside? Visit the pet friendly Palm Springs Air Museum!
Named as one of the top 14 aviation museums in the world by CNN Travel in 2014, the Palm Springs Air Museum boasts the world's largest collections of flyable aircraft from WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. There are 59 flyable and static planes on display inside the four climate-controlled hangers, and more outside on the tarmac! And friendly pets are welcome to enjoy the museum with you.
After paying for admission in the gift shop, you can watch a documentary in the Buddy Rogers Theater, go upstairs to the research library and computer flight simulators, or head to the hangars.
The four hangars are organized by theme, with related exhibits lining the walls. As you roam the 86,000 square feet, be sure to say hello to the museum's friendly docents. Many actually flew these planes and served on the ships!
There are no ropes to keep you from interacting with the exhibits, so you can get a good look at the cockpit and instruments. And a number of the aircraft are open for tours every day.
The museum hosts a wide variety of programs with guest speakers, so be sure to check their website for the schedule before your visit.
More aircraft are on display on the tarmac behind the hangers and on the museum grounds. If the weather cooperates, be sure to walk around some of these massive planes and see the F-16 Fighting Falcon. You may recognize the F-16, which the U.S. Navy uses at their famous "Top Gun" flying school in Miramar, California.
A day spent at the pet friendly Palm Springs Air Museum is one to remember. It's a walk through history and a tribute to the men and women who served. But it's also a place to make your own memories. Take time to appreciate the incredible preservation and restoration of these beautiful aircraft. And, if seeing them on the ground just isn't enough, you can even schedule a ride in one of these spectacular planes!

According to Doosan Vina, the Korean archers are expected to visit Hanoi from December 4-8 to provide a 5-day training camp to transfer their skills in archery. The program aims to build confidence and help Vietnamese archers in making thorough preparations for international competitions.
The training camp and the three previous courses that took place in Vietnam and the ROK have been part of activities organised under the Memorandum of Understanding, in which Doosan pledged to provide support in terms of finance, equipment, expertise, and regular exchange activities among archers and coaches.

Imagine a time when you had to carry a whale oil lamp to see your way up a dark, muddy Queen Street because there were no streetlights to light your way, or in order to travel to a neighbouring community, instead of jumping in the car, you had to walk, sail or hitch up your favourite horse. These situations were the norm not that long ago. Energy uses and innovation have changed the way we live, from a harsh reality, to a relatively easy existence. Slowly, these conveniences have been negatively impacting our environment. However, our history of innovation shows that we have been adapting to new ways of doing things for many years and it is possible to change.
In recognition of the City's efforts to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, we created an exhibit outlining the City's energy and innovation milestones. Entitled, Heat, Lights and the Devil Wagon: A History of Energy and Innovation in Charlottetown, the exhibit featured historic photos from the City's Archival Collection, donations from the public and artifacts generously provided by the PEI Museum and Heritage Foundation Collection.

I GUESS you can keep exercising…a personal tale of prenatal exercise
I rode my bicycle to my first prenatal appointment. I had competed in triathlons for the 4 years prior, so riding my bike was very natural. At the appointment, one of the health care providers hinted that I probably should stop riding my bike. Now that I was pregnant, I wouldn't want to do anything […]

For most of the 2016 season, the Baltimore Orioles and Toronto Blue Jays looked like playoff teams. Baltimore lead the AL East as late as mid-August, while the Jays had the top spot for the final time on September 6, when they were tied with Boston. Tonight's AL Wildcard matchup between division rivals will be for the right to play the Texas Rangers Thursday afternoon in one of the ALDS series.
The Orioles will send their best starter, Chris Tillman (16-6, 3.77), to the mound against Marcus Stroman (9-10, 4.37). The game that will be a showcase some of the American League's best power hitters, so if you're looking for sacrifice bunts and stolen bases, you'll be tuning in to the wrong game.
Tillman is prone to throwing a lot of pitches in his starts, as he has only pitched into the eighth inning one time all season. Also, keep in mind he was on the DL for three weeks (shoulder) at the end of August through mid-September. This really isn't an issue for O's manager Buck Showalter since he has a formidable bullpen with the likes of Brad Brach (10-4, 2.05), Darren O'Day (3-1, 3.77) and Dylan Bundy (10-5, 4.02). These three just need to bridge Tillman to the AL's best closer and one of the favorites for the Cy Young Award, Zach Britton (2-1, 0.54, 47 saves in 47 chances).
Marcus Stroman will get the start for the Blue Jays, which could be considered a surprise to some, given the other available option was newly acquired veteran lefty, Francisco Liriano. Manager John Gibbons went with Stroman who fared well in the 2015 post season for Toronto, so the 5'8′ 180 pound Stroman should be up to the task. Middle reliever Jason Grilli has not been sharp of late (0-1, 1 blown save and a 32.00 ERA in the last 3 appearances) so look for Liriano to possibly come out of the pen if Stroman gets in trouble early. Toronto closer Roberto Osuna (36 saves) has only two six-out appearances in 72 games pitched.
Now for the fun part of tonight's game, the power by both teams at the plate.
There are six players on each side that have hit 20 or more home runs in 2016 with too many strike outs to count. The Orioles are lead by K-Machine, Kris Davis (219 Ks, 38 HR) and their best overall hitter, Manny Machado (.294, 37, 96). Toss in Mark Trumbo and his AL leading 47 homers and one can see how Baltimore ended up in tonight's game.
Toronto's free swingers are lead by Edwin Encarnacion and his 42 homers, while Jose Bautista's injury riddled 2016 campaign finished with him healed and hitting for a better average from the middle of September until the clinching game. Troy Tulowitzki, Russell Martin add to Toronto's playoff experience and oh by the way, last season's Most Valuable Player, Josh Donaldson (.284, 37, 99) and you can see why the fans in Toronto love to fill the Rogers Centre.
Despite the decent pitching matchup, be prepared for a long game with many pitching changes due to an offensive showdown between two free swinging, power-hitting teams that forged a similar regular season path to arrive in today's AL Wildcard game.
The Jays will prevail and outscore the Orioles early in a back and forth, highly entertaining score-fest that will see both teams plate at least 6 runs. East coasters, be prepared to stay awake late.

What customers are saying
Laura Hamilton has been a friend of mine for 6 years or more but it wasn't until my college age son started to really struggle that her value as a coach and mentoring professional fully came into play. My son has worked with Laura for the past 4 years. I can only hope that other students will have the opportunity to engage with her when they are planning their move into the adult world!
In my sons third year of college, he began to get into trouble and his self-esteem plummeted. Truly I feared for his life (as any mother would) but Laura encouraged me to bring him to her for mentoring. I met with them together once then he requested to meet with her on his own. I was so delighted that he would determine for himself that she could support his moving toward a more positive future, I quickly agreed. His behavior turned around almost immediately and his self-esteem began to grow with each better decision he made.
Today my son works for Apple in California – his "dream job". He credits his positive moves forward to his conversations with Laura and her no nonsense approach and perspective on both his current behavior and his future. I believe anyone would greatly benefit from her positive attitude, no nonsense manner and broad background.
Sincerely, Lauren, Certified Health Coach Ft. Meyers, FL
Laura cares deeply about people being successful and providing the support structure that they need to become successful in their endeavors. She is a very thoughtful, out- of-the box thinker, and problem solver. She is willing to look at all facets of a problem and find a solution that will be equitable for all, without taking disagreements personally. This is her greatest strength.
I began working with Laura for my own professional development two years ago. I am in a transition period and didn't know which direction to pursue. Laura has helped me make the decision to return to school and pursue a graduate degree in a different field than I currently work in. I continue to see Laura as I work through this transition and find her guidance and help in creating workable plans of action invaluable.
I also have consulted Laura for help with my daughter who is a sophomore in college. She has been struggling in her studies and life path. Laura has provided some clarity and solutions as to how best to help me interact with my daughter and be supportive to my daughter as she struggles to figure out her life path.
Sincerely, Kathleen M. Richmond, VA
Thank you, Laura Hamilton!
I just spent the most beautiful weekend with my mother! It was filled with such grace, peace, love, and compassion. I am certain that our recent astrology mentoring session, in which we studied my mother's chart, cultivated this experience.
As you and I reflected on my mother's chart, I found my perspective shifting. I could see that the aspects of our relationship that had been challenging to me, had also been lifelong challenges for her.
In this awareness, I felt my compassion deepening. I felt such gratitude to her for her steadfast commitment to healing these difficult patterns.
As you and I also reflected on the many gifts, blessings, and virtues that were "written" in her chart, I was reminded that we always have the choice of what we focus on. In that moment, I made the conscious choice to focus on these virtuous qualities in my mother.
I am certain that it was this shift in my perspective, which was fostered by our astrology mentoring session, that made this exceptionally precious weekend with my mother possible.
Thank you, so much for sharing your wisdom and insight! I am so grateful to you!
With my deepest appreciation, Laurra S., Bridgton, ME
Laura is a gifted astrologer. Not only is she great at 'reading' astrology but the way she translates the information in a very "user friendly" way that is understandable and very impactful. I have used her services for myself personally and for a business partnership. Her information made perfect sense and it helped me make several big decisions. Laura also works with Myers Briggs system and when she talks about this system it almost sounds like poetry. Her communication skills for these modalities is worth the money! I used her Myers-Briggs testing and education for my live in partner and we both were amazed at how accurate the issues were in how we communicated. I have been a happy client now for 10 years. Jonni V - Atlanta, GA
I recommend Laura Hamilton for her counseling skills, and motivational support skills which are exceptional. I'm familiar with Laura's skills in mentoring and motivational support, as I have greatly benefited from them in my personal life. A few years after I graduated from college, I experienced a traumatic event and was suicidal. At the time my mother was traveling and I was alone. In a panic, my mother called Laura, to see if she could help me until my mother arrived home again. I landed on Laura's doorstep having been crying for days. Laura sat me down and listened to me and was somehow able to stop the river of tears that I had been experiencing for days. Laura helped me feel safe, listened to and supported during a really difficult period of my life. Laura continued to mentor me for months and helped motivate me to set personal and professional goals, and to begin to work towards them. I would not have made it through this time without her amazing support as a mentor. I highly recommend. Sarah R. Maine

The day before we departed Fort Myers, Jason, John and Dave filled a U-haul U-box pod with all of our belongings to be shipped to a nearby U-haul location.
We decided that would be the cheapest, easiest way to move our stuff from Florida to Tennessee. Although it was easier to put our stuff in a pod and just worry about driving our own cars with some of our belongings, dealing with U-haul has been an extreme headache. That headache has led us to the decision of never using their company again.
Although many calls were made within the last few weeks, it was not until yesterday that Jason finally received some answers to questions that he has been after for 13 days. We were completely shocked of how poorly this business runs, how incompetent they were and how many people it took to get to one answer.
The good news is after sleeping on a blowup bed for 13 days, a bed that the cats have managed to puncture tiny holes in; our pod finally arrived at its destination today! Even better, Jason's cousin and husband have agreed to help us transport the pod trailer to our complex, making it even easier for us to empty the pod and fill our apartment.
It has been quite the adventure living in an apartment that really does not have any of our belongings.
I'm grateful that the apartment complex clubhouse has a washer and dryer facility, so we could do our laundry. I have spent a great deal of time here as I wait for the machines to finish. The nice thing is I can do two or three loads all at once, depending on the amount of quarters I have, speeding up the process.
You really do not realize how spoiled you are until things are taken away, like the comfort of a couch, the warmth of your own bed and the convenience of having all your pots and pans for the kitchen.
Although it has been quite the experience, Jason and I managed and made the best of our situation. Last night, for example, it felt like we were camping in our living room with the fire burning in the fireplace and the blow up bed close by. Or when we wanted comfort we took a drive to a beautiful park or to the store and enjoyed the comfortable seats of our cars!
It will be nice to move all of our furniture into our apartment, finally making it feel like home – a place of comfort and relaxation.

So I finally moved out of my place, where I'd lived ever since I set foot in Mumbai. The reason was obvious—this was a small apartment, though it was fine till now because I hardly spent time at home. Life had followed a little zigzag line: I'd moved to London for five years and, when I moved back in 2012, I was travelling continuously. I have been in this extended-temporary phase of homelessness thanks to my work and travel. In 2016, I've already been to Europe four times, once to Australia and twice to New York, not to mention journeys within India for Angry Indian Goddesses, Island City, Unindian and Parched. The mind itself is in a state of constant travel: where's the time to look for a bigger space where one can settle down with a Tourister full of thoughts and other knick-knacks?
When I get precious spare time to look for places, I come back with the strangest stories but no house. Once we sat down to negotiate the price and the couple who owned the flat started fighting. As I sat there watching, a touch stupefied, I realised they were selling the apartment because they were separating. And suddenly, in the middle of it, they did not want to sell it anymore! In another case, two brothers had a disagreement. Sometimes the bank did not approve the papers, some didn't have parking...an endless list of fruitless ventures. My friends are now tired of giving me agents' numbers and asking, "You still have not found a place?" Yes, I am still homeless. Some friends who've been through this understand my plight, and understand how difficult it is to find that one right place in Mumbai.
Believe me, it's almost as difficult as finding that one right guy/girl. I am still looking for both, the house and the man....
The only good thing about my (temporary, hopefully) homelessness is that I jump at every opportunity to get out of this city. And that's when all the brilliant ideas and stories come to me. All the interesting people I meet, all the special incidents happen, all the beautiful places I visit...that gives me enough fodder to create, to build an alternate home so to speak, or call it the various transit lounges artists pass through as they try to find their next big idea in this perplexing, fascinating world.
A few years ago, when I was shooting for Dev Benegal's Road, Movie in the Rann of Kutch, I met a woman who taught me to make rotlas, to wear the costume and carry the dupatta for my role. We grew fond of each other and I visited her a few times. One day she suddenly hugged me and revealed her life-story. She had become a widow at 17 and had brought her son and daughter up with great difficulty. It had been 15 years since a man had touched her. She missed it. She had desire which was all suppressed. She had the most beautiful and saddest eyes I had ever seen. They stayed with me.
A few years later, I shared this story with my friend Linaa Yadav and Aseem Bajaj over dinner. Linaa found it fascinating and asked me to take her to this village. She met this woman (my role, finally) and many others in the village. And we made Parched, which tells stories of women, their lives, desires, sexuality, female bonding. Our star producer Ajay Devgan says it is a film "every man should watch". Women will watch it anyway.
The film has had an incredible journey. It premiered in Toronto last year and thereafter went to 23 international festivals and won plenty awards. I won the best actress in IFFLA and France (and now await the India reception this week!). In all our travels, we realised the stories were universal. Women in America, Sweden and Mexico came to us saying this happens in their backyard. Stories set in a village in India strike a chord across the globe. That was a sad revelation. Reactions to Parched and Angry Indian Goddesses made me realise how privileged some of us are. That we can live a much freer life than many women can even imagine possible.
The key idea in Parched is that our conditioning is the biggest villain. (Men are victims of the same conditioning.) I'll answer the question, 'Will this change the plight of women?', with a cliche that must be repeated. Art has never stopped a war, or fed a poor stomach, but art makes all of us better humans.
In the 21st century, when the blur of technology is taking poetry, music and nature away from us, the human soul needs to be kept alive and watered with art. Let's give more life to our parched existence.
Pune-born Tannishtha Chatterjee is an NSD-trained actress internationally known for her roles in Brick Lane, Shadows of Time, and most recently, Parched.

After widespread reports of voter disenfranchisement during last Tuesday's New York primary, Mayor Bill de Blasio proposed reforming the city's Board of Elections on Monday.
Mayor de Blasio announced that $20 million would be made available to fund reforms concerning future elections in the city, his reported. The proposed reforms cover a variety of election issues from hiring outside consultants to improving email communication with voters.
RELATED:VIDEO: De Blasio, Clinton share a cringeworthy joke onstage
"The Board of Elections is an outdated organization in dire need of modernization — and we need to make these changes now," the mayor said in a statement. "We cannot allow a single voter to be disenfranchised because of the Board of Elections' outdated operations."
The mayor's office proposals included hiring a consultant to analyze the April 19 primary, developing a panel of election experts and increasing poll workers' training and salaries.
"These common-sense reforms will bring much-needed transparency, modernize practices, and help ensure we do not experience an election day like last week's again," de Blasio said.
RELATED:Mayor issues order outlining transgender use of single-sex bathrooms
The proposed reforms also included ways to directly reach voters, including sending email and text notifications, creating absentee ballot tracking, adding poll site signage and hiring a logistics specialist to address Election Day issues, the mayor's office stated.
The mayor's reform announcement came as his administration was responding to a memo from Board of Elections Chief Enforcement Officer Risa Sugarman alleging potential fundraising wrong-doing during de Blasio's most recent campaign to become mayor, according to the New York Daily News.
In her memo, Sugarman alleged that de Blasio's camp would solicit donations to local committees that would, in turn, quickly transfer those donations to individual candidates, the Daily News added.

"We want to get everything out. … But from my vantage point, everything was done legally and appropriately," de Blasio was quoted by ABC7, talking about the allegations against his office.

Store robbery clues: SpongeBob PJs, assault rifle
Authorities seek tips to ID SpongeBob-clad robber
Crime Stoppers and Harris County Sheriff's Office investigators are asking the public to help identify two suspects who last week robbed a store in the 12900 block of Aldine Westfield.
The suspects, one of whom wore yellow cartoon-character SpongeBob SquarePants pajama pants and held a high-powered assault rifle, demanded that two female employees give them cash from the registers and safe around 9:50 a.m. July 3, according to a Crime Stoppers news release.
The suspects, described as black men in their late teens to early 20s, got away with an undisclosed amount of money.
The one holding the assault rifle is also described as about 5-foot-6, weighing 200 to 220 pounds, with short hair and a light complexion. He wore a blue McDonald's work shirt with SpongeBob pants.
The other suspect is described as about 5-foot-4, weighing 140 to 150 pounds, with dreadlocks and dark complexion. He wore a white hooded shirt and black Jordan shorts and shoes.
According to the news release, the women feared they would be sexually assaulted because the suspects made sexual comments and one inappropriately touched one of the women.
Crime Stoppers will pay up to $5,000 for information leading to the suspects' identification, charging or arrest. Call 713-222-8477 (TIPS), visit www.crime-stoppers.org or text TIP610 plus your tip to CRIMES (274637). Tipsters remain anonymous.

I have been noticing my changing relationship to my paintings throughout their creation. So often I will work on a painting for hours and at the end become increasingly irritated with it and leave it be. I am so absorbed in it all I notice is every individual fault; I can't extract myself from it and view it in an objective manner. The next day usually brings the same obsession with each specific problem. I find it incredibly difficult to appreciate the piece as a whole. I then leave the piece for a few days and suddenly my perception shifts; I begin to admire it, even love it. It is as if I am seeing the piece for the first time. And this shifting love-hate polarity is not only in my painting; I notice it throughout my life, in all of my creations, whether they be artistic or otherwise.
To me this changing perception highlights a number of things. Firstly that space and time is incredibly important in the creative process. One must remove oneself from one's creations to gain fresh insight and inspiration. It is sometimes hard to know if a piece is complete until one has had space to contemplate. This shifting perception also highlights the obsessive analytical and critical tendencies of the human mind. It becomes so obsessed with the intricate details of the creation (or life in general) that it loses its connection with the grand picture. We become so trapped within the mundane we lose our connection to the absolute.
One of the techniques I use whilst painting is that of reversing the piece by flipping it upside down, or even just tilting my head and viewing it from below. This reversal seems to trick the mind; it can no longer only see the faults but can see the overall creation.

Janine Stoll Melancholia
Published Feb 08, 2010Toronto, ON's Janine Stoll opts to go sappy over sassy for her third solo effort. The vanguard sound of 2008's How To Have Sex With Canadians (with the DoneFors) gives way to the more emulative fare of Melancholia, evoking the likes of Sarah Harmer, Paula Cole and Jann Arden. Stoll's heart-on-her-sleeve approach to songwriting and her tender, pining voice lend themselves very well to sentimental folk (her music is much too quaint to be categorized as "romantic pop"). She sets up the perfect ambience in which to wallow, whether you're lost in love or out of, or just bored in between. Her titillating high notes and clever melody lines render opening track "Making Plans" absolutely captivating, while "Tumble Down" makes you ache for the fragile soul finding refuge in its verses. It's exactly the kind of single you expect to find playing on chick flicks. For real life episodes or imaginary plot lines, Melancholia is the perfect soundtrack to a broken heart. (Independent)

The Supreme Court has for decades claimed to be the final arbiter of the meaning of the Constitution — asserting a "judicial supremacist" understanding of the Constitution's distribution of interpretive authority among the institutions of government. This claim does not represent the predominant view of the Framers, and it has been contested by leading statesmen since the founding era. James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, and Abraham Lincoln are among the presidents who asserted the coequal authority of the political branches to interpret the Constitution, a position known as "departmentalism."
The growing acceptance of judicial supremacy in the modern era has made it much harder for the political branches to check the Court effectively when it exceeds its authority. A few years after the Supreme Court wrongly held, in 1857, that a congressional prohibition of slavery in the federal territories was unconstitutional, in its infamous Dred Scott decision, the departmentalist Lincoln administration and Republican Congress responded by enacting an even broader prohibition of slavery as an exercise of their independent authority to interpret the Constitution. The political branches, in effect, dared the Court to declare this new legislation invalid, as it had the old — and the Court declined to do so. Today, the political branches are unlikely to assert such robust interpretive authority. They limit themselves to reproving the Court for its wayward decisions and hoping that the appointment of new justices may lead the Court to correct itself.
Even so, the most insidious effect of judicial supremacy's ascendance is not the way it forecloses methods of checking judicial power, but rather the way it obscures the most important reason the political branches have for exercising such checks: defending the Constitution from the Supreme Court. When the Court in its activist decisions usurps the legislative authority to make public policy, it not only misinterprets the Constitution, it violates the Constitution's basic structural principles and contravenes the limits the Constitution places on the judicial branch.
There should be no doubt that the Court is constrained by a wide variety of constitutional limits, just as the political branches are. These constraints apply to the Court's exercise of original jurisdiction, the scope of its subject-matter jurisdiction, its authority to create federal civil and criminal common law, and its power to hear citizen suits against sovereign states. The Constitution also prohibits the Court from issuing advisory opinions — it limits the Court to resolving only true "cases" or "controversies" involving adverse parties. This last constraint implicates the constitutional dimensions of such justiciability doctrines as standing, ripeness, and mootness.
The Supreme Court recognizes these constitutional limits on its power and generally adheres to its understanding of them. Notably, even Marbury v. Madison was a case, most fundamentally, about the constitutional limits that Article III places on the Court's authority. The congressional enactment purporting to confer on the Court a power to issue writs of mandamus in cases of original (as opposed to appellate) jurisdiction was declared unconstitutional in Marbury precisely because, in the Court's view, it would have violated Article III for the Court to exercise original jurisdiction in such cases.
Moreover, there is good reason to believe that the Constitution places implied limits — deriving from its basic structures — on the Court's interpretive authority: As a matter of constitutional design, the exercise of judicial power must not conflict with the rightful exercise of authority by other institutions of government. In particular, traditional understandings of the Constitution's design for government emphasize a sharp separation of powers among the three branches, a broad expanse of reserved power for the 50 states, and wide political discretion in policymaking for democratically representative institutions.
In order to avoid usurping the authority of other institutions of government, judicial power must be exercised in a traditionally restrained fashion, with the Court grounding its decisions firmly in constitutional text, history, and tradition. Thus the Supreme Court's exercise of an expansive or activist power to invalidate laws on controversial policy grounds is properly seen as an arrogation of governmental power in violation of the basic structures of the Constitution. As Justice Black observed in his celebrated dissent in Griswold v. Connecticut:
There is no provision of the Constitution which either expressly or impliedly vests power in this Court to sit as a supervisory agency over acts of duly constituted legislative bodies and set aside their laws because of the Court's belief that the legislative policies adopted are unreasonable, unwise, arbitrary, capricious or irrational. The adoption of such a loose, flexible, uncontrolled standard for holding laws unconstitutional . . . amount[s] to a great unconstitutional shift of power to the courts which I believe and am constrained to say will be bad for the courts and worse for the country. Subjecting federal and state laws to such an unrestrained and unrestrainable judicial control as to the wisdom of legislative enactments would, I fear, jeopardize the separation of governmental powers that the Framers set up and at the same time threaten to take away much of the power of States to govern themselves which the Constitution plainly intended them to have.
The practice of judicial supremacy tends to obscure the fact that the Court violates the Constitution when it exercises expansive judicial power. This is so because the Court's widely accepted role as ultimate interpreter of the Constitution clouds the constitutional status of constraints on the Court's power. Seen through the distorting prism of judicial supremacy, debates about the proper scope of judicial authority under the Constitution proceed as if the question were one of judicial authority over the Constitution — the exercise, in effect, of a "supraconstitutional" judicial power to constitute and reconstitute the substance of the Constitution subject only to perceived political constraints such as respect for the democratic process or the conventions of legal argument.
There are two related reasons for this distortion. First, the Court's claim of interpretive supremacy can easily lead one to assume that the Court is the supreme arbiter of its own authority. The judicial supremacist imagines that the Court, simply by issuing a decision, implicitly affirms the constitutionality of its actions, thereby resolving in its favor the question of whether its decision violates the Constitution. Judicial actors, then, are free to decide whether to interpret the Constitution in a traditional legal fashion or to "interpret" it in an activist manner so as to invade the authority of legislatures. On this view, the Court's exercise of judicial power is inherently self-authorizing: The only constitutional constraints on courts are those that the judicial branch itself articulates and accepts. Significantly, this perspective directs our attention away from a serious discussion of the Constitution's limits on the judiciary by suggesting that any issue of constitutional limits is to be resolved exclusively by judges.
Second, the judicial-supremacist view casts the Court as the institutional protector of the Constitution and other governmental actors as potential violators of it. This conception of the judiciary's role is self-reinforcing (and misleadingly so), because the combination of the Court's privileged position over political actors and its institutional self-interest in expanding its power leads it systematically to ignore its own constitutional violations and exaggerate the violations of other political actors. Indeed, when the Court seizes policymaking authority from legislatures, in violation of the Constitution, it articulates its violation as a supremacist vindication of the Constitution — as the judicial invalidation of allegedly unconstitutional legislative action. Thus the judicial-supremacist perspective directs our attention away from the constitutional limits on judicial power and toward the constitutional limits on everyone else.
In short, the lens of judicial supremacy keeps judicial constitutional violations out of focus.
These points explain how the practice of judicial supremacy has distorted our legal intuitions, but they present no substantive legal obstacle to recognition of judicial constitutional violations. As discussed, the Constitution plainly limits the Supreme Court's power, and the Court's exercise of expansive judicial power violates the traditional understanding of the Constitution's structures. Moreover, as a matter of both constitutional supremacy and checks and balances, no institution of government should be thought to have the power unilaterally to "authorize" its actions if they violate the Constitution. In our system of government, it is the Constitution itself, not the Court, that establishes the supreme law of the land.
Even so, the subtle influences of judicial-supremacist thought continue to pervade constitutional debate today. Too often, even advocates of judicial restraint understate their objections to judicial activism, using the soft and imprecise rhetoric of "imprudence" and "illegitimacy." But the Court's activist rulings in such decisions as Lochner v. New York and Roe v. Wade are not merely extravagant exercises of judicial power or dubious ascriptions of constitutional meaning out of step with traditional standards of constitutional interpretation. Such decisions usurp legislative power in violation of the fundamental structures of the Constitution. The central objection to such actions by the Court is that they violate the Constitution.
Proper articulation of judicial activism's constitutional infirmities is a necessary precondition of building political support for defending the Constitution from the Court. The political branches have the ultimate power and responsibility to resist unconstitutional judicial encroachments on federal and state legislative authority. Just as war is too important to be left solely to generals, the Constitution is too important to be left solely to judges. That was the belief of the founding generation, and time has proven them right.

Besides the brilliant work of Staunton, the rest of the main cast that has grown with the series did tremendous jobs though Emma Watson seemed to particularly stand out in every scene she was in. The older members of the cast, including those from previous films that returned in this film, did well as could be expected with the roles they were given in this particular film. Michael Gambon's Dumbledore doesn't look as impressive in action as the character is written in Rowling's book, which I fault film's writers and director instead of the actor. Gary Oldman's Sirius Black hits all the right notes throughout the film so as to make his exit all the more impactful.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Film)
The film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the fifth in the franchise, brings darker themes to film that were prominent in the book to life both in and around Hogwarts as well as the wizarding world at large.
As with the last two films, "Order of the Phoenix" was boiled down to the essential plot and foreshadowing elements needed for future films. Unlike its immediate predecessor the film "Order of the Phoenix" was almost as well done as "Prisoner of Azkaban" with only minor transitions and plot tent poles either mishandled or poorly represented. The bureaucratic terror inflicted upon Hogwarts by Dolores Umbridge, brilliantly played by Imelda Staunton, is well handled as well as the subplot of Dumbledore's Army along with its discovery. The climactic battle within the Ministry was a mixture of more good than bad, however there were elements that hurt the over presentation that hurt the overall product, namely how much weaker Dumbledore appeared during his duel with Voldemort.
The fifth installment of the Harry Potter franchise is a pretty good film, although it stumbles here and there it is clearly a step above "Goblet of Fire". The darker themes present in "Order of the Phoenix" herald the trouble ahead mirroring the book in a very good adaptation of the book making this film deserving of its 4-star rating.

MHS Homecoming
Dear Editor:
I am writing to encourage every member in this community to support the Meeker Cowboys in their homecoming football game against Paonia this Friday night. Kickoff is at 7 p.m. at Starbuck Stadium.
The Cowboys are coming off a very impressive road win last Friday, beating Lake County 21-6 in Leadville in our first conference game. The game against Paonia is very crucial and our team needs all the support we can get. These young men have worked extremely hard over the past few months and we need to let them hear us this Friday night.
So I ask all of you in this community — parents, students, teachers, former Cowboy athletes (I know there are a lot of you out there), friends, relatives, business owners — everybody. Let's pack Starbuck Stadium this Friday night! I don't want to see one empty seat! Support this team from the opening kickoff until the final whistle of the game. Bring your blankets and friends and get ready for an amazing game! We have some absolutely incredible athletes this year, and I guarantee they will put on a show for you.
I would like to personally thank every business and community member who supported the Cowboy Kickoff Classic this year. We could not have done it without you. Thank you to everyone who has supported the football program up to this point. Get ready for an amazing game! Go Cowboys!

The Fair Tax
Dear Editor:
There is one thing that would, for certain, jump start the U.S. economy and create many jobs. Expect career politicians and congressional lobbyists to resist it mightily. The reason: its adoption would adversely affect all their pocketbooks and seriously diminish Congress's power over and control of American citizens. It's called The Fair Tax.
The Fair Tax is a "consumption" tax; a national sales tax. The IRS would be annihilated; nobody pays income tax anymore and no payroll taxes paid by businesses or employees. Every earner keeps all they have earned! The price of all American made goods would drop by an estimated 22 percent. That is the figure researchers estimate the income tax and the payroll taxes add to the cost of everything produced in America.
The national sales tax rate would be 23 percent. So there's no increase in cost-of-living for Americans.
But economists estimate that in the first year after the Fair Tax becomes law, the economy will grow more than 10 percent, exports will grow by 26 percent and capital spending will increase over 70 percent. There are many additional advantages of the Fair Tax!
Read The Fair Tax Book to learn much more. Then ask your congressional candidates about The FairTax and insist they support it!

Martyn and Steffi are two producers who we have had a lot of respect for here. They have been working together under the Doms & Deykers name for a short while now and this is their first LP and it was a definite insta-buy for me.
Evidence from a Good Source is packed with supremely crafted Techno music. A complex mix of analogue drum machines, beefy mixdowns and more exotic textures and tones, this is an exercise in pushing the sound forward whilst keeping the core of what it is all about. The album serves the dancefloor, there is little on it that isn't intended for the clubs but that takes away no beauty from it. Interesting and catchy synthwork, infection basslines and trippy soundscapes mesh in an LP that gives a nod to what the music has always been about. but is in no way classic sounding.
A bang up to date album that knows what it is trying to do.
They also have an AMA over on Gearslutz RIGHT now for all you guys into production.
